Thoughts for the Hour.

ED. FREE PRESS IF it be not below the
dignity of the columns of your paper we
wish to talk few minutes through the same
about subject worthy our candid consid-
Grafton. We have reference to our cleo
tons, the mOdsls Opera'ldt Now do not be-
como alarmed. Let us define our position.
We believe the true spirit of our govern
ment advances the idea of letting the office
seek the man, and not the man the office.
Let us say that we are not making charges
against auy one, candidate elect or candi-
date defeated Such is not the design or
! spirit of this letter. And furthermore we
do not believe that the aspiring parties for
Office are always responsible for the
"cliques,' combinations, p" "rings," "whis-
XIV circles" etc. These things originate in
the hearts of individuals who have no great
love for the candidate they espouse or any
great love for the good of the country
Those things seem to originate from the
same spirit that back-biting, contention,
sedition, party strife and some other little
sins, envy, hatred and malice arise. Taking
this view of the subject it leads one to
think that we are very much depraved, and
such state of things must be exceedingly re-
pugnant to the taste of modest man.
We believe the candid, observant mind
will bear US out in the statement that our
elections are not controlled by the ballots
of the sober-thinking class of people, who
vote conscientiously, independent of party
affiliations.
There is another evil, and the people are
to blame, and that is, to expect the candi-
dates to treat and be liberal during his can
vass Now, look here, my friend, suppose
this liberal candidate gets beat? Who will
be the real sufferer May not this candi-
date have wife and children at home who
are really in need of the money he is spend
ing for drinks and cigars to satiate your de-
PRAYED appetite and intellect
We hope the day is not far distant (but
the signs indicate otherwise) when we can
go to the polls and vote a conscientious
ticket, without whisky, and without SO
much conspicuousness on the part of some
of different races, with handful Of tickets,
calling out: "Who voted him2" and receiv-
ing in response, 81 voted him."

Tho following, which we End in an eI
change, would seem to challenge the atten'

system:
The question is daily forced upon heads
of families, are not our public schools I'M

who generally have the largest number Of
children 10 educate. the change Of one text

which they do not feel able 10 meet. IL
the range Of textbooks could be definitely
fixed one set Of books might be made to do
service for several children as they were
promoted from grade to grade. Why have
the states and pencils of former days fallen
into disreputey It is scarcely probable that
the children Of to-day viii achieve much
more han did those who formerly used
them 20 so much profit; not less than 20
cents and frequently more, Is used each

1t is with more of regret than surprise
that we learn of the determination of our
young friend above named to remove from
San Antonio to Los Angeles, CAL, as per-
manent home. He was fairly captivated by
the latter city and its climate on recent
visit, and considerations of health and other
grounds of preference have decided him to
return there permanently. Mr.. Hunter is
native of our county, studied his profession
of the law with distinguished firm at San
Antonio, and graduated with honor at the
University of Virginia. He is young gen.
tleman Of fine ability and popular manners.
We cordially JON with his hosts of friends
in wishing him restored health and the
greatest success and happiness in the home
