FUTURE STATE LEGISLATION.

For the enactment of such laws as shall
restrict freight charges of railroads and
express companies and prevent unjust
against any points within
the state, and for the defining of pools,
trusts and all illegal combinations in
restraint of Legitimate trade and the i'm
posing of severe penalties thereto; for the
enactment of prudent and efficient
mining and irrigation laws, and for such
Legislative action as will aid in securing
permanent deep water upon the coast of
Texas. The democracy of this state,
through its platform adopted at Dallas
last August, and which has been affirmed
and endorsed by democratic speakers
and candidates during the recent canvass,
is thoroughly committed, and for the
earnest and faithful fulfllment of such
wholesome legislation, the democratic
Legislature, which will assemble in Austin
next January, is pledged.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1888-11-15

fested by elements antagonistic so far as
the tariff is concerned, to the interests of
the people, nor is this, by long odds, its
worst disaster. In this government it has
wsged the fight in behalf of the people
since the days of Andrew Jackson, some
times in power, sometimes as now van
ouished, but rising from defeat to again
enter the lists. We did not elect Cleveland
president, and possibly have lost control
in the house of representatives, for the
present, but we are still a great party and
more than half the people of the United
States are with US. Those who fancy
the democratic party dead, know little of
political science nor of the principles IN
DERIVING the party which are as indie
structible as human nature itself.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1888-11-15
WHY WE LOST.
[ SEAL !

For the next week or two the democrat
10 papers will be filed with dissertations
on the causes of our defeat. This is some
thing like discussing the patients symp-
toms after heis dead. Nevertheless the
philosophy of the events OF last week
should not be lost upon the democrats,
nor should we fail to mark on the chart
the rocks upon which we have so recently
drifted, and of which we must steer clear
in the future.
There are those who sscribe Cleveland's
overthrow to the tariff question, and that
alone.
There we're other influences at work
sufficient to account for the republican
gaifis. One of these was the presidents
pension policy, which did not suit many
of the voters of the north and west.
Again, the sentiment stirred up among
the old soldiers by the flag incident,
while the horde of Office seekers barred
from the public crib by civil service, men
who are willing to hurrah ana shout for
either side that promises them chance
at the public teat; men who had nothing
to hope for from Cleveland, naturally
wanted a change, and their votes and
influence were cast to that end.
Then, it Is undeniable that Cleveland
with the true greatness and moral courage
that have distinguished him-had offended
q considerable section of his own party
who became Disguised at his appointment
of republicans to office, while his own
friends were left out in the cold. This
created a lukewarmness among portion
of the democratic party in the first year
of the administration, and the effect has
never been eradioated.
Then there was the same old rumpus
between Tammany and the county demo-
crscy of New York city-between Hewitt
and Grant. All these things put together
told on election day.
In fact, we can see now, but could not
and did not before, that in politics it is a
dangerous thing to run a man with
boldly defined, we'll pronounced record,
and who, in the course of four years adj
ministration, has had opportunities of
making powerful enemies and arraying
against him factions that might Fave
been dormant, had our candidate been
without record, and taken from some
obscure corner of the country.
But no theorizing can DOW do away
with the fact that we have lost, or that
for the present at least, the government
is completely under the control of the
same party that accepted the vanquished
sword of the south at Appomattox
quarter of a century ago.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1888-11-15
A CHANGE ORDERED.

The Sins" will soon be the "outs"-a
striking illustration of the ups" and
"downs" of life; in the present instance
the democrats for the most part figuring
in the role of the "downed." We have had
onr turn at the bat, but some of the nine
allege that the captain in hitting for a
home run knocked the ball over the fence
and twas lost. At all events the game has
been broken up.
We have had four years of prosperous
democratic interregnum; be the reason
what it may the people have seen fit to re-
turn the republicans to power, and APP
pearances would indicate that that party
will have control of both houses of con-
gress as well as the executive Office of the
government.
This will give them full long rope to
work out our nations salvation. We be-
lieye General Harrison to be conserva-
tive man of no extraordinary ability, but
a good lawyer, of practical judgment and
excellent moral reputation. Disassociated
from Blaine and his ilk, from among
whom may the nation be spared the
selection of his cabinet officers, we belle We
General Harrison will give us clean and
good administration. At all events 1t
seems it is for him and his party
now to say whether this shall be
so. The reins and whip will
soon be in their hands-the steeds
require careful handling. 1t is but natural
that feeling at this time should be at high
pitch, but long before the 4th of March
rolls around the nation will have settled
back into its wonted composure and Mr.
Harrison will commence his administra
ton with the most favorable wind driving
on the ship of state, and tits for him to
steer the vessel in a true and straight
course. There are many sunken rocks
many shoals to be avoided.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1888-11-15

The Hon. Joseph D. Sayers' majority in
the district will not fall below twelve
thousand five hundred, and may possibly
reach fourteen thousand. The smaller
figure will be three thousand larger than
his majority in 1884 when Judge Rector
made such an able and thorough canvass
against him. The vote of 1856 cannot be
taken as a standard for the election of
this year, as Mr.. Newcomb, the opponent
of Mr.. Sayers at that time, did not carry
the full vote of his party. This year the
Issue was clean cut and clearly defined,
and the victory Mr.. Sayers has now won
is alike creditsble to him, his splendid
record and the appreciation of a con-
stituency that honor him for his whole
souled devotion to their interests and the
distinction he has won in congress.
