TEXAS, IN convention at Ft. Worth
on last Thursday, sent an excellent
delegation headed by Hon. j. w.
Throckmorton, to the National Dem
ocratic Convention. Prominent
among the delegation are Hons. d. C.
Giddings, of Brennan, Horace Chill
ton Tyler, Henry w. Lightf0ot, OF
Paris, r. L. Lusk, of Brennan, j. w.
Robertson, of Austin, and w. H.
Pope of Marshall. We predict
right here, that no State in the
Union can show better quail
fed, or more talented delegation in
the great gathering of intellect and
political sagacity, than will the Lone
Star. Throckmorton, the gallant old
democrat who being elected gov
ernor in 1866, was reconstructed
out by the radicals, and fought them
to the bitter end; Giddings who at
tended Mason and Slldell to Europe
during the late war; Perkins the
greatest man in Texas of his age,
and Henry w. Llghtfoot of Paris,
the silver.to ngued orator ofthe south,
are men of whom our sister may well
feel proud. We hope that Arkansas
will follow in the wake of Tex.
as by heading our delegation
with NJ. ii. Ssndells of TT Smith fol
lowing with the gifted George w.
Carruth OF Little Rock, and the bril-
liant young Atkinson of Nevada,
with many others whose ability will
place Arkansas side by side with the
proudest states in the Uuion.

The Withdrawals of Col. +. b.
Moore and Maj. L. B. Martin as can
didates for the offices of secretary OF
state and attorney general, respect
lively, were among the political SEN
satIons Of the past week. The former
was induced to this course because
Washington, his home county, failed
to instruct for him and sent a delega
tion instructed for Black, his CON-
petitor. Maj. Martin assigns as the
reason for his withdrawal the same
cause and charges that by certain
methods of unfair selfishness and
questionable propriety the delegates
of Pulaski county go to the State
convention so instructed as to enable
them to, and some of them for the
avowed purpose Of trading the vote
of the county, or at least part of it,
as to disregard the will Of the voters,
and ignore his rights and those of
others, for the sole purpose of put
ting at the head of the state ticket
John G. Fletcher. All of which
goes to illustrate the uncertainty OF
politics and the questionable means
frequently used to compass certain
ends by politicians INSCRIPTIONS
enough to resort to anything. 1t is
wrong, it is not right, and certainly
will react up the heads of all impli-
Gated in such a disreputable scheme.

Europe fifty years ago. The Sirius

CoNcREss has been 50 lavish IN
it's appropriations that pensioners
upon the government are becoming
holder and bolder in their demands.
A scheme is now on foot, it is stat,
ed, for the government to give 70
each ex-soldier quarter section Of
land, lay it out and construct the
highways, build the school houses,
erect for each a dwelling house, pro
vide him With certain, agricultural
implements, etc. 1t is presumed
from this that the soldiers begin to
think that perhaps the pension
business has been worked for all
that can be gotten out of it, hence
this new scheme for rewarding pa
triotisln. OF course, a man who
will suggest that perhaps the yete-
rams are crowding the cattle some
what, will be denounced as lacking
in every sense OF justice and pa
triotism, and as being little else
than an ayowed traitor to bis coun-
try; and party which intimates its
belief that justice to others than
those Who wore the blue might pos
sibIy suggest that this last demand
on the nations generosity is in the
nature of hoggishness and will be
promptly repudiated by the "sol-
der vote" Politicians and people
have been so often threatened with
annihilation and charged with in
gratitude when they have mildly
suggested the bare possibility Of the
defenders Of the Union being in the
least degree greedy, that perhaps
this latest demand for more will not
be opposed; but we are inclined to
believe that some will find the cour-
age to ask If this sort of thing hasn' t
gone about far enough. There is
such a thing as riding free horse
to death, and it begins to look as i
q certain class OF soldiers were try
ing it on now.

IT is said that never before was
the bushes of Congress so back
ward as it is this year; the present
outlook is that the session will be
protracted through the entire sum-
MGR. None of the important APP
preparation bills has been reported,
and work on some of them in the
committee has not yet begun The
fact is Congress has grown to such
proportions that it is uuwieldly. 1t
cannot dispatch business as it could
If the membership were half what it
is. With over four hundred MEM
bers, and rules so complicated that
comparatively few ever understand
them, progress is necessarily slow.
Added to this the fact that politics
is forced into all legislation, the
Congressman being partisan politi-
clans rather than statesmen, the
wonder is that any law.making is
ever accomplished. At the next
census the apportioament should be
such as to reduce the membership
one.half, and thus bring Congress
down to the dimensions of work
