THE Times of this city says with a
far-away-sob in its voice:
With some reluctance, it must be
confessed that this country has passed
under the sway of the republican
party.
The reluctance was not visible at
Washington, judging from all ac-
counts. The nation seemed to be on
hand with a greater body of enthusi-
astic witnesses than ever assembled
on similar occasion. The reluctance
will have to be borne with for de-
cade or two at least.
THE Sherman Register covers
very large acreage of municipal terri
tory when 1t remarks:
The sidewalk law of Sherman is
more of dead letter than it is any
where else in the state of Texas.
The Register man is kindly invited
to visit San Antonio, read her ordi-
nances regulating sidewalks, run
over the city and note how utterly
disreg arded they are and then make
an exception in favor of this city.
Sidewalk ordinances may be a dead
letter in Sherman; they ale a whole
dead volume in San Antonio.
PRESIDENT HARRISON'S assump-
ton that in the inauguration cere-
monies there is mutual covenant
between people and president, does
not appear to suit the democratic
critics. These gentlemen prefer an in
depreciation or the ceremonial that
binds the president only and leaves
the people free to obey or disobey,
violate or honor their citizen obliga-
tiOnS. All the same these cOnstitu-
tional obligations will be looked after
and obedience to law even in matters
of voting will be enforced.
1T remains for the Paris News, and
no other journal in Texas would stoop
so low, it remains for the Paris News
to say concerning the president of this
nation:
"Mr. Ben. Harrison is in Washing
ton City with a view to taking up his
residence there. 1t is thought that
he will occupy the same house that
Mr.. Grover Cleveland has been using
for the past four years, unless some
Guiteau removes him in the next few
days"
Two republican presidents having
been removed by assassination the
News seems anxious to chronicle
third. 1t will be disappointed. Four

have convened the people that re-
publican government pans out best,

is one of the very fine arts. 1t is pos
sesssd by the Navasota Tablet in no
limited measure, as witness this:
Secretary Bayard deserves praise
for the way he managed the Samoan
trouble. Some hot headed men would
have plunged our country into a
bloody war with Germany, but as it
is, Bayard has gained his points and
preserved the peace"
VIII the Tablet seize it's stylus and
inform the ong-suffering and patient
walters for word of Samoan comfort
just what Bayard's points were, and
how Uncle Sam has in any way been
a gamer thereby?
THE LIGHT has frequently taken
occasion to express it's opinions con-
corning the evils of the detective sys-
tenn of this country and has argued
against its legality and it's utility as a
minister of justice. This view is
gaining ground. Some of the legisla-
lures have taken very strong ground
and passed prohibitive acts against
che professional private detective in
general and the Pinkerton thugs in
particular. Rev. DR.. Williams, of
Chicago, has recently put himself on
record on this subject, and in mis- re-
marks at the funeral of Chicago
brakeman who died in Joliet prison
while serving sentence passed upon
testimony of detectives, that clergy
man said:
ave believe Newton Watt jnno-
cent. His accusers were almost all
either professional criminals or pro-
fessiOnal detectives, and 1 consider
the two terms very nearly synony-
nous. Testimony of one or both
kinds would not shake my confidence
in an upright character. A man who |
will lie at one time for any purpose
will lie whenever it may suit his con-
venience. The reward offered in this |
case was enough to convict any one |
whom the detectives might select"
There is a world of sound sense and |
very painful truths embraced in DR.. |
Williams statements. The ends of
justice are not subserved by the de-
tectve system, far otherwise. The
whole thing is dangerous in the eX-
IRENE and menace to the peace and
security of society. Congress could
do no better than declare the whole
system illegal, as opposed to the
spirit of our constitutions.
