SAN ANTONIO is IN 1T.

San Antonio continues to maintain
her supremacy as the boss convention
city of the state. Every assembly
within her limits is made the &C.
casion of most outspoken apprecia-
ton of her generosity and cordiality
as a city, while the beauty of her
location, the extent of her improve
ments, the metropolitan nature of
her business are matters of ceaseiess
sstonishment. The fact is, tht
other cities of the state, with less
than one half of her claims to con-
sideration, has so perpetually boom
ed their attractions that to those un-
acquainted with San Antonio, she
has been written down as among the
number of those who are only great
on paper. So much has been said
dsrogotory to her business, her COM
mercial Importance, her industrial
enterprise, her energy and her pros.
pective development, that the gem
eral impression mas Deen tnaG u Is
great only in her historical quaint
ness and in a certain metropolitan
ism. of character. With the last few
years these impressions are being re-
moved. San Antonio is being &C.
cePted at her real value as the most
important commercial centre of the
state. A city from her position des-
tined to command a larger trade than
any OF her rivals, and with q thous.
and n attractions to which they
can lay no claims, she fronts the fu-
ture with the certainty of ~distancing
all her competitors. in the race for
wealth and population.

THE weekly press Of the state
is citing attention to the fact
that the daily press opposes
Hogg's election; also that they op.
posed his election two years ago and
that no governor ever received such a
majority In any election in the state.
All this may be true, but it is equally
true that lightning seldom strikes the
same man twice.

THIS split in the rank of the demo-
cratic party in Texas, is simply a
fight of the democracy against itself.
1t is not a protest of the third party
against the democracy, neither is it a
quarrel Of the democracy with the
third party. 1t is an srraignment of
the democratic ms by the democratic
outs, and an assault upon the meas
ures Of the democratic administration
by some of the strongest men within
the party lines. The only interest
the republicans have in the fight is in
the foriorn hope that it affords of
each faction playing the role of XII.
