Successful Candidates.

Successful Candidates.

some, read section I, article XVI, OF
our state constitution, and particular
Iy that part that requires this part OF
the oath of office: And 1 Furthermore
soIemnly swear Tor affirm) that have
not directly, nor indirectly, paid, Of
fered or promised to pay, contributed
nor promised to contribute, any
money or valuable thing, or promised
any public office or employ ment as a
reward for the giving or Withholding
a vote at the election at which l was
elected. So help me God. Now, it
is we'll known that q Bexar county
candidate places more implicit trust
in a corruption fund than the aid of
God Almighty. For years and years
the same men used the same means to
perpetuate their power, threw sand
in the eyes of a credulous public, but
the taxpaying citizen of this city and
county are awaking from their lethar'
gic slumber and honesty and purity,
will be demanded where fraud and
corruption prevailed before. Beware
before you commit perjury; 1t is a
crime on our statute books and may ?
be enforced.

wide in the narrowest places, but winds and twists in such 6 way that at times c view of the entire state seems spread be- fore us, while at other times nothing can be seen except the forward part of the burro as we sit on the quarter deck part.
 Owing to the idiosyncrasies of the mo- tive power our progress is not very rapid, still we make some headwsy and seem to be really getting up in the world. When suddenly" as the story writers say, we hear something, not exactly drop, but 1t seems to be dropping our way. We are in a narrow place; on one hand 6 wall of rock, on the other dizzy precipice. There is no time or opportunity for retreat Our hat rises of our head, for coming around the bend we see. We don't see much, for our burro makes 6 curious motion. and when we light, which we do very soon and very hard, we find ourselves lodged in the most uncomfortable manner in a thorny mesquite bush which over hangs the valley below.
 1t is not a pleasant location; to look down makes our head swim; to look to- wards the trail makes us unhappy, for there, disputing our passage in that direc- tion, lies in fearful coil, and with dread ful buzzing tail, crotalus horridus.
 As We pensively gaze down the noun tain side we see the cause of our ship wreck; an enormously fat man riding in 6 two-wheeled cart of such narrow gauge that he seems to fill the entire space be- tween the cycles. But another object meets our eyes-our burro. We hardly recognize him of such cerulean hue is he. The paint intended for 6 better use has al- most ruined his complexion, and worse than all, has made him too sticky to ride upon. either fore or aft. Consequently we lead him home.
 Better luck next time"
