The one thing noticeable about
the new tariff bill is it's Internal
inequalities. While 1t is an excep-
tionally good bill in some of its
protective features it is absolutely
destructive of some of the most i'm
portant of the national industries.
1t is noted above all else for it's in.
consistency. 1t denies in its work
all that the party affirmed in its
platforms, and affirms the value of
a.protective principle that it was
pledged to root out, in the name of
tariff reform.

The cry is made at Dallas that it
is the business of that convention
to adapt itself to the wishes of the
party in the state and have no re-
gard for the general sentiment OF
the party as it will be voiced in
the National convention. There is
some sense in this demand, for the
state convention is simply the ex.
ponent of the state Democracy and
not of the views Of the National
gathering. When the National
convention meets it will then know
what Texas and all the other states
think, democratically, and the Ma
tional platform will be framed in
the light of these several state de-
clarations. If the Texas body can
tell what the voter in this state
thinks it will be a dandy.

tariff bill does not represent the
views of a dozen Democrats in
either house of the National Con-
gress, and that it does not repre-
s9ntIthe views of the President, but
in obedience to the coercion Of cir
cumstance and the plea of party
necessity it is forced upon a coun-
try as unwilling to receive it as
the president is to sign it. This is
tariff reform.

The carrying of the sewer bond
proposition does not obviate the
necessitate of clean streets and
the drainage Of the hundred and
ten sink holes in the heart of the
city into which the surface water
runs after every rain, to remain
there and tester and breed corrup-
ton in the sun. There is not one
matter connected with the health
of this city more pressing than
this same matter of surface drain
age and yet the council seem to
have the lockjaw in the matter.
There is death in the pools.

Paddock Of Fort Worth is not a
Hogg man, but he Is ready to go
the whole hog in Cleveland en-
dOrsement, as he says from Maria
Halpin to date. That covers the
ground, but Paddock should have
waited until the Presidential hand
had written its veto on the Senate's
tariff bill.

There is a straight out directness
about Lanham's talk that shows
the innate worth and ingram
honesty Of the men. His speech is
forcible and in marked contrast
with the weak nothingness of Rea-
gan's deliverances. There is ma
turity of thought, a clearnees of
conviction, an individualism of
view about the man that COM
mands respect for itself, outside of
any party endorsement. Such a
man would be a particular boon to
the Democracy of Texas at this
juncture Of affairs.

THURSDAY, AUGUST Is, 1894,

The Republican party has drawn
the color line to it's own detriment.
Now let it leave the colored man
to work out his own political saliva
ton in his own way and attend to
the business Of building itself up
in this state. Let it leave alone
the things that weaken and stand
by all that strengthens and it will
soon be on it's feet and kicking.
Let the brains, not the bosses of
the party be heard in the future
and the Republicans OF Texas will
soon appear in the field as an army
with banners. Its principles are
approved, let it quit monkeying
solely for federal pap and shut
down on the old barnacles that
have befOuled the ship for a quar-
ter century, no matter whether
they are white, black, yellow or
tan. There are men enough in the
party to make such a showing as
to alarm that 100000 majority and
make the Democracy of the state
look to it's candidates. There are
brains enough in the party to block
out state policy and present it to
the people in such a way as to
command the support Of the great
masses of them. There ought to
be honesty and horse sense enough
in the party, combined with a just
Indignation against those who
have made merchandise Of it's
interests for these many years, to
take a new departure with all
these old barnacles scraped Off.

the bill, although he has inter.

Let the free sugar bill pass and
the Republicans are much better
pleased with the outcome than
they would have been with the bill
as it passed the hands of the House.
The freetrader has little to con-
graduate himself upon in the out

and worry of Congress.

What will the Senate do with
