WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.

Beeville Picayune: "The trouble
with the Democratic party is, its
members can't think alike. The
ass and the OK are two patent and
useful animals, but they don't work
well together-the Democratic par
ty should swap its asses for oxen :;
or If it's members were all asses it
might be still better for the party"
"The Democratic party Of Texas
is a regular Esau-every mans
hand is against it, because it sold
it's birth-right for mess of John
Sherman pottage."
"The individual members of the
Democratic party are so divided
and each has said so many mean
things, and criticized the other so
numerically that little is left for
an outsider to say"
"The Republicans demand
force bilP to authorize the use Of
the troops at the polls. The DEM
ocrats repealed it because their
President assumes the authority to
use troops without law when and
where he pleases."
There is a split in the Texas De-
mocracy and tbs now thought that
there will be "split" in Charlie
Culberson if he persists in the diff
ficult feat of riding the Democratic
horse and the corporation trick
mule both at the same time"
Baird Star: "The mint at New
Orleans has coined over one and a
half million dollars since July 16
last. Notwithstanding the Popu-
list assert that only 406 silver dol
lars have been coined this year.
We will pay one hundred dollars
cash to any Populist, or any one
else, who will prove that we have
not stated the truth. Put up or
shut up"
Houston Post: "a Galveston
News correspondent in Congress-
man Savers district, writes the ex-
traordinary statement that the
Populists have a barrel of money,
and it is open at both ends
1t is hardly credible that the
statement is true. II money is be-
ing spent to any unusual extent,
and in any such way as is intimat-
ed, then 1t may be set down that it
comes from outside Of Texas, and
follow as a necessary conclusion
that whoever is using money to de-
feat Sayers has a grievance and
that grievance is bound to be on
account of some cutting down Of
appropriation committee in the last
Congress. Let the friends of Say
ers look to this and let all frie nds
OF honest government rally to his
support as they never did before"
Ell Paso Herald: of the Times
wishes good government in FL Paso
county and city it must fall in line
with the Herald and demand of
the Republican party Republican
methods. The Democratic party
in this neck Of the woods is too cor
rupt for anything good to be ex-
pected OF them"
Canton TEX Telephone: snake
1T rule to pay for your county
paper once year. Always pay in
advance and you will find you will
feel better and enjoy reading the
paper much more than when YOU
read on credit. Try it and see.
Brenham Banner: "a Baptist
convention has been in session at
Marshall, Texas, recently and some
burglar or burglars got in their
work on some Of the preachers
Slipping into the rooms where the
divines were stopping, the thieves
went through their pockets, taking
money, watches and whatever else
Of value they could find. Those
are low-down thieves - when il
comes to robbing a lot of Baptist
preachers Might as we'll expect t.
make a profitable raid on newspa
