The Laredo Times of last Tues
day evening, in its election, news,
had the following:
"THEFT'' AT BROWNSVILLE.
A rumor was ahoat this afternoon
that C. H. Maris, the Republican
leader in Brownsville had in pri-
vate telegram to some one in this
city, stated they were unable to Sc
cure representation at the polls and
that the Democrats were simply
stealing Brownsville from them.
The Times has done the people
of Brownsville a favor in letting
them know of this unwarrantable
SANDER against them by one who
owes whatever prominence he now
boasts of to these people. The fact
is, that there never was a fairer
election held in Brownsville than
that of last Tuesday. The republi-
cans did have representation at
eyery4yoting place in the city, and
all fair-minded republicans here
acknowledge that it was fair de-
feat. Mr.. Maris doubtless felt that
some explanation was due the re-
pubhcans of other parts of the dis
trict for the big democratic gains in
this county, after his assurance
that he would surely carry the
county for Scott, and so accused
the democrats of cheating.
The secret of the close fight of two
years ago, when the republicans
carried Brownsville by b majority
and reduced the democratic major
ity in the county to 50, was explain
ed in THE HERALD last year, but

SENATOR SPooNER of Wisconsin
sounds a most significant warning
to the people OF the United States
a warning which both republicans
and democrats should bear con-
stantIv in mind-when he declares
publicly that the nation should
elect a republican for president and
a republican congress 'for a term
of twenty years. Senator Spooner
is one of the most influential men
of the republican party. When he
openly declares in favor of a virtual
revocation of the right of the peo-
pie to have voice in the govern
ment for a term of twenty years,
he shows a trend of sentiment in
his party which is exceedingly dan
gerous, which may threaten the
liberty Of the people. Apparently
the Constitution which was framed
and adopted by the intellectual
giants who founded this govern
ment, and under which the nation
has waxed so great and powerful,
has grown too old fashioned to suit
Senator Spooner and those who
think like him. The people should
bear in mind what ideas this leader
of republican thought is sewing
Wisconsin should baware of this
man who thus openly endorses an
imperialistic form of government.

IF THE Democracy are defeated
in the Fifteenth district they will
hire a hole for Chairman Wells and
tell him to crawl in.-San Antonio
Light, Nov. 3.
The hole is still vacant, but it
can doubtless be had cheap enough
for the Light and the other enemies
of Chairman Wells to crawl into
and hide themselves. There is room
in very small hole to accommodate
a great many of their calibre.
