DEMOCRACY AND PROTECTION.

The San Saba News says: ~Of
course. all good democrats in Texas
viii stand squarely on the tariff plank
OF the Texas democracy, as promul-
gated at Galveston last week" Ave,
there's the rub. There are many good
democrats in Texas who do not believe
in protection in any shape, form or
fashion. and while these will not
fight the platform nor the candidates
in the present campaign, they will
probably remain true to their convic-
lions and when the time comes to
make another platform they viii con
tend earnestly for the faith once de-
livered unto the saints" If protec-
tionism is to be part of the demo
cratic creed. these men will not care

THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

The emperor of Germany says he
holds his commission direct from
Heaven, and that constitutions, parla-
ments and plebiscites have nothing to
do with 1t. Colonel Roosevelt seems
Ito have similar notion in regard to
his relation to the American people
Nobody can read his recent utterances
without being more than ever i'm
pressed with the exaggerated ego that
possesses him.-Bryan Eagle
Let us be fair; also accurate Colo
mel Roosevelt's speech al Osawatomie
was certainly one of the most incisive.
forcible, compact and thoroughly in
tellectual addresses delivered to the
American people in a decatle. There
was not one line of intemperance In
1t; not one threat. not gloat nor a
brag nor a def. But there was on
every sentence the breath of life. the
evidence of sincerity, the insignia of
dignity and the force of logic With
out oratory. without any effort at dra-
he put into words the ideals
of twentieth century statesman So
licitous for tho prosperity of his coun-
try and the welfare of its citizens of /
every class and station.-Galvesto ,

II The Eagle is ever unjust, it Is /
IN error of the head, not of the heart.
Colonel Roosevelt has some admirable
qualities. but his faults are even more
conspicuous. His is a picturesque but
lot a beautiful character. That he
has courage no one doubts. and that (
lie takes himself altogether seriously
s also unquestionable If he were as
lonest as he vaunts himself he would I,
i've Mr.. Bryan credit for the author
nip of nearly every one of the poll
les he advocates and claims as his
wn. But he is so possessed with the
vii spirit of egotism that it is posi-
lie he really believes they are his
wn. If there Is a new thought In
u that he has ever said, il has es-
aped our observation. yet he has a
'ay of saying trite things as If they !,

ton of the sttae has always been
treated<like a step-child.

Every man has the inalienable right
to the opportunity to earn his living,
and condition of things that gives
a few men the power TO take away
from him this opportunity is a wrong
condition. A government that permits
a set of men to get such control over
the business of the country that they
can throw hundreds of thousands OF
men out OF employment and bring
them and their families to starvation
is nor a just government.

So they won't And the avalanche
that will hurl them into the ranks of
republicanism is forming even now.
Party names and traditions. after all,
are but ornaments of tinfoil to sens-
BILE men. And what are the traditions
of the democratic party of Texas :?
Surely its more recent traditions are
nothing to be proud of. seeing that
they are naught but Campbellism and
demagoguery. Traditions, forsooth,
Democrats in this or any other state
