Wo presume tho election for United
Stales Senator m ill tnku placo early
this week and nothing wu could Bay
now wouliUtvu any effect In deter
mining the result Wo have tho uti
most confidence that Judgo Reagan
will bo selected In rcfercneo to the >
chargo that ho was ono of tho first
men in tho South to council submis-
sion alter tho war wohavothisto
say That faot proves that Reagan
while a devoted and a distinguished
Confederate officer and with all tho
dovotion to our seotion that a warm
and sanghino temperament would
naturally inspire in his ureist yet
had coolness and judgment enough in
that dark and trying moment to
weigh properly all the chances of tho
situation and to adviso tho course
that aloue could lead to a settlement
of tho future relations ot tho con-
quered States with the general gov-
ernment Wo havo een forced to
eome to it in tho end It might have
been bett lor Georgia Alabama
Mississippi and Louisiana had they
accepted tho situation promptly In
this State if Reagan advioo had
havo been acted upon wo would
have been spared tho last if not
other terms of Radical domination
and Coke or some other good Demo-
crat would havo been Governor of
Texas long before tho 15th of fanu
ary 1874
As to his record on the Iucreaso
Salary Bill Judge Reagan regrets
that it had Jany back pay feature
in it But in common with all who
havo devoted a thought to tho sub
jeet is convinced that tho pay of a
Congressman is toa small to maintain
a respeotablo position in tho Capital
of the nation and ho only advised
what every legislative body in tho
nation aro necessarily compelled
sooner or later to doiviz fir the
rato of their own pay In proof of
which wo havo only to say that he
was tho leading Rpirit in tho Plat-
form Committee of the late Demo-
cratic Convention at Austin This
document wo believe is considered
sufficiently orthodox by tho party
who won under it the proudest Dem-
ocratic victory of modern days
Judgo Reagan is not a man who
would pander to an unfounded and
uninst Dreiudicc to mount thunrmid
est throne in
Christendom Ho is
strong in tho consciousness of the rec-
titude of his own intentions and is
content to let history defend a public
career singularly free from taint or
even tho euspicion of demagogsicry
dishonesty or unfaithfulness The
people of Texas know him well The
heyday of his manhood has been de-
voted to thrir service in positions of
pubhe trust and confidence and iu
trying times and under trying cir-
cumstances and never has a single
trust Unit shu reposed in tho peerless
Reagan been dishonored and in his
perton has our youBg commonwealth
been honored boloic tho august as
semblages of the world and in the
realms of thought and profound po
litical knowledge she has had in her
honored sen a representative and an
advocato the peer of olthe profound
est and best among them
Again wo ay let Texas honor her
sell in honoring Reagan and let her
be assured that sho will havo a repre-
sentative iu tho national councils vig
ilant able honest faithful and
fearless
