Sinck Tilden's declination thero
does not appear to be any great
4egree of unanimity in the Democratic
ranks as to who should be the Presi
dentiol nominee. Henry Watterson
still urges McDonald.andasalloosior
we feel inclined to "second the mo-
tion; but are perouadod that Gov.
Cleveland of Now York probably has
the inside track for the first place on
the ticket and would be tho strongest
man.
We lately published on tho posi-
tion assertion of a citizon of San
Antonio a statement not flattering
as regards her business condition.
Whereupon tho Light takcB us to
task as follows :
The Free Press should be more
fair and should not resort to Buch
bushwhacking statements simply to
make a sontenco or round off a
period for it is not Buch a terribly
long distanco from hero to that town
that tho truth should get so attenua-
ted. Wo certainly havo no disposition
to do injustice to San Antonioand are
Ajlad to roccive assurances from her
newspapers that tho statement of our
informant was largely exaggerated.

.entitled to the Democratic nomination.

worse." Houston Post
Mr. Hendricks is an able man but

considers him an available candidate.
San Antonio Times.
Why not t Eight years ago when
he was nominated with Tildenit was
cot uncommon to hear democrats say
they would havo liked the ticket
better if Hendricks hod come first
He was a prime favorite of the party
then i he is tho samo man still ; then
why disparago and flout him howt
We admit it is quito unlikely that ho
.will be the nominee now but the fact
morely shows the fickleness of popular
favor.
fho hanging of Mr. Julian in effigy
at San Marcos tho other night was a
contemptible act that reflects upon
the character of that community
rather than upon that of Mr. Julian
Whoso only "offense" was in con-
scientiously advocating a measure ho
believed would benefit the whole
people and especially those no doubt
who were unprincipled enough to
vent their hatred in such a contempti-
ble manner. It is safo to say no
reepoctablo citizen of San Marcos
participated in the act and that it
.will make friends and supporters for
the man it attempted to injure.

We find an annronriato notico of it
in the Bellville Timos which we copy

Hon. James F. Miller h speech on
tho Morrison bill is beforo us. It is

to show that the "general welfare" is

Miller sustains his position by quot
ing judicial decisions and submit
ting extracts from various reports
and state papers. He points out the
injury of protection to everybody but
tne nroiecieu capuousu nuu buuwb
that even if all tho workmen engaged
in protected manufactures are benefit-
tod by ft high tariff they are only
four per cent of the population for
whom the other ninety-six per cent
bears increased burdens. It is a
calm dispassionate well considered
and exhaustive discussion of the
whole Bubect and is seemingly
unanswerable and irrefutable.

the bounds of legimato argument in

Tho late conduct of a crowd at San
Marcos in hanging in efligy the editor
of tho Free Press as a mode of express
ing their disapprobation of its courso
in favor of local option is a disgrace
to tho community where it occurred
and an outrageous attempt to in
fluence tho free utterance of opinions
by tho public press. Mr. Julians
advocacy of the proposed measure
was both calm and dignified singul-
rly free from all indications of
bigotry. Those who participated in
tho scandalous proceedings by their
own conduct givo evidence that the
estraints of prohibition would be
peculiarly advantageous to them even
its principal eueot was nothing
more than to prevent them making
simpletons of themselves. Victoria

A San Marcos special to the San
Antonio Express says "Our town has
last awoke from its slumbers and
is now determined to make a first-
class road from this place to Blanco
City one that none in the state will
excel for the purpose of holding that
trado and shipping which we already
have. Our people are a little slow
but when they do get stirred there is
no little town that will show more
enterprise by coming down with the
cosh like San Marcos. All they want
is to know that it is a good cause.

and lumber for our thriving sister

TlldeVi Declination.
We have not space this week for
the fall letter of declination of Mr.
Tildon so only give the conclusion.
We regard the entire letter however
as too interesting and important to be
omitted and will give tho remainder
in our next After referring at some
length to his past political record
and his course in 18H0 ho mokes the
following impressive aud touching
pororation i
At the presont time the considers
lions which induced my action in 1880
have become imperative. I ought
not to assume task which I have
not the physical strength to carry
through. To reform the administra-
tion of the Federal Government to
roalize my own ideal and to fulfill the
just expectations of the people would
indeed warrant as they could alone
compensate the sacrifices which the
undertaking would involve. But in
my condition of advancing years and
declining strength I fool no assurance
of niv ability to accomplish those
cbiects. I am therefore constrained
to say definitely that I can not now
assume the laoors 01 an auminisirauon
or of a canvass undervaluing in
nowise that best irift of heaven the
occasion and tho power sometimes
bestowed upon a mere individual to
commnnicato an impulso for good.
Grateful boyond all words to express
to my fellow-countrymen who would
assign sucu a ucnenceni iuncuon w
me I am consoled by tho reflection
that neither tho Democratic party nor
tho Republic for whose future that
. .1 i i -1 :
party is me wm gmuaumo uun
or ever can be dependent upon any
one man for their successful progress
in the path of a noblo destiny.
Havinur srivinsr to their welfare what
ever of health and strength I possessed
or could borrow from the future and
havintr reached the term of my capa
city for such labors as their welfare
now demands I but submit to the
will of God in deeming my public
career forever closed.

THE LETTER FORESHADOWED.
Spatial Diipilcb to the Glob-Dmoartt.
Leavenworth Kan. June 11. The
Standard the Democratic organ of
this city publishes the following
special dispatch from Mayor Neely
this evening :
New York June 11. I spent an hour
and a half with Mr. Tilden yesterday
at Greystone. He talked freely and
unreservedly. His voice is weak and
his hand somewhat tremulous but
otherwise his mental and physical
functions are in good condition for a
man 70 years old. Referring to his
health he said : "I am not so bad as
I have been pictured." His apparent
condition pictures him a great deal
worse than be really is to those who
are not laminar with tne character
of his disease shaking palsy which
makes slow progress in its insidious
influence. Tilden is likely to live
many years. His great brain is clear
and his memory is unimpaired. I
referred to the Kensas Democratic
Convention 'and the enthusiastic
unanimity of delegates in his favor.
Ho looked and expressod gratifica-
tion but said "You must take some
ono else. Acting under the command
of a sense of duty I have written a
letter declining. to bo a candidate for
tho Presidency which will bo made
public to-morrow or next day."
I told him that tho Democracy
would reluctantly if at all give their
aBsent. He replied: "The Ameri-
can people do not seem to appreciate
why any man should not wish to be
President ; but I do not now desire
the office. If I had been nominated
four years ago I would have con-
sidered it my duty to have accepted
the nomination."
We will give you a candidate who
will command the respect and ap-
proval of the country.
(Signed) S. F. Neelet.
Mayor Neeley has been a regular
practicing physician of this city for
years and his opinion as to Tilden's
health is probably of considerable
value. The Democratic party of Kansas
is for the old ticketand this declination
made to their representative creates
considerable disappointment.
HENDRICKS ON THE DECLINATION.
Indianapolis Ind. June 11. Hon.
Thomas A. Hendricks in an interview
concerning Tilden's letter of declina-
tion said the news wan not a surprise
to him for when he visited Tilden in
August last that gentleman very
firmly announced his intention to
remain permanently out of politics.
On a succeeding visit in April last
the same determination had been ex-
pressed. Hendricks thought there
was little doubt that the old ticket
would have been unanimously nomina-
ted at Chicago if it had not been for
the declination to-day. He said that
the demand for it among the Democ-
racy was almost universal and great
er than any movement of the kind
he hod ever seen in politics. Person-
ally he felt no great disappointment
He did not want tho office of Vice
President eight year ago and did
not want it now. If the old ticket
had remained in the field he should
have considered an election to that
place a great honor conferred by the
people as a rebuke to what they
consider a great wrong. It would
have prevented the seating of Hajs
in 1876 from becoming a precedent
for future elections. Mr. Hendricks

Frank Weaver the young murderer
who killed ft companion named

pleada guilty and will be sentenced

embezzlement and robbery which has
been prevailing all over the Northern

summer. Some sympathy is felt for
Weidner and much pity is manifested
for his estimable wife.
The theatrical season is over in the
city and society is now amusing
themselves with lawn parties and
steamboat excursions. The latter
takes place on Saturday afternoon
and are generally under the manage-
ment and for the benefit of fashiona
ble churches in the west end of the
city and are patronized by the elite
of society. The boats usually go to

Mr. Roswell P. Flower is un
doubtedly a very respectable as well
as a very rich gentleman but the
fact of his having served one term in
Congress is hardly a sufficient title
for the gentleman's claim on the
presidential nomination. Not the
rich but the servants of long stand-
ing have a claim to that distinction.
It is dangerous fallacy to believe that
the Democracy can be successful
under a leader of indifferent ability.
