True Democracy.
Ed Times.—I desire to submit
through the columns of your valuable
paper a brief review of Texas democ-
racy aud its future as we see it to-day.
Never in the history of Texas pili-
ng has '.here been so much intercs
Manifested on the part of the people
as now. Strange, but true to assert,
that iu all of our past Uveuty years ol
principles outliueu by the democratic cause. We need them more new I that Clark, as governor of 'J exas, is
party, which, tnough old as the his- than ever before: the party can not
lory of American iudopeudonce, can | afford this great division of its forces;
not bo deceived, nnd to whicti the
party stands foreyer pledged to de-
iu perfect harmonv with the progress
and prosperity of her people, our col

time when tl e voters eliciieil so ltttle ca„ liberty, and especially is this f a
desire to discuss intelligently aud i jure 0f jhe American constitution

mon votaries discussing the political
issues of the country from a m tnly

the spirit that should chsracteriz'

brought about this campaigu for tbo

a majority says my choice is noigood

tbo majority. We will make a test
case as fo’lows: The writer advocate*

that it is his duty to work for his
nomination, then for his election in a
elected governor, and will be actuated
by uis lo.e for bis country iu the ad-
ministration of affairs of goveruiuc.it,
aui in so doing confidence and har-
mony will prevail among the people
throughout the country, aud all of the
energv of the people will be directed

gains during the past two years.
