and admit that the causes which
led to that division antedated the
adoption of the platform, and
I grew out of purely local questions
in no way involving Federal
affairs.
The division then being upon
«tate issues, the question arises,
Is it reasonable, right or necessa-
ry that the party stand asunder
any longer upon them ? This leads
me to call your attention to those
disturbing problems:
1. “Hoggism,” as it has been
termed.
2. The proposition to have a
law passed prohibiting the ficti-
tious issuance of stocks and bonds
by railway companies.
3. The demand for a law to re-
strict the execution of bonds by
towns, cities and counties to act-
ual public necessities.
4. The adoption of a law to
prohibit the ownership of land for
horticultural, agricultural and
speculative purposes by corpora
tions.
Upon these four issues the cam-
paign for the Democratic notnina
tion was made. It is doubtful if !
reference to the exciting scenes 1
of that exciting contest is calcu- 1
lated to revive pleasant memories.
My allusion to them is only to
point out the causes that led to 1
the division, and to show that they >

Would it not, therefore, violate
every element of manhood and

racy to impose other conditions

asked by the officers in charge

The reports from Dallas state that
a great audience greeted Governor
Hogg last Saturday. Every inch
of available space was crowded,
and two-thirds of the audience
were citizens of Dallas and sur-
rounding towns. The farmers
were fairly wpll represented.
Col. John N. Simpson, a leader
of the Clark forces, presided, and
oceupying seats on the platform
were many prominent in the poli-
tics of the state, and hundreds of
Democratic business and profes-
sional men who followed the flag
of Judge Clark last year were in
the audience.
Governor Hogg was given the
closest attention and at times was

the severe drouths. The winters
are too long. It is hard to work
six months in the year to have
enough to keep warm by the oth-
er six. In spite of the fact that

its lands at advanced figures, it is

opinion on the question,
the pressure which had been
bronght to bear upon him, he
said, for the bond issue, and al-
though he regretted the necessity
for it, as the step did not seem to
meet the unanimous approval of
the party, yet it was plain to him
that the necessity was imperative
at this time. A deficit of $80,000,-
000 would exist at the end of the
fiscal year, he estimated, under
.p?iltij?gM?^uidi«on8?.firijs a, result
of the proposed tariff legislation,
unless congress gave relief to the
treasury, which he hoped it would
do.
Mr. Bailey asked Mr. Carlisle
whether he thought the law on
which he based his right to issue
bonds empowered him to devote
the proceeds to the expenses of
the government, or to redeem the
notes issued under the Sherman
act. Mr. Bailey added that he
did not doubt the right to sell
bonds for resumption, but did
deny that the proceeds could be
applied to other ends.
The answer of Mr. Carlisle was
comprehensive, and in the affirm-
ative. He explained that most of
the appropriations made by con-
gress stipulated that any money
in the treasury, “not otherwise
appropriated,” should be nsed for
carrying out the purpose of the
act. Under this authority, the
secretary said he could expend
for current expenses all the mon-
ey in the treasury, down to the
last dollar, whether or not it was
the proceeds of bonds, provided,
only, that it was not otherwise
appropriated. He had power,
also, he thought, to sell more
bonds as he saw the necessity,
governed by his own discretion,
so long as the state of the treas-
ury made it necessary to borrow
money.
The leading question from the
Republican side was put by Mr.
Ray of New York, who asked:
“ Mr. Secretary, I desire to put
this question, which you can an-

the pasU —XL. seems to me, my
fellow-citizens, thaUTL^e will ad-
here to this coarse, and efre erf ally
respond to the call of the regular
organized Democratic executive
committee, when made, aud adopt
as the basis of representation the
vote of 1890, waiving all bitter
ness that may have occurred since
that time, we can march on united
to success in fraternal good feel-
ing with all sores of the past
healed forever.
The First Law of Nature.
This self-preservation is ac-
knowledged to be, and people
who adopt against the encroaches
of disease a genuine medicinal
safeguard, accredited by expe-
rience and the sanction of physi-
cians, afford a happy illustration
of the wisdom of the saying, in
the health they restore and con-
tinue to enjoy. Among maladies,
against the growth of which Hos-
tetter’s Stomach Bitters affords
efficient protection, diseases of
the kidneys aud bladder are
fraught with the utmost peril and
exhibit great obstinacy when op-
posed by ordinary means. The
Bitters can and will snbdue them.
No testimony is stronger than
this. Used at the outset aud per
sistently, the best results may be
expected. This medicine also
eradicates liver complaint, con-
stipation, dyspepsia, malaria, rheu-
matism and nervousness.
wm oe out or tne coming cam-
paign, for the reason that I now
say in the presence of this assem-
blage, as I announced at San An-
tonion in 1890, in accepting the
Democratic nomination, repeat-
ed at Houston in 1892 in ac-
cepting the second nomination of
the party, and reiterated in my
inaugural address at Austin in
1893, that in reaching the office of
governor I have gone to the sum-
mit of my political ambition. There
is no other office in the gift of the
people of this state that I covet,
have ambition for, or could accept.
Now, finally and for good, in view
of the frequent mention of my
name in connection with a third
term for the governorship and for
the United States senatorship, I
tell you, gentlemen, that for rea-
sons satisfactory to myself, con-
sistent with the public good, I
frould not accept a commission to
either if tendered to me on a sil-
ver platter or in any other way.
In the first place, as I have de-
clared and repeated, in serving
two terms each as attorney-gener-
al and governor, I have reached
ed the highest round of my polit-
ical ambition ; and if for no other
reason, the pinched poverty -into
which I have drifted as a pnblic
servant would lead me to the ne-
cessity of returning to profession
al pursuits at the meridian of life,
where I can have more of the
comforts and less of the hardships
than has ever been my lot in pub-
lic life.

the basis of representation in the
primaries and next state conven-
tion? Another asks what shall l>.
the rs-st applied to those who pi -
pose to panic-pate in the prim
ries and local convemious? Fellow
citizens, it occurs to me that the
best method would be, to bridge
over the chasm from November 9,
1890, to January, 1893; that we
adopt as a basis of representation
the vote cast for governor in 1890
when we were all friendly atad
fighting together; when there
were no issues that divided us;
when united-effort in common
cause won for Democracy a glo-
rious triumph. Without reference
to anything that occurred since
that period, let us apply the usual
Democratic tests prescribed by
the state Democratic conuuittee
in the primaries and local coWfen-
tions, and ask of no man how he
voted in any election. If Demo-
crats have differed, separated.

well, Wellington, Wichita, Topeka
and other prominent points in
Kansas; to Denver, Colorado
