deteriorate from the appreciation of

fused to recognize evangelists
The pieparers of the paper which
was being read thought It better that

X have read the speech of Judge
Clark made nt Oonsales em Hon Jnclnta

He began It by saving that woe a daj
and occasion in which Texnns Simula
lav netdo nil pelflshnte all partUan
ship all malice and all uncharitable
Hess nnd think only of the greatness
and glory nnd honor nnd prosperity oi
Texas and Ji < r poople
Hefore he rot through his speech h
made nn elaborate nn unjust and nit
uncalled for nttnek on me In whlcli
forgottlng his charity and faithful
only to his partlzanshlp and innllc
ho grossly nnd no doubt wilfully mis
leptwnted my Mew a for purely i
pnrtlxon purpose
Iteferrlng to me he said Ho w o hrtvi
here a pmty In government demnndlnif
the confiscation of private land
futlem in money und I may say robbery
of private property in the shapo of tall
road Investments and set this political
body contains so much of virtue and M
much ot Democracy that a dlstlm
gutshed cltlxen of our stole pot mor

In this statement m make twa
charges against mo Tirst That not

A grosser ierveralon of tho truth wan
never made No on knows better than
Judgft Clark the conservatism of my
views on political questions rrom tho
time nt which he allege X made this
Invitation he could only have refer-
ence to my letter to the publio of April
10 1 quote at length all X said on that
subject ns follows There Is ono
Other question of serious import to tho
Democracy of Texa Democrats who
ar disappointed by the course wfclch
has been pursued by the president and
some of the Democratic member of
eonKress have some of thorn quit an I
other of them aro considering whether
they wll quit the Democrat Io party tn
Join the Poputlntx The Tcpullspj agree
with tho Domocrncj pu the question oi
coinage the tariff and tax on Income
nnd a to tho necessity for an Increase
of the volume of rurrency In fact they
borrowed these policies from the Demo
cratlo party There Is nothing there-
fore In these question to prevent
their uniting with th Democracy but
they advocate some other policies which
Democrats bellevo to be Violative of the
constitution of the United states
dangerpuoly paternalistic and utterly
Impracticable On these they cannot
agree I refer to their advocacy of tho
Issue pf money by the government ta
be loaned to the people on land mort-
gages end on the deposit of farm pro-

proposal that the government rhatl buy
and own the railroads telegraph and
telephones Those who framed and
adorled the constitution of tb United

that the United Htates should become a
lender of money for private use or a >
broker In aim products or the owner
of farms to bo obtained by the fore-
closure of mortage The rarltallza

stocks and bonds amount to something
between twelve and fifteen billions oi

notes would render tho money worth-
less anl rtfpullste will no doubt agree
wth all others that the government
should not Isrtuo bonds to pay for them
And these properties cannot be bought

Is not the most remote possibility that
