FRIDAY OCTOBER 14. 1892
REPUBLICAN NOMINEE
FOR CONGRESS
12th District
HENHY TERRELL
Oil and water will no more mix
than Texas prosperity and irresponsi-
ble democratic domination.
Regulation of the railways of the
state by the state will not be abro-
gated by Clark’s election.
McGaughey's rubber stamp will
go into Texas history along with Ter-
rell’s mule.
THE issue in this state is
not the commission but good govern-
ment for the Lone Star state.
The Fort Worth Gazette is no long-
er on the fence since Mayor Paddock
Resumed the editorship.
Jerry Simpson the Bookless has
had some sense socked into him and
he refuses to meet any of the republi-
can speakers in the field and debate
the political issues. Jerry has found
his dead level.
New York state republicans are
bolding from 590 to 809 meetings
every night and the fruit thereof
will be seen in the grandest outpour-
ing of republicans at the polls on
election day that the state has ever
witnessed. Harrison will go down
to the Tammany crowd with 109000
majority.
The Jefferson Jimplecute is not in
the Clark column but judging from
the following editorial note it has no
use for Hogg. Jimplecute says:
‘•Senator Coke has not yet stated
when he is going to begin killing all
who do not vote for Hogg—but Texas
is going to begin killing Hoggs on
the Bth of November.” *
The Jimplecute is a Nugent paper
but it follows its leader into the Anti-
Hogg camp and would prefer Clark
to the present incumbrance.
FOR PRESIDENT
Benjamin
Harrison
—of—
INDIANA.
For V-Prksident
Whitelaw
Reid
—of—
NEW YORK.
The vote of the third party in
Georgia was abont 65009 in a total
votetif 200060. The same proportion
of the whole vote of Texas cast by
the third party in this state would
give Nugent not less than 125C00 and
Insure him the state. It is not wise
to count Nugent out until after the
returns are mads. The fight is not
over in this state until the last vote is
In and counted.
The Hduston PosUnas made such a
home for itself in the Hogg pen that
It will not be able to locate outside of
that pen for a year and a day. Should
the pen be broken up and the Hoggs
scattered what will become of the
Post? It has cut all its bridges and
has no retreat open if defeated.
"senator Coke is being roasted all
over Texas this campaign as never
before and the reception he is meet
ing at the hands of the state that has
so often honored him with its confi-
dence must at times cause him to wish
that either he or Hogg had never
been born. He is a way back num-
ber.
The average yield ot wheat per
acre in Kansas this year wes 17
bushels a higher average than any
other state reports. This means an
unusually large republican vote in
that state and a great party victory.
This result is looked for very con-
fidently by those who have been over
the ground.
Hogg and Clark eacn claim Dallas
by 2000 votes. This means that the
vote will be very nearly a stand off.
Certain it is that they cannot both
carry it. The third party vote there
is light.
It Is reported that one of the Dallas
banks has a pot of money deposited
to bet on Harrison's carrying the state
of New York. That may or may not
be but Harrison will carry it all the
same.
There is no hurrah work being done
in this congressional district but Mr.
Terrell is quietly at work and his
friends are not idle spectators of what
is transpiring. The votes that he is
entitled to Will not be permitted to be
scattered for wantof good work in the
voting precincts.
There Is not a shadow />f doubt
that Henry Terrell will better repre-
sent the iutsrests of this congression-
al district than either of the other
candidates. He will be able t» do
this among other things because he
will be allied with the administration
party with the senate and possibly
with the majority in the lower house.
His interests are here in San Antmio
and that counts for no little.
With the clearing of the Cherokee
strip of cattle vanishes one of the
great causes of contention between
the cattlemen and the federal author-
ities. The strip never was worth in
fee simple the trouble and disturb-
ance tbat it has caused. It will soon
be thrown open to settlement and so
much of it as is good tor anything will
be occupied. There are millions of
acres of more fertile lands waiting
settlement at settlers prices in south-
west Texas and .It is strange why
this Oklahoma craze should ever have
set it.
The theologues are recuring to the
art of stenography as one of the lost
arts and intimate the probability
tnat Christ had his stenographer to
take down his utterances and that
the objection that all that we have
ot his teachings is tradition does not
count. This is a novel idea to say
the least and one wonders how that
stenographer got in his work when
the Nararine was walking on the
water or when he was in the moun-
tain alone or when he was walking
through tbe corn fields on the Sab-
bath or at divers other times and
places when it was practically im-
possible tbat a stenographer could
take down the words tbat fell from
the lips of this peripatetic teacher. It
requires more faith to r ’lept the ex-
planation than tbat which it would
explain.
While very flattering reports as to
the chances of George Clark in Smith
county are given by the press the
Tyler Hogg organ remarks:
•‘The election of George Clark if
such a calamity were possible would
be a reyublican vict »ry—and nothing
more and nothing less.”
Were this true as asserted by the
Democrat-Reporter no greater bless-
ing could rest upon tbe people of this
state. The election of a republican
administration in Texas would double
her immigration increase all her In-
dustrial enterprises bring foreign
capital into the state by millions
largely advance her commercial
standing and put her forward a score
of years in the race for supremacy.
The Galveston Tribune does not at-
tempt to disprove what the Light
says but remarks.
••The San Antonio Light says the
republican platform '‘is a better
Texas document than ever was put
out by any body of democrats” in
this state. The Light has lost its hat
and is talking through its curls.”
. The Light Is willing to lose a hat
to the Tribune on the proposition put
forth in the above extract from its
oilumns. Let the Tribune put up or
go bareheaded.
Alger of Michigan is doing' good
work in Kansas is enthusiastically
received and says that there is not
the least doubt of the state giving
one of its old time republican majori-
ties this election.
Every republican In this congres-
sional district should not only see
that his vote is cast for Mr. Terrell
but he should see that the votes that
he casts for other party candidates
are paid In votes for the republican
nominee. There should be reciproci-
ty In this support of other party men.
The Fort Worth Gazette which is
nothing if not sanguine has an idea
that Smith county the home of the
‘‘Tyler Milkmaids” can be carried
against Hogg; and breathes its hopes
n the following:
•‘Smith county the home of the
Tyler dynasty is claimed by the
friends ot Judge Clark in that vicini-
ty by a plurality of fully 1.0C9. The
administration boycott has seriously
endangered the local ticket and a
majority of the voters in thetiwn of
Tyler are now enrolled in an anti-
Hogg club with the avowed deter-
mination of resisting the boycott to
the last extremity.”
legislative committee of the
New York State Homeopathic Medi-
cal Society has been instructed by
the Society to bring before the next
legislature of that state the necessity
of legal enactments restraining from
marriage those who are tainted by
berlditary with crime insanity or
disease. This is a move in the right
direction and no matter whether the
restriction be legalized at this time or
not it is certain to be In the future-
The medical societies of all the states
and the philanthropists as well
should interest themselves in this
matter as vitally concerning society
In its physical and moral conditions.
It is almost three score years since
Gladstone first took his seat in the
English parliament and he ie today
one of the most vigorous of tbe mem-
bers who have passed the meridian
of life.
Will Smith county join Travis in
its antagonism to Hogg? It Is claimed
that it will. If this claim is made
gc jd then Hogg will be repudiated
alike in bis Own home and in his state
capital. It will be a sharp comment
on h's facility tor creating disgust
in the minds of those most intimate
with him if this condition of things
is brought to pass.
—While at Big Island Va. last April I
was taken with a very severe attack of
dlarrhoa. I never had it worse in my life.
I tried several old-time remedies such as
blackberry wine psragoricand laudanum
without getting and relief. My attention
was then called to Chamberlain’s Colic
Cholera and Diarrhoea remedy by Mr. R
C. Tinsley who had been handling it there
and in less than five minutes after tailing
a small dose! was entirely relieved. —O
