A Violent Arraignment of the Demo-
crats—Slu« Charged Upon Them at
Every Turn — ludepentfentism the
Only True £^alth—The Creed of that
Followln;
La.~t evening the friond^ of Hon. G. Wash. Jones
serenaded him at the Washington Hotel and after-
ward escorted him to the Pavilli<_>n where a 8
o'clock he bepan speaking to an audience o? about
500 Deople.
Mr. P. T. Languille, president of the Independ-
ent Club, iutroduce l the speaker, as of Texas, be-
longing to no one section or party.
Mr. Jones thea began his speech, being greeted
with liberal applause. For two hours and a quar-
ter he discussed na'ional and State issues, dia-
tribed i gainst the Democratic party, abused the
newfcpapors and pi\.is,>d the independent spirit in
polities and government.
No attempt lias been made to gfve a literal re-
port of th« speaker's remarks, but the following
synopsis is presented as embracing the leading
points coveted:
Six years ago I was an independent candidate
for Congress. I issued a circular address, in which
l endeavored to express my views on the political
situation, especially in relation to the parties to
the republic and the purity of the ballot-box—the
present conriiler .tion. I endeavored to say that
parlies bas-d on public polity, and havitigiin view
tne putilic good, were beneficial; but that when
the isvue>s making the parties were settled, the
parties died. If the v survived, th«y became fac-
t:uns, and nothing else. He had fait the sad con-
sequences that had been brought on the country
by divided issues. He had seeu men plying
selves
- r egates
to the celebrated Baltimore convention. He
didn't approve what was then called the Demo-
cratic party, and as he couldn't tske the other
side, j-aid he wouldn't tai^e any. He didn't regard
it as a Democratic convention -unbearable to vote
for Horace Greeley—but after consideration
thought it best to entomb the prejudices of the
people. After much discussion, he concluded to
accept the grand principles of his (Greeley's) let-
ter, ar.d waiving party principles would recom-
mend him as a wutid conservative Republican,
who held to the three great oardinal principles of
republican government. Sam Randall opposed
it, because the Penn-ylvauia Demo*
crais wanted him nominated outright,
«^L-»e they could not be controlled. He
tiif'n made a homi'3r upon this anomalous state of
affair-—:hat to indorse a good Republican Demo-
crats would refuse to vote for him, but to 'somi-
nate him would make a good Democrat of him.
and all would vote for him. Blind devoiion to
par y is what has well-nigh rui.-eu the count y.
He had set out to overthrow factions. He referred
t.- his congressional races, charging tha#therc had
been manipulation of the ballot-boxes. He was
counted out. He wrote to Hancock, a personal
friend, and to Throckmorton. The former an-
swered discouraging, the latter never answered at
all, because he was afraid of the Bour-
bong. He declared that all party issues are
gone, aud the whole matter of question now is,
who shall have the chicken pie. He denounced
conventions, and declared that tho people were
tired of partyisui. It might take some time to
come to an understanding, but it would come, and
•' if you beat me this time, Til c>me a^ain.'' He
put forward the definition of Democracy to be
government by the people, aud charged that the
a >c»4ied Democracy or to-day were frauds upon
titf- name. He said m 1878 tho Democrats adopted
a Gi-eenback platform, and nominated a lvtrd
money njan and gul.ed the. people. Iu 1SS0.
at Cincinnati, au "honest mofiey" plat-
form was adopted; and the people swal-
lowed it; there beiug some men who voted
for |he g. eeeoaok platform of Texas Domocraey
in 1873, siubmitted to and accepted the hard-
moury platform of 1B80. He charged that the 1P78
platform was a trick u> keep tender-footed Demo-
crats in the fold. He had heard men boast that
they had never scrutched a ticket. Whenever he
heard it, it made him sad, for he felt that man
was boasting of his own servility. He claimed that
the arrearages of pensions actwa* the work of the
Demoorats in C- ngress as a bid for Northern sol-
diers' vote*, and it would cost the country from
five to ten hundred million dollars. He said he
hadn't time to dwell on the corruption
of the Democratic faction—he couldn't call
it a party. He accused the Democrats iu Congress
with whining for free trade, but always going for
protection tor little industries in their own vicinity.
He boldly charged that Randall carried the Deau>-
cratic party in Consrress, and reviewed in detail
the work of the party lo prove it, ci ing especially
the national b»*nk a«'t to sliow the force of his as-
sertion.
Ho next paid bis respects to the to the Galveston
convention, and ridiculed it He referred to Wea-
ver's tilt with IHubbrfrd, and Giddings's downfall
against the same force, and Hancock's declination.
He said Hancock was not a Democrat; that th"
Indepeneni movement wan growing aud Haucoek
wa< needed, so the Democrats bought htm
over bv making West judge and him
president of the convention. Hancock knows no
more about Democracv than a hog about astrono-
my. The shade of Thomas Jefferson should have
risen and cursed John Hancock for his impudence
in pretending to be a D-mocrat. lie charged bcth
Hancock and Ireland with being Knownothings—
fossilized Ktjownothuigs— now the standard-
bsar rs of the Democracy. lie next paid his com-
pliments to the l&bt congressional campaign,
accusing S-th Shepard with having attempted as
a Greenback mnn to srand on a hard-money plaf-
form. He iiitto viewed the contests I election cases
ia Congress, taking first the Lynch-Chslmers
case. He defenoed elaborately h s course in th.-t
case. He claimed that Ly ch w.ts elected by 000
votes, but was counted out because there were
dashes b.-tweeu certain names, t Is rule of action
was that ballets »leet, and net technical quibbles.
He had ac ed upoa the broad platform of the con-
stitution. He was sitting as a judge, and for thi
he had been condemned by the Texas press. It
wasn''. bec*ns« he had voted to seat a man who
was fairly elected, but because he had voted to
seat a negro. This was the heud of his offendinir.
The obv etioa to the Lvnoh ticket was it didn't
have a Democrat's name up m it.
He next dei'etided his acion in the Mackey case:
charged that »i?s had been told on Mackay by The
News and >;ther papers. Uackey had never been
prosecuted but- twice, and that was for whipping
two Democratic editors, and if more were treated
the same wav it would do them good, aud keep
them from lying about good m-n. The Couuor
ca»u was next referred to. He had voted for the
iSTormon because he had the law on his side. For
this the Texas papars had actually accused him of
9li'g a Mormon. The Lowe-Wheeler case and the
Frisbee-Finlay case< were next brought under the
striae, and in his action in both cases he
charged he had been most outrageously mis-
represented. He bo.'dly charged that in all the
cases of contested elections he had voted for what
he thought, by She facts to be right, whether it
vras for a Democrat. Republican or Greonbacker.
He w -s elaborate in his discussion of these cases,
and his defense of his action was given in detail.
He said the Northern Democrats were opposed to
the c -urse advocates by the Southern, but they
were told that If they didn't come to the aid of the
Southern Democrats and help suppress tho negro,
they (the Southern Democrats) would
go over to the negroie and be
elected by them and their influence.
He had been denounced as a demagogue because
he had tho courage to denounce corrupt measure.;
which he kuew would ultimately cause the people
to suffer*.
Hr- had discussed these questions, because he
wants to combat and break the force of prejudice.
The question for Texas to solve is the qjustion of
educationa. ai d material development; build rail-
roads; have good free schools: protect th<» frontier;
free and fair elections. We want immigration.but
in order to gel it we mu>t have good schools, good
laws and a pure ballot. The speaker
then indulged in a run of ridicule
„„-a:n?t Joseph Savers for incomistency
in damning Roberts with a political indictment
and then, when he was nominated, moving to
make the nomination unanimous. Coming to the
State policy he said, if you want free schools, elect
me who are in favor of them, not those who say
they arc.». He is earnestly in ravor of free school
as the foundation of advancing and elevating civ-
dization. He wanted to see the system so that
everv cnild between the ages of six and fifteen can
be aDle to learn to read and write. He favored the
State University also. It could be made a State
pride, thanks to the liberal endowment heretofore
made. With reference to immigration, he was in
favor of it- but if you will establish free
s hools immigration will come. He favored r ii-
roads. Was no railroad lawyer; had never been
paid anything by them, but he had this to say:
they were the forerunners of civilization, a fact
that had been proved all over the great State of
Texa?. The only fault he could find was that we
did nor have railroads enough. Railroads ought
not to be allowed to discriminate against terminal
or competitive points; make rates uniform. No
rebates with regard to passenger traffic. Protec
the road, but guard igaiust rebates and discrimina-
tions, aud prevent them. In fine, encourage and
protect railroads, but guard and protect the peo-
ple—tuere's the \\ hole thiug in a nutshell. On the
laud question, he favored ceding the public lands
to actual srtllers. Sell the land iu small parcel-
to them on liberal terms. Take, then, the in teres;
on the money thus received and build up school-
houses to educat.- his children. He spoke ia favor
oi protection to life and lioerty and property, and
on this subject gave n earnest dessert*'ion. He
criticised the a ministration cf Governor Roberts
on this subject, tie said the newspapers were too
much given to trying cases out of court: said
they were given to tnis with just as much ig-
norance as characterized their attacks on him iu
the election ca-e^. The papers ua « started the
Ireland boom, and were going to stand in with
J^hn. Ha continued his onslaught upon the
press, and promised if he became governor he
would discharge the duties of his office according
to the dictates of right and duty, without refer-
ence to what the newspapers might say.
lir. Jones thon, in a rambling masuer, went on
to boast his own independence and the cowardice
of the Democrats in Congress.
He then, alluding to the Galveston convention,
said thai one man li-d been sacrificed on the aitar
<»!* honesty and devotion to duty. He referred to
Comptroller brown and said twenty-six sheriffs
and a lot of tax-collectors had come down here
and demanded his head iu a charger, and it had
boeu given to th'-m.
Mr. Geo. A. Hill arose in the audience and asked
who the twenty.six sheriffs were.
Oh! 1 can't name them.
I wish you would tell them to tha people of
Texas.
I got it out of the correspondence from here to
an Austin paper.
The speai e * then continued and made a point
that even these sheriffs who had caused the sacri-
fice of an honest m .n, found supp rters in the
audience before him. He followed this with
a strong denuueiation of the old cry
of a Confederate reqord, which he said was an es-
sential prerequisite to eke attainment of a Demo-
crat c nomination The way to end the war was
to disband the Democratic party. As Judge
Davis, president pro tem. of the Senate, had tes-
tified in the Guiteau trial, the way to break up the
Republican party is first to disband the Dem o-
cratic party. Northern Democrats are worse ene-
mies of the South than Northern Republicans.

Stray Notes.
Major Tom Ochiltree did not arrive last night,
as was expected. A large party gathered at the
depot to meet him, and was in anything but an ex-
cellent humor when tho train pulled in to the depot
and he was not ou board.
About 9 o'clock yesterday two horses attached
to a wagon, and being driven by James -Aliis, took
fright ou Tremont street and ran away. After
running a few blocks they collided with some ob-
struction, breaking a wheel off the wagon.
In addition to the many Improvements that have
lately be. u made to the TJraUhne Convent, the
ladies of the institution have had put up iu their
chapel three beaui iful stained gias; sanctuary
wiudows, which have been greatly admired bv all
whp have seen them.
The fire alarm telegraph wires, reported in yes-
terday's News as being down, nave been put up
again by the superin'eudent.

ITo The News.l
Galveston, August 19, 1882.—in your editorial of
yesterday's issue, headed "fiie Case of the
Schooner Henrietta," you publish the following
sentence:
"The government of Texas, governor, legisla-
tors and aU, may take to themselves any odium
that attaches to the State iu the matter of tane
particular hardship worked in the case of the
schooner Henrietta, or others of its kind that may
occur hereafter."
In relation to the above, it appears to me you
fail to place some of the bl&ine where if more
properly belongs. The legislators, with the ap-
proval of the governor, s, me few years ago voted
a large appropriation to eVect querantiue build-
ings f r ju^t such cases as the Henrietta. The
location on Pelican ifeiand was selected after care-
ful examination and its location approved by the
then State health officer,the uatioual health offic-r
and ;he Galveston Board of Health, and when the
emergency arose for their use, the present State
health officer ihsirucced they be so usad, but the
people (aud some of the present Board of Health
concurred with them) became panicky and cried
out agaiu*t their usa for that purpose.
The legislators, with the approval of the gov-
ernor, voted a large appropriation this year to
build a disinfectiug quarantine warehouse, and its
location has been selected at tho Point, and work
actually begun upon it. Who caa cow say, when
a vessel shall arrive with a cargo of fruit, coffee
or other merchandise, from ac infected port, and
proposes to disinfect and land its cargo at his
warehouse, when completed, that this same peo-
ple will not arise and cry out that this war-house
is too ueur the city to disinfect that cargo and take
the risk therefrom?
Surely the people, if panic stricken, have a right
to have that panic abated by removing the cause,
and no one, at such a time, ueed attempt to waste
words in argument, until all danger is over.
In my ooiuion, all tho odium can not attach to
the governor, legislators and all, f«r they have
voted all the moneys asked for quarantine pur-
po-es, and it has been expanded with deficie ncies
in most instances; but some of the odium should
attach to those who erect auarantiue buildings iu
places not considered entirely safe by the adja-
cent com munitv when they get panicky.

[Excerpts from a gentleman's current local diary.]
*******
There's one thing I can't understand. In view of
the Galveston Board of Health's vigilance over the
outer gates of ingress to our city from the Mexi-
can borders and the gulf, and that is the many
stagnant, stinking alleys and gutters to be met
with throughout this city at present, while the
street gang are kept employed in gatheriag up the
light trash in piles on clean and dry thoroughfare*,
utterly iguoring the many contiguous localities
reeking with stench and miasmatic germs. It is
unnecessary to point out this palpable fact; few
can help observing the many alleys, choked up
with stagnant pools, swill and rotten vegetation,
et id omne genus, within a radius of two blocks
north and south of Market street, that favored
arana of our oity that absorbs all our muuicipal
facilities—police, night-lamps, official supervision,
municipal and sanitary, and every other advan-
tatre supposed to be invested within the functions
of municipal gcvernmeot, while the street gangs
are shoveling out little surface drains in our com-
paratively clean suburbs, or on Tremont streut,
to little or no purpose, in view of the exigeut
demand for all local sanitary precautions. Nor
can I understand the Gaivestou ** scavenger " de-
partment management. Dnring the entire season
thus far dead animals—dogs, cats, chickens, etc.—
have been constantly met with throughout the
streets in my end of town, and have rotted where
they lay. I counted nine dead chickens one morn-
ing within two blocks. I am an early riser and a
constant preambulator, yet I have never met a
single scavenger's cart removing a dead carcass
from the streets during this summer, while 1 have
remarked their gradual extermination, through
the vulture, the starving cur and the desiccative
sua, from day to day.
As Galveston is happily susceptible of surface
drainage, how desirable would be some hydraulic
system of water power that would enable her
streets and alleys (anyhow within the area above
mentioned) to be washed freely from our exhaust-
less bay, and to be followed up by the brooms,
shovels and carts of our ** street-gangs," at least
once or twice each week during the summer, if at
no other season.
On the threshold of the fall the Board of Health
has resolved to request the mayor and Board of
Aldermen to employ more men and drays " and
to procure sand to till alleys and low places la the
city." It Is better late than never In this, as in
many other things; but tp our natural advantages
we car possibly attribute Foraething of our exemp-
tion from the " endemic " and " ap?radio " con-
tmgrncies—of Yellow Jack—thus far this sea-'on.
Our Board of Health may be nervously imprac-
ticable in anything like a discriminative or limited
pratique, and decide upon absolute isolation dur-
ing Yellow Jack's regency, but who can ju-tiy
blame them in their great responsibility? The
contingency is always so imminent, the eccen-
tricities of Lhe disease in Its pathological features,
rendering it exceptional to the most scientific co-
ronation. often rendering futile the moat rt.sorlmi-
nativH vigilance during intercourse; it sneaks in
through some unthought, silent quarter, as noise-
lessly, as imperceptibly, as the green-fly in the
household, and poisons all it touches.
We who have had yellow fever—who have
nursed it and acquired confidence in its control,
af»d hence comparative indifi'erence to its terrors,
are too often inconsiderate grumblers ac the strin-
gent and sweeping precaution'-ry measures that
our sanitary guardians interdict, forgetting that
the life or death of thousands of our fellowmen
and women depend upon their sagacity aud their
Vigilance.
But in con-idoring our own local immunitv from
the ?courge, through precautionary and arbitrary
measures, we should endeavor first, last aud ail
the time, not o secure it, at the cost of the suffer-
ing, sacrifice and death of other-, as has recently
occurred with the unfortunate passengers uf the
schooner Henrietta. Tne history of this case has
been and is still being ventilated throughout the
land, and tho whole episode may be --aid to have
its origin iu the absence of proper quarantine hos-
pital facilities here. No better proof or such reed;
no more practical illustration of its indispensibility
—in justice to Galveston, toTexas.and to humanity
—could well have been improvised than the cir-
cumstances emanating from this case.

Shocking; Train Accident.
Anoka, Miss., August 19.—When the north-
bound passenger train on the Manitoba Rail-
road arrived at tho depot here at 10:30 o'clock,
the engineer reported that he h^d struck
something at a crossing about half a mile be-
low town. A party went back to investigate
and found a dead horse and the fragments of
a bu^gy some ten rods beyond the crossing.
Near the crossing were the bodies of four
person*—two men and two women—horribly
mangUd.
The remains were taken to the depot an&
there identified as Wm. Hackett, Jasper Cole,
Miss Florence Parker and Miss Lillie Dawson.
The bodies were crushed and bruised so that
identification was difficult. Coie was still
breathing when found, but he died soon after.
The men were apparently 22 or 2o years of
age and the girls 17.
The party had attended a dance at Crooked
Lake, about three miles from Anoka, in the
evening, and were returning when the acci-
dent happened. It is supposed that the drivre
of the buggy attempted to cross ahead of the
train, which runs very rapidly at this point.

a motion was made to reconsider she action of

The motion to reconsider appealed
at the time to have been lost, but as ic now
transpires was carried. As a strong opinion
prevails that the railway company should not
be fought in the courts, it seems more than
probable that a compromise will be otfected
and the suit withdrawn bv the company.

which have not been heretofore published.
It says the porii >ns omitted relate to personal
matters, and that the .o omissions do not de-
tract from the news value 0* the letters.
The Gazette says it has been asked its rea-
sons for publishing rhese letters now, and in
reply it would say that whiie it doss not be-
lieve that it owes the public anv explanation
or apology, it will present its reasons: F r t,
a desire to aid Dor&e \ w ho, it c'a'ms, has be n

at pioper points to prevent egress from
Brownsville, and will, through one of h;s sur-
geons, take charge of all hospital arrange-

For ivatcy drinkers it is cf th- utmost importance to have at

suitable for daily ztse as a table luxury ; and iu home circles, as at
public banquets, the APGLLINARIS NA TURAL MINERAL

MATAMOROS.
Condition of the Fever—Increase of
Cases, but Decrease of Deatn-Rate.
ISpecial Telegram to The News.l
Matamoros, August 19.—Things are look-
ing black for Matamoros. With the disease
increasing in her suburbs and running like
fild-flre over the neighboring oity of Browns-
ville, with every town, county and wood-pile
in Texas quarantined against her; with the
pert of New Orleans closed to her commerce,
now in addition the Mexican towns and cities
have pursued the same course, even
those to whom yellow jack is
a resident ail the year round.
Besides the border towns on the Rio Grande
and Tampico, Vera Cruz, has declared a quar-
antin; and tho considerable towns of San
Fernando aud burgs in Tamaulipas have cut
off intercourse as iar aa the law allows, an 1
t is iearod that Monterey wiil pursue a simi-
lar course. The mail for Mier is
quarantined three days before be'*ng
allowed to eater that place, and that for
the interior is fumigated there. General Soto
♦ nd Mr. Lewis, who left here some days ago
for Monterey, were put in quarantine for
ei^ht days on reaohing Mier. The epidemic is
still doing terrible work in the suburbs of
this- city, though the number of cases as esti-
mated does not show much change. There
are about 250 oases, which are all in the city,
and from eighteen to twenty new cases this
morning.
The weather is very warm, and there were,
on the 24th instant, eading at 9 a. m. to-day,
as great mortality as during any similar
period from the beginning of the infection.
The figures are 13 deaths; 11 from fever. The
greatest number of deaths for any twenty-
four hours, between 9 a. m. and 9 a. m.t pre-
vious to this evening and during the epidemic,
was on the day ending 9 a. m. on August 6,
and the figures then were 13 deaths, 10 of fever,
or less than figures of to-day. It may be well
to state here that the reports purporting to
come from here reporting from forty to sixty
deaths a day in this city, never had the re-
motest basis of truth, having either been man-
ufactured out of this city by some mendacious
scribe, or were the fruits of some prac-
tical joker, sent off in a private
letter or telegram. We will do the
jokist the justice to say that he evidently
thought the figures so foolishly out of line
as to convict tho lie in the face of it, not be-
lieving any one would be so foolish to believe
-uch reports. Most of the foreigners here are
well, and the sick are doing nicely with the
exception of two little girls of Mrs. Simmon.
To show the extent of the disease and gtn
eral short time of most of the cases, the
police estimate that during the first
naif of this month there were over
2100 cases of the disease in the town, a large
per ceatago in a place of 10,000 inhabitants.
At this rate another month or so will see an
end to the infection as there will be no one
;eft to have the complaint; all will have it or
will have died. In Brownsville the disease is
more wide spread, being in every part of the
oity and attacking all classes of the commu-
nity. There are at least 200 cases there with
15 or 20 new cases a day. The bulk of the
sick have it lightly and there are not many
deaths.
Siuce the last report none have died. Mr.
McCarty, the telegraph operator of the mili-
tary line, is down, as are a number of others.
Toe English steamer Australian, from Liver-
pool, for Corpus Chnsti, Brazos San Diego
and Taaipico, is expected daily off Corpus.
She has been ordered to take no passengers
aboard. Arrangements wiil be made to lighter
her cargo at Brazos with properly arranged
lighters to prevent infection. The vessel is
lying about live ciiles from shore.
The Brownsville quarantine is quite strict-
ly kept. Even one solitary doctor who passed
a few times back and forth, was notifiod not
to do so any more, but it is noted that the
smugglers still pa^s freeiy, and he who wants
a letter or package taken to the other side has
no uifficuifey in finding a messenger.

stant while tbey were marching through the

spiracy was discovered.

elaborating the plot is located in Italy, while
its employes are engaged in constructing
bombs in Trieste. A large number of the lat-
ter, dwelling in the lowest quarters of the

gross fraud and peculation under Tiffany's ad-
ministration are alleged to be overwhelming.

break, but one of their squaws gave the whites

mies of the Toatos, ware armed and turned out

day they had fixed for the outbreak.

New l ork quarantine.
New York. Augu t 19.—Dr. Walter de
Foresi, of the city sanitary department,
caused a general alarm to be sent out from
police headquarters yesterdan atternoon on
account of a violation of the quarantine regu-
lations by two or three small Southern coast-
ers, and search was made for ve sels along the
wharves until 6 o'olock, at which time they
had not beeu round. Dr. Smith, the health
officer, said that on Thursday he was informed
that several vessels had gone up to ihe city
without anchoring or waiting for an inspec-
tion.
The quarantine regulations had already
been violated several times in this manner by
t;mall vessels that come up from South r*n
ports, principally from the Carolines with
freights. He had giveu them several warn-
ings already, and the next time that he
caught the offenders he would have them
puuiithed as the law prescribes; he was now
going to enforce the rules strictly, «s he heard
that about, fifty vessels were being laden with
timber at Pensacola, wnere yellow fever now
prevails.
The two Southern ships which passed quar-
antine withou* their papers and hud taken
alarm at the search for them, yesterday re-
turned to quarantine to pass through the
necessary forms.
