GOV. HOGG'S SPEECH.
His Friends Are Loth to Believe He
Said the Words Reported
from Austin.
Fort Worth Comments—Sentiment at Gaines-
ville—Hogg's Friends Mostlv Wait
and Won't Talk Yet.
Fort Worth, Tex., July 19.-The report of
Gov. Hogg's Austin speech of yesterday,
exclusively in The News of to-day, has been
the topic of conversation here to-day. The
sentiments expressed by him have met
with universal condemnation. His strong-
est friends are loth to believe their quandom
Idol has been correctly reported and decline
to express themselves until additional con-
firmation is at hand. All realize the fact
that The News' reports are accurate, but
there are those who are "hoping against
hope" as it were who are silent for the
present. The News reporter questioned
more than a dozen well known friends of
the governor anent the matter to-day. All
declined to talk for publication for the pres-
ent, however. It is generally admitted here,
however, that his speech is the sensation
of the hour and many say: "Well,^ I am
not surprised at anything Hogg does."
When asked if he had read the governor s
Speech Hon. A. L. Matlock said: "Ves, I
have read it. I think it more sensational
than patriotic. It is unfortunate that the
governor of a great state like Texas shouia
give expression to such sentiments at such
a time as this. The present is no time to
be encouraging the restless spirit of com-
munism and anarchy now threatening the
very existence of our republican institu-
tions. Debs and all his following will be
well pleased with the sentiments expressed
by Gov. Hogg, and no doubt resolutions
will be passed at an early day indorsing
him. The attacks of such men as Waite,
Altgeld and Hogg on President Cleveland
for performing his duty under the constitu-
tion in sending federal troops to protect the
lives and property of citizens from the at-
tacks of infuriated mobs of anarchists and
incendiaries will, it is to be hoped, open the
eyes of the people to the fact that it is nec-
essary hereafter in selecting a governor to
choose a man not in such thorough accord
with the dissatisfied element immigrating
yearly to this country from the slums of
Europe, and more in harmony with the ge-
r.ius of our free American institutions.
When a government ceases to protect the
lives, liberty and property of its citizens
fiom unlawful interference, from whatever
source it may come, then it is a failure.
President Cleveland, acting under his con-
stitutional authority, proved himself a pa-
triot and well worthy of the great trust re-
posed in him by the American people when
lie, in defiance of the demagogic protests
of Altgeld, sent federal troops to Chicago
and summarily suppressed what bade fair
to prove a bloody revolution, and the Amer-
ican people will honor him for it. If the
same state of affairs existed in Texas that
existed in Illinois I dare say President
Cleveland would not hesitate to send troops
to Texas in spite of the threats of Gov.
Hogg to stop him; and the people of Texas
would uphold him and honor him for it. I
fear that Gov. Hogg has been reading
'Caesar's Column.' written by Ignatius Don-
nelly, and has taken it seriously."
Said Judge B. M. Baker of Canadian, who
has just withdrawn from the race for con-
gress in the thirteenth district, to The
News reporter: "To say I am surprised
that Gov. Hogg should utter such senti-
ments but faintly expresses my feelings. I
do not and cannot believe he has been ac-
curately reported. I have always been an
admirer and supporter of Gov. Hogg in the
past. I entertain no such sentiments as he
has expressed if the published reports be
true. If he has been correctly reported all
I can say is that I am done with him."
• Said Senator James W. Swayne: "Gov.
Hogg did not say it. The News reporter
has misrepresented him. or rather has
placed a meaning upon his words not in-
tended."
That the governor's words have for the
time being taken away the breath of the
politicians is a fact demonstrated by the
refusal for the present of many of both his
friends and opponents to discuss it.
The News reporter mingled freely among
the 250 soldier boys in the city to-night en
route home from the state encampment.
All who would express themselves condemn
the utterances of Gov. Hogg yesterday. In
no single instance was found a man who
(heard the governor's remarks who did not
fully verify The News report.
EX-CONFEDERATE SENTIMENT.
Waco, Tex., July 19.—Among the fore-
most manufacturers and capitalists of
Waco is Mr. W. D. Lacy, who was one of
the party that accompanied Gov. Hogg on
the recent tour of the north. Mr. Lacy had
just finished reading the comments on the
first page of The Dallas News on the utter-
ances of Gov. Hogg in his speech to the
state military at Austin yesterday: "I
hope Gov. Hogg's speech," Mr. Lacy said,
"did not justify the criticism. I stayed
with the governor from Texas to Washing-
ton. I did not hear his Boston speech on
account of business engagements which
prevented my attending on that occasion.
Other speecnes of the governor, which I
heard and his conversations on the trip led
me to believe that he realized the neces-
sity for the action of President Cleveland
respecting the Chicago riots."
Here Mr. Lacy paused and finished read-
ing the Austin dispatch. After getting
through with Gov. Hogg's speech lie con-
tinued: "The first part of the governor's
remarks is all right. That is the way he
talked while at the north. I agree with the
governor in thinking that the times por-
tend more trouble, but I am satisfied with
the action of President Cleveland and be-
lieve he did right to send troops to Chicago.
In his speech at Philadelphia Gov. Hogg
used expressions similar to some of his ut-
terances at the state capital yesterday.
For example I remember his saying: M see
before me some who will be called upon to
lead the hosts whose business it will be to
defend the stars and stripes and 1 have
faith in your nerve and patriotism.' That
was the purport of his preface to a promise
that Texas would be in line with those who
would defend the union. He did not then,
or on any other occasion on that trip, talk
about disintegration of the union or Texas
'standing on the constitution of 1836 and
going it alone as a republic again.' "
"Were you a confederate soldier, Mr.
Lacy?" the reporter inquired.
"Yes, that I was," Mr. Lacy replied, "but
I am back in the union again, glad to be in
1t and I want it preserved. I do not be-
lieve there will be a southern veteran found
indorsing the sentiments of the governor
wherein they appear to point to resistance
of the general government in pursuit of
Its duty in suppression of disorder and sus-
taining the law.'*
Hon. Setlh P. Mills, representative of
(McLennan county in the legislature, was
(holding a copy of The News in his hand
«ind laughing heartily in a circle of friends,
rwhen The News reporter approached. Ad-
dressing those present Mr. Mills said:
"It is evident that Gov. Hogg lost his
temper about something. No one is angry
except the governor. Everybody my way
is pleased with the general outlook. Gov.
ilogg's threat reminds me of Hon. Jdhn
Ireland in his second term. You know
rwhen he was governor Mr. Ireland got into
a temper and wanted to whip Mexico, with-
out reference to the government at Wash-
dngton."
The general expression hp<re is unqualified
disapproval of Gov. Hogg's utterances. Mr.
Henry Milbank of Florida, an ex-confedr
tirate, «aid:
"If Che Texas governor had seen Lee,
Longsfreet, the two Hills, J. E. B. Stuart,
fctonewall Jackson, Beauregard, the two
Johnstons, Bragg, Hardee, Cleburne, Floyd
and all those confederate leaders with their
"hosts in 1861 and then took a look at those
f*ame hosts, those of them still alive in
1865, he would have known better than to
preach resistance against Uncle Sam and
Recession. I think if Gov. Hogg should get
a glimpse of a battlefield and the corpses,
lie w>uld eay with Falstaff: 'I like not
euch grinnimg honor as Sir Walter hath.' "
Dr. D. R. Wallace said: "I looked for
•Gov. Hogg to say something of that sort,
after hi? order to the Southern Pacific
to haul th-ose tramps. It is all one consist-
ent line of conduct."
Col. R. B. Parrott-^Nothing that Gov.
Uog£ said on the recent trip nurth indi-
cted that he .sympathized with disorderly
elements. His remarks at Austin yester-
day were imprudent. I suppose he was
talking to the boys for political effect. He
«visually do as not know war even in
theory. H» was never in a war. Secession
Is us dead as slavery in the south, if the
rnltrtd States government shouKl make a
call for troop* it would get 2W.000 youiig
men from Texas of the finest aoUMers the
world ever saw. The stars and stripes
feeling is rampant 1n this region. I believe
Gov. Hogg would support the governm^t
although his words, whitch I do not con-
strue to express his feelings, appear to
signify he would not. The governor is a
great stickler for states rights. I aipprove
of President Cleveland's course toward the
strike. It is always better for the national
troops to be used in times of riot. The
state troops are acquainted with everybody
and If they fire a volley they would be
haunted with the .results. The federal
troops come when sent for, fire a volley
when the case makes an order to that ef-
fect necessary, then march away. The
dates pay to keep up tihe troops and at
need the states are entitled to the use of
the machine." „ ,
Col. R. B. Parrott is an ex-confederate
soldier. He was one the tourists with
Gov. Hogg on the lat> trip.
Mr. E. R. Rotan, another Waco member
of Gov. Hogg's party north, after reading
the governor's expressions referred to them
in terms about coinciding with the views of
Messrs. Lacy and Parrott. Mr. Rotan ap-
proves of President Cleveland's course.
SENTIMENT IN DALLAS.
Dallas, Tex., July 20.
Gov. Hogg's speech at Austin on Wednes-
day in accepting a watch from the officers
of the Texas volunteer guard created a sen-
sation in Dallas yesterday.
There was quite a discussion in the may-
or's office, during a lull "in which Mayor
Barry said: "I have repeatedly declined to
be interviewed on political issues, but I
think this will go down into history as the
great 'liver and lights' speech. It is a com-
panion piece to Gov. Hogg's invitation to
Frye's tramps to become citizens of Texas.
I believe the governor must have been
thinking about Chicago being the great
slaughtering pen of the nation when he got
off that gory expression about great four-
teen-story buildings covered with liver,
lights, and so forth. I hardly think the
governor is serious."
Mr. Tom Work, assistant city attorney,
said: "Gov. Hogg's speech reminds me of
what old Cornelius Vanderbllt said of Col.
Elliot F. Shepard, his son-in-law. Rv the
way, what was it old Vanderbilt said?"
Down at the Exchange national bank,
Col John N. Simpson was sitting in the
way, being twitted about the recent
•trip of Gov. Hogg to New York, which was
taken at his suggestion, in order that the
governor might demonstrate to the people
of the effete east that Texas is not un-
friendly to capital and that Texas will pro-
tect capital. Col. Simpson would not be
interviewed.
A man met Chief Justice Henry W
Light foot of the court of appeais on the
street and said: "Judge, if you are re-
eleted, will you take the oath to obey the
constitution of the United States, or' do
you prefer the Texas constitution of 18ob.
Judge Lightfoot smiled and said nothing.
Col. John H. Tray lor, when asked for his
views on the governor's speech, declined
to say anything at first, the governor be-
• - • * " ' " Finally, how-
ling a personal friend of his. Finally, how-
ever, Col. Traylor said: "The less pub-
licity given to the speech of Gov. Hogg to
the Texas volunteer guard at Austin yes-
terday, the better for the reputation of the
governor and for the state. The conditions
in the United States do not justify the
pessimistic position assumed by the gov-
ernor. No such political convulsions as he
suggests are probable. There is no reason
why t'his government should not continue
to exist in its present form for fifty or
a hundred years before it will become so
populous as to endanger republican institu-
tions. if they ever are endangered. Why,
at this time especially, should the gov-
ernor refer to the president's action in en-
forcing order in Chicago? There is no
middle ground. The law must be supreme,
or It is only a football to bejdeked around,
which can but result in anarchy. There is
a large silent, conservative element
throughout the United States who will help
to enforce the law when the crisis comes.
This element is just, and wants such legis-
lation as will protect the laborer agauist
the often unjust exactions of capital. They
don't want any more slavery in this coun-
try, and think there should be federal legis-
lation on this line. The recent visit of the
governor north, and the speeches he made,
and the almost complete exemption of
Texas from complications by reason of the
recent strike, placed the state in a proper
and favorable light before the country, but
the speech more than neutralizes the good
done. Gov. Hogg's talk about 'the time
being close at hand when the mettle of the
soldiers will be tried;' his language rc-
f rring to 'the fourteen-story buildings in
Chicago,' and his Intimation of resistance
to federal authority and 'under certain con-
ditions setting up a separate republic of
Texas under the constitution of 1836,' are
too absurd to be the utterances of an intel-
ligent, honest, patriotic man, that 1 am
sure the governor is. It only shows that
he is very human, like the rest of us—of
the earth, earthy, and that he should bathe
his head in ice water before he shoots off
his mouth so recklessly again."
There were two or three people in Col.
W. L. Crawford's office on business. The
subject of the governor's speech came up
and Col. Crawford said Gov. Hogg remind-
ed him of the Indian boys at school an
Carlyle, Pa. As long as they were at
school they wore the clothes of civilization
and spoke good English, but the minute
thev returned home they threw away their
clothes, tied a blanket around them and
could never be forced to utter a word of
Emglish.
Senator O. P. Bowser said: "It is to be
regretted that the governor made that
speech at a time when we are inviting capi-
tal to Texas and guaranteeing it protection.
I do not think that Gov. Hogg represents
sentiments of any considerable body of
Texas citizens because the people of Texas
are law-abiding and conservative. They do
not sanction any lawlessness. I do not
think the governor intended to go as tar as
he did." ,
Judges Watts and Aldredge are both
away on their summer vacations. Mr. J.
J. Eckford said: "In one paragraph Gov
Hogg says the young men of Texas will
be called out to defend the stars and stripes
and in the very next breath tries to take
Texas out of the union where her young
men will have to fight the stars and stripes.
Gov. Hogg declares for the constitution of
1836. Does he know that the constitution
of 1836 recognizes negro slavery? What
would he do with our present constitution
and how would he get it out of the way.
G'»v. Hogg forgets that tihe states rights
question Avas put to the sword and perished
in 1S35. He largely underrates the strength
of the union and conservative sentiment in
Texas if he thinks anybody is going to
follow him. The people of Texas are for
the union. They tried secession once anil
got enough to last them for a while. They
are for liberty under law, for the pro-
tection of property. They are in common
with the people of the other states of
the south opposed to anarchy in any shape.
Take the governor's proposition that fed-
eral troops cannot legally go into a 'State
except upon the request of the governor.
Suppose a mob is in possession of a state.
The civil authority is paralyzed. The prop-
erty of citizens is being mercilessly de-
stroyed, the'.r lives are endangered or their
liberty menaced. Suppose as was the case
in Illinois recently that the governor re-
fuses either to appeal to the federal gov-
ernment or to order out the local or state
militia. What then is the plain duty of
the federal government? To stand aside,
as Gov. Hogg contends, and permit whole-
sale destruction and wholesale murder to
.go on unimpeded? No, sir. It is the plain
■duty of the president under the constltu
:tion to send federal troops to the scene of
disorder and put down the riot. It Is his
duty to protect the citizen in the enjoy-
ment of everv right guaranteed by the
constitution. His supreme duty is to main
'tain peace and uphold 'V' laws. It £s
•well to recall in the r riots at Chi-
cago that Gov. Altgeld did not order out
■the Illinois state militia till United States
troops were on tihe giround in the active
discharge of their duty as conservators of
the peace. Had Gov. Altgeld acted prompt-
ly and called out his militia when the riot-
ous spirit appeared there might have been
no necessity for the presence of United
States troops in Chicago. Be that as it may
•the governor of Illinois failed t.o do hla
duty while the president rose with daunt-
less courage to the demands of the occa-
sion and mashed the life out of the mob,
a course jubtilia-ble both in law and com-
mon sense and which has received the
unstinted praise of every citizen who
■wishes to see the government maintained
in Its integrity. Gov! Hogg represents no-
body but himself." \
A reporter called at the office# of 'Mr.
Philip Sanger and H\n. W. C. Connor,
Blreet, He said: "1 am out politics and
am ltaokin* up to move with my family
to ■NoIuti county perhaps permanuntly. 1

Mr. O. K. Harry The speech Is all right.
I Indorse every thin* that Hogg has ever
done. The wpeech yesterday suits me.
"Shall I quote It t/hal way In The News?"
"That's what 1 am talking for. I have

Judlfe John Bookhout *ald he was busy
having two men In the office and did not
have time to talk.
Hon, Jesse M. Stronp said he could hard-
ly believe the governor had been correctly
reported, lie did not see how any man
in this day and time could make such a
spewlh. He wild he is a states right demo-
cratic, but cannot Indorse the governor.
Last night Judge T. S. Miller, professor

The News reporter to-night: "We heard
the speech of Gov. Hogg yesterday. It
stunned us. After the watch presentation
we went to our tents and talked the matter
over. We regretted it. We make no se-
cret of It. The News quoted the governor
correctly, as every soldier, without excep-
tion, present will testify. The governors
speech was not approved by the members
of the guard. Had a bomb been exploded
In our camp a greater sensation would not
have resulted."
THE JUVENILE STRIKE.
A Boy Assaulted and His Papers Torn Up—The
Leader Advibes Them to Take a Swim.
Dallas, Tex., July 20.
It was thought upon the arrest of the
local Debs last Wednesday afternoon that
the backbone of the strike of the Times-
Herald newsboys was broken, but up to
sundown last night the thing was still on
and at fever heat. The youthful strikers—
so one of them who had 'his ear In a sling
informed a News reporter—met in a lot
near the negro church on Young street, and
there and then vowed vengeance on
"scabs," after applauding the reading of
Gov. Hogg's speech, In which the direful
forebodings of the French revolution were
predicted for this country, unless the plu-
tocrats listen to reason.
When Che boys emerged from the meet-
ing each of them was wearing the white
badge that is the symbol of 'the lying down
together of the lion and the lamb, but as
the sequel goes to show the behavior of
the strikers—or at least of some of them
■wos anything but lamb-like. It was more
after the temper of the incendiaries in the
suburbs of Chicago and was suggestive of
the lines of Virgil: .
"Thus kids and whelps their dams and
sires express, .
And thus the great we measure by the
The management of the Times-Herald
had all tihe boys needed to put the paper
on the streets, and more were on hand, it
is said, if necessary. This, however did
not convince the juvenile strikers or the
errors of their ways. They had been
reading up on the great Chicago flare, and
they concluded that all they had to do in
order to win was to tight it out, aPPeal to
the sympathy of the bootblacks and make
things warm for the fellows who had taken
their places. With the latter idea a de-
tachment of them 'bore down on a boy
named Jimmle Campbell, who was sei in
the paper. After asking him to walk out,
which he refused to do, they called him
-scab" and other fancy names Seeing
that he was proof to that character of at-
tack. they assaulted him, bloodying his
face and tearing up his papers. Campbell
made an affidavit against Jacob Ahern and
•Max Schutle, charging them with the act.

sneaker said his name was Johnnie Green.
The mention of a bloody nose brought
the w*hole gang to their feet, and in a
moment encircled the News man, jabbering
like iackdaws, so that the English language
was in a state of anarchy. A few; scraps
were extracted from the Jargon, i" follows.

that the people Indorse the action of

GOV. FECK.
Milwaukee, Wis., July 14.—Gov. Peck
says:
"The strike Is on, and now all we want
Is to have It conducted peacefully, be
the outcome what it may. Whatever the
outcome is, we shall all continue to live
and do business at the old stand If we
behave ourselves.
"This Is no time to discuss state rights.
As long as Wisconsin is in the union she
will admit troops ihe president desires
to send, and If he hasn't got enough
regulars we can lend him some. After
this war Is over we will hire a hall and
let the people discuss state rights as long
as they please.
"The labor unions have a perfect right
to strike in Bympa.hy with their friends,
and I am told they will. The best thing
1 know of to keep cool under trying cir-
cumstances Is to take the wives and
babies and go out in the woods, up the
river—anywhere— and put In the days

"Let the fellows who cannot help it
do the talking, but let the majority of
them take a little recreation and they
will all feel better when the order comes
to go to work."

strike ought to be arbitrated the gov-
ernor said;
"I always believe In arbitration in the
beginning. Aq to the strike at present
it Is for those that are interested to set-
tle it."
GOV. CROUNSE.
Omaha, Neb., July 14.—Gov. Crounse
of Nebraska thinks the action of Presi-

"Nebraska is undisturbed and we con-

prospect, but for those states that are
affected I heartily indorse President
Cleveland's words to the governor of
Illinois, as follows:
" 'It seems to me that In this hour of
danger and public distress discussion
may well give way to active effort on
the part of HI in authority to restore
obedience to the law and to protect life
and property.'"
GOV. M'CONNELL.
Boise, Idaho, July 14.—Gov. McConnell
said to me to-day:
"At first we were all anxious to learn
the merits of the case. That time has
gone by. While we believe that Mr.
Pullman's workmen had a grievance
which should be righted, a greater ques-
tion—that of maintaining and supporting
this government that Washington
founded and to perpetuate which so
many sacrifices have been made—now
confronts us, overshadowing all others.
Law and order must be maintained.
Then we will right wrongs of private
individuals, if*ny exist."
EDITORS OB SOUTHERN PAPERS.
Lexington, Ky., July 14.—The question
of state's rights as opposed to the Inter-
ests of the union was settled definitely
by the civil war. Discretion is with the
president as to the necessity of federal
action. Public opinion Is divided as to
whether he should wait until called on
by the governor.
In this ease not one state alone was
threatened, but a large section of the
union. The tendency of the times and
the United States courts Is toward cen-
tralization of federal power. The pres-
ident uses this power with the knowl-
edge of his responsibility. It Is a grave
question, but the preservation of the
national peace through the action of
President Cleveland will be approved by
the people.
THE LEXINGTON PRESS.
threaten men who are at work they iihould
be dealt with by the strong arm of the
law, fur they are disturbers of the public
peace. When the mob benan to burn and
otherwise demolish property in Chicago
four or five duys ago It should have been
promptly met with force enough to demon-
strate that In this country the law Is su-
preme.
Emboldened, however, by the Inaction of
the Jtate and local authorities the mob's
defiance of law and order very naturally
assumed riotous proportions. The forced
intervention of the government will have
a good effect and will probably put an end
to the strike.
Indeed, since the government has taken
hold of the matter It must see to It that
as long as there are men who are willing
and ready to work they shall be given the
privilege without Interference, and that
property shall be safe from the attack of
mob Invasion.
No one can question the right of men to
leave their work, either Individually or
collectively. This is the privilege of every
man, but those who do leave have no right
to interfere w'th those who take their
places, nor to destroy the property of those
from whose employment they voluntarily
depart.
President Debs himself, In every one of
his public announcements, takes this po-
sition, and whether or not he is sincere,
the action of the government is simply in
accord with the utterance of the head of
the strikers. There Is no room for inob
rule in this country, and there Is danger in
temporizing with it. CLARK HOWELL,
Editor Atlanta Constitution.
LOUISIANA.
New Orleans, La., July 14.—Page M.
Baker, Times-Democrat, said to me: "It
is no use blinking at the state of things
which such a situation implies. We are
on the verge of civil war. We may as
well recognize the fact and provide for It
at once and enter upon it with determina-
tion and strenuousness.
"There is no dealing with these riotous
agitators and rioters through the medium
of reason and argument. They admit no
reason but force, therefore must force,
overwhelming force, be brought forthwith
to the scene to compel them to obedience
to the law and to a respect of the consti-
tutional government.
"The government Is merely wasting time
dillydallying with them, as it is doing,
while they continue their career of de-
struction and incendiarism. It is not a
regiment of soldiers that is needed to ad-
minister to those lawless organizations the
lesson that they will have to be taught;
It is an army corps or an army.
"The present is as favorable for a trial
of the issue that lies between the forces
of order and disorder now confronting
each other in Chicago and elsewhere as
there could be. Let the United btates
government therefore take up at once and
in earnest the gauge of battle that has
been thrown in its face and carry the con-
test to its legitimate termination.
"The lovers of law and of lawlessness
will forthwith range themselves on their
respective sides and the result will not
be long ,in doubt."
(Major T. E. Davis of the Picayune says.
"The Picayune has characterized this
formidable outbreak as the beginning of
another civil war. Should It so prove it
will differ vastly and in most marked
characteristics from that of 18Gl-6».
"In the first place the lines of 'battle will
not be drawn on sectional limits. There
will be blood and tears and Imprecations
without limit, but it will be on one side
a movement to maintain public order and
to enforce the law, while on the other it
will be a mad and desperate struggle lor
revenge, for destruction and for a suprem-
acy, which, should it be gained, would
be the triumph of a mob without organi-

ALABAMA.
Montgomery, Ala., July 14.—There is
not a dissenting voice among democrats
in this state as to the action of Presi-
dent Cleveland In sending federal troops
to Chicago. Every intelligent, patriotic
citizen heartily approves it.
Gov. Jones, in a public interview, also
maintains that it was no violation of the
doctrine of state rights, but that the
constitution distinctly clothes the fed-
enal government with the power the
president has exercised.
Sentiment in Alabama could not be
more wholesome and emphatic on this
subject.

Macon, Qa., July 14.—The people, with-
out reference to party, regard the
president's action in sending federal
troops to Chicago to restore order as
perfectly right and proper. It was not
only lawful for the president, but it was
his duty to take such measures for the
suppression of insurrection, and they
point to section 5299 and to the salutary
effect of the same in this Instance.
They think that anarchists should be
looked upon as public enemies and out-
lawed as such and they approve the
president's proclamation so declaring the
rioters. DAILY NEWS.

Dallas, Tex., July 14.—The action of
President Cleveland, having been taken
under the laws ®-hd constitution of the
United States, In the Interest of the
country at large, this action being de-
manded by disastrous conditions grow-
ing out of a strike that extends to inno-
cent persons and unoffending property,
the conservative and thinking masses
In this section indorse the president in
his effort to protect life and property
against Incendiarism in any form.
The distinction the president makes Is
that the law demands the protection of
life, property and public service. The
specific claims of the Pullman strikers
are another proposition entirely.

ADDRESS TO FRUIT GROWERS.
Fort Worth, Tex., July 19.—At a largely-
attended meeting of the Fort Worth Cham-
ber of Commerce this afternoon resolu-
tions were unanimously adopted as follows:
To the fruit and vegetable growers of
the vicinity of Fort Worth: We fully re-
alize the fact that large quantities of veg-
etables and fruit of an excellent quality
are grown near Fort Worth, and that the
home market is not sufficient for such
supply, and that a large amount of money
is lost each year tc the growers of vegeta-
bles for want of a good market and good
shipping facilities to the north.
In our desire to promote the interests of
this country and aid the gardenners in se-
curing better prices for their products,
and also to largely Increase the vegetable
growing Industry of this locality, we beg
leave to call your attention to the paper
recently read before the Texas horitcultur-
al association at Houston, and written by
Mr. J. C. McCabe of Fort Worth, general
freight agent of the Kock Island railroad.
Mr. McCabe very wisely calls attention
to the fact that most of the individual
gardeners do not have enough surplus
products to pay for shipping to the north-
ern markets. He then urges the fruit
and vegetable men of any locality to form
an association and by each furnishing a
few boxes of a certain product a car load
could easily be made up and sent north as
fast freight at a cost of less than one-half
the charges by express.
We beg leave to submit to you, the fruit
and vegetable growers of the vicinity of
Fort Worth, the plan of your uniting and
forming an association for the purpose of
securing such shipping facilities and ob-
taining higher prices for your products.
The plan would probably call for a ware-
house or depot of some kind and for an
agent to be chosen by you to receive and
ship the products and sell them In the
best market and collect and return the
proceeds to you.
Similar associations have for many years
been a practical success In California and
in other states, and are considered a neces-
sity by their members.
The markets of a large part of Missouri,
Kansas, Colorado, Iowa, Nebraska and Illi-
nois can be reached from Fort Worth in
thirty-six to forty-eight hours, while it
takes twice that time from California, and
our products mature from one to two
months earlier than those of the states
named; besides Texas products are in good
demand and may be preferred to those or
CWe°Fnvite each fruit and vegetable grow-
er who can market his products at fort
Worth to send in writing his opinion or
the above Ideas to the secretary of the
Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce, stating
if he is willing to join an association ot
the kind and if the same can be success-
fully organized for thi3 season, or if t
should be gotten ready for the spring of
^While we believe such an association
should be exclusively controlled by your-
selves, we pledge to you our support and
encouragement and such Influence as^ we
