The editor of the- Gazetteer feels
gratified to the daily press ot the tqwn for
their voluntary expressions of condem-
nation of the uncalled for attack made
upon him by the county attorney of Gray-
son county, but he would regret exceed-
ingly to see them torment a personal dif-
ficulty on his account. It is barely pos-
sible the man is getting more attention
than he deserves.
Maxwell to be Hung.
The court has at last decided that

little over a year ago, shall be hnng
on the 27th of August next. Max-
well’s attorneys are trying to get a
new trial, but Mr. Jacobs, of Ja-
cob’s Bazaar says all this will not
keep him trom selling off his sum-
mer stock of goods at prices that
cannot but please the most economi-
cal, He hasn’t any presents to of-
fer customers, but he assures every-
one buying goods at the Bazaar,
that they will get goods a great deal
cheaper at this establishment than
any other house in North Texas.
Every piece of summer goods will
be sold below first cost. He has
quite a stock of summer goods on
hand, and wants to close them out
to make room for his fall stock, so if
there is anyone in this part of the
country that wants summer goods at
prices never before heard of, Jacob’s
Bazaar is the place to buy them.
The ladies are especially invited to
cali.and|examine some cheap bargains
in millinery which has only a limi-
ted supply. Don't say. On, well,
this is only an advertising scheme,
just merely to keep the name of the
Bazaar before the public, but he
gives you his word there are special
bargains for everyone wishing sum-
mer goods. Go to him, and he will
make your eyes open with astonish-
ment at the awful low prices he
has placed on summer goods.

We publish in another column a call
signed by a large number of our citizens,
asking Dr. J. C. Feild to submit his name
as a candidate for local representative,
pledging him their support. The doctor
responds favorably and will at once enter
upon the canvass. Dr. Feild was among
the first to cast his lot in Denison and is
known tar and wide as one of our fore-
most citizens. His acquaintance through-
out the county is extensive, and his qua-
lifications professionally and as a busi-
ness man are universally recognized. His
views on the leading questions at issue in
this state likelv to call for legislation are
in accord with the sentiments of those
men of cool judgment and keen foresight,
who mould public opinion, and if he
should be elected, the people may rest
assured of one thing, that Dr. Feild will
never swerve from what he believes is his
line ot duty. The Gazetteer is for the
Doc tor.
We learn from the Courier that C. M.
Etter and sop, of Sherman, have started
on a tour through the Northern States.
Embarrassed, Bat Hot Basted.
Great astonishment was occasioned in
business circles on Friday morning by the
intelligence that the night previous at 7
o’clock, Deputv Sheriff Middleton had
closed the large and popular hardware
establishment of Frank M. Robinson fit
Co., by virtue of a writ ot attachment is-
sued by the district clerk to secure the
payment of a liability of $15,000 to the
State National bank" of this city. The
firm was composed of Frank M. Robinson,
resident partner and manager, and J. B.
Pillow of Helena, Ark. We are informed
that during fhe past two years the firm
have had aCtirrent liability with the bank
amounting to from $13,000 to $15,000,
and that the attachment at this time is
due to a report of Mr. Pillow's attempting
to shift his property into hands of rela-
tives. This is gathered from what is said
on the Street and consequently not re-
iable. We feel certain that it has not
been occasioned bv any overt act of Mr.
Robinson, who has always conducted
himself as a correct, straightforward busi-
ness man. His friends are numerous and
universally regret that such serious com-
plications have overtaken him in His busi-
ness relations. The stock and fixtures of
the business amount to about $25,000, and
will be sold in about thirty days. Mr.
Robinson states that the liabilities, apart
from the debt due the bank, will amount
to some $5,000. He further states that it
is upon his business he depends for his
living and his reputation here is worth
too much to him to be willingly handed
over to another. He will therefore make
all possible effort by which he may effect
a settlement with the creditors of the
firm and resume his former bestness at
the old stand.

no doubt Mr. Ansley will make a

Notwithstanding the extraordinarily hot
weather the attendance at the Horticul-

was good. A most attractive arrange-
ment ot the various exhibits wm made ia
the building, 1x4 Mainsteet, and the vis-
itors who attended were entertained
sumptuously on watermelons kept on ice
for the purpose. In the immediate fore-
ground, mounted upon a box, wm a fifty-
pound watermelon cut in halt and froaen
within an enormous block of ice; just
behind this, upon one of the long tables,
was stretched an admirable prospectus of
the Denison fit Washita Valley R’y, with
silver cross-lies and rails bearing a flora)
representation of a locomotive, the ex-
hibit of Mrs. B. C. Murray. This was a
feature much admired and commented
upon. Farther on came a large collec-

fruits and vegetables; then an exhibit ot
domestic wines and vinegar, and on down
to the furthest end of the long room
there stretched an array of grapes, apples,
peaches, plums, crab apples, and pears

desire and of admiration. There were
onions, corn, beets and beans in great

sweet potatoes there were some excellent

display of potted plants and flowers,

In this issue of the Gazetteer
we have the pleasure of announcing
the name of A. G. Moseley as
candidate for county judge. While
it is not our business to indulge in
extravagant praise of any candidate
or to overrate the prospects of any
one, we can truthfully state of Mr.
Moseley that he is highly qualified
to fill the position he seeks. He is
a clear brained lawyer and an honest
man. Though comparatively a
young man he stands high at the
bar and is looked upon by the law-
yers and those with whom he has
come in contact, as a man who has
no superior at the bar Vof his age
His record as a school tetScber is one
of which he should feel proud. He
had charge of the high school of
Clarksville, Tennessee, soon after
graduating at the University of
Nashville, after which he came to
Texas and was appointed principal
of the school at Mexia. He has
been practicing law about three
years and living in Denison, where
he has always been found upright
and honorable. His candidacy is
favorably looked upon in all parts
of the county, as the people recog-
nize the necessity for having a prac-
tical educator, as well as a good
business lawyer for County Judge.

Two Freight Trains Meet on a Orado soar
Warner Switch-- -Cheat Destruction
One Man Fatally Eon.
At 8:30 p. m, Friday, as south bound
train 131, loaded with coal, was pulling
up the steep grade a half mile south of
Warner Switch, Engineer Hartford Mc-
Gee observed around the curve at a short
distance in advance of him, train No. 134,
with 17 empty coal can and 8 can of
stock, approaching at full speed. He re-
versed his engine, but seeing that a colli-
sion was inevitable, he left nte train, fol-
lowed by Conductor Darlington and the
rest of the crew. Engineer Ragland
made an effort to stop his train, but see-
ing it would be futile, Jumped from the
doomed locomotive, and the train* met.
There was a crash that might have been
heard a half mile. Coal can were piled
up on top of locomotives or hurled in a
chaotic mass at the bottom of the steep
grade. Trucks from under the can were
thrown a distance ot 75 feet Into the ad-
jacent timber. There was one pile of
ruin for almost the entire length of the
north bound train, and how the 8 can of
stock kept the track Is a mystery. The
heavy loads of the south bound train had
the effect of making her casualties lese
serious than those ot 134. Her locomo-
tive was badly smashed up in front and
thrown off the track, and one car de-
railed, but beyond this she sustained no
serious damage. Three empty coal can
were thrown on top of the locomotive of
134, smashing'It out of all recognition,
while 11 other can were distributed
peacemeal all along both sides of the
grade. Two men, named Ellsworth Ham-
mer and S. B. Roberts, riding on the
fttth car of 134, didn’t have time to get
off. Hammer was thrown twenty feet In
the air and lit with his head against a
beam, while a piece of Iron sticking up
from a break beam, penetrated his groin,
inflicting en ugly and probably fatal
wound. His arm and hip are also fear-
fully mangled.
Roberts escaped without a scratch. On
receipt of the news at this point. Mast
Mechanic Clark, in charge of a wrecker,
pulled out for the scene of the disaster
end by 5 o’clock bad the track cleared for
travel. The man Hammer is still lying

with this paper three weeks ago, has ac-
cepted a situation as city editor of the

her best ones. He has been for ten yean
afnewspaper man in this city, ia familiar
with all the ways and means of overtaking

when he does get them. He is a desira-
ble acquisition to the Nesrs and will vastly
