Dog gone It. man. It's dog days,
You can tell It without fall.
’For every man who can make a raise,
Is piking for the sale.
There is more trouble in town than
there has been for many a day. And
it's all because of a dog day sale.
Early this morning a citizen from
the suburbs came wandering in to
the tax collector’s office and paid his
dog tax. “I thought it was about
time.” ho said, “to get busy and save
the dog, when I heard a dog day sale
was going on. I kept neglecting it,
but I want to save my dog, so I guess
It’s up to me to put up the money.”
And ho paid the coin to save his dog
from the dog day sale.
Chief of Police John Janies was
much puzzled this morning when two
men approached him and asked if it
was necessary to muzzle their dogs to
keep them from being sold. He said
It wasn’t, but still they weren’t satis-
fied. “We heard there was goin’ to
be a dog day sale, so we thought it
was to sell all dogs without muzzles
on. Are you sure about It?” they per-
sisted.
“Oh, pshaw." said the chief, “that's
just some of Jim Boyd's foolishness.
Run up to the corner there and you’ll
find out about it,”

CONDITIONS ARE INTOLERABLE.
Union Depot During Busy Hours Pre-
sents Scene of Bedlam.
A , Conditions at the Denison union sta-
of No. 487 North East street, are visit- „„
ing in Peloskey, Mich., where they tlon are becom,n* ,nt0lerabre- With
all of the roads handling a heavy pas-
senger business, the express compa-
nies doing a big business and mail
heavy, there Is such a Jamboree, such
confusion, such danger as can not be
in the Southwest. On a smaller scale
(he Denison union station is a counter-
part of that at Kansas City, which Is
said to be the worst ln the world.
Today from 11:30 until 2 o’clock th*
station was a bedlam. Men, women,
children and dogs were massed to-
gether in tho waiting room and on the
platforms, while loaded trucks were
pushed through the crowds and hurry-
lag trainmen fought their way
through.
On the Frisco side today the condi-
tions were worse than usual. Four
trucks were loaded from the express
car and as the platform was narrow
they had to be pushed against the
walls as nearly as possible, leaving
Jim Townsan.
Misses Lucie Robinson of Wax*-
hachle and Alice Kirkpatrick of Mc-
Kinney returned yesterday to their

for only a very small portion and noth-
ing hut the hot sun outside.
Seats should at least, be provided
for the women and children who aro
compelled to wait. The hard board

compelled to sit 1* not a very pleasant
resting place.
Convention Hall, Dallas, Tex., Aug.
16,—(12; 20 p. m )—When the state
Democratic convention was called to
order for today's session the result of
the ballot taken last night was an-
nounced. Tho last three figures In
each candidate's vote represent deci-
mals of one conventional delegate
vote. The ballot results as follows;
T. M. Campbell ..........213.341
O. B. Colquitt ...........169.934
C. K. Bell ..............163.357
M. M. Brooks............156.318
Immediately following the an-
nouncement of the result of the bal-
lot Judge Brooks, in a speech to the
convention, withdrew from the race.
Owing to thV confusion and the
slowness of the count under the new
Terrell election law, the delegates are
expressing the hope ihat never again
will they be compelled to act under
its provisions.
The convention has Just adopted
the following amendment to the plat-
form, as a specific expression on the
trust question;
‘Be ln resolved by the Democrats of
Texas, That trusts, monopolies and
combinations in restraint of trade are
contrary to the genius of free govern-
ment and are the most insidious agen-
cies* used to oppress the people and
destroy the freedom of citizen*; and
we denounce all such unlawful com-
binations and pledge the full power
of the Democratic party to utterly, de-
stroy them In this state. We heartily
approve the action of our attorney
general in vigorously prosecuting vio-
lation* of the anti-trust law."
The convention has been In uproar
for an hour over an attempt of a ma-
jority of Bexar County delegation to
bind the minority by the unit rule,
notwithstanding the county conven-
tion did not so Instruct the delegation.
State Chairman Andrews, who is
temporarily in presiding officer's
chair, ruled that a majority of dele-
gates from any county can bind the
minority.
John M. Duncan of Smith County,
In an impassioned speech, contended
against this and appealed from the
ruling of the chair. On viva voce vote
the result was so close that a roll call
was demanded. The confusion was so
great that Duncan finally withdrew
the appeal and the roll call on the
Texas stands for constitutional gov-
ernment and for laws passed there-
under which are no respecter of per-
sona; for law and order and for the
enforcement of laws against all alike;
for freedom of the citizen and pro-
tection to him against all unlawful
violence and Interference from what-
ever source; for simplicity and econo-
my in all public affairs and against all
abuse of power; for representative
government in which all public offi-
cers arc the servants and not the mas-
ters of the people, and who shall bo
always accountable to their coustliu-
ents; for distinction In tho three great
powers ot government—the legislative,
executive and judicial: for honest and
equal taxation and for Just distribu-
tion of the burdens of government and
for tho greatest liberty of the
citizens which is consistent with pub-,
lie good. These are some of the es-
sentials of our free government for
which tho Texas Democracy has ever
stood and for which it will continue to
battle.
1. We endorse and commend the
present administration of Governor S.
W. T. Lanham as faithful to the Inter-
ests of the people of Texas and re-
turn the thanks of the Democracy
to our state officials for their faith-
fulness and efficiency ln office.
2. We demand that the next legis-
lature enact such a law’ as will define

3. We favor the enactment by the

be encouraged by teaching the ele-
ments of agriculture and the industrial
arts; that the Agricultural and Me-
chanical College, the College of In-
dustrial Arts for Girls and the State
Normal Colleges be authorized to
grant diplomas having the force of
state teachers' certificates to all who
complete the necessary course of
study us graduates in the industrial
branches; we recommend that liberal
support he provided for the Agricul-
tural and Mechanical College, the 'x-
perlment stations, the Farmers’ insti-
tute, the College of Industrial 'Arts
for Girls and the Texas State Univer-
sity for the teaching and trainng of
our youths and the more liberal educa-
tion of our citizenship; we recom-
mend that the principle of county tax-
ation for school purposes be adopted;
we demand that the Constitutional re-
qulrement for at least six months’
term of free school for each child la
each year be complied with.
Your committee on platform and

declare our full faith in his integ-
rity, and we believe that these sland-
ers have emanated from persons who
have by design wilfully attacked him
for the specific purpose of weakening
his Influence as tho great champion
of the Interests of the people.
3. Resolved, That In the death of
f x-Gov. F. R. Lubbock, Hon. John H.
