Of Whitesboro.
OCk'nCKKT.
Wt place at the head of our col
umn* the name of J. W. Throck-
morton, for Congress, from the Third
Cpngseaaloiiri ^strict. Mr. Throck-
morton was dot our, first choice for
the position, though we admire the
man and appreciate his services in
behalf of our State during a long and
acu. e public life. He was not our
toice, because we desired to see a
man in Congress who was pledged
to guard well the interests of the
people against all encroachments of
corporations, and who was not like-
ly to be influenced by railroads other
monopolies. We find, however,
that a very large majority of the
Democracy of this district, as well as
nearly the entire Democratic press,
have an abiding confidence in Mr.
Throckmorton, while the party has
given him their unanimous endorse-
ment through their delegates at
the Fort Worth Convention.
We stated our preference early in
the campaign, but at the same time
declared our determination to abide
by the nomination of the Congress-
ional Convention. We do not now
propose to stubbornly oppos- the
judgment of the best men in the par-
ty, consequently hoist the name of
Hon. f. W. Throckmorton, for Con-
gress, and shall give him our earn-
est support.
For the State Senate our choice is
X. $. Craven, of Whitesboro. Mr.
Craven is a young man of ability,
and we have every reason to believe
he will serve his district faithfully
and without sectional prejudice.
This is ail this section asks.
That Mr. Craven is rtearly the
'unanimous choice of Denison and
vicinity, there is no doubt, and we
have as little doubt of his election
by a rousing majority.
Gov. Ames, of Mississippi, is still
making efforts to get the President
to send troops to Vicksburg during
the coming election, claiming the
public peace is in danger. Per con-
tra nearly every mail tarries letters
to Washington from reputable citi-
zens bf the city, protesting against
such ft course as unwarranted, and
asierting that troops are only want-
ed to Intimidate voters.
Later diapatches confirm the re-
port that Manager Prindle has ab-
sconded with $3003300 belonging to
the People’s tin Insurance Compa-
ny, Philadelphia. This loss will
probably cause the company to sus-
pend. __
CULLING or CON*RADIC-
TftC Qclahoma Star makes the
followi ng correction: .
SomO irresponsible correspondent
of the Kft nsas City Times has writ-
ten a letter ' Jto that paper, stating
that .Mr. W ood McMillan had been
killed at Cat Ido in a quarrel. Noth-
ing could be . further from the truth.
In the first pit '-ce there has been no
man killed hei/e, in a quarrel or
otherwise, for a year past; and in
the second place • Mr. McMillan has
never had any quarrel or difficulty
with anybody here or in this vicini-
ty. If he has an et ietny in the whole
country it is someth ing more than
we know of. Whoe ver started the
story should be ashatiwd of having
caused so much distia*' to Mr, Mc-
Millan’s wife and ftid Wither.
