Sam Jones discusses wicked-
ness in high places as follows:
“ Talk about wickedness! Look at
Matt Quay! There you find it per-
sonified. Unless he repents he
will go where the fire dieth not.”
J. K. Wester's friends in Ten-
nessee want Judge Jones to tell
who it is circulating an evil report
on him, and the friends of the
school and of Wester, in Jacks-
boro would also like to know who
it is.________
To precinct chairmen: Send to
the chairman of the Democratic
Executive Committee, at your ear-
liest opportunity, the number of
men who will attend the county
convention, that arrangements
may be made to entertain them.
Col. Patterson, in his address
before the state Democratic con-
vention of Tennessee said, farm-
ers are naturally Democrats, be-
cause they do not turn their faces
upward like sunflowers, asking
the interference and the bounties
of government.
Says the Memphis Avalanche:
“Michigan is thinking of pnttinga
tariff duty on celery raised in In-
diana. And why should she not.?
Are not Michigan gardeners en-
titled td the same protection
against the competition of Indiana
as of British celery! ”
Prof. J. K. Westerhas resided
here for five or six years, and the
report named in Jones’ letter is
the first and only one we have heard
derogatory to Wester’s character,
and never heard of that until we
saw the letter referred to. Mr.
Wester, as an honest Democrat,
by simply doing his duty as chair-
man of the Democratic County
Executive Committee may be
“obnoxious” to some parties, but
that is no reason for circulating a
slanderous report on him to the
detriuftent of the school or Iris un-
tarnished name. The friends of
Jack County Educational Insti-
tute, as soon as they see the state-
ment of Wester’s Tennessee
friends, will thank them for their
prompt, decisive and unsolicited
denial of the report spoken of by
Judge Jones.
The Dallas Hews in its column
devoted to the craft, says: “ It is
pleasant to note that even in the
midst of the campaign the devel-
opment of the state and commer-
cial and material welfare of the
communities upon which the pa-
pers depend for support and ad-
vancement are not lost sight of.
Does the newspaper catch its in-
spiration of push and enterprise
from the progressive people in the
rapidly growing and progressive
sections of Texas or is the spirit
of progress infused into the peo-
ple by the wide-awake and enter-
prising ptees ? Let the reader ex-
amine the columns of the paper
which is a daily or weekly visitor
to his fireside and answer the
question for himself. The chances
are he will acknowledge that the
paper has generally been found at
the head of the procession.
who will work
week to week,and from year to year
to sustain himself and his plans by
[breaking down ihe characters of
others. Shakespeare said: “Who
steals my purse, steals trash; but
he that filches from me my good
name robs me of that which not
enriches him, and makes me poor
indeed.” Just so. And while a
starving, vagabond tramp might
offer some excuse for stealing
something to sustain his worthless
life, what excuse can a man offer
for trying to#fcjure men who have
never in any way done him harm?
How long will the people tolerate
such conduct ?
It is requested that the chair-
men of each precinct send to the
chairman of the County Demo-
cratic Executive Committee, J. K.
Wester, the probable number of
men who will attend the county
Democratic convention to nomi-
nate candidates for county offices;
that the proper arrangements may
be made for their entertainment.
The nominating convention will
meet Saturday, the 2nd day of
August, and tlie precinct conven-
tions will meet next Saturday. It
is the duty of every Democrat in
the county to attend the conven-
tions in their respective precincts.
There are a number of good men
in the Democratic party from
which to choose officers, and it is
hoped the voters of the county
will avail themselves of the op-
portunity to select a strong ticket
and every man then work for its
nor of any such immorality as that
mentioned in said letter, viz.: the
seduction-of a young lady. Mr.
Wester had not, to my knowledge,
taken any prominent part in poli-
tics when he left this county, but
most of his relatives here are
Democrats, and though I am my-
self a Republican I deem it just
to say that they are considered as
good citizens as we have in the
county. I am intimately acquainted
with his father John H. Wester,
and I say without hesitation that
he is among the best citizens of
this county and I do not believe
that his son is guilty of the con-
duct mentioned in said letter.

jealousies, men who will work for
its development and upbuilding
instead of its destruction. The
Democrats have the opportunity
to do their county a lasting good
and honor, and of showing that
they are desirous of pushing her
to the front rank in every way, by
giving her good, progressive men
for officers.
The Weatherford Constitution
has purchased the entire business
and all machinery belonging to
the Sun Publishing company.
* Messrs. Hoenys have
time desired to retire from tlie
newspaper business, and offered
the Constitution the Sun, which
was accepted. The Messrs. Hoe-
nys have been in Weatherford
for several years, and have worked
earnestly and faithfully for th'eir
town and county, and while the
„ Gazette regrets their retirement
from among the newspaper frater-
nity of Texas, it wishes the Con-
stitution success in its double un-
dertaking of supplying the place
< so long and ably filled by the Bun
in addition to its own useful sphere.
Parties are beginning to look
for honses preparatory to locating
here for the opening of school.
From the present outlook it seems
that a few more cottages might
rent well, as the demand for them
is likely to exceed the number
for rent. Everyone who is inter-
ested in the success of the school
and prosperity of the town will
certainly do all they can to ac-
commodate those who are look-
ing for places. Everyone can do
much for his connty, town and
business, by assisting in building
up every enterprise which bene-
fits the people. Now is the time
for the citizens of Jacksboro to
prove themselves true workers
for all these things.
We clip the following chunk of
good news from the Waco News:
A News reporter interviewed Col.
H. M. Taylor of the Gulf, Brazos
Talley and Pacific just as he was
leaving this morning for Mineral
Wells. He said that everything
was progressing rapidly and that
the laying of tracks between Min-
eral Wells and Milsap would be-
gin Monday, or perhaps before.
He said that the Rock Island road,
which was now completed to Reno,
in the Indian Territory, about 150
miles north of Red River, had
signed a contract to meet the
Brazos Valley at Henrietta, and
that the gap betweeu Mineral
Wells and Henrietta would be the
Reports are coming to this office
that the Gazette fails to reach
some Jack comity ppstoffices on
time. We are assured by the post
master here that the papers for
Christian and Finis are sent out
in the Weatherford mails on Fri-
day morning and there is no reas-
able cause why the Gazette
should not reach those offices by
the Graham stage Aim Saturday.
We will do all in our power to
find where the fault is and have it
remedied. Mails to Gertrude and
Antelope go by way of Graham
and the Gazette is not printed
until between 3 and 5 o’clock
Thursday afternoon. The next
Graham mail goes out Saturday
and the papers lay over at Graham
tor some- Sunday, therefore they do not
reach Gertrude and Antelope until
the next week. Subscribers to the
Gazette will do us a favor if they
can find out where the fault is and
let us know. It is to the interest
of all that the papers reach sub-
scribers at the earliest time possi-
ble.
Another Card, to the Public.
Jacksboro, Texas,
July 6th, 1800.
Mr. I). W. Lambdin,
Lulaville, Tenn.
Dear Sir: v
I wish to make inquiry concern-
ing the antecedents of one J. K.
Wester, who together with his
father and family must have lived
in or near your town some 13 years
ago. Your name has been given
me as an old and reliable citizen
of Lulaville or vicinity. J. K.
Wester is now one of the princi-
pals of onr High School in Jaeks-
boro and is spending his vacation
in making himself quite conspicu-
ous and obnoxious as a partisan
Democratic leader. We have with
us a report to the, effect that he
was connected with the disgrace
of a* young woman before leaving
Tennessee about 13 years ago and
the rumor goes so far as to say
that after the ruin of the lady he
came to Texas to escape the legal
consequences of the act and stop-
ped in the thinly populated county
of Knox in extreme western Texas
til the reception, this morning, of
the papers from which the above
was copied, I did not know that I
was suspicioned of any immorality.
I, nor any of my friends have ever
heard of the report alluded to by
the “ party,” nor do I believe any
such report ever existed, but that
the whole thing was concocted as
an excuse to pry into the private
character of a man whom the
“ ring ” would like to see put down.
It is farther stated that when 1
first came to Texas I went to Knox
county where six-shooters and
bowie-knives was the law. I will
say that when I first came to the
state I went to Southern Texas.
My health was bad and did not
improve any there and the people
advised me to go west and drink
gyp water and I would recover, so
I went to Knox county. I re-
mained there four mouths and
then went east to Grayson county.
I lived in Grayson county until 1
came to Jack, except about four
months I lived with Dr. MeComb
in Cooke county. Respectfully,
J. K. Wester;

Know ye, that we the under-
signed, have known IT. M. Hos-
kins for the last ten years and
while living in Somervell county,
he was clerking for Dr. I. V. Wil-
lingham. The Doctor always had
unlimited confidence in Mr. Hos-
kins, and we always found him at
his post treating his customers
with that courtesy that becomes a
business man and gentleman. Doc-
tor 1. V. Willingham failed in bus-
iness, and having the utmost con-
fidence in his clerk, H. M. Hoskins,
made said H. M. Hoskins his as-
signee. Said assignee took hold
of the business and handled it all
as well and faithfully we believe
as anyone could have done under
the circumstances, and as an evi-
dence of his correctness in the
matter, all creditors interested are
satisfied and have made no com-
plaint against said II. M. Hoskins,
we would farther state that the
contents of a letter written by Mrs.
Willingham to the Tax Collector
of Jack county bearing date of
October 22nd, 3888, to be false

plaint or accusation as set forth in

^fr. Buchanan, president of the
farmers’ alliance received the
nomination of the Democratic
party of Tennessee for governor
of that state. The chairman was
ordered to prepare an address to
the people, declaring irr unequiv-
ocal terms the Democratic posi-
tion in the canvass. It plainly sets
forth the fact that Mr. Buchan-
an is the candidate of the party,
of the people, not the candidate
of any class or faction, and that
his administration would be
broadly Democratic. The Mem-
phis Avalanche in commenting on
his nomination says: “It is the
first time in
state that the representative of
a class has been chosen to lead
the great Democratic hosts to vic-
tory. And Tennessee is to be
congratulated that since such is
the fact the class he represents is
and always has been the backbone
of the Democratic party, unwav-
ering in its allegiance.”

for it is everywhere recognized as
the standard building-up medicine
and blood purifier. It has won
its way to the front by its own in-

instead. Be sure to get Hood’s.

Gibtown, Texas.
To Democrats who have joined
the side issues:
It is by this time an evident fact
that those parties are led by men
who care but little for the welfare
of the country, all they want is
your vote; the writer desires no
preferment, but wishes every man
who claims to be a Democrat, to
prove himself one by his actions.
Don’t say 1 am as good a Demo-
crat as anybody, but I will not go
into county conventions. Had you
not as well go into a county con-
vention as a state convention?
Do’nt you have to begin at the
bottom of a roof to cover a house ?
And isn’t the Harrison adminis-
tration enough to convince you
by this time that every Democrat
ought to stand to his party ? When
the time comes to divide up for
spoils, the leaders of those out-
side parties find principle at stake
if the loaves and fishes are before
their eyes. They will tell you that
all other parties are corrupt, that
they stink in the nostrils of all
honest men, while at the same
moment they are engaged in bar-
gaining for office with corruption,
and when the trade is made prin-
ciple must retire to some secluded
spot to die from starvation, un-
wept and unmourned by its chief
apostles, who have become shin-
ing lights in the party of corrupt
partisanship. Such are the nat-
ural results of unsuccessful per-
nicious office-seeking that unfort-
unately the devotees catch too
many flies in their web of claptrap
sophistry and hold them as capi-
tal to trade upon and magnify in-
dividual importance until the
political mouse, in his own opinion
becomes a roaring lion, seeking
whom he may devour at his leis-
ure. Such men aud parties are
not peculiar to our times, they
have existed in all ages. Their
old dry bones are scattered along
the roadside all the way down the
history of time. Now can you af-
ford to work in the interest of the
Uepublican party ? It opposes
everything that is in favor of the
poor man. Return to your tents,
oh, Israel! G. Whilikins.
