solved is how to sccumplUm thlB and still
not bring auch labor into competition
with free labor At Auburn the chairman
found the convicts building roads and
In order to occupy tho lime wheeling
dirt some distance further than It
was necessary But let thorn wheel
Hotter this than idleness or compe-

OUNBYS OONVBNTION AT WACO
Tbo shrewdest man In tho lato Ilopubll
can powwow at Waco was N W Cunoy
a colored delegate Irom Galveston Cu
noy turned up his noso at tho placo prof
fered him ns Houtonantgovornor on tho
state ticket Ho cared na little tor It as
ho would to havo beon a sorgoantatarms
or portor In tho convention Ho wanted
tho Texan momborshlp on tho national ex-
ecutive committee and ho got It no
wanted his friend Judgo Bcotor ot Aus-
tin elected chairman of tbo stato execu
tlvo committee and bo placed him there
shelving DeGrcss It was a fight all tho
way through between DeGrcss and Ciiney
tho whlto man and the negro and Cuney
got thora every tlmo Tho wholo pro
ceedlcg shows that tho leaders wore fig-
uring for tho loavos and llshes In 1888
when Cunoy will bo hoard Irom again II
tboro aro any loavos and llshes to bo had
then by UepnbltcatiB Cuncy Is tho man
who will onjoy tho lions share This
same Cunoy played a bold gstmo In 1881
audit was sll lor Cunoy Ho lost but
his scheme was a bold ono for all that and
ho might fcavo won If It had not been
for Brother Burchards Hum Bomanlsm
and lUbolllon blunder Cuuey went to
Chicago as ouo of tho Texas delegation
which was fairly committed to Arthur
Cuney led a bolt to tho Blalno camp
Blalno was nominated and It ho had been
elected Cunoy would havo dispensed tho
fedoral patronage In Texas until 1880
Tbo shrewd colored ruau pockoted his
disappointment and Is already at work to
mako himself as Influential in 88 as to
national politics as ho was two years
It Is a scramble for federal oillco
no thought of stato politics And
j N W Cuney is tho virtual leader ot the
Itopubllcan putty In Texas which coolly
appeals to tho people to again ontrust It
With power That It should assume to
refer to stato Issues m Its platform la
farcical Tho wholo gathering at Waco
was simply and solely a preliminary to
tho national cainfalgn two years hence
and Cuncy tho astute was the power be-
hind tho scenes It was Cunoys conven-
tion and It ho shall unfortunately
chance U roslltu his aspirations In 1838
tboro will bo llttlo pity for tho whlto men
whom ho overreached

aro such failures
returns of tho sec
tions named far below tho usual average
Situated at this junction point Foit
Worth Is dally solicited and dally re-
sponds Tho merchants of the city deserve
all credit for their prompt response and
they should havo the aid of tho wealthy
hero who aro not In business and who are
willing to help Our merchants should
not bo left to carry the burden alone and
Tiik Gaiktk bespeaks the charity of all
who are able to help thoso who stand In
need of aid The assistanco being dally ren
dercd by our merchants lc not heralded In
the papers but It Is worthy of them and
their reputation for liberality But there
U a limit even to their ability and all the
people who can should contribute to the
needs of thoso who cannot help them
selves
IllOOIlEHS IN TBLEVUONY
Telephony Is making marvelous pro-
gress according to tho New Haven Itcg
Istor In a recent Issue It Is stated that
It Is now possible fdr merchants to sit at
their counting room desks In Philadel
phia and talk with people In New York
Boston and with every subscriber In
New England It appears that a copper
circuit has been completed botween New
York and Boston and tho wires are fast
approaching Philadelphia Instead of
the ordinary telephone at tho wall the
subscriber can bo furnished with o beau
tiful rosawood dcBk about tho slzo of a
lads writing desk with plenty of room to
write upon and with several drawors tor
papors The desk conceals tho big mag-
net which operates tho bell and also tho
other mechanism of a powerful tele-
phone except two silver warning bells
and tho transmitter The transmitter
with a silver moutbpleco about the slzo
of a silver dollar Is held by a met
elllc arm which Is so arrauged that
It can bo moved to ralso or lower ibo
mouthplcco several feot By an auto
matic device the transmitter is also kept
In tho samu relative position to tho
mouth at whatever position it Is sot
Tho only other thing which shows that
the doak is not a gentlemans ordinary
ohlco furniture is a ltttlo movable bar
with four metallo switches By this de-
vice the subscriber puts himself out of
tho city circuit and switches lilmsel on-
to tho main lino for New York or Boston
which ho rings up and calls a Now York
or Boston subscrlbor This Is all very
lino But beforo any great strain 1b
maia to talk long distances will tbo gen
tlemon who control tho destinies of tho
telephone please bo so kind and fix tho
thing so wo can talk with with our neigh
bor across tho way It is not loug dis
tance spcaklug that Is uceded at present
gentlemen but an Improvement In catch-
ing what Is said at short distances
TWO MORE CONTENTIONS
It was to bo hopod that with tho Itepub
llcan convention at Waco tho political
gatherings of tho year would close and
tbo people bo permitted to get a rest from
political agitation and Fettle down to
business again Tbcro Is no auch good
fortune though Tho ultra Prohibition-
ists and the ultra anttmonopollstB aro
not satisfied and want to mako their
grievances known Dr Crantlll who
scema to bo a kind ot selfconstituted
loader ot tho Prohibitionists has Issued
his call for n tato couveutlon of Prohlbi
tlonlsts who havo backbone to meet
at Dallas early In September And
Laborer Brolles ot Port Worth has Issued
Mi mandate for a stato gathering of antl
monopolists to meet In Port Worth
also In September Ot course no ono can
appropriately enter any objection to the
Prohibitionists or tho antimonopolists
or auy other body of citizens meeting and
discussing such matters as they may hold
to have a bearing on their interests
This Is ft free country nud tho pco
plo aro free Ono Is tempted to ask
howovcr what It Is hoped to accomplish
at cither of thoso conventions It Is pos-
sible tho Prohibitionists or some of
them will reply that tho Democratic
platform does not go far enough In Us
recognition of tho Prohibitionists nud
their esplrnttons This Is Dr Cranlllls
complalut It Is known however that
many Prohibitionists nro perfectly satis
fied with tho Democratic utterances re
garding prohibition A leading Prohibi
tionist was a member ol tho patform
committee and helped to frame tho plank
touching prohibition If thu Democracy
did not go far enough wo would respect-
fully nsk Dr Crantlll how ho likes tho
plank In tho Hepubltcau platform adopted
at Wnco That ought to bo broad
enough tor him to stand on Thcro la
breathing room lu tho Itepubllcan It ho
feels restrained in tho Democratic camp
And now for the antlmonopollsts Both
tho Democratic and Itepubllcan platforms
ttra outspoken on the lights ot labor
audthe agressions of monopolies Tub
Gazktix believes that tho Dcmbcratlc
platform Is sulllciently outspoken and lib
eral on this point But II It Is not then
there Is tho Itepubllcan platform to fall
back on Perhaps it will furnish what
tho Democrats failed 11 they tailed at all
to glvp This Gazkttk Insists that there
ate but the two parties Democratic aad
Id publican In tho stato and their utter-
ances give assurance that they havo taken
Into consideration all tho varied Interests
In the state Including tho prohibition
question and the monopoly evil Thoy
each pledge the pooplo that If entrusted
with power they will observe and curry
out thelrpltdses It does seem rather
strange that rellel should bo sought or
hoped lor outsldo ol tho two groat par
tlcst and tbo Democratic party being tne
Wrongest Of ih two It is but natural it
should be better tbls to anticipate and
meet tho desires of tho people
as a whole Theao movements prohlbi

mocracy will be intact and powerfuleTen
if tho two conventions should each put
tickets Into tho field and appeal for re
cruits to uphold tho tickets A defection
strong enough to impair Democratic pre-
dominance Is not possible Where Is the
good then ol Democrats straying away
Why not strive within tho Democratic
lines for such reforms or measures as
onr nnttraonopoly cr prohibition friends
desire We repeat that tho Democratic
party stands pledged to give thepco
good government and
plo of Texas
It will do It H tno Democratic
pledges and utterances aro not sat
isfactory why then let the discontented
brethren go Into tho itepubllcan Camp
where they will bo welcomed The Re-
publicans stand sadly In need of recruits
But naught save fruitless agitation can
come of thcso two movements and If Tun
Gazrttk has devoted this space to tho
subject It Is only out of tho desire to
warn Democrats from wasting their time
and energies In efforts to accomplish any
practical good outside tho lines of the
party

The oillco of the secretary of the navy
bas recently been decorated with a beau-
tiful model of tho Japanese twin screw
cruiser NanlwaKan which Is to be du-
plicated lor tho American navy The
model la about six feet In length and a-
foot broad amidships It Is in perfect
working order and everything about It Is
according to scale It was built by
Naval Constructor Phillip Hlckbom

Is a perfect ship In miniature with an-
chors chains docks cranks boats
smokestacks deckcabins cannon Cat
ling suns and Nordcnfeldts It is
stranded in a model dry dock and the
whole is mounted on a handsome table
This model Is claimed to bo the only one
ot Its slzo and kind ever built not only
In this country but In tho world
Hitherto It has beencustomaty In making
models to merely represent onebait ol
tho ship but tho advantages to bo gained
and the better Idea of tho general plan of
tho ship to bo obtained from tho full
model havo been so demonstrated In this
case that Chief Naval Constructor Wilson
has determined to havo tho model ot tho

In view of this fact and In view ol tho
recognized right of tho people to decldo
at tho ballotbox any vital lssno lt was
not deemed an unreasonable request to
ask tho Texas Colossus to heed tho wishes
ot an outraged antl longsufforlng people
But It was tho old story over again Tho
Democratic giant lat with tho suffrages
of an honest constituency and tumclled
with Its 185000 voting majority again
treated with contempt tho wishes ol tho
people On top of this convention aided
and abotted by over 4000 Texas saloons
named as Its standardbearer tho only
avowed liquor champion In tho
Held In view ol theso facts
what aro Prohibitionists to do Must wo
sit with hands folded and swallow Insult
after Insult from tho Texas Democratic
Colossus No For our part wt nro no
longer a member ol tho machine We
are in favor of organizing a Prohibition
party puro and simple and of putting a
statu tlcketln the Held this year Life Is
too short to fritter away lu a vain attempt
torcform tho Democratic machluo Wo
have depended on our rclatlvesr onr
neighbors and our friends long enough
let us now feo about harvesting our grain
alono
These are our convictions In honestly
expressing them wo are uwarc that wo
lorfelt all hopo lor public oillco or emolu-
ment Wo deliberately belore God lay
upon tho altar ol right all tho political
hopes and aspirations of a lifetime We
will loso money prestlne friends Wo
will bo pttiod cursed aoused But cone
what may let It be sunshlno or shadow
praises or censure we aro for tho homes
of Texas and the purity of American In-
stitutions against thu world
Tho Prohibition party Is tho only hopo
for tho perpetuity of tho republic After
a tlmo victory will perch upon Its stain-
less banner Then wo will be rewarded
for tho sacrlllces wo havo made lor God
and home and native land And this Is
tho only way to
rULVKKlZK TUB HUM 1OWKIt
May tho Lord deliver us from such
Democracy and In tbo mysteries of
Providence may tho children who aro be-
ing born nqw bo born with backbones
In tho present emergency we need men
men who love right better than party j
men with nerve enough to speak out
for tho right If they speak out alone
men who love God bettor than they love
the Democratic political machine men
who will live and dlu by their convictions
of duty
Working lor Prohibition In tno Demo-
cratic party is sorter like Dives worklnc
for ico water In hell and tho soonor all
Prohibitionists ngreo on tho Prohibition
party local stato and national tho bettor
It will be for the cause

a frightful railroad accident ho sustained
a low vcars ago

lent section of land and has been re-
garded by our citizens ns beyond want
Had It been lisped that ho was In need ot
provisions he would have been promptly
helped
Thcro Is positively no case of destitu-
tion in this country nor on the Staked
Plain nor Is thcro a prospect of any Cat
tlo and sheep havo fattened during tho
summer Tho only Icar has been that It
would not rain In time for winter leed
but that fear Is dtspelled by tho rains of

every man woman and chllu Is contented
and happy
Wo appreciate the noble efforts ol the
Fort Worth people in relieving sufferers
