To the Bastrop Advertiser:
Where is that great majority
you and little Hi. Gaiwod were
going to roll *ip for Clark?
“No more combines in mine,”
ia the response the leading Kepub
licans of La Grange make when
spoken to about the election.

The indications are, should the
Republican party retaiu control of

the men, women and children of
the north, will become pension

The leading Republicans of La-
Grange are about the sickest lot

Cuney succeeded in delivering
about seventy per cent of the Re-
publican vote to Clark. The re
maiuiug thirty per cent was di-
vided between Hogg and Nugent,
Hogg getting about 25 percent of
the thirty.

Whenever a political party can
raise millions of dollars to corrupt
tue ballot, well may lovers of their
country despair of stability of Re-
publican institutions. The Repub-
lican party has done this i n the
last two national campaigns.
Mr. R. \V. Coleman, editor of
Truth, a populist organ published
at Han Antonio, died recently at
theearyl age of t wen'y-six. He was a
man of eminent ability and his
death will prove a great loss to
his party.
■■ -■ -• • ---
The Clark organs and speakers en-
couraged the third party people to
stick to their ticket because they
knew it would lessen Hogg’s vote,
and they followed the advice, and
the result is Clark is not only de-
feated but is likely to be third in
the race.

Mr. K. A. Barkley lias become

The democracy have swept
the country with cyclone effect.
At this writing it is impossible
to say with certainty to what
extent. But it is certain they
have a large majority in the
electoral college.
Nothing like it has occurred
since 1852 when Franklin
Pierce, Democrat, def e a t e d
General Winfield Scott, whig.
Next week The Journal will
be able to furnish its readers,
full and complete returns, in
detailed form, from the entire
country.
Democrats have a right to
be proud of this signal victory
of the people over the mono-

have had them between the

It is sad to think of the political

Pope, Kittrell and a host of lesser
lights, who attempted to disrupt
the great Democratic party of
Texas, wii’.h the aid of the party’s
ancient foe, the Republican party.

with them in their defeat and hu-

Business, especially among retail

suspended. Strikers, lockouts, and
labor riots was unheard of when
the government was under the con-

that perty again come into power
it will euact laws that will relieve
the country of suchthings. A mod-

bring the desired relief.
WHAT IS A COLD.
THE ANSWER GIVEN IN A LECT-
URE BY DR. HARTMAN AT
THE SURGICAL HOTEL,
COLUMBUS, OHIO.
A cold ia the starting point of
more than half the fatal illness]
from November to May. A coldl
is the Drat chapter in the history
of every ease of consumption. A
cold is the first stage of chronic
catarrh, the most loathsome and
stubborn of diseases. A cold is
the legitimate parent of a large
family of diseases, such ss bron-
chitis, pleurisy, pneumonia, andl
quinsy. To neglects cold is al-
most suicide. To fail to provide!
against this well-nigh inevitable
evil is dangerous negligence. Pel
ru ua ia a safeguard as a prevent'
ive, a specific as a core for all ea-
a«a of catarrh, acute and chronic,
ooughs, colds, consumption etc.,

Great Victory Over Corporate
Power. The People Endorse
The Governor’s Admin-
istration.
The Democratic party has
just reason to be proud of the
great victory it has achieved
over the combined efforts of
the bolters and republicans to
disrupt and destroy it. Never
before in the history of the
State has there been made
such an unwarranted attempt
by men, professing to be dem-
ocrats, upon the life of the par-
ty to which they claim to be-
long. In this unholy and un-
righteous in o-v c in e n t they
sought and obtained the as-
sistance and co-operation of
their party’s life-long enemy,
and with its help and encour-
agement waged a bitter and
unrelenting fight to accomplish
their purpose. But they were
met by the democratic hosts in
battle array and for three long
months the contest raged un-
til the day came for the final
charge. That day will be re-
membered by the people of
Texas now living, and by their
descendants, as a memorable
one. Yes, the 8th of Novem-
ber 1892 will be remembered
for many years to come as the
day on which corporate power
in Texas met its Waterloo,
Then let there go up all over
this broad and glorious com-
monwealth, a general rejoicing
by her people, that they have
escaped from the thraldom
which was sought by the plu-
tocrats and their tools to fasten
upon them. Long live Hogg

This is an age of discovery. If
any impel us to the unravelliug of
mysteries had beeu lacking the
spirit of Coluuihiauisin of this
mouth had supplied the necessary
bourn. It is nut surprising, i bere-
fore, tbat the year 1892 should
mark tbe discovery of the reason
of tbe interjection of the force
bill tigment into the campaign. To
lie sure, thousands of people had
been woudering about it. But uo
body bad solved tbe problem. J
was lefi for lion. V\ hiteluw lieid
to do this iu bis letter of accept-
ance. To begin with, he gives a
new intent to the late force bill
in intimating that it was designed
to prevent force at elections aud
fails to explain wny tbe bill was
killed in the Senate by Republican
votes. In fact, he is not quite
certain that there is any reason
fortbe bill as a campaign issue,
no doubt having the lengthening
shadows of she recent Alabama
elections in mind. “But,” be adds,
“it is uot to be dirguised tbat the
recent clamor against this princi-
ple, if it means anything, means
a purpose to nullify t he fourteeni It
article of thu Const ituiiuu of the
United Slates.’’ This is an extra-
ordinary ftnd. Does the Republi-
can candidate for the Vice-Presi
decoy really imagine that any par-
ty is seeking to nullify the four-
teenth amendment 1 Tbe Demo-
cratic party is certainly not look-
ing tbat way, iu spite of random
utterances of ephemeral states-
men. Mr. lieid should try again.
There are two more weeks iu
which the guessing may continue,
and before another discovery is
tieraled abroad cure should be
takeu that no mare’s nest is un-
covered.
Probably next spring some time

AFEARFULTRAGEDY.
A NEGRO DESPERADO KILLS A
UNITED STATES MARSHAL,
THEN IS HIMSELF KILLED
By A Brother Marshal Of The Mur-
. dered Officer.
Gainesville Texas, Nov. 4.—(Special.)—
Just as the last coach of last night’s north-
bound Bantu Fe rolled of Hod Kiver bridge,
the half sleeping passengers in tho negro
compartment were aroused by two pistol
shots in rapid succession. Btraighti ning up
they saw lying in the uisle the form of a mnn,
in whoso forhead was a horrible big hole.
From this big shaggy wound blood spurted
out fountain like, interrupted now and tbon
w nen ine inree iiiarsnais Doa.ded th
in this city they were spotting a man

This man whose name has not been lo
From this big shaggy wound blood spurted
like, lnterrupl
by oozi g brains. Standing over tho pros-
trate form was n negro, witli a smoking re-
volver in his hand. A half cynical smile
stole over his brownish countenance as he
looked down heartlessly at his victim, but of
an instant it wus changed.
The smile changed to a dogged, desperate
expression, hiB limp arm arose quickly, the
pistol flashed, another one answered and the
negro fell with bis feet almost touohing the
head of his dying victim. The negro made
motion us if to rise and again, again and a-
gain the pi.tol spoke, and the negro, with a
convulsion of the body, sunk for eternity.
To this terrible tragedy there were four ac-
tors. '1 hey were Tom omith, Dave Booker,
and Ingram, all of whom are deputy United
States marshals, and a negro who is thought
to have been tbe rrotorious “Commodore
Miller,” who so brutally murdered a police-
man in Dallas several months ago. He board-
ed the train at Fort Worth and carried
ticket naming Guthrie, O. T., as its destina-
tion. Tho officers got on in this city and
were enrout to Ardmore.
On hoarding the train the negro took his
seat in a coach set opart for white people.
Conductor Domke ordered him forward mto
the compartment set apart for negroes, but
at first he refused flatly. He finally record
sidered his refusal and went forward.
When the three marahals boa.ded the Ira n
whom

me has not been learned,
went forward Into the nogro compartment.
Just as the train crossed the bridge and was
on Indian soil. Marshal Smith wont forward
it is thought, to arrest the white man on sus-
picion of having whisky. Tne negro and the
man for whom tho mershsi was looking,
were standing near the door conversing Just
as the marshal pushed open the door, separ-
ating the two compartments, the negro look-
up and without the slightest warning, fired.
I ho ball struck Smith just over the left eye
and came out just over the base of the brain.
.Smith fell instantly and as his body struck
the floor the negro flrod aguin, the ball stri-
king u finger of tho left hand. Booker and
Ingram having heard the shots, rushed for
ward pistol in hand. Ingram dropped be-
tween two seats. Tho negro Area once at
Booker, the ball just grazing his neck, Boo-
ker returned the fire and the negro dropped
with a bullet in his abdomen. Booker fired
three more times, each shot taking effect in
the same tocality.
Smith sank rapidly and just as tho train
whistled for Tlmckerville, three miles dis-
tance, ho gasped and died. The negro lived
until the train reached Marietta, fifteen miles
from where the shooting occurred.
The bodies were taken to Ardmore, where
the negro’s remains will be buried. Smith’s
body will betaken to tlarria the home of his
family, for interment.
Tlie identity of the negro has not been de-
finitely established. He, however, hears a
strong resemblance to the description of
“Commodore” Miller, which ia ground for
belief that he ia that murderous negro. The
fact he shot without provocation and as if in
anticipation strengthens this belief.
Smith died just as lie has cau-ed many
othera to die—with his boots on. Ho was
the leader of the “Woodpecker” faction in
the race war which prevailed several years
ago in Fort Bend county. It is related of
him that in one of theae battles ho killed
seven men without removing the Winches-
ter from his shoulder, i ater he was mar-
tial of Taylor, where it Usaid, he added two
to hia death list. He organized the expedit-
ion of Texas marshals who went to Wyom-
ing to participate in the “Rustler’s” war-
und with those who went with him, was
thrown into prison. He was released only
a short lime ago on his own recognizance.
M arshal Dickinson of Paris passed through
the city this evening enroute to Ardmore to
inyestigate the killing.

The oo nvention of conqtj jndg
es, which assembled at Houston
recently, among other things a
dopted the following report:
We, the county judge# and commissioners
of Texas assembled in conrention for tho
purpose of discussing some practical means
by which tbe public highways of tbe differ-
ent couuties may be benefltted, hereby by
organizing ourselves into a permanent con-
vention, called tbe oounty judges and com-
missioners association of Texas,
Thh officers of tbs association shall oonsiat
of a president and secretary, and such other
officers as this association shall from time to
time select.
The constitution and by-laws of the asso-
ciation shall be better roads and drainage.
As one of the best means to obtain good
roads throughout thu state, we request of
the legislature uext assembled to pass such
laws as will permit the several counties at
their option to* issue road and draiuage
bonds in amounts not to exoeed such sum as
a rate of taxation of one-fifth of 1 per cent
upon the assessed value* of the country will
discharge both interest at tbe expiration of
thirty years.
We recommend that the investment of
the permanent school fund in such count!
bonds at 4 per cent interest will be of more
benefit to the State and better securities than
lending it to the railroads or to the farmers.
We recommend that the state lease free
to such counties as may apply all short term
convicts, such counties to pay for the guard-
ing support and maintenance of said con-
victs.
We suggest tbat the State purchase rook
quarries and gravel beds, work their surplus
convicts in them and furnish at actual cost
this material to the counties.
We believe the passage ot a law embody-
ing the above idea will aoivetbe present con-
vict problem and to a great extent prevent
the competition between convict and free
labor.
We insist upon the passage the above res-
olutions, as the diversified condition of the
various counties render a uniform law im-
practicable.
We finally recommend that this associa-
tion hold its next meeting at the city of Aus-
tin on the first Monday in l-ebruary, 1968,
slid the difforont county judges and com-
missioners are earnestly requested to attend.

It was moved and seconded that the chair

point a committee of five at some time be-
tween this and the meeting of the legislature
to urge upon-the Senate and legislature the
importance of the question and to draft such
resolutions as would enable the counties to
obtain better roads.
It was moved and carried that the present
officers: W S Robson, of Fayette county and
H G Lidatone of Harris county, be the
permanent officers of this organization and
that the convention meet in Austin the first
Monday in February 1893.
