TO ADVERTISERS.
The News will take advertising
with the understanding that if it has
not a larger kcal circulation than any
daily pnper published in Waoo no
ohargo will be made for the advcrtiso-
inont. There is only one man Tub News
had rather see president than Senator
Carlisle. lie is that grand patriot and
statesman who receives the nomina-
tion at Chicago.
Gorman Hill and Watterson all
agree that Cleveland cannot be elect-
ed if nominated Their opinions
might have some weight if they were
not interested parties.
Gov. Hogg aoted very indiscreet
when ho so viciously attack id the
Dallas News. The News has treated
him fairly and talks to perhaps 1000
people to the governor's one.
Senator Mills made his first speech
in tho senate a few days ago against a
steamship subsidy bill. It was short
but to tho point notwithstanding this
however tho bill passed (I to 10.
Editor Brann has renigaod the posi-
tion of editor of the Texas Ioo'noolast
and Tom Bowers is left to fan the
flics off Gov. Hogg all by himself
so far as the Iconoclast is concerned.
McLennan must have two good
representatives in the twenty-third
legislature and the people should
make no mistake in selecting them.
Thoy should demand honesty and
ability and be satisfied with nothing
less.
In bis San Antonio spoeoh Governor
Hogg said the railroad employes
could not vote as they pleased in the
primaries or the fidelity companies
would drop their bond. Not more
tban one out of twenty-five railroad
employes aro bonded and those who
are pay tho premiums themselves
and it is a very rare thing that one is
canceled. Hogg is running on a
platform of bare faced assertions with-
out any foundations whatever.
His excellency had a real nice time
riding over to Seguin tho other day.
Ex-Governor John Ireland was with
him and tbey sat chatting pleasantly
together until all of a auddon the gov-
ernor was struok with an idea. Now
do not suppose for a moment that it
killed him or even knocked him down.
It did no more than knock him silly.
He said ho had discovered that "in a
curve the inside rail was placed much
higher tban tho outsido rail for tho
reason that it throws the weight of
the train on the outside forces the
gravity from tho center and keeps the
train from running off the track." Ex-
Governor Iroland bad not seen as
many curves as Governor Hogg per-
haps but ho didn't havo Clark after
him whilo he was going over them
and he had an idea that the outsido rail
wa3 the higher and tho governor and
tbo ox governor bet a bottle of beer
on it and oillod in tho oonduotor to
settle it. The governor lost and will
always lose when he hots on his know-
ing anything. It is said that Gov.
Hogg'and his railroad commissioners
were informed in response to upeoial
inquiry by ono of the railroads that
therojwere on that lino just precisely as
many ascending grades as deconding
grades but they had gotten so little
information from railroads thoy were
oot inolined to believe it and regarded
it if true as a very singular coinoi-
lonce. Wonder if tho numerous tanks
iloug the railroads of Toxas observod
I by the governor has not convinced
jiim of the existence of watered stooks.
TIME TO DRAW THE LINE.
The persistent efforts of that ele
ment in tho Alliance which has as-
sumed tho riht to oontrol tho Donio-
oratio party of Texas to uiaiutain the'
rule established in ISqO permitting
any man to enter the JDomocratio pri-
maries who would declare his allegi-
ance to Hogg without any other qual-
ification should be sat upon with such
foroo at tho ooming primaries that it
will bo eliminated from tho politics of
Texas forover. Thero are numbers
of voters who have declared their in-
tention to participate in the
Demooratio primaries and at the same
time openly declare their purposo to
scratch as many of the nominees as
they please. It has been tho oustom
of the party in its liberality hetetofore
to permit any man to assist in the
selection of our candidates provided
ho would agree to refrain from voting
against the nominees. This only
lessens the opposition ono half and is
equivelont to halt a vote to each
soratoh for the opposition
oandidate. e havo reaohed
a point in our political
history when it is dangerous to the
party organization to permit a con-
tinuance of this oustoui. If the Alii
ance men desire to work out their re-
forms through the Democratic party
they should deolare faithful allegiance
to the party and abHe tho deoision of
the party conventions. No one who
will not do this ought to be permitted
to participate in the primaries. It
were better tor us to engage an opou
and organized foe one that can be
known by its banner than to
be eternally harrassed by
determined enemies in the guiso of
friends. A Hogs man who votes in
oar primaries and at the same time
declares his intention to not support
Clark if nominated is no worso than a
Clark man who refuses to support
Hogg if nominated and one should bo
excluded with as muoh determination
as the other. It is time to diaw the
line and presorve our pvrty organiza-
tion. If the opposition desires to
align itself against us well and good.
The News will be found fighting for
the nominee of the Democratic party
whoever he may be. A majority of
ono on dear cut principles is better
than 150000 with a mixture of all the
isms known to the politics of these
degonerato times. Anti-Democrats
should act manly and fight us openly
and when they aro whipped everybody
will know it. Tako off your disguise
gentlemen and let us know who jou
aro.
"A short time ago" says the Ap
peal-Avalanche "Mr. O'Ferrell of
Virginia as chairman of the commit-
tae of eleotions in the house brought
in the report that Mr. Rockwell of
New York a protege of Sonator Hill's
was not entitled to his seat. Mr. Hill
endeavored to influence the commit-
tee in tavor of Rockwell but without
avail. Ho then turned his attention
to members of congress and by cer
tain shrewd work he had the report of
the committee rejected. But he is not
satisfied with this. O'Ferrell who is
a candidate for governor of Virginia
opposed him and he now announces
that the Virginian shall not only not
receive the gubernatorial nomination
but that he shall not be returned as a
member of congress. Mr. Hill is get-
ting too big for his boots; but it re-
mains to be seen whether the people
of Virginia will allow a New York
politician to decide whom they shall
soleot for their governor or send to
congress. The Old Dominion will
have fal'en upon evil times indeed if
an upright ana able public servant is
retired at such a behest."
There will be nono but Demoorats
allowed to voto in the primaries if the
oleotion offioers do thoir duty. A man
who woL't agree to support the Demo-
oratio ticket has no right to help
make it. The praotioo of permitting
the ememios to como into our pri-
maries is just what got us into this
fix. Turn them out.

lowing address being Mgntd by many
of the railroad mon in tnis city ex
plains itself.
AKE RAIUIOAD SIRS l'EONS.
To the railroad employe! ofTexti:
Whereas Gov. Hogg in his spoeoh
at Denison and other plaoes said:
"Numbers of railroad men has as-
sured mo that thoy wero for me but
they dared not express their aeuti
ments. Numbers of them havo writ-
ten to mo wishing mo well in this
campaign. Thoy aro afraid to open
their mouths. I hope to live to see
tho day whon a man can go up to the
polls in this country and voto an opon
ballot without endangering his means
of subsistence. Down in South Toxas
tho railroad men and darkies havo
organized antioommission olubs and
now they aro trying to fool the white
folks. This must be tho way thoy ex-
peot to turn Texas loose."
Tho abovo is an exact quotation
from the speech of Gov. Hogg at
Donison Corsicana and other plaoes;
and
Whereas tho samo is an unwar-
ranted and unjust insinuation and in-
sult to honesty independence man-
hood and patriotism of all railroad em
ployes in this state and implies that
wo aro under a condition of servile
peonago too cowardly to assort our
rights to freedom of thought and
action politically; therefore
Resolved that wo tho undersigned
employes of Texas do hereby declare
that the above statement in so far as
it may refer to us or those of our
companions as railroad employes
within our knowledge is entirely
without foundation in faot and is
wholly untrue. We further assert
that in our politioal views and aotions
wo aro as free to speak and act as the
governor of Texas himself.
Having no desire to bo conspicuous
in this campaign we make this state-
ment only to refute tho insinuation
which has been oast at us by Gov.
Hogg for politioal purposes.
AT CORSIOANA TOO.
At Corsicana tho railroad men are
circulating a similar address denounc-
ing the effort of the governor to class
them with peons and negroes and the
signed names aie appended:
