The Herald is authorized to announce
the name of
Moist. J. N. Gaiiner
as a Candidate for Congress irom this
the Fifteenth District subject to the
Democratic Nominating Convention.
MONDAY JULY 21 1902. .
Uockrell's dish of crow left a
bad taste in his mouth.
The Kansas City platform is
recognized but no mention of Col.
Bryan was made by the Texas
democratic platform.
General Smith was unfortunate
in having the public searchlight
turned on his acts. Acts similar to
those perpetrated under his orders
were committed by American offi-
cers in Cuba and they still hold
their commission. A number of
Cubans who were not even count-
ed amongst our enemies were said
to have been unceremoniously
strung up on convenient trees
without trial and without oppor-
tunity to receive religious consola-
tion in the province of Santiago
just after the war ended and our
soldiers were the executioners. Yet
there was no particular fuss made
over it.
As a result of the findings of
the court martial which tried Gen-
eral Jacob Smith he has been
reprimanded and retired by the
president. In view of his unusual-
ly cruel and uncivilised instruc-
tions for the conduct ol the com-
paign in Sainar this would seem the
only uatural ami just course for
the president to pursue. General
Smith ordered his subordinate
officers to "kill and burn" in the
island. "The more you kill and
burn the better you will please
me" he is reported to have said.
And when asked the age limit ol
the natives to be killed he replied ;
"Shoot all over ten years old."
This was indeed "intemperate
inconsiderate and violeut" lan-
guage as Secretary Root pronoun-
ces it and the least that could be
done in the case was to retire the
general. Yet it must be admitted
that General Smith had behind
him a long record of useful and
houorable conduct as an officer.
If the recommendation of the
platform adopted at Galveston
concerning legislation enforcing
uniform primaries in the state and
enacting measures to protect the
purity of such primary elections
and to punish illegal voting there-
in should be carried out it will
have the effect of putting a heavy
expense upou the state in addition
to the regular elections. As no
law cau be enacted for the demo-
cratic party solley it must have the
effect of cansiug all political parties
in the state to hold their primary
elections or conventions upou the
same date whether they wish it or
not. This expense will be no small
item aud as it will be in no sense
for the purpose of electtug1)fficers
but merely for the purpose of as-
sisting the parties to nominate
candidates for the regular elections
it appears unnecessary and even
unreasonable. In this state it is
true at present the result of such
primaries would be equivalent to
the election of all state officers yet
nevertheless the regular elections
with all attendant expeuses must
occur also. Just what concern the
state has with the method of the
selection of candidates by any
party for state or other political
offices may be clear to North Texas
statesmen but to The Herald the
system of primary elections and
the anlforcement of a uniform date
for holding: same seems a needless
and inexcusable interference with
the rights of individual .county
political organizations which
should be allowed to run their
business to suit themselves.
DR. De LIPSCEY KILLED
Former Brownsville Doctor Shot;
In Houston For Pulling a Boy's
Ear.
Houston Tex. July 17. Dr.
A. E. Delipscey was this afternoon
shot and killed.
The evidence goes to show that
Delipscey had employed a sou of
a real estate dealer at bis office and
that in reprimanding the boy foi
iuatteutiou to duty he had pulled
his ear aud called him a puppy.
This the young man reported to
his father and accompanied by an-
other soo repaired to the office to
await Delipscey. He was tele-
phoned what was going on and
was warned uot to go to bis Office
but he went anyway.
Eye witnesses assert that he was
struck with the fist by one man
and with a etub by another at
which he turhed and fled into his
office closely pursued. As he en-
tered he was shot the bullet tear-
ing through the jugular vein and
proviug fatal in a ftiiv initiates.

A. Elmer Delipsceyis remember
ed in San Antouio by the medical
fraternity although dining his
stay he did not affiliate with
them. He first came to San An
tonio in tie latter pacrt ot lby
and after
maining here for a
year and a
t mysteriously dis-
appeared
He again

retried and remained
but a short while After his de-
parture the second ime no one
knew where he went aud the uews
of his death was. the first intima-
tion the local practietioners had of
his whereabouts.
Dr. Delipscey's carreer in San
Antonio was varied. His practice
was not very extensive and it was
thought that he possessed means.
He was a great lover of horses and
always drove a handsome pair of
high steppers. His large physique
attracted much attention as did
also his dress at all time he wore
a silk hat.
Dnriug his last stay in this city
he became friendly with a jeweler
and afterwards married the jewel-
er's widow. Following this he left
the city aud it is thought he went
to some of the small towns adjacent
San Autouio. San Autonio Ex-
press. Dr. Delipscey was well known
in Brownsvtlle and iu various other
towns of Southwest Texas his
career having been a decidedly
varied one. He was said to be a
Hungarian by birth and on first
comiug here he was accompanied
by a brother who talked of bring-
ing out a colony of Hamgarians to
engage in tobacco culture here.
From here Dr. Delipscey moved
to Beeville aud later went from
there to Houston. He Jived in
Erownsville about a year.
