Texas aii Freeta.
Platform of the Anti-Prohibition Party
Adopted at Dallas May 4th 1837.
1. We oppose the pending prohibition
amendment because it is a proposition
to change our form of government from
a free republic of sovereign and inde-
pendent citizens to a species of paternal-
ism hateful to our people. It will take
from the citizen his most sacred and in-
alienable rights and add to and augment
the powers of government and is there-
fore undemocratic and anti-republican.
2. We oppose this amendment because
it is sumptuary and will vex the citizens
and interfere with individual liberty.
. 3. We oppose this amendment because
it is at war with the fundamental prin-
cipals of Anglo-Saxon civilization and
will destroy that inalienable right of the
citizen to determine for himself bow be
sball pursue his own happiness without
interference with the rights of others
which principle is the basis of our liber-
ties and the sole hope for perpetuity ol
our Institutions.
4. We oppose this amendment because
its enforcement will entail upon the
government the necessity of promoting
a system of spies and informers detesta-
ble to our people and the enactment of
extreme legislation of doubtful constitu-
tionality and under the sanction of
which our homes may be searched our
property seized and our dearest rights
invaded. Texas can not hope to escape
these curses which have invariably
attended similar experiments in other
places.
6. Its adoption will suppress the gen-
eral use of milder stimulants and en-
courage the use of the strong drinksand
thhs retard the advancement of genuine
temperance. It will stamp as criminal
the manufacture of wines from our do-
mestic grapes for family purposes and
will degrade our drug stores into dram-
shops an'd elevate our doctors into auto-
crats of our appetites.
6. It will enable the rich to Import
and use their liquors without taxation
or restraint and will prohibit only
those of our people who are too poor to
buy their liquors in unbroken packages;
and under its operation the saloon will
give place to the gilded club-room for
the rich while the poor will be forced
to make their purchases at low dives
and in violation ot law. Such class leg-
islation is odious to our people and con-
trary to free government.
7. It proposes by the preponderance
of a majority in certain sections of the
state to fasten by force on other sections
a theory of moral and social conduct and
habits distasteful and repugnant to the
latter. The varied interests of the sec-
tions in our state have been a prolific
source of care and thought in our states-
manship and tills amendment if
adopted will engender a hostile public
sentiment in certain localities fatal to
its enforcement and thus beget a disre-
spect for law and disregard of constitu-
tional authority and will produce last-
ing and permanent evil to our people
and tend to disrupt the state.
8. It proposes to confiscate and de-
stroy without compensation large prop-
erty interests of our people. It will un-
settle business and impair property
values paralyze for a period at least
the commercial interests of our state
and destroy great industries already in
operation fur the manufacture of the
milder stimulants. It will abolish the
source of our publio revenues fully one-
third and increase to a corresponding
amount the burden npon lands and the
necessaries of life already over-bur-
dened with the exactions of government.
•. The zealous adherents of this pro-
hibition idea have already established
and organized a third political party and
have waged relentless warfare upon the
principlesand organization of the other
established parties; instigated by for-
eign emissaries they have by agitation
for years secured from the legislature of
our state the concession of this proposi-
tion to change our organ Is law and by
studied purpose and concerted move-
ment they now seek to stifle political
expression from our people until their
political designs are fully accomplished.
We warn our people of this threatened
danger and call upon them to rebuke at
the polls this sinister conspiracy against
their political organizations and the
fundamental principles of American lib-
erty.

much res< nibling the one the prince Imperial
was killed in ZuliilaiKl. Into tills the ele-
phants pluirnxl and when we reaelie I the
edge we found them straggling in wild con-
fusion to get up the other bank and tilling
Un- air with their screams ami trumpeting
as they pushed one another aside in their
a. Itish panic just like so many human t>e-
ings. Now was our opportunity and tiring
away as quick as we could load wo killed
five ot the asts and no doubt should
h ive bagged lift whole bi rd had they not
suddenly given up their alb nip's to climb
the bank and rushed headlong down the
nu lab. We were too tir • I to follow them
and perhaps also a little sick of slaughter
eight elephants being a pretty good bag tor
one slay.
So after we had rested a little and the
K diia'had cut out the hearts of two of the
dead elephants tor siip|a-r we started Imine-
ward. very well phased with ourselves hav-
ing made up our minds lo send the la-arers
on the morrow to chop out the tusks.
Shortly after we had passed the spot
where Good had wounded the patriaremil
bull we came across a herd ot eland but did
not shoot at them as we had already plenty
ot meat They trotted pastils. As Good
was anxious to get a near view of them
never having seen an eland close he handed
his rifle to Umbop.i and. followed bj Khiva
strolled up to the patch of bush. We sat
down and waited for him not sorry of the
excuse for a little rest
The sun was just going down in its red-
dest glory and Sir Henry and 1 were ad-
miring the lovely scene when suddenly we
heard an elephant screaui and saw its huge
and charging form with uplifted trunk and
tail silhouetted against the great red globe
of the sun. Next second we saw something
else and that was Good and Khiva tearing
back toward us with the wounded hull (for
it was he) charging after tliem. For a mo-
ment we did not dare to fire —for fear of
hitting one of them and the next a dreadful
thing happened—Good fell a victim to his
passion for civilized dress. Had he consent-
ed to discard Ids trousers and gaiters as we
had and hunt in a flannel shirt and a pair of
veldtsdioons it would have been all right
but as it was Ills trousers cumbered him in
that desperate race and presently when he
was about sixty yards from us his boot
polished by the dry grass. Blipped and down
he went on his face right in front ot the
elephant.
We gave a gasp for we knew he must die
and ran as hard as we could toward him.
In three seconds it bad ended but not as we
thought Khiva the Zulu boy had seen his
master fall and brave lad that he was had
turned and thing his assegai straight into the
elephant's face. It stuck in his trunk.
With a scream ot pain the brute seized the
poor Zulu hurled him to the earth and plac-
ing his huge foot on his body about the mid-
dle twined his trunk round his upper part
ami tore him in two.
We rushed up mad with horror and fired
again and again and presently the elephant
fell upon the fragments of the Zulu.
As for Good he got up and wrung his
hands over the brave man who had given bis
life to save him and. myself though an old
hand 1 felt a lump in my throat. As for
With a scream of pain th" brute seized the
o-.r Zulu and hurled him lo the earth.
U. ibopa lie stood and contemplated the
biu ■ 'lead elephant and the mangled re-
mniii. of poor Khiva.
• Ah well” he said presently “he is dead
but Le died like a man.”
CHAPTER V.
OI K MAUCH INTO TUB DESERT.
We l.ad killed nine elephants and it took
us two days to cut out the tusks and get them
horn ■ and bury them carefully in the samt
mi ler a large tree which made a conspicu-
ous mark for miles. It was a wonderfully
tine lot of ivory. 1 never saw a better aver-
.«nig as it did between forty and titty
pounds a tusk. The tusks of the great bull
that killed poor Khiva scaled one hundred
and seventy pounds the pair as nearly as wo
could judge.
As for Khiva himself wo buried what re-
mained of him in an ant-bear hole together
with an assegai to protect himself with on
his journey to a better world. On the third
day we started on hoping that we might one
damreturn to dig up our buried ivory and in
duAcourse after a long and wearisome
tramp and many adventures which 1 have
not space to detail reached Sitanda’s Kraal
near the Lukanga River the real starting
point of our expedition. Very well do 1 re-
collect our arrival at that place. To the right
was_a scattered native settlement with a few
stone cattle kraals and some cultivated lands
down by the water where these savages
grew their scanty supply of grain and be-
yond it great tracts of waving “veldt” cover-
ed with tall grass over which herds of the
smaller game were wandering.
To the left was the vast desert. This spot
appeared to be the outpost of the fertile
country and it would be diflicult to say to
what natural causes such an abrupt change
in the character of the soil was due. But so
it was. Just below our encampment flowed
a little stream on the further side of which
was a stony slope the same down which I
had twenty years before seen poor Silvestre
creeping back after his att< inpt to reach So-
lomon’s Mines and beyond that slope began
the waterless desert covered with a species
of karoo shrub. It was evening when we
pitched our cainp and the great fiery ball of
the sun was sinking Into the desert sending
glorious rays of many-colored light flying all
over the vast expanse. Leaving Good to
superintend the arrangement of our little
camp I took Sir Henry with me and we
walked to the top of therslopo opposite and
gazed out across the desert The air was very
clear(and far far away I could distinguish
the faint blue outlines here and there capped
with .white of the great Sullman Berg.
“There” I sain there is the wall of Solo-
mon’s Mines but God knows if we shall ever
climb it”
“My brother should be there and if he is
I shall reach him somehow” said Sir Henry
in that tone of quiet confidence which
marked the man.
“I hope so” 1 answered and turned to go
back to the camp when 1 saw that we were
not alone. Behind us also gazing earnestly
toward the far-off mountains stood the great
Zulu Umbopa.
The Zulu spoke when he saw that I had
observed him but addressed himself to Sir
Henry to whom he hail attached himself.
“It is to that land that you would journey
Incubu?” (Eiephant—Sir Henry's Zulu
name) he said pointing toward the moun-
tains with his broad assegai.
1 asked him sharply what he meant by ad-
dressing his master in that familiar war. it

never came back.”
“How do von know It was iny brother?"
asked Sir Henry.
"Nay 1 know not. But the man when 1
asked what the white man was like said
that lie had your eves and a black beard. He
said too that the n ium of the hunter with
hiui was Jim th it he was a Beehuana hunt-
er and wore clothes.” •
"There is no doubt almut it” said 1 "1
knew Jim wed.”
Sir Hear n sidl'd. "I was sure of it” lie
said. “If G ingeM-t his min i u)mui a thing

his boyhood. 11 he meant to cross the Sull-
man Berg In- ha emssed it unless some ac-
cident has ov. rt ik n li m. and we must liMik
for him on the other side.”
Umbopa understood English though he
rarely spoke IL
"It is a far j uirii y. Incubu.” he put In
and I trans de.l his rem irk.
"Yes” i.nswered S.r Henry "It is far.
But there Is no journey upon this earth that
a man may not mak ■ if he sets Ills heart to
IL There is nothing. Umiiop i that he can-
not do there are no mountains lie may not
climb tlier i me no deserts lie cannot cross
save a mount dn and a desert of which you
are spared the kn iwledge. if love lends him
and lie holds Ills life in Ids hand counting it
ns nothing reidy to keep or to lose it as
Providence may order.”
I translated.
“Great words nr. father” answered tl.e
Zulu (I alwa s calk'd him a Zulu though
Im was not really omj "great swelling
words lit to lill the mouth of a man. You
are right mi father loeubu. Listen! what
Is life? It is a feather it is the seed of
grass blown hither and thither sometimes
multiplying itself and dying in the act
sometimes carried away into the heavens.
But if the seed tie good and heavy it may
perchance travel a little way on the road it
wills. It is well to try and journey one's
road and to tight with the air. Man must
die. At the worst he ean but die sooner. 1
will go with iou across the desert aud ovei
the mountains unless perelinnee 1 fall to the
ground on the way iny father.”
He iiaiised awhile and then went on with
one of those strange bursts of rhetorical elo-
quence which Zulus sometimes indulge in
and which to my mind full as they are ot
vain repetitions show that the race is by no
means devoid of u sort of intellectual power.
“What is life? Tell me oh! white men
who are wise who knows the secret of the
world that lies above and around the stars;
who flash their words from afar without a
voice; tell me white men the secret of our
life—whither it goes and whence it comes I
“Ye cannot answer; ye know not. Listen
I will answer. Out of the dark we came in-
to the dark we go. Like ii storm-driven bird
at night we fly out of the Now here; for a
moment our wings are seen in the light of
the fire and lo! we are gone again into the
Nowhere. Life is nothing. Life is all. It
is as the glow-worm that shines in the night-
time aud is black in the morning; iLis as the
white breath of the oxen in the winter; it is
as the little shadow that runs across the
grass and loses itself at sunset 1 have
spoken.”
"You are a strange man.” said Sir Henry.
Umbopa laughed. “It seems to me that
we are much alike incubu. Perhaps 1 seek
a brother over the innuiitains.” I looked at
him suspiciously. “What do you mean?”!
asked; “what do you know ot the moun-
tains?” .
"A little; a very little. There is a strange
land then* a laud of witchcraft and beauti-
ful things; a land of brave people and of
trees and streams and white mountains
and ot a great white road. I have heard of
it. But what is the good of talking? it
grows dark. Those who live to see will
see.”
Again I looked at him doubtfully. The
man knew too much.
“Ye need not fear me Macnmazabn” he
said interpreting my look. "1 dig no holes
for ye to tall in. 1 make no plots. If ev..
we cross those mountains behind the suit. I
will tell what 1 know. But Death sits upon
them. Be wise and turn back. Go and Imiu
elephant I have S|»ken.”
And without another word Tie lifted hi-
spear in salutation and turned toward the
camp where shortly aft rward we foun t
him cleaning a gun like any other Kafir.
“That is an odd man” said Sir Henry.
“Yes” answered I. “too odd by half. 1
don’t like his little ways. He knows some-
thing and won’t spit itwait But 1 suppo e
it is no use quainniug with him. We me in
for a curious u ip and a mysterious Zain
won’t make much difference one way or an-
other.”
Next day we made our arrangements for
starting. Of course it was impossible to
drag our heavy 11'plrint rol-'s and other kit
with us across the ii. sort so dismissing our
bearers we made an arrangement witli an
old native who had a Ureal e'ose by to take
care of tliem until wo relurn'"!. It went to
my heart to leave such things as those sweet
tools to the tender mi re.es of an old thief of
a savage whose greedy eyes I could see
gloating over them lint 1 took some pre-
cautions.
First of all 1 loaded all the rifles and in-
formed him that if lie touched them they
would go off. IL* Inst intly tried the experi-
ment witli iny eight liore. and it did go off
mid blew a hole right through one of his
oxen which were then being driven tip to
the kraal to say nothing of knocking him
head over heels with the reeoiL He got np
considerably startled and ivteii all pleased
at the loss of an ox which he Trad the impu-
dence to ask me to pay fur and nothing
would induce him to touch them again.
"Put the live devils up there in tiie thatch”
he said “out of the way or they will kill us
all.”
Then I told hhn that if when we came
back one of those things was missing 1
would kill liim and all his people by witch-
craft; and if we. died and In- tried to steal
the things I would come and h unit him and
turn biscatt! * mad and his milk sour till life
was a weariness and make the devils in the
guns come out and talk to him in a way he
would not like and generally give him a
good idea ot judgment to come. After that
he swore lie wou'd look after them as though
they w<e Ills lather’s spirit. He was a very
superstitious old K irtr and a great vi lain.
