The governor yesterday received
an
invitation to deliver the opening
ad-
dress at the San Antonio fair.
He also received the following let
ter which is of interest to the people
of Austin.
Denison Tex. October 28 1889.
Governor L. 8. Ross Austin Tex. :
Sir In February next the American
Horticultural society will hold its
biennial meeting in Texas. The place
of meeting is not yet appointed. Its
selectiou was left with the executive
board by motion made at the River
side meeting in California.
Owing to the society having receiv
ed a very cordial invitation Irom you
to attend the dedication of the state
capitol the officers have been favor
ably inclined to hold the next meet
ing in Austin provided the horticul
turalists and citizens oner such facili-
ties for entertainment and place of
meeting as such a national society
should receive
The society has an active member
ship among the leading horticulturists
of the United States numbering
nearly 800. At least one-half of this
number is expected to attend the
Texas meeting.
It is expected of me as one of the
executive board residing in the state
to take initial steps toward securing a
suitable place of meeting.
Though Dallas and Jort Wortn are
very anxious to nave tne meeting
with them we feel that we owe it to
the society to Texas to the capital
and her governor to give the capital
the first bid for this important con-
vention. Customarily it is expected that a lo
cal committee of the place in which
the meeting is to be held will secure a
suitable hull for meetings (if permiusa-
ble a hall in the capital would be
most graciously acceptable 'to tlie-so-
ciety). Also an exhibition of horti-
cultural products which m the nature
of things will be chiefly local at this
could be added to con
siderably from the southern portion
of the state.
I shall correspond with Commis
sioner Foster and o'hers oi the city
hoping to have responses from and
most favorable propositions lor the
meeting. Very respectfully t

executive office.
The governor yesterday received the
following resolutions passed up in Col
orado and from their tone it is evident
that the patriotic Republicans up mere
are disgruntled over the ruling per-
nutting Mexican lead ores in to lexas
free of duty. The ruling however is
a good thing for Laredo's ' smelting
works :
Aspen Pitkin County Col.(
October 24 1889. .
At the Republican county conven
tion held at this place October 22
18t9 the following resolutions were
adopted: . .
Whereas. The secretary of the
treasury has made a ruling admitting
Mexican lead ores into this country
free of duty thus throwing our mines
and miners into direct competition
with the Mexican peon who lives
upon from 30 to 50 cents per day;
and
Whereas His vacillating and un
certain action in handling this ques
tion shows him to be a man of en-
tirely too little force of character to be
an associate of such statesmen as our
honorable secretary of state or that
venal influences have affected him in
this decision and
Whereas His action in not increas
ing the cuinage of silver (having full
authority to do so and the wants of
trade clearly showing that it is a
necessity at this time) convinces us
that he ia-clearly under the influence
of and a tool of the Wall street pow-
ers that be and antagonistic to the
best interests of the people; it is -
Resolved That this convention of
representative Republicans of Pitkin
county one of the greatest silver pro-
ducing counties in the United States
call upon the president to remove Mr.
Windoin and place a mau there who
would not be iufluenced by the capital
ists whose interests in these matters are
directly against those of the people
and one who would redeem the pledge
of the Kepublican party to the labor
ing men of this country in the last
campaign.
Resolved That a copy of these res
olutions be furnished the president of
the United States and the governors
of all western and southern states.
In compliance with the wish of the
convention I have the honor to trans

APPEALING FOB AID.
A Plea for the Maimed and Disabled
Con-
federate Soldiers.
To the People of Texas :
Several years ago "Ihe John a
Hood Camp" of this city inaugurated
a plan for establishing a home for dis-
abled indigent ex-Confederate soldiers.
The philanthropic men who under
took the enterprise had many difficul-
ties to encounter but have accom
plished a good work and can point
with pride to a beautiful home where
about thirtv of the old heroes are
comfortably sheltered.
The present accommodations how
ever are not commensurate witu me
demand and hundreds of worthy ap-
. 'll. A 1
plicants left in penury by the vicissi-
tudes of war and doomed to remain so
bv physical disabilities niUBt be de
nied admittance.
Travis county co Id easily care for
her own depend' t soldiers but the
object of this ir titution is to shield
from beggary .d want all the brave
fellows wnose prodigies of valor were
once the admiration Of the WOrld.
The state of Texas in 1861 called
her sons to arms and without que
tioning the right or considering the

call. For four years upon every con-
tested field her banners led the van ol
battle and her five-pointed star was
always found among the dead ana
wounded.
When the war was ended many ol
these maimed heroes returned to their
homes unable to care for themselves
and have been buffetted from place to
place whenever charity opened a door
or pity promised assistance.
No reasonable person would expect
one community to raiBe money suffi-
cient to construct the necessary build-
ings and furnish the necessary sup
plies for all the helpless ex-Confeder
ates of our state and it is but just and
fair that every town and county
should assume a pro-rata of expenses
In presenting the claims of such an
enterprise it re piira neither logic nor
pathos to awaken sympathy in every
generous nature and surely the "men
of gray't "the knightliest throng
whereof the world holds record can
not neglect the comrades who fell by
their sides as they marched through
that long night oi sorrow and blood
We who when the morning
dawned were left unscarred by blade
of ball will be unworthy the colors
we wore and tho pistory we made it
now we fail to cimo up to the full
measure of a soldier's highest duty
Mauy posts of the Grand Army
with a magnanimity unparallod in
history have made liberal contnbui
tions to this Condfeerate Home and
words cannot express our gratitude to
those true and gallant soldiers ut
every impulse oi mannoou imposes

The United States government dis
