this morning between police officer
and Teutonic gentleman named

Travis. After inspecting the prem.

Less rather earnestly, and said:

from head to foot for few moments,
with a grin of supreme contempt on
his countenance, and answered him
bitterly:

he took the fellow by the arm and
waltzed him before His Honor, with
out further ceremony. Explanations
followed, however, and the Mayor
discharged Less on his solemn prom
Use that he would clean up his prem

he would poll more votes in Wash

crat has polled since the war.
We offer this amendment, and will
see him that and 800 better; we say
of Democratic votes Hancock will
receive less than any Democrat since
the war. And further, that he relies
entirely upon the Radicals of this

some appearance. The burnt build
I ing has been replaced by Il fine new
one, and many improvements have
been added to the establishment.
The EXAMINER is a very influential
paper, and we are glad to see the de-
termination and ability displayed by

TIE EXAMINER is one of the most in

been greatly missed during its forced

The Austin platform is canon law
to every democrat in Texas. 1t is
the only test of democracy just as Il
belief in the thirty-ninc articles is "a
test of an Episcopaian- If Judge
Hancock does not believe in the
Austin platform they have no right
to run him on the democratic ticket.
The Denison Daily NeeS says:
There seems TO be reason for grave
doubt as to John Hancock's financial
views being in accord with the Dem
ocratic platform. If he does not in
dorse that platform, as an honest man
he should have refused the nomina-
ton for Congressman. The Fort
Wort Democrat, sherman Courier
and other papers ask Judge Hancock
to define his position plainly and
without equivocation. That Is mo-
ton we heartily second,

Scbleicher has not only learned the
lessons of the Eastern aristocrats
thoroughly, but has caught their tone.
According to his speech at Goliad,
he virtually calls all advocates of the
repeal of the resumption act rascals
and communists.
Never was such an unparalleled in
suit given to, or such outrageous Ian
guage used by a man talking TO and
of his constituents. Does Schleicher
take the democracy of Texas for poor
white trash and scums of society that
he dare to accuse all of us who favor
the repeal of resumption us being
men acting with dishonest ends.
Since the first stump speech made
in the country down to the very last
there never was such an insult flung
in the teeth of voters.
