places and when night closed Down over the
scene the heavens were pail of red rejecting
tho lurid fires Of the burning city. Then the
Washoe gale came up in its fury and swept
through the stricken city with roar that sound
ed like the expiring groan of the universe In
the midst of all this the dreamer staggered
ON until he met the widow Cooper, who Cast a
Saratoga trunk on his shoulder and babe him

strokes of = club. As he bent baneath the
burden the vast throng with common i'm
pulse began to hurl their household effects up
on the pile until it reached above Mount
Davidson just then in the throes of volcanic
eruption. He left the city with an hundred
tons OH his shoulders, and the owners Of the
goods lashing him along the Geiger grade with
curses. As he reached Thorps toll house
they tried to collect dollar for every old wash
stand and bedstead he had on his back.
Then came crash and looking back the old
Comstock ledge had disappeared, and he woke
up to realize that he had been sonversins with

GALVESTON, June s. 1850.
Another of Galveston's old citizens has
gone beyond the "border." Sunday MORN
ing at o'clock Andrew Baldinger fell to
sleep in death, and was inferred on the same
evening, with the ceremonies of the Luther
an church and the Independent Order OF
Odd Fellows Mr.. Baldinger was native
of Switzerland and came to this country at
the age of eighteen and located in Baltimore
in 1881. Here he found employment rs a
ba er, and remained until 1886, when he
came to Texas, landing on the island OF Gal
weston in the summer of that year. de re-
turned in the ensuing winter determined to
make his home in the newly fedged republic.
He became a citizen in 1889, and from that
date has been prominent resident Of
this island and city. His first business
venture WAS to start bakery.
Quite rivalry sprang up between him and
Christ ,pher Fox as to who should bake and
sell the first bread in the then embryo city
Of Galveston. Baldinger, in bis haste,
removed the support to bis oven too soon
and it caved in, giving first bread to Fox; but
not to be outdone he baked the first pies, and
there are old citizens yet living who still
speak in high terms of sandy" Baldinger's
dried-apple pies. Mr.. Baldinger was an ex-
emplary business man and att nded to his
business closely. Economical in his tastes
and habits, he accumulated money and in
vested it judiciously in property, which be-
came valuable as the city grew iRto promi-
hence. He was man who never sought pub
lie position or posts Of honor, but prior to
the war he b d served the county and city AS
Commissioner and Alderman, when there
was no pecuniary reward attached to such
offices. He was married in this city in 1910,
and leaves five sons and two daughters
TO mourn his loss. His wife
who was devoted holp-mate. died in 1871.
Mr.. Baldinger Tor many wears shas been
great sufferer from rheumatic affection, and
IN consequence of his continued sutferings
retired from business, leaving it in the hands

One of the saddest funerals we ever wit
messed took place in our city this morning a
10 O'clock AS al eady announced in Thu
HERALD, Jack, the eldest son of Senator
Richard Coke, died in this city on the 9th
after sickness of nearly twelve weeks du
ration. His father had been telegraphcd fol
the evening before his death. But when he
arrives it will be not to see his son, but to
learn that loving hands have laid his body in
its last resting place, and that his spirit has
flown into the presence of its God.
Young Coke was almost marvel of moral
ity and modest worth was beloved snd ad-
mired by all who knew him, and almost idol
lied by his mother, TO whom he was attached
with az tender an affection as ever son had for
mother. The members of the Waco Lyceum,
of which the deceased WAS President at the
time of his death, and a few other of his
intimate friends, arrayed as pall.bearers
marched in solemn file on either side of the
hearse as it bore his body to the grave.
Among these were young, chivalrous, lion
hearted Texans, who had known Jack Coke
since early childhood; who were educated
with him at the 7. NJ. l., and have been init
mately associated with him for the greater
part Of his life. And when we saw these,
devoid as they are of everything akin to
feminine weakness, shedding tears over the
bier of their dead friend, we could but say
"Talk not OF sorrow till thou hast seen
The tears of warl Ike men,"
Among the hundreds of mourners around his
grave were to be seen many of the old
colored people of Waco. These. though no
longer part and parcel of the families of
their old masters are always ready and
quick to volunteer their services when
ever one of these -old masters or any
of their families are sick or in distress; and
when death removes them will always fol-

leaders on the Republican side in the
Assembly last winter. a place to which
his abilities entitled him, and his pro-
motion to the Speakers chair would
be well deserved. We would gently

the lake shore counties that the
healthy Republican majorities of the
Northwest have a right to claim a
proper share of the honors to to be
bestowed.

REPUBLICANISM VS.. STATES
RIGHTS.
BY JOEL FOSTER.

AIEssRs. EDrToRs:--In your issue OF
Nov. llth you make the following
statement:
Upon the question of State SOver-
eighty the Democratic party was de-
feated in 1850. 1854, 1858, 1872, 1875
and 1880. Six times have the people
Of this country decided in favor of
National supremacy. Will the Dem
ocrats still adhere to this issue, and
again submit it to the people i'll l084!''
can't see how Republican that is
in any way posted in the past history
of his country can use such language.
can only account for it from the fact
that the most of the boy editors that
now edit papers were babies twenty
three years ago when these things
took place. Had you looked back
twenty two or twenty-three years to
1878 you would have found that the
Republican party came into power by
taking an advanced step in state rights
principle by adding territorial rights
to it, and thus the responsibility of
carrying out tits great principle con-
tended for by Mr.. Douglass and the
Democrats Of the North, as well AS a
good portion of TIE Democrats of the
South, fell on the Republican party.
If you boys who learned your states
manship by playing devil in print

this, and have the record ut hand, as,
in fact, have taken an active part IN
almost everything that has taken place
in the Valley Of the Mississippi during
the past fifty years.
The Republican party was led to
take this advance step i'll freedom and
self government at the time of the
Kansas struggle, and were led on to
| the platform that Abraham Lincoln
came into power on by state rights
and free soil Democrats. Let us look
| 1t the record made on the Lecompton
