EX-GOVERNOR DAVIS CANDIDACY.

In its proper place in to-day's paper may be
found the announcement of Elk Gov. Davis, as
a candidate for congress from this, the tenth
congressional district. Despite his politics,
and all that has been said and written of him
and his administration, he has host of friends
and admirers in old democratic Williamson
county, who, next November will rally to his
support and poll for him heavy vote. While
there are many who radically differ with the
distinguished governor in his political views,
yet, that he is courteous, affable gentleman,
talented statesman and an honest man can
not be gainsaid, and should not deter us from
speaking kindly of Gov. Davis, and treating
him with that courtesy due him. He will
make vigorous canvass, land poll heavy vote.
i Taylor Williamson county, Texan.
Governor Davis will most certainly be
elected. The people are determined to show
their independence Of c'iques, rings, caucuses
and fixed-up conventions. They want just
such man as Davis to req sesent them in
Washington; they need his services, and they
are not 10 be frightened from voting for him

EAGLES NEST.


To the Editor of THE EVENING LIGHT:
Eagles nest is one of the most peculiar
places in the state. 1t lies in valley and yet
is considerably above the Rio Grande. 1t is
now quite city of tents, upwards of three
hundred being scattered around; some of them
being 5oxIco feet The only wood building
being the store of Max Meyer, who has good
stock, and does good business.
There are, at the lowest estimate, twenty
saloons and gambling tents, two tents OF
i'll fame, and a dance hall. which, is
on full run every Sunday, and two or
doves from San Antonio have alighted
here in their flight, and have made things live
ly at the dance hall. The dancing here is a

two figures

The most curious thing here, and still more
amusing, is the action of Roy Bean. Roy is
justice of the peace, and holds court in tent
I6xI8. Not more than thirty yards from his
court is the Justices saloon and gambling
tent, where drink is freely dispensed, and a
dozen monte tables are in full blast And it
is no uncommon thing for suckers to get full
in the Justices saloon and sleep off the effects
in his court, not as prisoner, but as guest
Capt. Tobin's son has been working here.

The assassination of our old friend B.

of his goodness, his kindness, his generosity
and his charity. He was man who held up

come up 10 the same standard. His business,
that OF pawnbroker, put him 10 connection
with the distressed and unfortunate. as we'll
as with the vicious and dishonest. For the
thief, Schwarz had the greatest hatred, and
never left stone un urned to secure and con-

that he probably lost his life, But for the dis
