KAUFMAN, via Terrell, June 12.-The first
gun in the congressional campaign opened
to-day in kaufman, in the shape ola speech
from Colonel w. l.. Crawford. The pre-
eminence of that distinguished gentleman
as speaker drew great crowd to the
courtroom, many persons from Terrell,
among them Judge George Smith, chair.
man of the state democratic committee, and
numerous members of the local bar. In
the courtroom were Colonel John L..
Henry, James b. Simpson, Sawnie Rob-
ertson, w. G. Sterrett and others from
your city. After brief exordium, review
ing ably the origin OF the democratic party
and its services to the country, the speaker
addressed himself to the questions Of
finance, internal revenue, taxation,
tariff and railway monfopolise les
ginning that the most incisive portions of
the speech were to be directed to the abnor-
NAL growth OF railway and other corpora
tons, and that this question as between
him and his adversary was to be the pivotal
point around which attack and defense
would center.
TO say that the majestic and eloquent
language of the speaker did full justice to
this subject would not fulfill the expectancy
Of the public in this county. On all sides,
after the conclusion OF the speech, were To
he heard the commentators of different
groups of the late listeners.
This first speech will and has made a
most serious impression upon Kaufman
county, and will no doubt be long remem-
bered by the crowd who had the
pleasure oflistening to it. Colonel Crawford
possesses in marked degree that vox ar
eentia, that silver voice of which Cicero
made such honorable mention. His ges-
ture. are graceful, his thoughts logical, his
words fitting and Outlines most eloquent.
With such capacities, this gentleman will
make most formidable competitor in the
brilliant contest now just opening in this
district. -

nnr. RIninn,s NIce nI.crIminntion.

1t was reported some weeks ago that Mr.. John +.
Smyths State commi ttee had solicited the appear
ance of MIR. Blaine in The New York Republican
canvass, and afler long waiting Mr.. Blaine has
appeared-by way Of Delaware. III the letter he has
addressed TO the chairman of the Republican
committee of that little state he gives the follow
in5 advice to his political friends and followers IN
New York: " For the remainder of this campaign
Republicans everywhere should bend their ener-
gies to securing majority in the next House OF
Representatives. Whatever causes of just discon-
tent may exist with State nominations, unfairly
and injnriously thrust upon the pacty, and what
ever means may be taken TO resent such wrongs
aud repel such indignities, 1t is evidently the
duty of all true Republicans TO use every honor
able effort to hold control Of the popular branch
of Congress" This is II nice distinction which
Mr.. Blaine draws between the State and Congress
sonal tickets Lest ii may fail to be precisely APP
pretended by anybody in this neighborhood let
us interpret 1t To them. What he intends Is to ad-
wise them by nll means TO defeat Messrs. Folger
and Carpenter tho Administration candidates lor
governor and lieutenant governor. but by no
means TO fail TO vote against Mr. Perry Belmont,
the DemocretiC candidate for Congress in the first
district. Unfortunately, however, for Mr.. Blaine's
plan i'll the Belmont matter, the motive OF the
advice in that particular is quite as tneligble to
Administration Republicans i'll Suffolk, Queens,
and Richmond as II is to his own friends and fol-
lowers in thoge countIeS.-NeIU York Herald.

Governor Cameron at Alexandria.

Our sister city has been favored with
many speeches during the current can
vass in Virginia. 1t is good sign that
Alexandria, which has made special
boast of its Bourbonism, should at last
yield to the American idea and become
dcbateable ground. We remember Harry
RiddIcberger's splendid speech in mid
summer, when he proclaimed the Vir-
ginian departure from the belittling in
huences of sectionalism; John Wise's
noble speech of q few weeks since is
fresh in the minds of the voters of Alex
andria, who thronged to hear him, and
tonight the same community has an op-
portunity to hear Governor Cameron.
Governor Cameron spoke at Alexan-
dria year ago. His speech began with
an injunction to the voters of the old
town to think for themselves. Their
unanimity n the old ruts of Bourbonism
was gently handled by the coming gov
ernor of the Old Dominion, for he as
sured the voters of Alexandria that he
should be ele cted governor, and that his
election would mean an abrupt depar-
ture from all the old Bourbon methods.
Cameron kept his promise. He is gov
ernor-loved and honored by all Vir-
ginians who honor manhood and respect
the renewal of the old-time traits of Vir-
ginia's governors. He has also kept his
promise in leading his party in Virginia
in paths that lead away from Bourbonism.
Alexandria will do well to turn out in
force tonight to hear Virginia's governor.
1t will listen to thoughtful and eloquent
sentences, stating the new life now dawn
ing for old Virginia, of which her young
governor is proper representative.
Throughout Virginia his ability is recog-
nized by people of all shades of opinion.
In the Valley last week he was welcomed
on the hustings as Wise and the Floyds
and Mcdowell and the old-time Virginia
governors were hailed when they ap-
peared before the people whom they
counseled and from whom they received
counsel. In Alexandria tonight he will
be welcomed by an audience, not only of
Liberals, but of all Virginians in the old
borough who are anxious to hear dis
cussed on high plane the issues of the
current canvass.

NIahone'S Way.

Whenever some Bourbon barnacle is
scraped off from the Administration ship
at Washington, and especially when such
barnacle had been dishonesty and
fraudulently charged to Virginia, State
never seen by the barnacle, then all the
Bourbon and assistant Bourbon papers
like the New York Tribune howl in con-
cert, and exclaim that after much kick
ing and squirming "Mahone had his
way" This is we'll. Mahone's way must
be Il good one, for it appears to result in
Bourbon defeat. The whining of Bour-
bon papers matters not, so long as their
party loses Virginia every year. By all
means let Malone have his way.

A Stool Pigeon.

We mean Mr.. Dawson, an alleged cam
didate for Congressmau-at-large from
Virginia. Mr.. Dawson is a colorod man,
parson, man of fair requirements, we
hear. Moreover, Mr.. Dawson last au-
tumn voted for Major Daniel, Bourbon
candidate for governor. He voted for
Major Daniel, who had heaped ignominy
upon the colored people when he de-
clared that he was unwilling that prop
osition of great public concern should
be submitted to the "black hordes
of Eastern Virginia" lie voted,
too, against the present governor,
Cameron, who had signalized his admin
istration as mayor of Petersburg by his
impartial administration of law. Both
races complimentcd a municipal govern
ment so equitable, so admirable, so en-
tirely adjusted to the written law and the
unwritten law ofoliicial faith and personal
duty Yet Mr. Dawson voted against
indorsing Camcron's administration
which all his race and all good citizens
approved by repeated Endorsements at
the polls. Mr.. Dawson did more. He
emphasized his subserviency to his
Bourbon patrons by affirming his SYM
pathy with their hatred of the educa-
tional growth of his own race. For, be it
remembered, the Bourbon candidate for
governor was on record rs having de-
clared that he would "put the torch to
every school-house in Virginia" rather
than fail to satisfy the Shylockg who made
claims which Major Daniel and his party
acknowledged, but which the people of
Virginia, sustained by the decisions of
the courts of the world, denied.
Worse than all for Mr.. Dawson's future
standing with his own race is his present
attitude as to the Virginia canvass. Last
year he was a prophet of evil for the
coalition of his own race with the gallant
eX-Confederate gentlemen who sought
then, and seek now, universal enfran-
chisement of thought and universal
political liberty in the South. To-day,
in the face of accomplished results in
Virginia in behalf of the colored people,
and in defiance of his prophesies of last
year, Mr.. Dawson is now where he was
then-the unrelenting enemy of the sue
cess of those who would give his race
chance.
OF course Mr.. Dawson understands the
hopelessness of his attempt to divert
colored voters from John Wise to him
self as means of helping the candidacy
of Mr.. Massey. Like all men who seek
to use race prejudices for their own per-
sonal advancement, Mr.. Dawson is badly
left" Everybody understands the
motive of his candidacy, and all inteli-
gent people guess the means by which
he gets small AUDIENCES for his stale ex-
cuses for treachery to the substantial
interests of the race to which he belongs.
Bourbons applaud his Intellectual efforts
to divert voters of his race from their
friends Bourbons will despise him
when his helplessness to do that medi-
tated crime shall have been exposed.
Mr.. Dawson, you are a stool pigeon.
This ought to be no news to you.
