GALVESTON, July 1S-Immediately after
breakfast caucus of Roberts friends was
held at Turner hall, Broadin presiding.
Judge Broadin said he was astonished to
learn the caucus was intruded upon by the
non-supporters of Roberts, and hoped such
would not be in the present caucus, SAID
the complaint by Ireland's friends was that
Roberts had not agreed to renouAce as a
candidate and was not present to take part;
that Roberts was the choice of the people
of Texas for governor, and the people
would support the man whom the office
sought, and who had not sought the office.
He said the convention should nominate
no man who electioneered tor himself; that
Roberts friends should determine to put
him in nomination, and nothing would
please the people better.
Lair, of Collin county, said he was from
the Gibraltar of Texas democracy If 1t
were known that Roberts would accept the
nomination, his county would be unit for
him. After o comparison OF admlnlstra-
tions he said he would not desire to attempt
to follow in his footsteps, and he who did
dug his political grave.
Carroll, of Denton, would if possible,
make Roberts governor. He reiterated
Lair's remarks; said If any other man Ill
Texas. save Roberts, was nominated curses
loud and deep would be sounded from the
gull to Red River, from the Sabine to the Rio
Grande. He looked TO the Old Alcalde rs the
Moses TO lead out the democracy to victory.
Garce, of Huntsville rose and said he was
not delegate. but friend.

sTbe HERALD has been informed by
Roberts supporters that his name will be
placed in nomination and kept in. This
