L. A. HELL is the name OF the editor OF the
Wool, published at San Antonio.-lOrange
Tribune.
MAJOR Tom BRECKENRIDGE, Of the Austin
National bank, who took a prominent hand
in the Austin democratic convention, knew
the amount of greatness he was dealing with
when he suggested, in opposition to cutting the
delegation down to seven, that ''the interests
of Travis county are sufficient to warrant this
convention in sending as strong delegation
as possible" He believed there were at
least thirty good democrats in Austin and
Travis county anxious to attend the Galveston
convention, and he believed they should be
sent. Twenty-eight CAPABILITIES were accord
ingly elected to 60 to Galveston. If all the
counties sent delegations as numerous, Gal
weston would not hold them.
THE republicanism of Mr.. Hoar, breathing
the purest patriotism. granting the south what
it asks, what it needs and what 1t deserves,
without asking anything in return therefor, is
in rather striking contrast to the democracy
OF Mr. Cox, which ridicules our prayers, and
answers our moderate requests with scornfu
sheer and laughter.-[N. o. Times.
Democracy wears the FOOLS cap all the time
when it comes to the material interests of the
south.
IT is now certain that Judge Ireland will
risk his chances before the Galveston conven-
ton. 1t would be in the nature of death
bed penance for the Roberts democracy to
allow Ireland to be nominated.
IT is now claimed that Judge 1reland's
nomination is foregone conclusion. If it is
true, it only proves what we have stated be-
fore-the so-called democracy is preparing
for its downfall. For whenever ambition dies
out in a party its death is near at hand.
THE tariff, according to the Hancock
theory, is a local one. Yes, it is, so far as
democracy is concerned in districts where
protection is strong but it is national quss-
ton in congress, all the same.

Her Answer.

Through garden decked with myrtle
Wandered one summer day,
Heard above the robin singing
To his mate tender lay
Heard the reaper's merry whistle
As he CLEANED the golden wheat,
Watching oft dark-eyed maiden
Binding sheaves above his feet.
"Man and bird alike are happy"
Said l, ''darling, this is love-"
To sweet Nellie, walking near me
This, which life nor death can move.
"Can you doubt it ?" then l asked her,
AS she gazed in silence still
At the busy Ruth before US,
And the reaper on the hill.

AS she raised them to my face,
With timid, witching shyness,
And her native maiden grace.
doubt it," and bent to listen,
AS she whispered under breath,
With her head against my bosom
"Loye is stronger, dear, than DEATH"

Ex-Governor Davis.

The late proclamation of ex Governor Davis
calling a republican convention is remarka-
BILE document. 1t seems to foreshadow the
speedy dissolution of the republican party in
Texas and the formation of new party, form
liable, powerful, aggressive and determined
with such men in it as leaders, as will at once
cause it to take rank as a powerful enemy to
the democratic party. Should such party be
organized, the campaign will be one OF the
most interesting and exciting since the war in
Texas Richmond Nation.

General J. B. Weaver, the ex-presidential
greenback candidate has been canvassing
throughout Texas for more than week. He
is said to be powerful debater, and has made
good impressions wherever he has been. His
speech in this county has not only revived the
greenbaCk party but to our regret, has created
much enthusiasm among many who have here
tofJre been staunch democrats. Morgan SENT

A Neviy-Msfried Man by No Nc ans Soft.

From the Detroit Free Press.
A couple left the train at the Union Depot
and walked up Jefferson Avenue yesterday.
She had long curls and pink dress and a
yellow sash and he had standing collar
saving his ears off, buttonhole bouquet and
a pair Of new boots freshly creased and one
size too small. They hadn't walked two
blocks, when they came to man sitting on
box il front of store, and as he caught sight
of the m grin crept over his face like molas-
ses spreading out on single.
L" Grinning at US, Pspose?" querried the
young man. as he came to halt.
"Yes." frankly replied the sitter.
q" Tickes you most to death to see us take
hold of hands, don't it?''

"And you imagine you can see us feeling

minute to jam you seven feet into the ground!
told Lucy l was gong to begin on the first
man who looked cross eyed at us, and you
are the chap. Prepare to be pulverized!"
He took up the middle of the street like
runaway horse, and the young man took after
him, but it was no use. After race of a
block, the man who grinned gained so fast
that the other stopped short and went back to
his girl and his hat. Stretching forth his hand
to the innocent maiden he remarked:
"Beg pardon but didn't mean"

mop him.
"Say- hold-on-say-!"

Arrested for MURDER.

The Philadelphia Ledger of this
morning has the following: Deputy
Coroner Powers yesterday Investigated
the cause of the death Of Andrew Arm
slong, aged rs years, of Mddletown,
Del, workman III Allison 3 car shops,
| who died at the University Hospital,
on Saturday week, from injuries re-
ceived, as alleged, at the hands of
Charles A. Sawyer and Newton Lam
plugh.
1t was in evidence that on Friday
night, 10th instant, Sawyer and Arm.
strong were in tavern at Thirty.sec-
ond and Woodland avenue, drinking,
and that later in the night Lamplugh
came in. The trio had drink here,
when the laudlordput them out, saying
he was going to close up.
They went ut, and, in a few min
utes, Sawyer came back, asking where
he could get policeman, as Lamplugh
had struck Armstrong, and that he
himself had been struck while interfer-
| ing to save Armstrong. Next day
Sawyer and Lamplugh came to the
tavern, and, while talking about the
affair, Lamplugh admitted that he had
struck Armstrong.
1t appeared that they were also in
tavern at 3l04 Market street, where
Armstrong and Lamplugh had words
over some borrowed money, and that
they had been guarrelling and fighting
several times Oh the street On the fol.
lowing morning Armstrong appeared
at the Market street tavern with his
face badly bruised.
He stated that he had been beaten by
friend at Thirty-second and Market
street, and the morning Lamplugh told
fellow bOarser that be had row
with Armstrong, and that Sawyer got
hit by the bartender.
Armstrong worked on Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday, on the latter day
returning to his boarding house and
complaining of his head. He went to
bed and was then. sent to the
University Hospital, where he died
last Saturday.
Newton Lanplugh is wanted in this
city for similar ottense and has been
fugitive for several years. The occur.
rel CO happened in this city several
years ago at Second and Madison, when
he became engaged in an alteration
with painter named Smith, whom he
struck and the man afterwards died.
AT the inquest after a post.mortem
examination had been made there
was considerable doubt in the
minds of the Jury whether or not his
death resulted from the blow or from
excessive drinking, as the man was on
spree at the time and did not die for
week after being struck. Lamplugh,
however, became alarmed and left the
State and has not been seen In this city
since; a warrant has been in the hands
OF an officer for his arrest since the oc.
currence.
