SHERMAN, TEX., Sept, lS.--Another
refreshing rain visited us this morning
shortly after day light, that fell rapidly
for nearly two hours, The beneficial
effects of the showers two days pre-
viously werestill to be seen in the firm
streets and freedom from dust, amt
this blessing OF to-day coming 50 soon
after has given us n season that Will
revive vegetation aud start the grass
afresh for later grazing. Weconld hardly
realize that so fine a rain should be
limited 10 three miles west OF the city,
but citizens living there say beyond
that limit the ground Is still dry and
the dust in full bloom.
Tie celebrated Collinsville injune-
ton case is still occupying the atten'
ton Of the district count. One side has
finished the testimony, and this even
ing the opposing parties are examining
witnesses IL may occupy all of Fri
day TO conclude the argument, as a
fine array of able counsel are engaged
aud their clients will expect them TO
leave nothing undone TO obtain vic
tory.
Your reporter was little too pre-
vious in stating that the Cleveland
and Hendricks pole was set up yester'
day. When we left the square the
bosses told us IL would be up In an
hour, and knowing that q good Demo
crat would not misrepresent things we
said Il was up, ready for the banner.
But some hitch In the rigging arrested
the progress Of affairs ana on account
OF the heavy morning rain, work
was not resumed on 1t
until after noon to-day. The
speaking appointed for tonight viii
doubtless come oil, but we had rather
not say again when that pole will be
nut IN place. It's mighty heavy, bat
fortunately there b no similarity be-
tween this pole and the gallant ticket
Il Is intended to represent, for there il
no inert dead weight ia the magical
names of Cleveland and Hendricks.

Congressional District may, already be put
down for Cleveland. The six delegates
from Brooklyn may also be considered as Mr.. Cleye-

Mr.. Kelly's recent alliance with the Republicans
in the Hew-York Board of Aldermen causes
considerable alarm among the Democratic pollti-
clans of tho interior. They already fear the Trans
fer of Tammany votes TO the Republican party az
the National election. In their alarm 1t Is possible
they may make an attack upon Tammany IN the
State Convention and strive 10 lessen ITS IN

OF the steps taken to diminish Tammanys influence
will be the passage Of law by the Legislature de-
