a WORD TO DALLAS PEOPLE.

ward a commercial metropolis rank
ing with st. Louis, Kansas City ana
New Orleans. All of those cities have
flourlshing and enterprising afternoon
newspapers, valuable aids in their pro-
gress. Dallas hos within its limits and
the confines of its several prosperous
suberbs population which the HER
AID believes will appreciate and sus-
tain good afternoon paper in this
city, and, which, with that fair share
of the advertising patronage, shrewd
merchants always want to accord the
popular evening journal, will enable
the HERALD to soon reach the goal of
its ambitions first class evening
newspaper, the pride of all Dallas.
The publisher of the HERALD has
made special study OF the
evening paper business for the
past year, with view to
success in this city. We appreciate
the fact that there are thousands Oh
families in Dallas, who do not feel able
to enjoy the more expensive luxuary
of morning journal; and hundreds OF
other men there are who may be
pecuniarily able, but whose wage-em-
ploymcnt requires them to leave home
too early for the enjoyment of the
morning paper. These two large
classes, particularly, is it the aim OF
the HERALD to reach and supply for
their leisure evening hours the gener-
al and local news of the day, fresh and
crisp, with other entertaining and i'll
structive reading matter. City news
will be the HERArD's special feature
the proceedings of the courts, full and
reliable reports of all occurrences OF
any interest during the day, social
news, church and temperance matters
of interest, reports of the progress OF
the city: and too, will the HERALD al
WAYS be found working for
whatever may tend to improve the
moral and social condition of our peo-
pie. the adv ancement of education,
and the material progress and pros
perity of Dallas.
The field has been carefully survey
ed; it is inviting; and while it may re-
ouirc vet few more months to clear
away the "stumps" and "roots' which
would impede progress in its cultiva-
ton, the HERALD feels quite sure of
the way and possesses the energy and
resources necessary to make the trip.
THE Democratic people of Texas
honor and appreciate Governor Ire
land. 1t was the Yeoman Democracy
which first elected him governor
against the intrigues of the prominent
politicians of the state; and it was the
rank and file which rcnominated him
for the second term, when the manip-
ulators Of the party would have pre-
ferred another. The time has come
now when the people will show their
hand again. Ireland has an honest,
straightforward way of doing things
without consulting policy, or else but
conscience, which pleases the people;
and his political integrity and ability
will not go unappreciated. The In
dustrial Alliance of southern Texas
says:
In spite Of the active canvass made
by Gen. Maxey and Judge Terrell
notwithstanding the great speeches"
of the latter, especially that double
shotted, heavy calibred one at Bastrop,
which his enthusiastic admirers and
clacqueurs, going off at half cooked,
pronounce "the greatest speech of the
age:" in spite of the rumor that the
friends of Hancock have gone over to
the Maxey camp in spite Ofall these
things il is believed in Austin, that
Governor Ireland is still in the lead
still has CALI on all competitors-for
United States senator. 1t is believed
by great many good men that the
senatorship is a position where "the
Office should seek the man-not the
man-the office The great mass of
the people, too, understand and appre-
ciate this high and noble sentiment;
and, hence the quiet, honest "ox-cart'
Governors brigh! prospects.
