About 1900 people, including a great

Yesterday. Apparently all the candidates
except Judge Breckenridge aud Mr..
WeIlmer were present. The sp,akipg
opened with an eloquent democratic
speech by Hon. j NJ. Moore, secretary of
state. He exposed in strong terms and
from the records the legislative career of
candidate Marion Martin, showing that lie
had voted for the cormorant and the cor

reservation of the Texas and Pacific rail.

Mr.. Walton, candidate for county at
torney on the democratic ticket, followed
with short talk for the party and party
organization.
This was followed by the feast of excel
lently barbecued meats and savoy yiands
furnished in the greatest abundance, and
served up to the hungry multitude by the
attentive and hos pitable committee. After
dinner Captain Giles and Judge Glasscock
debated their claims for support. Giles
showed up the inconsistent position of
Gasscock in very forcible style. Glass
cock said all that could be said for the
mongrel ticket and himself.

to work to give his version of the story
told by his opponent, aud proved that
Glasscock had not told a straight tale,
but had handled the truth in a
very reckless manner. As he warmed to
his work he peeled portion of his raiment
and reached out for his opponents scalp
in q way that was terrible to behold. He
cut and hacked at the Judge, knocked him
down, he sat upon him, he jumped on
him, he kicked him, and finally swept the
floor with his nsngled remains. Some of
the audience said, "Serves him right,
but the majority, while thinking the law
yer deserved a whipping, thought the
granger had dealt rather severely with
him. Having disposed of Glasscock,
Giles proceeded to enunciate the princi-
Piles of democracy and defend party Or
ganizstion and called upon his hearers to
stand by the old storm beaten, but ever
reliable, democratic party as represented
by Giles. He charged his opponent with
being a republican in the guise of
democrat, and ventured to prophecy that
November wou d find the GeorgetoWn
lawyer so deeply showed under that ne
would never tpaw out. When time was
called for Judge Glssscock to reply he
came up smiling, but in sadly deplapi-
tated condition. He tried hard to gain
the sympathy of his audience and got
off few almanac Jokes on Giles, but his
blows generally fell short and
did his opponent no harm.
He, in burst of candor,
admitted that he was tine chosen champion
of the grand old republican party, that
has done so much for the rich and so
little for the poor, and again predicted
that, with the aid of republican votes, he
would sail into the senate chamber, while
Giles would make voyage on salt river.
To an unprejudiced observer Giles had
the best of the argument, and was the first
favorite by twenty TO one, but citizens
who attended the meeting expecting to
hear the candidates treat of state issues, |
went home sadly disappointed in both
candidates. If, at future discussions, they |
would quit mud singing and deal with |
practical questions of the day, such as |
how Texas is to obtain deep water port |
how her roads are to be improved and her |
school system developed, it would be more |
creditable to them, and, perhaps, more
profitable to those who attend their
meetings.

During last month there were three
burisls in the city cemetery of children
who died of the disease outside Of the city
limits.
All the doctors spoken to on this sub
ject say the disease in this city does not
present any symptoms of an epidemic,
nor do they anticipate one. Indeed,
cases have been related to the reporter
where several children were in the family
yet only one of them would have the
disease.
In this connection Doctor Weller yes
terday stated to reporter that in the
case of little Ruth Sherard Horton, whose
death was published in yesterdays STATES
MAN, that he WAC fret called on Thursday
to see three children at the Horton house.
They had some throat disease, but the
symptoms were not at all diphtheric. On
Friday no called again. Little Ruth's
throat was still sore, but nothing indi-
GATED diphtheria. He, however, as a
matter OF precsution, warned the family
to keep the other children out of her room,
and not to allow the neighbours children
to visit the house. On Saturday he dis
missed the case. Wednesday, the 18th, at
ii O'Clock, he was again called to SEE his
little patient and found her still suffering
with her throat. 1t was clear, however,
with no indications of diphtheretic de-
pOsits. She was very pale and unneces-
sarily feeble, judging from all outside ap-
pearances. This made him uneasy, and,
after leaving her he met Doctor Graves,
the city physician, and reported the case
saying no was not satisfied with it, and If
diphtheria developed, he would promptly
report it. Late that night he was sum
moned to see her again. And she was very
sick. He called in Doctor Graves, and in
about an hour the child dit with all the
symptoms of diphtheria. Doctor Weller
says that when called first on Wednesday
he warned the nearest neighbors to keep
their children at home, as the case might
develop into diphtheria, and if they
were permitted to visit the sick child they,
and not he, is responsible. He says diph-
liberia did not develop so "a to be dis
tinguished until few hours before the
death of the child, and that such is fire.

clans with whom the reporter talked,

The conclusion to be arrived at then,
is, that if doctor has a case of bad sore
throat and he has doubts about its true
character, he had better isolate the child
and flag the house and wait for develop

JUDGE BRECKENRIDGE.
The Grand Jury Return a True
Bill Against Him.

Yesterday morning it was noIsed around
that County Judge j. M. Breckenridge
had been indicted by the grand jury.
1t was true and the Indictment is based
upon the following:
Article 1875 of the criminal procedure
reads:
"There shall be paid to the county
Judge, by the county, the sum of So for
lach criminal action tried and finally dis
posed of before him."
Up to November Judge Breckenridge
as is shown by the official records, did not
charge fees for cases which we're dismissed
without trial, but on that day he made
out list of all cases which had been
dismissed after he became county Judge,
and all cases that had been retired on the
docket to await the arrest of defendant
and fees of So in each of such cases. The
bill presented on that day, embracing 131
cases dismissed and twelve cases retired,
and upon that bill he drew from the
county treasury 1929 For this bill he is
indicted. Since that time, it is alleged,
he has collected regularly fees for cases
dismissed as cases regularly "tried and
finally disposed Of" Act 240, penal code,
reads: 'If any officer authorized by law
to demand or receive fees of Office, shall
wilfully demand or receive fees not al
lowed by law he shall be punished by a
fine not less than $25 nor more than
500"
The Judge offered to give bond
yesterday, but was released on his own
recognizance.
Mr.. Wellmer had his bonds fixed at 800
in each case, which he gave with Major
Breckenridge and Mr.. Woodbridge as
sureties
These are cases involving official mis-
conduct, and of which the district court
alone has jurisdiction.

TRAVIS COUNTY, October 10.
Special Correspondence to the Statesman,
Last night Capt. B. c. Giles and Judge
&. w. Glasscock, aspirants for senatorial
honors in the Twenty fourth district, net
in the amphitheater of Waters school
and gave an exhibition of their skill and
dexterity in political fighting. 1t was
agreed between the combatants that the
Judge should open and close the battle.
.dr. G. A. Graves acted as time keeper
The audience was large and attentive, and
showed an appreciation of every hit and
point made. The judge began his ad-
dress by stating his reasons for opposing
Giles, and did so in a manner apparently
satisfactory to himself and convincing to
his hearers. He showed himself to be
Z. badly ased man and Giles and his friends

He charged his opponent with nearly ev-
cry kind of offense dealt with in criminal
law except murder and bigamy He told
of the mighty work he had performed III
the senate during his term of Office and of
his high standing in that august body. He
promised when he went back there 10 do
even greater things than in the past, and
he wound up by prophesying that he
would be top dog on the 9th OF Novem-
Der.
His address was listened to with pa
thence, and he had a respectful hearing
from both Giles and the audience, al
though the former was smeared all over
with the mud slung by Glasscock.
The adage that Zone story is good till
another is told" was never better exem-
plified than it was last night.
When Captain Giles reared his aesthetic
form to begin his reply he was greeted
with a round Of applause, which proved he
was amongst friends. He at once set out

Vindication" in very creditable manner.
The question for debate was: Resolved,
That the United States Senators Should be
Elected by the Popular Vote" MIR. Rogers,
the first speaker, claimed that in demo
cratic form of government the people
should have all the power direct, and not
be heard through representatives. Mr..
Gano argued that the senate was a
medium of restraint upon the execu-
tive and the lower house, and
that its members should be elected by the
states.
The question was further debated by
Messrs. Austin, Lore and efferson, on
the affirmative, and Messrs. Bugbee, Sum

negative.

THE PEOPLES FORUM.
A. Visit to the Colored Deaf and
Dumb and Blind Institute.

Special Correspondence of The Statesman.
During one of my rambles yesterday it
was my good fortune to visit one of our
states institutions, notably-the Institute
for the Colored Deaf, Dumb and Blind
and to say that l was pleased with what l
saw there but feebly expresses what felt.
l was met at the door by Mrs. Holland,
wife of the superintendent, who is one of
the most pleasant and cultivated colored
ladies l have ever met, who invited me
into the parlor, which is Feat and we'll
furnished, and entertained me very
pleasantly, until the superintendent, who
was out experimenting the grounds and
Improvements, came il. After expressing
his pleasure at my visit he
took me i'll charge and showed
me through the different department, and
school rooms, which were all neat and in
good order, and students all seem to be
we'll satisfied, and making good progress
in their studies. The different classes are
presided overly teachers, who. although
they are all colored, seem to be we'll quail
fled for their positions and very much in
earnest in their work, After going through
these departments, was taken over to
the new building which is fast nearing
mpletion and when finished will be a
model of convenience ard an ornament to
that part of the country. IL is built of
brick and is three stories high, the lower
| story 70 be used as class rooms, the second
story for sleeping apartments, and the
third to be fitted up for chapel and for
library rooms, etc. The whole 10 be fin
ished III good and substantial manner. 1t
will be, when finished, a very substantial,
tasty structure, a model of convenience
and well suited for the purposes for
which it is intended, and will
reflect credit, alike upon the state, the
architect and the contractor. The super
intendent is very busy laying ont walks
and drives, and making other necessary
improvements about the grounds, but
took time to show me around, as above
stated, and seemed to be we'll pleased at
my visit; in fact, said he vas always glad
to have the citizens visit the institution
and see for themselves how it is conducted
Taken all together, 1 spent very pleas
ant hour, and was very courteously treated
by the superintendent and all whom
met, and, to use an old and rather hack
neyed phrase, think Mr.. Holland is the
right man in the right place.

Last night one of the most enthusiastio
political meetings of the campaign was

Messrs. W.Shelly, Thos. G.Sayers and Thos.

Cordial support of the democratic county
ticket was especially pledged. Another
