DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
Our German Neighbor Thinks We
Have an Excellent Ticket.

Our German Neighbor Thinks We
Have an Excellent Ticket.
Translated from Texas Vorwarts.
By authority of the democratic county
executive committee We publish to-day
the complete list of candidates for county
offices, nominated by the last democratic
county convention.
The "Texas Vorwarts, not being a par
tisan paper, although it deals with all i'm
portant political questions from an indie
pendent and non-partisan standpoint,
has therefore no opposition to offer
against the democratic ticket, and will not
indulge in any. The ticket, as whole, is
a strong one, aud it will not be a light
undertaking for any organized opposition
to defeat it. Since the last twenty years
no party in Travis county has ever sue
ceeded to elect all its candidates upon the
party ticket, although this county, strictly
considered, may be designated as demo-
cratic county.
In Travis aud in many other counties
there are a considerable number of voters
who believe that national or state plat To-
forms of any political party are of
blessed little consequence in the admins
tratlOn OF county ONCE.
What difference can it finally make
whether murderer's neck is broken by
means of a democratic rope, through a
democratic sheriff, or the murderer's soul
be sent into eternity by means of a re-
publican moose, adjusted by q republican
sheriff?
The main object to be attained, will, in
all cases, be the faithful execution of the
aw.
1t will be all the same thing, as well to
the condemned criminal as to the COM
monwealth, what views the sheriff, in
executing the sentence, may then and
there entertain about protective tariff, the
reduction of the surplus in the national
treasury, civil service reform, or deep
water at the gulf coast, and, should the
county ever be so unfortunate that her
treasurer would run away taking
the public funds with him, it would be all
the same, whether the fugitive be demo-
crat or republican, the money would be
gone, and that is the main object in such
case.
There are other main questions besides
to be considered in the election of county
officer. Qualification, private character,
persoudl lhhuouoo, PoPulaliuy anu ouh0l
attributes of each candidate, are taken
into consideration by great many voters,
independent of the political views they
may entertain, which are altogether indie
pendent of the administration of county
office. And, from this standpoint con-
sidered, it cannot be denied that the dem
ocratic ticket of Travis county, taking it
as whole, presents the names of we'll
qualified, competent and strong candi-
dates

POLITICAL GOSSIP.
Effort Being Made to Bring Out
Mr.. Frank Hamilton.
In Which Case Hon. Geo. Glass
cock is to Withdraw-Llve
Political Notes.

1t was the talk yesterday in certain
circles that strong effort is being made
to induce Mr.. Frank Hamilton to run for
the state senate.
IL was understood that if he would con-
sent Hon. George Glasscock will not
make the race.
1t was also reported yesterday that
Major Joe Stewart would possibly make
district attorney.
Mr.. Robinson, however, is not alarmed,
and it is safe TO say he will receive a
larger majority than he did last year.
The nomination of Judge Keys for the
district judgship is highly spoken of by
those who know him WELL They assert
he will make as able and just a judge as
either Judge Walker or Townes.
The democratic candidates for the leg
islature are gaining strength daily, and
they will receive big majorities.
Judge Burts, from indications just now,
is going to get big maiority,as will John
Kelly and Mat johnson.
There are lots of folks who figure out
less than 600 votes for Judge Sheeks.
Late Monday evening Hon. George
Glasscock told STATESMAN reporter that
he intended to make the race, aud at that
time he evidently knew nothing of his
throwing up the sponge in favor of Mr..
Frank Hamilton or anybody else.
Rube Caperton is having a pleasant.
little walkover for the position OF animal

Everything is bright for the entire
county ticket, and, If all signs do not fail,
everyone on it will receive handsome
majorities. They are certain to il every
democrat will work Rs he ought to.

POINTING TO ZION.
The Tent Meeting Services Last
Night.
Sowing Good Seed by the Way
side-A Large and Inter
esrlng Meeting Last
Evening.

Sunday night the first meeting of the
open air series was held in the
big gospel tent located on the
public square near the old court house in
the First ward.
The preachers had discovered that the
immortal First would not come to them
and so they went down to it, and the
meeting Sunday night must have con-
WINGED them that their action was wise, for
they had large congregation.
OF course there were many we'll
known church people on the
ground. Indeed, they made up
a very large majority of the hearers, but
under the tent and on the grounds there
were many whom it is safe to say had not
heard sermon or enjoyed church music
and sacred songs for many a day.
Short but telling sermons were delivered
Sunday night by Rev. W. W. Pinson and
Rev. L. o. McIntire, and both gentlemen
were given an attentive hearing.
LAST NIGHT.
The services were held again last night
and the attendance, it is safe
to say was double what it was the night
before, and there was the same attention
and orderly behavior.
Rev. Mr.. Pinson preached a very power
full sermon, calling upon the people to
repent. He said: "All that God wants is
for you to repent, to turn your faces to
Him and turn back from your sins. Every
man aud woman should turn
to God and repent. He will
hear and answer your prayers. 1 ask you
to think of this and come and make
heaven glad by an honest repentance and
turning away from all your sins"
The music AVID songs were very fine
last night, and they added interest to the
services.
Tonight Rev. Mr.. McIntire will preach
The tent is very comfortable-much
more so than the churches these warm
nights. There are plenty of seats, and all
are invited to go down tonight.

Interstate Deep Harbor Conven

From the Denver Chamber OF Commerce, Board
of Trade and Colorado Real Estate Exchange.
DENVER, COL, August 8, 1883.
Dear SRA great business convention
of delegates from the states and territories
west of the Mississippi river has been
called by the governor of Colorado to
meet at Denver, August %, 1888. Your
attention is respectfully invited to the
call published herewith; also to the fol-
lowing:
The purpose of the convention is to in-
terest all that country west of the Missis
sippi in the establishment of a deep water
pert or ports on the Texas coast that shall
give the commerce of this great territory
an outlet to the markets of the world by
the shortest most direct and cheapest
route. 1t will be the most important
commercial convention ever held in the
great west, and of vital interest to every
farmer, miner, property owner aud bust
ness mad of two-thirds of the territory of
the United States.
CHEAP TRANSPORTATION
From and to all eastern markets, as well
as direct communication With the markets
of Europe and Central and South nerica,
is demanded by our growing population
and increasing products of the farm, chop
and mine.
The only difficulty at present is the fact
that while the seattle great economic
pathway of commerce that the west wants
to reach-is SO near, yet deep draught
vessels cannot get close enough in shore
to take away the products that the country
wants to ship. The object, then, of this
interstate deep harbOr convention is to
interest and unite the people of the west
in the effort to secure a deep water port
that shall admit our imports and take
away our products at the lowest possible
cost. With deep harbor on the Texas
coast fully 80 per cent in freightage will
be saved, amounting to millions of dollars
annually on the products of the soil, the
output of mines and our incoming mer'
chandise.
The subject of storage reservoirs for re-
claiming by irrigation millions of acres oil
public lands now valueless, and other com
mercial topics, will he presented for YOU
deliberation.
; You are cordially invited and earnestly
requested to send a full delegation

Ii dSJ Ie1SAU.
There was another large congregation
down in the gospel tent last night, and it
was noticed there were many more people
there of the kind the preachers are seek
ing than there were the night before.
DR.. McIntire preached forcible and
logical sermon, warning men "if they are
down in the depths of sin and despair
that there is hope fof them; God is willing
to save and will go down into the very
depths t. do it. He never fails to save.
He is just as anxious to save the wicked
est as he is the best man in the city.
Confess Jesus as your master and believe
that God raised him from the dead aud
you will be saved"

a solo, "The Wondrous Love of God" by
Rev. Mr.. Pinson. the singing of which
was excellent.
There will be services again to night,
