tinlore:
"If this magnificent demonstration
is to be accepted as an indica ton that
animates here he was interrupted by
loud and continued applause II was
about to say that if this splendid de-
monstration is to be accepted as an
indication of the spirit that animates
the democratic party of Baltimore, l
think it is safe to say that you are in
IIU uausvE Or aUrCoV nvEo.
81 came here this evening with very
great reluctance because really am
in no condition to address you, but l
am glad l came. / am glad to meet
this grand and intelligent audience
of Maryland Democrats, and to talk
to them for a very short time upon
some of the questions which they, in
common with all other people of this
country, are vitality interested.
see on my right, Unnecessary
taxation is Unjust Taxation, and on
my left, Reduce the taxation on the
Necessaries of Life These are the
battle cries of the Democratic party
in this great contest. And when the
people come to understand it, as they
will understand it, and feel the sig
nifcance of these notices, am not
the least afraid of what the result
will be, We will lave done with I'm.
necessary taxation.
You have been told by the gentle
man who has just preceded me that
no people can make themselves rich
by imposing taxation on themselves
1t has been forcibly and truthfully
said that q man had just az well I'm.
dertake to increase his wealth BY
picking his own pocket as to increase
it BY imposing taxes upon himself.
Grover Cleveland was inaugurated
on March 1, 1885, there was Q surplus
in the United States treasury of o lit.
tie over twenty-five millions of dol
lars, and there was outstanding o.
the public debt redeemable at the
option Of the government one hun
dred and ninety-six millions of dol
lars. On February l, 1887, this sur
plus had been reduced to the sum o
ninety-two millions of dollars, and
there yet remained outstanding con
siderable part Of the three per cent
bonds.
The last Of these bonds was called
by The Treasury Department on July
/, 1887, but yet there remained il
the treasury surplus money to thu
amount of about forty.six million dol
lars at the close Of that month, anC
it has been accumulsting at the rat,
of from nine to ten millions per month
from that time to the present. Their,

which the executive department o
the government could lawfully dea
with this surplus. One vas to use i
in the purchase Of the outstandin,

HOUSE.
WASHINGTON, June Mr.. Spinola, of
New York, renewed. his effort to
have passed senate bill to revive
the rank of general of the army, for the
benefit of Acknowledgement Sheridan,
but Mr.. Kilgore, of Texas, again objected.
M. Randall suggested that the bill
might be passed Monday under suspen-
sion of the rules, and it was laid over.
Mr.. Mills, of Texas, rising in his place,
asked in the name of confederate soldiers
living and dead, that the house consider
the Sheridan bill, but Mr.. Kilgore per
sisted in his objection.
Mr.. Spinola, of New York, again sought
to bring the Sheridan bill before the house,
by asking consent to report it back from
the committee on military affairs. Ut
had been referred to that committee after
the preceding failure)
Mr.. Kilgore was induced to withdraw
his objection so far as to allow the report
to be read, but Mr.. Oates, of Alabama,
promptly renewed it,
The republicans, desiring to favor the
immediate consideration of the Sheridan
bill, resorted to dilatory tactics, and
finally the objection gave way and the
bill was taken up and passed.
Mr.. Oates, of Alabama, went on record
as opposing the bill.

Bunders Committed by the Managers of

New YORK, June Those in charge of
the memorial day celebration, in this city,
seem to have been possessed with genius
for laundering. Mayor Hewitts absense
from the grand stand was noticed, and
now it transpires that he was not invited.
The fact that General Sherman's we'll
known face was not seen in any place of
prominence also excited comment, and
now we learn that he was not only not
invited but when he sent request for a
ticket to the exercises at the memorial at
the Metropolitan house in the evening, he
was curtlv informed all seats were sold.
As the press has represented the slight to
he general, he has published letter, in
(WHICH he makes a plain" statement of the
case. Closing he makes suggestion OF
interest to all.
He says "And now | address my com
rades of the Grand Army, which made
these civic ceremonies possible, as one of
themselves, not claiming any privileges
by reason of exalted rank and honors far
above my deserts-if it is not better that
We should devote Decoration day to the

dead, and the dedication of permanent
monuments in their honor, for the teach

The Horrible Crime for Whlct
Conrad Jackson is to Swing
at Waco.
The Shooting of John Talley, a
Popular Young Farmer,
While Flowing.


SoecIsl Telegram 10 the Statesman
Woo. lime 1.-Conrad Jackson was
sentenced to-day in the district court ol
McLenpan county to be hung on July Ito,
1885. for the killing Of John Ialley on
JrIv 16. 1887. Conrad Jackson was con-
victed of murder III the first degree ana
his nunishment assessed at death at tne
Oct6ber term of the district court, 1851.
His case was appealed to the court OF ap-
Meals and was affirmed by this court. The
crime of which jackson stands convicted
and sentenced is one of the most helnous'
cold-blooded and dastardly muir
ders that ever solled the
fair name of McLennan county,
and is speedily met with the summary
nnni,hment which it so richly deserves.
John Tally, the young man killed was one
of the rising young stockmen and farmers
of the county. Conrad Jackson was
colored farm hand working on the farm
of Mr.. Tally. On July 16, 1887, while
Tally was working in his field, Conrad
Jackson approached him and, it is pre-
sumed, asked for slight difference which
occurred in one of their former settle
mepts of accounts. The amount was 81.
Tally denied the amount and
turned his back to the negro,
Jackson, and continued to work
Jackson's cowardly nature Selling this
opportunity, pulled his deadly six-shooter
and shot Talley in the back of the head
causing instant death. Jackson then
mounted Talley's horse, which was hitched
to the plow, and rode about five miles
when he left the horse and stopped witt
negro in the Tehuaoana bottom for the
night By this time Talley's body was
discovered, and great hue and cry was
raised which surpassed anything OF thu
kind ever seen in this county. Officers
and citizens covered that part of thu
county. They came up on Jackson an(
he fled in the direction of Fairfield, bu
was caught the next day, after travelling
about forty miles on foot. he wa
brought back sometime afterward, as i
was found Judge Lynch couldn't await tn
laws delay, but would mete out the pun
ishment of death upon Jackson for tn
killing of one of MoLennan county's mos
prosperous and popular young men. 81
ends the heinous crime which shocked tn
entire county at the time of its commits
sion. There will have been one year bt
tween the commission of the CHINE an
the execution.

Plenty of Water and Grass, Fat Sheep
and sleek Cattle

Plenty of Water and Grass, Fat Sheep
and Sleek Cattle.
Special Telegram to the Statesman.
FORT WORTH, June 10. @. French,
representative of the commission house
of McIllhenny g. Co., returned yesterday
after a long and extensive trip through
the southwest portion of the state. de
corroborates the tales that have come up
out of that country of abundance OF
water and grass and fat and frisky cattle.
There will be large number of fine
looking beeves shipped out from those
parts, he says, in the near future, though
they are not yet in good enough
shape to go on the market. The re-
cent drop in mutton in the northern
markets has a dampening effect on the
sheepmen out west. Said Mr.. French:
"The cause of decline was more than suf-
ficient receipts of inferior stocks" but
he ibid not think the depression would
continue long, as regarded fat muttons,
the prices for which had not been brought
down through any weakness in the mar
ket for them, but through the demoraliza-
ton which always accompanied drop in
the market for particular animal
N. j. French advises those whose
sheep are not good and fat to keep them
at home, where they are worth far more
than they are to the feeders up north at
the prices now ruling. The Texas Land
and Cattle company proposed to move
from $4,000 to 10000 head of cattle this
year from their southern Texas ranch,
near Corpus Christi, to their ranch in the
Panhandle. They have made one ship
ment of forty carloads.

Ex-Governor Ireland has, by the citizens

which tender he has replied as follows:
"SEGUIN, May %, 1888.
ITO Thos II. Stone and others:
Gentlemen-I have your note of the

1 appreciate very highly the compliment
thus paid me, and if supposed for a
moment that there we're not others who
can serve you in that capacity with ability
and fidelity, and that there was apublic
duty devolved upon me, 1 would not
hesitate to comply with your wishes. 1
have given much of my life to the public,
and would willingly give the balance, if
necessary; but in this instance cannot
think it necessary, and must therefore
respectfully decline your request.
Thanking you kindly for the apprecia-

this note, am very truly,
