CITIZENS AGAIN.
To the Editors of the TRANSCRIPT:

10 the EQlLOrS Oh I0c 1HANSCh1FIs
In the Register of last week G. S. Hill
dahl takes exceptions to the article in the
TRANSCRIPT signed "Citizens. which he
represents as ''Citizen." and attributes
to me. As one Of the writer's of that ar
tlcle wish to say that Mr.. Hlldahl agreed
with me, as part of the consideration
for the large price which paid him, not
to 20 in the photograph business again in
Austin. He promised also to make out
q written agreement to that effect, but
kept putting it off from time to time, say
ing that it was useless as he should not
sell out if he wished to continue the bust
ness. He has considerable to say about
his right to 90 into legitimate business,
and compete for share of trade, his pay
ing taxes and spending money here etc.
Wher he has agreed not to 60 into the
photograph business here, and has been
paid good money for that agreement, he
may think he has perfect right to break
that agreement and 60 into the business,
but others think differently as he will
discover. AS some of the evidence he
called for. he may be interested in the
following letter from Mr.. Hanson, who
was at work ia the gallery and over heard
the conversation in regard to this matter.
E. II. AUSTIN.
I, the undersigned. heard the eonver-
sation between Mr.. Austin and Mr.. Hill
dahl in regard to the agreement that Hill
dahl was not to start in phOtOgraphing
again in the City of Austin, and if he had
he would not sell out, ETC., as he had 9th
er business in view, and his health would
not permit him working at it any longer.
JOHN HANSON.
As one of the ''Citizens" who wrote the
article in TRANSCRIPT last week allow me
to say that am satisfied of the truth of
the statements made therein and know
that they do not misrepresent Mr.. Hill
dahl. At the time of the trade it was
we'll understood that Mr.. Hildahl was not
I to go into photographing again in Austin.
G. A. POoI.ER.
I endorse the statement of Mr.. Pooler.

AN INDIANA SENSATION.
The Latest Democratic Dodge to Capture

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 3l.--The publica-
tion by the Sentinel (democratic) this
morning Of what purports to be fac sim
Ito OF type written letter sent out by w.
w. Dudley, treasurer Of the national re-
publican committee, giving instructions
regarding the election in Indiana, is the
political sensation here. Copies of the
alleged letter were furnished the corres-
pondents of democratic newspapers last
night There is great variety of opinion
as to their genuiness, and early in the day
Colonel Dudley wired the editor of the In
dianapolis News declaring the letter a
forgery, and threatening to prosecute any
paper publishing the same. Editor Moss,
oi the Sentinel, avows the genuiness of
the authorship and the signature of the
letter. Chairman Huston, of the republic
can committee, is out in card stating that
Gulonel Dudley has had nothing to
do with the management of the Indiana
campaign; that he (Huston) has not been
advising or corresponding with Dudley,
and knew nothing of any intention on the
latters part to address anybody in In.
diana; that in so far as the letter sugges-
ted the employment of improper or illegal
methods in connection with the coming
election, he utterly repudiates 1t. on be-
half of himself and the state central COM
r.attee. The suggestion is entirely con-
tgary to the plans and purposes of his COM
u,ittee. The letter bids fair to prove the
sensation Of the Indiana campaign. The
