NON-PARTISANS ?
Bexar's Delegation that Is Intended
to Select a State Ticket.


AS the election approaches we
naturally expect to hear of public
meetings, nominally of an independ,
ent character for the benefit of the
poor working man, but really for the
election of some fellow to the office
that he aspires to. The meeting OF
Saturday night may not have been OF
this character but some political trick
sters took big hand in it and led to
that suspicion. The city administra-
| ton strikers were there too in good
force.
Mr.. J. f. Fitzgerald was elected
chairman, and explained that the
meeting was called to elect thirteen
delegates from BeXar county to the
non-partisan state convention of
farmers stock-raisers and laboring
men which is to meet in
Fort Worth on July Cd to nominate
state officers and the following dele
gates were elected: w. p. Linthicum,
Joseph Mars, J. NJ. Lillard, Theo.
Kunzman, Charles Baker, T. II. Banks,
Charles Werner, Alvin Seidel, j. p.
O'Leary, George Marks and Otto
Solms.
The following resolutions were then
introduced and passed:
"Whereas, For the last twenty years
under the rule of the dominant parties
the condition of the producing masses
continues to grow worse and worse,
the result of class legislation and of
gross violations of the principles of
universal justice upon which our gov
eminent is founded; and
Whereas, The tendencies are tow
ard the establishment of a mOnied
aritocracy on the one hand, while the
wealth-producing masses are reduced
to condition worse than serfdom;
and
Whereas, We desire to live under
a truly republican form government,
a government by the people, of the
people and for hepeOple. Now, there
fore, be it
Resolved, That we, the farmers,
stock raisers and labOring men of
Bexar county, in mass meeting assem-
bled, declare that we sever all allegi-
ance to said parties.
"Resolved further, That we hearth
ly endorse the platform adopted by
the Waco convention, June Is, 1855"
And the meeting adjourned.

Just Hear That Child soreamI"

"Just Hear That Child Scream!"
said Mrs. Smith to her sister, Mrs.
Davis, as the sound of a child's
shrieks came across the garden from
a neighbours house. "What kind of
woman have you for a neighbor?
Does she abuse her children" mo,
indeed" replied Mrs. Davis. "She is
one of the most tender mothers in ex-
istence. But you see, she belives in
the old-fashioned style of doctoring.
When child needs physic, she fills
spoon with some nauseous dose,
lays the little victim fiat on her lap,
holds his nose till he is forced to open
his mouth for breath, when down
goes the dreadful mess. Then come
the yells." "No wonder" said Mrs.
Smith, "Why doesn't she use DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets?
They are effective without being
harsh, and are as easy to take as
sugar plums. L always give them to
my children" "And so do l." said
Mrs. Davis.
