correspondence of the Gazette.
CORsICANA, TEX, Jan. II The fol-
lowing appeared in to-dsy's Journal, and
is the subject Of much comment. The
editor SAID to your reporter that he knew
nothing about who prepared it, but that
il was handed to him for publication by
Rey-Mr. Mullins, who was candidate q
yssA ago for Lieutenant Governor on
third party Prohibition ticket.
PRoHIBITIoNIsTs RALLY.
The Prohioi ionists of Navarro county
are hereby requested to meet at their
respective precincts or voting places at
IS early dsy as practicable to organize
for the coming campaign. When two or
three or more can come together and
form clubs, let them do so. 1t is desira-
BILE that every precinct in the county Or
gsnize at once and be ready to send dele
gates to county convention to be held
last Of March or first Of April.
The county convention will sppoint del
egates to the state and district conven-
tions to be held the latter part OF April or
MAY; also nominate a county ticket for
the election in November. The state con-
yention will appoint delegates to the
national convention, to be held in Indian
spolis on the 9Th day of June. Let every
man who expects to vote the prohibition
ticket in November next attend these pre-
cinct meetings and select men
for the county convention. Let
20 one wait for some one
else to move In the matter. Every friend
OF prohibition i. e., every enemy OF the
liquor traffic is especially called on to
talk the matter up, rally the forces and
act immediately. There Is no time to
lose. There is much to do, and but little
enough time to do it. It is suggested
that March 81 be appointed as the day fol-
the precinct conventions. The day ioI
the county convention Will be fixed In the
near future.
By authority of the Elk. Com.

on Sunday evening the 22d inst, occurred
serious shooting scrspe as follows: 1t

deputy United States marshal. Ridge
DeReed has a brother here under an as
sumed name of Jim Mcknight, as he is

grudge between Cummings and the De-
Reed brothers because Cummings knows

dance and wedding at Tom Fletcher's
house when DeReed began promiscuous
shooting. Cummings tried to quiet De-
Reed wnen the latter began shooting q,

FORT WORTH. TEX. Jan. %. 1888.
Open order trade has been good with
wholesalers to-day, but as rule they
have not been very busy; indeed, as one
gentleman expressed 1t, they would be
surprised if they did have rush just
now. The drug dealers probably did the
largest busin ess.
Retail trade has been fsir.
Produce Is still quite scarce and conse-
quently stiff.
The Cotton World of last week says
The prices Of the principal articles Of
merchandise have undergone some
changes. The feature OF the week has
been the excitement in petroleum, which
fiuctuated widely and developed panicy
feeling, prices declining considerably.
Breadstu1s have been tame and have at
tracted but little interest either at home
or abroad. Heavy shipments Of -four
have stocked foreign markets and de-
creased the demand for wheat. Provisions
have been unsettled and easy, with little
export demand. Cotton has been in good
demand, IS shown elsewhere in this issue.
Staple groceries have been moderately &C.
tive The demand for refined sugar Is fairly
maintained, falling Of In the shipments
of Louisiana products increasing the re-
quirements Of eastern refined, but raw
sugar has ruled dull, IS re6ners having
supplied their current requirements are
disposed TO let the market take care OF
itself. The statistical position ofsupplies,
however, is as strong, il not stronger
than 1t was, and the yield OF the European
beet crop Is likely to fell short of recent
estimates. There is still weak under
tone to the coffee market, and although
spot supplies are comparatively light and
are being steadily absorbed by consump
ton, prices continue to dec Inc. The
significant fact is that the weakness
comes from Rio, and is probably due tc
the discountipg Of the next crop and the
prospects Of a larger yield from the
present crop than has been estimated
Rice has become very active and has ad
vanced SHARPLY.
