The reports from San Antonio
during the week have indicated that
the silly whites" were being backed
all over the political arena, but the
news reached here yesterday of their
triumph. They were little slow
in the skirmishirg, but came to the
front in the main battle and quietly
walked off with all the honors. The
State ticket in full as nominated
Friday is as follows: For governor
Webster Flanagan, of Henderson
county; for lieutenant governor, w.
K. Makemson, of Williamson; for
attorney general, j. T. Hogue, of
Ell Paso; for comptroller, William
Werthoff, of Dewitt county; for land
commissioner, James K. Mcdowell,
of Childress; for treasurer, John D.
Schmitz, of Denton; for State super
tendent of education, DR.. NJ. Lind
ner, of Bexar. Not a man on the
ticket has drop of negro blood in
his veins, but with the exception of
Flanagan they were all put there by
negro votes.

THE CROP PROSPECT.

Georgia figures its cotton crop at
81 per cent of an average one, or 3
per cent below that of last year, the
decline being due to drouth in some
sections and rain in others.
In Florida the crops are poor.
The cotton outlook is bad, and the
orange and lemon crops are much
below the average, and only SO as
compared with last seasons.
Louisiana crops are all promising.
The cotton acreage is increased, and
the condition Of the plant is better.
Cane shows an increase in acreage
of per cent, and in condition IA
per cent, promising 100000 hogs
heads or more, the best yield since
the war. Rice has suffered little
lately, but the acreage is II per cent
above last season, and the condition
as good as then. so that the yield
will be much larger. Corn is also
better than III 1889.
Cotton slightly fell off in Mississ
ippi during the last week of August
in consequence Of dry and occasion
ally cool weather. The crop pros
pects in consequence have declined
20 per cent, but in the Yazoo delta
the outlook is as goodas ever Corn
sugar cane, potatoes and other small
crops have improved and the pros
poets are excellent for a good yield.
North Carolina makes q more ia
vorable report of the cotton crop
than the other Atlantic States, and
declares the season unusually good,
placing the condition of the cotton
on the last day of August at 102 as
compared with II at the same time
last year. This is a big improve
ment, the largest reported in any
part of the South.
The corn crop is also a splendid
one. Tobacco is 95. as compared
with so last year, ''the Old North
State" looks for phenomenal yield
of both cotton and tobacco, and
counts on great agricultural pros
perity.
Tennessee also promises well. To-
bacco Will be a rather short crop,
corn fair, and hay one of the best
yields ever known. !
Summing up from these reports, |
which are official, and which them
selves are the summing up of the
reports of hundreds of counties in |
these States, the general outlook in
the South is for good crops.
In Alabama, Georgia and Florida
the cotton crop threatens to be less
than last yeal; in Mississippi and
Texas it will be about the same; in
Tennessee, North Carolina, Arkan-
sas and Louisiana it will be much
better. Taken altogether, it ought
to be larger than the phenomenal
crop we have just harvested, now
at 1881, 206 bales.
Corn seems to be doing excellent
Iy in all the states except Arkansas,
where it is reported in bad condition
and Tennessee where if is only fair.
The yield will, in consequence, be
much better than last year.
The sugar and rice crops will also
De larger, tobacco about the same;
he small crops generally better.
The only agricultural product in
which the South seems to have done
informally bad this year is fruit,
he premature spring having played
havoc with it.

Republicans Will Make Nominations In

George II. Heilbron, chairman of the Republi.

"xhile the committee has never been IN favor
