SENATOR KIMBRoUGu ON THE LATE CON-
vENTIoN.
Special to the Gazette.
DALLAS, TEX. Aug. 22.-The follow
ing interview with Senator Kimbrough
appeared III the Times Herald this even
ing. He said:
81 am not O constitutional lawyer,
and therefore don't spin fine like some
people. All good Democrats will vote
for the amendment for the simple reason
that the San Antonio convention, the
only authorized body to speak for the
Democracy OF Texas, plainly say they
favor the adoption of the amendment.
A collar Democrat always swallows all
the nominees as well as all of the plat
form.
''By nominating Mr.. Hogg, who made
the canvass for governor on the commits
sion idea. the convention simply showed
that they "favored'' him for governor
by reason of the fight he had made in
behalf of the amendment. Then the
amendment is the idea upon which Hogg
was nominated, and to be consistent
Democrats cannot vote for Hogg as the
nominee of that idea and vote against
the idea or principle itself. This seems
plain TO me.
'Some of the ants may kick, and are
kicking, but will, almost to a man,
march up to the rack and eat their fod-
der side by, side with the commission

the grub. At first he did we'll, but he
purposely grew careless and unclea ly
after few days. Nobody grumbled.
The others would eat and look at each
other. but not a murmur was heard-no-
body wanted 10 cook. Finally, in des-
peratiou, and Us a last resort, the cook
fixed up mess of stuff that he knew
would make some one grumble. He
wanted TO fish and hunt some himself.

some whole ears of corn. old bits of ven-

with pepper aud terribly salty. 1t was
served in big pans. All the crowd came
in hungry, of course, about l O'Clock
and went to eating, as usual. They
would eat and look at each other. One
fellow got his mouth full of salt and
hair. and in u fit of desperation said:
Boys, this Is pretty Id tough, amt

vass, almost from houss to house. The

ened by the denial of a prominent oitl-
zen of Grayson of the authority to ap-
