For THE RECORD.

For THE RECORD.
Some correspondent from Lambertville
TO the Temperance Gazette, of Camden,
sent communication containing the fol-
lowing clipping:
The Prohibitionists made the mistake Of
not nominating strong Prohibition ticket
Our citizens nominee was open TO criti-
cism of being boiler from the Republi.
can caucus, which / am satisfied lost the
ticket many votes, and perhaps the com
missioner. P.
The following is the vote for the City
Excise Commissioners
Abram e. Smith, r., 303
VIM. II. Bowers, D., 938
VIM. q. Reagan, p, $50
The vote at the Republican caucus at
which the ticket was made, was within 8
votes Of putting Reagan on the regular
Republican ticket. / believe that had his
name been placed there, he would have
been elected; this would have made the
commission a no license body. But while
the rum interest was active in getting their
man in nomination, the temperance men
held aloof and permitted the matter TO go
by default.
Now, il half dozen of our citizens who
wished to make ticket whose influence
would be for the good order of society
and the protection OF our homes, had been
in attendance and done their duty, there
would have been no need for third party
nomination. The mistake was, and is so
10 almost all instances, that there is not
enough interest taken by the best portion
of our citizens in our primary meetings,
leaving the presentation of candidates to
the ward politicians or those who are
working for their own selfish interests, or
the acquisition of some of the little offices,
which in many cases they are iucompe-
tent to I'll.
If citizens would give their serious al
tention in the beginning of political con-
test, there would be no need for third
party, especially in a municipal election.
The fact is, third party IN most cases,
defeats the objectfsr which 1t was formed.

Two-day Excursion Tickets to Phi1adel-
phia via Pennsyivania Isaiiroad.
For some time past the residents of this
section have enjoyed the privilege accord
ed them by the Pennsylvania Railroad of
buying two-day excursion tickets TO Phil
adelphis and other stations on the COM
pauy's lines. These tickets are sold at a
much lower rate than the regular thirty
day ticket, and are valid for two days, in
Guiding date of sale, or when sold on Sat-
urday are good until and including the

great convenience to those desiring TO
make short trips, and the Pennsylvania

credit for introducing the reform.

DALLAS, TEX, Oct. 1.-The Dallas
Republican club held meeting at the
city hall last night with Col. A. J. Hous-
ton in the chair. The adoption of a con-
stitution and bylaws was the main fea-
ture of ths evening. The committee in
their report asked that three negative
votes blackball an applicant for member
ship, but after much debate it was de-
cided that a two third vote in favor of
any candidate for admission would be
sufficient to elect him to membership
Col. Bigger during the evening stated
that the club was no Lily White party;
that Dallas was a Republican city, and
that the club did not want to antagonize
the negro. The following gentlemen
were elected as an executive com mittee:

SPECULATIVE
Renewed Activity is Noted in Silver
Bullion Speculation.
Foreign Money Situation - Shipping Rates
We're Points of Consideration-Im-
portant Net Changes.

Special to the Gazette.
NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-Silver rose per
cent. on the news that the government
would resume purchases. Louisville ad-
vanced on covering, and Missouri Pacific
on supposed GOLD orders. Union Pacific
was advanced, but declined / = per cent.
on scarcely any business. Northern Pa
cltio preferred rose on further inside buy
ing. Sugar was active, without much
change in prices.
Speculation in silver bullion sprang
into renewed activity yesterday. This
activity was continued to-day, the price
advancing rapidly on large purchases.
The price in the first hour this morning
was just per cent. higher than it was at
the same time yesterday. The foreign
money situation was au interesting fea-
ture of the financial world. This morn
ing money In London was quoted ut 41@
51a. 1t is regarded as quite probable
that the bank of England Will advance
its discount rate tomorrow. Sterling
exchange rates at this center are ad-
vancing rapidly, especially demand
rates. A further advance of 15c in both
posted and actual rates for demand was
recorded this morning by leading ex-
change houses.
The stock market was strong and the
sentiment was more favorable than it has
been for some time.
Some persons were inclined to think
that the recent bad railroad reports had
cleared the air, SO to speak. Certainly
there is good reason for believing that
the condition of the roads generally at
the present time is better than it was in
August, the month which the reports
cover. Many rates have been advanced
since then, and the roads have been doing
a big business to partially counteract
this. The interstate commerce commits
sioners reduced the rates on grain be-
tween the Missouri river and Chicago,
which were put into effect by the Rock
Island and Alton this morning. The in
stinct of elt-preservation will probably
compel rival lines to follow suit. 1t is
stated that rates west of the Missouri
will be reduced on October Is. Sugar
trusts strength was mauipulative, aud
could not be said to have any connection
with the passage of the tariff bill. Louis
N astSxtlt s. rise was due to

Is Warrant Necessary Before an Escaped
Convict May be Arrested.
Special to the Gazette.
DECATUR, TEX, Oct. Judge Pat
terson tried John Sherwood on habeas
corpus to-day and granted him bail in
the sum of $4,000. He is charged with
assisting the Campbell brothers in the
murder of J NJ. Coglin. Sherwood 8
attorneys insisted that as the officers
who were trying to arrest him and the
Campbells had no warrant, the attempted
arrest was unlawful and they had right
to resist and defend themselves and con-
sequently were justifiable in shooting
Coglin. Bob Campbell was an escaped
convict and the officers und erstood they
were entitled to arrest him without war
rant, and it was known to the officers
SHAT these parties had been carrying
pistols mud could be arrested for that.
The case will 20 to the court of appeals,
whose decision will he or great import
ance to the peace officers of Texas, as it
has not been the custom to ask for any
further authority to arrest an escaped
cvnvict than to receive notice of his
escape from the superintendent of the
paaaSeHtiary.
