WASHINGTON, Oct., 6.-J. n. Fallon
of Houston, who has been here on a
political mission for the past few days +,
returns home tonight. In conversation
with your correspondent this evening
MIR. Fallon said: 1.-THE Republicans of
Texas will take q hand in the campaign
this year and l believe We will carry
the First and Seventh districts. In fact
| am certain we Will elect E. L. Angler
and possibly F. L. Spolm. II Collector
Quincy and Maj. De Gress of Austin will
keep their hands off and stop their inter-
ference we will show the Democrats
that Texas Republicans are
LIVELY FELLOWS.
l saw the president Saturday and stated
the situation to him. The president said
he would put a stop to Quincy Interfering
in state politics. Mr.. Harrison seemed
to understand the necessity for concerted
saction on the part of Texas Republicans,
as also did Chairman Belden of
the national executive commit
tee. The national committee will
give us some assistance, aud with our
state committee working night and day
you may expect a shaking up of politics
in the state. The theory of protection is
growing in Texas. and in the wool dis
trict you will find some
VERY ARDENT PROTECTIoNIsTs.
Another thing that is going to help US Is
Blaine's reciprocity scheme. Texas
will gain largely by it in commercial
point of view. For the first time in a
number of years the farmers are in the
saddle and they will prove source
of strength to our cause. If we can
down Collector Quincy, and 1 think we
can, you will see several Republican
representatives in the next congress.
Quincy wants the Republicans kept in the
minority for the purpose of
having the patronage to distribute,
but he is going to have his
wings clipped before very many months
pass over his head. Harrison will 90 to

THE OKLAHOMA CAPITAL QUESTION.
Special to the Gazette.
GUTHRIE, o. t., Oct. 6.-Quiet pre-
walls in the city over the complex capital
situation, and nobody pretends to know
the present status of affairs. Kingish
representatives and lobbyists are the only
people who wear q smile of content,
while scowls of dismay overspread the
countenaDces of the friends of
Oklahoma City. 1t seems that
under contract the Oklahoma City
crowd will have to support Kingfsher in
the event the governor vetoes the pres
ent bill. II the fultilment of the con-
tract becomes necessary, as it certainly
will, Oklahoma City will antagonize the
Santa Fe railway company to the extent
of q new town near there being sprung
into existence, and that the town
will be nothing but d whistl-
ing point, while Guthrie, after strong
efforts TO restain the capital as against
all opposition, will be pushed to the front
by that corporation as the leading town
of the territory.
Speaker Daniels is in Oklahoma City,
being wined and dined to his heart g con-
tent. This nervous prostration was an
apparent myth, and his absence from
the chair is plainly to shirk RESPONSE
billty.
