DEAD LOCK AT GUTHRIE.
Special to the Gazette.
GUTHRIE, o. T., Aug. est now
looks as though dead lock would con-
front the houee. Flllbustering seems TO
be the order in the two bodies and from
present indications it will be continued
indefinitely. The Democrats and peo-
ple's men claim the balance of power
and say that if they can secure quorum
Tomorrow they will organize both
houses. Only seven members in the
house replied to roll call this morning
and unless the speaker appoints q sar-
geant-at-arms to bring in the absentees
it is doubtful whether the same will not
be the case Tomorrow. Both parties are
determined and swear they will not yield.

AN APPEAL FOR THE WASTE BASKET.
Special to the Gazette.
Houston, TEX. Aug. 2s.-The Re-
publicans in this district are an ex-
tremely unhappy family. They are torn
to pieces, and examination and recrimi-
nation is the order Of the hour. For
senator they will not put forth any can
dldare. But for county officers they are
unsettled, and say after the San
Antonio convention they will show
their hand. Already there are
at least hundred contesting dele
cations, aud hades will be
raised in Tamaleville. To-day the
white adjunct of the black Re-
publican party In this CITY held
a meeting and resolved. After
denouncing the negro for everything IN
holy they took up the Hon. Wright
Quincy. He is the leader of the party in
Texas and the pet of Harrison 8 admins
tration, being collector of customs at
Galveston, the latest Federal job in
the state. The resolutions which are to
be forwarded to the president accuse
Quincy of offensive partisanship and de-
mand his immediate removal. However
as the white Republicans are only swing
ing on to the tail of the black kite 1t is to
be supposed the appeal will go the way
of communications written Oh both sides
of the paper.
