Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Oct, 6.-J. n. Fallon
of Houston, who has been here on q
political mission for the past few days.
returns home tonight. In conversation
with your correspondent this evening
Mr.. Fallon said: ''The Republicans of
Texas Will take hand in the campaign
this year and l believe we will carry
the First and Seventh districts. In fact
l am certain we VIII elect E. L. Angler
and possibly F. L. Spolm. If 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
action 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, and with oar
state committee working night and day
you may expect 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 il in commercial
point of view. For the FIRST time in q
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 veral 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 go to
California in the spring to attend the
dedication of The Stanford university.
He will return via the Southern Pacific.
taking in Texas on his way home.
SHERMAN, TEX, Oct. 6.-Webster
Franagan addressed q large crowd in
the courthouse this afternoon, composed
of Republicans, some Democrats, and q
good sprinkling of colored patriots in
points made IN his address have already
been told through THE GAZETTE. He
was cordially received and entertained by
party adherents.
SrHE 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. Kingfsher
representatives aud lobbyists are the only
people who wear a smile of content,
while scowls of dismay overspread the
countenances 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. If the fulfilment of the con-
tract becomes necessary, as 1t certainly
will, Oklahoma City will antagonize the
Santa Fe railway company to the extent
of new town near there being sprung
into existence, and that the town
will be nothing but whistl-
ing point, while Guthrie, after strong
efforts to restRin 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
bilIty.

Special to the Gazette.
SHERMAN, Tex, Oct. 6.-R. V. Bell,
candidate for senator on the independent
ticket, is announced to speak in this city
tomorrow.
AFRAID TO GO TO GUTHRIE.
Special to the Gazette.
OKLAHOMA, o. T., Oct. 6.-Speaker
Daniels remained in the city all day,
fearing bodily harm if he went to Guth-
RE, as he had received numerous anony-
nous threats and communications.
CONVICTION, KY. ELECTION.
CINCINNATI, OHIO, Oct. 6.-The election
in Covington, KY, was conducted by a
ballet somewhat similar to the Australia
system. Hitherto the method of voting
has been viva vooa. The result is the
election of Mayor ]. T. Thomas (Repub-
lican) by majority of l46. The Repub-
licsns also elected city weigher, three of
five aldermen, five of ten councilmen,
and FIVE of ten members of the school
board. The Democrats elected an asses
sor. This Is the first Republican mayor
in twenty-five years. The Democratic
candidate for mayor will contest on the
ground that votes were improperly re-
jeoted for alleged informally.
