boiling, | contend that where Demo-
cratic primaries are overrun by enemies
of the party, Democrats should appeal
by sending up contesting delegations.
Am l wrong? Shall Democrats submit
TO such au imposition and defeat OF their
party? If so we had as well surrender
to the Republicans. Is it crime and
shall one be denounced as bolter for
refusing to surrender his party TO its enc
mics? VIII the executive committee or
its chairman say surrender or appeal?
That is the question thar is being dis
cussed in some localities, and L think
Democrats will not surrender and Will not
be whipped into submission by being
charged with intending to 'bolt' by
chairman or anybody else. -

DALLAS, TEN. juno 26.-The Times
Herald of this evening contains the fol-
lowing:
Attorney General Hogg is in the city
to-day recupershng. The Times Her
aid man called on Mr.. Hogg and asked
him if he had anything to say in refer
ence to the ISLANDERS of the capitol syndi-
cate and the IinsinuatiOn of their attorney
Mr.. MatlOck. Gen. Hogg said he would
not at present dignity the ISLANDERS any
more than to say: 1.-The iutimatIon
by Matlock that ever acted dishonora-
bic or dishonesty, or ever attempted
blackmaIl in MY life is false. If he or
others know of anything that reflects
upon my official or personal integrity
they owe it to me and above all to the

if true, that Texas may be spared the
humiliation of instructinS her delegates

man for governor. -

Correspondence of the Gazette.
TEHUACANA, Ten, June 24.-Last
night Capt. w. II. Richardson and Hon.
R. +. Steele, candidates for state SEN
ator, spoke here in favor of the COM
mission. Both gentlemen are confident
of success in the race. Geo. A. Bell,
Fairfield, candidate for district attorney,
spoke also.
The indications are that the commits
sion men are the favorites and that
Hogg and the commission will have q
walk over.
At the joint discussion between Hogg
and Cook a few days ago in MeXia, they
say that Cook was not fairly treated by
the large audience. All the preference

under q cold collar.

THE SITUATION AT LONE OAK.
LONE OAK, Hunt COUNTY, Tex, June Is. |
To the Gazette.
l noticed in yesterday 8 GAZETTE let |
ter from this place written by F. W. |
in which he said there were only |
three anti Hogg men in this precinct,
and that l was one of them. He said |
that 1 was young and green. 1f-it is a
crime to be young plead guilty TO the !
And if a man who opposes |
Hogg is green, l also plead guilty to |
that charge. Mr.. Massey reminds me of |
the Union Laborites in Wood county two |
years ago. They called me green be- |
cause 1 did not support Marion Martin |
and Bill Farmer, in which there were |
l50, 900 people just as green as l was. |
Now they call me green because l do not |
support Hogg. If the different isms are !
excluded from the primary at this place, |
Hogg will be in the minority, otherwise |
in the majority. 1t is IN undisputable |
fact that every thing that bolted from |
the Democratic party two years ago Is
fer Hogg, and they were the ones Mr.. |
Massey was Intervening. Between the |
Democrats the vote is nearly equally di- |
vided. 1 don't know what the Hogg |
men will resort to next. When they |
fail 20 carry point they begin to Willy. |
Mr.. Massey made similar statement to |
the Dallas News as was made in your |
paper of the oath, and he now acknowI-
edges that it was false statement.
