Frank Davis is splendid worker at the

T. X. McCloug was in town on Monday
night. Wonder if this had anything to do
with the GA majority.
The respectable element in Woodstown
is not electing men TO the Mayors chair
who declare that ''all the churches should
be burnt and the preachers in hell"
The following is the total number of
votes polled in the borough in former
elections: 1885. 295; 1886, 327; 1887 -;
1888. 3ls; 1899 3al; 1890, 3i5.
1t looks as though thu people, at least
the better element of Them, had about
come to the eo-elusion to govern this tow n
IN a way and in manner best suited to
its -elfare and prosperity.
Charles II. Richman not only received a
great compliment in his handsome ma
iority for Mayor but also commanded the
support Of all the voters in his fourth term
as assessor, something unknown in the
history of the township.
Mayor Richman was aided at the polls
on Tuesday by a re representative gathering
of the best element in town. They left
their business to further the boTOugh's in
terests. and deserve credit for their work.
II was no easy fight they won.
1t is rumored that there was money
galore hereabout on election day. We
heard of one man. a colored one a. that,
who was Offered $50 il he would come ont
and work for the ticket which was so
badly snowe ed under, aud after all we don't
get McClong's system of water works.
Isn't it provoking.

convicts and non residents, used rum aud
money when needed, and their workers at

A Glorious Victory in the Borough
Riclsmau.s Majority 81

Woodstown's 5 Borough election on Tues
day was probably the most interesting and
strongly contested of any ever held here,
the fight being waged over the Office of
Mayor, for which Charles H. Rehman
tie present ineum bent, received the caucus
nomination. John Holmes, who was Ma
ycr several years, and who was defeated
III 1888 by majority of 13, ran independ-
ent, but Mayor Richmans conscientious
and busiuess-ike administration of the
Office was upheld by the handsome N ajor-
ity of 64, a majority well-earned against
all the tricks and maehiuations OF a ring
that would like to as,ain obtain control of
the municipal machinery.
THE RESULT IN THE BOROUGH.
In thu Borough on Tuesday, Charles Il.
Richman was reelected Mayor, and Frank
Davis aud John G. n enst sal Couneilmen for
three years, the vote being as follows:
For Mayor. Charles ii Richman 206 votes;

The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1891-05-28

COMBINATIONS of various kinds
have been sprung in hopes of pushing
Cleveland aside from the Democratic
preference, but hitherto without avail.
MIR. Cleveland will, however, doubtless
retire OF his own free will when he
reads the following from the Waco
Day: 1.-THE AUSTIN STATESMAN says.
Cleveland made a little friendly WISH
to Buffalo the other day and while
there made a little friendly talk to a
gathering of friends. That's all he did
and the country has been wild about
it ever since Which shows the diner
ence in communities. OF course when
THE STATESMAN says the entire
country has been wild it means Aus
tin. Well, since the legislature ad
iourned it has doubtless been very dull
in the Capital city, and anything out
of the ordinary creates excitement
Up here the speeches of Mr.. Cleveland
didn't create ripple. Nobody spoke
of them except to say that his literary
bureau seemed to have sinch on the
Associated Press"
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1891-05-28
THE THIRD PARTY HUMBUG.

If there ever was q political fraud
attempted in this country, it is the
third party. Founded not on princi-
ples-because the Democratic party
already covers its position on the tariff,
on free coinage, and currency coDtrac-
tion-the new party is based on two
ideas. First-Hunger and thirst for
Office and the spoils. Second-If these
can't be obtained, then to break down
the Democracy and play into the
hands of the Republican party.
The first of these assertions needs no
argument, for we all know of what
material the ward politician is COM
posed. and of this class the Cincinnati
junta seems to have been composed.
As to the second charge, nothing is
more easily proven. Those who have
watched the movement know that it
originated with men who had been
prominent Republicans, nor have they
yet severed their connection with that
party. If there were any distinguished
men in the convention at all, if their
antecedents are investigated they will
be found to be Republicans; or, at
least, ti-Democrats. But the lead
ers were men willing to be anything to
obtain Office.
If they can't they want their friends
the Republicans, to go in.
The duty Of the South is to stan(
severely aloof from movement which
with the men at it's head and the sub
treasury idiocy tackled to it, even
successful would bode no good to on
section. If the Alliance in the South
ern states should support such fac
ton it will be suicide and the practica
betrayal of the South. 1t would be
blow at the Demo racy. That is thu
only party on which the South car
rely, its only hope of escape from the
dangers of Capitalization, and the ex,
cesses of power of which we had {
forcible example in the last congress
To that party let the farmers of thu
South remain faithful. 1t has fought
for their interests for the last quarter
of a century. To abandon it now to fol
low gang of political mountebanks
frauds and adventures would be thu
hight of perfidy, ingratitude and ;
foolish sacrifice of their own interests

STATE OF THE CHURCH.

The committee on the state of the

Great Bishop and Shepherd, condi-
ment in our diocese promising the full
fiIlment of fruit of our labors and our
prayers.
The unfagging fidelity of our bishop
in spite OF gathered years, aud oft in
firmlties, the aggressive spirit of our
ministerial staff in all parishes and
missions, the renewed and increasing
conservation of our laity, men and
women, augur well for the present
and the future of the church.
Few things have been more in

by liberality the members OF the
council, with lofty faith in the great
head of the church, ordered the doub-

calmly determined effort to meet the
financial requirements this assist
ance calls for. The initial genius
ii this movement is the prophecy di
rect of the contamination wished. An
assistant bishop coming now into the

long and patient fidelity Of our pres
ent diocesan will prove a missionary
agency under God sending grace anC
power worthy of our cause and re
bounding to the great and endless
comfort of our people. In advance
your committee will speak a word
bidding hail and welcome to one who
will come to us in the name of the
Lord.
