Volume TX.

yesterday Vol. TX Of the Daily
TeXarkana Democrat began.
For eight years this paper has come
out regularly, giving the local happen
ings and such general news as was
calculated to interest its readers. 1t
has done much toward aiding in the
upbuilding and prosperity of the city.
During this time Texarkana has grown
from small village Of two or three
thousand people, to a city of $4,000
inhabitants.
Now a word as to the future of the
paper. We hope to furnish the peo-
pie here with live, frst-class daily.
1t will take some time to do this, and
will require much labor and expense
on our part. Again, we cannot do
this, unless the people of Texarkana
want such paper, and are willing to
patronize it sufficiently to justify
us in our hard task. We earnestly ask
the business men to consider well
this matter, and the importance and
benefit to accrue to the city through
live paper. We ask no donations,
and will give value received for all
patronage.

Debt, Dirt and the Devil.

TO keep debt, dirt and the devil
out of my cottage has been my great
est wish since set up housekeeping.
Surely these form trinity of evils
that should be carefully guarded
against. A man who is in debt is u
slave, toiling to meet the demands of
another. lie cannot call what he pos
sesses his own. He had better have
great deal less, and owe no man
anything according to the apostolic
injunction than to have large posses
sions which in whole or in part belong
to another.
A man in debt is like a man over
board with great weight about his
neck with witch by great exertion he
may reach the shore, but which never
theless may sink him at any moment.
But whatever excuse may be made for
men going in debt, surely none can be
offered for living in dirt. Soap and
water are cheap, and brushes and
brooms are not very expensive

Sample Copies.
patronage

We are now printing quite number
of sample copies of the DEMOCRAT for
free distribution among the merchants
and business men Of Texarkana.
Look the paper over and see how you
like it, and then subrcribe for and
advertise in it.
We desire to impress upon our bus
mess men the fact that it is our pur-
pose to give them an attractive, live
and newsy daily paper, but we can not
do this without their aid and encour-
agement. Already much expense has
been incurred in buying new type,
etc, and the paper shows marked i'm
frovement; paper has already received
many handsome compliments from
best citizens. We shall keep on inn
proving the paper.
In a few days we shall try to get
around to see the business men of
the city, on both sides, and we trust
to receive liberal patronage, in the
way of new subscribers and advertis-
ing. Again we say read the papers
we send out, and then be prepared to
encourage our efforts in behalf Of
Texarkana, when we call ON you.

W. J. Seaman Worse.

New YORK, August 9.-W. j. Scan
Ian, the comedian who was commit
ted to the insane asylum several
months ago, is growing worse, and
will soon be in the last stages of pare
sis although he has apparently i'm
proved physically in health and gained
flesh, but his mind is steadily giving
away. Manager August Piton is not
in the city, but it was said yesterday
by one Of Piton's agents that all hope
of Mr.. Scanlan's recovery had been
abandoned Occasionally the CONNIE
dian is rational.

and made particular inquiry concerning
the train. The conductor backed up
to Winston aud as the train started
back three armed men got aboard at
Winston, jumped off and disappeared
in the thicket. The superintendent at
Fort Smith was notified and strong
force of deputy mdrshals went down
and guarded the train through.
When the train first left Winston a
shot was fired ON the mountain side
near by. This was quickly repeated
near the tunnel and again from the
top of the ridge over the tunnel, and
is supposed was fired as signal for
the gang at the west end that the train
was coming. 1t was fond they had
prepared for hold-up at high tres
tie near the west end.

SWEET HARMONY REIGNs.
Among New York Democrats, and
Cleveland Sure to Garry the State.

New YORK, August 9-The Herald
"aDti-snappers," through ex-Mayor
VIM. r.. Grace, promised Mr.. Cleve-
land thev would not favor. aid or abet
any movement in opposition to Tam
many Hall in this campaign. Mr..
Cleveland when he went back to Gray
Gables after the notification demon
stration at Madison Square
Garden carried the foregoing pledge
with him. He saw Mr.. Grace on Fri
day and they started for Buzzard's
Bay and told him constant agitation of
the question Independent or anti
Tammany ticket is disturbing the har-
mony of the party not only in New
York State but all over the country,
and making the outlook doubtful.
Mr.. Grace then told Mr.. Cleveland
there would be no interference with
the Tammany question. Anti-snap--
pers are figuring as the disturbing
element, therefore it is believed by
Democrats to be absolutely settled.

KNIGHTS AT DENVER.
FOURTEEN DIVISIONS FORM A
LINE AND MAKE A
GRAND PARADE.
Thursday Appointed as the Time for
the Election of Officers The
Scramble for the Next
Conclave.

DENVER, August 9.-The Knights
Templar have possession of the city as
much as if it were one of the old Eas-
tern cities they captured during the
early campaigns. The Knights filled
the streets, buildings and the clubs al
day They caused Denverites to get
up two hours earlier than usual, for at
O'Clock this morning the city pre-
sented lively appearance, as it has
since the visitors commenced arriving
Four hours later they were engaged
i'll their grand parade, the conclaye had
opened and everybody was glad. The
air was filled with dancing plumes and
flaming swords, while the brilliant
sun, at times, peeping out from behind
the clouds, glistened as the gold and
silver lacings and trapping of the men
and horses passed. 1t was such Pc
rade as has never been seen here be-
fore or i'll many cities. The air was
bracing and there were big gusts OF
wind from the mountains. Last
nights shower had beneficial effect.
There were nearly 100000 people
scattered along the line of march
when the parade started. In the
downtown district spectators stood
five and ten feet deep. Up town the
crowd was not SO large, but every ac-
cessible point ofVantage was crowded.
The score Of grand stands public and
private, were packed and every win
dow along the route was crowded, as
well as the roofs, porches and lawns.
The downtown buildings were all
iammed, with sight-seers. The same
can be said of the structures on the
intersecting streets.
The members of the Grand En-
campment Knights Templar of the
United States were escorted to the
asylum with fitting honors, and the
supreme body of the Knights were
in session all the afternoon for local
business Of the encampment. Very
little was accomplished this afternoon,
but tomorrow start will be made in
earnest and the work of the twenty
fifth conclaye continued until all the
business is cleared up. The election
Of officers will take place Thursday.
In the meantime there is the report
of the Ritual Committee to consider
and the fight for the next con-
claye is quietly going on between
Boston and Cincinnati with Louisville
and Minneapolis III the race also. The
encampment is composed of Past
Grand Commanders, Past Grand Mas
tiers, Grand Commanders, Grand Dep
uties, Grand Generalissimos and
Grand Generals Of the different States,
making up membership of about
400. The parade was in every sense
a magnificent pageant. The details
were so perfect that not the slightest
hitch occurred anywhere. The four
teen divisions formed promptly into
line on Fourteenth Street and marched
in good order throughout.
A dispatch received here states that
the Arkansas delegation arrived all
safe and sound yesterday evening at 7
o'clock.
