All Negroes Are Treaoherous,
Says James Hogg,
WHEN A POLITE NEGRO PORTER


DENTON, TEX, oct. Especial. =
Gov j. $. Hogg addressed u good
crowd ut the courthouse In this city
this afternoon. This is stray sale day,
and the square aud streets were
thronged with people, but the people
seemed more intent ON buying and
swapping horses than ON listening 10
an alleged Democratic candidat @
for governor, at least the
throng on the streets was not per-
ceptibly diminished by the governors
address. The audience was largely
composed OF country people-''boys
from the forks OF the cruelSN-and
Third party men. There we're also
Clark and Hogg men In the crowd.
The governor opened his address by
saying there was dissension In tho
ranks OF the Democracy and he
wanted the members OF the party
to get together and discuss the ques-
tions which were dividing them. He
said that the doors Of the Democratic
party, like those Of the church, wore
always open and that the erring brother
who had gone astray WAS always vol
coined back to the fold.
The governors speech was hardly
more than Il resume or duplication Of
the addresses he has delivered at other
points, since the opening of the cam
paign His remarks were listened to,
but there were very little cheering or
applause.
An incident Of the governors visit 10
the city which will not be likely 10
secure him any votes occurred In front
of the Oatman house, the leading
hotel Of the city, this morning. Gov.
HOgg drove down from the resi-
dence Of his brother-iu-law, Judge
II. @. Ferguson, and stopped at the
hotel. The porter Of the house, col
ored man named Harrison WEIGH, came
out when the carriage stopped ana
grabbed the governors grip 70 carry Il
into the house, He says he didn't
know the governor and thought he was
a guest who had just arrived. The gov
ornor snatched the grip from him,
with the remark: ''Ilet that alone. me-
groes are all treacherous.n
Several gentlemen heard the remark,
and one Of them, a HOgg man. remOn-
strated with the governor, telling him
such language would injure him, where
upon the governor hunted up the port
or and made an humble apology.
A GAZETTE reporter interviewed the
negro later, and he said the apology
don't go,n that he he'd intended 70
vote for Hogg, but he wanted IL under
stood that he was q Clark man from
now on.
Hon. I. j, Powell Of Fort Worth,
Clark man, was billed for q speech hero
to-day, bat was prevented from filling
the appointment BY sickness.
