From y Clark Platform, and viii Now
Vote for Clark
Denison, Tex, Nov. Especial. r
An amusing incident occurred on the
corner Of Main street and Rusk avenue
to-day. There congregated a crowd OF
probably twenty-five colored voters.
One fellow, Republican, was boldly
and enthusiastically advocating Hogg,
and stating that wages would be in
creased and more work he secured if
they would only cast their votes for
Hogg and his ticket. The enlight-
ened(?) negro preached Hoggism
for twenty-five minutes without
being interrupted, when suddenly a
Clark man (colored) happened along,
and listening to the argument of the
Hogg negro, boldly informed him that
he was talking from the Clark platform
and went on TO prove the same by a
prominent white Clark man. Hot
words were passed on each side, both
pro and con, when an officer found it
necessary to dispense the crowd OF both
whites and blacks which had grown to
be quite largo. The Hogg negro was
finally convinced that he had been dis
cussing Clark and his platform and then
avowed his intentions of heartily sup
porting the Little Giant The affair
caused much fun and laughter for those
who heard it.
