REPUBLICAN occuPA TON.

| REPUBLICAN oCcuPA TON.
The repu blican party in the south
ernS end western sections of Texas is
moving with steady tread upon the
intrsnchmsnts of the enemy. From
Calves ton in the southeast TO FL Paso
in the west the lines OF investment
are complete and unbroken. The en-
tire region bordering on the gulf and
the Rio Grapde Is taken up by the
congressional candidates of the re.
publican party, who are today enter
ing the field for the express purpose
of Wrestling this section of the state
from the democ racy. The Tenth,
Eleventh, Twelfth and Thirteenth
districts are now being actively can
vassed by the republican candidates
for congress from these several dis
tricts and this can ,ass is not forlorn
hope by any means. In the Tenth
distric, in which the democracy
have nominated Gresham, Of Calves
ton, Judge Rosenthal is making a
strong canvass, and bis latest advices
from the field encourage him
to believe that he Is booked
to win in the coming cleo
ton. A victory there, over such q
democratic opponent as Gresham, the
little tin god of the Island City, will
be a great cause of rejoicing among
Texas repu blicans. The bitter fight
that is being waged in the Eleventh
district between the democracy aud
the third party gives the field into
the hands of the republicans, unless
something unexpected. happens in
that quarter. Col. Brewster, the re.
publican nominee, will get almost the
solid vote of the Rio Grande roun.
ties in his district, and with the in
roads made by the third party candi.
date on the democracy ought to carry
that district by safe majority. Grain
is already on the run, declaring that
the tactics of Terrell have rendered it
uncomfortable to longer meet him in
JOINT debate, and the impression is
that the third party candidate has
been little too much for the white
headed boy of the democracy in that
district. In the Twelfth district the
republican nomination has just teen
made, but 1t Is made with full knowl-
edge of the weakness and unpopular
ity of the democratic candidate in
several of the strongest counties of
his district, and after such care
full canvass of the situation as to JUS
tlfy the belief that Mr.. Terrell, the
repu blican nominee from this district,
will have q good fighting chance for
carrying it in the ensuing election.
In the Thirteenth district the repub-
licans have put Col. Malloy into the
field as their standard bearer, and
they expect him to carry their ban
ner to success. His district comprises
the panhandle, the republican strong
hold OF Texas, and unless the en-
dorsement of Clark operates against
the republican chances there, that
beng Nugent's stronghold, the
chances are i'm favor of Col. Malloy's
election. This is not the only ground
J preempted by the republican party
this year. There are at least two
other districts In which there is a
asonable prospect Of party success,
| and the war will he tong ont TO the
end. II Texas can send up three OF
four republican congressman to Wash
ington the party at large will thinR
that the political millennium has in
deed come.
