Dallas News on the candidacy of
David B. Hill. Capt. MoCord is the
president of the David B, Hill club
organized at Cameron few day ago
by editor Il. G. Senter Of the Fort
Worth Gazette. The interview in
style, resembled some of the Gazette
editorials so much that we involunta-
rily glanced back several times to see
if it we're not Editor Senter himself
being interviewed, but it was Captain
McCord every time. Of course it is
possible that Captain McCord might
entertain the same ideas entertained
by Editor Senter. but how in the
deuce did he manage to get in Editor
Seuter's style expression and blum
ders? Here's one of them:
The source from whence comes the
charge that Hill is in favor of the in
terests of the east seasons it with
poor grace. The men who charge 1t
are advocates of Grover Cleveland,
who among public men, John Sher-
man not excepted, is the fisrcest enc
my Of the interests of the south and
west.
Now, that's just like Editor Senter
and, like a great many things he
writes for the Gazette, is the merest
bosh. A little further along in Editor
McC ord's interview Capt. Senter says:
AS between eastern Democracy and
western Republicanism the south, to
choose wisely, will take the former
Again, it is rainbow chasing for a
Democrat to start out in q presidential
campaign with the idea of capturing
a western state. If we abandon New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut, lndl-
ana and Delaware to what states in
the west may we lay rational claim
for an equivalent of their seventy
electoral votes.
Eastern Democracy is opposed to
free silver coinage, yet most OF the
interview is taken up in an effort to
prove that Hill is free silver man
and is the only chance to carly the
cast. No free silver man can car
ry the east, and Hill is the
weakest one in the party In the south
and west. All the talk about Hill
"winDing a sweeping victory" is
''pure baldel dash." THE NEWS will
agree that it is folly to entertain even
for a moment the idea that the demo
cratic party can carry enough of the
western states to elect candidate and
for that reason has opposed the agita'
ton of the silver question knowing
as every we'll informed person
knows that with free silver

would be lost to the party without
the ghost of show to make up for the
loss in the west. II Hills candidacy

opposed to the free coinage of silver

silver legislation if he was elected
