DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES.

Attention is especially called to the
new rules for holding primary meet
ings as announced by Chairman s. G.
Sneed in another column. In holding
primary Democratic meetings, no at
tention will be paid to the voting
boxes either in the city or country nor
territory established as election pre-
cincts by late orders of the commits
sioners court. Democrats will have
to consider solely what was the terri
tory OF the old election precincts in
1890. The names of places given in
the original call for primaries desig-
nate what were election precincts in
1890 as to territory. All Democratic
voters who are citizens of the county
will attend the meeting of the primary
held in the territory in which he re-
sides, constituting what was an cleo
ton precinct in 1890. 1t seems there
should be no misunderstanding from
the language of the chairman's notice.
AS an example the primary for the
Seventh ward Will embrace what was
the exact territory of the Seventh
ward in 1890; and the Democrats of
the territory added thereto since 1890
will attend not the primary of the
Seventh ward as called, but the
primary that they would have at
tended had there been no extension
made of the ward. Again, the present
resident Democrats of each of the old
Jurisdiction will attend the primary
where they reside at present.

WORKING TOGETHER,

The city of Memphis has made more
rapid progress within the past few
years than in all her history before.
She is now becoming rival of st.
Louis, and may some day be a formid-
able one. The reason for the rapid
strides the city is making may be
readily seen in a single expression
which occurs in a recent number of
the Ledger: "The people of Memphis
are learning to work together" There
is more in this one accomplishment,
'learning to work together" than in
all the good luck that might ever
fall to the share of town, or all the
natural advantages it might possess.
When the people work together their
power is irresistible. Austin needs to
learn that lesson little more thor
oughly. Unanimity on the part of the
people will place this city at the head
of the southern cities. 1t is worth
trial.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1892-05-19

many respects, and this tendency to
criminal assaults upon white women
is one ofthe marked changes. There
can be no doubt about the facts, for
they are fully authenticated. 1t is
not at all likely that an innocent
person has ever been lynched
for this form of crime. The
people are always well satisfied
that they have caught the right man,
and in most instances a confession
precedes the hanging. Mr.. Douglass
is not to be blamed tor defending his
race, but he is greatly mistaken if he
thinks he can make the country be-
eve that respectable white women
in the south bear false witness against
the negroes in such relation. The
crimes are surely committed as repre-
sented, and so long as they continue
we may expect to hear OF additional
applications of lynch law to those who
thus shock and infuriate society with
their depravity.

THE SUIT DISMISSED.
THE CITY INJUNCTION DISPOSED OF
FOR THE PRESENT.
Judge Robertson Sustains the Demur-
rers of the Defendants and
The Plaintiffs Appeal to the
Supreme Court.

Yesterday morning was the time
fixed for the hearing of the petition OF
Mr.. Joseph Male and others, asking
for an injunction against the city,
and at the appointed time the attor-
neys for both sides were in attendance,
ready to go on with the hearing. OF
course it was understood that which
ever way the decision was made the
other side would appeal the case, and
a disposition among the lawyers was
manifested to do sway with all USE
less formalities and get at the issue at
once. To do this the plaintiff waived
service on those parties who have not
already been served and the argu-
ment on the demurrers of the defend
ants was at once begun. 1t was such
an argument as is seldom heard in
any court room and could only come
from such able attorneys as have been
retained in this case. Mr.. Sam Fisher
of the firm of Fisher & TONNES made
the leading argument for the defense,
and spoke for nearly three hours in
his usually mastery and logical man
ner. At the conclusion his honor
rendered his decision, the order being
as follows:
On this 18th day of May, 1892, this
cause came on to be heard upon the
demurrer of defendant to plaintiffs
petition, and thereupon the plaintiff
appeared by his attorney, and also
each and all of the defendants (hav.
ing voluntarily waived service and
delays and answered) appeared by at
torneys and the court having heard
Of counsel, and being duly
is of opinion that the law is
for the defendant, and that the de-
including the general de-
ought to be and it is hereby
by the court that the same
be sustained; and the plaintiff declin-
ingto amend it is further considered
and decreed by the court that the
plaintiff, Joseph Male, suing herein
for himself and others similarly stu
ated, take nothing by his suit, and
that this suit be and is hereby dis
and the defendants and each
of them go hence without day and
recover of plaintiff their
costs in this behalf incurred, for
which execution may issue.
To which judgment and ruling of
the court the plaintiff in open court
then and there excepted and gave
notice of appeal, which is here and
now entered and made part of the
ecord.

AN OBJECT LESSON.

The rise in the Colorado must sure
ly have been designed by Austin's
guardian saint as an object lesson. AT
any rate, it served that purpose, and
If there were citizens whom the lesson
did not benefit, 1t must surely have
been because they did not take time
to think, or did not open their eyes to
see. The dam is now about nineteen
feet high above the bed of the river
through the greater portion OF its
length. The river rose until the water
swept over the top of that nineteen
foot wall, and where there were gaps
in the masonry left for its outlet, it
poured through with a force that
churned it into foam for many yards
below, and filled the air with spray.
All day Monday, Tuesday and yester-
day the people thronged the banks,
watching the magnificent spec
tacle. Men who have visited
every manufacturing city in the
United States, and who are merely
visiting Austin, said as they watched
the water flowing through the lower
gap: "What future lies before this
city! What opportunities Austin
has! Why, the power at Grand
Rapids is not as great as the power
the fall at that one gap would give
Austin 7" And when we remember
that the dam, instead of being nine
teen feet high, will be sixty feet high,
and that back of 1t will be piled up
huge reservoir of water thirty miles
long, we can easily see what lies be.
fore Austin. So The STATESMAN is
confident that the rise was meant as
an object lesson, to- give the people of
Austin the faith they should have in
the city, the dam, the lake, the great
lake steamer, and everything else per-
tanning to the future of Austin.

made than for many years, an0
though the cotton crop may not bring
in SO much money in the fall, it will
not have run the farmers in debt for
its production.
The political pot is kept boiling
vigorously, every Saturday bringing
down from the capital several repre-
sentatives of each faction who hold
forth on the merits of their respective
positions with regard to campaign is
sues. Last Saturday it was G. M.
Rogers for Clark, and Colonel Faulk
for Hogg. This Saturday it will be
Judge Fillmore for Hogg, and Bats
and Gregory for Clark. Between
these days local politicians faithfully
attend the fires. Manor is the strong
est precinct in the county and each
side will make heroic efforts to send a
majority of the fourteen delegate to
the convention.

SOUTHERN LYNCHINGS.

The st. Louis Globe-Democrat has
an article on Southern Lynchings"
which will go far to make the South
forgive the Globe-Democrat for the
many unjust things it has said about
the people of this country. 1t says:
"There is a peculiar atrocity in these
cases which goes far to excuse the ac.
tion of the lynchers. In all the list of
crimes there isnothing more revolving
than an offense of this kird, and it is
no wonder that white men hasten to
hang black ones who are guilty of it,
1t is useless to quarrel with
the sentiment that Endorses lynching
when the laws delay might possibly
defeat tho ends of Justice" The
Globe-Democra also takes Fred Doug
lass to task for asserting that colored
men are not ravishers of women and
children, and pointing to the
act that such crimes were
unknown during the war
times, when the men were away from
home. The paper rejoins:
But the negroes of the present are
not the negroes of the past, Mr.. Doug
lass should recollect. The new gen
Grafton differs from the old one in

AN EXPLODED BOOM.

The Birmingham, Ala, Democrat
says Chill and Gray sounds WELL"
and adds that such q combination
would mean sweeping Democratic
victory. 1t is difficult to understand
how even such rabid Hill organ as the
Democrat could fail to read the signs
of the times better than this; for the
truth is that they were never palmer
in all the history of the country. From
the very beginning of his campaign
Fill has overreached himself, and his
prospects have been steadily lessen
ing from the first. He might at one
time have been considered a presi-
dental possibility, but since then
have come the snap convention and
the Southern tour, and he is possi'
bility no longer. The country has
had enough of him, and the sooner he
and his followers make this discovery
the less will be his humiliation in the
end. Hill will never be president.
He will never be the nominee of the
Democratic party. He will not even
come respectfully near securing the
That honor is reserved
for better man.
