Ridgwsy ON Hill.

wAsHIyeTos, Jan. 29-James: W. Ridg-
way, district attorney of Brooklyn, in an
interview says: My conviction is that
there will be no break in the solidarity of
the New York delegation. Senator Hill
will receive every vote.n
'sAnd do you expect to see him nominated
for the presidency2"
THAT is just what Iexpect. Look at his
record. Is there parallel to it in the his
tory OF modern politics. We see him en-
tering the gubernatorial office at time
when the state is s6,000,0 600 in debt, the Re-
publican party in power in both branches
of the legislature and having both United
States senators. He goes out OF office with
the state debt reduced to $1,000, 900 and the
lowest rate of taxation in its history, be-
sides S4.0e0,00 in the treasury. During
each year OF his administration the public
school fund was increased $500, 600. So
much for the civil situation. How is the
status changed politically since he took the
reins2 A Democratic governor with ma
iority of $4,000 behind him; legislature
Democratic in both branches; one United
States senator of that faith, and another
one as soon as Mr.. Hiscockis term expires.
Don't you think man with that record de-
serves the highest honors in the gift of his
party2''

A splrt in the Alliance.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Celery Simpson,
supported by two other Alliance congress-
men, Watson of Georgia and Otis of Kan
sas, has split with the other Alliance men,
bers of the house, and it is said the difi-
Guilty is too serious to DE healed.
The trouble came.to head at a meeting
of Alliance congressman held in this city
last week, and the result was developed by
a refusal of Messrs. Simpson, Watson and
Otis to attend another meeting of Alliance
members last night.
At the meeting last week there was a
long and bitter discussion over the PROPOSE
ton that the Alliance men in congress
agree to cast their lot with the Democratic
party. This proposition was vigorously
opposed by Simpso1, Watson and Otis.
They contended that the Alliance had pro-
crossed fayorably without the aid of either
of the two great political parties and advo-
Gated the third party scheme.
The report of the split is confirmed by
the above named gentlemen. Watson, who
was the Alliance candidate for speaker of
the house, will probably be the leader of
the third party.

vokes. Hill is no more responsible for
New York going for Harrison than any
other Democrat who was elected. and the
whole state ticket was elected. There are
enough Democrats in New York TO carry
that state Democratic. But for a fun vote
to be polled Democrat of the staunchest
kind must be placed on the ticket For
this reason Hill has always carried New
York. He temporizes with nothing that is
mugwumpian; ne compromises with moth
ing sayoring of anything that is updemo-
cratic. He has ever fought with yigor any
thing not sound in the faith. Jackson was
never more of a Democrat than he.
Throughout New York, New Jersey, Con-
necticut, Delaware and Indiana his nominal
ton will strike in all Democrats a Choir d of
enthusiasm. His intense Democracy will

LEXINGTON, TEX, JAM 30.-The people
of Spring Prairie, a community a few
miles from this place, are greatly alarmed
at the existence in their midst of a terrible
malady, of which they are dying almost
every day. Nine cases have resulted
fatally since the 18th inst The physicians
pronounced it pneumonia resulting from Ia
grippe. The symptoms are the same in
every case. Usually the disease progresses
very rapidly, every change being infavor-
able until death comes to the sufferers
relief Our physicians have exhausted
every resource, but seem powerless
to stay the hand of the destroyer. Four
victims were buried yesterday. They were
Mrs. Hannah McClanahan, wife of Hon.
John NJ. McClanahan, William Judkins and
wife, and an infant of Joe Fowler. The home
of William Judkins presented an agoniZing
spectacle yesterday. The ifeless forms of
the father and mother were stretched in
death, while two of the children were
gradually being choked to death by the
merciless influenza. Mr.. Judkins died
first, and the dying wife requested
that his remains be withheld from
burial until she could be laid beside him.
They were buried in one grave.
A number of cases are expected to die at
any time. Some of the nurses declare it
cannot be pneumonia, but they are unable
to say what the disease is.
That entire community is horror stricken.

The notion is spreading amo-g the friends
Of the administration here, that Mills win
run against the governor, if he shah be de-
feated for the senate at the special session,
as they think he will. They are not dis
posed TO take much stock in the candidacy OF
Clark, although they regard II as posi-
bility. They look on the scheme to defeat
Hogg for the second term as very
hazardous one, that no shrewd
or cautious politician win seri-
ousiy attempt. They point to the sew
eral failures of that sort in past years, and
think that the politicians of to-day viii not
forget the lessons taught when Swain tried
TO defeat ireland. and Sayers to chiseI the
Old AlcalGe out OF second term The no.
ton that Mills may ignore preccdents and
try to knock out the governor in the contir-
gency mentioned, is perhaps based on the
record which be has recently made for sur
prising his friends and the public by GER
tain perform ances of his on the high ropes,
and by his desire to ''rebuke" somebody.

Peoples, Party Meeting.

DECATUR, TEX, Jan. 30.-Pursuant to a
call of Judge A Edwards, chairman of the
Peoples party in Wise county, meeting
was held at the courthouse this evening.
Judge Edwards. in q short speech, ex-
planned the object of the meeting. John
Sanford, secretary of the Wise county ALI
ance, was then elected chairman. and G.
Crozier secretary. A committee of six was
then appointed to draft. resolutions and
platform, composed of the following gentle
men: Judge A. Edwards, chairman; Rev.
j. B. Dabney, Jake Brown, Dan Boone, Ed
Mattix, and c. M. Huson. The committee
then presented resolutions condemning the
Democratic and Republican parties, charg-
ing them with fraud and corruption, and
that they were in harmony with each other
in great many respects; that reform was
needed all along the line, and minated that
the country would go to the demnition bow
vows If some radical changes were not
made at once, and that the only sure way to
get the needed reform was by and through
the Peoples party. The resolutions and plat
form were unanimously adopted. A COM
mittee on permanent organization was then
appointed, consisting of d. Boone, chair
man; G. NJ. Huson, J. T. Brooks, Jake
Brown and James Hickey. Col B. Morris
of Rhome, one of the leading Democrats of
Wise county, was appointed on the first
committee, but refused to serve, stating.
that he was not in sympathy with the
meeting, and that he would be compelled to

The date Of the primaries to elect repre-

Saturday following, being the 9th OF April.
The basis of representation 80 be one dele

The committee then considered the ques-
tion OF calling county convention to nom

committee was not unit on this PROPOSE

convention. He offered as a substitute for
the motion committing the committee to a

REPUBLICAN wRANGLE.
TIE GAzETTE reporter has it from good
authority that the Republicans of Dallas
county will probably hold county conven-
ton. Just now they are divided over the
question of the authority of Mr.. Brownlee
to call congressional convention. a very
respectable number, composed of some of
the local leaders of that party, deny his
claim 10 the title of chairman and contend
that it rightfully belongs to Mr. Gillespie
OF Tarrant county. Notwithstanding the
report of the committee appointed by the
Republican club last night, to the effect
that Mr., Brownlee has clear title to the
craftsmanship it is said that not a wheel of
the county organization will turn until the
chairman of the state executive committee
gives decision in the premises.

AUSTIN, TEX, Jan. 2S.-The result Of the
inquiry by the Hillsboro editor into the
anonymous charge that Governor Hogg had
INDUCED in language disparaging to the
fame of the Confederacy, or, TO be more
particular, had spoken of his friend Sen
ator Chiffon as one ''not tainted with a
Confederate record. A." only proves what the
governors friends have always felt sure of
that IS, that he could not have used Ian
guage that would have insulted the MEN,
DRY of his father and other relatives who
died on the field of battle fighting for the
Confederacy. They who know the gov
ernor best know that he is not made OF clay
so coarse as that, and are glad that the mat
ter has been investigated and explained for
the satisfaction of those who do not know
him.
Even though he did not have a relation
in the Confederate army there is nothing
Whatever in his moral makeup to warrant
the notion that he would secretly or openly
asperse the memory of any man or men
who bled for the lost cause, or would in
any manner show the slightest prediction
against them or theirs. So far from that
being the case, it is q well-known fact that
every appointee Of his since he became
governor, so far as l know, was

a very strong prepossession against one

Special to the Gazette
RATION, N. NJ, Jan. 27.-The wife OF q
half-breed Indian living near Ration. on the
line of the Santa Ee railroad, gave birth to
q child few days ago that is attracting
much attention and exciting great curiosity.
The legs sof the child are exactly like the
legs of dog-in fact the entire lower part
of the body is the body of dog. The
tanks are joined together and the legs and
hips are covered with thick yellow skin.
The feet have five toes, but the nails are
shaped like the nails of dog, and under
the foot there is q cushion such as dog
has. The child was ten days old before
anyone knew anything about it, and then a
man who happened to stop at the house dis
covered it. The father and mother are
very much, in fact as the freak has been the
means of bringing them quite a little
money, they probably have very little re-
gret. 1t makes noise that sounds more
like the whine of a pup than the cry of
baby. The head and arms were well
formed and looked perfectly natural The
legs and feet were then shown. The legs
were up close to the body doubled up as
dog doubles up his legs when sitting on his
launches. The father says that six
months before the birth OF the child the
mother hal been attacked by q large
shepherd dog and badly bitten. The fright
threw her into commissions and for three or
-four months afterwards she continued to
have spells and she would fall down and,
frothing ut the mouth, bark like dog and
feet. For few weeks before the birth of
the child, however, she had appeared to be
much bstter and had not suffered from an
attack
