DALLAS. TEX, Oct, 1l.-lSpecial. +
AT 5 o'clock this evening 3,40O voters
had been registered. Registrar Mel
ton says circus in town Is bigger at
traction than he can draw against.
which accounts for the ,ightness Of the
days business. Many colored men
registered, owing, no doubt, 10 the ad-
vice given them by the Hon. Wright
Quincy last night. Judge Il. G. Bower
thinks that 5000 voters will register,
but this is deemed by conservative men
1000 votes above high water mark.
Phil Barry Miller, member OF the
state central committee for this district
visited Fort Worth to-day. Mr.. Miller
informs your correspondent that Clark
is certain OF election, that IL is written
down in the books this year and no
power can change it.
A close poll OF this county shows that
the fight is squarely.
BETWEEN JUDGE CLARK AND HoGG.
In two voting boxes only does Judge
Nugent develop strength. These are
Hutchins and Patrick's school house.
The lines are drawn and no powder will
be wasted ON sideshows from this on.
Judge Clark's friends arc arrang-
ing for close canvass
of every precinct in the county, The
followers OF Gov. Hogg have been pur-
suing n "still hunt and claim that
they have a poll that shows Dallas
county will give Hogg from
1900 TO 2000 majority. Judge
Clark's leaders laugh at these
claims They say that the action OF
| Col. Waller S. Baker in removing
Chairman G. b. Gillespie will make a
change Of 200 votes in the county and
send Judge Clark on his way rejoicing
with $500 majority.
Chiffon TO BE CALLED ON.
The friends Of the car stable ticket
are talking OF getting Horace iChilton
OF Tyler here TO answer the silver
speech Of Col. Seth Shepard. Horace
| Chiffon and John II. Reagan are sup
posed to be responsible for the free
coinage plank, the,statebank plank aud
the income tax plank in the car stable
platform and their admirers in Dallas
want them to come here and defend it.
DIR. J. II. BRIGGS,
editor of the State Medical Journal dis.
cusses politics in philosophical sort
of way although in the hammer and
tongs style. AS an editor the good
| doctor The is also alderman from the
| Twelfth ward) is a new departure in the
| tomahawk school OF journalism. The
doctor who is a stalwart Democrat
is greatly in love with Gov,
Hogg. Speaking Of his eXcellency to
night, DR.. Briggs said: HE is a d-In
scoundrel and not fit to be elected to
any position within the gift Of the
people. ] was an application the posi-
tion OF state health officer after
Hogg was elected governor. !
| presented him letters of Endorsement
from lbs counties In the state
and petitions containing 5000 sigma
lures. He did not appoint me, but
didn't mind that. He kept my letters
and petitions, however, and although
have written him and on one occasion
wired him siXty-five words asking for
the return OF those petitions he has
never deigned 10 notice me And then
he sent that political bllldOzer, Waller
Baker here from Waco on a mission.
| repeat what have said, Jim Hogg is
a id old scoundrel." The doctor
perspired freely when THE GAZETTE
correspondent closed the interview.
There is block Of money in one OF
the banks Of this city which says that
MIR. Cleveland will not carry New
York. It is understood that u syndi-
cate of Republicans and sporting men
have placed 1t there TO await takers,
The sporting fraternity are taking
great interest in the race for prosecut-
ing attorney. Since the days of Charles
+. Clint, public gambling houses have
been wen known features OF Dali
las by gas light and the afore-
said fraternity are perfectly will
ing that this condition OF af-
fairs shall continue. John =. Gill
lesple, the Democratic nominee,
made his race before the nom
mating convention on the plat
form: "Close the gambling houses
and enforce the Sunday closing
law" hence the widespread interest
manifested in the race between Giles
Die and Colonel Still Russell,
his independent opponent, BUSH
ness has been dull the past
summer and the boys do not care to
seek other chimes just when the climate
here Is salufrious and the mosquito,
