MORE TESTIMONY


NEW YoRE, Oct 10, ls92
DIR. w A. Adams, Fort Worth, Tox.
MY DEAR DoCToR:-I am glad to sec
by your letter Of the lst OF October
that you are taking lively interest in
politics. as every good citizen OF that
state ought to do, especially at this
time.
In my Judgment the fate Of Texas
for the next ton years Is in the balance
in this fight, as il Hogg Is reelected, 1
do not believe the state can possibly
recover from the disaster, no matter
what may be done 20 rectify IT,, in less
than the time stated. Under his rule
capital has almost entirely deserted
that great state, so richly endowed and
so generous in response 10 the magic
touch OF venturesOme capital. Since !
have been in New York, a little over a
year and half, a large number OF Tex
ans have sought my help TO put them in
the way Of placing enterprises. At the
beginning | undertook TO do what
could for them, only to find ON the door
of every capitalists office the sign, mo
Texas enterprises wanted here.n In my
opinion the Hogg administration has
retarded the growth Of Texas at least
twenty years. The feeling against the
policy OF Texas with respect TO capital
is universal. No man having money
will give it to the task Of developing
the resources Of n state which shows
itself to be hostile to the main factor
OF development. II you can elect Clark
you will stop the damage now, and can
begin to rebuild the fortunes OF the
state. II you do not elect him IL will
be a greater calamity than the first
election Of Hogg, and more than that
need not be said. hope you will have
the cooperation of all the people who
have the welfare Of Texas at heart in
this fight for the life of the state.
Very Truly Yours,
G. h. MEEK.

THE county commissioners at Austin
were the first TO walk on the assistant
attorney'general's opinion regarding

opinion would DO the more notice

II any inference may be drawn from
the assiduity with which the jim

rallying to the support OF the governor
who recommends that the school fund
be loaned to such enterprises, it must
be concluded that this fake is not dead,

THERE will surely be some fine rail-
road picking In Texas In case of Hogg's
reelection, All indications point TO
the fact that the big railroad man
ayers have certain combinations on foot
which they desire to make in case there
is another administration SO complais-
ant when rightly approached as the
one which signed the bill allowing the
consolidation of the Missouri, Kansas
aud Texas parallel and competing lines.
There is f. Pink Hill, Huntington's
hired man, whooping it up for Hogg in
the Houston Post; there is Cone John
son, attorney for the Missouri, Kansas
and Texas, stamping Smith county for
Hogg; there is John NJ. Duncan. attor-
ney for the International, now belong
ing to Gould, bowling for Hogg
on the stump; there is Web
Finley, attorney for the Cotton
Belt tearing his shirt for Hogg; there
Is Horace Chiffon, attorney for any
railroad that wants TO hire him, exer-
cising his voice for Hogg, and N. A.

Is rHE sonoOL FUND DOOMED?
1t Is asserted by many persons whose
opinions are entitled to respect that the
permanent school fund OF Texas which
has been the pride and boast of every
patriotic citizen OF the state is to be OBJ
liberated That the Jester amendment,
by which per cent OF the permanent
school fund is to be diverted each year
to the available fund is the opening
wedge that win ha followed with other
legislation, which will eventually wipe
out the fund entirely.
Already $3.50, 600 has been taken from
the fund, and the precec emit having
been established other raids will be
made upon 1t, until It viii melt away
like the irosts before the sun.
The iund has heretofore been consid.
cred sacred-a heritage left by the
fathers Of Texas for the education OF
generations yet unborn. That Il would
ever be diverted from lis original pur-
pose waf beyond the imagination of

SID LARKINs, Dick Edwards, alias
Coyote Dick, Josie Hill and Lottie
Miner, or Lawrence, have been ar
rested for the murder in June last
OF Ed Callihan. This is the murder
that was laid at the door Of Harry
Kirk, and Josie Hill is the woman
that was riding out with Callihan
when be was murdered. Salt Lake
detectives are not apparently very
brilliant lot, and the Tribune seems
to doubt their wisdom in making
the arrests Of the above parties, and
is justifiably severe upon the man.
ner of the arrests, which were made
about midnight, seemingly for SEN
eational purposes. But whatever
the examination Of the suspected
persons may disclose, it is q fact
that the public as yet is not enlight-
ened concerning the satchel and its
bloody contents, found in the Cul.
len hotel and supposed to belong
10 Kirk and it is equally q fac,
that Kirk was at Clayton when the
murder was committed, and highly

himself up to resemble Mr.. Kirk,

In q Nutshell.

The Globe Democrat says: Mr.. Bland'a
assertion that Cleveland's anti-silver ct.
titude defeated him in 1883 is absurd.
The silver question did not enter In the
contest at Ill that year; he was defeated
ON the tariff question. s
That 10 not the way to state it. II
should be that General Harrison was
elected because Of the vague plank in
the republican platform which held the
hope to the lips Of silver men, and the
absence OF any such plank in the demo-
cratic platform. While that plank in the
republican platform did hold the hope to
the lips Of silver men and carried the en-
tire West for the republican candidate
the party has since broken that hope to
the hearts of the people, and woe unto
the party that tries similar experiment
next spring.-Salt Lake Tribune.
The Tribune states the whole
case, and states it correctly in the
above. We took the ground in 1888
that silver plank should have been
put in the democratic platform, and
events have subsequently, convinced
us more than ever that the election
was lost to the party then by itf
cowardice in not obeying tho plain
call of the people for silver, and
the party that shirks it this year
will be defeated beyond doubt
unless free coinage is already es
tabliehed.
