ALMOST A TRAGEDY.
THE OLD STORY OF AN UNFAITHFUI
WIFE.
But This Time a Tragedy Is Prevented
By a Defective Cartridge-Bird
Instead of the Fatal Buck
Shot Used.

Special to The Statesman
TExARKANA, June 29.-This morn
ing between the hours of 10 and IL
O'Clock what came near being a
tragedy took place in the north sub
urb known as Fairview, the princi-
pals to the trouble being John Ed
wards and John Anderson. The lat
ter had previously charged Edwards
with being too intimate with his wife
and the latter, it seems, had acknowl-
edged the charge. Anderson warned
Edwards not to come on
his place any more, Dut
this Injunction was disregarded and
Edwards went over this morning pre-
sumably to see Mrs. Anderson. The
husband proved to be at home, how
ever, and received Edwards with a
double barrel shotgun, one barrel OF
which contained buckshot and the
other bird shot. He fired the buck
shot barrel first on the intruder, but
the charge failed to explode. He then
fired the other charge and the whole
10, d of bird shot took effect in Ed
wards head and face, intlicting very
painful but not dangerous wound.
surrendered to the officers
and was admitted to bail, which he
furnished.

are awaited with great interest. The
Tagblatt says: "The die is cast. Bis
marck has attained the object for
which he has striven during the last
two years and forced the government
to take up the gauntlet he has so
often thrown at its feet. But to at
tain this Bismark has been obliged to
abandon the role of anonymous jour-
nalist. He exposes Chancellor Won
Caprivi to the eyes of foreign nations
and discredits him by means of reck-
less dialectic"
The Tagblatt adds: All patriots
aching hearts, but at the same time
they will admit that the government
is in self defense when it resolves no
longer to expose itself to the poisoned
arrows of its adversary. Chancellor
Won Caprivi's question as to whether
Bismarck's conduct is patriotic or not
will be answered by majority of the
nation with sorrowful but decided
negative. Out and out Bismarckians
may take the part of the government
but it is impossible to believe that the
pronunciamento of this civilian Wal
lenstein will be crowned with success.
The National Ieitung says it trusts
the dispute will soon be ended. 1t
assumes that Bismarck's attitude is
influenced by resentment at the en-
peror of Austria refusing him an au-
uience when in Vienna to attend
Count Herbert Bismarck's wedding.
The Zeitung then appeals to Bis
marcB's patriotism to end what it
terms a regrettable political spec
tacle.
The Vossische Zeitung says; "a
single false step on the part of the
government in the contest now openly
embarked upon may lead to a tragedy.
No matter what the opinion about
Bismarck may he, it will not be Bis
marck's tragedy" Continuing, the
paper says: eve merely hope the
government will not execute its threat
to take action against the creator of
the German unity.n

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, June 29.-The

wanted in Mexico for murder alleged
to have been committed at the Tor

missioner L. f. Price, who will for
ward the testimony to the state de-
partment at Washington to be acted
upon by President Harrison. The
prisoner pleaded not guilty
when arraigned. Benito Rendon was
placed on the stand. He testified that
he was a member of Garza's constitu-
tional army and that he joined Yba-
nez's forces eight or nine days before
Christmas and went with the latter
to attack the Mexican soldiers at Tor
tillaras ranch. In the fight that en-
sued three of the latter were killed.
A woman named Pautila Rendon was
also killed outright by shot from one
of Ybanez' men. After the fight was
over the revolutionists sought protec-
ton on this side of the Rio Grande.
The woman killed in the fight was a
cousin of witness. A large number
of witnesses are yet to be examined
and the defense will attempt to prove
that Ybanez is an American citizen.

THE TIME PASSING,

The state campaign has but few
more weeks to linger before it will be
practically brought to close at Hous-
ton. In doubtful states there would
still be fight to make between the
Democrats and the Republicans, but
in Texas it is always family row
which, all things considered, is the
most disagreeable row known to
modern warfare. The campaign in
Texas this year has engendered a
great deal of hard feeling, and has
given rise to many animosities. AS
the decisive moment draws nearer the
animosites do not grow less. The
friends of Governor Hogg claim
that he is already almost as
good as elected. The friends of George
Clark assert that they have strength
enough to prevent the nomination of
Hogg, and they count on considerable
reinforcements before the convention.
Believing, as they do, that the re-elec-
tion of Governor Hogg would be a
calamity to the state, they are work.
ng valiantly and persstently, not so
much to elect Clark as to defeat Hogg.
And they are right. The primary OBJ
ject is TO defeat a man whose whole
policy has been directly opposed to
the growth and development of the
state. He being defeated, Texas
has many a worthy son who
would fill the office with honor
and dignity. From now on to the
convention let every Democrat in the
counties which have not yet held their
conventions do his best toput down
narrow-mindedness and solf-seeking
in the governors office and fill their
places with patriotism and libera'ity

TEXAS PROGRESS.

Last week THE STATESMAN called
attention to the new Texas enterprises
reported in the Manufacturers Re-
cord. They were an abattoir at DIAL
las, a compress at Minneola, and
nursery companies at Fort Worth and
Llano. And then with one accord
the Hogg papers cried out {: "And
yet there are people in Texas who say
the state is going to ruin at lightning
speed"
1t occurs to THE STATESMAN that
the Hogg papers spoke without think
ing. Here were four new enterprises
reported for one week in Texas, the
largest state in the Union. Ala
pama could be hidden away
in the center of Texas and leave mar
gin enough on the outside to make
three or four states; yet the same num-
Der of the Record reported eleven new
enterprises in Alabama, such as iron
mines, oil mills, and others equally
important. During the same week
Florida had ten, Georgia eight and
Virginia twelve. And here is Texas,
incomparably the largest of all and
the richest in resources, and Texas
comes up with four! And the friends
of the administration point to it with
pride and say jubilantly. "Iook what
Hogg has done for Texasw Yes, this
is exactly what Hogg has done! He
has managed things SO that Texas,
the grandest state in the Union, has
made less material advancement in
the last two years than any other
state in the South. Four enterprises

GREENvILLE, June 29.-The report
from Denison announcing the killing
at that place of DR.. j. X. Vowel Great
ed much excitement among our peo-
pl2. To those who were fully cogniz-
ant of the cause leading to the TRACE
dy it was by no means a great sur
prise. Mr.. Harris has resided here
about eight years, during which time
he has been editor and proprietor of
the Herald, and has by his upright
manner and his untiring devotion to
the best interests Of our city and coun-
ty, made host of admiring friends
who will stand by him in his present
trouble. There was strong friend
ship between him and DR.. Vowel,
who was his trusted family physician
until few months ago when he was
informed of damaging statements by
Vowel rejecting upon the fair name
of his wife. A tragedy was prevented
by the sudden departure of the doctor
for parts unknown. The statements
of Vowel were not believed, and no
suspicion of wro 2 on the part of Mrs.
Harris was created in the minds of
our people by them. The excitement
soon passed away and no further
trouble was expecred until news
reached here of the tragedy at Deni-
son. AS soon as it was known SYM
pathy and assistance were rendered to
| Mr.. Harris by large number of our
up to Denison on the first train and
others followed this morning. Infor-
nation has been received that Mr..
Harris bond was fixed at $4,000 which
he easily gave and is now on his way
home.

LEGAL CORRUPTION.

The Times-Herald makes some
very plain and very serious charges
against the Dallas courts. 1t shows
how county judge said, not long
ago: eff this condition of affairs con-
tinues we had as we'll lock the doors
of the court house and throw the
keys in the well.n 1t also reports
this speech from the prosecuting at
torney: ~ say without hesitation
that it is safer for man to commit
murder in Dallas county than it is for
him to steal yearling or coat" 1t
was charged that where man &C.
cused of murder has money or friends
it is almost impossible to secure a
conviction; that the perjury of wit
nesses goes on unblushingly and in
open defiance of the law; that cold
blooded murderers have been &C.
quilted in Dallas county through the
testimony of perjured scoundrels, and
that "straw bail" had repeatedly
been used to set prisoners
free, and never in the history of the
county had the sureties been COM
PEELED to pay one dollar for prisoners
who had forfeited their bonds. These
are serious charges. Can Dallas Won
der that her citizens are murdered for
their money, and that even the guar
dams of her peace are shot down
while they are in the performance of
their duty? One of her murderers is
now on trial. 1t is expected that he
will be convicted of murder in the
first degree. His attorneys stand
ready to appeal the case, and it will
thus drag it's slow length through
session after session of the courts, until
some day he will be acquitted. View
ing this very probable contingency, it
seems great pity that the mob should
have failed to finish him when it had
the rope about his neck. Again The
would insist that Texas
needs reformation in the court room
as well as in the ballot box.

IMMIGRATION.

1t is amusing to note that the Hogg
papers continually repeat, with APP
parent seriousness, "What Texas
needs is immigration" And stating
this fact, and believing it, they can
vet support Hogg! No better example
of inconsistency has yet been furnish
ed the people of Texas. If the gov
ernor's adherents were fully satisfied
with the population of Texas, and
wanted to devise means to keep immi-
grafton away, they could not devise
better means than to favor the gov
ernor's reelection. True, some immi-
grants have come into Texas within
the past two years, in spite of the dis
couraging attitude of the state, but
the proportion of the immigration has
been greatly diminished, as every one
knows, and what wonder, when the
chief executive of the state has, by his
every act, shown his hostility to
people who wish to make investments
here, whether as corporations,
"aliens, ;" or "actual settlers" What
Roadway can a state make against a
governor who stabs her at every turn?
Talk about calamity bowlers There
is no such calamity bowler in the
whole state as the governor, who has
made the financial panic in Texas ten
times worse than it would have been,
and has added to this the deliberate
intention to unsettle the titles of thou
sands of former immigrants, who
have come to the state in good faith |
and established homes where they |
expected to end their days. True,
Texas does need immigrants. She
wants them in every county; hun
dreds of them; men with money and
men with no capital but industry and
pluck but there is but one way of
bringing immigrants to Texas, and
that is to secure more liberal and
progressive administration.
