attitude towards the slogan Of Turn Texas

the railroads loose, but since he had done
that himself he was estopped from that
plea. In East Texas, where the negroes
live, no tells them that 1t means 10 turn tho
white man loose upon him. But in no In

caves Of which he was very proud, though
the better one had never been broken and
the other was not fit guide 10 train him
with. The name Of the unruly calf was
Jim and he had been fed upon grass until

man managed to gaspout, ''D-d II / know,
I'm following Jim.n Presently he got
enough Of IL and called TO his boy John TO
turn him loose, but the boy wasn't hurting
any, for It was his calf, and he answered
the old man that he couldn't do It, for even
II 1t did ruin him II would be the making
OF jim, and Jim was a mi yhty fine calf.

for the South, another for the East, and
different one for the West and every state.

not fitted to talk Democracy In Texas, but
as the national Democratic committee had

the same platform and in companionship
with Palmer, Stevenson and others Of ma.
tlonal reputation, he might DO pardoned II
he maintained his Democracy was sound.
He termed HoRg's platform q bolt from
national Democracy.
From information gained while north he
was enabled 10 assure his hearers the pros
poets for tho success Of Cleveland and Ste
venson were of the most fattering charac-
ter, and II was no chasing OF rainbows 10

Aud ho was here 10 tell the friends
Of Democracy that Hogg's backbone Is
broken In the black lands Of Texas.
He said that when Clark and his adher-

leave a Democratic convention, because
there was not Democracy enough IN IL TO
