The regular monthly meeting OF tho
Peoples party club OF Fort Worth. was
held in Judge BeokhOws court room
tthe Seventeenth districtl last night,
and was not largely attended. Dr.
BrOiles, chairman. presided.
The first speech Of the evening was
made by tho Peoples party candidate
for the legislature, J. II. jackson. He
secuted with indignation the idea that
tho Peoples party candidates would
withdraw. He said Hogg had spurned
the Peoples party, or the Alliance,
which was the same thing, and they
hsd enough OF Hoggism in this state to
last for all time. Answering the OBJ
lection that the Peoples party did not
attack Clark, he said he failed to see
tho sense of stirring up scrap with a
fellow who was not fighting you. He
thought his party would vote for Clark
in p eforence TO Hogg, as he thought
tho Clark Democrats would favor
Nugent II they saw no chance to elect
Clark.
Rugent wns their man and they
would vote for him. He WIS cOnscrva-
tive and his election would restore that
confidence In the state OF Texas that
WAS lost by the population Hogg had
made for II by his administration. He
took up the railroad question aud de-
fonded tho principle OF tho Peoples
party In favor Of government owner
ship IN contradiction 10 HOgg's idea Of
coniscation by railway commission
The first was honest ana therefore the
Third party favored IL. The other was
essentially dishonest and the one who
supported IL was thief. They were
IN s.f Fufrs lnu1fnff tUtth tho rail-
roads, and in honest regulation, though
they believed tho solution Of the whole
difficulty was In government owner
ship,
II elected TO tho legislature he would
do his best In advocacy Of every honest
measure for tho advancement Of the
true Interests OF tine slate and sespec-
tally Of tho industrial classes.
Ho fay0rs separate penitentiary,
lunatio and other asylums, etc, for the
negroes just ~ we have now u dividing
line Ia schools, cars and 30 on. When II
was possible TO got competent super
vision from among the colOred men, he
favored placing Colored superintend-
enhB over these institutions.
He avowed himBolf opposed TO Mills
for senator and would oppose his cleo
ton II In the legislature. He did not
believe, In any event Roger Q. Mills
would DO reelected United State sena-
tor.
Atsome time In tho near future he
would discuss the differences in the
platforms Of the Peoples, Democratic
and Republican parties, He was not
able TO do 80 last night for he was sick,
DR. BRou4Es ADVISES WORK.
DR.. Broilos favored, from now ON un-
til election, weekly instead Of monthly
club meetings, and the suggestion was
unanimously adopted. The doctor then
said, tho idea OF tho members OF the
Peoples party voting for Hogg was
simply absurd No scli-respecting man
In Texas could vote for Hogg and his
party, Mills and Coke OF al. He made
effective use Of Coke's Hillsboro speech.
The great difference between the
Peoples party and the others, was they
voted for principles while the others
Wore HOgg or Clark men. Ho pre-
dicted, when the campaign was over,
Hogg's would be the third party, for he
would bn tho third man In the race.
They we're not lighting the Clark
people, because thoy accorded to them
tho same right they asked for them
solves the right TO think as they
pieASeu, MOI clark speaker had yet
said US Coke did, that the man who
would not vote for Hogg was traitor
who deserved death. We will elect
Judge Nugcnt governor Of Texas, be-
lieVe. This is Il prediction and not q
throat
