HOGG AT SAN ANTONIO.
THE TAMALEvILLIANs GAVE HIM A
VERY RESPECTFUL HEARING.
He Makes One Of Bis Peculiar Talks and
Gives it to the Poor, Thinskinned
Daily Papers, Until They
Weep Off All the Dots.

Special to The Statesman
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, May l0.-Gov.
]. S. Hogg arrived in San Antonio
unheralded and unwelcomed at a.
M. on the delayed International and
Great Northern train, due at ll.2O p.
m. The governor was accompanied
from Austin by Land Commissioners
McGaughey. The night was chilly,
but the San Antonio hackmen were
out. They were at the depot in force,
and they "sized up" the two forlorn
looking strangers and overwhelmed
them with more demonstrative atten-
tions than the most enthusiastic
crowd of loyal constituents could pos
sibly have done.
AT 11:3O there were 800 spectators
present. The band came inside and
changed it's tune to "Dixie." In a
few minutes carriage drove up con-
tanning the governor and the land
commissioner, escorted by the mayor.
They ascended to the stage, the mayor
in the lead. They were vociferously
applauded. Mr.. Callaghan advanced
and said:
Fellow Citizens
The governor of the great state OF
Texas needs no introduction to a San
Antonio audience, but L take pleasure
| in presenting to you our present gov
ernor, and let me add our future gov
ernor.
His honor retired and his excellency
came forward Then followed one
of the most remarkably rambling
talks on record. After asserting that
ever since he had been governor he
had acted up to the platform on which
he was elected, and defying anyone to
point out single instance in which
he had failed to obey it. He asked
the audience to be perfectly at ease
and not to become confused or embar-
rassed by his presence. The speaker
next referred to the financial rec
ord of his administration, stating
that it had paid off since it had been
in power $248, 900 Indebtedness in
Cured during the Republican admin,
istration twenty years ago, ana tha'
with revenue reduced 25 per cent
"Then what issues have we before

Every one appeared to be satisfied
with the reports they had got in th'
daily papers, and no one had an!
: questions to ask. The governor con
tinued in about the same tenor OF hi
former speeches, not forgetting t.
hammer away at the daily press few
more licks.

THE METHODIST CONFERENCE.
Delegates are Working Iadustriously and
Much Business is Being Transacted.

OMAHA, Neb., May 1O.-The cold
rain and weather that has prevailed
tor several days has cast no gloom
over the Methodist conference and
most of the delegates seem deter
mined to make the gathering a sue
cess in every way despite the beastly
condition of outdoor atmosphere.
Bishop w. Fitzgerald presided at to-
davis session and DIR. B. B. Hamlin
led in devotional exercises. The
committee on Episcopacy expected
to report to-day, but the COM
mittee will not be ready
on account of the fact that the colored
brethren are pulling every possible
string to secure the election of col
ored bishop. The final report will
probably come up Thursday or Fri
day.
The fight over the editorial chair OF
the Advocate at st. Louis is growing
very interesting. 1t lies between DR..
Masden of st. Louis, DR.. Bowman
Young of Kansas City, DR.. Creighton
OF N6DraShd, DI' Ouhoio VI OhiN"So,
and DR.. Maxfield of Omaha are can
didates for the position held by DR..
Stowe of Cincinnati, agent of the
Book Concern. Some very energetic
wire pulling is going on along these
lines.
The order of the day was the report
of the commission on constitution.
DIR. Bulkley moved that Bishop
Merrett, chairman of the constitu-
tion committee be REQUEST
ed to explain changes suggested
by report. After long debate the
motion carried. The rules were sus-
pended here and the report of the
committee on the Columbian exposi-
tion was called for. The report de-
clared strongly against Sunday open,
ing. The committee heartily favored
an appropriation of five millions OF
government funds provided the gates
be closed on Sunday, but If the gates
are to be open on Sunday then the
conference is asked to oppose the ap-
preparation. The committee recon-
mended that telegram bearing
the sentiments of the report be
sent at once to the presi,
dent of the United States, and
congress. Several vigorous speeches
were made favoring the resolutions

DEMAND THE DIFFERENCE.

In buying baking powders, as well as any
thing else, insist upon having the worth Of
your money. If another brand is urged upon
you in place of the Royal, bear in mind that
it has from 27 to 50 per cent. less leavening
strength than the Royal, as shown by the off
cial chemical tests, which is equal to from 13z
to IS cents rpound lessvalue than the Royal.
If you buy low class powder, see that you
are charged correspondingly lower price.

toward the so-called Faribault plan,
Archbishop Ireland says: "The social

decision is tolerari protest, which

A letter addressed to me in the name
of the propaganda brings out the full
practical meaning of the words. The
plan is, of course, departure from
the ideal, and in case of departure the
canonical language is toerari protest
but they imply for practice full ap'
proval."
