The Club meeting and Speaking Last
Night.

Last night the Cleveland and Thur
man Democratic Club held an enthusi-
astic and largely attended meeting.
A number of new members were
added to the club, and arrangements
were perfected for a grand torch-light
procession tonight
The event of the evening was the
speech of Hon. Paul Jones, TeXar-
kana's popular silver-tongued orator.
When this favorite son entered the
hall he was warmly applauded, and as
he arose to address the club, there was
continued cheering. Though unwell for
several months past, the speaker did
not disappoint his hearers, and as the
eloquent, earnest and burning words
fell from his lips, the audience gave
him wrapped attention, and very often
demonstrated their approval in APP
plause and cheer upon cheer. Mr.
Jones dwelt at length upon State and
national issues. Regret we have not
space to report, even in condensed
form, the splendid address, His words
of caution and appeal for earnest,
united work for Democratic sue
cess, were well received, and
enthused all present, and every one
went away determined to fully do his
duty in the approaching election.
Other speakers, j. Q, Mahailey and
Lee Estes, also made good speeches.
Meeting was a regular Democratic
love feast.
