Whether q man lived In town or coun-
try, was a lawyer. doctor, merchant

living. no one cared, 70 he was true
man. We got the party splendidly
organized. and restored the govern
mont OF Texas into tho hands OF the
people. From tine day Governor Coke
was inaugurated In January, 1874, TO
the day Governor Ross went out OF

prosperous Read your statistics and
you viii see how marvellous Texas pro
crossed between these dates In jan

prejudiccd against town, capital and
labor mutually jealous. corporations
and capital denounced as enemies,
values shrinking, enterprise checked,

an effect without cause. What Is the

one, but one is Hoggism, and this state
will never prosper until confidence IA re-
stored, aud IL never win DO 80 long as
Hoggism controls. Against Governor
Hogg personally, / have not one word
20 say He may believe his policies
wise They are well aud commonly
known as Hoggism.
1t Is against his method and policies
that speak, not against the man, who
for aught know is good citizen. His
methods and policies are public prop
orty. Against them | protest. be-
llcye the principles set forth In the
platform on which Judge Clark makes
his race to be sound Democracy. be-
lieve Judge Clark TO be a sound Demo-
crat, and able man, and II elected will
make a sound governor.
Having no other wish in the guber-
Material race than the prosperity Of
Texas, | shall vote for him because |
believe bis principles, carried OUT, will
render the state prosperous, and he has
both the will and ability to carry them
into successful operation.
| beg TO add that do not believe
the difference on tho governors race
will seriously affect tho vote in favor Of
Cleveland and Stevenson In this state,
but | do believe the stand OF the Hogg
people on the silver question will hurt
the Democratic presidential ticket,
outside of Texas, unless It's evil effect
can DO counteracted by the Democratic
party In our own state.

In several of the e-producing dis

Uruguay has not been affected by

sxstoms of short.Hnnd.

Persons not informed think there are
scores OF systems in common use. This
is a great. mistake. There are various
ext-books, 1t is true, but nearly every
one OF them teaches the well-known
Pi.man system, in more or less modified
form. The Pitman Is, in fact, the great
system for all English speaking coun-
tries. What is popularity known ms the
American Pitman system ID the method
that will be taught In our forthcoming
lesson series. There is great advantage
in knowing that particular system which
Is used by the greatest number oil people.
A great deal OF business correspondence
is carried on directly in characters, and
secretary, to be serviceable, must under
stand the method most commonly used.
From a business point OF view, IL would
be poor policy to learn any other than
the Pitman system. II is used by ninety
five out OF every hundred American re-
porters, and lie besides the very best
system OF shorthand ever invented. This
method is not arbitrary, but scientific.
No matter what changes the language
may undergo, il will be impossible for
IL to extend beyond the capabilities OF
this far-reaching system. II Is adapted,
first OF all, to the human voice in general,
and, incidentally, to the English language
in particular.
