One would naturally expect a great
man like the Hon. John H. Reagan
ex U. s. senator and president of the
Texas railroad commission, to be able
TO discuss the differences between the
Huggltes and Clark democrats In a
dignified and intelligent manner, but
when asked for his opinion as to the
split at Houston yesterday, he
drawled out: well I'm glad that
we have at last got a chance to sepa-
rate the sheep of the democratic party
from the gosts-that's what we are
doing-that's all"

Yesterday'suBaII Game.

The game of ball between Waco and
San Antonio yesterday resulted in score
of 10 to l in favor of Waco. A very good
attendance was noticed and both teams
worked pretty hard, though the visitors
were always superior to the home team
in finding the ball with their sticks, and
got onto" our pitcher heavy. Rain fell
in the third inning and the game was
suspended for few moments, but was
resumed after the shower, though the
players found fielding and base running
rather heavy.
A fight between two fellows in the
grand stand caused another Iull in the
game. The men were not arrested. as no
policeman. except Special officer KriSc h,
was present.

POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS.
WRITTEN BY A GOOD DEMOCRAT

WRITTEN BY A GOOD DEMOCRAT.
What does it mean when a Hogg dele
gate says 1--WE are not here for principle,
we are here to nominate Hogg"
Hogs Commission can go back to Rail
Reading again
| think it was useless to compare liv-
ing Hogg, with the late Gen. Davis.
Whatever there may have been faulty
in Ex-Governor Davis, he was respected
by friend and foe for his ardent repuhli-
canism and aggressive partisapship, HOgg
has no party, is for Hogg only, against
Cleveland and the National party, and
must suffer by companion with the
dead.
That resolution, that every body has
to pledge tn vote for hOgg or be deemed
disioyal, will be bad thing in this cOun-
ty.
Since the Hogg men are opposed to
Cleveland and the democratic platform,
will they vote for the Harrison or Wea-
Yor electors.
The Hoggites demand thorough ergani-
zation and pledge from every candidate
to vote for the head of their ticket. How
will that be in Clark county?
Some few DAYS ago, Mr.. Brown, an able
attorney and Hogg leader of San Marcos,
said it was doubtful whether Hogg could
carry the preliminary organization; Jnat
time honored custom permits the tempo
rary chairman to be elected by viva
voce vote; that Hogg was strongest, but
the railroads might rush the Clark men
to Houston yet. He was mistaken; the
Hogg men recognize no precedentS or
time honOred customs. Who was 1t any
how that teegraphed Callaghan, Hold
San Antonio down for Hogg?"
Did some of the Callaghan boys actual
ly get back richer than they went? 1t

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying.

Our city has been left mayorlesS a great
deal of the time during the past two years.
Mayor Callaghan took a trip TO Paris and
other European cities; he has spent weeks
at Hot Springs, weeks travelling over
northern cities TO sell city bonds. weeks
was at Houston to help nominate the OBJ
noxious Hogg.
The people have become used to his
honor's absence; the city government
runs along just as extensively with him
absent as present, and as they don't want
him any longer are perfectly willing that
he should keep out of town altogether.
Now, this great local politician who
has manipula ted the democracy of BeXar
county so beautifully in favor of Hogg,
TO the congressional convention at Llano.
The people can spare him.
The vacancy caused by Alderman San
tleben's acceptance of the Office of county
registrar need not be filled. No body
wants to go into the present city council.
Let it gradually rot out,
The enforcement of the new election
law may be greatly crippled through in
competent management, but the people
must not be discouraged. 1t can be i'm
proved upon and the reform ballot move
ment has come to stay.
The results may not be all that the'
honest, intelligent voter has hoped for,
but it is step in the right direction.
The registrar should be man of cleri-
cal ability and good Judgment; he has
very difficult law to enforce; its pro-
visions are strictly guarded by severe
and he must look out that he
does not violate the law or prostitute its
purpose.

FROM MONTERREY.
How LuCien Lacoste Found the
City

City.
Mr.. Lucian LacoSte, a very popular
young man Of this city, who has been for
the past two months In Monterey, Mexico,
employed with the Monterey Foundry
Company and only returned to this coun-
try Tuesday, to accept position with
Gus Levy Il Co., as travelling salesman
for them in Southwest Texas, was called
on by LIGHT reporter this morning at
his home on Avenue and questioned re-
garding that city.
Business in that city is quiet said the
gentleman. There are three SmelterS
there, but at present only two are run
ming. The other Is stopped on account of
litigation. They have there a furniture
factory. besides several other kinds of
factories. The Americans are not treated
the very best in Monterey. There has
been too many criminals coming over,
those bank defaulters, for instance. If they
behave themselves, they receive the best Of
treatment. But the Americans have
abused the courteSies Of the MeXicans.
There are in Monterey no houses built on
the American plan, with the exception Of
Mr.. Mnrriam's and several other railroad
men. They have very fine brewery
there: IL is called the Cuanthemoc and
has capacity of $500 barrels per day.
September goth the mule cars will be
done away with and electric cars will be
put on. Very soon they will commence
the erection of a new state house. the es-
timated cost of which will be 5000, 900.
While | was there they celebrated the
election of President Diaz. The Plaza
IaragoZa was the place of celebration.
Around it was strung a large wire on
which a great many Chinese lanterns
were hung. They were red, white and
green. On the Goth the citizens will give
grand ball in honor of the governor"

Yesterday in the French Cham ber

net, Nj. Constans, struck in the face
M. Lauer, Boulangist Deputy, who
mad made some discreditable refec-
tions upon the minister. This pro-
ceeding extraordinary at the
polite French capital naturally pro-
duced an uproar. In the excite
ment a member cuffed another mem
oer's ears and a duel was arranged
for. A further row caused another
like arrangement. A journalist at
length took part in the melee, and
the questeurs had to intervene to
prevent general row. The Incl
dent as whole is a disgraceful one.
1t is not without parallel in Wash
ington annals, but such incidents
are now happily less frequent there

Crop Liens in North Carolina.

The missioner of Agriculture
is sending to the Register of Deeds
Of each county a circular, asking
FOR the names of merchants who fur
n1sh supplies to farmers on liens
Tie plan is to obtain from such
merchants the volume of their busi-
ness. This will cover advances on
crop liens. The drain on the State
by reason of this lien business is i'm
mense. Happily it is not general.
The Register of Deeds of Jackson
county writes: "There are no farm
mortgages 9iFen 10y the farmers of
this county. That is, no farmer
here goes to any merchant in the
Spring of the year and mortgages
what he expects to make for his
Summer supplies, but sell to persons
IN other occupations than farming.
The farmer of this county, and all
who make diversified crops are lnde-
pendent of the mortgage system.
But little guano is bought and the
buyers pay as they receive"
