are to have a walk-over.

Republicans Convention.


ton assembled in the Grand Opera
House, to-day (Sept. 2Sth). The
attendance was thin and the enthusi-
asm was thinner.
Mr.. j. G. Wise, Of Garrett, was
made permanent chairman, AID he
presided very creditably, except
that he seemed embarrassed by the
realization that the work of the con-
vention and the following campaign
would be as barren of results as the
charge of the light brigade at Bala-
clava.
Before proceeding to business,the
managers let down before the con-
vention stage-curtain on which
was peaceful rural scene, supposed
to be a compliment to the farmer
delegates but it was not sanguin-
airy enough to suit the fixers, so it
was rolled up and another one let
drop in it's place. This contained a
fiery, bloody picture, wherein old
time Republicans were shooting
Democrats but even this failed to
inSpire any enthusiasm.
The committee on order of bust
ness left the adoption of platform
of principles out of the program,
and recommended only the nomina-
ton of officers in an irregular order.
Whether the omission arose from
the fact that Republican leaders al
ways hold spoils higher than princi-
pies, or because the committee had
an inkling of the contents OF the
platform and were ashamed of it,
did not subsequently appear. Some
supposed that, on account of the
opera house not being considered
a strong building, it was thought
unsafe to permit the escape within
it's walls of SO large volume of
gas as the platform contained After
mature deliberation, it was decided
to risk it, and the resolutions were
read and adopted. They contained
the usual amount of sickening Re-
publican self.laudation and sway
backed, spawned and string-halted
arraignment of the Peoples party,
which showed not only the sore
headed spite of the bosses, but their
utter fear of the well-disciplined
Populist forces already in the field.
One resolution set forth, in sub
stance, that all which had been done
for woman, from the fall of man to
the overthrow Of the G. o. p. by
Cleveland, had been the work of the
Republican party, and that, there
fore, the convention extend to the
women, or that the women extend
to the convention tit was not entire

Brann the ltlnerant.

The following excerpt from the
Galveston Tribune tells of the wan
behring's of the great Brann:
Editor Brann of the San Antonio
Express had evidently forgotten an
experience he once had on an after
noon paper when he wrote the fol
lowing article. He had forgotten
how he came to Galveston on a cold
winters day, begging for work.
He had forgotten that at that time
he had been braking on freight
train. He had forgotten that he
was glad to 90 to work on Evening
Tribune at $40 week. He had
forgotten that he afterward drew a
salary of *25 a week and rendered
no services of any moment. He
had forgotten that he used TO sling
paint brush and oughtto be at the
SAINT business yet. Yes, these in.
disputable facts evidently had es-
capped his memory when he wrote
this:
"And now the Galveston Tri.
bune has been sold to satisfy credi.
tors. Somebody paid $4,000 for it.
"A fool and his money soon part
ed There is not an afternoon
paper in Texas that is worth half
that sum. There are bnt few that
any man with business sense would
take as gracious gift and give
bond to run a year. The three

The Houston Post sums 1t up in
this way: cit has taken nearly
three months for an extraordinary
session of congress to repeal law
which the national conventions of
both parties denounced as coward.
~ mskeshift. Is not this extra
or linary?" And it seems there is
no way of getting around it but to
agree it is most extraordinary
Austin Statesman.
Both of these esteemed con.
temporaries are ignorant Of the
fact, or ignore it, that in neither the
senate nor the house has there ever
yet been introduced bill to repeal
the cowardly makeshift denounced in
the platform of the Dem ocratic
party. Mr.. Cleveland has ball.
dozed the house into passing bill
to repeal the purchase clause of the
act, and the eenate will soon be
coerced into passing the same
measure. The action of Mr..
Cleveland is not cowardly, but it is
piratical.
