Bring the Lynchers to Justice
Dispatches Sent to the Sheriff and Dis
triot Attorney,


Governor Hogg claims to have done
everything in his power to prevent the tor
turing to death of Henry Smith, the Negro
murder. at Paris, Texas. He sent this dis.
patch to the Sheriffs at both Paris and Tex
arkana;
"Use all lawful means to see that Henry
Smith is protected from mob violence and
brought to trial for the crime be 'ore the
lawful authorities. Mobs must not be per-
mitted to try prisoner, in Texas. If you
nee help call for-it. By all me ms prCt ct
the majesty of the law AMI the honor of
Texas and your people from committing
murder"
When Governor Hogg received offic.al
information of the bu ming hs instructed
the County Attorney at Paris to secure the
names of all persons engaged in the affair,
and sent the following instructions to the
Sheriff of Lamar county, at Parls;-
I'D schsrge your sworn duty as an officer
of Il State faithfully and fearltssly.
Promptly complain before the proper au'
tborities against any person known to ave
engaged in the lynching of The Negro, Henry
Smith, at Paris, an report the names of all
witnesses to the distr ct and county attor-
ney, to the end that all the guilty persons
may be effectually prosecuted.
''ro N. B. DJak, District Attorney,
Clarksville, Texas-ln the lyme ing of the
Negro, Henry Smith, in Paris, the laws Of
the States have been openly defed. Every
good citizen Is interested in maintaining and
enforc ng thu laws of the land. Either law
and order or anarchy prevail and there can
be no compromise or middle ground. Mob
law in Texas must he stamped out. 1t is
be,i.ved and expected that you will prompt
ly, diligently and stently inquire and
a.csl tain who are the guilty persons, and
fear e's prosecute them Any assistance
needed will be promptly rendered.
~. S. HoGG, Governor of Texas"

STORM In THE NORTHWEST.
Terrific Snow Storm, and the Mercury
Continually Going Downward.


The snow storm which commenced several
days ago in " ashington has continued with
more or less severity ever since, has at last
developed into the Iearest approach TO
blizzard ever known in this climate. In Selt

drifts in all unprotected spots. The ther'

the CITY the storm is much more severe. a
snecial from New Westminster says: "The
cold snap in the Frazier Valley at the pres

HOME.

The prince rides no to the palace gates
And his eyes with tears are dim.
For Ae thinks OF the beggar maiden sweet
Who never may we | with him.
For home is where the heart is,
In dwelling great or small,
And there's many splendid palace
That's never home at all.
The woman comes to his little cot
With song when day is done,
For his dearie is stan ling in the door
And his children to meet him run.
For home is where thu heart is,
In dwelling great or small,
And there's many a stately msnsioe
That's never a 10 ne at all.
Could but live with my own sweetheart
In hut with san lei Aoor
I'd te richer far than loyeless man
With fame and a golden store.
For home is where the heartis,
In dwelling great or snail,
And cottage lighted by lovelight
Is the dearest home OF all.

TIL. PRIMARY.

The Times article yesterday on the pri-
mary has been misunderstood by some
OF our readers. The Times is for pri-
mary TO select delegates to the Guber-
material Convention, and 1t will hear
Of nothing else. The Times is for a pri-
mary 20 select our candidates for the
Legislature. and 1t Will hear Of nothing
else, and the primary to select our cam
didates for the Legislature should not
be held until September or October. This
is The Times position and if al any
time anything appears in its columns
which is apparently inconsistent with this
position. the appearance is wrong. The
Times is for two primaries and for no
conventions or ward meetings at all.

The country has been treated 10 skulls.
hatchets and dresses in the Borden case
ad nauseam, and. with it ALL so far there
has not been evidence enough adduced to
hang a fly. We are promised that the
whole case will be ended in another week.
and when it is over the public everywhere
will give a long-drawn sigh OF relief.
All that has been shown as yet is that 1t
was necessary to try some one for the
Borden murders. and Lizzie was chosen
as that person.
