The fake story started by the
Dllla- News TO the fleet that Coke
would be . canddate for governor
and Uogg a candidate for the
senate, has been emphatically
branded az false by both Coke and
Hogg. Coke said if the statement
had bsen made by any reputable
Democra lie paper, he would have
noticed it more fully, but as it was
made by the Dallas News he con.
tents himself with denouncing it as
false, and stating that undsr no
circumstances could he be induced
TO become q candidate for governor
or accept the nomination if ten
dered MIN by the convention. The
day after its publication in the
Dallas News, this paper declared it
a fake story Matched by the politi
Cal inoubators Of the Dallas News.
Coming from the source it did, the
Dallas News, even before Coke
denied it, it was not believed by ten
per cent. of the Democrats of Texas
who read it.

A MERRY FIGHT Is ON.
Tibbals Combines Forces With

0sv. AsoSsv's New Appssst0ssss-Lew-

Psgst SQUAD Dmsgglsss.

PoRr TOWNSEND, April 5.-fSpecial. THE
Griggs- Collins combination has caused J.
C. Saunders TO prepare for visit TO Wash
jngton City in the interest of his candi-
dacy for collector Of customs. He will
leave Tor the East on April Is. Although
he entertains no doubt Of his ultimate APP
pointment, yet he considers w. H. Talbot.
Of Seattle, . formidable contestant. While
Tibbais wss his only opponent he ridi-
culed ~ waste Of time visit to the na-
tionai capital, and his friends said that
the appointment would come by rapid
transit. Since Griggs has measured swords
with the state central committee and des-
ignsted Talbot - the winning man. SauE-
ders has concluded that . visit TO his
friends and former co-workers. Lamont
and Whitney, would not be % ridiculous
after oil. He takes with him for casual
references. and for no other purposes. his
friends say, because state Endorsements in
his case would not be considered by Presi-
dent Cleveland or Secretary Carlisle. the
Endorsements from twenty-nins members
Of the state Democratic central committee.
Tibbais' friends contend that the latter
Il not out of the race IS vet. They say
that Saunders following have rendered
Tibbals the endorsement of another fat
Federal Office. but that Tibbais spurned
the proffered olive branch with contempt.
6aunders' friends deny this statement,
partly admitting, however. that they
would gladly endorse Tibba!s for any other
Office TO which he might aspire on account
Of his past service to the party. Now that
Il II apparent that Tibbals il not in the
race for collector his influence will divert
TO Griggs' slate. Under no consideration
will Tiboals and Saunders amicabiy unite
their forces. which is solely due to Tibbals'
disappointment in his contest for the
collectorShip.
