Delegate Chapman said the only
question at issue was whether the
convention could nominate as coed
men today as they could two months
hence. Ii thought they could.
Delegate Whitman said ground
should be plowtd before it was
planted. Clark, he said, came out
for governor too early, and spent
his force before the campaign was
half over.
Delegate w. T. Glasgow said
there was nothing worse than pro-
crastination. Delay was failure,
and success would come from eff

Ed. WACO NEWS: Dear Sir-I
notice from present prospects Waco
will make able efforts to secure the
next state convention. Some time
since our Tol Buie was in Dallas
and a confab took place between
him and "Roust about dn Dallas
News, lin reference to the place for
holding the next state convention.
Tol expressed the sentiments of the
people of this section as being in
favor of Dallas. | must say that
Mr., Buie's statement was wholly
imaginary and, like many other
fabulous articles that have hereto.
fore appeared in the Dallas News,
entirely void of foundation. / will
vouch for Upshur county favoring
Waco in preference to Dallas az the
proper place for the next state con.
vention. Dallas has shared enough
of such honors at present, and we
think your prosperous city and
enterprizipg citizens are Justly en-.
titled to the honor this time.
Respectfully,
j. B. HILL,
Chairman of Upshur County Demo.
cratic Executive Committee.

GRASS ON THE MooN.-Louis Gath
man, New York astronomer, last
Friday night exhibited a model of
his sectional lens telescope to a party
of friends, and reasserted that he had
discovered apparent signs of vegeta-
ton on the moon August II. He
said: about 9 O'Clock in the even
ing of August II, in sweeping with
the telescope the face of the moon |
saw a spot of livid green in the midst
of the mountains in the valley of
Sinus Roris. Green is a color hithcr
unknown among the shades of the
moon. thought there might be an
error somewhere, but after changing
the eye-piece six times it was there
each time, a well-defined space Of
green. The idea of its being an error
of the telescope is out of the ques-
ton, because when allowing the
moon to pass through the whole field
of the glass that strange spot kept
stationary on the moon with every
magnifying power used. Seven per-
sons besides myself saw it, and it is
not to be suspected that all were
color blind.

1t is said the Chinese treasury is
empty and the government has the
greatest difficulty in securing the
barest necessities for the army. In
addition there is a strong movement
against the Emperor, and he may
find himself thrown out before the
war ends. One of the weakest points
of China is it's inability to prevent
internal dissension. 1t is impossible
to make all work together, even

Lieut.. H. c. Duval, the secretary of

European outing recently he com
pared the railroads of the old and

Those who have not been abroad

SUICIDE AT PRoCToR.-Mrs Aristo
Franzoni drowned herself Sunday
morning by Jumping into the river
near the covered bridge. In the early
part of last week her little girl was
taken sick and died. On Saturday
she was buried. The sudden shock
nearly crushed the mother, although
her kind country folks did all they
could to comfort her. She acted
strange, almost wild at times, and
wanted to go where the girl baby
was. Mr.. Franzoni kept her as quiet
as he could during the night and
sometime after 4 O'Clock, as she
seemed to be resting quietly, he
dressed himself and went to the
kitchen, where he remained until he
heard one of the children asking
where mamma was. He Immediately
suspected something wrong and COM
menced a search about the house, but
failing to find any trace of her there
thought she must have gone to the
cemetery. Mr.. Franzoni and his
aged father went there but as they
did not see her or any signs of her
having been there, they returned and
when near the bridge saw her a few
feet away from the shore lying in
shallow water dead. A handkerchief
was bound tight over her eyes. The
funeral was held at the Catholic
church Tuesday.

President Cleveland has amnestied
and pardoned all offenders against
the marriage laws of Utah, on evil
dence that members and adherents of
the Mormon church are now gener-
ally abstaining from polygamy. This
restores them to citizenship, and is
undoubtedly intended as an act of
political significance, preliminary to
the admission of the territory as a
state at the next session of congress.
1t is doubtful, however, whether the
Mormons are now in a majority in
the territory. The Gentiles have
found Utah a goodly land to live in,
and in the race of colonization and
settlement they can outnumber the
Mormons by a big majority. Cod
ding the old sinners against the mar
riage laws is a dangerous political
experiment under the circumstances.

fort Than Allen Populated.

The arrival of the four troops of
the Third United States Cavalry at
Fort Ethan Allen, the new u. 5.
military post, last Friday, makes
it the centre of peculiar interest just
now. All four troops came from Fort
Riley, Kansas, and are familiar with
the hardships of Western frontier
soldier life. They were ordered to
go to Chicago during the strike last
July and were on duty there about
three weeks after which they went to
Evanston, H., where they INDUCED
in field manouvers for about four
weeks, and from there they were
ordered 20 Fort Sheridan, H.. to
await orders to remove to Fort
Ethan Allen. A year ago last June
these four troops went up to Fort
Riley from the Texas border, and
early in September, 1898, they were
the four troops of the Third United
States Cavalry that were among the
loops ordered to the Cherokee strip
at the time of that great opening
there. They stand very high in mill
tary circles, and a cordial welcome
was given the officers and garrison
by some of Vermont's dignitaries last
Tuesday morning. Gov. Woodbury.,
H. W. Aller, Mayor Van Patten,
Louis Turk, Gen. w. w. Henry, j. L.
Southwick, C. S. Forbes, DR.. 0. W.
Peck, H. B. Carpenter and j. E.
Tracy we're among the number and
they were shown around the fort by
the officers in command. T. s. Peck,
as adjutant and inspector-general, V.
n. g., welcomed them to the state;
Burlington's Mayor Van Patten and
President Buckham welcomed them
to the city, speaking of the benefit
the city and state and the post might
be to each other. The Inequalities
of the occasion were well rendered by
Major Morris and other officers.

WHAT HILL Is. - The one thing
which Hill dwelt on at length was
the repeal of the law which provided
in a partial manner for honest cleo
tions. That was, in the eyes of this
machine trickster, a glorious achieve
ment. No man in the United States
has profited more from dishonest
elections than David b. Hill. He
defended Tammany hall when it was
under the control of Tweed and he
has ever since been a defender of
Tweed's methods. He was the ring
leader and chief conspirator in the
Maynard thefts. 1t is fitting, there
fore, that he should make the repeal
of the only federal act that made any
provision for honest elections the
one great Democratic achievement
