Thew Will Go.

General Openheimer was yesterday
morning in receipt of letter from
Houston notifying him that the excur-
sion rate to that city from Austin on
San Jacinto day would be 1 cent a
mile each way. This rate suits every
body, and the Governors Guard will
go, about 40 strong. to attend the San
Jacinto day festivities, accompanied,
possible, by Generals Openheimer,
Mabry and Roberts and several other
staff officers. Quite a number of priD
vate citizens will also go.

A Young Student Captured In the Act
of Robbing His Fellows.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Ind, March 49,
Church circles in Charlottesville are
greatly agitated by startling sensa-
ton at the Young Mems Christian
Association building. For nearly two
years the members have been suffer
ing at the hands of thief, who regu-
larly went through their clothes in
the dressing room during the hours
of drill. Large sums of money and
valuables were frequently taken and
until last night all efforts to
capture the thief proved futile
so annoying did the trouble grow,
however, that constant and secret
watch was kept on the dressing
rooms. Last night while about 20
students OF Wabash college were IN
the drill hall, Paule Shale, of the
Freshman class, was captured in the
act of rifling the pockets OF the clothes
hung up. He is a prize student and
stands ut the head of his class and is
an officer in the college Y NJ. G. A.
He also holds the state records for
several athletic events, He has con.
Iessed the crimes and will be expelled
from school.

Colonel McGaughey Says he Will Not Be a

1t will readily be seen from the sub.
Joined letter that Colonel McGaughey
wants no more of politics at present
and gracefully Acknowledges his
thanks to his many friends for their
support in the past and assures them
he will ask no more of them in the

GENERAL LAND OFFICE,
AUSTIN, March IS.
WILL RETIRE AT CLOSE OF TERM.
Personal ambition should be laid
aside at time like this. The party
is in the throes over great IN sfOrtune
that occurred at Houston during the
last state convention. Patriotism
should dominate every Democratic
impulse and control every interest in
repairing the breach made in the front
ranks Ut our great party i'll Texas.
No man should be barrier
to the process of healing now being
tOstered by the two Wigs soon to
meet at Dallas. Measures alone
should be advocated in the harmony
meeting and the panacea will need no
man to effect cure, Peace in the
party family is to be devoutly hoped
for. l favored peace Immediately
after the election returns were known,
contendiug that the victor could with
much propriety offer the olive branch
and fear no evil. Upon this line pro
ceedea to indorse worthy men for fed
eral positions regardless of how they
voted in the last state election, pro.
vided they voted for Cleveland for
president of the United states. This
was the only test of Democracy de-
sired. The vacant Clerkships in the
general land office were divided be-
tween the two factions of the party
with this test Of Democracy alone. l
am glad that the above course was
taken thus early. Anything reason
able to heal the party breach.
Realizing that fair division of
patronage between the two wings is
still, if not necessary, certainly mag.
unanimous on the part OF the stronger
faction, now kindly ask my friends
in the state that my name be not pre-
Sented to the next Democratic conven.
tion for denomination. The party has
been good to me and [ can afford to
make the campaign for party glory
and ask no tavOrs. Democratic bat
ties have been waged by me since boy
mood days and | am ready to cover
the field again. l have never been
defeated in any campaign and have
no fears should L run. My solicita-
tiOns are stronger now from all parts
OF the state than ever before in any
campaign, especially so from the wee
where [ have had most to do
with the people; but 1
yield to the dictates of
party glory. My mind reverts to the
dark days of fratricidal strife, and a
period Immediately following the
great war between the North and the
South. Democracy stood in the breach
then for the people and will do so
again if necessary. Party ties are as
strong as life itself with me. could
not be anything but a Democrat and
never will be.
Thanks to all who have supported
me in the past and especially SO to
those who now urge me to run again
The office is in good conditions; the
clerks are efficient, honorable and
worthy, and | will always be proud
of the great land office of Texas.

AN ELECTRIC LINE.
The Dummy Line Will Change Hands Soon
and Be Made an Electric Line.

Mr.. E, j. O'Burns of Dallas is in the
city. He is here for twofold purpose
one of which is to bid in the name of
firms he represents on the proposed
electric light plant the city is now con.
templating. Another reason for Mr..
OBurns' presence in the city is that as
representative of certain firms he de -
sires the board of public works and
city council to consider favorably a
proposition he has made to take tue
dummy line off the hands of the pres
ent lessseS and assume the manage.
ment of the same. He agrees to assume
the uneNpired lease otthe dummy line
