the convention proceeded slowly with

TTnon the conclusion of the county call
and before the ballot WAS announced
Jim Browning of DCnley county
climbed up on the rOstrum and with,

announcement of the result another
storm Of applause swept through the

Chairman Handy appointed Messrs'

CnIbersou of his election and to bring
him to the convention hall.

CulbersOn's nomination having been
made unanimous the great crowd
Gheered pasmodically IS it waited
for the appearance of the nominee,
and presently he was seen ascending
the platform with the notification

face was pale with suppressed emo.

that his appearance was the signal
for an ovation such as the Texas
Democracy seldom tenders mortal

enthusiasm. Mark Ellison was on

with suppressed emotion, delivered in
a ringing vein the following speech OF
acceptance:
Mr. President Ladies, and Gentlemen of the
Convention:
II am deeply sensible, as well of the
warm cordiality of your reception as
of the high honor and serious respon-
sibiiity of the nomination. Your gen.
erous action today has placed me un
der renewed obligations to the Demo
cratic party. Cherishing its funda-
mental principles as the basis of civil
liberty and feeling just pride in its
splendid governmental achievements,
the confidence Of its members is a
matter of qualification 1 would not
conceal under the conditions
which surround me. Remembering
the distinguished competitors for the
honor and the remarka ole campaign
through which we have passed. it
would be unnatural not to feel pro-
found appreciation of your indorse
ment. For whatever there may be in
1t OF personal character you have my
sincere Acknowledgement, and for
whatever there may be in recognition
of official conduct and promises of
future service of my party, of nv state,
you have my firm resolve, if possible
to Justify your trust. No man was
ever borne to victory by grsnder and
nooler friends, and in all the years
which may be left me. whether few or
many, their friendship and loyalty will
be the proudest memory 1 shall look
back upon. Applause.
1t is not expected, and the occasion
is not appropriate, to speak at length
on party measures, but it may not be
amiss to say that the declarations o.

by margins which lett no doubt as to
their genuineness. The program was
carried out to perfection aud only one
race, the last on the program, had
any bad features. This was the one
mile open class B, in which J, s.
Johnson appeared for the first time
during the meet. The most interest.
ing contest was in the two mile
championship, third on the program,
and the way the record was lowered
shows what a magnificent race it was.
Zeigler, the Californian, was
given an ovation at the close. He
lowered the record by nearly 8

luck today and the California racers
and their friends are jubilant tonight

Western Passenger Association.

w CobClII 1 dSSSIlSSI ASSOCldLlOIls
CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE Harvest
excursions over which the Western
Passenger association has been torn
up for the past two weeks have finally
been arranged and will be run on
Sept. II and II and Oct. 2. The rates
for these excursions will be one fare
plus So for the round trip. In addi-
ton to the lines of the Western Pas.
senger association the Union Pacific,
Missouri, Kansas ard Texas, Kansas
City, Fort Scott and Gulf, Great
Northern and Northern Poetic. have
all agreed to run excursions at the
same time and rate as agreed. The
Denver and Rio Grande, which held
out against the excursions, has not
withdrawn its objections but will not
offer any active opposition to their,
being run. Local markets have been
flooded with tickets issued by the
Texas and Pacific and the Missouri
Kansas and Texas reading from point,
in Texas and Kansas to st. Paul.
They are ironclad signature tickets
and when sold at short line rates they
allow a big scalp on the rate between
intermediate points. They are prov.
ing a gold mine for the scalpers and
are causing much trouble to the Chi
cago lines. The attention of the lines
accused of issuing the tickets has been
called to the matter and if not taken
off the market in short time and ex-
plantations offered as to how they were
placed on the market it is likely that
a boycott will be forthwith ordered
against the Southern roads by the
Western companies.

constructions. There is one express
sion in the platform though that has
no room for construction, and that is
that the whole party in the United
States has pledged itself to gold and
silver as the standard money of this
country without discrimination. We
have pledged in that first plank of the
platform to that one of gold and silver
as the standard money of this country
without discrimination, but party in,
tegrity requires that there must be
some parity between the two metals.
and it is upon the word parity that
we kick up thunder. We all
OF us swear we must have
gold and silver as the standard
money without discrimination. but
they, too, say there must be equal
purchasing power. There must be
parity and We differ on that parity.
One party says by intrinsic value.
another party Says by international
agreement and another party saws by
legislative safeguards, and that safe
guard is the one l have ALWAYS tray>

raped the convention to order. Az
Governor Hogg came upon the plat
form this was . signal for loud cheers
of "Hogg," "Hogg," and his excel
lency in response to the same came
forward and spoke as follows:
Fellow Citizens:
am proud once more to be before a
united Democracy which will always
point with triumph and success to
victory over all opposition. There
has never been the time from my
childhood until this day that
in Democratic convention, a
convention of the delegates of
the sovereign people, could con-
struct platform that would
cause me to bolt. Ihave always made
it q rule, and 1 have been serving in
the party from before WAS voter
up to this time, to stand by the will of
the majority when they gave express
sions to that will in al organized con-
vention. We cannot possibly have a
platform at any time that suits each
individual. The purpose of conven.
ton is to settle individual differences.
That we have differed upon material
issues, that we have differed upon
side issues, that we have differed upon
