silver defiance speech there, by a cor
respondent OF the Galveston-Dallas
News and asked to give his views in
regard to Governor Hogg's position.
His attention was also called to the
threat made by a gentleman very
near Governor Hogg to silence Mills
and himself, and keep them from
talking Democratic and honest money.
George Clark said: "This conspi-
racy against the Democratic party has
been lncubating ever since the Dallas
convention, and it may be well that it
mas eliminated so soon. Fooled in
tnelr purpose to commit the party au-
thentically to the heresy of debased
money, they began as soon they got
over their daZed condition to beat
about IN order to find some getting out
place. They have at last determined,
ana this determination seems to be
general with them, to defy both plat
forms, national and state, to denounce
Oil democrats who stand equally for
the, declared principles of the party as
oolters and heretics, and they insist
that we must not speak to the people
because we are tracking heresy, L
need hardly say that this phase Of the
canvass is most remarkable. Boilers
from their platforms, they denounce
us as boilers. With Punic faith they
their contention to the
party in convention assembled, and
when the party decides against them
on fair test they claim that the de-
clsion is in their favor. Ii they want
war they can have it, but they must
hunt up another flag We love the
old Democratic flag and we intend TO
take care of il. 1t is our flag, and no
Populist can fight under 1t. We have
gone to the limit in the harmony bus
mess. We have asked for peace and |
have got war, it seems. II the wreck |
must come we intend to preserve the |
principles of true Democracy in this
state, no matter who gets hurt"
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1894-10-11
THE CONTRETEMPS OF THE
CANVASS.

The Democratic campaign is about
to take on the same conditions as the
campaign in Georgia, with perhaps the
same result, towit: a reduction of the
Democratic majorities.
Speaker Crisp and Hoke Smith
opened the Georgia canvass on the
same day and at the same place.
Crisp advocated the free coinage of
silver and Smith advocated the lin
tied coinage, and the result is a re-
duced Democratic majority in Geor-
gia. Texas can better afford reduc.
ton Of Democratic majorities than
Georgia. The Democratic majority in
Texas has been termed brutal" and
it may do the party good to narrow its
margin, certainly if it is done by
teaching true economic principles
Culberson, the other day at Goliad,
opened his gubernatorial canvass by
announcing his adhesion to silver at a
16 to 1 ratio, while William Henry
Crane took about the same argument
pursued by Senator Mills in his speech
on Thursday night at the CAPT.
tol building. Mills rays it is
not party question but a busi~
ness question, aud he cited the fact
that while Thomas Jefferson and AL
exander Hamilton never agreed Oh a
political question that they did agree
upon the silver coinage question. Its
discussion therefore between even
Democrats will do no harm, but it is
rather unfortunate that Mr.. Culoerson
who, if elected governor will have no
influence upon the monetary policy of
the federal government, antagonized
Mr.. Crane, who is running for con~
gress and is naturally more Interested
in the question and more earnest in
educating his district in sound tinau-
cial policies. Let the discussion 90 on.
No man who stands on the national
and state Democratic platforms is
afraid of discussion. Quite otherwise,
they invite it because they believe
these platforms contain the true and
philosophic financial theory and they
want all the lights turned on it, but
it would be we'll hereafter to avoid
such a contretemps as that which
CulbersoL and Crane STUN bled iuto
the other day at Goliad.

THE SPEECH OF ROGER
MILLS.

To cav that the speech maue ny
Senator Mills Thursday night at the
capitol was a thorough, sound and
able Democratic speech would not
fully describe it's entire scoops ana
force. 1t was not only profound
and able Democratic speech, it was
phiIosoph based upon the sound
est principles of political economy and
enforced by logical reasoning that
challenged successful controversy.
There ia no man in all this broad land
who can successfully traverse the ar
guments made by the Texas senator.
There was another thing about 1t,
il came from the brain OF broad and
com prehensive statesman whose heart
was glowing with the love OF the peo-
pie whom he represented and the de"
sire for their good and prosperity.
Then, too, no one could have listened
to his speech and not have recognized
that his patriotism was as broad as
the whole country, and that he is
bold, fearless and honest man. Each
proposition was clearly set forth and
subjected to the most stringent rules
of logic, widening and deepening into
asyllogism impregnable to assault.
The whole context of the speech was
compact and admirable, dovetailing
one subject into another with sll the
ease of q master mechanic. Perhaps
the most remarkable thing in the
speech was the wonderful mass OF
statistical facts that he evidently drew
from without q reference to notes;
dates and figures running into the
millions were used from memory down
to the most infinitesmsl fraction.
Mr.. Mills has evidently devoted the
best powers of a strong and analytical
mind to the study of questions no
discussed, and the result is an argu'
ment strong and sweeping onward
like mighty river bearing every
thing valuable upon it's broad bosom.
Roger @. Mills is great man in the
highest sense of the term, and he has
forced the recognition of that fact,
not only upon the people of this coun-
try and the members of the United
States senate, but upon the thought
of the cultivated and educated world
where mental strength is admired
and valued. He is quoted
as high authority, especially
upon the tariff, by orators and
economic scientific writers of Europe,
and not alone the state he loves 30
we'll, the Lone Star state, but the peo-
pie of this whole country are proud OF
him as the peer of any msn, any
where. Perhaps there are no two men
more alike than Grover Cleveland and
Roger Q. Mills. Besides being polit-
ical dromios, they are sound Demo-
Gratis, able and honest men, animated
by the highest motives, the greatest
good to the greatest number of their
fellow citizens.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1894-10-11

The Hon. Henry Mcdonald of Paris
after saying that it was unfortunate
that Mr.. Culberson should feel called
upon to uusettle what WAS deliberately
settled at the Dallas convention after
the most remarkable contest ever wit
messed in any convention in Texas by
boiling the platform but standing
manfully by the nomination, adds:
"After SO many years Of debauchery
of public sentiment In this country by
the silver kings of the West and the
time serving politicians OF the South
It was a refreshing spectacle to see the
Texas Democracy place itself On rec
ord as it aid at Dallas in favor OF hon
est money and against the free and
unlimited silver coinage lunacy, and
|. for one, am not willing that its
brave and patriotic action shall be be.
Titled or miscpnstrued without enter
ing my protest. Whatever may be
said by politicians who think more
about catching votes than they do
about defending party action 1T is alb
solutely certain that the National
Democracy and the Texas Democracy
are opposed 10 the free and unlimited
coinage OF silver at any ration under
existing conditions. so that Judge
Nugent was right when he said IN
his opening speech at Grand view
that there was now but one free all.

MAYNARD as a cats paw to steal the
state senate by criminal suppression
of the returns from Duchess county
Hill can get along without the Post
No man is worth cent as a politician
until his enemies are almost as num-
erous as his friends. The Post says
Hill is the most dangerous man in
public life, and adds, "He is a dare
devil and delights to be considered
such" Somehow a daredevil politi'
clan is popular with the American
voter. That Hill is the boldest poll
tician in this country there CAN be no
dispute, and it may be added the most
successful.

JUDGE REAGAN'S WARNING.

Judge Reagan says he warns certain
orators and writers who declare that
the Democratic party is opposed to
the free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer at ratio of 16 to that they will
weaken the party. Judge Reagan
warned the members Of the state
Democratic convention and yet, in
the very face of his warning, the ma.
jority report was adopted, ig-
noring the doctrine of the
unlimited coinage of silver at
that ratio and declaring in favor of an
honest dollar. So emphatic in the
latter light did Judge Reagan regard
the majority report that he withdrew
as a candidate for governor on that
platform, showing that he believed
then that the Democracy of the state
were opposed to the Populist idea of
free coinage. Now he warns certain
orators and writers that they had bet
ter deceive the people by not
telling the truth about it. Judge
Reag ms position is inconsistent and
illogical, If for the mere purpose OF
getting certain gentlemen into Office SC
that their personal friends may STAR
the spoils cit is necessary for Demo-
cratic orators and writer's to misrep-
resent the position of the party, we
are pushed to hard straights indeed
to get our fingers in the pie.
1t is the duty of certain orator:
and writersn to combat the
heresies of the Third party, ont
of the most dangerous of which is, tn,
free and unlimited coinage of silver a
any ratio that does not assure tn,
parity of the metals. Gentlemen
teaching the Populist doctrine on thi
subject had better take warning tina
false representation of the doctrines o
the Democratic party are dangerous t.
its standing as an honest and truthful
party.

The Pops who want the government

READ Mills out of the party, for
sooth. There are some men who are q
little too big to be read out of any.
thing they choose to take an interest
in. Read such men as Mills ana
Clark out of the party for the benefit
of giving more rope to certain other
smaller men, and you will pretty soon
read the party out of power.
