Germany and Uncle Sam About tc
make Up"

WASHINGTON, March 23,-The
troubles between the United States
and Germany over the latter's ex-
clusion of American cattle has as
sumed a more pacific aspect of late
and the officials are hopeful that
the subject may be adjusted with
out further friction.
German authorities have urged
with apparent sincerity that they
had no purpose to retaliate against
the United States because of the
tariff differential duty placed on
German sugars. They also say that
they will at once end the exclusion
of American cattle, when it is es-
tablished that they are entirely
free from disease.
In their investigation they have
become entirely satisfied that the
methods of government inspection
in this country are very rigid and
effective and they do not doubt
this will lead to such a perfect
healthfullness among cattle shipped
abroad that the cause for exclusion
will disappear at no distant day.

WARD PRIMARY.

The voters of ward five, Texas
side assembled last night at Deans
store on Maple street, to select two
men to run for aldermen of that
ward Some thirty voters were
present, and this number was added
to by ten or twelve candidates
from other parts of the city, The
convention was then called to order
by Mr.. Hamp Graves, who nomlnat-
ed Maj Chance for Chairman. Mr..
Walter Chance was then selected
for secretary.
The chairman made known the
object of the meeting and the fol-
lowing gentlemen were placed in
nomination: Geo. Mcdowell. w. G,
Mathews, Hamp Graves, Phillip
Gross and W. G. Purifoy,
Inc ballot was spread and the
count made and it showed that
Geo. Mcdowell and W. G.. Mathews
were the nominees. A motion to
make their nominations unanimous
was carried
The candidates present were then
called upon for speeches.
w, A. Hargett was the first vic
tim and he started off with the
anecdote about what the "boy said
when the calf walked all over his
anatomy" Bill is a good man,
would make a good of1icer-in fact
has made a good officer, but he
makes a mighty poor speech.
Bob Burke was the next picture
thrown on the oratorical canvass.
His speech leaves us to say that he
is not a 'chip off the old block" " for
Bobs Governor" can talk with
good sense for hours and never
tire. Bob's talk was short and quite
modestly pitched.
Prudhomme was called on. Did
you ever hear "Prude" make a
speech? Well he goes about it just
like he was trying to call up some
sleepy operator a thousand miles
off, Prude is telegraph operator)
and the way he burnt the air with
his arms would cause a streak of
2ig:zag lightning to go in behind a
cloud.
Stanley Edwards was ac-
corded space on the floor to tell
about himself. Stanley showed up
with the balance, said he would
fear defeat if he had to be Judged
by the speech he would or could
make, but with all of this he made
a very creditable announcement,
John G, Watts was put on the
carpet and made an announcement
that he wanted Office and wanted
one that paid money. John held
down an alderman's job but there
being no money in that job, he was
wiling to let his neighbors fight for
the empty honors and go after
something better,
Horace Vaughan wound up the
evenings entertainment with a
good speech, Horace is a lawyer
and he held the edge on the other
candidates wheni it comes to making
speeches,
The two candidates for aldermen
are good, true men, and will be
elected,
