DALLAS, Tex, Oct. 10--It is pretty well
understood here that had the legislature
failed TO pass the law making a prize
fight in the state felony it was the in
tention of Governor Culberson to call out
the Texas Rangers, locate them here, and
stop the fight at all hazards. With thirty
or forty thousand men OH hand to see
the fight, including all the turbulent char
acters OF the state. such as professional
bad men, cowboys and gamblers. many
people thought that the rangers would be

Not long ago l met a young lady in
poverty whom l had previously known

the story she told me:
Father died suddenly in Washing

which he had coined money for us

GOOD GOVERNMENT.
Executive Committee of the Club
Issues an Address.

NEW YORK, Oct 13.-The executive
committee of the Good Government
club issued an address today. setting
forth their reasons for opposing the
fusion ticket They say that if the
committee of fifty had effected a
union on a non-partisan platform in
support of non-political candidates. it
would not have been acceptable to
them. The address continues:
The committee of fifty. disregarding
the resolution under which it was ap-
pointed. bought from the leaders OF
the Republicans and from the state
Democracy, by promises of money and
moral support, certain admirable ju-
dicial nominations. The other places
on the ticket they conceded to be
party spells.
so long as the honorable and
wealthy men of this city are willing
TO lend the weight of their names and
the power of their resources in such
traffic in an attempt to purchase the
government from the politicians We
shall have a corruption by whatever
party name it may be called"
The argument of the fusion ticket is
said to be the "choice of the evils"
one which was used in 1890 to gain
support for the Peoples Municipal
league. and because of which 10000
voters stayed away from the polls.
Says the address:
''The people of this city cannot
close their eyes to the fact that the
committee of fifty has made an al
lance with Plat. They remember
that last winter Platt's machine re-
fused to grant US police reform. de-
feated all efforts to reform the public
schools. derided and repudiated the
very principle Of civil service reform.

Tribune and Cannon.

Many Republicans during the day
proffered their support to help along
the cause of Democracy They said
they were willing now to cast in their
votes and vindicate the honor of Utah
and at the same time serve notice
that the utmost vigilance will be ex-
ercised in the future. These Republi-
cans looked for some comfort in the
Tribune yesterday. but they were un-
able to find it. The Tribune was ut
terly at sea. Its editorials abounded
in ifs and butts. They could be read
through and the reader still left in
utter doubt as to the position the pa
per would take. There were three edi-
torials on the page and not one agreed
with the other. In fact, the Tribune
did not dare to take any position. 1t

"Now. what DO propose to do in

that arises from it, and let another

counter this species of opposition. or

At DEMOCRATIC HEADQUARTERS.
Democrats Everywhere Endorse the
Action OF Their Lenders.


Action OF Their Lenders.
Democratic headquarters were the
scene of political activity yesterday
in spite of the character of TIE day.
From early in the morning until late
at night Democrats were coming in
to learn the latest developments on
the great question that has come up.
All united in saying that the Demo-
cratic. party had met the issue hon
estly and squarely. and in approving
of it's course.
kilograms and letters poured in from
all quarters. They were from Demo-
Gratis commencing the course of the
state committee and pledging them
selves to carry through the fight with
a determine ton to win. From San
pete came this message:
Isoa. O. W. Powers:
Sanpete Democrats oppose church
dictation in politics. They stand
ready to follow the Democratic party
in the fight for political freedom. Call
state convention and demand q public
retraction or resort to heroic measures.
Democratic County Central Committee
and Nominees.
This expressed the idea of most Of
the kilograms that came. All breathed
courage and hope, coupled with a de-
termination to gain a victory at any
cost.
In the afternoon a consultation was
held by the party leaders, among
them a number of candidates and men
from outside counties, who discussed
the policy to be pursued. 1t is gen
orally agreed that the state commit
tee today will be asked to call the
state convention held at Ogden and
have it meet here as soon as possible,
probably next Saturday or Monday.
Then it will take action on the mat
ter. What that action will be. no one
can tell, but it is thought that the
party will unitedly take a stand for
absolute disunion of church and state,
for absolute ceSSat ton OF any ecclesias-
teal influence in politics. and for
statehood, and that it will go to the
territory on this issue and win. That
seems to be the generally agreed plan
of campaign and it will secure the de-
sired result
Chairman Clark, of the Sewer coun-
ty committee; Chairman Fennemore,
of the Beaver county committee; Alma
Greenwood, candidate for treasurer in
addition to Messrs. John T. Game and
B. H. Roberts, have reached the city,
all giving endorsement of the action
taken and all ready to meet the issue
Moses Thatcher may be down this
evening. The meeting of the state
committee will be very strong, as there
are indications of heavy attendance
from all the outside counties The
Democrats are thoroughly in earnest
this time.
