IT MUST BE STOPPED.
Appeals to Them to Save the
State Shame.
All Dallas, Including a Minister,
Wants the Fight.

ST LOUIS. Oct. IA special to the
Post Dispatch from Austin, Tex, says:
The Texas legislature met at noon today
with a quorum present. The governor,
in his message, reviews the laws against
prize fighting in Texas, calling attention
to the errors therein. and closes by say
ing:
''All persons have been given notice
that the Corbett- FIzsimmons exhibition
would not be permitted; that whatever
has been done Dy its projectors was with
full responsibility for the consequences.
"The public interests req uire that this
exhibition especially should be suppress
ed. Discountenanced by Mexico and the
territories, outlawed aud driven from
evary state. it is proposed to assemble
horde of ruffians and gamblers and offer
this state this commanding insult to
public decency Against it the instincts
and pride of the people revolt, and your
prompt and resolute action will spare
them this iguominy and shame"
He recommends law making prize
fighting without gloves felony. There
is a strong lobby here from Dallas and
leaders OF it claim to have votes enough
in the house to defeat the emergency
clause. There are only three senators
opposed to the emergency clause.
Several bills, strictly anti-prize fight,
were introduced in both houses and an
adjournment was had till tomorrow
morning.

Five South Carolina Negroes
Issue an Address.
Protest Against Intention Of
Constitutional Convention.
ENTIRE SUPPRESSION.
It Means to Take the Last
Power of Negro.
DiSfranchised 'Tis NOwPrOpoSed
to Make Him POwerless.

New YORK, Oct IA special to the
World from Columbia, s. c. says: Five
of the six negro delegates to the South
Carolina Constitutional convention
which proposes to disfranchiss blacks,
have Joined in an address to the North,
through the World. The address SAYS,
among other things:
"The seventh constitutional conven-
ton called in South Carolina is in ses-
sion. 1t has been called for the pur-
pose Of dealing with the negro problem.
Those who have advocated its
Assem- bling have been explicit in their
declaration of the purposes to be accom-
plished the disfranchisement of the
negro aud the elimination of him en-
tirely, not from participation-n election
for he has not, since 1886, had any show
at all in any of the elections held in the
state, but of the posi- blity of the negro
uniting with the conservative Demo
cratic faction and thus oust from place
and power those now in control of the
government
THE chief obstacles in the way of ac-
complishing what is desired are the 14th
and 10Th amendments to the federal con
stitution This difficulty removed, there
will be plain sailiug.
The Hon. Benz amin r Tillman, who
is the head and front OF the movement,
has net been at all palitic or hypocriticaI
as to his intentions He has said thai
his object is to disfranchise as many ne
groes AS he can, wishout disfranc chising
a single white man except for crime"

so CHILDLIKE AND BLAND.

Mayor Fellows is really so innocent
aud SO childlike that we dc not like to
strike back at his foolish, ridiculous and
untrue statements, appearing from day
to day in some other papers. 1t was
time to look after the sanitary affairs
of the city weeks ago as the
JOURNAL advised his honor. We don't
care much about personalities-par
ticularly untrue ones. The JOURNAL
however is anxious to see quarantine

in health departments will save many

What is he going to do abontit? Write
another card in the Capital!
So far AZ our friend DIR. Hibben is
concerned it is news to US that he wants
to be city physician. We supposed he
had his hands too full with his position
as head physician of the Modern Wood
men and his private practice to take a
fifty dollar month place. Ii he
wants the place. however. and can get
it is all the same to the JOURNAL We
might commend the mayor for that kind

would criticise him the next day if we
thought he deserved it. There isn't
an officer in the gift of the mayor that
will muzzle this papers utterances or
secure its cemmendation of the wrong.
| We are sorry for the truth of our mayor s
story, that DIR. Hibben was un-
able 20 be present at a very
pleasant wedding some years ago.
The mayor, in his haste to rush inc
print, aad politics. and slowness in per
forming SEINE of the functions of his Of

ted criticism SO that it looks to him like
malice. Now that the mayor is joining
with the JOURNAL to stamp out diphther

NEW YORK, Oct IA movement was
put on foot to revive the committee of
seventy or to create a similar body to
take steps necessary to bring about
union of all anti -Tammany forces. This

The chances for success were consider
ed good by those who took the initiative
DR.. c. Fl. Parkhurst has telegraphed as

at present at Stamford, Conn:
"Our only chance Is to hold mass
meeting and create new committee of

DIR. Parkhurst is confident that a

"Youthfcl enthusiasm" and excessive
zeal" EIe says that the good govern
