danger of violence Similar arrange
ments are made at the power house.
Special policemen will be sworn i'll to-
morrow, some of whom will be stationed
at the barns and power houses, and others
will be placed on the cars to protect the
new men.
The strike begun tonight will tie up
the entire electric street railway service
of the city. The several lines are
owned by one company, and every en-
ploye of the road is Il member of the
union. In addition to street employees
the electric light employees are involved
and will probably strike tomorrow. They
number 300 men and operate the only
electric lighting plant in the city. I'm
less the company is prepared to man the
power house the city will be out of light
tomorrow, except for gas.
That serious trouble is expected is evil
denced by the activity at police head
quarters and the sheriffs office. Up to
midnight about $50 special policemen had
been sworn in. The sheriff will have Il
large force of deputies on hand. The
troops will not be called out. however,
unless the local authorities find them
selves unable to protect the property of
the company.

self government at home in our own state.
! Federal questions have TO be settled Ill
| forty-four states under all the chicanery,
selfish motives and alleged corruptions of
modern politics in this country. And
they are always coming up to the front
to divert our attention from our home in
terests if we will let them do it. For
my part | am for the welfare of Texas
first and not for forgetting it at the last
| 1t is our home and our children's home.
regret to say that have seen no public
demonstration of disposition to second
my efforts at harmony by the leaders or
others of the so-called silver 7len, who
alone could have done it successfully.
| l think, however, that saw one pub
| lication in paper from the pen of a
| brother silver man who manifested his
kindness and sympathy for me by say
ing that it would be a pity to call the old
man from his retirement into public life
again. agree with him., Ills
It is V pity that Texas Democ:
racy should be thought to be on its trial
for life amidst the contending factions of
the party, and that an occasion has arisen
that made it necessary for an old man,
stricken in years, of limited means, to
be called to the front to stand forth the
chosen champion for its preservation. TO
cut the matter short, | will now say that
if the true friends of Texas will make pub
lie demand for it, l am their man to the
sacrifice of my life for Texas f necessary.
If you are III earnest about this speak
out all over this state that Texas De-
mocracy, that has built up Texas, shall
still live to perpetuate its prosperity and
greatness.
If am to be your man to stand up for
good, economical government in Texas

counties of Texas. Recollect that | nor
any other man can alone fight success
fully against the prevailing extravaganza
in government, by which the mass of the
people are oppressed for the benefit of
the few who belong to the favored
classes. / must have help and vigorous
help throughout all Texas Who is the
old, middle-aged or young man
in each of those 247 counties
who will volunteer. to let the
and the business men of all kinds know
that the war is on from now and until
next November for good government in
Texas, and to warn them to keep away
from the primaries if they wish to vote
as free men next November, to let them
know that the Dudley committee of IL to

collars to put on every one of them that
may gall their necks terribly before the

A NERNY PRUSSIAN.
Multitudes Watched Him Steer Il Skif1
Close to the Falls of Niagara.

Niagara Falls, May 81. c. Heine a
Prussian, 80 years old, made one of the
most perilous trips this afternoon that
has ever been witnessed on the Niagara
river. In canOe-shaped boat. 10 feet
in length, he sailed from the milling dis
trict through the hydraulic canal. out
into the rapids and over to within 300 feet
of Goat island, then returned without any
mishap. The river was, full of ice and
everybody thought he and his boat would
get wedged in and be carried over the
falls.
Thirty feet from the dock he put down
his paddle and took up 10-foot pole with
steel tip on it and pushed the boat out
to within stones throw of Goat island.
Here the boat seemed to be wedged on Il
rock, and rs it swung round and round
with the current the 1000 spectators ey-
pected to see it overturned and Heinp
swept over the falls. After resting about
ten minutes he started on the return trim,
This was slower work, and n painful sus-
pense hung over the crowds that watched
him. lie took Il course that seemed to
be free of ice and where the water did
not run very swiftly, and placed his craft
up stream. his chief aim seeming to be to
keep out of reach of the boiling water
that was on either side rushing with light
ming speed toward the edge of the falls.

was eXerting all his strength but if he did
suffer he gained his point, and passing the

again and slowly turned into thp nl1int

HARD LINES FOR ROWE.
The Iowa Embezzler Gets a Twelve-Yeal
Sentence in Mexico.

Mexico City, May BIN the case OF
Chester Rowe of Poweschick county
Iowa, accused of embezzling public mon
ey, Judge Aguilar last evening imposed Il
sentence of twelve years and two months
Imprisonment at Belim prison.
This case has been notable one in the
history of Mexican Jurisprudence, as
Rowe, after committing the offence, came
here and took out papers of Mexican citi.
zenship, hoping thus to evade punishment
But under the penal code an offense COM
mitted abroad and continued on Mexican
soil is punishable, and Rowe's case will
serve as a warming for criminals hoping to
find Il safe asylum in Mexico.
Lawyer LAHORE. for plaintiff said Rowe
only made himself Mexican citizen in
order to evade punishment that awaited
him in Iowa for misappropriating $685.
600. He had deserted his family, never
having sent his wife but $50 from here.
Rowe's defenders claimed that their
client was not wholly answerable for the
supposed crime committed in the United
States. The case was appealed to the
supreme court, but it is generally believed
among lawyers here that the decision will
be sustained.
Mr.. Buckston, who came from Iowa to
prosecute the case against Rowe, says
American people will warmly applaud the
decision, which stamps Mexico as a law
upholding country, determined to do JUS
