Galveston, Texas, October 26EThere was
monster democratic rally here tonight
surprising anything OF the kind In many
years. The speaking by Governor Gull
bcrson and others announced to take place
at Harmony hall was preceded by long
and enthusiastic torchlight procession, led
by Chairman Weber, squad OF mounted
police and detachment of horsemen. Then
came the torch bearers and banner bear
ers, and bands Of music and all along the
line there were quantities OF colored lights
which helped TO make the streets through
which the procession passed as light as
MONDAY. There were transparcncies aud
portraits OF Bryan and Shelburnc, the con-
gressional nominee, and local candidates
and profusion OF free silver coinage mot
toes The enthusiasm OF the marchors
was echoed by the spectators on the side
walks. and lockers ON observed that there
was no indication OF tlawley here. Long
before Governor Culbersou and party ar
rived Harmony hall was packed to the
doors. The boxes were filed with ladies

hot explain that he failed to discover the
desortion until he had exhausted every cf
| font to get either an elective or an APP
uointive office within the party ranks. lie
| also claimed that he had found some peo-
| uc who were sorry that he had left the
| democratic party. but he didn't give their
names. and then proceeded to lengthy
dissertation on his war" record, which he
concluded by saying that so long as the
democratic party was a party of the peo-
ple he was a democrat but he was now a
republican. vet he failed to enlighten the
audience as to the difference between the
r, publican party OF today and the one the
general said he had been fighting more
than thirty wears.
The general then proceeded to argue
that there was no democratic party cx-
ccpt the one represented by Palmer and
Buckner. and in his opinion that ticket
could not carry a State. district. county
or precinct in the United States, aud while
he did not so state vet 1t is a reasonable

And he thereby created the impression that
he had little political respect for himself,
for the history OF Texas shows that for
tho past thirty wears there has never been
n political campaign in which the general
has no, been chasing the elusive official
pic.
The speaker then informed the audience

Galveston Texas, october 26.-The num-
Der of votes registered today sends the total
beyond 9057 and makes the number regis
tered larger by more than thousand than
ever before, with two days yet left in which
10 still further swell the total. The large
increase is said to be due in part at least.
to the naturalization of foreigners Since
the 1884 election 2I3 voters have taken out
first papers in the county and IA in the
district court. while quite a number have
gotten final papers in the same courts and
also in the United States district court.
John Golden, colorcd, who was permitted
to register last week, returned his certiti-
cate to the registrar this morning. saying
he was not entitled to vote and did not
wish to practice any fraud. lie had been
under the impression that he had reached
the required age and he certainly looked
it, but on consulting his mother and the
family Rlble. found that he still lacked
some months of being y years old. Tho reg

The Republicans of Arizona are not

dollars of Morton money MAY possibly
corrupt a few people who are always
willing ito be corrupted, but the great
masses are honest and they respect
honest men.

themselves.
The Morton-SItoddard goldbug crowd
there, Like the Allison Christy gold
bug crowd here, bottled simply because
they could not control the convention
and because lit is a PART of the con-
spiracy ito bolt whenever necessary in
order Ito embarrass the regular organ
ization and defeat The will of the Re-
publicans.
In 1.-THE YaVapal county Republican
convention if all 1.-THE precincts had
been represented there would have
been present sixty-one delegates. But
all were not represented and from
others spurious credentials were held
by the Stoddard people. The adher-
enNs of Akers numbered thirty-tw
delegates present, a majority over all
The ACTUAL Sltoddard delegates pres
emit were about sixteen with thirteen
absemtees and fraudulent proxies.
After the Srtoddard crowd had bottled
thirty-two delegates majority of
all-remained and participated in THE
election of THE regular delegation. The
Stoddard minority afterwards elected
a contesting delegation with mo more
right ITO seats lin the convention than
so many Democrats or Popu1ists.
The regular Republicans acted with
authority from beginning Ito end at all
times with a majority of THE convention
to support them, and there is not even
"a cloud ito the right of the delegates
elected by them to seats i'm 1.-THE conven-

Speaking of the water supply Of Ar
izona Professor Hoggs, Irrigation en-
gineer of the experiment station, says
in bulletin No. II: ''The great valleys
of Arizona are generally underlaid
with waiter at no great depth. While
the quantity of water is not sufficient
Ito ErrigaIte all the land above, it is
large enough to supply a great many
farms somewhat separated from one
another. The problem of pumping
this waiter depends upon the factor Of
cost of fuel. Pumping machinery may
be had aIt a moderate cost per acre, and
where fuel is cheap the expense of
operating is not prohibitive. In some
lOoalilties windmfl.s would do much of
the work of ir1tigatimg gardens and
small orchards. While the total wind
movement may be ample for the work
required, it is irregular and sometimes
lacking when most wanted. A horse

supplement- the windmill
