GOV. CULBERsOE's SPEECH.

According to previous announce
ment, Gov. Chas. A. Culbersou of
Texas, addressed the people of Tex
arkana, on the political issues of
the day. Through the thoughtful
action OF Chairman Hardin, the
speaking took place in the Opera
House. 1t was filed to overhowing,
quite a number of ladies among the
crowd.
We have not space to give any,
thing like a resume of Gov. Culber-
sons fine speech, and will not at
tempt it; it was both eloquent and
entertaining, and elected frequent
and hearty applause. Alter dwell
ing at some length upon the nation
al Democratic platform, and dis
cussing free silver coinage, he ad-
dressed himself to state politics, and
,howed to every unpreiudiced mind
that his administration had been all
that any reasonable man could ask;
showed from the record that Pop
ulists had lied in charging upon it
extravagance-had saved over 5000
n0G in two year; state government
costs less now than part of the
time under Davis; taxes no higher
han the average for thirty years,
His exposue OF those who defame
the good name of the state by try
ing to fuss over money expended
to keep the brutal prize-Hghters out
of her borders, was grand, noble
and patriotic.
Gov. Culberson though a young
man, is talented, able and eloquent,
In him we see more than 'the son
of h s father"-for he well deserves
the high honors given him by the
people Of the great state of Texas.

met him yesterday and he exhibit

as being a likeness Of the city edi-
