COLORED DOMINATION.

O0L0RED DOMINATION.
The true inwardness OF the fight
that the colored cohorts made for
election Of N. Wright Quincy as
temporary chairman of the Austin
convent ion, is only understood in
the light Of the necessity Of a COM
mittee on credentials that would
do the bidding of the colored boss.
This temporary craftsmanship &C.
complished this business, and
once that was settled Quincy stood
with his foot on the party and
ruled the convention alone. When
he came into the leadership of the
state twelve years ago the republic
cans OF Texas were over $4,000
strong, today there are not
nearly that number in the state,
the last election for president
showing a falling off of 10000
in the face of the immense republi-
can immigration into the state in
the past ten years. There is no
Disgusting the fact that the saliva
tion of the republican party in this
state demands that the white
voters combine solidly against
negro domination in the conven-
tions. There is no population OF
the rights Of the colored man to
vote as he pleases and have his
vote counted in this thing, it is
only a declaration on the part Of
the intelligence and business brains
of the republicans Of Texas Of their
own independence Of colored con-
troll in the conventions Of the
party; this and nothing more. The
strength of this Twelfth district,
the only republican one in the
state, lies in the fact that it Is out
side of the colored belt, and that
its vote is almost exclusively
white one. Let this fact have its
due weight among those who are
in earnest for the redemption and
increase Of the republican party in
the south. The protection element |

conventions a horde Of ignor-
ant and purchsseable voters to
do their bidding for money or
under the pressure Of color appeals.
While the colored voters OF the |
state flock to the conventions to
control them, and rally round the
democratic candidates at the polls,
there is no salvation for the re-
publican party outside of strong
white combination. Then let the
tug OF war come and in this state

Thursday. Dec. 10. '96.


Dear Sir Liverpool cables
were of a discouraging charac-
ter, consequently our market
opened = to 3 points lower.
Shortly after a slight reaction
set in and prices remained
steady until after the bureau re-
port was read. The general
average yield given by the bu-
reau, as compared to last year,
was 1852 per cent, or 15.2 in-
crease over the yield of last
year, which would indicate on
the face of the returns a crop
of about 8,25O,OO0 bales. To
this, however, the trade always
adds s to 10 per cent for errors
and, therefore, they construed
the report as pointing to a crop
of about 100000 bales. The
body of the report stated, THAT
many correspondents say the
yield has exceeded expectations,
owing to the large acreage and
the late and dry fall favoring
the maturing of the top crop"
Of course, the tenor of the re-
port was much better than an
ticipated, and this caused heavy
liquidation on the part of those
favoring action, which soon
forced prices down - points
from the top. Near the close
shorts covering ran prices up 5
points, thereby making the net
loss on the day q points.
After such a sharp and steady
decline it would seem that re-
action is in order. The future
course, however, will depend
entirely on the movement and
spot demand. We think, how
ever, that cotton is compara-
lively cheap. and believe prices
are near the bottom.
Yours very truly,
FL. & B. BEER.

would give us an improved water service

a benefit to our town. We have an emp
