JUDGE CLARK'S DEFENSE OF
CLEVELAND.

The speech of Judge George Clark at
noon yesterday before the sound money
Democratic convention contained just
and ringing eulogy to the adminstra-
ton of Grover Cleveland and to the per-
sonal and political integrity of the man
himself. He showed by facts that Cleve-
land had broken down the sectional bar
rers that had prescribed the south for
thirty long years, and by his appoint
ment to offices of the highest trust and
honor of the old confederate Democrats,
Herbert, secretary of the navy, Smith of
Georgia to a cabinet position, sending
he courts of France and st. James
southern Democrats, Breckenridge to
Russia, and Fitzhugh Lee to Cuba with
others he could not be expected to re-
member; thereby extending the right
hand of fellowship to Democrats Of the
south and welcoming them into full
rights of the party.
But, he said while every Democrat,
and all the world was informed of Mr..
Cleveland's position on all the current
questions, Cleveland going so far as to
announce them before a single state had
spoken, and although he was elected by
large majority, the Democrats Of the
south had turned upon him and denounc-
ed and villiied him for doing exactly
what he had informed them he would
do before he was nominated.
He also gave striking account of
Cleveland's efforts and success standing
alone, in defending the honor and credit
of the country He said free silver was
in line with the Populistic sentiment that
had exhibited itself for three years, and
the credit of this country was Populistic
and must result in anarchy. He made
it very plain to the convention that it
was their duty to- save the Democracy of
Texas from free silver and Populistic
heresies by the organization of the party
upon its old principles of a sound cur
rency and tariff for revenue only.
Judge Clark soon touched the deep
magazine of feeling of his auditors, and
it exhibited itself in frequent and pro-
longed applause. 1t was a sound and
wholesome Democratic speech and was
thoroughly enjoyed as such speeches are
now rare. Judge Clark's recital of the
favors that Mr.. Cleveland had extended
to the south emphasized his assertion
that man who would denounce Cleve-
land was unworthy of the name of a
Democrat.

TWO CONVENTIONS THE SAME
DAY AND IN THE SAME CITY.

Austin has demonstrated its ability to
handle two conventions at the same time
and make the members of both com
Portable and happy There were two
Democratic conventions in session yester-
day in this city, an anomoly rarely en-
pcricnced by any city, OF course both
of them thought that their particular con-
vention was the genuine article of Dem
ocracy dyed in the wool, all wool and
yard wide. 1t is singular how men
of the same political training can so
radically differ as these two conventions
differ and both call themselves Demo-
cratic.
We are satisfied that there is some
occult moral sense of good and of evil
permcating the atmosphere and intlu
cncing the minds of men either in favor
of the good or the evil Men can there
fore seemingly be just as honest and con-
scientious in the evil as in the good; not
only on account of these two opposing
principles applying to the minds of men
for championship, but in one, which we
think the evil, there is an inducement of
reward. knowing these ethical facts to
be true and considering how strong the
influence of reward is, we believe we
would be justified, without another rea
son, in locating the evil with the class
of men who are looking for and expect
TO realize substantial political reward.
Without attributing any other unwor-
thy motive, and we do not believe polit-
zeal aspirations are unworthy motives,
we are inclined to believe the good is
with the fellows who expect no reward,
but who are intent on the preservation
of the integrity and autonomy of the
Democratic party and what they believe
will result in their country's good. If
precedents Of principle give the right of
the name of Democracy to either of these
conventions it would, we say unhesita-
tingly, go with those upon whose banner
is inscribed Sound money"
However there is not so much polit-
zeal evil in the free silver Democrats
that Austin can not give them hearty
welcome and royal entertainment.
While outside of the office holders Ans
tin would poll a two-thirds sound money
Democratic majority, they give to the
free silver wing the same kind of well

This was done to the end that the full
proceedings of the two conventions held
in Austin this week might go out at the
earliest possible time. The full proceed
ings of both conventions will be found in
this issue 1t is for you to judge from
these proceedings and the platforms put
forth by the two conventions, how you
will shape your political conduct this
year.

The arrival Of the steamer was the
n great excitement which broke the
monotony Of life at the parsonage. The
family would have been on the pier In

akimbo and sleeves rolled up TO their d.

their hands, stood in . row in front ct

Hulda felt that this was In led for

"But, father" she resumed after
awhile, lifting her head with subdued
defiance, "have You not frequently said
to both me and to Fritz that II you SOW

do not myself pretend to have solved all
the riddles Of creation, bat my conf
dence in Gods justice and love makes
mo content to wait patiently until the
day when all that is hidden shall be re-
vealed."
As the weeks went by, without any
approach on Mr.. Falck's part, Hulda
found that there was no reason what
ever for maintaining such q strictly de-
fensive attitude toward him. Nay, 90
curious is the feminine heart, she began
sven to cherish q dim resentment to-
ward him for not Offering her the
chance to vindicate her independence.
She had expected to fight a battle and
10 display a truly heroic spirit in repel-
ling his advances. And here he was,
bowling to her three times q day-at
breakfast, dinner and supper-with dis.
tant courtesy and being apparently no
more aware Of her presence than he was
OF that Of the l~4-year-old MALTA. The
few remarks which he volunteered were
addressed to her father and mother, and
when n day she asked him for the
salt he handed it to her with o blunt
directness which was almost insulting.
It was just the way he would have
handed it to Fritz To say that her self
respect suSered under this treatment ia
to put it mildly. With every day that
went by she felt more and more out
ragged at what she styled Mr.. Falck's
ungentlemanliness and his utter want

love affair? Had he been Tilted and
