Morton is coming to the front as
a candidate for the highest honors
at the hands of the st. Louis con-
vention. He has the friends and
the influence and the money TO
make the most of the opportunity.
In addition to this in himself and
in his experience and in his record
he is the peer Of any Of the great
men who have been named for the
place. His candidacy will be a
formidable one.

The candidates are now in the
field in the Eleventh district and
only ten working days between
this and the election. The nomin-
alton OF Luther A. Lawhon by the
populists at Beeville completes the
nominations. 1t will be a three
cornered fight in which Brewster,
the republican nominee, ought to
win on the merits OF his placing.
The populists declined their oppor-
tunity to make any declaration on
the tariff, and the democratic can
didate, no matter what his person
al predictions, is committed with
his party to the destructive free
trade policy that has brought ruin
on Western and Southwestern
Texas. Mr.. Brewster stands square.

tective platform which is the only

LINING UP FOR ST. LOUIS.

II @'@A'N - Wv
This week will show the COM
plexion of the approaching repub-
jlican national convention at st.
Louis a little more clearly than 1t
has yet appeared. The state con-
ventions that are to be held will
| each throw their own light on the
page of that approaching conven-
ton. Morton is coming squarely
to the front as the candidate Of his
state, no mean factor in the con-
vention of the nation, and he will
be announced on a square gold
platform. Reed finding that Nc
Kinley has come out as a square
bi-metalist will take the other side
of the question and announce as a
gold monometalist. This will be
no particular advantage to him, as
his previous leaning to silverism
when he thought there was politi-
cal advantage in it will not serve
to assure the country Of his solid.
ity. Of political conviction. Not
only so, it leaves Morton the
real candidate OF the east on
the gold platform, and in the
end is more certain to draw the
Reed support to Morton then to
turn the Morton following to Reed.
New York is dead in earnest in
presenting the name Of Morton,
with the determination to force it
to the end. Mr.. Morton is we'll
qualified to take up the contest,
and will prove a formidable candi-
date. That he already stands
third in the race, il not second, is
not to be successfully disputed.
He has had large experience, has
knowledge of financial affairs of
large Importance, is acquainted by
actual experience as vice president
with national affairs, has back of
him the richest state and the one
with the largest influence and vote
of any OF the states OF the nation,
is immensely wealthy, has the
| finest social position that the coun-
try affords, outside Of the actual
head of the nation. He is a
genial man and well versed
in the arts Of pleasing and con-
Citation. He is formidable
candidate and will make his i'm
preston at st. Louis. He will be
ably presented to the republicans
of the country and will make it in
tereSting for the best of his COM
petitors for the supreme honor of
presidential candidate for the re-
publican party. He seems to be
the real candidate of the east.
Allison and Mckinley will divide
the west between them, and this is
about the situation. Any one of
these distinguished republicans
would be acceptable to the country,
and in case the contention between
them becomes so strong that none
of them can win the nomination,
then there is that old true and
once tried republican, eX-President
Harrison, who is between the fires,
centrally located as to geOgraph-
ical position and by no means a
weak candidate in his own per-
sonal following should he so pre-
sent himself. His chances the
LIGHT has noted months since.
The conventions of this week, with
those already held, will show
something, approximately, Of the
situation and they will show Nc
Kinley strongly in the lead.
The candidates are now in the
field in the Eleventh district and
only ten working days between
this and the election. The nomin-

A SUDDEN DEATH.

At 4 10 this afternoon the town
was shocked when it was learned
that Mrs. Stucke, who is so we'll and
favorably known, by all Brownsvil-
lians that she had suddenly died.
Her death was sudden and very
unexpected she being in apparent
good health at o'clock, at which
time she left for the cemetery to de-
corate the grave of her beloved
daughter, Belle, today being the
anniversary Of her death.
Mrs. Stucke returned from the CO.
netery at four O'Clock in a fainting
condition and shortly after being
lifted from the carriage breathed her
last.

couNcILs HARMONY
special to Tn GERALD.

San Antonio, Tex, Jan. 81
The Express Austin correspon-
dence this morning has an in
terview with Major Tom Brack-
enridge in which the latter saye:
Whatever the Texas demo-
Gratis may hereafter do, they
should at least council harmony
this year Conservatism should
rule both the meeting of he
executive committee and that
Of the sound currency men.
We don't want any split in the
democratic ranks this year, and
the man who councils such is
no democrat / myself enter
tain views on Certain questions
that do not coincide with those
of other Democrats, but | am
willing to abide by the action
Of the convention, for | regard
the party as greater than any
question that may be brought
up. No matter how many peo-
pie may take a handspring like
Barney Gibbs and quit the
party, the party will still live.
1--WE have got to b. conserva
tive, though, and force the fan
atics ane. disorganizers TO take
a back seat. To do this, / think
it would be good idea for
number Of conservative demo-
Gratis to attend both the meet
ings alluded To. Of course,
they would not be admitted to
the star chamber proceedings,
but they could talk TO members
on the outside and do a great
deal TO keep down strife. We
do not want TO urn the state
over to the populists or repub
licans, but if the fight that has
been started in the ranks is
kept up, the chances are we
will dc one or the other. With
harmony all along the line,
the democracy will
win this year"

A SIGNIFICANT DEPARTURE

With the departure of another
year when a review is made of the
condition of affairs, it is only right
that some thought be given to the
physical body which enables every
one to battle with lIfe's problem and
figure for themselves the profit or
loss on the trial balance sheet.
Though the bank account may be
large and each ones material gain be
great, it would not be surprising if
it suddenly dawns upon many that

erished by the low condition of the

A SWEET VOICE.

Voice culture, not for singing pur.
poses, however, is the latest fad; the
idea is the cultivation of the speak
ing voice. American woman are RI
diculed the world over for their
shrill, high-keyed treble, and the
voice culturist, is greatly needed
Nothings adds more to a woman's
charm than low, sympathetic quail
ity of voice, and if it is not natural
attribute, the next best thing Is to
cultivate it into a musicaI rhythm.
