Following is his speech in part:
"Mr. Sewall does not stand squarely
on the platform. Watson does. Let
Sewall scoot and Watson arrive.
Il understand that there is feeling
here of resentment against Mr.. Bryan
because he has not accepted our nominal
ton and because he does not accept me
us his running mate You must realize
that Mr.. Bryan's position is one of great
difficulty and you must realize that he
can only act when it becomes absolutely
necessary to act. 1t is absolutely neces-
sary for him to act until the peoples

has not done its duty, but | pledge you

will take place not later than the 18th of

you suppose that he can afford to in

Then followed an enthusiastic hand
shaking with the populist nominee,
which lasted for fully fifteen minutes.
! The crowd which surged around was so
large that he had to get into the middle
of a party of men who fought and pushed
| their way to the outside, where Il car
riage was in waiting; even at the car
riage door there was Il largccrowd. who
detained him long enough TO shake his
hand. Many even ran after the hack and
shouted words of approval to the doughty

In opening the canvass our Young GOV.
errors batteries were trained ON national
issues, but he has suddenly manifested
Il sense of the fact that there is a fire in
ms rear, and 1t became necessary to
wheel his guns into position to rake the
popullsts. The populists of this state
have had such little influence in legisla-
ton that the governor found it neccssa-
ry to 20 out of the state for examples of
popuIlst miSrulc. But the governor has
SO suddenly rearranged his lines of bat
tie that it is quite evident that he has
become alarmed and trembles with fear
lest his position should be turned from
the rear. It was gallant in our young
governor to open the, fight for Bryan,
and most severe necessity must have
occurred for him to suddenly desert his
fellow boy orator and take care of his
own back yard, and he, therefore, has
inauguratcd Il war on the populists. Bry-
an will not do it; on the other hand, he
wants TO avail of the populist nomination
| and votes.
The crossirc of this canvass has feat
ures of the ludicrous. While Bryan is
ready to stand on the populst platform,
Governor Culbcrson is training his guns
on that platform. BY the way, speak
| ing of the boy orator, and remembering
the assurances of Maj. Stcrrett that
| Texas is full of them, we do claim that
our "boy orator." the young governor,
makes better speech than the Boy Ora
tor of the Platte. We would bet on our
young governor in Il joint debate with
Bryan. and suggest the question whether
| George Washington was gold Dug or
a continental money advocate" the con-
! tcStants to toss up for sides.

A Boys Composition ON the Habit
of Fish.
An examiner of lads under sixteen for
| the Civil Service Commission gave for a
question, Describe the habits of fish" !"
Here is the literal transcript of one out
of batch of some hundreds of answers.
ION THE HABITS OF FISH.
''The shark is about twenty feet long
| and has five rows of teath when the
sharks is going to catch it's pray it turns
on its side. The sharks are found in
India, where they are very numerous
in Africa, ETC. They way they catch
sharks is lowering a piece Of meat on a
sharp hook (and sailors will do it for
amusemenD, and the shark is very hum
cry always, that he will grab at the
| meat and find himself caught
''One of his foes are the sord fish it will
go and run it's sword through its STUN
mick
when the shark has been f1otting
about on the water for some time it gets
lot Of small fish in it's mouth and they
will go and lay on the beach and let
small birds come in their mouth and
pick them off and will not heart them.
The shark can live in water and on land.
0OiIIS lrOI1 EnSldnO 10 1HQldu, you Will
see sharks in the nile, they will follow
ships for many miles on purpose to get
some meat, and then perhaps not get
any. They are different kinds of sharks,
the Black shark, Etc.
THE shark is very curious animal, it
can lay its teeth down when not
catching any food.
''Once upon a time there was a ship
going to america, and on board some
slaves were pack so close together that
they could not live, and the captin of
the ship you'st to let some come upon
deck, and many of the slaves you'st to
| jump overheard, and be eat with sharks,
so the captin determined to stop it if he
could. So one day a black slave woman
was just in the acted to jump overheard
when the captin caught her, and had as
many slaves as he could get upon deck.
And then he had a roap fastened around
her vast, and lowered her overheard,
when a shark came and bitt a half off
her off, and then the captin had the
other half pulled up and sown to the
slaves on deck, and then said to them
that he would do any one Of them the
same If the jumped overheard. Lon
