al candidate for the Twelfth dis.
trict:
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Aug. %, '96.
To the Democracy of the Twelfth Con-
gressional Districts:
BY virtue of authority vested in
us, and in accordance with Demo-
cratic presidents and usage, we
have this day selected Hon. j. l.
Slsyden, Of Bexar county, as the
Democratic nominee for congress
in the Twelfth district, vice Full
ton, resigned. We have made this
selection implicitly believing that
we have voiced the almost unani-
nous choice of the Democracy of
this district. Since> Mr.. Full
toms withdrawal, Mr. Slayden's
candidacy has been gener-
ally and favorably discussed
throughout the district, and
in selecting him as the standard
bearer of the party we feel that
we have carried out the wishes OF
our constituents. While your
committee had the unquestioned
right to call convention, it was
decided after full discussion with
leading Democrats in the district
who are not members OF the COM
mittee that inasmuch as the people
had been put to the trouble and
expense of two conventions hereto
fore, and owing to the short time
left in which to canvass the dis
trict, and to the further fact that
Mr.. Slayden was unquestionably
the choice of the Democracy OF the
district, we thought it best not to
incur the expense and trouble In
cident to a third convention, and
the consequent loss of at least
months time. To have held an
other convention new primaries
and conventions would have been
Necessary ip eHAxy pfeelnct and
county in the district.
We present to you in the person
of the Honorable James l..
Slayden, a Democrat who Is
in thorough and hearty accord
with his party; a man who has a
clear, unsullied record; man
whose integrity and honor stands
unimpeached and unimpeachable;
a man whose political record will
bear the closest scrutiny; man of
ability and worth, with experience
in public affairs, and fully qualified
in every way to fill the office for
which he has been nominated.
Presenting to you such can
didate for your suffrage, we
appeal to you for full, cordial
and enthusiastic support in his
behalf.
With a district that is Demo-
cratic by more than 5000, we appeal
to you to rally to his support and
wipe out the stain of being re-
presented by a Republican. If
you will stand by him, it is
not a question of whether
he will whit is a question
merely of the size of his majority.
This is a Democratic year. Bryan
will win. Slayden will win. Let
us make his majority five thous-
and at least. J. +. ONION,
Chairman.

ending with March, and consists of Sc
lections from the best literature, both
religious and secular. There will be
meeting every week. The work as
signed will require about twenty min
utes reading each day for the six
months.
The conversation was heard on a
Northwestern train out of Chicago last
night between a Kenosha democrat
and Racine republican. AS the con-
versation grew warm, the Racine re-
publican proposed to the Kenosha
democrat that should Bryan be elected
he would walk out of Racine barefoot
never to return without his consent, if
the Kenosha man would do the same
if Mckinley was elected. The prOpo-
sition was not accepted, and the two
men changed seats.--Racine Times.

That
Tired Feeling

Makes you seem call broken up" with
out life, ambition, energy or appetite.
It is often the forerunner of serious ILL
ness, or the accompaniment of nervous
troubles. It is positive proof of thin,
weak, impure blood; for, if the blood is
rich, red, vitalized and vigorous, it i'm
parts life and energy to every nerve,
organ and tissue of the body. The
necessity of taking Hoods Sarsaparilla
for that tired feeling is therefore apparent
to every one, and the good it will do you
is equally beyond question. Remember

An Archduke.

VIENNA, May 19.-Archduke Charles
Louis of Austria, the eldest brother of
Emperor Francis Joseph, is dead,
aged "a.
The son of the Archduke Charles
Louis Travelled by special train from
Switzerland upon receipt of word of
his fathers illness, but he arrived too
late to see his father, whose death was
not expected to occur so soon
The emperor spent the night at the
arch ducal palace. The physicians used
strong injections of ether and camphor
after midnight, but they only succeed
ed in reviving the patient to conscious
ness for a few moments.
The emperor departed at 4:S0 in the
morning from the palace knowing he
would not see his brother alive again,
but fearing that he would incommo-
date the wife and family, who did not
care to show the grief which over
whelmed them while the emperor was
present. The archduchess swooned
when she attempted to accompany the
emperor to the door upon his depart
ure. The patient himself had not been
aware of his extreme danger. The two
eldest daughters drove to the railway
to await their brother, and broke the
sad news to him when he arrived. He
walked with great difficulty and had
to be aided in reaching his carriage.
His sojourn in warm climate has i'm
proved his health, but his condition is
still precarious. Therefore, the imper-
ial succession is still regarded with
some apprehension, and many people
believe that Archduke Carl, son of the
Archduke Otto is not unlikely to be
the next occupant of the throne.

Members of the Salt Lake Jobbers'
Association Leave for Denver to

Rates-The Latest by Wire-Local
Notes.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 19.-The
Transcontinental Passenger associa-
ton has settled, as far as the present
meeting is concerned, a number of i'm
portant questions on its docket The
question of issuing tickets in blank by
the initial line to the representatives
of other lines, was discussed at length
and the recent decision of Chairman
Caldwell abolishing the practice, was
sustained. This makes it necessary for
all passengers, if they buy their tick
es i'm the ticket office of the Union Pa
cific, Rio Grande or other line, barring
the lines running out of this CITY, to &C
to the ticket Office of the Southern Pa
cific and sign their tickets. The de-
mand CT the Southern Pacific for diff
ferential on transcontinental business
out of this territory was. on motion of
NJ. NJ. Stern, of the Canadian Pacific
provided for consideration art the next
meeting.
The association concluded its labors
today and adjourned to meet in Chi
cago at date to be determined upon
by Chairman Caldwell. The definite
work it accomplished here was to make
an agreement with the roads between
the Missouri river and Chicago, by
which half rates viii be given to the
Republican and Populist conventions at
st. Louis, the Democratic convention
ait Chicago, the Grand Army encamp-
ment at ST. Paul and the Young Bap-
fist Peoples convention at Milwaukee.
These half rates will apply from all
western cities, to the four eastern cit
les mentioned above. Arrangements
were also made with the roads east of
Chicago and st. Louis by which half
rates will be given to the Christian En-
deavor convention at Washington, the
National Educational association at
Buffalo and the Prohibition national
convention at Pittsburg.
Chairman Caldwell will at once pre-
pare a circular letter about the re-
duced rates to all uhe conventions. This
circular will set forth in detail the
roads by which the tickets will be good
in going and returning from the east,
the days on which they will be offered
for sale in San Francisco and elsewhere
in the west, and the number of days
they will be good for in coming back
from the east

says the real reasons for postponing
the military tattoo, which was
to take place tonight in the presence
OF the car, was the receipt of bad
news of the death of Archduke Charles
Louis of Austria.
A Moscow dispatch to the Standard
says: Crowds of people wait patiently
in the streets by the hours for a
glimpse of the foreign royal personages
in the city When they appear the
crowds greet them respectfully, but al
most silently. The Russians are not
accustomed TO indulge in noisy dem
onstration. The brilliancy of the scene
is sadly marred by the persistent rain.
The Whole military forces were under
arms tonight for the tattoo when the
arrangement was suddenly cancelled,
owing to the receipt of the news of the
death of Archduke Charles Louis. The
vast crowds were disappointed, but the
troops marched back to the barracks
singing.

NORTHERN PACIFIC.
It's Reorganization Absorbing the
Attention of the Committee on Jul
dietary.

WASHINGTON, May 19.-The bill to
authorize the reorganization of the North
ern Pacific railroad is absorbing the at
tention of the committee on judiciary this
week Objections have been made to the
bill on account of questions which repre-
sentatives of certain interests involved in
the reorganization have raised, and it is
not unlikely that some important amend
ment will be made. Today Mr.. Morton S.
Patton, of New York, the chairman of the
reorganization committee of the Seattle
Lake Shore & Eastern railroad bond
holders spoke against the bill. Bonds
of this branch amounting to $5,558 900 have
been guaranteed by the Northern Pacific
and under the reorganization it is said
the guarantee will be lost.
Mr.. Tawney, of Minnesota, is endeavor-
ing to secure amendments which will
hold the reorganization committee to the
guarantees of the titles of land sold by
the Northern Pacific in the past. He
holds that the warrants of the land
titles will lapse with the reorganization
and that settlers whose titles may be
found defective by the courts have no
recourse unless special provision is made
in the bill There is much land in the
west which this phase of the question af-
fects Mr.. Tawney will also try to Sc
cure amendments to make the reorganized
company assume all past judgments for
labor and personal injuries.
Mr.. Hartman, OF Montana, addressed the
committee today in favor of certain points
of the bill. The features of the plan
which forbids the company from combin-
ing in any way with the rival lines and
takes it out of the power of state legis-
lators to authorize commissions which
would suppress competition are meeting
with support from representatives from
the northwest Provision to compel the
company to sell it's grant lands within
one mile of the track at $3.50 an acre is
also favored, but some exceptions are
taken to the xclusion of mineral and
timber lands from this rule.
Senator Wilson. of Washington, urged
that an amendment be made which would
include indemnity lands as well as those
in the plan limit, so as to bring the So
called lien lands of oregon and Wash
ington within the provisions of the bill.

WASHINGTON, May 19.-The con-
ference committee on the sundry civil
bill made a partial report today a
number of senate amendments were
agreed to by the house of representa-
tives, and some were receded from by
conferees on the part of the senate
Among the items yet in dispute are
those providing for public buildings at
Boise City. Ida, and Cheyenne, Wyo.,
ard for the purchase of a lot for the
Salt Lake public building. The latter
provision was incorporated into the
bill upon motion of Senator Brown,
several weeks ago. He had heretofore
introduced his bill providing for public
buildings at Salt Lake and Ogden, but,
fearful that the house would not pass
any public building bills. deemed it
advisable to ct least secure an appro-
priation for the purchase of a lot for
The Salt Lake building, and succeeded
in having it included in the sundry
civil blu But the house conferees
seem TO be opposed TO appropriating
money looking to the erection of new
public buildings, and all of these SEN
ate amendments are yet in dispute.
The three senate conferees decline to
yield, and so do those on the part of
the house. The outcome is doubtful.
Senator Brown is hopeful that the sem
ate conferees, by a stubborn resist
ance, may yet carry their point and
make these appropriations.
