fair,


beaumont, Texas, September 30.-Pursu-
ant to call by Chairman J. c. Reynolds,
the white faction of jefferson county re-
pubicans met in convention at the court
house last night and enjoyed what might
be properly termed a political love feast.
The call had been for a delegated con-
vention to nominate candidates for county
offices, but later 1t was decided to have a
mass convention with the hope of har-
monizing the two factions. This move was
not altogether a success. few of the
colored citizens materialized, but those
white republicans who are not disposed to
disturb present existing political condi-
tions were conspicuous by their absence.
and they are the power in the colored
camp
The convention did no business OF i'm
portance at the meeting Existing condi-
tions were discussed at length and by 4
vote those present went on record az
favoring a county republican ticket.
The convention adjourned until next
Saturday night, the consensus of opjni n
being that candidates for all offices would
be named at that meeting.

CBY JOHN p. ALTGELD1

The Anglo-Saxon race has shed more
blood to maintain the right of trial by
jury than for any other one thing. It
lies at the basis of all free institutions,
and no people have, during this century,
grown great or risen high In the scale of
civilization who did not respect trial by
jury All of the great statesmen of Eng
land, ali of the statesmen If this country,
whose names the American people revere,
have defended trial by jury as the most
sacred and vital institution OF human lib-
erty and human progress yet established
by man. The opposition to trial by jury
always and everywhere comes from those
men that deyour the substance of other
mons toll, the men who eat bread that Is
earned by the sweat of other mems brows.

work of America, who have built our
cities, built and operate our factories,

COTTON CROP REPORT.
Average Condition snid to Re Lowest
Ever known

New Orleans. La. September 3O-The
Times Democrat tomorrow will say: We
herewith present the reports OF the CORE
spondonts on the progress of the cotton crop
during the month OF September.
With rare exceptions. the changes in the
status were distinctly for the worse and the
average condition is no doubt, the lowest
ever known s.nee crop reporting assumed
systematic form
Texas has heretofore been bright spot
on the map, but the tremendous wind storms
ana torrential rains have brough, the expec-
tauons OF the Lone star state within very
moderate limits
Arkansas and Louisiana are very spotted
while the crop in Mississippi is veritable
disaster Alabama is not quite SO bad. but
is stlll quite bad enough. Georgia and The
Carolnas are not far behind Mississippi in
the matter OF badness.
1t must be remembered that the Times
Democrats correspondents take the yield OF
1893 as the basis OF comparison. AS the
production OF last year was only 300 000
bales, It would appear that the harvest OF
1900 has gwen the trade an exceedingly
knotty problem TO solve.

Every day We may read tale OF two

New Orleans Times Democrat and The

port city that has long been waging a
commercial war against Galveston. The

battle. and there is a shrewd suspicion
abroad that the Texas quarantine law

been used vigorously to the detriment of
the Crescent City
