NOAH ALLEN WAS RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE MATTER IN THE FIN ANN
LENT ISSUE OF THE FORUM.
MIR. Nelms Has Obtained Proof of that
Fact and that Allen Got
the Papers.

Halletsville. Texas, November Hon
w. w. helms OF Georgetown spoke TO a
large and enthusiastic audience at tho
opera house last night in the interest of
Hon. George II. Burgess. His speech
was particularly addressed to populists
and he succeeded In convincing all those
present that they should cast their bal
lots for Burgess. After the speaking a
number of former populists who had de-
termined not to vote for either candidate
for congress came forward and shook
hands with Mr.. Nelms and said they
would not only vote for Burgess, but
would work for him at the polls.
Mr.. helms also advanced potent argu-
ments to show why the negro vote should
be cast for Burgess and the effect of
his speech is evident today. The number
of colored voters who are now avowed
Burgess men is very gratifying TO tho
democrats.
rue conviction is growing hourly that
Burgess will carry Layaca county by
more than two thousand majority.
In speaking of the purchase by the
Jones managers of an issue OF the Farm
ers' Forum at Gonzales Mr.. helms said:
Since my interview published in The
Post. in which this scheme was exposed,
the editor of the Forum has admitted
that the slanderous article published by
him was furnished him by Noah Allen.
He denies that he knew the name of the
author of the article and admitted that
the papers bought by Allen we're shipped
by express to Galveston. directed to Noah
Allen. to be circulated from that point,
and 1t Is fact that Allen left Gonzales
on the same train that the papers were
shipped by"
Continuing, Mr.. helms said: This
publication by Jones' managers Will be
resented by the good people of Gonzales
county as an insult to its entire citizen
ship. No man stands higher in his home
county than George Burgess, and good
republicans who were opposed to him
on principle have denounced the SANDER
oIs attack and are now openly advocating
his election.
'The people of Gonzales county have
paid to George Burgess the highest COM
plment that was ever bestowed upon
any man in Texas. In the democratic
primaries in that county, with three
good men In ~ 20. nut of a total OF
5000 votes cast, Burgess received 299S
votes. Only two men out of this vast
HuHiper Oh Inc pest cltlZenSnip OF leHdB
opposed his nomination at the hands Of
the democratic party and these men are
now enthusiastically working for his
election, Gould any man hope for
stronger Endorsement and vote OF conf
dence at the hands OF his home people?
Gonzales people know Burgess better than
any people in the district and when the
votes are counted it will be found that,
Gonzales county has given him the great
est majority ever given any man with
republican opposition In the history OF
the county"
Hon. Sam Hopkins is also campaigning
Tor Burgess in the county and the whole
county is alive with Burgess enthusiasm
