HowELLs rs DISAPPOINTED.
Surprised Over the Result of tn
Fight For the ShrieVa1ty.

The result of the contest over the
shrievalty nomination was an unpleas-
ant surprise to Sheriff Howells. who
all along has been led to believe, so
he says, that the old Jeffersonian prin-
ciple that a public official who has
served one term faithfully and we'll is
entitled to denomination, would in his
case, as in others before the conven-
ton, govern the rewards of merit.
To The Herald, Sheriff Howells stat
ed the belief that he was q victim of
slanderers who had failed to establish
anything discreditable to him in his
personal character, or in the admins
tration of the office Just as the oppo-
sition or Republican party had failed.
Nevertheless, the work of his adver-
saries was successful, he added, but he
would continue to be faithful to the
principles of Democracy.

CITY Is TO REMAIN.
j. D. Mallory Discusses the Future of
Galveston.

Dallas, Tex, Sept 14--In a special
to the News from New York, J. ID.
Mallory of the Mallory line has this
TO say as to the future of Galveston:
Naturally Texas will seek an out
let through a Texas harbor. There is
no other harbOr in that state equal to
the one in Galveston, and even if the
city were wiped out, men with money
would begin to build there Locally
Galveston has suffered great loss, but
1t does not deprive the city of its value
as a port
He says regular semi-weekly sailings
TO Galveston will continue uninteF-
ruptedly. the San Marcos leaving today
and the Concho on Saturday. Both
steamers will carry large quantities OF
stores contributed here for the relief
OF the needy in Galveston and sur
rounding territory.

announced that as no limit on speeches
had been fixed he would not debar any
gentleman from talking as long as he
pleased. After Mr.. Stewart got
through, Matt Thomas moved that

one minute. An amendment fixing
nominations at five minutes failed to

c. Lambert was recognized and nomi-
mated George H. Wood and moved that
the nomination be made unanimous.
The nomination was made with a yell
and without dissenting voice

moved that the convention adjourn as
soon as the ballot was announced to
give the country delegates a chance to
catch the last car for Murray. There
was a fight over this motion, but it was
finally declared carried on a standing
vote. Motions to reconsider were de-

WORK OF NOMINATING
BEGINS IN AFTERNOON

The convention was more than an
hour late in opening the afternoon ses-
sion Instead of reassembling at 2
o'clock it was after when serious bust
ness was begun. In the meanwhile
Hele'e band gave a programme of
catch, airs that caught the fancy of
the delegates and provoked unstinted
applause.
Immediately after Temporary Chair
man RideOut's gavel fell, Judge O. w.
Powers moved the appointment of a
committee of five to confer with a like
committee from the POpulists and to
agree if possible on a fusion of the re-
form forces on some equitable basis.
Chairman RideoUt named Judge H. 2.
Henderson, Charles L. Rood, George Ct.
Smith, II. 3. Johnson of Sandy and J.
r. Rawlins of Draper on the committee.
The report OF the committee on Gre
dentialS, which was next presented,
recommended that the delegates whose
names we're printed in The Herald be
given their seats except in the Thirtieth
district. There the contesting delega-
ton consisting of Z. H. Picker, J. N.
Eslinger, H. A. Smith, John McDuff,
John H Bach, Harold Sleater and Alvin
Beasley was seated with one vote for
each meT Der. In addition Ben John
son, Phil Raleigh, Alex Carr and John
Christensen were given half vote
each.
The report suggested that alternates
take the place of delegates in all cases
except where no alternates were elected
and then proxies would be considered
sufficient. Where a full delegation was
not present it was recommended that
those present cast the vote to which the
district was entitled. The report was
adopted unanimously and the report of
the committee on permanent organiza-
ton and order of business was called
for. II was presented hv i. c. RVWater

The Change Coming.

Several weeks ago in an article on
the merits of the war in South Africa,
we gave it as our belief that a more
thorough acquaintance with the facts OF
hiatory would bring about change in
the sentiment of our people; that the
pro Boer feeling was one largely sentl-
mental and not one based upon an &C
curate knowledge of the true situation
Unfortunately, this preponderance OF
feeling has resulted in our daily press
leaning to the Boer side and giving lit
tie information that weighed against
them, but has catered to public senti-
meut by allowing chiefly pro'Boer state
ments and giving the least possible, nc
matter how undeniably true, of char
acter favorable to the British.
That the political conditions imposed
by the Free (?) Republic Of South At
RIGA, upon the English and other out
lander inhabitants, have been lntoler-
able and that these same outlanders
have brought the brains, energy and
capital into South Africa, essential to
it's development. are facts that are grad
ually coming to the knowledge Of our
people,

Educational.

The sitting session of the General AS.
sembly will 60 down into history as one
in which exceptional attention was CIV
en- TO public school matters.
In the first place it has passed law
providing for minority representation
on the county boards Of school commits
sioners. something that should have
been done long since.
Another needed piece of legislation
is the opening up Of reciprocal relations
between the MOI NAL School Of this State
and those Of unquestioned standing in
other States, whereby the diplomas held
by graduate teachers will be recognized,
obviating the necessity of examinations.
Another bill pending is that intro
duced by Mr.. Waters of this county,
providing for compulsory school attend
ance. This is being very thoroughly
discussed by the press of the State and
will be urged with great force in the
Legislature. 1t is too early as yet to
predicate results, but that the measure
is most merltorious one may not be
disputed. Much stress was laid upon
school matters by both parties in the
last campaign and the Legislature seems
to have appreciated the necessity Of
radical legislation; if all that has been
brought to the attention of that body
by bills thus far introduced, results in
favorable action, school affairs will be
put upon a more modern basis in the
State.

Once more the House, sitting as a
"Committee of the whole" when no rec
ord is made of the vote. decided, by a
vote Of seventy.Gve to sixty-seven to
strike out the clause Of the Legislative,
executive and judicial appropriation
dill carrying money for the support Of
the Civil Service Commission, only to
reverse that action on record vote
afterwards.
While the question of praising the
bravery of volunteers in the war with
Spain from one section at the expense
OF those of other sections, enable several
members of the House TO make little
speeches that will add to their personal
popularity at home, its good taste is
doubted by dlsinterested persons. The
bravery of Americans Of every section is
too well established to require either
praise or defense. 1t is one of the nat
ural requirements of Americans.
