EXCHANGE INTERVIEWS.

Ever since It discovered that The Post
favored Congressman Bailey for the uniteu
States senatorship, the Tyler Courier, the
kitchen organ of Senator Chiffon, has been
prolific with It's Misrepresentation OF TINS
paper The following is tho latest:
During the sitting of the convention az
Houston that nominated Hogg and crane tor
governor and lieutenant governor 1t was as
eertained that The Houston Post Was Roins
to support Clark aud his crowd Of boilers Just
as the News was doing. A meeting OF demo
Gratis was held and a committee appointed
to arrange for the starting OF state ue iues
cratic paper that would support the organized
democracy. Mr.. Johnston of The Post, with
out being solicited to do SO, called on TINS
committee and upon enquiry was tolu us put
pose and was also shown telegram from
the ST Louis Republic in answer to an IN
curry by tho committee Mr. johnston IN
sisted that the committee hold up till next
morning The next morning came and with
ID THE Houston Post, containing an edi-
torial supporting nominee Hogg and all the
State ticket. 1t was the move by democrats
in attendance on the state convention that
caused The Post to change It's course anu
come out for Hogg and the State ticket
The above is false from beginning to end.
There wns some talk at the time mentioned
Of A movement to start newspaper favorable
to Governor Hogg in North Texas. but the
statement that Mr.. Johnston called on any
committee or that he had any conference with
any committee at any time or place, is utter
" aud entirely untrue. The Post supported
Judge Clark Tor the nomination for governor,
hut after Governor Hogg was nominated sup
ported and did all 1t could to elect the regular
democratic ticket, The Courier might be ex-
cused for It's mad rage over the senatorial
fight II it woud have some little regard Tor
