zAPATA COUNTY NEWS.
No More Suffering There-Politics
at Fever Heat-Garner May
Garry the County, though
It Is a Republican
Stronghold.

To THE III GRALD.
Carrie, Texas, Oct. 18.-Zapata
County has been blessed with heavy
rains along her whole river front
during the last two or three days.
All the ''presas" are full of water,
and the arroyos running bank-full
Travel is largely suspended, and the
roads, always bad, are mere gullies
now. The people are jubilant over
their prospects, and there is no
doubt that their suffering is over.
Politico are at fever heat. The
Democrats, in union with the new
Reformista party, have put out a
strong county ticket, which promises
to sweep the county. The Repub
licans are desperate and are using
every means to hold their people in
line. Deputy sheriffs are extremely
abundant, and arms and mescal
greatly in evidence. The feelings
aroused among the people are so
strong and bitter that it is generally
feared that they will be turned into
action and violence. The presence
of Rangers from now until after -.
returns are canvassed, is necessary
to prevent riots and wholesale kill
ing, and the peaceable citizens Of
Zapata county hope that the State
authorities will send some three
or four, at least, and terminate the
anxiety and fear in which they are
now living.
Hon. John A. Walls, candidate
for District Attorney, and Hon. F.
w. Seabury, candidate for re-elec-
ton as Representative, have been
stumping the county in theinterest
of the Democratic %arty. They
spoke to large audieni es, at San Ig-
nacio, Carrie, and Lopeno, in
Spanish, and everywhere met a
cordial reception, Notwithstanding
the threats that are reported to have
been made against the lives of any
outsiders who should discuss local
affairs here.
There will be a big Reformista
rally at Randado tonight. Nearly
all our candidates are there now
and they intend to make an effort
to capture that Republican strong
hold.
1t is believed now, that Garner
will carry this county, but this will
depend on whether he can poll the
full Reformista vote, and on whether
certain supporters Of the local
Republican administration Will live
up to their pledges and vote for
him. The Democrats proper are
still in a minority here, although
the party is advancing with rapid
strides. and will in all probability
be dominant two years hence A
great deal of good work has been
done for the party within the last
year, and the old Democrats deserve
great praise for their successful
efforts in that line.
