It is considered likely that the demo-
cratic state convention on Aug. 80 will be
held In Minneapolis. The location WAS left
to the executive committee of the state
committee, and they are not willing to
coop the convention In an operahouse. AS
they do not care to send the delegates on
another trip to Duluth, the only available
place seems to be the international audi
toriun in Minneapolis, and this is the
most likely selection. gs

Corsicana Democrat: Hogg' 5 talk
about curbing the corporations
should awaken in the heart of the
members of the Legislature a sense
of their duty to the people-the
source from whence comes their
commission.
The above is the way a great
many are now talking. The legis-
lators are not yet elected. From
the remarks as made above it can
be inferred that the people have al
ready concluded that the next Leg
islature does not intend to protect
them from the greed of the cor
porations. 1t would look as if the
best course TO be pursued, if such
fears have a good foundation, is to
elect men who will do their duty.
Before the primaries all the ques-
tons now before the people. includ
ing the question of whether the
railroads are determined to rule the
State, as alleged by many politi-
clans, were before the people Men
were selected for the Legislature
with these questions before the
mind. Why should they be sus-
pected? Why should people be
eternally telling them that they
must observe their oaths of Office?

From long list Of tomato growers
an average IS obtained of from $500

actual results this season, and not
from speculative results OF the fu-

There is no doubt that Texas Of

ANOTHER ARGUMENT EOP
DIVERSZEICA7LON

In a measure the boil weevil ha:
been of great benefit to the agricul-
tIirai class of Texas. 1t has serv-
ed TO more forcibly bring to their
attention the necessity of diversif-
ed farming, and perhaps it will
have its effect on the more intel
ligent of them.
Too many of them have been
welded to the old idea that cotton
was the only crop that could be
prohtably raised III the South under
existing conditions. Probably this
was correct at one time, but IS not
SO at present. Conditions have
changed. and many of the planters
are blind to the fact Of this change
The time was when it was the one
profitable crop Of the Southern
States. but that was before the
country was developed to the ex-
tent it now boasts. Then the steam
boat was the favorite mode of travel
and communication between the
civilized sections of the country:
today an entirely different condi-
ton exists. The country Is tray
ersed in every direction by rail
roads time and space have been
annihilated BY the engines of pro-
gress, and today the people of
Mexico and Canada are not further
away than the people Of a border
ing State were a few years ago.
King Cotton must abdiCate in favor
Of Diversified Farmer.
No object lesson should be need
cd as to the ACCESSIBILITY of resort
ing to more advanced ideas in agri-
cultural pursuits. Practical dem
onstrations long ago determined
this point, and the thinking ones
should have no hesitancy i'll follow |
ing in the footsteps of the success
ful advocate of an established fact. /.
The growing of fruit and truck is
bound to take the lead in the flu
ture in East Texas, the proven field /
for such products While fruit |
raising and truck growing are in
their infancy IN some other sections. /
the results so far achieved have
been SO great that much is antici-
pated for the future. The day is
not far distant when canneries will
be established at all available points
in the fruit belt of East Texas and
evaporating plants will come IN for
attention. Then indeed will the
fruit growers see an era of prosper
ity such as they DO not dream of
While the returns from the orchards
are very large in comparison with
the old crops, they are not what
they Will be IN the near future
Now much of the fruit IS permitted
TO so to waste because Of the un-
profitable marketing of the late
fruits, neoessitated through COM
petition with the products of Geor-
gia and California, which come in
about two weeks later than the
Texas crop. When .evaporators
and canneries are established this
fruit can be handled with profit to
the grower, and add much to his
cash account.
Leaving out of consideration the
question Of the future and consider
ing only the present, Instances can
be cited il which one orchard com
panv near RuSk this year sold the
product Of its lands for about 500
000. They have shipped II car.
loads from Rusk. Another orehar-
dist Of Jacksonville sold of 500

worth of fruit. Another had 100
lss-es in Eibertas. and from the or

CABLE TO ALASKA.
All American Line VIII BE Opened for
Business To-day.

WAsrfrNoToN, Oct. I. Gen. Greedy. Chief
Signal Officer Of the Army, announced
to-day that the recently completed all
American Alaskan cable would be open for
commercial business tomorrow. The fol-
lowing telegram was received by Gen.
Greedy this morning:
This Is the first cablegram transmitted
from Valdez over the new line connect
ing at Sitka with the United States
Formerly 1t was necessary to trans
nit cable messages for Alaska, even when
directed to United States army posts in
tn at territory, over the Canadian line
Now, however, the all-American cable ex-
tends from Valdez to Eagle City, and west
ward more than 900 miles to st. Michael,
and thence by wireless to Nome and Safety
Harbor. The distance from st. Michael
to Nome is only l07 miles, but cable laid
over this stretch was torn up by the ice
Experiments showed that a regular cable
was impraGticable for this route, and it
was decided to Use wireless. The line il
working very satisfactorily, according to
rcrorts received by Gen, Greedy recently.
The appropriation for the new connect
ing section of the all-American line was
made by Congress on April % last. Work
was Immediately begun and Gen. Greedy
and the Others officers Of the War Depart
ment consider that the fact that the line
is now in readiness for commercial business
is nothing short OF remarkable.

$4,000 IN DISPUTE.
several Claimants for Money Deposited
In the Ulster County Bank.

KINGSTON, n. V, Oct. THE officers
of the National Ulster County Bank of this
city Just now are perplexed as to whom they
shall pay $40 900 that is on deposit in that
institution. This morning. while the SUI
preme Court was in session, Lawyer Gold
smith OF New York city, who is said to be
connected with T. p. Sullivans law Office,
asked for an order to examine the president
Of the National Ulster County Bank on
proceedings supplemental to an execution
obtained by ". H. Brown 4 Co.. a judgment
having been obtained In the city court Of
New York city by Moses Max.
The sc, 900 was deposited in this bank
some days ago by W. H. Brown, who called
at the bank in company with young woman
he said was his daughter. The deposit
was made In the name Of W. II. Brown &
Co., who were expected to begin business
In this city. Power Of attorney was given
the Young woman to draw checks.
The next day another man called who
claimed to be partner of Brown, and he
informed the bank that the money was
to be drawn only on the checks OF the young
woman. Brown denied all knowledge Of
the other man, but the two did not agree
as to what was to be done with the money.
The following day MIR. Goldsmith, the
lawyer for Mr.. Max, telephoned to the bank
from New York, not to pay the money to
any person. and Henry Klein, attorney for
the young woman, it is said has made
a claim for the money on her behalf. In
court, Goldsmith assured the Judge that it
would be entirely safe" to give an order
to have the money placed in the hands Of
the Sheriff. This was no Weber aud Fields
stunt" he said. The Judge, after hearing
the banks attorney, who said he would re-
quire some time to find out about the mat
ter, adjourned proceedings until next
Wednesday.
This morning telephone message was
received at Police Headquarters here from
New York to the effect that certain persons,
accompanied by lawyer, were on their
way to Kingston to obtain this money, but
not to pay the money to them whoever
they were. There are other claimants for
the money.

CZAR AND Sultan DENOt need.
Held Up at Peace Congress az Being Re-
spOnslble for Armenian Massacres.

BOSTON. Oct 7-VigorolIs attacks were
made upon the Gear OF Russia and the Sui
tan of Turkey at to-day's session OF the
Peace Congress because Of the Armenian
massacres. The discussion began when
Houszeau de Lahaie OF Belgium presented
a set of resolutions on Armenia.
They recited the continuing and increa4-
ing woes of the people OF that country
and called upon the President OF the United
States to take the initiative in calling a
conference to devise means CT relieving
the suffering. DR.. Malekofr declared that
the treaty Of Berlin was the cause Of the
Sutans cruelty, it being his object to kill
of the Armenians, so that no reforms, as
demanded by the treaty, would be necessary.
Frederick Green Of England, in indorsing
the resolution, said: 1T is pretty well known
the Armenians-and the Cossacks aid in the
determination of the Armenian people
The Russian scoundrels are as bad as the
Turks"

WASHINGTON, Oct 7.--Col John s. Mosby,
the noted Confederate guerrilla, who is now
a special agent of the Department Of Justice.
investigating land frauds, is highly indig
nant over the sentiment expressed by Rep
resentstive Hefn Of Alabama, in his speech
at Tuskegee, on Monday, in which he said,
in referring to the entertaining Of Booker 7.
Washington at the White House, that IF
Czolgosz, or some other anarchist, had
thrown bomb under the table, no great
harm would have been done the country"
Col Mosby ia OF opinion that the remark
will cost the Democrats many votes in the
North, Notwithstanding Hefin's subse-
quent avowal that he had intended it as
joke. He also deplored Helms threat Of
lynching Booker r. Washington il the latter
took part in the campaign against him
(Hef1n), and said he noticed that Hef1in
had not retracted that statement on the
ground that it was a joke
Col. Mosby said that he had no doubt
that pressure from Northern Democrats
who feared injury to the ticket had COM
PEELED Hefin to publish his card of dis
avowal.
But he continued, Il really cannot
see that Hefiins talk Of joke puts the
matter in any better position than it was
before. Helm must have expected his
audience to enjoy the joke about the as
States; but people who laugh at such an
awful crime could have no real horror if
the crime were actually committed. But
to lynch Booker Washington for taking
part as citizen in a Congressional canvass,
l think In every moral sense would be as
bad az the assassination Of a President
Il do not think the people who heard
Hefin saw the point if he intended his re-
marks about assassination as only joke.
As for the talk about forcing the social
equality OF the races, that IL nonsense.
Nobody wants to do such thing, and no
body oan do it. Social intercourse rests
on sympathy. on taste and mutual con-
sent. That law of nature Is the foundation
of society and regulates not only the con-
duct OF men, but OF all animals. There is
just as marked line of division between
different classes Of white people as between
white people and negroes

MAY HOLD 1T FOR CORTELYOU.
President Advised That the 80 Day Pro-
vision Doesn't Apply in Present Case.

WASHINGTON, Oct. THE President
will not take up the question Of appointing
a successor to the late Postmaster-Genera
Payne for three or four days. The opinion
of high law officers of the Government,
however, is that when the President chooses
to act there will be no embarrassment
arising from the fact that section Of the
Revised Statutes requires that an appoint
ment to fill Cabinet vacancy must be
made within thirty days Assuming that
Mr.. Roosevelt wished to appoint George
B. Cortelyou PostmasterG General. the idea
has prevailed that hitch might occur,
for the reason that thirty days will have
expired before the election Of Nov 8, and
that Mr.. Cortelyou could not well resign
the craftsmanship OF the Republican national
committee before that time:
1t has been called to the Presidents
attention, however, that the thirty day
provision relating to the filing of vacan-
apply in case the United States Senate il
not in session. Sections Ia to 1871 inclusive,
bear on this subect Section $50 provides:
"A vacancy oocasioned by death or resig-
nation must not be temporarily filed
under the three preceding sections for a
longer period than ten days"
This section was subsequently amended
to read thirty days.
Section 1871 says:
mo temporary appointment, designation
or assignment OF one officer to perform
the duties of another in the cases covered
by Sections 1T and i7s shall be made other
wise than as provided by those sections,
except to all vacancy happening during
n recess OF the Senate
As Mr. Paynes death occurred during
recess of the Senate, 1t 10 held that the re-
quirement to fill the vacancy within thirty
days does not apply in the present case,
and that II the President chooses he may
defer action until after the election and
then appoint Mr.. Cortelyou,

MIR. pAYNE,s FUNERAL.
Brief Services In 1t. Johns Church-The
Body to Lie in state In Milwaukee.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.--Funeral services,
brief and simple in character. were held
over the body OF the late Postmaster
General Henry G. Payne this morning at
II O'Clock in st Johns Church, 1t Is only
at rare intervals that so distinguished
body of men Is brought together in one
place.
The seating capacity of st. Johns is small
80 the list OF persons invited to attend
was restricted to the family and close per-
sonal friends Of the late Postmaster-General
and persons connected with official life
in the city OF Washington,
Seated in one OF the front pews OF the
church directly back OF the casket were
the President and Mrs. Roosevelt, and In
the seats Immediately adjoining were Mrs.
Payne and the near relatives OF the de-

bureau chiefs and other officials OF the
Post Office Department occupied seats on
departments of the Government were
closed until O'Clock to-day.
The services were conducted by the
Rev. Roland Cotton Smith, rector of St.
Johns, who returned from the Episcopal
Convention in Boston for the funeral. The
full vested choir OF the church sang Lead,
Kindly Light and one Of the assistant
rectors read from the Scriptures. The
choir then sang, "Jesus, Lover Of my Soul"
and the reading of a prayer by the rector
ended the services.
Only three members OF the Cabinet,
Secretaries Hay, Hitchcock and Wilson
are in the city, and they were honorary pail
bearers. The casket, covered with great
burden Of flowers, among which was
