Fl. G. Williamson.

In presenting the name of Hen
ry Coleman Williamson, of Ever
EFT, as a candidate for the office
of Assessor Of Tyler county, The
Journal would call the attention
of Republicans to a man well
worthy of being honored by his
party. Born, in 1863, the darkest
year of the Civil war, this son Of
a Democratic household grew up,
attending countryside applying
himself to his books and becoming
a most excellent scholar. Later
he attended high school at ST..
Marys, and began teaching, IN
which profession he attained en-
inence. The year 1884 was Mr..
Williamson's first opportunity to
cast his ballot for a President. 1t
was a memorable campaign in
which the bitterest invectives Of
party hatred were especially di-
rected against the standard bear
er Of our party, James G. Blaine,
for whom this intelligent young
man travelled several miles, after
teaching school all day, and
| reached the polls just in time to
cast his first vote for the straight
Republican ticket. Mr.. William
son taught school for ten years,
and was county superintendent
for a term of two years. Mr.. Will
hanson was once defeated as a
| candidate for House of Delegates,
Rev. A. Il. Hughes receiving the
nomination, who afterwards had
the hearty support Of the loyal
Republican who now again
aspires to political honors. Six
years ago Mr.. Williamson mar.
ried Miss Estella, daughter OF
John NJ. Smith, of Wilbur
Through his own efforts and the
assistance of Congressman d. b
Dovenor, the postoffice of Everett
was established in Union district
Mr.. Williamson is a member OF
some of the fraternal orders, be-
ling a Master Mason and Junior
Order United American. A sing
ular fact and worthy of note is
that when Mr.. Williamson com.
menced to vote and work for the
Republican party he was the only
member of the faith, not only in
his fathers family but in the vi
, cinity. Now Union district is
! credited with Republican major
! ity and undoubtedly Mr.. William
! son is looked upon as a party
leader in his section. We unre-
servedly commend him to the
voters Of Tyler county as a wise
choice for the important office OF
Assessor.-The Journal.

confident that there is a good, big
pool of oil in the vicinity OF their
holdings and hope to make a fair
strike. The first well will be put
down to the gas sand, 1000 feet,
which corresponds to the salt
sand in other fields which is US
ually found at 1000 to 1900 feet.

The Team Of Ponies of @. I. ellis
Became Frightened

While Charles ellis was out
driving last evening his team Of
ponies became frightened and
ran away, causing much excite
ment. Mr.. ellis was driving east
on Diamond street at the time the
runaway occurred. The ponies
started just in front of the store
of G. E. Schupbach, and they only
made a few jumps when they
broke away from the vehicle,
taking the pole with them. They
continued in their mad flight on
out Diamond street onto Pike.
They did not run far out this
thoroughfare until they were
caught. The mishap was due to
one of the bolts, which attached
the pole to the wagon, losing out.
Mr.. ellis was thrown from the
vehicle, in front of the People s
National bank, but aside from
sustaining a few bruises was I'M
injured. Neither the ponies or
wagon were injured, and as soon
as another bolt was secured Mr..
ellis hitched his team up again
and they started off as uneoncern-
ed as though nothing unusual had
occurred. 1t was a very fortu-
nate runaway for Mr.. ellis, and
furnished considerable excitement
for the large crowd that witness
ed it.

yesterdays balloting, So being for and
AZ against the amendment. 1t lacked
eight votes of the number. The house
now contains 1872 members, one men,
Der having died recently. OF the twen-
ty-three members absent, nearly all
were paired.
Statutory prohibition Is the first love
of many of the leaders who were de-
feated in yesterdays battle. Prior to
the prohibition convention held in this
city last summer the sole theme was
statutory measure. The constitu-
tional amendment had not been pro-
posed or thought of until the commit
tee made its report suggesting the en-
actment of constitutional amend
ment, accompanied by statutory law
to remain in force until the consti-
tutional amendment could be submit
ted to the people and be inserted IN
the constitution in case of successful
result.
A significant feature of yesterdays
voting was the fact that not all the
antagonists of the amendment were
from wet" counties. Some of the
strongest speeches of the opposition
were made by members from "dry"
counties, and in nearly every instance
these members expressed the belief
that the present local option laws are
good enough. There was, in fact, a
coalition of some sort between the To-
cal optionists and opponents of con-
stitutional prohibition.
The fight for statutory prohibition,
in the opinion of many members, will
be short, sharp and decisive. The
principal battle will be waged before
the house committee on liquor traffic,
and considerable doubt exists as to
whether this committee will make a
favorable report on the measure.
Black Eye to Motion.
Before the adjournment last even
ing, Mr.. Smith, of Holmes, changed his
vote from aye to nay on the prohibit
ton amendment and entered motion
TO reconsider. This motion was called
up this morning shortly after the
house convened. On the point of order
that a motion to reconsider could not
be entered when constitutional
amendment had failed, Speaker Thorn
as took the matter under advisement
and decided that the point was we'll
taken. This sounded the death knell
of the amendment, SO tar as the lower
house is concerned.
The house refused to consider the
bill allowing the boards of supervisors
to order special elections to decide on
the question of increasing the tax levy
to mills for road purposes. There
was little or no opposition to the mo-
ton to table.
Nothing further Of general interest
TRANSFERRED in the house, and the SEN
ate wrangled over the text book bill
the greater part of the day, accom-
plished nothing, went into executive
session and later adjourned for the
day.

THIRTY.FIRsT DAY.

After spirited debate, lasting the
entire day, the lower house this after
noon defeated the amendment provid-
ing for constitutional prohibition, the
measure lacking eight votes Of receiv-
ing the required two-thirds majority
of those voting
OF the total membership of 1873, the
yeas were &c, nays 43; total absent,
paired OF not voting, "a; number nee
essary to carry amendment, IA. The
anti-prohibitio1ist are in high glee
and the result seems to meet with
somewhat general approval, as the
movement to forever abolish open sa-
looms from the State was not strongly
backed, receiving its chief support
from the ministers of the Methodist
and Baptist churches.
Discord within the prohibition ranks
was one of the causes contributing to
the downfall of the movement. 1t Is
understood that the prohibitionists will
Immediately prepare and introduce a
bill for statutory prohibition.
The speeches for the amendment at
the afternoon session were delivered
by Messrs. Kimbrough, Cavett, Ross,
Patterson and East.
The opposition addresses were made
by Messrs. Owens, Greaves, Winston,

lem in the State was thoroughly and
