the legislature and that both branohes
of our government in their zeal to
obey tho injunctions of their party,
honestly exceeded its demands. And
now that the alien land law has beon
amended, it is not nn issue in this
campaign.
8. Wo believe in "cqiul and oxaot
justice to all men of whatever state or
persuasion, religious or political," and
are opposed to any enroaohments
upon the rural homostead, so that
money oan bo lorrowed thereon,
whether from tho state, its school
fund or from individuals.
9. We pledge our devotion to the
principles of Democracy and "whilst
lifo endures" will Ght under its flag
for our state and national triumph.
10. Wo are friends to tho railroads
and to all enterprises and factors in
the development ot our state, we stand
a unit to shiold aud protect suoh en
terprises in tho rifrbt use and enjoy
ment of their proporty, but they must
obey tho law.
11. The administration of Governor
Hogg has been aggressivo, fearless
and honest, and we boo no good reason
for breaking the time honored prooo
dent of endorsing his administration
by a second term.

Tho above report was adoptod.
Mr. F. P. Whipkoy, of West, offer
ed tho following which was adoptod:
Whereas, Tho County Democratic
hxecutivo comtmtteo issued the oall
for each prooinot to hold their prima
ries on May 7, 1892, to seleot dele
gates to the county convention in
Waoo May 14, for tho purposo of se
lecting delegates to tho Congressional
convention and to tho Lampasas oon
yention, and
Whereas, The Clark men, by unfair
and unjust unans, took advantago of
the situation and after using, by fraud,
the means to unseat Hogg delegates
from different proomots in tho county
in order to carry tho convention for
ueorgo Ulark a endorsement for gov
ernor. Therefore b2 it,
Rosolvod, 1. That wo in convention
assomblcd repudiate that aotion in
the convention dcolaring that that
convention had nothing to do with
tho gubernatorial question.
2. That wo denounoo in strong
terniB tho methods U3cd in scouring
that endorsement and doolaro that it
by no means voioeaof tho peoplo of
this oounty.

3. Feeling that wo wero unjustly
troated in that convention we hereby
pludgo ourselves to a mill to uso our
best endeavors to make them repent
of it at tho ballot bos July 9, 1892,
tho time fixed for determining how
MoLcnnan oounty stands foa governor.
After tho adopiton of tho resolu
tions, Mr. D, II. Hardy addressed
tho convention aud elioitod considers
bio applause.
Mr. Waller S. Baker followed in a
short speech.
John H. Harrison was tho next
speaker and was entertaining the con
vention when tho reporter returned to
the office to fill the maw of tho copy
fiend.
It is estimated that about 500 peo
plo are in attendenoe upon the con
vention and probably 150 of those
aro third party men, Clark men and
men who are neither for Clark or
Hogg. Tho Hogg budges were ab jut
350 strong and somo of these were
from adjoining counties. It is, how
over, a good demonstration and shows
that the Hogg people aro sure enough,
bent on carrying this county if they
oan.
DEATH OF MR. ROUSE.
Inquest Arro3t of Aeoused Par
ties Tho Kemalns.
Mr. John J. Rouse, tho oattleman
who was diugged and robbed laBt Fri
day night, at tho Red Front saloon,
aooording to general belief, died at 5
o'olock yesterday afternoon. His
physioians did all that science could
suggest in Buoh a case but the enor
mous doso of narcotic, full 30 grains
triumphed; fast as the antidotes neu
tralized he reabsorbed and all the care
and skill proved unavailing. The death
bed was a very Bad scene. Those
who witnessod it will long remember
room No. 1 at the Mitchell House
Tho weeping wifo, her boy and the
little ones dinging to her skirts, the
sufferer in tho throes of death, all to
gethor it was a dismal, sorrowlul,
hoartrending oloso of tho life of a
husband and father.
Justice Gallagher viewed tho re
mains shortly after the viotim breathed
his last. This morning tho body left
over tho Mission Route, suitably os-
oorted for burial at Lott.
CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS,
Ira Rouso, son of dooeased, went
before Justice Gallagher, last night
and mado affidavit for warrant
against Goorgo Walker, Lou Galla
ghor, John Dowd, Bruoe Dowd, May
Uowd and another party. Tho war
rants wero placed in the hands of
Sheriff Ford Tho parties wero
much soattered. Those who took
part in making the arrests wero Hlioriff
Ford, Assistant City Marshal Clay,
Deputy Sheriff Loo Jenkins, Police
Officers Curry and Hardwiok, Mayor
MoCullooh and Mr. M. B. Davis, of
the press. Tho parties arrested were
all landed iu jtil beforo midnight.
THE RED FRONT.
Tho abovo named saloon is looated
on Washington stect, betweet Hirst
and Second streets. It is within tho
partion of Waoo dovoted by ordinance
to tho basost purposes Tho
J Dowd Brothers are its proprietors
CLEBURNE.
It is believed and assorted by tho of
ficers that these mon aro robbor and
murderers and that they are at tho
head of a gang of thioves who havo
fur two years decoyed viotims to this
den and oither drugged or slugged
them, taking what 0104)3 wore nocos
sary to eeouro the cash and valuables
of the unfortunates who fell into their
hands. Mr. ltouso was led there lite
a lamb to tin slaughter. Ho was sup
posed to have a largo roll of money on
his person and this would have been
tho ca'e but for tho forethought of
Capt. Si Whitaker, partner of de
ceased. THE OFFICERS.
Marshal Alf Neill, Assistant Mar
shal Clay, and their officers worked
well in getting up ovidence Sheriff
Ford, Depnty Shoriff Lee Jenkins and
other officers wero prompt of aotion.
All together it was a creditable j)b.
It is to be hoped that if notaing olso
results (horo will hereafter be no mora
oases of drugged beer, robberies and
murders in that quarter.
TODAYS WORK ON TUE CASE.
A search warrant was sworn out
this morning bef -re Justice J. N. Gal
lagher with the hope of finding the
deceased man's watch and placed in
the hands of Policeman W. 0 Clay,
and, in company wiih Deputy Sheriff
Lee Jenkins, Policeman Knott and a
News reporter, a determined search
was made but, of course, the watch
was not found.
John Dowd was taken from the
calaboose, where he was confined and
taken to the rescva'ion. He unlrck
ed his safe and told the officers to
search to their satisfaction. The watch
was not found there and the room
of Lou Gallagher was the next subject
ed to a thorough search, but nothing
was found there. May Dowd's room
was next searched and although Police
man CUy and Deputy Sheriff Lee
Jenkins went through everything in
the room the object of the investiga
tion was not found, although numer
ous pistols, wachesand pocket books
were discovered.
NOTES.
Mayor McCulloch states that it is
the intention to break up all such
dives as the Red Front saljon if pos
sible.
Deputy Sheriff Lee Jenkins and
Deputy Marshal W. C. Clay are en
tilled to especial credit for today's
work.
It is geuerally thought that this last
tragedy will set the al lerraen to think
ing sufficiently to rid the reservation
of the saloons.
John Rouse "was 41 years of age,
was deputy sheriff of Falls county un
der Mr. Si Whitaker and afterwards
constable of procinot No. 5. Ho was
not addiotod to tbo excessive uso of
strong drink and was well thought of
by all who 'enow him.
