WHITE GOODS.
We have just received from
New Yoik the balance of our
purchase of White Goods
that was made sometime ago
from the great sale of the
Manufacturers agents to
the jobbers. The first ship-
ment of these floods came a
month ago and were soon dis
posed of. The quality of the
materia), variety of patterns
and cheapness of price, Crea-
ted the Greatest Sensation
of the Season. Many
our customers were disappoin-
ted in finding the goods gone.
They had delayed too long and
Bargain Hunters quiekl)
bought them.
We are happy to announce our
next and last White Goods
sale will begin Monday, May
21st, 1888, and no doubt will
create as great a "Furore" as
the previous one. We are a
httle late in placing these
goods before the public, and as
the goods must be sold before
we move we have marked
them so extremely Lw as to
attract universal attention.
We urgently request our
friends not to miss tins chance

before another such oppor-
tunity occurs.

ter value has never been of-
fered. Many merchants can-
not buy them at prices we are

Plaids. They are the most
remarkable bargains ever
shown in any regular line in
this country. Prices 5c, worth

80 pieces Printed India
Linen—A 10c, worth 20c,

sands yards of remnants or
white and colored mulls, In-
dia Linens, Persian Lawns,
and Nainsooks at 7c per yard,
that in the piece would be
worth 25c. The yardage and

piece. One price and no
deviation.

MILLS FOR VICE-PRESIDENT.
The gentleman from Washing-
ton arose to inform the convention
that he had a resolution to ofler,
which waa passed to the secretary
and read as follows :
Resolved, that this convention
heartily indorses the course of the
Hon. Roger Q. Mills, chairman of
the ways and means committee in
congress, and that our delegates to
St. Louis are instructed to vote
for him for vice-preaident on the
Democratic ticket.
W. W. Seabcy,
W. A. Kincaid,
Wm. M. Flournoy.
The convention then paid at.
tention to the following resolution
which was referred to the com
mittee on platform and resolutions
without debate:
By Mr. Plemmons of Galveston.
Resolved, that we, the representa-
tives of all sections of the state of
Texas, urge the president of the
United States to request the
British minister at Washington to
have the consul of hia government
at Galveston recalled, as unfit to
represent a great people's interest
in Texas, because of reports for-
warded to the home government
utterly untrue in regard to the
soil, climate and agricultural
capacity of Texas.
Mr. Foster of Grayson, offered
the- following resolution, which
was submitted to the committee
on platform and resolutions, and
afterwards reported favorably and
adopted:
Revolved, that we favor the
cultivation of most friendly rela-
tions with our neighboring re-
public ot Mexico and of a free and
unrestricted commerce with her
people, and that our delegates to
the national convention be and are
hereby directed to advocate the
the adoption by that convention
of a resolution expressive of this
B>licy as a part of the national
emocratic platform.
Right here came a dearth of
resolutions and matters seemed in
a fair way to lag, whereupon a
delegate moved to adjourn.
The convention snowed the
motion under.
The convention then became
wild. Calls were made for Terrell,
Bailey, Shepherd, Cone Johnson,
Chilton and others. Chairman
Throckmorton called Col. 8wain
to the chair, and the calls for
speeches were renewed with vfeor
and volume, but the dasi
to predominate to hear
Bailey of Gaiaesvnttrlir
responded in a neat f pe4cl
was gretted with applause. Mr.
Bailey's speech broke the ice and
the following gentlemen responded
as their names were called:
8eth Shepherd, Hon. W. S. Hern-
don.
A messenger from the committee
on platform and reaolutiona ihen
arrived and announced that the
committee would be ready to re-
port at 11 o'clock, and that the
report would be unanimous.—
Great applause. fa ' % •
Horace Chilton then entertained
the convention for fifteen minutes
with a review of the little parties
in the state, alluding especially to
the Union Labor and Prohibition
parties. His comparisons were
rich and the boys took.ocoasion to
shake the opera house several
times during the talk.
Col. W. W. Spivy ofHendrson,
was the next speaker. He talked
good common sense on the prohi-
bition question, and advised Dem-
ocrats to bury it in a sea that
gives not op its dead forever.
Temple Houston was called for
and made a pretty speech of ten
minutes. Now and then the con-
vention would show its apprecia-
tion by raising a racket as fearful
as the artillery work on a beleag-
ured city.
When Temple sat down every-
body yelled for Bill Burgees, the
gentleman from Gaudalupe, and a
motion was carried inviting him
to address the convention.
Burgess relused to speak, at
length but he gave the boys some
advice:
"Be ye true Democrats, never
refuse a drink or scratch a ticket."
[Laughter and applause].
Mr. Pope of Harrison—"Did I
understand the gentleman from
Gaudalupe to invite the conven-
tion out to take a drink?"
R. C. Beal was called for arid '
responded in a ten minutes speech
in which he eulogized Roger Q
Mills, and shot a few licks in
upon the pro element of the con-
ventioo, and at the con
clunion of his spef-cli the
COMMITTEE ON PLATFORM AND RE-
SOLUTIONS
announced ready to report. The
announcement was received with
great applause. Hon. A. W. Ter-
rell of Travis, chairman of the
committee walked upon the plat
form and read the report as fol
lows:
Resolved 1. The Democratic
party of Texas in convention as
sembled reaffirms the principles of
the party enunciated in its national
Democratic platforms.
2. That wo endorse the views
expressed by Grover Cleveland,
our president, in his last annual
message on the subject of the
tariff.
2. That there is no power in
congress under the consitution to
lay and collect one farthing more
of tax than is necessary for the
support of the government econo-
mically administered.
4. That we commend our Demo-
cratic senators and members of
congress from Texas in their ear
nest efforts to reduce the tax bur-
den, and that we endorse the tariff
bill reported by the committee on
ways and means,commonly known
as the Mills' tariff bill.
5. That the enormous surplus
in the treasury, now reaching
$137,000,000 over and above all
lawful demands on the treasury,
is the legitimate result of the
iniquitous protectives tariff which
taxes the many to enrich the few,
and that this unjust burden on the
people emphasizes the necessity of
a speedy reduction ot the tariff to
the just and economical needs of
the government.
5- That we commend the pres
ent national Democratic adminis
tration, and instruct our delegates
to the national Democratic con
vention to cast their votes for the
renomination of Grover Cleveland.
7. That the able and impartial
administration of L. S. Ross,
governor of Texas, meets the
hearty approbation of the Demo
cracy of the state.
8. That we condemn the pools
and trust combinations of financial
power Which, now organized on a
gigantic scale, threaten with ruin
every legitimate industry invaded
by them, and we commend the
efforts being made in congress to
expose and correct them.
9. That we accept the result of
the vote on the proposed • amend-
ments of the state constitution on
the question of state prohibition,
at the election held on the 4th of
August, 1887, as a finality; and the
Democratic party of the State of
Texas deprecates and will oppose
any movement looking to the re-
opening or further agitation of the
question of state prohibition.
10. That the Democratic party
of Texas is opposed to recharter-
ing United States banks, and we
believe that all United States cur-
rency should be made a full legal
tender in the payment of all debts
hereafter contracted.
A. W. Terrell, Chairman,
The convention went into ecsta-
cies at the conclusion of the re-
port. The anti heart of oak men
yelled long and well, and the heart
of oak men accepted the situation
gracefully and joined in. When
the chairman put the report upon
its adoption, the whole body of
the convention arose en masse,
and the threatened breach had
been passed.
The motion to adjourn was car-
ried with a whoop, and the boys
went out and took a drink.

An Etcapi>(f Prisoner Killed.
Brownsville, Tex., May 22.—
Roma Abraham Resendez, who
was killed here by Deputy Sheriff
Dillard, was being taken from the
jail to the court house when he
made a break for liberty. He
was shot five times in the back
and killed. He was a quiet, gen-
tlemanly and well connected, and
married to Antonia, daughter of
I)r. Wm- Johnson, of Matamoros.
A year ago he was in good busi-
ness as a general merchant, with
a good credit. Heavily family ex-
penses drove him to desperation,
and he, with two other masked
companions, entered the store of
Don Manuel Guerra, the richest
merchant on the frontier, one
night in August last, and, at the
point of a pistol, made him dis-
gorge $5000, Resendez left a
letter to his wife confessing the
crime.

on the Texas and Pacific ran into
the rear end of No. 17, which was
going into the switch to allow No.
18 to pass. The engine is at the
bottom of the creek with ten cars
of cattle on top, mostly killed
The engineer, James Nolan, ia
badly bruised up, but was brought
home. Fireman West is fatally
hurt and was taken to the compa-
ny's hospital at Marshall. Nolan
lives here and has a family, and,
strange to say, Bart Moran, the
fngineer who was so badly hurt at
Atlanta a few days ago, is married
to a sister of Nolan's wife, both
living here, and now both of these
sisters have a badly wounded en-
gineer husband to nurse back to
health. Both men were hurt near
the same place.
State New a.
The judge of Donley county has
granted an election and the or-
ganization of Carson county in the
Panhandle, for the 12th of June,
and the field is already full ol
candidates for the various offices
of the county.
W. L. Ray, of Fort Worth, Re-
publican candidate for congress ol
the Sixth district of Texas, with-
drew from the race Tuesday. This
is done to effect a fusion between
the Republicans and the Union
Labor men. A combination of the
two parties against the Democra-
cy will make the issue doubtful.
Bruce Wilkerson and Miss Wil
lie Gober and Mr. Browning Wil-
kerson aud Miss Dora Hargott, of
Leonard, Tex., eloped Saturday
night last and went to the Indian
Territory and were married. There
is a good deal of romance sur-
rounding these marriages. The
happy couples returned Tuesday.
They haye the best wishes of the
entire community.
The land office Tuesday notified
the state treasurer to accept first
ayment on 10,000 acres of school
ands in El Paso county, all dry
grazing land, sold at $2 per acre.
Eighteen thousand acres in Old-
ham county has been leased to
one firm at 4 cents ; also 17,000 in
Hartley county. Both the above
were to Col. Abner Taylor, of the

acres of university lands in Pecos
county.
