clusion that it is not such a bad ticket.
CONSOLIDATE.
It is gratifying to Evening Tribune
to have the Progressive association take
hold of its pet hobby—the consolidation
of the governments of city aud county.
This has been advocated in season and
out of season by Evening Tribune. We
realized that the much desired end would
never be attained unless the citizens—
taxpayers—would take hold of the case.
While it is true that everything that can
be said on the subject is in its favor and
nothing against, still unless taken
in hand by those interested it could
never be attained. The authority to
effect this consolidation must come from
the state legislature and in view of the
fact that this question will come before
that body those interested should
unite in seeiug that competent men are
sent from Galveston. We do not know
how either Messrs. Claiborne or Gresham
stand upon this matter, but we do know
that they will obey what they believe to
be the wish of a majority of their con-
stituency. So important a legislative en-
actment could not be entrusted to better
hands and for this aud many other reasons
we hope to see them elected.
The Democratic county executive
committee, which meets this evening,
has important work before it. The suc-
cess of the ticket will depend largely
upon the action of this committee. The
men who compose it are fully aware of
the importance of effective action.
Ip the Progressive Association con-
summate the consolidation of the county
and city governments, and do nothing
more, it will have accomplished more
practical good for Galveston than any
other body of men have done since her
incorporation. Even twt nty five per cent,
reduction of local taxation will be a great
boon.
Mr. Crain keeps the old lady hopping
around pretty lively this warm weather.
The Austin Call has turned up its little
toes, and it will squirt no more gall at
Galveston.
Encouragement for the Feeble.
So long as the failing embers of vital-
ity are capable of being re-kindled into a
warm and genial glow, just so long there
is hope for the weak aud emaciated in-
valid. Let him not, therefore, despond,
but derive encouragement fu m this, and
from the further fact that there is a re-
storative most potent in renewing the dil-
apidated powers of a broken down sys-
tem Yes, thanks to its unexampled tonic
virtues, Hostetter’s Stomach Birters is
daily reviving strength in the bodies and
hope in the minds of the feeble and nerv-
ous. Appetite, refreshing sleep, the ac-
quisition of flesh and color, are blessings
attendant upon the reparative processes
which this priceless invigorant speedily
initiates and carries to a successful con-
clusion. Digestion is restored, the blood
fertilized, aDd sustenance afforded to
each life-sustaining organ by the Bitters,
which is inoffensive even to the feminine
palate, vegetable in composition, and
thoroughly safe. Use it and regain vigor.
Instantly Relieved.
The movement to consolidate city and
county governments will be opposed by
tax eaters every time.
A piece of campaign literature is pretty
thoroughly exposed on the first page of
this issue. The exposure will bear read-
ing.
Tub News makes a serious assertion
against a public man and when ssked to
prove it resorts to the hoodlumism: “ ’Er
don’t haveter.”
Mrs. Ann Lacour, of New Orleans, La.,
writes: “I have a son who has been
sick for two years; he has been attended
by our leading physicians, but all to no
purpose. This morning l, e had his usual
spell of coughing, and was so greatly
prostrated in consequence, that death
seemed imminent. We had in the house
a bottle of Dr Wm. Hall’s Balsam for the
Lungs, purchased by my husband, who
noticed your advertisement. We admin-
istered it and he was instantly relieved.”
With the city and county consolidated,
a bridge to the main land, and a railway
down the coast Galveston would step
several paces to the front.
The Prohibition Republicans are hold-
ing a national convention at Chicago and
they have adopted a platform that should
immediately crush the rum power.
The weather has now settled, and bus-
iness men feel more hopeful. The fall
season promises to be very good. Orders
left during the interstate drill are now
being filled.
Bill Chandler declines to support Mr.
Blaine for reoomination. As it is pretty
late in the day for Bill to think of im-
proving His moral reputation, he prob-
ably opposes Blaine because he thinks it
poor politics to support him.
A Washington dispatch says: It is a
notable fact that the aggregate coinage
of standard silver dollars to date has just
reached an amount equal to the amount
of gold coin and bullion held by the
government. Each is about $239,000,-
000.

lots. A. J. Truchard & Co.

Saved His Life.
Mr. D. L. Wileoxson, of Horse Cave,
Ky., says he was, for many years, badly
afflicted with Phthisic, also Diabetes;
the pains were almost unendurable and
would sometimes almost throw him into
convulsions. He trid Electric Bitters
and got relief from the first bottle, and
after raking six bottles was entirely
cured and had gained in flesh eighteen
pounds. Says he positively believes he
would have died had it not been for the
relief afforded by Electric Bitters. Sold
at fifty cents a bottle by J. J. Schott &
Co. 6
The surplus capital of Galveston in-
vested in factories, would make her,
inside of three years, a city of 100,000
inhabitants. Give us spindles, furnaces,
and Saturday night pay rolls, and our
word for it dull times will come again no
more.
If anyone doubts that the Democrats
are trying to paralyze the trade, ruiu the
industries, and destroy the commerce of
the country, that doubt will be dispelled
by a perusal of the Republican platforms.
The Democrats, not being engaged in any
business pursuits, have no interest in the
prosperity of the country, and would no
doubt rejoice if they could involve them-
selves in the general ruin that would fol-
low if their conspiracy against its trade,
its commerce, its manufactures, and its
agriculture should succeed.
Miraculous Escape
VV. W. Reed, druggist, of Winchester,
Ind., writes: ‘‘One of my customers,
Mrs. Louisa Pike, Bartonia, Randolph
Go., Ind., was a long sufferer with con-
sumption and was given up to die by her
physicians. She heard of Dr. Kind’s
New Discovery for consumption and be
tran buying it of me. In six mouth’s
time she walked to this city a distance of
six miles, and is now so much improved
she has quit using it. She feels she owes
her life to it.” Free trial bottles at J. J.

edies to little purpose. I believe Rosa-

by a friend. I have taken two bottles,

Recommended by a Majority of the Com-
mittee on Platform.
Galveston, T<-xas; August 12, 18S6.
j —To Hon R M. Wynne, President Deui-
| ocratic Convention of Texas: The Demo-
cratic party of Texas hereby declare the
I following platform of principles:
1. We, the Democrats of Texas, ex-
! press our hearty oatisf action with the
I administration of our distinguished presi-
j dent, the Hon. Grover Cleveland, and
1 testify our confidence in his ability, puri-
[ ty and integrity.
2. We pledge ourselves that the cur-
rent public expenditures shall be confined
within the current revenue.
3. We recommend the submission to
the popular vote of an appropriate
amendment to the judiciary article of
our cot stitution, so as to secure a more
efficient and prompt administration of
law.
4. We favor the best system ef educa-
tion for white and colored children in
separate common schools, which may be
provided by liberal, wiihout excessive,
taxation. We believe that the education
of the children is a matter of State right
and duty, and that the Congress of the
United States has no right to appropriate
money to its aid. We congratulate the
people of Texas upon the successful es
tablishrm nt of our State University, and
we recommend the enactment of legisla-
tion to remove the same, as far as possi-
ble, from all political influences, and thar
its properties and revenue shall be strict-
ly guarded, increased and fostered so far
as it can be done without taxation upon
the people.
5. We believe that the true policy of
the State with respect to her public lands
is to provide for their sale, in tracts of
reasonable size with reference to*their
quality and uses, at fair prices and upon
long credit, to bona fide settlers for home-
stead purposes. We fav<r such a classifi
cation of the school,university and asylum
lands as may permit the unconditional
leasing, for short terms of lands only fi;
for grazing; and that the remainder niaj
be leased temporarily and entirely sub-
ject to the right, of the state to sell to
actual and bona fide settlers, And to these
ends we favor the enactment of laws to
compel the removal of trespassers and
free-grazers from the public lands, and
to force the payment of rent for their
use; and to fix absolutely the rental price
of lands to be leased. There should be
such legisiatiou as will make it practic-
able to enforce all laws intended to pre
vent the illegal use of the school or othei
public lauds of the state.
6. We pledge ourselves to encourage
and fester all works of internal improve-
ment, and the development of the manu-
facturing interests of the state.
7. We d nounice the unlawful inter-
ference with or injury to corporate prop-
erty and corporate rights, as equally in-
tolerable as is such interference with or
injury to the rights of a citizen. And
while we recognize the high obligation
pf the Democratic party to control and
subordinate all public corporations to the
general good we pledge ourselves to en-
act aud enforce all laws that may be nec-
essary to protect their property .from every
danger from whatever source the same
may come.
8. The Democratic party looks with
apprehension upon the fact that foreign
railway corporations have acquired con-
trol of the railways of Texas in violation
of the provisions of the constitution ; and
protest against tbA methods by which
they are being opei xted. We pledge our-
selves to pass laws to correct abuses and
prevent unjust discriminations; to compel
all railways doing business in this state to
maintain an officein thestateincompliance
with Section Three, Article X of the
Constitution ; and we pledge ourselves to
secure by law the right of the state to in-
spect all the books, belonging or apper-
taining to the organization, operation
and business of the railways of Texas.
We protest against the consolidation of
parallel and competing lines in the state
and pledge ourselves that laws shall be
passed and enforced to correct this evil.
We pledge ourselves to pass general laws
forfeiting to the state all lands heretofore
granted to railway corporations, where
such corporations have failed to comply
with the terms of their charters, or have
failed in good faith to alienate theirlands
within the period fixed by law.
9. We believe that stockholders in pri-
vate corporations should be held liable to
pay the debts of the corporation to the
amount due on Iheir stock, and an addi-
tional amount equal to the stock owned
by them, aud that the legislature shall
regulate and fix the terms upon which
private corporations may do business in
this state. And that laws shall be passed
prohibiting corporations not chartered by
the laws of this state from buying or
leasing the public lands of this state or
any of the School, University or Asylum
lands.
19. We believe that the existing law
of our state for the protection of me-
chanics and laborers by lien should be
comprehensive and efficient, to the eod
that the real laboier may be thoroughly
protected.
11. We declare that all state convicts
should be confined within the walls of
the penitentiary; and it is the duty of
the legislature to provide penitentiaries
sufficient for this purpose. We are also
in favor of a reform school cr house of
correction for minors and females con-
victed of offenses to the end that they may
be separated from the adult convicts of
the state.
12. We ^lo not believe that the views
of any citizen upon the question of local
option should interfere with his stand-
ing in the Democratic party; aud we de
clare the question to be one in which
every Democrat may indulge his own
views without affecting his Democracy.
13. The Democrats of Texas declare
that it is the duty of the general govern
mant to protect and defend the humblest
American citizen against the unlawful
acts of any and all nations; and that de-
cisive action in demanding indemnity for
past and existing grievances, and security
for the future will meet with the unquali-
ed approval of the Democracy of Texas.
