It is very kind ’and considerate of Mr.
Hanna to permit Mr. Platt of New York
to name the Republican nominee for vice
president. The Republican party would
never feel like its real self if i t were not
making the broadest concessions to the
bossies.

The ii'dependent political crop is sup-
posed to be flourishing in 'this country as
never before, due almost entirely to dis-
gust wit.It party methods and party chi-
canery. The number of voters who have
not gone into any party primaries this
year and do not intend' to go into' any of
them comes pretty near being la majority
of the whole. It is a new political condi-
tion which the spoilsmen -have 'taken into
account.

dering that suit be instituted against the | than one of those who would (have, the
private sewer company. The validity of
the franchise lhas been questioned in a
way that can not be ignored, and it Is
better for all concerned that the rights
oif the company be defined by the courts
as soon as possible. Furthermore, for
the city to retreat now would mean the
abandonment of municipal sewerage for
years to come, and would ultimately
greatly enhance the price which the city
■would have to pay for the private plant
under the existing contract, which -would
be declared valid by a retirement from
the present proceedings.
The 10th district has a candidate for
congressional honors who is “'a true bi-
metallist” and who thinks the tariff is the
dominant issue in the campaign. As the
Democrats and Populists are for free sil-
ver and the Republicans for gold and the
Prohibitionists divided into two factions,
gold and silver, 'the ‘True bimetallist”
ought not to have much trouble in organ-
izing a party of his own with the tariff or
anything else as the leading issue.

What is supposed to be the first trial
and conviction for violating 'the law gov-
erning primary elections has just occurred
at Sweetwater. The offender was
charged with voting in Nolan county
when his Legal residence was in Taylor
county. Inasmuch, however, as only a
fine of $1 was imposed the conviction may
not have a salutary effect. Candidates
for offices with big fees attached wouldn’t
hesitate to pay $1 apiece for illegal votes
in primary or general elections.

support of the laboring element will be
ruled off the track. The laboring men
say that they have more than one man
thoroughly qualified to represent the
county, and that they cam put up a man
who will not only meet -with favor from
their own class, but will receive the
hearty support of all. Just whom they
have in mind they decline to discuss, but
in their own good time will make it
known.
A story is going the rounds in regard to
the congressional race that may or may
not be of some significance. It is to the
effect 'that in the event the Democratic
nominee should be a free silver man there
may be a new Richmond in the field, run-
ning an independent sound money race,
and ithiat the announcement of his can-
didacy will come almost simultaneously
with the meeting of the Republican con-
gressional convention. In the event of
such ariouncement, it Is said, the Repub-
licans may conclude not to put a candi-
date in the field, but give their support to
'the independent representing their ideas
upon fii’U'.nce.

For 'some reason the local political pot
declines to boil •with any remarkable de-
gree of vigor, and although it is now less
tbkn a week until the primaries in which
•the Democrat's of 'Galveston must do
their part in shaping the affairs of the
state .government and the national gov-
ernment, so far as congress is concerned,
the rank and file, outside .of those be-
longing to ward clubs, are manifesting
no particular interest-,
However, it may be fihat the suffragists
are quietly sawing wood and maintaining
golden silence, and if such proves the
case there may be some sui'p'rises, some
disappointments and some breaking of
slates in store. Or it may be that there
will be no general iparticipation in the
primaries, and in that event 'if the work
of the county convention does not meet
with universal approval, kicks may be
looked for and the placid political sum-
mer sea may be lashed into* seething
. foam, as has time and again occurred in
. the past.
The county con vention 'Wlhiclh meets on
June 27 will send delegates to the state
nominating convention at Fort Worth,
and instructions for state offices may or
may not be made, just as the temper of
the eonvetnition may haiipen to be. It will
also send delegates to the congressional
convention,, and just w.hat it may do
upon that proposition is yet somewhat
doubtful. Delegates will be sent to the
senatorial, judicial and other conven-
tions.
A new county executive committee will
be formed, and,it is quite probable that
there will be some lively contests for the
honors. The convention may, and it is
quite probable that it will, nominte can-
didates' for the legislature, although that
matter can, if the convention so ’wills, be
left to the new' 'executive committee to
deal with 'by calling another convention
expressly for tihat purpose. The senti-
ment, however, among the leading lights
seems to be in favor of making one job of
it, and naming the iDembcratic standard
bearers for Galveston county in the con-
vention on. the 27th.
lYotwithstancling the appreaoh of the
convention no one has thus far an-
nounced .for legislative honors, but this
need not be taken as an evidence that
there are no aspirants. In fact, there are
quite a number;, .why they do not an-
nounce is perhaps best known to them-
selves. It has been suggested that a di-
vision be made in the representation
from 'Galveston countjr this year, giving
the business interests one legislator, and
■allowing- one to the labo'riiig class. May-
be this has something to do with the reti-
cence of the would be solons. Leastwise,
it is certain that .most of them want to be
the laboring man’s representative, and so
far as lhas 'been heard from but one is
ready to. sacrifice Ihimself upon the altar
as the business man’s candidate.
But the laboring men say they are not
going to accept any one to represent them
■who has not known what honest toil is,
and who can not appreciate from expe-
rience wlbat they stand in 'need of. If
they stand by this announcement more

one that is completely and readily soluble

danger in its application. For the cater-
pillar which is now infesting our shade
trees, it is the only national and sure
agent that can be applied without injury
to the tree. One application, if thorough,
is sufficient; 24 to 36 hours completes the
work.

Total 52 delegates.
Thesj figures are furnished The Trib-
une by Captain James McDonald, chair-
man of the county executive Democratic
com mil tee, 'who further sftutes that it has
always been the custom for the member
of the-executive committee for each ward
land precinct to publicly give notice
through the newspapers when possible,
that the ward or precinct book'of voters
will be open 4 or 5 days previous to the
primaries, usually from 6 to 9 o’clock each
night, at a certain place, so that every
Democratic voter entitled to 'register can
do so, There is the usual test, reciting that
the signer voted the Democratic Itickeft in
the last previous election, or in case of it
being the first vote—like a young man ar-
riving at age—that he will do so in the
primaries, etc. The hours have been put
■at from 6 to 9 p. m.„ so that all business
men and wage earners can register after
their work for the day.
Wards 1 land 12 have already opened
their club books, and ward 11 will open,
its books tomorrow night.
Democratic tickets have 'already been
named in wards 1 and 12, but there is
nothing to prevent 'Other Democrats from
selecting other names to be voted for in
Monday’s primaries.
CONG REGIONAL RACE.
As matters now stand there are but
two local candidialtes for congress, and
there is little likelihood that there will be
any new en tries in the field. In all probabili-
ty the Democratic primaries next Monday
will name for congress either Walter
Gresham or Mites Crowley. Mt. Crow-
ley’s friei-dis have been actively at Work
for some time, and within tire last day or
two it has dawned.upon the Gresham men
■that they must hustle to beat the pres-
ent congressman in Galveston county.
But they got to 'work this afternoon, and
by Monday the lines will be pretty clear-
ly drawn.

F. L. LEE, Trustee.
“I think I Ihave seen that face. I am,
in fact, almost sure I (have. Last Satur-
day a little girl 'passed by here going to-
wards the post office. 'She bad beautiful
black bair and dark eyes. Tbat attracted
my attention. She was dressed in a faded
blue dress. I^tlhink itbe face in the picture
is that of t'he little girl I saw.”
This strengthened the clew furni'shed
by the lady who lives down, the island.
But Mr. Martin had no idea where the
child had gone. So he could not help
in the iwork of locating her.
A young man who works in a grocery,
corner 27th and K, was seen, as it was
said he had seen the child. This proved a
mistake.
, The next place explored Was a. resort on
2'7th istoeet, near the bea?h. One of the
ipmiafies declared' that she had seen the
child and knew her by sight. She was
positive that she had seen her several
days 'aigo on Postffioce street, between
25th and 27th, in company with another
little girl. Here again was another link
in the original clew. But this happened
several days ago, and the girl had not
seen her since. When shown Nellie’s pic-
ture the girl said:
“That’s her. I know her, and I saw her.
on Postofficie Street.”
The irost plausible deduction which
cap be drawn from these clews is that the
child is still in Galveston, but what fate
has befallen her it is difficult to estimialte.
This morning a Tribune reporter called
alt the residence of Mrs. Davis. That lady
said her offers of reward for information
of th© whereabouts of 'the 'child had pro-
duced absolutely no reply. She had heard
nothing at all. and was more in the dark
than ever. She had positively no new
facts to give, or any new theories to ad-
vance which could aid the officers or the
reporters in their search. Sergeant De-
laya is working heart and soul on the
case. “I am a poor mian,” said lie, this
morning, when he and a reporter had run
run down a wrong scent, “but I would
give $50 out of my own pocket to find 'that
child.”
But 'it was no use. The mystery re-
mains unsolved, though the search is be-
ing unremittingly prosecuted.

The mystery Nellie Shaw remains
unsolved. Not a fimce of 'the Child has
been found .since the moment she left ‘her
aunt’s house at No. 27'35 Broadway last
'Thursday 'mornftsaig. Clew® and counter
clews have been followed by the police
and by Tribune reporters. When run
down all of them resulted in—nothing.
The police thought they had succeeded in
locating the child. They were reasonably
sure that she was in good hands. They
had .good grounds, as they thought, upon
Which to base their hopes. But they were
■mistaken. The child .has simply faded
out of sight without'leaving a trace be-
hind her.
The police are at sea. At first "it was
thought that the child had fallen Into
good hands. The police thought this.
They think so yet. But they appear to
have no good grounds for so thinking. It
begins to look as if the child 'is not in
good hand's after all. Everywhere Trib-
une reporters have 'been, and they have
been all over this town from east to west,
and from north, to south, persons are
found who have read the story in last
Sunday’s Tribune of the mysterious dis-
appearance of the little girl. But the
same answer follows all questions.
‘‘We’ve read about it in The Tribune,
but we have not -seen her.”
■But those who are working on the case
refuse to be discO'Unaged. They hope on
iwhere there seems to be no hope tihat the
Child is yet in Galveston. It seems rea-
sonably sure that she has not left the
city.
This morning a driver of an .ice wagon
declared that the keeper of a grocery
store at the corner of l'2 th and M had seen
a lost Child in that neighborlhood. Ser-
geant Delaya, who is working night and
day on t'he case, and a Tribune reporter
went at once to the store. The pro-
prietor declared she had never said any
such thing. She had read in The Tribune ‘
about it, but that is all she knew.
Later a report reached the 'searchers
that a lady who -resides down the island
and who knows the Child well had seen
her on Pos-toffice -street between 25th and
26th streets two days ago. This at last
looked -like a clew. Inquiry was made all
along that street. 'There are some houses
of ill repute in that neighborhood, and
they were all explored, but no- signs of the
mis-siing Child was found. The child’s pic-
ture was shown to a hundred people, hut
none of them had seen her. At last an-
other link in this clew was found.
Mr. Henry -Martin, who keeps a saloon,
corner of '25th and Church, was shown
the Child’s picture. He looked at it
steadily for a moinent. Then he said:

iSo far a® Galveston county is con-
cerned, tlhe race for congress lies be-
lt ween Gresbam and Crowley, and the
Democratic primaries next Monday ‘will
decide which it shall be.
A® interior county instructions now
stand in the tenth district—-and- all
county conventions have been held ex-
cept Galveston—there is no majority
ichoii-ce, and 'Galveston holds the key to
flie situation. Mr. Gresham has a suf-
ficient -number of instructed and second
choice delegates, with Galveston’s 1'3
votes, to give him the nomination after
the first instructions are -satisfied by one
or two ballots.
If Mr. Crowley has any interior instruc-
tions, first or second choice, they have
not been made known.
Therefore, as a mere matter of avail-
lability 'between two Galveston candi-
dates, Mr. Gresham has the call.
But tbat is a very unworthy and un-
patriotic method of deciding which shall
!be the choice of Galveston. The nomina-
tion should be made upon the merits of
the two men for the position. Upon this
proposition the public is fully prepared
for an expression of The Tribune’s judg-
ment in favor of Mt. Gresham. It is al-
ways unpleasant to have to draw paral-
lels 'between two .fellow citizen-s, and The
Tribune i-efrains from any expression or
any recital of Mr. Crowley’s shortcom-
ings as a national legislator except to
say that in comparison with Mr. Gresham
in the same capacity he falls far below
the requirement of the times and the
issties which the next congress must set-
tle.
Passing over the details of -the last con-
gress-i-onal campaign in- this district as a
memory of unpleasant -savor, and with
naugQit but the kindliest feelings for Mr.
Crowley as a private citizen, it must
nevertheless be recalled as a fact of local
political history that Mr. Crow-ley, the
last Democratic nominee, carried his
home county, which is normally Demo-
'crntic, only by a narrow plurality, and
with the same Republican opponent two
years previously Mr. Gresham carried the
county by a handsome majority. We are
sot aware of any achievement of Mr.
Crowley during his congressional term
which has strengthened' him in this
county or of any condition that gives
promise -of a larger following than he
had in the -last election.
These facts conclusively show that the
people of Galveston do not want Mr.
Crowley In congress, and -if perchance
the Democratic primaries next Monday
should show-a prima facia indorsement
it will be because -the conservative Demo-
crats, who are always- indifferent to po-
litical mistakes until after they have oc-
curred, do not attend the primaries.
And that is the main point of this ex-
hortation to activity. Mr. Crowley -and
Ibis friends ^are earnestly at work, as
they have a right to be and as they should
he in the energy of political conviction,
and if the friends of Mr. Gresham do
not bestir themselves Galveston county’s
voice will <be for Crowley, ’Whatever her
real conviction may be.
The only candidates offering, perhaps
the only candidates presently available,
are Crowley and Gresham, and one of
these wi ll be named as- the choice of Gal-
veston Democrats by next Monday’s pri-
maries. It rests with the Democrats of
Galveston to say which it shall be.
THE KITTIE WON.
At 3 o’clock yesterday -evening the yacht
race, postponed -from morning, was com-
menced. They was a good -breeze from
the south land eVey.thing was propitious-.
The Irma waS the first to cross the line,
and she was followed to order by the
Kittie, iStranger and Hornet. The Irma
'held the lead all -through the race, and
came in 4 minutes amd 17 second® ahead of
the Stranger, which- had been the favorite.
The Irma made the race in 3.25.23, 20 min-
utes within the time limit.
The Kittie won the race in 3.25.14, With
■the Irma .second to 3.25.23, Stranger third
in 3.26.53 and -the Hornet fourth in 3.36.41.
The Kittie won -on time allowance.

Houston 'is still dropping down the per-

capital and -t'he ceaseless roar of the water
as it pours over the dam -seems to have
worked a spell on them. Yesterday they
were shut out, making but three hits off
McCormick. Austin had six errors regis-
tered and Houston five.

LEAGUE MEETING.
At a meeting of the Texas-Southern
league at Austin yesterday it was decided
to close the present series July 3 and open
a second series July 4.
The Dallas franchise was taken -away
from McNealus and awarded to L. H.
Vendig.
Paris was awarded the Sherman fran-
chise.
Upon request -of President Ward, the
control of umpires for the next 30 days
is with 'Secretary Barbisch.
The Austin-Galveston protested game of
April 29 was declared no game. The
Houston-Sherman protest game was left
as it is on a -tie vote.
The protested game between San An-
tonio and Galveston on June 11, and in
which Work claimed a forfeiture of $50,
because the San Antonio team left the
grounds at the close of t'he ninth inning,
was compromised by awarding -the game
to Galveston without forfeiture.
