REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.
Adopted at the Convention Aug. 29.
We the Republicans of Texas in con-
vention assembled renew our unqualified
devotion to the principles of the Repub-
lican party as set forth in the National
Republican platform adopted at Minne-
apolis in 1892.
We reaffirm the American doctrine of
protection and we favor that form of
protection to manufacturers and pro-
ducers in every branch of of Industry
which shall equalize the difference be-
tween the compensation paid to Amer-
ican labor and the earnings of labor
abr. ad.
We denounce the attitude of the Demo-
cratic Congress in legislating against the
industrial interests of the country. We
denounce their flagrant discrimination
against agricultural and pastoral growth
everywhere while fostering the combina-
tions and trusts of aggregated capital
creating and maintaining monopolies
at the expense of every consumer
and to the injury of the entire coun-
try. We po3nt with pride to the
success of the Republican policy of
reciprocity under which our inter-
change of trade had grown enormously
leading to free intercourse and freer com-
merce with every American nation and
we denounce the action of the Democratic
Congress which has abrogated these trade
relations to the injury of every interest
and every port in thecountrv.
We are in favor of sound money gold
silver and currency its volume as large
as practicable so coined and issued that
every dollar shall be equal in value the
one to the other.
We favor the endorsement of the Nica-
ragua canal proje t by tu • national gov-
ernment*
We condemn the letter of President
Cleveland to Congressman Catchings as
prolonging a condition of uncertainty
which has paralyzed the industries of the
country for the past two years and we
approve his actions in interposing the
national authority to suppress the late
riots in Chieag 1 ar.d elsewhere.
We favor equal school accommoda-
tions for all races and condemn that pol-
icy of the Texas Democracy which has
reduced the per capita appropriation of
the state schcol fund from $5 two years
ago to 13.50 or less at present; also that
the state should as early as practicable
take the necessary steps towards insti-
tuting the colored branch of the univer-
sity thus putting into effect the ex-
pressed will of the people. We denounce
in unmeasured terms the acts of the
Democratic administration in Invading
and depleting the permanent school
fund as an assault upon the noblest heri-
tage left by the fathers to the children
of Texas
We denounce the Democratic method
of finance the depletion of the state
treasury and their utter incapacity in
providing state revenues and caring for
the state’s credit.
The condition of our sheep and cattle
industry demands a radical revision of the
state laws governing the lease and sale of
state lands. We favor the leasing of
grazing lands for long terms with abso-
lute possession for such term of years
with minimum selling price confident
that such policies will result in increasing
revenues in the state.
We deplore the communistic tendencies
of Governor Hogg and his antagonism to
that spirit of national unity which
should pervade every state of this great
nation.

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying.
[By Jas. P. Newcomb.l
Judge Noonan’s letter accepting
the candidacy for Congress is as
good as gold.
* * *
The people have confidence in
the man and his consent to be
their candidate increases their de-
votion to his ca use.
♦ * •
The letter of acceptance is a
model of plain practical political
honesty; it is a platform upon
which every well-wisher of West
Texas can stand.
* * *
Above the petty bickerings of
state and local politics the gray
head of the Judge rises like a snow-
capped peak above the clouds.
* * *
A Republican in politics but a
Republican of such broad views —
such earnest purpose to serve the
people fortheir best interests that
he becomes pre-eminently the peo-
ple’s choice.
It is so earnestly the wish of the
people regardless of party to ele-
vate Judge Noonan to a place in
the councils of the nation that it
will be futile for scheming politi-
cians to prevent it.
Every man who knows Judge
Noonan knows that he is no blind
partizan and that when he goes to
Washington he will be the repre-
sentative of the whole people.
Mr. Houston the Judge’s Demo-
cratic opponent will be compelled
to run the gauntlet of much se-
vere comment. If he would lay his
ambition aside for the good of the
district he could consistently de-
clare in favor of Judge Noonan
and save himself from mortifica-
tion of defeat.
¥ * *
The people will contrast the po-
sition of the two men. Mr. Hous-
ton with one foot on the free trade
platform and the other dangling in
the air. Judge Noonan plain di-
rect emphatic for protection.
* * *
The people will weigh the digni-
fied utterances of Judge Noonan’s
letter of acceptance. It is not
only a question that effects the
owner of the flock of sheep but a
question that involves disaster to
business and to the laboring man
particularly.
* * *
Judge Noonan’s letter will meet
with general endorsement in the
12th district.

The Late Cuney Convention.
An old Republican in remarking
upon the riotous and disgraceful
scenes reported of the late Repub-
lican convention at Dallas said to
a reporter of the Light: “The late
Cuney convention held at Dallas
ought to be the last of its kind held
in this state. It was a repetition
of the convention held at Austin
before the last presidential election
tn which Cuney got off the very
same speech that he did at Dallas
and in which his colored and white
followers found great enjoyment.
The Austin convention drove out
of the so-called regular organiza-
tion a majority of the self-respect-
ing men of the party and the re-
form movement was started;
the convention at Dallas
and Its results will give to
the Reform Republican ticket the
votes of the best element of the Re-
publican party in the State. Boss-
ism especially of the Cuney va-
riety is what has driven from the
party a large body of self-respect-
ing Republicans. To secure the
return of these Republicans will be
the task of the reform party.”

Another batch of trouble has

Rev. E. E. King whom a minority

and desire his removal.
At a business meeting of the
congregation held last night the
pastor presented his resignation on
account of this feeling by the few
