TO BE OFFICIALLY NOTIFIED OF
HIS NOItl I NATION IOR
VICE-PRESIDENT
On the Prohibition Ticket--Tlie
Notification Committee Coming-in—
A Lar^e .YIeetinsi Tonight of
Prohibitionists in and out of the
State—Sketch of tlie Fife of Dr.
Cranfili.
The Democrats when they deoided
to have a public notification meeting
in New York to inform officially the
candidates for president and vice-pres-idem,
made a new departure in poli-ties.
Nothing of that kind was ever
heard of before but the idea is popu-lar
all the game and the Prohibition-iste
are going to Bhow the country
that they can indulge in the notifica
tion business themselves.
To night at 8:30 o’clock at the city
hall Dr. J. B Cranfili will be pub-liclv
notified by the committee ap-«
pointed for that purpose, of his nomi-nation
as oandidate for vice-president
of the United Spates on the Prohibi-tion
ticket.
The hotification committee consists
of Hon. Geo. C. Christian ot Eureka
Ark., ‘'Rev. Sam W. Small of At-lanta
Ga., Hon, E C. Heath, Rook-wall
Tex., D. Ward King Maitland
Mo. and John T. Farmer Athens Ala.
Of these gentlemen Hon’s. Geo. C.
Christian and E. C. Heath came in
this morning and most of the others
are expected this afternoon. Hon,
D. M. Prendergast is in the city to
attend the meeting to-night. Judge
Prendergast is the prohibition candi-date
for governor and is an enthusi
astic prohibitionist. Judge Heath
one of the notification committee is
chairman of the state executive com
mittee of the Prohibition pirty.
The meeting will be called to order
at 8:30 and Hon. Geo. C. Christian
will deliver the notification address.
Dr. Cranfili will reply and it is expec-ted
of course these two speeches will
consume pretty near all the time, but
there will perhaps be brief speeches
by other distinguished gentlemen and
the meeting made a very pleasant af-fair.
A SKETCH OF DR CRANFILL.
The Advance, the organ of the
prohibition party of Texas, has the
following sketch of the life of Dr.
Cranfili, issued in suppliment form:
“Dr. J. B. Cranfili. the nominee of
the prohibition party at Cincinnati,
June 30th, 1892, for Vice-President,
comes of pioneer peop'e. His ances-tors,
years ago, followed Daniel Boon
into the “dark and bloody” ground of
Kentucky; and bis father moved to
Parker county, Texas, when that was
on the extreme frontier. Here, 35
years ago, the subject of our sketch
was born.
“Dr. Cranfill’e father was a farmer,
country physician and preacher, and
from him and the early life on the vast
prairies far from towns and in the
haunts of nature, the boy imbibed the
independence and fearlessness which
are such marked traits in his char-acter.
•‘As a boy, his life was spent in the
school room, on the farm and occupied
as a cow-boy. At seventeen he left
home to carve out his own life, and
like many young men ambitious for
learning and success. Dr. Cranfili
began teaohing in the country schools.
While so employed at Crawford in his
present home county, a few days
before he was twenty years of age he
married Miss Okie Allen.
“His restless mind was always
busy, and within a few years he fitted
himself for and began the practice of
medicine at Turnersville, a little vil-lage
in Coryell county. Here the
journalistic fever took hold on the
young physician and he devoted his
spare time to a newspapor venture.
The writer weli recollects seeihg the
first numbor of the paper, marked
with the keen wit and ready repartee
of its editor. Afterwards he began
the publication of the Gatesville Ad-vance
at the county seat of Coryell
county, and in a few years the paper
came to be known as the leading tern
peranee organ of the southwest.
“For years, as a Democrat, Dr.

Cranfili labored for temperance legis-lation
in that party, and he came to
be looked upon as a man of growing
political influence; but when he was
finally convinced that if the temper-ance
workers were not dead they had,
like the frontiersman’s com, “just
naturally gin out,” he left them and
turned all his energy and persever
ance into building up the Prohibition
party in Texas, in 1886 he called
the first Prohibition Convention ever
held in the State, which convention
put a ticket in the field headed by
Col. E L Dahoney, polling 2o,ooo
votes—largely due to Dr. Cranfill’s
untiring efforts.
“In December 1886, he moved his
paper to Waco, his present home, and
did grand Work in the prohib tion
amendment campaign in Texas in
I887 In this fight it was that Dr.
Cranfili showed his true metal though
several time? threatened with assassi-nation
and once actually assaulted, he
never faltered; but continued the bold
had fearless war on the liquor traffic
that made him so feared and hated by
that people.
“After the amendment was defeat-ed,
Dr. Cranfili was compelled to sell
out his paper on account of the apathy
of prohibitionists. He accepted the
position of financial secretary of
Baylor University. Afterwards he
became superintendent of the Baptist
mission-work in Texas: and in March,
1892, he resigned the latter position
and purchased an interest in and
took charge of the Texas Baptist
Standard, which he has lately moved
from Dallas to Waco. He is also
connected with the Advance, the offi-cial
journal of the prohibition party
in Texas, as editor.
“His able editorial work has given
him a national reputation; his labors
for his denomination have given him
high standing among Baptists of the
south; ability and perseverance in pro-bibition
work have made him trusted
and admired among prohibitionists
everywhere, and his cheerful kind-ness,
generous character and fund of
good humor have made him honored
and loved among all people who know
him ”
INJUNCTION CONTINUED.
Judge Goodrich Decides Against
the Mayor
The injunction case was adjourned
jesterday afternoon at a late hour and
was resumed at 9 o’olock this morn-ing
The discussion was concluded at 10
and the court entered an order con-tinuing
the injunction as heretofore
granted in full force and effect, The
petitioners were required to give bond
in the sum of 11000. Iffie case will
come up at thr regu’ar term of the
district court for final disposition.
Dragooning Won’t Do!
Not with the liveer. Violent chola-gogues,
like calomel and blue pill,
administered in “heroic” or excessive
doses, as they often are, will not per-manently
restore the activity of the
great hepatic organ, and are prcduc-tive
of muoh mischief to the system
generally. Institute a healthful re-form,
if inactivity of the liver exists,
with Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters,
which insures a regular discharge of
the secretive function of the over,
and piomotes due action of the bow-els
without griping or weakening
them. The discomfort and tender-ness
in the right side, nausea, fur
upoD the tongue, yellowness of the
skin and eyeballs, whioh characterize
chronic' biliousness, disappear, and
digestion—always interfered with by
biliousness—resumes its former activ-ity.
The Bitters annihilates malarial
oomplaints, rheumatism, kidney
trouble, and is a promotor of healthful
reposp.
