Political snips from Lagarto to Texas conventions
A kaleidoscope of early 20th century political chatter spans Texas party factions, Houston convention echoes, and Attowney Newton’s park fee ruling. It notes Lagarto’s new Tax Critic paper, Morrison bill debates, free trade stance, Chinese exclusion squabbles, and weather quip from Boerne Register. General Logan draws large Chicago crowds as GOP unity appears tentative amidst New York paper endorsements for Cleveland and Butler.

A preacher in Hill Street Methodist ranks Judas as a needed agent in the drama of redemption.
