Datuas, Tex., Oct. 6—Fusion be- tween the republicans and populists and gold standard democrats of Texas has atlength been definitely aecom- plished, and the state must be placed henceforth in the doubtful column, with the chances unfavorable to Bryan. W. Cuney, the colored leader, who was formerly the national committeeman, said to-da “It is a fact that has for more than two weeks existed between the republicans and populists in Texas. The agreements thus far arrived at are kept from the public for reasons considered judicious by the leaders. The republicans are openly supporting the populist state ticket and most of the county tickets, what we are to get in return for this is, of course, anti- Bryan electors ANOTHER COMBINATION. Now the Farmers of Kaw Valley Want to Corner the Potato Market. Kansas © Mo., Oct. 6.—The po- tato growers of the Kaw valley have effected a combine and an effort will be made to have the railroads extend the low rates to Texas for the next 30 days, in order that the growers may have time to dirs their potatoes. The members of the combine also intend to hold the price of their crop at not lower than 25 cents per bushel, and if this price cannot be ob- tained they will hold them for at least 30 days. They say that they can clear at least cents on every bushel shipped to Texas, and unless the loeal dealers will pay that price they will ship. The growers claim that it costs them 20 cents to raise their potatoes, and they will not sell for cost, if they can help it. PINGREE’S POTATOES.
