We want II distinctly understood that this
column OF the HERALD Is uneQuiyocally
opposed TO Dan Hall rs Mayor lie may bG
very good for some thing but We do not
think that his ideas ofeiyil government and
political economy ut all suited TO the eXigon-
cies of the times. For instance, he has am
nounced himself as being decidedly In favor
Of issuing II sufficient amount of city script to
enable him TO carry on war against France.
He says the people of Paris have no right to
say how many curs the young ladies Of Fort
Worth shall have running down their tenn
pies and hanging over their eyes, or what
kind of hat the Mayors of Texas cities shall
wear or control any ofthe puuctlios Of our
fashionable circles, and that he proposes to
put u stop TO II. Another very im-
portant plank in his platform is
that he will, if elected, proceed
ut once TO have the Bible revised
and knock out the word SHE'LL and
substitute in its stead the word Dallas"
thereby obyiating one Of the most palpable
contradictions in that book which locates
the place of eternal punishment in another
section Of country. Now, TO be involved in
II destructive war in such close proximity TO
such place is certainly more than we can
endure yet awhile. We are opposed to such
n principle and shall endeayor to secure
Dams defeat. Colonel Kearby, promi-
nent lawyer of Dallas, is in the city to-day.

The many friends and acquaintance of

of Capt. Anderson, will be panied to hear Of
the sad and painful accident that befel her

turned and caused her to fall and break one
bone of her leg just above the ankle. Drs.
