THE statement that Adjutant General King
is daily receiving letters from various counties

properly, is food for careful ihcuPht. The
FIRST idea which 1t suggests is the ineffciency
Of the county officers and the lack Of rightly
balanced public opinion to force them 10 dis
charge their Official duties "without fear, favor
or affection" The citizens should give the
county officers their moral supper, at all tunes
and under all circumstances when they are
endeavofing to perform their duty, and when
ever there is necessity for it they should turn
out as a posse eomitatus to aid the officers
The habit of depending on the rangers is
wrong in all respects add should be discon-
tinued. Tha military should not be called in
upon every trivial occasion in regularly organ
ized counties with full complement Of
county and beat officers. The Legislature

agricultural section, and that Eastern Texas
holds the power in the Legislature.

reasons assigned for the reduction are that

nine regiments of infantry, one battalion
of cavalry and three batteries of artillery.
