We find the following queer course OF
reasoning In the Cleburne Telegram,
which usually is noted for its accuracy
and clearness:
Local option Is now made party Issue. The
views OF the next candidate for governor on
this Issue, are therefore OF Importance. Ia
straight Democrat Is opposed to local option
he must veto any attempted amendment i'm
proving the present local.opton law. The
next state convention cannot be silent on this
question.
The GAZETTE Is not ready to concedc
that local option Is made party issue,
but passing that by let us examine the
proposition that 'if Il straight Democrat
Is opposed to local option, he must veto
any attempted amendment improving the
present lOcal-option law
Must governor veto and thus kill
any bill that does not agree with his per-
sonal views? If so, we must have AN inqui-
sltion to ascertain the opinions of aspi-
rants whose names are presented to the
state convention for nomination TO that
Office, and see to II that no man Is nomi-
mated who cntcrtains hcrctical ideas. He
must not be 0 member of any dcnomina-
tional church, for as such he will have
to veto any bill that does not agree with
his theological dogma, L would not dc
to elect Catholic, for he must withhold
| his assent from any bill establishing and
improving public schools. lie must not
be a physician, because he viii be an ullo.
path or homnopath, and whichever he
Is he will have to veto any bill for the
benefit of the other school. Indeed, II
would be hard To find man competent
for the office who does not entertain posi-
tive views on most subjects, and he mus
forbid by his veto any law that does moi
accord with his individual opinion. 1t (,
just rs sensible TO say all this, MS that 4
governor, II he is opposed to prohibition

The constitution allows governor I,

from any bill presented to him, his actiol
is dictated by positive knowledge tina
there Is something In the proposed Law
