AUSTIN, TEX, June l0.-The land
board has received a petition Of large
number Of citizens of Fisher county pro-
testing against the manner Of surveying
school lands in that county now being
carried on by the state.
The following important letter from
Attorney General Templeton was issued
to-day. One firm here in Austin owns
over 100, 900 acres in certificates, which
they propose soon to locate IN Greer

the statement in public prints that some
one is about starting from here to the

tilcates in Greer county. | beg to pro-
test with YOU against your doing any

is no more authority for locating them
there, veteran or any other Kind OF GER
tincataS, and veterans no more than any
other kind. thsn there Is on patented land

eide the issue against the claims OF the

county the claims Of the patentees would
of course fall with it, and they would be
saved the very considerable expenses OF
defending the contemplated suits. did
not then suppose that further attempts
would be made to appropriate the land
situated IN The county which was
long ago expressly reserved from location
and set apart for specific purposes To
receive the certificates and make the

The people are willing to give the dem
ocratio candidate for governor a great
deal Of latitude. He is looked upon
by his party associates as well as by
those who are for his brother, as a big,
good. natured, loyeable sort OF a boy.
and on all hands II is conceded that he
may indulge in all visionary extrav.
agencies incident to the big boy" pc
riod. He has a vivid imagination
and being on top of a big boom, it Is
natural that he should look upon the
bright side of his own picture and upon
the dark side of the picture he don't like.
Hence we are not disposed TO hold him tn
the strict account that we would an older
and more experienced politician,
But when he goes so far as TO say that
the democrats have done a great deal for
education and the republicans very
little, il is time TO call him TO account, Ii
should be done for his own good, and in
tina, spirit We call attention TO it, He is
a young man yet and has bright pros
poets for the future. He can't afford 10

Bob means TO keep himself somewhere
in the neighborhood Of truth-this Is
generally recognized. Hence, when he
gets of q great big whoppcr ike the

that Democrats have done a great deal
for public school education and the Re
publicans very little" even s school boy
knows that it isn't true, and If he meant
it as joke it is without point
For instance. in Tennessee the public
school fund amounts & about two dollars
per head of the scholastic population.
In Ohio 1t is about thirteen dollars per
head. Tennessee is a democratic state;
Ohio is a republican state. Bob didn't
know these things, but being a candidate
for governor, there are people who think
he ought to have known them. They
don't believe he would knowingly mis-
represent facts, and hence credit him
with ignorance. Had he perpetEated 8

been all right, but it lacks the merit Of q

FROM HANCOCK.

SNEEDvILLE, Sept. 21.-Circuit court
in session here this week. There are
more people in town than for many years.
Judge A. ]. Brown administered the oath
of Office to Hon. II. t. Campbell, Attor-
ney General elect, as well as to Z. D.
Bowen, the new circuit clerk, and 80 the
court starts out. new entirely; and al
though new we must say that the people
Of the county and circuit have assurance
Of business being conducted on business
principles. The charge of Judge Brown
to the grand jury was such as to call
forth the Communication Of the bar and
all who listened thereto. 1t gave unmis-
taxable evidence that his ability as a law.
yer is infefior to no one who has presid-
ed over the courts of this circuit since
the war. The course adopted for the
dispatch of business and indicated for
the future, shows him to be eminently
fitted for the high position to which he
has been elected, and gives to the com
munity and society the promise of that
security which nothing short of a just
and proper administration Of the crimi-
nal laws Of the country can bring about.
We are glad to see such men as Colonel
Brown called to such places of trust and
honor. Starting from the humble walks
in life, step by step he has won his way
to that placerin the hearts of his people
where they are willing TO confde 10 his
care and keeping that power established
for the preservation of the peace and Or
order of the community and the safety
and security Of its citizens.
Attorney General Campbell starts just
as If he had been moulded for the identi-
cal place, and ! predict that Tyler will
not only make a most excellent prosecut-
ing attorney, but will prove himself to be
one of the coming young men Of the
country. He has the time ahead of him,
the brains and the opportunity.
Hon. John w. Brown made a speech
to a large audience here to-day, and his
talk was well received, for John has
many friends here and will carry the par.
ty strength over the head of all opposi-
ton. Judge Butler also began his can

Some of the Democratic dailies, forget
ting their missions as journals of public
information and intelligence above all
things, from day to day reprint garbled

dates that are clearly intended to create
the impression that the canvass is Q very
one.sided performance with great differ.
ence in favor of Bob. A true report of
