no new convert to Terrellism, and has
ever cOntended that he stands in the front
rank and well up to the head of our pub

Terrell is man of genius; he is a bold.
fearless speaker. He is man of pro-
found thought, consummate logic and
rare facility of expression. His diction
Is that of the perfect scholar, and his elo-
quence is of the highest type. But above
all, he is a patriot. the peoples true
friend, the great commoner of Texas. All
in alive consider that ne is without a peer
in the broad state of Texas. !
and with few, if any superiors in the {
VIII lie country. If the people of Texas s
fail to give Terrell the highest official 5
responsibility and honor within their :
gift, they will, in our judgment, prove un- t
true to themselves, and unmindful of the :
,ountry's interests.
