IL out. He is one Of the best lawyers IN
the state, Young or old; this, with his
merit as a sober, decorons gentleman,
makes him strong man.--[ Franklin
Herald.
Swain IS marching on. Every turn OF
the wheel brings him closer to the hearts
of the people and therefore nearer the
gubernatorial chair Paris News.
The papers over the state are anxious
TO know who would make an acceptable
lieutenant governor. We know OF no
man who would make more acceptable
one than Col. X. IL. Quinn Rusk
Standard
Dave Culberson's son, Charles, suits us
for attorney general OF Texas. II Alvarado
Bulletin.
The most sensible act of Judge Terrills
life would be to stable his 'mulc," and
keep out OF the race for the senate.
Should he make the race he will lind out
when tits too late that the News advice
in this connection was golden Paris
News.
II VIC had our way about the matter we
would give the state some farst-class OH
cials at the next election, but as we
haven't, Wen not say anything more
abOnt II in this issue, except that Sui
Ross would make dog-gono good gov
ernor.-[ Kosse Cyclone.
The industrious gentleman who so
positively announced Mr.. Throckmorton'
candidacy for governor, presumably ia
the interest OF Gen. Ross, should try his
hand again. But the News would rise TO
remark that such tactics will neither de-
feat SWANS nor secure Ross nomina-
tion. Better "tote fair."-Denison News.
Swain is gaining ground constantly.
With the sober, second thought of the
people, his admirable business qualities
and his shrewd acumen Is making a last.
Ing Impression, and one that will lift him
undoubtedly TO the chief magistracy OF
this great state - Sulphur Springs Ga.
Zette.
The Fort Worth GAZETTE quietly re.
marks that Chas. A. Culberson OF Jeffer-
son, Tex, would be acceptable TO the
people for Encouragement. SO he would
GIVE the young Cicero of Marion county
chance and he will bound quickly TO the
political ornament among the brightest
stars OF the constellation. - TSulphur
Springs Gazette.
B. II. Rice would shed luster on the
bar OF Texas in the Office OF attorney-gcn-
eral.- Marlin Bail.
Swain is the favorite candidate for gov
ernor with large majority OF news
papers which Is a plain indication of his
strength with the people. - Calvert Con-
scrvative.
WIN the Hon. Seth Shepard ever com
pete for Wellborn's seat in congress? We
would like to see Shepard in the house
and Wellborn in the senate Bryan En-
terprisc.
In reading A. w. Terrell's great speech
on corporations one cannot help but think
that the author OF that speech would
make a shining light in the United States
sonate.-- Marlin Ball.
We see that "Uncle Billn Upton of Fay
cite county Is being talked about for
comptroller. We have always been sweet
on Uncle Bill, but win have to give him
the shake this time. AT more convent
ent season we will be pleased TO leg for
the gentleman from Fayette. After Ogles-
by Ills the Office for IL term or two Uncle
Bill can rest his avoirdnpois In the comp
troller's big chair Mckinney Demo
crat.
Terrell is an able man, au orator and
willy politician, but we believe the next
legislature viii decide that his public
services are needed more at home than ia
Washington Abilene Reporter.
w. j, Swain seems to be very generally
iGdorstd by the people and press for the
next governor of Texas. The papers
throughout the state that are not favora-
Bile To him are few In number
compared with those for him. Swain
In his position OF comptroller
has given the people of Texas abundant
evidence OF his good sense and statesman
ship. He Is always with the people ON
AL important questions where the interest
OF the taxpayer Is involved, and If he Is
net rewarded by being made the next gov
ernor OF Texas the Chronicle Is poor
Of the indications pointing
that way. The Chronicle viii give It's
support TO the best mnn, and ut present 1t
believes that Swain is the best man in all
Texas Tor the next governor Cleburne
Chronicle.
Among other extracts from the ''inte-
rlor papers" as Indicative of the popular
feeling in favor of Judge Terrelrs candl.
dacy, the Galveston News copies the first
half OF an editorial from this paper, which
the striking similarity between
Stephens report and the
Terrell land bill OF two years ago. There
was not a word said about the United
States senatorship In our little article, yet
we are hcrded among other papers as
favoring the distinguished gentleman's
claims To the position. You might as
well sny we favor Rut,haga Johnson for
governor because we indurse his views on
modern education.- Burnet Bulletin,
Mills IL the man all Texans would de-
light TO honor. Let the people assert
themselves and demand his election 70
the United States senate. ~ Greenyille
Appeal,
II one can Judge the future by the pres
ent, the nomination Of W. j. Swain for
governor could be predicted now with
good reason. - Fort Worth GAZETTE.
Correctl Aud the same may be said OF
l.. W. 0glesby OF Collin county for comp
trollerj not better man In the state
could be found for this high position than
MIR, 0glesby, And, by the way, Judge
Wheeler of the Thirty-iiith judicial dis
trict would make an excellent lieutenant
governor - Palo Pinto Star.
Our opinion Is that Throckmorton Is
more liable to be u candidate than Ire
and The truth Is ID will not be light
for anyone to displace Maxey,
and the candidates who are willing Ia try
i are not plentiful. m Franklin Herald,
The Hon a. w Terrell would make
better United States senator than any man
