telegram from Washington-''Mr. George

or four days written letters to his friends
here, saying To them to go slow on Mills
oil, tnaE public sentiment is undergoing
q very decided change in T,XSs upon the
question of the tariff, and practically says
the bill should be defeaied." WI nout

| Terrell Times: A new Treasurer
should be selected for the following rea-
sons: First, the sge Of G-vernor Lub-
book is such as to render his dem se cer-
tain at no far distant cay, as italreaSy
seriously interferes with his ouits, plsc-
ing mucn Ct the work sad Responsibility

time he has been in office continually
renders it extremely desirable thst 8 new

balance.
Ia urging this change we do not wish
20 be understood as in sny manner dis
psraging Governor Lubbock, in fact W.
nave the highest regard for him and will

his integrity ind patriotism. However,
we do feel tnsE he should be satIsf %
some time, ana az this state gives no pen
