The Waco daily examiner. [volume] (Waco, Tex.) 187?-1888, 1888-03-30
the cattlemen's convcntion,aren't they
a rather pl 'ntf full brood! There's
food for thought along here Advance

About the most inefficient statule
now in force il the road law under
which every highway IL the state Is
subject to such chang OF Jcation Is
property owners along the line deem
convenient for them-' Ives regardless
of the ground it is placed on or uls-
tauce added. Nor is this all, for the
system of road working is utter y III
adequate and every citizen having to
travel over the public highway should
| demand of the next representative ei-
| forts to SO change the law as TO allow
roads worked by contract 1t IS only
necessary to travel over one OF our
country roads during "woIk day" TO
s.e the uttar un u5ness OF the law
ard the entire indifference OF those
pre ending to WORK. The present COLI
| diton of the roads is a legitimate ouI-
growth of the system OF road work
ing and we can never expect to have
good highways till the law is so much
amondc Il that all property owners Will
contribute equal TO their repairs, aud
VII work done by hired help under
paid overseers.-Terreil Times.
DON'T KNOW THE LORo.
The Waco Advance is disposed to
cry out Woe, woe" Is every ex-
preston is dolorous, because 1t can
look nowhere among Its la summer
friends without seeing Inconsistency.
1t says that last summer it was Gods
fight" And now II seems to be nc
body fight but CraDtill's. The Times
Herald must conf ss that If it was
Gods fight last summer, it must be
| Gods fight this fall --Dailas Timgs.
That l. fact, but there were so
many who favored the amendment
who are not acquainted with our
| Heavenly Father that they think He
takes vacation every political year
and only has battles to fight in of
years. Waco Advance.
WAYS PECULIAR AGAIN.

lact d. .legates 10 the national cOnven-
tion-likewise to put u prohibition
state ticket in the felix's called by
DR.. Cranlil to IN oet at Waco on the

RIGHT AGAIN. GRAN.
The Adva lco believes in straight
forward declarations and methods. 1t

its purpose being exposed. And
every time, if it is thousa years,
that the Day knifes Cpristiany the

is deliberate purpose founded in
love to God aud man.-Advauce
REAL DEMOCRATS TOO.
= We return thanks to Senator Coke
for public documents and choice lot
of ga den seed -Kosse Cyclone.
And whila the Cyclone reyels in the
luxurios of literature and garden
truck, the Advance will be on starva

u. Senator is so kind to the prohibition
democrats, looks like he might sent
the resl prohlb tionists ~ paper o
