Tor a third term when there IS good for
the state in it presently and prospec-
lively with such a man.-[ Bandera
/ Bugle.
Some of the Texas newspapers are ia
voring Governor Ross for a third term.
In the first place, we don't believe he
would be candidate for third term,
as it would be contrary to all Democratic
| precedents, on account of its tendency to
| centralism and hereditary power IN one
man, which the American people so
much abhor in this country II Vernon

Some of the papers are still grooming
up Hogg for governor. If he had not
| been so rough on the sheriffs; if he had
| stood in with the railroad fellows secret
| Iy; and last and most important of all ,
| if be had not grieved the alliance men
who had set so much store by
| him before, by telling them that
their combination to defeat the trusts
was as subversive of the law as
| the trusts themselves, there is no telling
! what kind of a ground swell there might
| have been for him for governor. This
| has no reference to the merits Of the case
at all. 1t is only mathematical case in
| the single rule Of three-where three
| terms are given to find fourth - Ham

The Fort Worth GAZETTE of yesterday
| contains the following paragraph i'll its
| column of clipped state press opinions:
While the papers all over the state are discuss
! ing the merits OF probable candidates for gov
ernor, and declaring their preferences notwith-
! standing the fact that the canvass is opening
| several months too early, the Herald accepts the
doubt and uncertainty by this equivocal declara-
! ton: If Capt. Brown is a candidate, the Herald
! is for Brown; if he should not be candidate,
! then it is for Hon. James w. Throckmorton.
| IF he should not be candidate, there are other
| good men to choose from.
The above paragraph THE GAZETTE
had credited TO the benson Herald.
This was a mistake on the part of our
esteemed Pantherville contemporary
which it will kindly correct. The Herald
HAS uOJ lIStII IOl N'ElPt- IL " " Il
! Hon. James w. ThrockmortUn or any
other manLthat it knows of. The Her.
aid has head of its own, does its own
| thinking and airs its own opinions, but a.
| this time it has not made up its mind who
ought to be governor. Later on, dear
GAZETTE, the Herald may talk a. few
verses on the situation, but the season is
not just yet DenisOn Herald.
What's the matter with Tom Henderson of

If Henderson does tackle Hon. Roger @. Mills
! he won't know certain portion of his anotomy
| from an excavation in the ground when our be-
| loved Roger Q. Shall have gotten through with
him: Tom certainly has better sense than TO
| tackle buzz-saw in full motion Moody Mon

That S just ubout the size of it. No
man can stand up before our beloved
Roger in this district.

The Dallas Times Herald says Col. Dick
| Wynne has been mentioned for governor, bat he
''must not listen to the voice of the siren, be-
| cause Hon. Henry Exall is the man for the place
| or words to that effect. Col. Wynne is one OF
the ablest men we have. and as brilliant ora
! tor he hardly has peer in the state. II he does
listen to the voice of the siren and enter the
| field he will make that Will surprise the
natives Denison Herald,
The News most heartily indorses every
word of the above in reference to Col.
Dick Wynne. He is an able man in
every particular and has the courage to
openly express his convictions on every
question. We do not think Col. Wynne
is candidate for governor at this time,
but it gives us pleasure to see such COM
plimentary mention of q friend and
former citizen of Rusk county. If, how
ever, he should become a candidate for
the position, we believe the man who
beats HIM would be the next governor of

Hon. J. W. ThrOckmoTtOn is coming

for governor Waxahachie Democrat.
If North Texas wants the next COVER

be ThrockmOrton, EXalI, Brown, Wynne
or John Smith Divided we can do

The next Democratic nominee for gov
ernor of Texas will be in favor of a rail-
road commission. This is a prediction.
Il Paris News.
The greatest objection the Democrat
and Reporter has ever heard urged
against Attorney General Hogg is that
he has manfullY and fearlessly attempted
to have the laws executed as he under
stood them. If this is a reasonable OBJ
lection to an officer, then what sort of an
officer do the people of Texas want?
This much Is said without reference to
whether or not he will ever again be Il
candidate for any ofhce.-[Tyler Demo-
crat and Reporter.
The Tyler Courier says that there is
not ''the remotest probabilit of eX-
Governor Hubbard being induced to con-
sent to the use of his name as even
possible candidate for governor. He is
now at the head of most impoTtan en-
terpTise-one that is fraught with great
results to Eastern and Northwestern
Texas, and he has thrown his whole be-
ing into the work of accomplishing the
early success of that enterprise. - The
truth is, Governor Hubbard is engaged
