One thing, the Herald thinks, may be
| truthfully said of Attorney General
! Hogg, if he is trimming mis- sails to
! catch the popular breeze, he goes about
| It in a way that is unknown to ordinary
| politicians Of the present day - Sher-
! man Herald.
Hon. J. W. Throckmorton is receiving
! too much grooming from several news
| papers in North Texas for the guber-
Material race. When "Old Throck -
| enters the course it VIII be found he
! has received too much attention, and
will scarcely be able to pass the quarter
! pole. 1t ism It the best petted horse that
always wins the heat Springtown

Hon. Barnett Gibbs, the able and
| gifted North Texas "kid, - might get it
into his head to tackle some of the
patriots next year, and if he does, there
viii BE all kinds of fun in the regions
| 'rOund about. Barney never does things
by halves and he is popular with the
masses. i Denison Herald.
Charley Culberson of Dallas will prob
ably be the next attorney-ge general of
Texas. The cry against him that he
ought not to be given the high position
because his father is a statesman and IN
congress is contemplate and puerile.
Charley Culberson is ''the son OF his
father in the sense that in the high
arena where intellectual giants meet, he
is his fathers equal. One of the ablest
lawyers in Texas, he has especial fitness
for the Office of attorneys general. -
! Gainesville Register.
The newspapers of the state continue
to agitate the question of a suitable can
didate for governor. After looking over
| the list of those that are mentioned and
taking q slight glance over the history
| of their past lives we have about de-
cided in our own minds that there is no
better man spoken of, nor that is liable
to be q candidate than ex-COngressman
Throckmorton. He is q live, energetic
man, has been a faithful servant of
Texas and whole-souI Democrat; hence
we believe the Democratic party can
bring out no better man than Jim
TnrockmoTton. - Western Argus.
Attorney General Hogg seems to make
a pretty good umpire between cOrmoraut
and commune. He has some time ago
caught the iron horse by the name and
shook it severely and q few days ago ne
notified q county attorney to proceed
against some farmers who were forming
a combination against jute bagging.
Right, in our opinion; we have needed
you long, Mr.. Hogg, and if you Will
take third term you can get it and be
governor afterwards. : Scurry County
Citizen.
Attorney General Hogg seems to be in
the lead as candidate for governor, with
ThrOckmorton close upon his heels. a
score of others can be seen in the rear,
while dark horse suavely graZes on the
banks of the Colorado Waco Plain
dealer.
The Roundup made its selection for
Governor Ross successor two years ago
and is now satisfied its choice will win the
race. While there is Il noisy clamOr for
various candidates going on among the
wOuldbe knowing ones that may mislead
the public mind, yet there are silent
forces at work for our choice that Will be
effectually felt at the proper tome. The
people get tired, very tired, of the con-
tinual boosting of aspirants for public
favOrs, but when the time comes for
choosing, the people are going to secect
the most suitable man, regardless of the
quantity of gas previously expended on
his behalf - Cisco Roundup.
Professor Oscar Cooper goes right along
making Texas q magnificent superin-
tendent of public instruction, and he
will hardly have any opposition for a re-
election. He is a young man, a strong
man, and would be hard to defeat.
= DenisOn Herald.
The people of Texas love as well as
honor Governor Ross, and his recent
visit to Richmond, where he lent his
personal presence and influence to the
bringing of peace and order out of tur-
bulent chaos, has endeared him the more
strongly to the people. If we were not
constitutiOnaliy opposed TO the third term
rule, we should be in favor Of Ross as
his own successor. He is a noble man
by nature and true to the core. - Yoa-
kun Graphic.
The papers over the state are busily
engaged bringing out their favorite can
didates for governor next year. So far
Attorney Genera! EOgg seems to have the
lead Jacksonville Boomer.
Hon. J. W. Throckmorton Is coming
very rapidly in view as the next governor
of Texas. - Bonham Review.
We furthermore favor Governor
Throckmorton on the ground that his
conservatism, his great ability and expe-
rience, coupled with his paramount love
of Texas, her people and best interests
as shown by a long public life whose
record shows no trusts betrayed or pledges
broken-marks him as the proper man
into whose hands the future destiny of
our grand old state can safely be en-
trusted = Dodd City Spectator.
