In the profundity of It's 6isdom the
Houston Age arises to remark: cit is very
likely that neither Hogg, Wheeler or Throck-
morton viii be nominated for governor" Well
hardly Galveston Tribune.
The papers supporting Hogg for gov
ernor are conducting clean canvass. The
Throckmorton organs are Singing mud ana
shouting ''demagogue' 10 all who don't think
as they do. -ICrockett Courier.
Attorney General Hogg is really the
strongest man before the people to-day. He
may not receive the nomination for governor,
brit it will taRe mighty strong combination 20

The two prominent candidates for gov
ernor-Hogg and Throckmorton-are both in
favor Of a railroad commission. Now what will
those papers do that were for Throckmorton be
cause 'Hogg is q commission mani Hal
lettsville Herald.
The San Antonio papers say Bexar
county is opposed to Hogg for governor. Proba-
bly, so. But why? Because Hogg had to go to
San Antonio to enfor ce the law against saloons
and gamblers? Then the rest of the state ought
to be for him. Terrell Times-Star.
Attorney General Hogg is making an
active canvass for governor. If it proves as
successful as his vindictive antagonism to Com
missioner Hall did he will be retired this fall be-
fore convention that will demand representa-
tive men, tried and true.-lRound Rock News.

ingly and manfully answered all questions
asked him in regard to his views On questions of

see which way the tide was turning Rockwell

A man who is strictly antagonistio to
any branch of legitimate business in a state is
not fit timber to make a governor OF. Such
man is Attorney General Hogg. He has been
fighting railroads ever since he has been in
Office, ana it follows as natur al consequence
that he would be pTejudiced against them in any
question which might arise in which they were
interested. - Rockwall Success.
Attorney General Hogg is before the
people as a candidatefo for governor on his merits.
To the gentlemen opposing him he has mop oliti-
cal trade to offer that Will prevent locked con-
vention. If he is the voice OF two-thirds of the
Democratic citizens of Texas he will receive the
nomination and there will be no room for dark
horses. If any politician chershes the fatter-
ing JUNCTION that he will be able to trade Mr.,
Hogg off for a dark horse, it is high time for him
to be impressed with the idea that Mr.. Hogg is
not making this race for his health.-[Tyler
