Cute, Opposition.

Next Tuesday is election day in Texas,
when all offices, from governor down to
| precinct constable, are TO be filed.
| In Tarrant county the Democratic
nominees will be elected without uoub: 4,
although there is opposition.
The regular Republican candidates
| have been working hard. They have
not been ostentutious; that Is not their
| policy; but they have taken advantage
of apparent Democratic apathy.
| Not in years has there been such unity
| in the Democratic camp in Tarraut
county as this year. aud if al the ad-
! herents TO the party would present them
selves at the polls on Tuesday, Tarrhnt
county would pile up a tremendous ma
| jnrity for the straight ticket headed by
jim Hogg.
But there seems TO be an idea preva-
LINT with good many voters that their
ballots will not be necessary to elect. Il
Is mistaken idea. There Will be
necessity for every vote that can be
piled up for the regular nominees. The
opposition hss been at work. and though
there may be no surface indica-
tons, there is m UNDERGROUND cur
! rent fed by Republicans, mulconteuts
and allies. that will become apparent
on election day. Special efforts are be-
ing made TO get in certain Officers. Hui
