Beevills Bee:-Though Horace Chill
toms existence as senator was brief
yet by the grace of Hogg he remain ed
in position long enough to give his
private secretary an opportunity to
taste the luciousness of public pap,
and he rather likes it. Just listen
at this from his paper, the Rusk
Standard Herald: "Mr. Chiffon is q
young man, only 3S years old, and
was born in Smith county. He made
q splendid record in the senate, and
we say: Let him succeed Coke when
the Waco statesmaD's term Is out.
Beeville Bes:-The American citi-
zens of Duval have come to the con.
about Gov. Hogg's law and order
policy was purely bluster and blow.
Twice have theypetitioned against the
Mexican horse thieves and Cut Threats
that infest their county and twice
has their petition been UNDECIDED by
the governor. They have now sent
q petition to the legislature asking
for a larger ranger force in that sec
ton and the chances are that the law
abid ing citizens of that section will
receive adequate protection TO both
life and property. ...|
Southern Mercury:-Calamity how
lers seem TO be on the increase. Two
yesrs ago no one but an Alliance
lecturer wore that epithet. Judge
Clark Is now dubbed calamity
howlert and as soon as the legisla-
turs adjourns Governor Hogg will
add his sonorious voice to the calam.
ity howl!
Southern Mercury:-The word, re-
form, drives the ordinary partisan
boss" mad-it produces political ra.
bies, for should reform prevail, his
calling Is gone; he will be compelled
to earn his livelihood by labor or
starve. His influence will be gone.
The Two Repu blics:-A correspond
ent IN the Texas side of the lower
Rio Grande in giving an account of a
recent encounter between managers
and outlaws, says the latter are cup
posed to be Garza's mel. This is
very probable Cara had all the
cat le thieves and other outlaws in
that section enlisted under bis ban

laws are still there. but Cara is not

Yoskum Graphic:-Miss Mamie
Seaborp, who has been visiting her
aunt and uncle Mr.. and Mrs. N. d.
Arnold, left yesterday for her home
in San Antonio. Miss Mamie is q
most amiable young lady and during
her brief stay of two months won for
herself many warm and admiring
friends, who regret to see her leave.
Garland News:-To the "gang":
Don't forget the mreting of the Texas
Press Association at San Antonio,
Tuesday, April 10. A pleasant and
profitable meeting is expected. San
tone will entertain the press boys
elegantly.
GAINESVILLE Enterprise:-At Bren.
ham the other day, Sam Jones said:
"There is an old broken down poll
tician in Texas named George Clark,
his slogan, "Turn Texas Loose.u
"Turn Texas loose" said Mr.. Jones,
land in three years she will 60 to
hell whooping." 1t is readless to
add that Judge Clark's friends are
not now in o good humor with Mr..
Jones.
BRENNAN Banner:-Newspaper ad-
vertising is not form of charity, but
q simple matter of business. The
practice originated with man who
found that it paid him to let the pub.
lie know what he had to sell. He
did 1t for his own advantage.
Bonham News:-Tbe third party
appears to be in earnest now, and 1t
is evident that they will haze q ticket
in the field for all state offices. They
are not to blame for this; if they are
not Democrats, then they should
take no stock or part in Democratic
nominations. If they are not Republi
cans. they should take no stock in
Republican conveD lions, but should
come out in their own uniform and
march under their own flag.
Gillespie County News:-In reply
to the last complaint about the Daily
Express being missing, the postoffice
officials at San Antonio write to saw
"the fault must be at this end of the
mail route" This is a pretty cool
thing to say and shows that they In
tend to make the complaint rest on
any other shoulders but their own.
We VIII do our postmaster, Mr..
Hirsch, only justice by saying that
after a large experience of country
postoffices In Texas, we have no hes.
itation in saying his Office is more
free from mistakes and delay than
any Office we have ever had to do
business with. Let those Santone
