a Word about Waco NEWS
PAPERS.

Tnere is solid ,mfort and real
bright encouragement in the posi-
ton taken in the editorials Of WACO
NEWSPAPERS on tn Fourth (Ffida!

who do not credit the editor of the
Day .G.ob, with all sincerity and
believe he does at all times the
clean, right, fair thing for Waco.

d me at any time Ivy the Day Globe
has been by tie men employed by
the editor of the Day Globe, whom
its editor DID not or COULD not con.
troll in it's slaps and stab, at men
and measures. We know and APP.
preciate often where snch things
come from. We appreciate the
bold stand taken By the Day Globe
in the school matter and the eltc i IN

Everybody knows that THE
DAILY News, under It's present
editor and reporters, "hevs to the
line" The editor of TIE News
does not employ reporter for his
"opinion Ct men and things" bat
to state the facts as news.

predecessor, the Town Talker The

find the Telephone. We commend
its outspokeu policy and words on
the (FRIDAY) ward election frauds.
