awaken, Woo be unto their opponents.--Mc
kinney Gazette.
Tho campaign in the Fifth district has al
ready opened up and number OF men have
announced themselves as willing to succeed
Mr.. Bailey in congress. The early bird" has
the advantage and II Collin county Is to have
any candidates they should got in the race
right away. No doubt there are men In old
Collin who could make 1t interesting with
the other nspirants for the office.

professionals" In municipal politics, who
are constantly seeking to push their own
and their friends personal fortunes rather
than the best interests of the community
as whole. we can easily understand how
smaller cities might be injured by similar
unpatriotic and unbusiness- like adminls-
trations.
There is but one object In pointing out
the all powerful influence for good or bad
in the life of a city of the management
of municipal affairs. That object Is to
impress upon all classes OF citizens the
vast importance to them OF taking an
active and constant Interest in city poll
tics to the end that good government may
be always secured. In every city there
is class of professedly good citizens who
"indolently stand by and suffer elements
with less direct interest in the character
of the city government to choose aud
dominate that government The cause of
good municipal government, which Is now
happily receiving such attention by the
press. demands that this Indifferent stay
at-home business class shall drop its
former lnuoieHce, UT dNeT5iou, ana Interest
itself in municipal affairs
In proportion as all the citizens practi-
cally recognize the farreaching influence
both upon the future of the city and the
immediate affairs Of their business and
home, we may hope to see our American
municipalities redeemed from the control
of professional politicians and placed upon
the high plane of wise business manage
ment
