A FACT. NEFERTHELEESS

A good many kilograms have
been received in Brownsville IN
curing whether Judge Wells will
accept the position of attorney gen
eraI, made vacant by the death of
L. 5. Smith last Thursday. Judge
Wells is Out of town, and no one
can say positively whether or not
he will accept, but there is no
doubt that his mental calibre
and attachments in the profession
of law fit him to fill the place most
satisfactorily. -BROWNSvILLE HER
AID.
An item similar to the above APP
pears in THE HERALD every time
there is an appointment worth
mentioning To give out at Austin.
-VIctOria Advocate.
The Advocates comment sounds
skeptical, but The HERALD'S state
mentS On the subject of appoint
mentS offered to Judge Wells are
none the less true. The kilograms
and other correspondence are on
record to prove them-a number
of kilograms being received by the
editor of this paper himself rela-
tive to the matter. If ever there
was a case of the office seeking the
man, Judge Jim Wells of Browns
vile is living example of it, as
he has repeatedly been urged to
accept nominations or appoint
mentS. Heretofore, however, pro-
fessiOnal engagements, involving
greater sums than the salaries of
most government officials, have
prevented his acceptance, and he
has always sought the advance
ment of his friends instead of him.
self. If the Advocate man is from
Missouri we can "Show him" that
there has not been a political office
given ont from Austin that has not
been rendered Jim Wells first.

College Notes,

Prof, Hoyt excused the first year
class of the academy from recitations
Thursday. The Professor took occas-
ION to remark that he did not give the
holiday because the first year class
was good and did not cut where the
naughty second year class did, but be-
cause the formers merit demanded
some such recognition. AS the mem
bers of the first year had decided to
cut anyway that year, the principals
words were rather amusing. The girls
spent the day in playing lawn tennis,
while the boys took divers liquid re-
freshments with them up the river
and returned with headaches and
flushed faces. OF course 1t was the ex-
ercise.

High School boys. | don't for the life
Of me see, what's the use of all this
here fuss
The students say that they are going
to play the girls. because they need the
money. They went in debt for their
uniforms and their outfit, and added
greater indebtedness to that by the
failure in attendance at the game with
Athens last Saturday. They don't
want to join the bankruptcy club,
which has become so popular with a
number of the older citizens, for they
believe that they are too young to get
in. Hence, they are going to play the
Bloomer Girls and they don't mind the
trouble that they have stirred up, for
it means more advertising for nothing
and a greater attendance to see the
big game.
Some of the purifiers are talking OF
appealing to the courts for an injunc-
tion. The school men say they cannot
prevent the game, for the boys are out
side their jurisdiction. They could
stop it being played on school grounds

Neglect Of Duty on Part Of
City officials
no SICSATURE By THE MAYOR
Attorneys Complained That Laws
Passed by The Civ Council
We're Not Valid

Since the question of what has become
of the bonds OF the Street and Sewer hi
rectors has been raised, it has been
brought to light that during the past two
years the office of the Clerk OF City
Council has been conducted in a loose
manner
AS is we'll known it is required by law
that all ordinances passed by City Coun-
ell shall pc signed hy the Mayor before
they become effective. AS soon as they
are passed it is the duty of the Clerk OF
COUNCIL To present them to the Mayor for
his signature. When The present clerk.
w. l.. Hamann. took charge OF the Of
flee. he found that several ordinances
passed by Council had not been signed by
Mayor Fahey and were consequently i'm
valid. Mr. HWann's attention was first
called to the fact by several attorneys
who called upon him for information re-
garding ordinances passed recently hy
Council, and upon examining them found
that they had not been signed.
I'm order To- avoid any legal complica-
tiOns it was necessary for Mr.. Hamann
to take the ordinances 10 Former Mayor
Fahey and have him sign them. Who is
responsible for such carelessness is not
known.
