A Statement That Cuts No Ice.

So many friends of the editor
Of The Press have asked why this
paper does not refute the state
ment carried at the head Of the
frat page Of the Standard,
that it seems u statement from
The Press 10 really desirable.
70 those vino have 80 kindly con-
sldered The Press in this particu-
lar it would say
That The Press has all along
considered that the Standard was
running that line because the
editor of the Standard was a can
dldate for favors at the hands Of
West Texas democrats and was
thus declaring the political sta
tus of the paper for the guidance
of his constituency. While The
Press knew that its contemporary
was knowingly overdrawing the
situation vet this paper has SAID
nothing because of it's desire to
see Hon. ]. G.. Murphy 90 to St.
Louis as a district delegate.
Mr.. Murphy occupied a seat in
the Tom Green county democrat

The Press. Mr.. Murphy did not
object to the presence there of

season and splendid crop pros
poets. An editorial in the Dallas

Farmers through the San An

for fine crops were never better
than they are now. Milo maize
is heading out, sorghum, Johnson
grass, Kaflir corn and other feed
stutls are doing fine. While the
oat crop is u little short, there is
the excellent prospect this year of
a fine corn crop. Farmers say
that if another fine rain falls like
the one last week San Angelo will
get 10000 bales of cotton this
fall. All the farmers are highly
pleased over the prospects. "
The News might have added
that not only are the farmers i'll
dulging in fond hopes, based on
bright prospects, but that the
stockman is feeling good over the
actual existence of fine forage and
excellent grazing. He also has
the advance in beef to buoy up
his hopes. West Texas is the
