what the New Era reports Mr.
Meitzen to have said at Moulton
after the speech Of Hon. Rudolph
Kleberg; ''that he had not realized
how important parsonage he was
until the clique that is fighting him
had to HIRE outside speakers"
Mr.. Meitzen had every reason
to know that he was maligning one
of the most patriotic German
American citizens in the state of
Texas, as well as our congressman,
that Rudolph Kleberg would scorn
to accept pay to perform duty of
citizenship. In order that the
people of Lavaca county may Judge
between Judge Meitzen and Hon.
George f. Burgess, let it be known
that Mr.. Kleberg came to this
county upon the invitation of the
democratic chairman and the Moul-
ton Park Verein, without even the
though of compensation or reward,
even paying the expenses of this
trip from Austin. That he said to
Mr.. Blakeslee that for some years
he had felt that the doctrine Of
socialism would have to be combat
ted by the loyal citizenship of this
county and that he had at such in
tervals of time as was at his COM
mand prepared to meet the issue
80 that he could warn as we'll as
protect his countrymen from the
pernicious doctrine. That ne was
glad of the opportunity to speak tc
the Germans of Lavaca county or
the subject, and further said that
his services were at the command
of the democratic executive COM
mittee to further combat the spreac
of socialism in this county when
ever it did not conflict with hi
duties at Austin. Mr.. Burgess
our congressman, also spoke a
Moulton upon the invitation Of tn,

committee. Now Messrs. Meitzel

Thanksgiving Day, November 20.

November % is named as
National Thanksgiving Day by
presidential proclamation, in
which ample cause for giving
thanks is stated:
Yet another year of widespread we'll
being has passed. Never before in our
history, or in the history of any other
nation, has a people enjoyed more
Astounding material prosperity than is
ours; a prosperity so general that it
should arouse i'll us no spirit of reckless
pride, and, least of all, a spirit of heed
less disregard of our responsibilities; but
rather a sober sense of our many bless
ings, and a resolute purpose, under
Providence, not to forfeit them by any
action of our own.
Patriotic words wisely and
we'll spoken. Pride is not reck-
less that glories in splendid
achievement. All may be
properly proud of what has been
accomplished in the past nine
years of Protection prosperity.
Needless disregard of RESPONSE
bilities it would be if we were
to forget the chief cause of that
prosperity. To forfeit our many
blessings by destroying this
source would be an act of SUI.
premc folly.

TOWNSM EN- TALK

Sheriff Richardson: "It's
quiet these days in criminal
circles and if somebody don't
get desperate and do something
desperate pretty soon, so can
get action, people will begin to
think I'm not earning my salary"
Judge Humphrey: 1.-THE trusts
have surely got to go. That's
evident to my mind, They may
stave it off for time and cause
delay, but the powers that be
are certainly on their trial and
go they must sooner or later"
City Attorney Gadd: eff a
cold snap was to come along
about now l wouldn't be sur
prised to see fuel famine here
in Broken Bow since the railroad
company takes the liberty to
con!iscate coal by the car load
consigned to our Dealers"
Alvin Burk: 81 did know
something the other day that l
thought at the time would be of
interest to REPUBLICAN readers
but pom my soul can't think
now-to save my life-what it
was. I'll try and remember the
next time"
G. l.. Turner: Eyes, the
Burlington railroad company
thought they needed coal more
badly than our customers and
contscated three car loads con-
signed to us, but we got in car
load today and l am assured of
one hundred and twenty tons
more this week. Yet we got out
easy, guess, as had a letter
this morning from another deal
er from whom the Burlington
has sidetracked twenty cars and
converted it to their own use."

The result Of the recent cleo
tion is one which every man
must welcome who appreciates
the great interests that confront
this country. The president,
and the people, whose aims are
one with the president, seem to
have strong congressional ma
jority to carry out their plans.
This is commensurate with the
advance in the peoples cause all
along the line. The judgments
secured against the New York
Central railroad, in particular,
and the Standard Oil monopoly,
the end Of rebating by which
these monopolies have been built
up, are promises of complete vic.
tory for the people and their
leader. The result of the COM
ing winter should put the
triumph of the peoples cause
beyond question.
