Candidate For States Attorney.

| am a candidate for the office of
States Attorney for Lincoln County,
subject to the approval Of the repub-
lican voters. ] can see but a small
percentage Of the electors before the
primaries and hence take this means
of saying to each Of them that if they
shall e fit to select me, l will use
every effort to fulfill, cautiously and
as ably as is in my power, the duties
of that ot,ice. | believe that prosecu-
tions should never be Instituted to sat
isfy mere personal spite, but when
the public welfare of any community
requires it then they should be car
ried on vigorously. If the voters,
testing each candidate by his w re-
cord as a lawyer. car cOnscientiOuSly
do so, l shall be thankful for their
support.

making a thorough canvass Of the
county and most of the voters in the
county know him personally and know
him to be in every way able and COM
petent for the position Of prosecut-

used in selecting a states attorney as

Sound Advice

Keep Texas money in Texas.
exclaims the editor of the Hallets-
vile Herald in stentorian tones,
and insists that it is a motto that
should float from the masthead of
every newspaper in Texas; every
patriotic Texan should have it
engraveu on his heart; and it
should be the motto of every bus
mess, no matter what size or
character. Especially should the
slogan be sounded when it comes
to life and fire insurance. We
have fattened the great northern
companies with our premiums,
have made millionaires OF Office
boys, and paid for champagne
suppers for the good of the order"
you know. Yet in our fair state
are life and fire insurance COM
panies just as strong as the north
ern and eastern concerns, with
rates that are more liberal to policy
holders, and yet. afording better
protection than the foreign con-
Germs. We know the officers or
our home companies. We know
their honesty and integrity of pur-
pose. We know what is done with
the revenues derived from policies
remains here to build up our
fair dominion. If you have a
policy in the Mutual. or the New
York Life, or Equitable, or any
cher foreign company, retain it,
but if you need more insurance or
have friends DESTROYS of securing
life and property protection, in
vestigate our home concerns. If
you do you will keep Texas money
n Texas.

IT IS a source of pleasure to an
nounce that Cameron county is IN
better shape al present that at any
time in her history. Those who
have practiced irrigation have re-
ceived very fair returns for their
products, and the crops OF cotton,
corn, etc. on non-irrigated lands
have been practically assured by
the recent splendid rains. The
god of plenty smiles on this highly
favored section, and with overflow
ing granaries in prospect. our peo-
pie have good reason to fell that
their lives are cast in pleasant
places.
