Texas q Peach.
publican

Choctaw Inquirer.
"Texas is a whopper. She's a
peach. She's the widest, broad
est, and longest country on earth,
extending from east to west and
also from north to south. She
could put Rhode Island in her vest
pocket. She could swallow three
or four states like Maryland and
wash them down by drinking the
Mississippi dry, and could digest
them without ever having the
collie. Texas-is the empire state
of the Union, without any Kaiser
Bill for an Emperor. She is the
chiefest among ten thousand, an d
altogether lively, wild, reckless.
She's the pebble on the beach.
She's one of the old blue hens
chickens. She's the cock of the
walk, and the Democrat of the
world. She's a wolf and it's her
day to howl. Texas is bounded
on the east by the alligators of
Louisiana and huckleberry thick
cts of Arkansas. She is bounded
or the north by the tomahawk and
the war hoop of the red men. She
is bounded on the west by the
chile con carne of New Mexico and
the hot tamales of Old Mexico.
She is bounded on the south by the
Gulf of Mexico, and if it wasn't
for that measly body of salt water
she would extend beyond the
South pole"

A Thief of Time.

Walter Williams says in his
East Window column.
"Do not talk to the motorman,"
is the wording of a sign which
decorates every trolley car. 1t is
an injunction against interference.
The motorman is tor busy to be
bothered. Talking abstracts. If
the motorman listens he is apt to
lose control of the car. If he does
not listen he is set down as lack
ing in %politeness. If he talks, that
is impolite to his business and
dangerous to his passengers. The
same sign is needed in the offices
of many busy men. The loafer
who forces himself upon the at
tention of a busy man is a thief,
of course. He steals time which
is the most precious property +,
more to be desired than wealth of
any more material kind. The
loafer is more than a thief, he en-
dangers the success of the business
of the men whose time he steals.
He is in the way. He talks to the
motorman. The loafer may, and
often is, n hard worker at other
times. He does not notice the
seriousness of his offense. This,
however, does not excuse him.
He derserves condemnation for
his interference.

Rotation in Office.

Every little while some craze as
catching as measles, brakes out
like a panic at a fire, with no re-
gard to rhyme or reason, and when
the smoke dies away it is generally
found to have been started by
some cheap shyster for little
private notoriety or gain. For
downright lunacy and wilful per-
version of the trend of public SEN
timent, the present cutlery about

senseless and corrupt. In public

attaches, but we believe tho rank
a ID Ale of the party has implicit
confidence in MIR. Niedringhaus as
q campaign manager, He is one
of those forceful, virulent men who
make things go when they take
hold. He is making an earnest,
strenuous endeavor to perfect the
party organization SO that a sy s.
tematic intelligent campaign will
be carried on. Possibly Mr.. ME-
dringhaus has made some mis-
takes-the only man who doesn't
make mistakes is the one who does
nothing-but his services to the
party have been invaluable. The
party workers in every precinct in
the state believe that he knows
how to win, they have confidence
in his ability to direct affairs in
the heat of the fight. They will
work better and with more conf
dence under the leader they know
than under one who is untried.
Therefore we believe it is party
wisdom to re-elect Mr.. Niedring-
haus. But leaving OUT the ques-
ton of policy we are from princi-
pal in favor of the man who gets
up and moves-who is not afraid
of responsibility, who works hard
and accomplishes something, rath-
er than the fellow who finely spins
a long skein theories aud gets hi s
action tangled in the meshes. The
latter is a good travelling compan-
ion, but when it comes to the bust
ness end of the campaign we pre-

THE Al CANDIDATE.

Suppose young Lochinvar did
come out of the West,
And that through all the country
his steed was the best.
He has nothing to brag of and
nothing to pirate,
When sized up beside the Al can
didate.
That steed of young Lochy was no
doubt a peach,
And Lochy himself was not short
in the reach;
And the racing and chasing on
Cannibal lea
Was furious and fast and a hot
thing to see.
And all of the rumpus was GER
tainly great,
But it's slowness beside the Al
candidate.
He's up and doing before the
lark sings
Before the bees out, and a lot of
such things;
He walks up one street, the other
one down
And soon he has circled the
blooming old town.
And it's "Howdy do Mike" and
it's "Hollo there Kate"
For such are the wiles of the Al
candidate.
The steed that he rides is as swift
as the air;
And the bride that he wins is a
turn-about chair
The energy wasted is awful to
name
And the meek compensation be
side it is tame.
It's horrid to think of it-worse to
relate,
The misery that's on the All can-
didate.

Game Law Fines 60 to School Fund.

Game Law Fines go to School Fund.
Attorney General Hadley has
rendered an opinion to State
Treasurer Gmelick to the effect that
all fines collected from the enforce
ment of the state game law go into
the school funds of the county
where the fines are collected. I'm
del a provision of the game law
all fines are to be paid to the state
treasurer and go into the game
warden's fund, but the attorney
generalin his opinion to the state
treasurer holds that the section of
the law is unconstitutional be-
cause it is in conflict with section
8 of article II of the constitution,
which provided that all fines coll
lected from the enforcement of
penal laws shall go into the school
fund of the county where they are
collected. -Kirksville Journal.
