DRAWING A LINE ON THEM.

John M. Simpson, nominee for gov
ernor on the republican ticket, so the
press dispatches tell us, says he is
an anti-Campbell democrat, and that
all Texas democrats who are opposed
to Governor Campbell are going t.
vote for Simpson for governor. Per.
haps they are, but there are blessed
few of them who are called demo
Gratis. Of course Simpson does not
expect to get in ten city blocks of an
election for this most important of
flee; but the astounding thing about
monumental nerve. He is lambasting
the democratic party of the state, and
especially the present administration,
his nomination and his talk is his
and posing as the Moses who can
lead the people out of the troubles
that beset them. Yet if Simpson and
his crowd had their way they would
have Texas bound and gagged, and
turned over to the corporations as
their legitimate prey.
Let MS view the republican nomi-
nees for state office. Simpson, the
nominee for governor, as revealed by
a sworn statement filed with the de-
partment at Austin, is the second vice
president and a director of the NJ, K.
& T. railway. G.. w Ogden, the sec
ond man on the republican ticket, is
general attorney for the Midland,
while Cecil Lyon, the republican
monthpiece, is director of the NJ,
K & T. So there you are Candi-
dates for the most important offices
in the state on a republican platform
that declares for the repeal of all
corporation tax laws. Holy smoke.
Does it not appear that there is yet
some dirty linen in Texas that should
go to the wash with the Foraker
Haskell bundle?
All democrats who are opposed to
the Campbell administration" Indeed.
Just look what bunch these misled
democrats" would have to train

TO PREVENT ovERFLoWs.

A great deal has been written and
printed in Texas papers lately con
corning the work of building levees
to prevent overflows along Texas
rivers. and to protect the rich, bottom
lands. Most men who have investi.
gated the matter agree that the plan
is perfectly feasible and one that
would be worth vast sums to the
state. When it is remembered that
the government is spending millions
of dollars in the west in converting
the great desert places into fertile
farm lands by diverting waterways
from their original channels and
sending them broadcast into the des-
erts, thus retaining thousands of
acres that have heretofore been value
less, and when it is further consid-
cred that these worthless lands under
the new system at once become valu-
able, selling for from twenty-five to
two hundred dollars an acre, no man
will deny that the work that will save
these already rich, black lands from
an occasional overflow will be of in
estimable value. There are no more
fertile lands anywhere in the world
than the river lands in Texas, and if
they were fully protected against
overflows they would at once become
of great value in the productive total
of the state lands. This subject
should be given consideration by our
congressman and the matter taken up
by the government, at least to the eX-
tent that the government surveyors
would indicate where and what work

THE OLIVE.

EX-Commissioner Miner, the new
head of the Agricultural and Mechani-
cal College, is urging the planting of
olive trees, and not without reason
There are enough olive trees growing
and bearing in various parts of the
state to prove that olives will thrive
here as well or better than in Califor-
MIA. The demand for olives and olive
oil more than equals the supply, and
in fact substitutes are put up for
both because of the shortness of the
supply.
Trees at the agricultural expert
ment farm at Beeville are now loaded
with fruit, and it was but recently
that the Enterprise told of the trees
growing in Galveston, and later of
trees that were bearing in Marshall
The Corpus Christi Herald tells of an
orchard of the trees in the vicinity of
that city, so that it may be seen that
the trees have wide range of
growth in Texas.
1t would be well for those who are
putting out experimental orchards in

Doan's Kidney Pills is the remedy
to use, because it gives to the kidneys
the help they need to perform their
work.
If you have any, even one, of the
symptoms of kidney disease, cure

Plans are being drawn with view
to converting the city hall building of
Tyler into an up-to-date opera house,
to take the place of the beautiful
house destroyed by fire about one
year ago. The city hall in Tyler has
been dead piece of property for
years, being SO constructed that it
was not available for any special use,
and the plan to make it into an opera
house seems like good one from a
financial standpoint Tyler formerly
had one of the prettiest theatre
buildings in the state, and always
caught the cream of theatrical at
fractions visiting the state.

there is no excuse or reason why this

Governor Campbell is not really a

people here are always glad to have
