The attitude which the Gray and
Johnson people have assumed has led
to considerable conjecture Of a vice
presidential character The followers
Of Mr. Bryan profess to believe that
the refusals Of the Gray and the
Johnson men to make a combined
fight against the strength Of Mr..
Bryan means that they are not averss
to occupying positions in which they
can avail themselves of Bryan votes
for second place in the event Of hhis
nomination for the presidency.
On this point, however, both Mr.
Lynch for Governor johnson and Mr..
Marvel for Judge Gray, insist that the
Bryan people are utterly in the wrong.
These men, they say, are out for the
first place and are giving no consider.

Mr. Harrison undertakes to raise $780,.
600 more than was garnered in for the
Turner movement. Although no tacit
agreement has been reached on this
phase Of the question, the decision Of
the three cities to bear the cost Of
the survey indicates that the contract
in the main is acceptable and that
when the time arrives the entire con
tract will be accepted with probably
a few minor amendments.
One provision Of the contract that
appeals especially to the local promo
tiers of the new movement to build the
line is that the subscriptions are to be
held in escrow in banks in Fort Worth
Weatherford and Minerals Wells until
the st. Louis parties make bond to
build the road according to the con.

the word municipal" included in the
liN Of the kinds Of elective officers to
oe voted on at the fall election. The
explanation given is that in the first
place the general election law was
not intended to apply to cities and
towns; second that the term muni-
cipal is indefinite and probably slipped
into the bills through carelessness Of
construction; third that the laws pro-
viding for elections in cities were not
repealed by the two bills which
wouldhaye been the case II the franz
ers Of the election laws had intended
that they supercede the present laws
regulating municipal elections; fourth
that the general spirit Of both the
primary law and the general election
law indicates that there was no in
tention Of changing the time of city
elections, which come in the spring Of
odd numbered years.
Every attorney consulted gave 1t as
his opinion that there should be no
city election until next April, and that
the general election law did not ap-
ply to city or town or municipal corpo,
ration elections.
