In his speech at Wichita Falls, Mr..
Colquitt in a sort of half-hearted way
said he would favor an amendment to
the constitution so as to provide for
complete enforcement of the A. and
M. College from the state university.
This belated concession is an admis-
sion that he was wrong in the position
he took when he first announced his
candidacy and it is evident that he
has been forced to make it by an over
vhelming public opinion. How diff
ferent from the frank declaration of
Mr.. Davidson in his first announce
ment.

west of jacksonville, is the only man
we have heard of who observed clean
up day in the country. He says he
gave his premises, lots, stables, etc,

year it is to be hoped Mr.. Wallace
will not be alone in the observance
of cleanup day. So worthy an ex-
ample will surely be followed by other
good people until the custom becomes
general.
