The Recall a Good Thing.

The newspaper, unlike the public
official, is constantly subject to the
recall. Any man can send out to his
newsdealer an order to cancel a GER

opinion 1t would be an excellent
thing for the country if the body Of

also their judges, big and little-what
every citizen can do to the editor Of
his newspaper-get rid of him when

WEDNESDAY,, MARCH 22, 1911.

The anti-strife resolutions adopted
by the Bryan Prohibition Club last
night are apples of gold in pictures
of silver" Especially commendable is
the decision to have no joint discus
sions. If everybody will be governed
by the spirit of these resolutions the
prohibition campaign in Brazos county,
instead of leaving scars, will be a
pleasant memory which will cement
more closely the ties of friendship and
brotherly love. When the truth is told
in the love of the truth, no harm but
much good results.

PARAGRAPHS CONTRIBUTED BY
COMMERCIAL SECRETARIES

The Texas Realty Journal estimates
that $50 carloads of onions will be
shipped from Asherton, Texas, this
year, compared with 90 carloads last
year. This will bring the onion grow
ers 100000 and the farmers OF that
section have large crops of other yege-
tables as well as a large acreage Of
cotton Asherton, while a compare
lively new farming section of the
state, ranks second in the onion in
dustry, Laredo being the first in onion
production in Texas. The onion belt
of Texas is rapidly expanding and
wherever we find an enterprising truck
farmer this fayorite vegetable thriyes.
From the beginning the farmer has
been the biggest man in history, not
excepting the man on the throne and
the man behind the spear and gun,
and it is a hopeful sign that this fact
is now recognized by the best thinkers
in the world. ~
