ADVISES PRAYER
RESTORE PEACE
TWO GOOD MEN AND NEioHeoRs
FALL VICTIMS OF TALE BEAR
ERS-WHAT JUDGE SUGGESTS.

A case in which J. +. Allison "a
tempted to have Frank Jones put un
der bond TO keep the peace was tried
before Justice West yesterday after
non and resulted in dismissal. Both
the men live near Keller and are
neighbors. They both bear good repu-
tations as peaceable law abiding citi'
zens and Mr.. West refused 10 have
the peace bond executed.
In discussing the case Justice West
said they were both good men, that
their trouble came up over an election
held some time ago and that the real
guilty parties in the transaction were
those busy bodies who carried tales
from one to the other.
DO YOU know what ought to he
done in this case" said the justice. 81

friends and are living peaceably to

in the meeting tonight of the board
of city commissioners and there are
few particular citizens who nave
an interest in that meeting that Is
more than intense There are some
who have their applications for APP
pointment TO office filed, and as
there are more applicants than there
are Offices to fill, somebody is going
to be disappointed. There is prob
ably more interest in the appoint
ment OF the chief of police than any
other officer. Chief Redmon is an
applicant and ne is a good officer,
bu, whether ne will land or not is
not known. Some feNOw offered
good sized wager today that the
present chief would not be appoint
ed and that there would be practiC-
ally clean sweep in the police de
partment. Whether that is true OF
no. cannot he learned One thing
is certain, Mr.. Ikard who will make
the nomination has not told his best
friend whom ne will nominate and
the whole business is a fabric of
guess-wOrk. Dave f. Booker is an
other applicant and everybody knows
Mr. Booker is a good officer X. s.
Hayden is another man who would
would Ike TO be the big chief. He
has served on the police force and
will make good if he lands the plum.
There is still another man. J. II.

Atkinson has lived here for several
years, he is well known to all the
cd timers, he has served as town
marshall in Whitewright, Texas, and
he has as good record as any of
ficer ever had. He Is honest and fear
less AMI stands for the things in
