Two vacancies were announced in
the ranks of the Democratic ticket

Frank Champion, nominated for
treasurer, and Oscar Souder, nomi-
mated for alderman Of the third
ward was made public. 1t is 10 be
regretted that Frank Champion has
withdrawn from the ticket. re is
one of the most respected citizens
of Brownsville. He has given freely
of his time in the past TO advance
the interests of the city, but he
feels that he can not spare the time
from his business that would be nee
essary To properly care for the af-
fairs Of the office of treasurer, if
elected. This vacancy on the Demo-
cratic ticket may have a tendency
TO weaken it somewhat, for, ir-
respective of party, Mr.. Champion
holds the respect Of all the people.
Mr.. Champion says however, that
he will stand by his party and do
all he 0n to support the ticket.
Mr.. Oscar Sauder's withdrawal
was expected. Since the night that
he was nominated he has steadfastly
declined to be the candidate for
aldermanic honors in the third ward.
He now declares formally through
The Herald that he will not run.
Mr.. Sauder is a most estimable gem
tleman. He would make a good aid
erman, and the city would be the
gamer if there were more men as
honorable and intelligent as he in
public life. But politics does not
appeal to Mr.. Sauder, and his dis
like for it no doubt caused him I o
decline.

SHOW THE GLAD HAND.

Has Brownsville got any glad
hand to offer to the men VINO are
pushing the Good Roads movement ?
do we quite realize that this is
perhaps the beginning of an epoch
in the development of the South
west? Are we by chance in danger
of overlooking the fact that The
movement begins in Brownsville?
No citizen of this place can afford
to be Indifferent. Suitable welcome
should be given to the Frisco rep-
resentatives and government road
experts who will be here Monday.
Every man who lives in Brownsville
should attend the demonstrations.
and should try to induce every
farmer of his acquaintance to at
tend also.
The sood roads movement is an
outgrowth of the practical good
sense of the American people. The
community that is Indifferent to this
problem is fatally Indifferent to it's
own prosperity. This is not only
true of the municipalities, but is
even more true of every farming
neighborhood in the world.
The Herald feels sure that the
people of Brownsville and of the
surrounding farming Communities
will not fail to live up to their OPP
portunities in this instance, but we
should not forget that the time is
short. Let us do u part to give
The Good Roads movement to be
launched at Brownsville Monday a
most suspicious beginning.

either have it covered or pour some
oil on the surface, and your nights

reminds us-it is none too early
for the city to start an anti-mos-

SORRY ONLY ONCE.

You won't be sorry but once.
and that will be as long as the track
is there"
This is the way a certain promi-
men visitor to Brownsville Expressed
himself yesterday on learning that
the street car company is to be per-
mitted to build its track through
the paved district with railroad
Trails, instead of the modern
grooved rails, which are used now
a-days in all up to date cities.
Apparently there is no prospect of
remedying the matter now. Of
course, there is no use shedding
tears over what can not be helped,
Still, The Herald is very sorry in
deed that the situation must be ac-
cepted, and it can not refrain from
saying q. Yes, we are already
sorry and we expect to be sorry a
long time that, while other cities are
laying the accepted, modern,
grooved street car rails, Brownsville
has failed TO secure this advantage.
We must admit that we were all
mapping when the Robertson fran
chise was passed. What makes the
oversight appear more strange is the
fact that the De Bruin franchise,
which was before the city council at
the same time. did contain a pro-
vision requiring the use of the
grooved rails. Why did we over
look this omission in the Robertson
franchise?
Well, at any rate, Brownsville
should learn a lesson from this ex-
perience. Every franchise that is
proposed Is published in the Herald
before it is acted upon The citi-
zens should make a point of study
ing every provision of any fran
chise applied for and note whether
it has any defects. Every citizen
has a right to express himself on
such subjects before the city coun-
Gil, and the Herald also always well
ONE such expression through its
columns. The citizens should take
the most active interest in the
doings of the city government. The

THE POLITICAL SITUATION.

The Sentinel is very loath to
mix in the present municipal
campaign, but like the Mis-
sourian, "if they don't quit
kicking my dog round we
shall be compelled 10 get into
it. In this mornings Herald
appears an article in which
surprise is expressed that nc de-
NAL appeared in the paper of
the signature to the telegram
sent to Washington, and quotes
the exrarte Statement. of r. B.
Creager, collector Of customs,
to the effect that such a denial
would be forthcoming. If the
affirmation or denial of ID. H..
Cummins, was of so much inn
portance and the Herald de
sired the same, 1t could have
secured the same by sending a
reporter to interview Mr.. Cum
Minis, AS to what goes into the
Sentinel, is clearly a matter
which will be guided by the
judgment of those in control of
the paper. The Sentinel refers
the reading public to the files
of the esteemed Herald during
the past campaigns, where it
refers to Mr.. Creager in terms
which are by no means COM
mandatory. AS to whether any
thing further will appear in teh
columns Of the Sentinel in re-
gard to the matter is entirely
a matter with which the Her
aid or any one else outside OF
the directory of this paper has
nothing to do.
So The Herald sent a reporter {
interview MI. d. p. Cummins, [
see what he had to say in the mat
ter of affirming or denying the re
port, and to secure any other in
in the premises which h
be willing to give out. Til
Of the interview follows:
Il am not on the witness stanC
am trying to run a newspaper an
run it impartially."
Mr.. Cummins thus declined
say whether or not he signed tn
telegram mentioned in the articl
lbove.

OF course it is nothing to The
Herald whether Mr.. Cummins signed
the telegram or not. He had the
right to sign 1t if he wanted to.
What interested us, however, was
the fact that he said he did not
sign it, yet his name appears as a
signer of the telegram. Mr.. Cum
minis told Mr.. Creager that he did
no. sign it,. He told several other
prominent men that he did not sign
1T, and asked them to withhold
judgment until they saw the SEN
tinel that night. Yet Mr. Cummins
did not publish his denial in the
Sentinel. He did not ever publish
the telegram in the paper. This
naturally was much talked of. Mr..
