Killed His Father.

Vernon Embry. aged about 10 years,
shot and killed his father, Rev Charley
Embry, at their home near Waco, yes
terday morning. Only one shot was
fired and a single barreled shot gun was
used. The shot entered the left side of
Embry's head, just above the ear, and
his brains were scattered over the floor
The boy claims that the killing was
accidental but it is generally believed
that he killed his father in defense of
his mother. The latter admits that her
husband had struck her and she had
warned him not to repeat the blow.
She had knife in her hand with which
she had been turning some meat she
was cooking and threatened to use this
if he did so. Sheriff ID. A McCord and
Deputy Sheriffs SAINT Bush and Oyerton
Harder went to the scene and arrested
the boy and placed him in jail. His
trial will take place first of the week.
He is paralytic and one of the officers
told US that he could hardly see how he
could raise the gun to shoot as he did
He is not bright, but bears the reputa-
tion of being quiet and harmless. En-
bry, while preacher, did not stand
as high as manyo of his color. He and
his wife had not been getting along well
and it is claimed that the fault was
with him. He was well known in
Richmond, where he had preached on a
number of occasions.

Writers Fare Well in Govern

TIE President of the United States is
writer and an author. Mr.. Bryan,
the Secretary of State, is writer of no
mean ability; Josephus Daniels, the Sec

Secretary of the Interior, was a reporter

tary of Commerce, for five years helped
to make Hoe presses. Perhaps these
are some of the reasons why writers and
newspaper men are faring SO well at the
hands of the administration. For when
the President is dispensing jobs, quite
frequently newspaper man or an au-
thor is at the other side of the counter.
But because the President and his cab
met are literary and journalistic in their
associations does not tell the whole sto-
~. Congress is afflicted the same way.
There are now about 60 men in Con-
gress who have had practical experience
at newspaper work. These range all Of
the way down the line from the Speaker,
Champ Clark, who edited country pa
per and was reporter, to Alfalfa Bill
Murray, of Oklahoma, who did the same
thing.

reasonably well who will serve them for

LIST. 1t is almost as certain as anything
can be that the Democratic ticket nomi-
mated tomorrow will be elected, for al
though Madison county is at times
pivotal politically. certainly with the
Republican party split asunder, the Re-
publicans have no hope of winning
again soon. Hence tomorrow's election
is more important than the regular
election to be held in November next,
and this being the case it behooves the
Democrats TO vote for the very best
men. All of the candidates are of
high-class Of citizenship, but as in all
punches some are even better than
others All of the voters have personal
preferences, but this should not alone
guide them in their work of naming a
ticket. Fitness for Office should cut

the county for the next four years
should not only be good Democrats.
those who were Democrats when the
crucial test was applied several years
back, but capable business men-men
who have proven that they can take
care of themselves and what has come
into their hands, whether made or in
herited. To us it seems sheer folly to
entrust public affairs to signal failures.
'Twere better to leave the offices I'M
filled than place men in them who
would wantonly or through negligence
damage the county's affairs, financially
or otherwise. Throw personal prefer
ences aside and vote for the best men.
Vote for men TO whom you will be able
to refer with pride as your county Off
GERS. DO this and you will have done
a duty TO yourself and the great county
in which you live. We have no feeling
in the premises and these lines are not

Victor Murdoch, the floor leader, and
the chief asset of the so-called progress
i've party, is one of the best newspaper
men of the country. Carter Glass, of
Virginia, who is in the public eye as
the Trainer of the currency bill, is the
editor and owner of good newspaper.
He has been a newspaper man, and a
good one, all his life. as his father be-
fore him was Senator Bristow, who is
big man in Congress, owns a daily
newspaper, as does Luke Lea, Of Ten
nessee.
Claude L'Engle, who is serving his
first term in Congress from Florida, is
the editor of Dixie, weekly political
magazine published at Jacksonville, and
it may be remarked parenthetically that
the circulation and influence of Dixie in
Florida is something considerable. Mr..
L Engle was no novice in public life
when he was sent to Congress, neither
is he novice in the newspaper field.
The President is looking for efficient
men to fill places, and while the editors
do not claim monopoly in efficiency,
they are usually alive, awake and in
close touch with current events.

Great Masonic Picnic and
Celebration.

Preparations for the big Masonic pic
mic are progressing finely. A brass
band of eighteen pieces has been en-
gagged, and is now practicing on the
latest, as we'll as some of the most
familiar tunes for the big picnic that
will be held in the Normal School
Campus, August Goth. This picnic is
not to be strictly Masonic. The Masons
want all of their friends to attend If
you will feel more like you are one of the
picnic party by bringing a basket and
turning it over to the basket committee
on the Campus, it will be appreciated,
as it is going to take considerable pro-
visions for the immense crowd that is
expected there that day. Word has
already been received from many prom
inent Masons out in the State that they
will be present. The big parade will be
worth a trip to town TO see. The pa,
rade will be from the Masonic Temple
to the Normal School Campus, headed
by the band. On arrival at the campus,
the band will give concert. Then
brief history of Masonic Lodge, which
Is being prepared by Mr.. Robert r. Bur
nam, Past Grand Master of the Grand
Lodge of Kentucky, will be read. This
historical brief will be very interesting
and instructive. You don't want to
miss it. Arrangements have already
been made for crowd of twenty-five
hundred people, so don't fail TO come
because you think there wont be room
for you. All The baskets containing
lunches are going to be turned over to
the arrangement committee and at
lunch time the daughters of all the
Masons in Richmond and Madison
county are expected to help serve. The
committee of arrangements has several
pleasant surprises in store for those who
attend and will mention few more of
them in our next issue. Watch the
Climax and make your arrangements to
come to the big picnic. Attend whether
you are a Mason or not, as you are most
cordially invited.
