BRYAN MAY LOSE

Falls County Roads and Braxos Roads
Near Milliean May Cause the
Change.

Marlin. Texas. Aug. ll.-Some un.
oasiness and great interest was man.
Tested Mt a special meeting OF tho
Commercial Club directors wednes.
day morning when Secretary Connally
made public statement by ID. Il. Coin.
secretary OF the State Good Roads
Association, which intimated that the
Meridian road through Texas might
be changed II there was not some ac
ton taken by Falls County to provide
for her share OF the road. The sub.
stance OF the statement by Mir. Colp
was as follows:
This is one OF the most important
roads In Texas. but am sorry to say
that II Is receiving less support on
that 200 miles than any other place
In the State. and I really believe that
unless some definite action Ia taken
by Falls County and the Millican dis.
trict In BraEos County. that there will
be a movement started to carry the
Meridian road down to Taylor follow.
Ing the Katy from there to Bastrop
and there connecting with the South.

!, will be seen from the proposed
route that Marlin would be entirely
left OF the road. which would be very
detrimental to the city as a health

THE GOOD OF THE SERVICE.

In urging upon the president and
the postmaster general that Edward
NJ. Morgan be retained as postmaster
Of New York city, the National Civil
Service Reform league is striking AT
one Of the most vulnerable points OF
the democratic administration-its
use of the spoils system.
Mr.. Morgan is Republican. He
reached the postmastership by pro-
motion and has held it because of
MS character and efficiency. The
president is said to have decided upon
an ex-fire commissioner for the place,
man without experience in postal
affairs.
The reputation of the administra-
ton has been to make all appoint
ments from the party ranks. Mckin-
ley went outside his party to fill
vacancies and also continued Demo
Gratis in office in several instances.
Roosevelt and Taft did the same
thing. But Republicans have stood

of the great prosperity SO ghbly pro-

So bill in some munition plant year
ago and they would have cleaned up
more than they did from the bank
and at the same time escaped possible
prosecution and Imprisonment, altho
IN robbing the bank they did not con-

SmeIter Concert.

The concert given by the Smelter
band and orchestra at Red Men hall
last night was success both as to
the size of the audience and the char
.acter of the performance The pro-
gram was varied and exceedingly in
teresting and pleasing. Every num-
Der was rendered so well it was
worthy Of special mention and demon
strated the substantial progress the
Smelter organizations are making.
Their ambition to give better en-
tertainment than any visiting musi-
clans ever present is being realized,
and their efforts to awaken Il new
interest in music in the community
are being crowned with success. In
their work they are fortunate to have
the support Of very satisfactory ac-
companists in the persons of Mrs.

10 let the Mexicans work out their

the policy, why was Huerta bounded

The above article is printed for
two reasons: First, to show the in
sincerity of high officials and the
scheming game some of them play,
such as the laying off of men under
civil service under the guise of moth
ing to do and later filling the posi-
tions with the faithful. Second, SO
far as the Herald is concerned we
have no kick over the filling of po-
sitions with members Of the party in
power-that is political spoils such
as the New York postoffice. Presi-
dent Wilson SHOULD not be criticised
because he is seeking Democrat.
It is only natural that he should

viii not meet all requirements. The
point we are making is that no sub
terfuge should be resorted to, but Mr..
Wilson should come right out and say
that Democrats are entitled to the
places. On the same ground that the
Des Moines Capital complains, some
Colorado people are kicking because
Governor Carlson is appointing Re
pubIicans to office. Who do you ex-
pect him to do2 He lhould not play
the duplicity game, however, but
come right out and state that he is
going to appoint Republicans and
not give quasi acquiesence in the can
didacy of Democrats, There is no
necessity of doing so. The appointing
power should be manly and above
petty tricks. Rather indulge in
straight out and out politics and then
there win be no disappointments.
It's trying to make believe you are
above politics that is disgusting.
