Motor mail service in Ellis county
has developed considerable opposi-
ton. Indeed. recourse to a primary
election next month will determine
whether the department at Wash
ington shall be requested TO re-es-
tablish the horse-drawn vehicle
routes. Ellis county is one of some
fifteen counties selected over the
United States for a try-out of gaso-
line against bay. Apparently the
proposed recall of Old Dobbin is not
likely if Ellis eounty's experience
is general all over the try-out cir
cult. For one thing, a setting OF
eggs intrusted to a snorting ma
chine does not ready create the
calm incident to all-is-well. Not
every new tangled notion works out
to old-fashioned satisfaction. But
the primary, the arbiter of all ills,
will settle the question and permit
the people to go right along ruling
as usual.-Fort Worth Star-Tele-
