p~ortanCe. inajmuch as he decided
that the governor could not veto
any act of the-legislature after that
body had adjourned.
The encouragement made two
speeches, one against the Jones de-
cision. which was made to the court.
The second speech was relative to
too many quarrcls between elective
officials, which was not made to the
court, but which was eloquent and
beautifully punctuated with words
not herewith reproduced.
The suit was brought by an en-
ploye of Fred Parkinson's office.
The examiner and inspector simply
authorized the suit and went on
about his business. Mr.. Parkinson
works on the theory that the gov
ernor's political auto is so badly
wrecked he can do little more harm.
and for that reason Toe he not

Trouble In the Sixth
Unexpected trouble has develop
ed in the sixth congressional dis
trict, where 1t had been presumed
that Senator Elmer Thomas would
have an open field for the demo-
cratic congressional nomination.
Senator Jed johnson of Walters
has wanted to go to c~ongree--to be
exact, it might be added that Sena-
tor JED has always wanted any and
every office possible to be attached.
although he has always had a hard
time getting the people TO agree
with himself as to qualifications,
etc.
Along in June Senator Jed got at

Cotton County Enterprise. publish
