Which reminds this writer Of a
letter he has received from j. .
JorRensen at OwoSso. Michigan. who
declares that his real home is Wes-

Florida. He suggests that Valley
fruits be heralded more and more
under the name OF Texas traits. Mr.

The Brownsville Herald. for which
we thank him and in turn tell him
that he might keep up that adver-

TO one town in one year. or about
ten times aS many men. women and
children as there are in Brownsville

that it would not be so bad for
everybody living here TO get

from U. S. Attorney Fred Hor-
owitz that he has come 70
Brownsville TO investigate the cleo
ton in Hidalgo county.
This election has been aired from
one end of the country to the other.
It may not be brought 10 an end.
II there is anything to be done
about 1t. it is hoped that it can be
done and ended this time.

Tee(cend upon this section. the bet

Is probably not doing so much dam
age on the outside as some here
think, but II is in aroused feelings
here az home that II hurts.
This is Surmised by the fact that
up until three weeks ago this writer

came here he knew that there was
somewhat a local disagreement poll
tlcally, but he had not held il such
a black mark against the Valley.
The people generally get what the
majority want. Here is hoping that
we can soon all get together with \
one accord again. And this is not
an advocating how it shall be done.
