IL Is well for a Texan to know his TeNs. William

FOR instance:
Fort Worth IS the third greatest meat picking ano

Growth OF rural identification In Texas Is indi-
Gated bv the fact that $500 farm homes are served

Walls And The Stump He Planted

In the long ago Thomas NJ. Campbell was a candi-
date for the democratic nomination for governor and
James Stephen Hoeg was in the land Of the living.
Now Campbell, since known as the Sage Of Pales-
tine" had been a deYoted admirer Of Hogg. The
great commoner was asked by a voter: what is
the principal qualification Of Campbell for govern
orr"
Hogg smiled and said. "well, II Tom meets a stump
In the road he walks around the stump; he never
falls over It,"
Dis. Atty. John A. Walls is q man Of brilliant
achievements and a long continuous record in Of
flee.
He is reminded that two governments, national In
scope, constitute q barrier automatically and COM
mercially, that It Is easier to walk around than fall
over.
This IS no reflection on the district attorney.
First he planted the stump in the highway.
Then ne refused &c walk around the stump.
In the finish he fell over the stump o. his own
making.
A snappy and costly reaction followed his fall

sris a pity-but It is true.
The moral OF the tale Is that it Is wiser to walk
around a stump. self planted or otherwise, than 1t
is to fall over the stump.
