Fort Worth Has a Favorite Son

District Attorney Robert A. Stuart is said to be
the favorite son Of one-half the voters of Fort Worth
and Tarrant county. He was a state senator Tor four
years. He made life interesting, or thought ne 1io'
for Governor Moody while the son Of Williamson
county was serving his first term. Then Stuart be-
came q candidate for district attorney against Jesse
Martin, incumbent. Martin was serving his first term
and was a candidate for denomination.
The Rev. J. Frank Norris backed Stuart TO the
limit. All the Hoover democrats backed Stuart.
won the primary nomination by e very scant MAORI
~. There was a contest threatened; indeed 1t was
launched but the nomination finally landed In the
Jap OF Stuart and he was elected in November OF last
year. There is a we'll defined rumor afloat in North
Texas that the Rev. j. Frank Norris would like TO
play the political role in Texas that Bishop Cannon
Ia playing In Virginia and elsewhere, with Stuart his
first choice for the office ot governor subject to the
democratic primary in the month Of July, 1880.
Bishop Cannon has placed an independent ticket
In the field in Virginia. Those who are said to be be-
hind the Stuart movement call themselves democrats
and should they decide to take a whirl in the political
arena then the name Of Stuart viii appear on the
democratic primary ballot as their standard bearer
and choice for the office now so ably filled by the
red-headed son and idol Of Williamson and many
other counties Of the Lone Star commonwealth.

Millennium to be Ushered In

War God Mars has been a terror since the very
beginning Of recorded history. Man has been a fight
ing brute since his first appearance on the surface Of
the earth. Now the millennium is to be ushered in
by the tribes of man.
That remarkable document known as the Kellogg
BRAND treaty for remuneration Of war was proclaimed
July "a by President Herbert Hoover at a simple
White House ceremony.
Speaking Of the treaty the president said: 1T sug-
sested a new step in international law, and repre-
sented a platform from which there is instant appeal
to the public opinion Of the world as TO specific acts
and deeds"
And then in conclusion the president added that
he would dare predict that the influence Of the treaty
for the remuneration of war will be felt in a large pro-
portion Of all future international acts"
He announced that the laying down Of three
American cruisers would be suspended until there has
been an opportunity for full consideration Of their
effect upon the final agreement for parity with Great
Britain that I expect 10 be reached"
Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald Of the British
empire on the other side of the Atlantic was in the
picture at the same time that President Hoover was
prcclaiming to the world the treaty for remuneration
Of war.
Macdonald announced a program Of definite re-
auctions in naval building and a slow down Of the
current program Of British naval construction.
woodrow Wilson did not dream in vain. He did
not plan in vain. He did not die broken hearted in
vain. His dream OF the outlawry or remuneration OF
war BY the nations Of the world would come to pass
and that the blood and treasure sacrifices Of the
World war would make the universe safe for de-
mocracy.
Lest we forget. Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald
Is the leader Of the socialist labor party Of Great
Britain. He is one Of the worlds outstanding states
men. At the beginning Of the World war he was n
pacifist. He was hocted and hated BY a vast ma
jority Of the people Of Great Britain. His picture was
turned 10 the wall.
Now he Is the foremost advocate Of lasting peace
In all Europe and has announced his willingness TO
throw in the discard the naval mastery Of the seven
seas upheld by his empire for four centuries.
Macdonald speaks for the labor world. He was a
socialist before he became a laborite. Now his influ-
ence is commanding. his voice is appealing and his
messages ring around the world.
