Change in the College.
With the new year comes a change
in the leadership of Panhandle
Christian College. Prof. A. C.
Elliott of Waco comes from a chair
in Texas Christian University to ac-
cept the presidency of the Hereford
institution and Chas. Q. Barton, the
retiring president, has accepted a
flattering position in Dallas. The
change will not disturb conditions át
the College and the work of im-
provement and growth so success-
fully instituted will go on with un-
abated vigor under Mr. Elliott.
The change came as a complete
surprise to the students and general
public, but has A-eálly been under
way for several weeks. It was with
extreme reluctance on both sides
that Mr. Barton relinquished hie
work hére. In Mr. Elliott, how-
ever, the T. C. U. board feels that
; it has accomplished the difficult task
of finding a man to take Mr. ¡Bar-
ton's place.
Mr. Elliott, thé new president, is
a member of the class of '92 of
Texas Christian University, or
I "Add-Ran" as it was then called.
He carefully prepared for his work
as teacher and has kept abreast
with educational progress through-
out his work. He has successfully
filled the position of superintendent
of several Texas high schools and
his promotion to the work here is in
appreciation of his work for the
past two years as professor in Texas
Christian University.
Mr. Barton, the retiring president,
is a man whose loss will be keenly
felt by the entire community. By
the students and faculty of the Col-
lege, and by, the people'of the town,
be was admired and respected for
his worth and esteemed as a per-
sonal friend. His work in the Col-
lege, though of short duration, has
been of incalculable good. In ways,
which can now hardly be appre-
ciate^, he has conserved the strength
and added to the power of the insti-
tution. Asa fitting tribute to his
deserved popularity among the
educator* of the state, Mr. Barton
was last week elected to his J:hird
term as secretary of the Texas
State Teachers' Association. Mr.
Barton and his family are at present
in Waxahachie.
Dick Bowman Urged.
Dick Bowman, one of the leading
attorneys of Amarillo, is being urged
by his friends to become a candidate
for the legislature from this district.
No better representative could be
sent to Austin.
John Bell Suicides.
On Tuesday night of this week,
JohnSL, Bell, former court steno-
of this district, committed

Mr. Smith Announces.
By a glance at our announcement
column of this issue, it will be seen
that Bern H. Smith is offering him-
self as a candidate for the office of
County Treasurer of Deaf Smith
County. It gives us pleasure to
present his name to the voters and
speak a word in his behalf.
Mr. Smith, better known as
"Bern," is not unknown to our Deaf
Smith County readers, since he has
been before them almost continuously
for a number of years in a business
capacity. Coming from Missouri
with his father some six years ago,
he secured employment in the mer-
cantile establishment of Smith,
Walker & C*, and waj retained by
the present management when they
purchased the business from the
original owners.
Mr. Smith is still with the house
under the name of the Hereford
Mercantile Company, in which
capacity, he has made many
personal friends. T?
In Bern's behalf we would say
that he is honest, trustworthy and in
every way qualified for the office to
which he aspires. He asks that the
voters investigate his claims and
give them due consideration at the
polls next November when they go
to cast their ballots for county
(rcactiMr
For County and District Clerk.
We take pleasure in presenting
the name of W. M. Cogdell - *hi«

his merits, so suffice it to state that
no one who knows him is able to say
ought against him.
Mr. Cogdell has lived in Texas
for twenty-three years, coming from
Limestone county to Hereford four
years ago. Both at his former home
and at Hereford, he enjoys the
fullest confidence of the people.
Mr. Cogdell has had ripe experience
in office work of various kinds which
especially fits him for the office of
County Clerk.
Mr. Cogdell says that he wishes
the voters to consider his candidacy
upon his merits as a citizen and that,
if elected, he will put forth his best
effort to make them a good officer.
As soon as his business interests
will admit, Mr. Cogdell says he will
endeavor to see all the people.
We bespeak for Mr. Cogdell due
consideration from the voters of this
county.
Notice to the Public.
I wish to express my sincere
thanks to you for the strong support
I received the past year, and ask
for a very liberal share of your pat-
ronage during the year 1906.
Yours very truly ,
J. G. Callsns.
