Mills Will Be Re-elected.
To tho E oiling Now.
The Day seems quite anxious to
have Mary Ann Martin run against
Col. Mills for congress. The Day of
course would like to see the best race
possible made against Col. Mills and
1 think it4 could find a stronger candi-
date in this city than Aunt Mary Ann
and one that is thoroughly in accord
with the Day in opposition to Col.
Mills on the great moial question of
the right to drink and get drunk but
not to commit the henious crime of
buying the drink in Texas except in
a drug store. Two years ago we were
treated to the delectable sight of some
so-called Democrats in this county
advoca'ting a political hermorphadite
who posssbly had endeared himself
to them by his staunch support of
murder and robbery in the military
days of Edmond J and about five
hundred of them voted for hi at ; some
now say they "scratched Mills" but
the vote shows that they failed to
scratch Rankin.
I think it is rather rough on the op-
position to Col. Mills after the output
of two years ago that the best that
can be offered now in the way of op-
position is a political prostitute whose
career is spotted with adulterous po-
litical practices all along tHe line from
a nigger loyal league down to prohi-
bition Democracy. But I can inform
all so-called Democrats that are anx-
ious to see Col. Mills beat that he
will be re-nominated by acclamation
and re-elected by a larger majority
than two years ago and neither the
hate of prohibition nor 'the money
of tariff thieves which has Deen
wrung from a plundered people can
prevent the unpurchasable Democra-
cy of this district from sitting down
on his opponent no matter who he
may be with a dull sickening thud
that will press the wind outi of him
like a blast from a fog-horn.
