Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Johnston
of near Dallas visited at the

Perry Friday of last week. Mr.
Johnston also called in Carroll-

A freeman true, he had dared to stand
And a right to the king’s highway demand
In the face of the greatest in all the land!
He speechless stood, and his brown face paled

Mesquite has organized a Law
and Order League. An organi
zation like this wonld not be
amiss in Carrollton.
Friends of Hon. Thos. B. Love
are booming him for attorney
General at the next election. If
he runs he will win because that
is a habit of his, due to the fact
that be conducts himself in such
a way that be deserves to win.—
Mesquite Mesquiter.

Several of the county papers,
including the Texas Mesquiter
and the Irving Index, are ex
plaining why no more poll taxes
were paid in their town this year.
Both the above papers say that
the voting precints are not large
enough to give their towns a
creditable showing. In this con-
nection, the same thing might
be said of Carrollton. With
Farmers Branch two miles south
Trinity Mills two miles north,
Coppell just west of ns and Noell
Junction just east, Carrollton’s
voting precinct is cut down very
small. We draw trade from
each of the above sections, how-
ever, and that is what counts
after all.
A Kansas contemporary warns
boys as follows; “Boys have no
idea how closely the business
men of a town watch them and
what keen knowledge they have
of the average young man’s ha-
bits. Every bank in this town
knew the name of every boy in
this town who was playing the
bucketshop last summer. They
know the boys who drink and
carouse, they know the wages
paid, habits of life, and all that,
pretty accurately. Boys given
to such only fool themselves and
their parents.”

General Washing
Bound for Cambi
' In it the general,
And the fate of a nation was in
Riding before came horsemen twain,
If the truth be told, they were young
They reached at length, in the narrow road,
The farmer, perched on his fragrant load.
Like dreams the changing years hnveiled
Into the realm of the sitent dead •
Since seventeen seventy-five, and June
' Made bridal dance to the river’s tune.
And then, as now, on the world’s broad face
The lovliest green-clad, leaf-crowned space
Was the old West road to the ferrying place.
Here Jonathan Parsons, a man of peace,
On a cart heaped high with the earth’s increase,
Thro’ the woodland sweet with the flowering thorn,

“Lazybones, haste! You are all too slow,
How can we pass, we should like to know?
General Washington rides this way!
Turn out! Turn out for the coach!” cried they.
But Parsons doubted the couriers’ word. f
The soldier hero? ,Twas quite absurd!
He was still in congress the last he heard.
He turned, looked back through the vista green;, ♦
No sign of the uncrowned king was seen.
These were playful youths, it was very plain.
He would meet their sport with a calm disdain
And his right to the road to the end maintain.
A droll procession in truth they made
That summer day in the green arched glade.
A frowsy colt was the first in view.
Vanguard of the rustic’s retinue:
A white mare next, then oxen four
(“Fjve cattte-team,” the name it bore).
Then the peasant prince, who a crown would scorn,
High on his throne of fresh cut corn.
The baffled horsemen behind him came,
And last of all rode the one whose name
Was yet to conquer the pride of kings,
Whose truth and courage the world yet sings.
Still unmindful of rank so near,
Parsons the order refused to hear.
When, nearing the ferry where all must wait—
“Make Way! Make way for the coach of state!”
