Tho Incoming governor Hon. 0. B. Colquitt with tho
beginning ot his administration will bo tho distributor
ot a considerable amount of public pie Important stato
orflcos and placeB of minor importance Tho governor-to-bo
luiB announced on nioro than ono occasion in em-
phatic terms that no appointments will bo made until
after ho has assumed tho gubernatorial chair and it Is
qnlto ovldent that no one at-thls time Is justified lntours-
lng tbo assurance thati he la solid for a stool at tho plo
counter.
Tho following are tho plnces to bo filled by tho now
govornor somo of thoso positions being recently created
Dut most of them being now held by friends of tho. pres-
ent administration:
Colquitt will name IiIb own successors as a member ot
ihe Texas railroad commission. This Is tho first tlmo
in. tho history of tho State when such a situation has
come to pass. Colquitt was elected for a torm of six
years In 1908 his term of office thereforo expiring In
1014. His successor will hold office for two years when
ho may go before the people for election. Tho salary of
a Tailroad commissioner Is ?4Q00 per year the same as
thali pf the governor with the oxceptlon that the latter
te given n homo In which to livo while he Is in office
Three names aro hieing mentioned for this place that
of non. It. W. Finlcy of Austin that of S. L. Erwln of
Honoy Grovo and John L. Worthom of Houston.
When Governor Campbell signed tho penitentiary bill
ho announced emphatically his belief that the
law will become operative January 20 as contemplated
hy the legislature that enacted tho measure. This means
that Colquitt will name tho threo penitentiary cotnmls-
Blonors whoso positions aro created by tho law. These
offices pay ?3C00 annually with tho added ' provision
that thoy shall have tho use of homes at Huntsvlllo.
Their financial roward therefore Is oxactly equivalent
to that of tho governorship. All traveling oxpenses will
ho paid while the commissioners are out on official busi-
ness The now law creates other positions as for ex-
ample ait audltorshlp but! this position Is to bo filled
hy a separate board composed of tho State treasurer the
controlled and tho attorney general. It was desired
te get this position entirely out of politics so this board
of State officers was selected to make the choice of the
auditor of tho system. As the bill was first written the
secretary of state was a member of this appointive board
hut when It was recalled that this official Is himself an
appointee.' of the govornor Jtl was decided to substitute
-tho attornoy general.
' Upon these men will fall largely the responsibility of
Inaugurating penal reform In Texas. To them Governor
Colquitt will look for results and tho governor himself
will bo held responsible by tho people of tho State to
Tcdeom his pledge to Improve prison conditions and meth-
ods In Texas.
Tho Incoming govornor will appoint at the beginning
of his administration tho two members of tho State in-
surance board created by tho law recently enacted
lulling to sqciro the emergency clause this measure will
not become ottdfetlvo until about tho first of December.
At that time tho governor will naturally appoint tho pres-
ent re rating board as tho Stato Insurance board to
carry on tho work to which they aro accustomed and
which will ndti bo essentially different under tbo now law
from that called for by tho present statute. 9
The bill provides for overlapping torms of twelve ana
twenty-four months but Messrs. Wright and Hamby con-
BtttutlDB the fjio rating board announced during tho ses-
sion ortJie legislature that they will not bo In posit n
to retain office under the Incoming administration but
ihat they will retire from office at the conclusion of
Campbell's term. This means that Colquitt will have
to appoint two insuranco commissioners tho first day or
hla administration whoso terms shall run for almost the
lull time provided for In tho new law and who will then
rooBt probably bo reappointed for tho remainder of Col-
..... ti iimmn contended thnt Uio terms or
till ILL a iui ui " "" j.
tho Insuranco commissioners should overlap and tt was
finally so provided. This will have the effect of ex-
tending tho torn or insuranco commissioners Into the
administration of a governor by whom they wore not
appointed. Bach governor however will have dut int.
his tarnf the privilege of naming two commissioners
being entirely free to remove such commissioners at any
time Uio Cause to be spread upon tho records of his of-
fice and reported to tho senate at tho noxt session of the
hesoranimlSBtouorsliJps pay $2500 per year ncces-
gary traveling expenses being provided for.

Tho Hon. I j. T. DUflhlcll present .Stnto tax commit

lowing educational lnstltuftons: College of Industrial
Arts Denton; San Houston Normal college Huntsvllle;
North Texas Normal Donton: Southwest Texas Normal
San Marcos; West Texas Normal Canyon. Thoso places
are filled by tho govornor In conference with tholr re-
spective bonrds. Thero will probably bo no Immediate
change In any of theso institutions.

THEY SHOULD. BE RETAINED.
Itjias been said but we know not with what degree
of authenticity that tho Incoming governor Hon. O. B.
Colquitt will make no change In exercising his appoint-
ive powers with reference to the present management of
tho State's eleemosynary institutions wnero suuu wu-
tutlous bavo been judicially and efficiently conducted.
Whon the recently and soon to bo elected governor takes
his chair Tho Reporter believes that ho will act in a
way that will redown ip tho best interests of the Insti-
tution of the Btato and that ho is a man too big and too
broad to bo swerved from a course that will not pro-
mote their future wollfaro In thto connection The
Reporter will also &ny that It believes that it voices
the scntlmeut of tho entire population of Ablleno and
Taylor county 'In its hereby expressed deslro for tfco
retention of Dr. T. D. Bass superintendent and Dr. M.
M. Carrick assistant of tho Stato Epileptic Colony lo-
cated at this place.
Those gontlcmqn havo proven themsolves to be of tho
most honorable aitd highest type of citizens as weU as
demonstrated their ability to manage tho Institution in
ovory particular In a moat efficient way.
Tho superintendent Dr. Bass and his capable assist-
ant Drl' Carrick are graduates of honor and post-graduates
of medical colleges of intier-stato reputation and
each havo had tho advantage of an Intern In prominent
hospitals an opportunltyjiccorded to very tew. Thoy
Mave a wide acquaintance throughout tho state and those
. nvn ron.w to attest to tholr qualifications for tho
positions thoy now occupy aro by no means confined
in thin snntlnii Of the state.
Tho citizenship of this city and county nas a ueiwr
opportunity of noting tho manner in which this ono ot
tho greatest institutions of tho state has been conducted
and tho gontlemen named aro 'unhesitatingly recom-
mondod for retention to their prosent positions. It is
nlao bollevod that a change would ho hazardous to the
hest Interests of tho State Epileptic Colony lhoy le-
llovo that tho State Ls boon fortunato in scouring uiu
services ot Buch a strong administration for its important
charge located at Abilene and that It will bo doubjy
fortunate if thoso gonWcmon will consent to remain and
Governor-elect Colquitt Bhall wisely decree that thoy
shall bo retained during hla ontlro gubernatorial term.

Wo bellove that tho opposite is true but wo know that
tho tide has turned and the above Impression Is errone-
ous. There has novcr been a vote on tiho proposition
and many farmers who signed the petition against an
election havo told us of their regret. Many havo stated
that thoy misunderstood tho proposition others thati It
was misrepresented to them and all that thoy did not
take tho tlmo to consider same Id is true' that at a
mass meeting the reception to Mr A. H". Kirby was any-
thing but oncouraglng and that the maority applauded tho
speeches of tho orators of tho opposition but this did not
speak the sentiment of Merkel and tho Merkel country.
Tbero was is and always will be opposition to tho
movement hero bub this opposition Is not tho majority
of this precinct by any great big bit Thoy can make
