However on the merits of the ques-

fect right to his opinion. But he over-
steps all the bounds of parliamentary
propriety when he attributes to Gov.
Shands a 'mean motive. His own self-
' respect should have restrained his pen
' here. Gov. Shands has no axe to grind.
' He is absolutely disinterested except
as he with al other southern gentle-
men is jealous for the honor of our
southern womanhood. So far from be-
ing influenced by the petty jealousy
this critic imputes to him Governor
Shands has declined more public of-
fices than the average man gets in
sight of in a life-time. If the George-

Shands. he has absolutely no right to
accuse him of such ignoble motives'.

ese; but no negroes What is true of
Cornell is doubtless true of all the
great universities. Life hi them is very
different from the college. There is
little personal contact in the class-
room. Fourth because . to be consistent
with the principle when we go north
we would have to decline to ride on
trains or in street cars or take meals
at the lunch stations. .It is 'just as
reasonable to say that 1 favor negroes
riding in white conches because 1 ride
in New York in a coach where negroes
ride as to say Gov. Shands favors edu-
cating whites and blacks together be-
cause he opposed withdrawing a
biers.
Gov. Shands needs no defense at my
hands hat hurts me is that the Bul-
letin would reprint the diatribe. In
my extensive travels away from Te.vas
1 have .said to those who asked me for
information that they could have per-
fect confidence in. the Buletin because
feet confidence in the Bulletin because
ed on the highest principles. Only last
week I. had a long talk with a gentle-
man in the St ax well Hotel in Nashville
Tennessee and think I convinced him
that Brown county and Brownwood of-
fer the best advantages in. Texas for
investment. And one of my strong
points is the high character of our
citizenship as indicated by the clean
columns of our local press. Such an
ungenerous assault on a good man's
name as that Georgetown editor makes
on Gov. Shands has" no place in a high-
class journal like the Bulletin. 1 will
hope it slipped in while Bro. Mayes
was taking a nap. Pardon the length
of this and may Santa Clans illl your

You should have climbed 'upon the pole
Instead of crawling in a- hole.
Oh! Dr. Cook. Oh! Dr. Cook '
The latest news I cannot brook-v
Copenhagen swears you missed the

But sacked the silver and the gold.

Your specks did fog and you mistook
A greasy dollar for the pole .

they never should have put it there

them from the charge of prejudice only
bv an equally humiliating charge of ig-

into it. But Gov. Shands is right in
the view he takes" of the matter.

Bulletin;
i cup the following from the San
Hilton o Express o recent date;'
Commercial organizations that allow;
themselves to be used as political
chestnut pullers lose their usefulness
arid Influence with the c people to a
great extent. It appears to be diffi-
cult for the .Texas organizations to
stay out of iiolitlcs.-Brownwood
Bulletin.
The Bulletin said- something in that
paragraph that should be seriously
considered not only by Commercial
organizations but by all . others of
like character and purpose. Especi-
ally should our educational associa-
tions including the coiinty institutes
and summer normal jtake - cogniz
ance of the suggestion. For the last
two or three years to my personal
knowledge professional office seekers.
smooth politicians posing as philan-
thropists have systematically "work-
ed" many of the county teachers in
stitutes ami summer normals in their
own interests- while duping the over
worked and underpaid country school
teachers out of their campaign ex-
penses and a fat salary as well. If
the practice continues "the system of
achevs institutes- and summer h r-
mals should be discontinued.
The same crowd of inveterate
place hunters have brought the state
teachers' association into disrepute
as an educational organization. Much
of the' valuable time of the teachers
attending these. "meetings is taken up
in-consideration of somebody's candid-
acy for State Superintendent of Pub-
lic Instruction or some other position
in the administration of educational
interests of the state. Resolutions
laudatory of some prospective can-
didate who Is known only to a small
combination of political pullers are
published over the state as deliberate
expressions of preference and used
witli telling effect upon the appoint-
ing power or uon the unsuspecting
voters who swallow down without
question every morsel dished out t)
them that way. It is high time the
practice was discontinued and those
guilty of such deception publicly re-
pudiated by- the teachers of this
state .
Please read the headline over again.
Then its tremendous significance will
dawn upon you.
