The editor of the Dallas Time*
Herald is a true-blue democrat, one
who hesitates not to openly express
his opinions upon all questions af-
fecting the rights and liberties of
the people, and thinks that the filth
and slime slingers of Texas should
be swatted, should be rebuked,
should be ignored. And this is not
all. "Would be" bosses should be
given to understand that they are
not the masters or guardians of the
free-born citizens of Texas. The
people, not the would-be dictators,
J should nominate a governor and
then elect him. They should pick a
man who is not a puppet, who is net
a political shrimp, who will not t ike
orders from self-appointed commit-
tees or leagues. A man should be
given the high honor and not a
political jack-in-the-box who wi!l
jump when its master or second
assistant deputy master pulls the
string.
Texans, real Texans, whether na-
tive or adopted, are neither weak-
lings, cowards or peons. Texans,
real Texans, are competent and
capable, are qualified to select their
own publio servants without the aid,
consent or assistance of the janus-
faced and time serving, who pose as
leaders and dare to tell free men
what they shall do and whom they
shall do and whom they shall serve.

Firt National Bank Improvements.
The First National bank has plan-
ned some extensive improvements
which have been already inaugurated
President Hohlt's office has been
furnished with a hardwood floor and
spread with elegant rugs, as has the
directors room, which has had new
furniture placad theirein. The wide
alley in the rear of the bank which
reached out to Baylor street, has
been purohased and a building to be
put thereon to give more room in
the rear, where a vault for books
and papers will be contructed. A
Cashier's cjage will be put in, and
more safety deposit boxes put in the
front vault. Altogether the im-
provements that have be6n made
and are contemplated, will make a
great deal of difference in theconver-

Not only did these boys enroll but
they organized a local club, of which
they elected J. C. Kuhlmann Presi»
dent and Theydore Quebbe Secre-
tary.
I would suggest to all the teach-
ers of Washington county to assist
the boys in organizing a local club,
electing their tfliners and where pos-
sible encourage the boys to hold a
meeting and at such a meeting take
up the subject of corn growing, and
practice the rules of meetings. This
can be done with the teachers assis-
tance which will be very much need-
ed at first, and will give satisfaction
in the future in the teaching of
agriculture in public schools.
All assistance from the teachers is
highly appreciated, and I am confi-
dent that we can make the "Boys
Corn Club" in Washington county
grow like the you rig plant itself,
when it receives the proper influence
of its surroundings.
