In the Dallas News of August
10, 1900, is an article from Gov.
Hogg, denouncing his enemies?
Are they in Texas politics today?
The paBt few days of clear,
warm weather has made a won-
derfdrchabgfoi' the better

It'B syqh a pity that two honor-
able candidates who aspire to be
governor, haye to take up their
tinie in proving their characters
to be good. '
About all some people do is to
go around proclaiming the short-
comings of their neighbors. Let
us be thankful, however, that in
thejeourse of time such characters
become a huge jokein their town
or community.
The Tribune is glad to learn
that the city council has under
consideration the construction of
a city ail) and has appointed a
copimittee to confer with the
commissioners court of William-
son and Bell counties as to the
building of a county line jail.
What have we in this hour of
political 'brotherly love? Joe
Bailey and CUllen Thomas, Wil-
1 liam Pojndexter and Cone John-
son, Tom Jones and Prank Nor-
ris. lorn Love and Colonel R. M.
Johnson, Clarence Ousley and
George W. Riddle and they a-
gree. Truly the lamb and the
lion have become regular side
partners in this good old day
and time. Austin Statesman.
The Austin business men ar-
rived in Bartlett yesterday after-
noon according to announcement,
but owiug to the baseball game
only a very few ' of our citizens
inome" to the visitors.
r.Mkvor IKelley was
f&poltaqd apologized for his
ptople, which was accepted in a
J most polite manner, after which
the guests departed unacquaint-
ed with the citizens of a good
town. 'Twas ever thus.
The most important develop-
ment of the day in the Mexican
situation was the position taken
by the United States there can
be but little prospect of a peace-
ful settlement unless the media-
tors recognize the military con-
quest of the Constitutionalists.
The United States thinks the
mediators should take linto con-
sideration theprobability Car-
ranza's troops soon will be in the
uity of Mexico. No names have
been suggested for the provis-
ional presidency. Carranza has
not answered the mediator's note.
From dav to day ic is urged
that the city cannot survive with
out the country, and that the
rosperity of the city is depend-
tupon the country, It has
en empha&jjr from one end
the land to the other and it js
all that the public generally be
prised of the importance of
e country development ana
jrosperity, but it Bhould not be
'overlooked that no people have a
greater interest than the farm
era m the development and well
being of the towns and cities.
Without the prosperity of the
city, the farmer falls short of
the demand which gives him
prosperity, at least a market for
much of what he produces. The
fact is that the town and country
ire ao dependent upon each other
hat one without the other would

and the city man. Yet there are
nien goujtf about the country who
would pflispn the one against the

Rr Jleu Wins First Prize.
There is great joy and much
gratitude just now among the
Civic Leaguers on account of our
victory in tho prize contest of
The Waco Morning News. Our
league won the first district prize,
which was second prize for the
entire contest, a handsome $350
piano. But wo could not have
done this except with the loyal
support of our citizens and the
untiring energy of tho boys and
girls who came to our aid. Our
most sincere thanks are extend-
ed to each one who in any way
helped us to win this prize.
Especially dowe wish to thank
those who deposited money to
help us for we "never could have
won without those deposit slips.
We feel that we made a brave
fight because we were the small-
est town in the contest and en-
tered after the contest had been
on three week. Some of the
towns competing against us were
Gatesville, Hubbard City, Mc-
Gregor, West and Waco. We
congratulated West on her first
prize and know she did some
energetic hustling to have se-
cured such a deluge of votes.
The boys and girls competing
for prizes given by the League
and the number of votes handed
in are as follows:
First prize Ruth Harlan, 12,-
689, 905 votes.
Second prize Ernest Hardin.
Floyd Webster, L. W. ' Wilnite,
11,699,510 votes. ,
Third price prize Vernon El-
lis and Otto Hoes, 8,744,390
votes.
These little folks extend sin-
cere thanks to each one who as-
sisted them.
The Civic League has no need
of a piano, but a verv urgent
need for its value, so we are an-
xious to sell our piano for about
half its actual Value, lou see
we can afford to do this since we
were not out but little money to
secure it. , So any person church
or organization, whatsoever, de-
siring a piano will find it greatly
to their interest to see the lea-
gue quite soon.
We are very busy just now do
ing lots of good, but shall not
numerate here. Just keep your
eye on the civic park and you
will see some of the good we are
doing. Reporter.

Severn Feds Tramp'
i Fat Fellers.
Neyer in the hisiory of tho base
ball carreer herb, have tho fans
had such pleasure as when the
fats and leans of The Civic Lea-
gue, the independent base ball
circuit, "shedded" their coats
for a red hot gjime'bn last Tues-
day afternoon. Both sides play-
ed "big league" ball, and the
scores were soon in the teens.
No special mention could b e
made, as each player rendered
hisservices in good "-style. Tho
coach complains to the contest
ants on the-"Seldom Fed" sid
for not "hitting the dirt," he
says they prefer to crawl insteadt
Some of the' players on the, Pat
line-up were out of the Epworth
League, and consequently this,
side had advantage of their op-,
ponents. The receipts for thV
game was over $100, and the
spectators were.by'no means dis-
appointed; about as many rooters
for one side as the other, and
plenty, of hollowing prevailed
throughput the game. After 9
innings had been played, tho
players congregated to ascertain
who had won. A close count,
during which time each "fatty"
was .blowing and the leans look-
ipg for shade beside the fats, in
dicated a score of 10 to 16 in the
lean men's favor.
HOW THEY PERFORMED
Mr. Faubion, of the Bartlett
Garage, runs bases like a Henry
Ford through bermuda grass.
Bun Scales was not as stiff as
some of the others.
Mr. Grosse, of the Mutual
Lumber Company, couldn't get
control, and was taken out of the
pitcher's box after he threw two
out curves and a "slobbering fit.''
"Fatty" Lawrence played with
all ease. He caught one fly a
butterfly. Loraine will probably
be released by the Civic League,
if he gets his release, next year
he'll sign up with the suffragetts
team of Donahoe postoffice.
J Will Duncan declares that ne
will not clerk next year. He ex-
presses himself as being well
pleased with his playing. Bill
will reduce his weight, and is at
present drinking vinegar in order
to make a medium size profes-
ional not too big,
Bro. McCarty, tried to con-
vert the ball, but the low-down
skinners passed by him, and went
to the field,
Ike Brown is sure some fielder
He is in the market for a base
ball suit, anyone having a pretty
ball suit for sale, can find Ike at
the ball park from, 6 until 7 o'-
clock each evening, where he
will practiee sliding.
F. H. Leslie was thrown out
on 1st base when he enterred in-
to a conversation with the coach
as to the value of Hart, Schaff-
ner & Marx clothes. Felix says
he could slide on bases good and
never snag this brand of trousers,
but that the infield was dirt floor.
Tom Talbot and Del Leather-
man are some sliders. They de-
clare that they have not had
practice in some time, but Del
was caught in the act of sliding
down the steps at tho rear of
the drug store two days before
the game. Tom says he will try
out next year with Jarrell, that
is ii he can make good here.
Roy Bartlett and Bob ..White
.were stars in the game Bob
made a balk, and was pulled out
of the hole by "Roy. Bob says
it was the best game he ever
saw, and declared that lots of
league teams didn't make but 1
or 2 scores and they made 16
close games don't appeal to him,
J. M. Allen and Prof. Chris
tian played a good game, andrt
will practice a few days out of
each week for tho next game.
Big Skeet, is some player, and
is some base stealer, out of 4
times up he secured 3 scores.
The Civia Leagtfe will probably

confused, be-
cafrso of too much Ball. Ho is
for Tom Ball and Lean Ball and
couldn't field his position for .
worry. Ho caught nearly every
ball that came along-except
Tom, and ho can't run very good
Clyde Rudasill and Bill Koll-
man are rubbing their arm with
sund paper to remove tho sore-
ness. They both deserve a coco
cola and a dime's worth of lico-
rice for their excellent work.
Fred Blair and Aubrey Dick-
son have ordered a rule book to-
learn more abouf the game, It
iB wonderful to see how these
two big robust fellows porfdrm
in tho "field." ' "r
Dr, Harlan and Dr. Sutton are
demons on hitting the "pill"
They.'ve just simply gotthb dope
and you can keep from dodging.
They made it up not to spike each
other before the game.
Sani Bridges just couldn't
come back, however he done
very well for an old mart.
Marvin Skeetiker Wright whs
'round here, in this game, bufche
will still retain his job at the
Mill. ,
A. F. CzarowiUs played a good
game, and kept the spectators
eagerly on the look-out. He has
trad tortrier experience, having
worked with several teams"-in
north Texas. A. F. coached one
teajn two yearp ago that had
quite a reputation, and they pull-
ed out of sevfirfll hnlptf. TTo dia.
posed of the team, which broiight

Rev. McKenzie was the man
that hollowed for the Fats. ,and
occasionally Brother Rhodes yell"-
ed tor the "Seldom Feds," both
these brethren wanted to play,
but upon being informed that
first bounce was not counted,
each refused to participate. It
was a great disappointment' to
them, for .they had whittled two
dayspri broom sticks to Use as
bats 'for this occasion. I Don't be-
disappointed, they'll play again.
It was rumored after the game
that there would have been mere
scores made, and a better game
but the umpire was not fair, He
let a man take first base without
striking, and said that the pitch-
er was "wild" everybody there
knew that this was not so, for
he never showed the least signs
of such umpire ChaUdoin ap-
poligized to the twirler after the
game.
Manager Porter, pf the Lea-
gue (civic) announces that he
has placed an order for more
players with the National Base
Ball Commission at Lilac, and a
much better game can be looked
for next time. Mr. Porter is
some manager. andTwill be pro-
moted from this honorable place
to score keeper.
We tried to show no partiality
and mention every participant,
but if your name is left out. it is
unintentional, and purely an
oversight.
The holiness meeting at the
tabernacle now in progress will
continue two or more weeks.
