"Wet or dry?"
In the moantime let us all pull
for Bartlett.
Gov. Lanham will probably
call aspeoial session of the legis-
lature to convene Mirch 20.
How about the Bohool tax prop-
osition? Whether Bell county
goes wet or remains dry, let us
Kby all means have a good school.

a drbuth or flood in Bell county.
Waco Times Herald,
Fiiom all indications there are
Hkoly to bo some hot old times in
China soon. At present the sit-
uation is reported to be quite
serious, and grave apprehension
is entertained concerning the
threatened uprising.
Tiie trouble with this old world
today is that she ia dying for the
want of .more love among human-
ity. The rich and the poor, the
high" and 'the low, the irudlte
and ignorant should all be united
with the ties of lovo, until this is
accomplished there will be many,
many dark corners, longing for a
ray of sunshine, Humanity
wants to lov4) and beloved. That
itf, indeed, tne only way to win
human bei
While the Tribune heartily
sanctions the movement of tho
citizens meeting last Monday in
reference to maintaining tho Tab-
ernacle, J and the iberality mani-
fested on the part of those who
so generously contributed to the
cause, yet it could hardly help
but wonder how much enthusi-
asm could be aroused over a
proposition to purchase about
$300 worth of hose for fire pro-
tection. Citizons of Bartlett, we
have the water, pump, etc, but
some of these days there will be
u ttau iuaa iu inu town un on ac
count of- indifference and neg-
leot to invest a few dollars in
purchasing fire hoBe. The Trib-
une would suggest that the city
take charge of the fire apparratus
now on hand, and that the citi-
zens purohase new and sufficient
hose, the city assuming entire
control of same, and furthermore
let there be a thorough reorgani-
zation of the fire department, as
is done in all well regelated cities
and towns. That is the only
way by which the city can have
the proper protection against fire.
Citizens of Bartlett let this bo che
very next movo in our town. It
is dangerous to procrastinate.
Wake up, now; tomonow may be
too late.
On Saturday, March 3, 1000,
will be the inauguration of a,
great day in each month for
Bartlett. Wo refer to the Sales'
and Trades' day. Let eyery far-
mer who has stock To trado or
sell, or who wonts to purohase
some good merchandise at a low
cost, oomp to Bartlett on that
day.
Every day the, editor of the
Tribune reads some "howl"
about enacting new laws, some
of which are good ones but if
we would only see that those wo
now have on the statuto books
were enforced, it would b much!
better. i
What Will The Harvest Be?
"Waco Times-Herald
The report that Cyclone Davis
is to become a democrat is not
surprising, but coupled with the
statement that Dr. Cranfill will
join him in leading 6000 prohi-
bitionists into the democratic
party, it is a trifle sensational.
Of course if these 6000 members
of an anti-demooratic party have
become demoorats, there is no
reason why they should not
affiliate with the organization.
; but there coming ,B crodited to a
determination to swing the dem-
ocratic party into tho prohibition
crimp and make it the means of
carrying out the prohibition
policy of extreme sumptuary
legislation. Democraoy and pro-
hibition are as far apart as the
poles. Their principles are dia-
metrically opposite. But, if the
prohibitionists choose to enter
the democratic primaries, thero
isn't any way to deter them.
Such is tho effeot of tho enact-
ment of a law controling pri-
mary elections. The Terrell
election law takes tho manage-
ment of party affairs away from
democrato and turns tho party
over to any set of malcontents
that may have designs" upon it.
The republicans, if they bo do-
sire, oan do as the prohibitionists
are said to have determined to
do, though they tahy refrain be-,
cause of their connection with
the dominant national party, but
tho socialists and other politico!
sects, which are praotioally out-
lawed by the Torrell aot, are en-
couraged to parlioipato in the
demooratfo primaries. "What
tho end will be is hard to con-
oeive, but its contemplation
affords little consolation to gen-
uine democrats.
