He is a successful business man and
has the right ideas of the office he
is seeking. It is not his plan that
the State SuperintendenFshould be
dictatorial and czar like in dealing
with State schools, but that this
office should be taken out of politics
and run in a business like way. He
has made a success financially of
his own affairs and the State would
be safe in trusting Ed Bentley to
this place—Richardson Echo.

Hen. J. E. Gilbert
For District.Judge.
; Judge J. E. Gilbert, appointed by
the Governor as judge ,of the 68th
District Court of Dallas county last
summer, without solicitation on his
part, but as the result of a strong
endorsement of many lawyers and
- *
citizens of the county, has yielded
to petitions and personal requests
to become a candidate for that office
subject to the democratic primaries.
therefore
and his announcement
appears in this paper
Thoujgh serving two terms as
school trustee, and giving much of
his time, without compensation, to
movements to better conditions of
his city, county and state, Judg
Gilbert has never before been a can
iddate for office. He has lived in
Dallas for 27 years and enjoys a
high standing, both as. a lawyer and
as a citizen.
f - . ......
' As attesting the esteem in which
he is held by those in a position to
know him best, we quote the follow-
ing fron^a petition, signed by 200
lawyers, requesting him to become
a candidate:
*' Since the moment you qualified,
down to the present time, you have
discharged the duties of your office
in an able, fearless and conscien-
tious. manner. In every respect
you have measured up to the high
ideals claimed for you. * * *
that type of judge who is daunted
by nothing that stands between him
and the obligation of his oath.”
Pledging himself to a faithful per-
formance of the duties. Judge Gil-
bert will prize very highly the ap-
proval of the voters.
The above is taken from the
Texas Mesquiter, and is a just tri-
bute to Judge Gilbert. Having ad-
justed his business to assume the
appointment mage by Gov. Neff, it
would seem only just that he be
elected to the position for a full
term, especially as his service has
been so highly commended.

CHEWING
TOBACCO
Penn’s spells quality.
Why?
Because—
Penn’s is packed air-
tight in the patented
new container — the
quality is sealed in.
So Penn’s is always fresh
— an entirely new idea for
chewing tobacco.
Have you ever really
chewed fresh tobacco?
Buy Penn’s the next time.
Try it.^Notice the fine con-
dition.
And after that, use fresh
chewing tobacco — Penn’s.
