The Oommuuon Form of Government Will
Sow Be Ob Trial—Men Elected Sat-
isfactory—How for a Better
Denison -
After the hardest fought battle in
the political biatory of Denison the
commission form of government was
adopted last Saturday. The vote
cast was not surprisingly large, but
the interest was never surpassed.
The entire city was immersed in
politics uo to its ears. Tne battle
was iougbt in homes, business cen-
ters and on the street corners. Men
mixed m the melee who have here-
tofore been pasaive in city elections.
For months the commission form of
government has been the subject ot
much newspaper discussion. At the
closing, it was a political scramble.
The evening Herald, after a long
chase, finally got Mr. Haven as its
standard bearer. The sentiment was
anything to beat Acheson. The
Gazetteer, confident that Dr.
Acbeson waa the man lor the beat
interests of the city, gave him a
hearty support, and we believe that
the future will demon.trate that our
choice was a wise one. Dr. Ache-
son baa the ability, the experience.
He is a man of public affairs; be
knows as well as any citizen of Den-
ison what is beat for our city at the
present stage of affairs. For the
past thirty-four years Dr. Acheson
hat been a prominent factor in the
industrial history ot our city. When
anything was needed for the good
of Denison to advance her interest*.
Dr. Acheson has been one of the
first to answer the call. Every
worthy enterprise has found in him
an able and tireless champion. To
make the commirsion form ot gov-
ernment a success, we sincerely be-
lieve that it has tallen into the right
hands. Messrs. Tobin and Suggs
are ideal advisers to Mayor Acne-
son. }obn Suggs is young in years
but a veteran in experience, and no
One will question that hit election
was a wise choice. A number ot
years ot protessional life has brought
him in contact with thousands of
people and all these learned quickly
to esteem him because of his attrac-
tive mentality, and he has long been
recognized as one ot the most prom-
ising young men of the community.
He is full of zeal; his judgment is
clear and quick ; be is in touch with
every impulse tbat will tend to put
Deuison where she rightly belongs
—among the foremost cities of the
state.
And then there is honest, sturdy
Pat Tobin, a splendid running male
with Commissioner Suggs. A man
who never yet went down to defeat,
because people know his worth and
love to honor him. He is a man
who has never yet sought an office
but the office has sought him. As
a business man no one has done more
for Denison than P. H. Tobin. Com-
missioner-elect Tobin measures up
to the requirements for any official
position within the gift of the people
of Denison. We cannot but con-
gratulate the people ot Denison on
the choice that they have made tor
mayor and commissioners. Such
men argue well tor the future of
Denison. The fight is over—let us
all join hands for a better Denison.
There is nothing measly about the
Gazetteer, we tender our con-
gratulations to Mr. Haven. He put
up a splendid fight, but levspnoung
men could have done as \*§D. It
has introduced him to hundreds ot
people who will remember him m
the future, and we believe that Den-
ison will recognize his ability and
worth in the future and suitably re-
ward him.
The following is the tabulated
vote cast last Saturday:

The interest in the lecture* oi the
Rev. Father Brannan at St. Joseph’s
church continues unabated. The
edifice is hardly large enough to
hold his audiences. So far at least
25 per cent have been proteatants.
The last lecture will be delivered
Sunday evening. Speaking of the
lectures a recent number of the Sa-
line Citizen, Marshall, Mo., lays:
“Those who have not heard Fath-
Brannan at the Catholic cturch,
preaching a mission there this week,
have missed a great deal. We only

Mexico has been visited by earth-
quakes. The City of Mexico re-
ceived a alight shock. In the in-
terior the city of Chilpancingo w
completely destroyed. The city of
Chilapa is also reported to have been
destroyed. The dispatch says: “The
utmost panic prevails everywhere
and people are fleeing to the open
country. The earth continues to
rock at intervals of every halt hour
and these minor shocks are complet-
ing the work of destruction of the
first earthquake.” In R|i official
statement given out it is declared
that “there is no doubt tbat the
present disturbance belongs to the
‘world shaking’ variety and that
will be found to have been felt at all
the seismograph stations in this
country as well as in Europe and
perhaps in other parts of the world.
At a fire near Gunter, eighteen
miles southwest of Sherman, the
residence of J. T. Price was de-
stroyed last Saturday morning and
eight members of the family perish-
ed in the flames. The dreadtul
holocaust is supposed to have been
the result of an accident, the explo-
sion ot *n oil can in the bands of
Mr. Price, who was building an
early fire. The very latest develop-
ments point to possible murder of
the whole family. The majority
hold, however, to the accident the-
ory.
Wouldn’t Be Dictated to By Webotor.
Dr. Bacon, a New England clergy-
man of long ago, waa reproached by
a friend with some pronunciation
which waa not "according to Web-
ster.”
Webster lived In his parish, and
the doughty divine waa not disposed
to be snubbed with the dictionary.
“What right has Webster to dic-
tate my pronunciation?” he demanded,
haughtily. “He la one of my parish
toners, and ought to get his pronun
tiatioa from me, and not I from him.”

well as others. His style is intense-
ly dramatic at well as argumenta-
tive. Lawyers should especially
hear him argue his case. He was a
lawyer all his early career and into
middle manhood, and stepped from
the bar into the pulpit.
“He makes no attacks on any one,
and argues along the line of high
development ot Christian thought,
only, ot course, as all denominations
do, fits the argument to prove his
side, whether logically or conclu-
sively, he leaves the public to say.
He is an actor, most entertain-
ing, most moving, whether to tears
or to laughter. Like Demosthenes,
he believes in action—action first,
action second, action third—action
the three requisites of an orator.
At least, that is his style. Vehe-
ment at times, always forceful. He
is a great friend of ex-Attorney Gen-
eral Clark ot Texas, Col. S. W. T.
Lanham, ex-governor of Texas, and
other prominent men of the south,
and his anecdotes of the days of the
confederacy are most vivid, animated
with humor and vigor, and enter-
taining with the vigor and force and
magnetism of lively and striking
narration. He tells a story, makes
an illuatration, and points an argu-
ment with equal skill. Withal he
is a man of the world, and shows to
have moved easily among the lead-
ing men in camp and court and all
public life. He is worth studying
as a model for his mastery ot rhet-
oric, oratory, logic and effective
presentation ot his subject No
young men who are fired with a
desire to use their tongues to per-
suade and convince, and their pres-
ence and magnetism to attract and
sway others, sbould fail to bear
Father Brannan.”
