This afternoon I, C. Saunders, presi-
dent of the Bonham Board of Trade,
cccompanied by W. P. Crawford and
T. B. Williams, went out on the Ivan-
hoe road to have two big mudholes
filled. Mr. Saunders went before the
commissioners' court and that body
agreed to hire the work done if the
above gentlemen would see to all the
particulars. That was a quick trade
and a good one, as these two holes are
a menace to the trade of Bonham
from that section. Before leaving Mr.
Saunders took occasion to say that the

ing, printed in yesterday’s Herald, was
a good one and he commended it—

THE TERRELL ELECTION LAW.
If Judge Terrell still stands by his
election law Just as It is he ought to
announce the fact, for everything
seems to indicate that it has noti**
stanch friend in the whole state —
Denison Herald.
Judge Terrell Is out of politics and
his election law should be relegated
to the same position. One trial of
that measure has aroused the people
from one end to the other.—Fort
Worth Telegram.
Some months ago the Commercial
took the position in the above and was
roughly abused by the Telegram. That
was when everybody was cheering the
Terrell ejection law. It was popular
then to denounce ji man who w^nt
against a tidal wave of popular clam-
or. That was before It had been test-
ed. In fact, the Telegram’s candi-
date for governor. Judge C. K. Bell,
the low man. expected to win the nom-
ination through the Infamous details
of the Terrell election law. It is a
fraud and a shame, a relic of barbar-
ism and ought to be relegated to the
scrap nlle. The Commercial has al-
this opinion. The Tele-
gram has reforfhed.—Georgetown
Commercial.
The Telegram has done nothing of
the kind, for there is no necessity for
reformation. The Telegram has never
been a champion of the Terrell elec-
tion law, but has conslstentlv opposed
it from the very first, regarding It aa
* measure of an entirely too drastic
nature.
The Telegram did oblect to the at-
tempt made to engraft the blanket
primary feature unon the law at the
special session of the state legisla-
ture hut that objection was based
wholly on the ground that such leg-
islation would he Illegal, on account of
not having been embraced In the gov-
ernor's call for the special session.
If wo remember correctly, the Com-
mercial was an ardent advocate of the
adontlon of the blanket primary at
ihat time and may have received a
eentle calling down therefor at the
bands of this paner. The Telegram
does not abuse either men or meas-
ures.
The Telegram’s candidate for gov-
ernor did not exnect to win the nomi-
nation through the provisions of the
Terrell election law. He had a right
to expect the nomination orr account
of his merit, ability and long faithful
public service.—Fort Worth Telegram.

Two haughty old women were driv-

early hour this morning, probably
from South station. An old negro was
driving the outfit, which looked like
a lineal descendant of ie wonderful
one bos* shay Just before It fell apart,
but the two old women were leaning
back luxuriously with an expression
of “At last we’re riding In a cab.”
Their pride had a fall, however, when
they disembarked on the curb in front
of a restaurant to discover that they
had come all the wav with a wnde-
script garment with bright ping
stripes banging half way out of one
of their valises.
“Why didn’t you tell us?” they said
