submit his name to any •so-called (and
m‘s-called) Democratic primary for
thinning out candidates for Governor
so as to leave out on the prohibi-
tion side all except those whom he
calls the "bosses” desire to run. He is
— in line with Democratic usages in this.
[ As a matter of fact, no such primary
could be held as a l>emocratic pri*
mary. It would be s subterfuge, in
■reality a prohibition party move, with
a thinly disguised attempt to dodge
the fact by calling it a “prohibition-
ist-Democratic primary.” Comptroll-
er Lane is right. As a real fact, he
is in line with all that both Dr. Gam-
brell and Sterling P. Strong and all
the others of the Anti-Saloon I-eague
have insisted upon and advocated—
Lane has been the stalwart of the
starlwarts among them. Just why
they don’t want him is a mystery.
And if they prefer Cullen F. Thomas,
who is a recent convert to prohibition,
who should be told to “tarry at Jericho
until his beard grows,” as far as run-
ning for Governor as a prohibition-
ist is concerned—thus profiting by the
lesson taught in running Judge Ram-
sey, who had also never done anything
for prohibition (except run for office),
then they must be able to show why
they changed from the line Lane has
pursued, in harmony with the hereto-
fore declared purposes and principles.

The Journal asks attention to the
fac-simile letter re-produced on its
first page, from Sterling P. Clark of
Fort Worth. Mr. Clark made a year’s
contract last year for advertising in
The Journal. The results were so sat-
isfactory that he renews it for another
year, and sends us a cheerful tribute
to the value of this paper in Tarrant
County, and especially in the aGreat
Arlington Country, as an advertising
medium. Others would find it equally
so were they to make intelligent use
of our columns. The day for back-
