St would be exceedingly unfortunate at this time if what passe tor our
. democratic leadership should fail through the grabbing of supposed pro-

The Southern farmers have long stood out against the fallacies et

to desert this outworn fetich and stand out against privilege an excep-
tional opportunity is presented for a great triumph in November and
two years later.
. Reverting to the apparent defeat of McCumber we. may expect to
see tn the future consideration ot the pending bill a disposition among
republicans to modify materially the radical tariff policy the adminis-
tration has been attempting to write into the statutes. If the result in
North Dakota Is not taken as a warning there will be a still mow lm-
nraaalve demonstration of popular disapproval given in Nowember.

: . - . for Governor Neff a Rraominaaon
The precedent observed for so many years among Texan democrats
of renominating for n second term democratio governors is not binding
rpon democratic voters. They may it they see need tor a change In
Ibe office select another candidate. N
. Not in many years have they found this to be a need however sad
The Post feels sure that it is in agreement with the great majority of
Texas democrats when it ssys thst no need exists now for a change in
executives at Austin and when it predicts that Governor rieff win be
renominated without serious opposition.
' In his opening announcement for nnominatlon at the hands of the
democratic voters of the State Governor Neff sets forth in clear-cut
t&d unlm passioned form the record of his stewardship and no unpreju-
Clced man or woman can consider that record carefully and in the
"-ht of the times when it was made without being moved to commend
the governor for the fine spirit hs has shown In the conduct of his office
and the efficiency he has manifested aa an executive.
Condition in the State have been abnormal during the time that
Governor Neff has been in office but he has met them with courage
' and with wisdom and with the interest of the people always at heart
He has insisted on economy at all times. At a time when the pec-
jie generally were suffering from the financial depression he vetoed
appropriations which were desirable from many standpoints to pre-
vent aa Increase in n burden of taxation which the people were already
unable to bear. ' .
. While he has been severely criticised for not stving-lnrger aid to
the schools it is only necessary to say thst he did approve appropria-
tions of $2J00.0OO for rural Khool aid and $3000000 for aiding all the
schools ot the State without making it necessary to raise -the tax rate.
.'. in making provision for the schools it has been necessary during the
- pest two years to take into consideration the ability ot the taxpayers
I " to pay. Education in Texas hss no more loyal friend than Governor
S Neff and The Post feels that hs hss done his duty as he saw it in the
matter of school expropriations. .
.Without going into detail of his conduct of the various phases ot
II the State's government. The Post may say that Governor Neff has
proved himself in every wsy worthy of ths confidence of the people ot
Texas and it regards it as a duty to support him for renomlnatlon and
'fS re-election. . - : ' . '
The Post commends the governor's candidacy to the democrats .of
v J Texas not merely because he Is seeking a second term but because upon
his record he is entitled to it and because it believes the best Interests
ot the State will be served by retaining him In the executive's office.
