friends are out speaking In his behalf.
Senator Culberson wl)l not appear in

who voles in another district that he
is going to get a splendid vote ami
stands a good chance for election.
George W. Kiddle of Dallas has
dropped out of the race for the U. S.
senate, which was wise. There was a
straw rote on [xjxtal cards for the
stnatorship, sou ailing nt*wspa|x*r edl

uable "Information to Mr. Kiddle.
Congressman K..yl>urn was to t

graphed friends that lie will not f

CANDIDATE HUGHES.
We are not a rash ix*op1e. We- arc
not filled with a spirit -of militarism.
We are-not anxious to get Into trouble
but "If anybody thinks that the spirit
of agrvlcf and sacrifice Is lost and
that we hove not got the old senti-
ment of self-resiiect, he does not un-
derstand the United States.—From

Sherman’s public improvements of a
permanent nature will go right along.
The people of this city are progressive.
Texas Is raising a banner crop, and
it is of the diversified variety. The
state will be in position to feed the
soldier boys who are protecting the
border on the fat of the land.
* The Fourth of July has come and
gone, and from the first reports sent
out through the press dispatches, the
casualties will not go very high. The
bate apd sane Fourth really seems to
be a permanent fixture.

Attorney General Gregory seems to
be slated to succeed Charles Hughes
on the bench of the Supreme Court.
Ur. Gregory is a Texan and those who
know him unhesitatingly say he is in
©very way qualified for the place.
An organised movement that would
interest every renter farmer in Gray-

cows and in marketing \heir cream in
Sherman would be one of the best
movements that could be inaugurated.

The peace officers of the city and
county, and also the constable’s force,
.are working together to rid Sherman
and Denison and the other towns of all
questionable characters, and to that
end are making a warm fight on dlsor-

them. The officers should meet with
ttje hearty co operation of aft good
people in their endeavor to better con-

When the votes for United States
senator are recorded it is the opinion
of this scribe that a pro and an anti
will have tog-un the race off In Aug-
ust as per the Terrell election law.
Don't forget that the school bond
election is only about ten days off.
Every friend of education should get
his poll tax receipt ready and help to
put the proposition across. .Sherman
needs the additional school room and
equipment
There Is plenty of work for all, and
the men who liang around the corners
waiting for somebody else to make a
living for them should be cited to the
grain fields tfh3 the cotton patches.
And no dotibt tliey will be, for the of-
ficers are going to make it mighty un-
pleasant for the loafers In Gray.soil
county. j?
It Is noted In the dispatdhes that
factories and wholesale houses that at
the beginning of the European war laid
off many traveling salesuW, are put-
ting these men back to work and In
some Instances are' employing more
men. It is also stated in the dispatches
that the manufacturers are now em-
ploying more labor than ever before.
The picnic season is on and most
communities are now receiving n visit
from the men who desire to serve in
public capacity. Theresa a fine bunch
of men serving in Grayson county now
and another fine bunch offering for
office. Look them over, Mr. Voter, and
pick whom you consider the best men
and cast your vote accordingly. But
be sure and vote.

MR. WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN.
Ever since the memorable day when
Mr. William Jennings Bryan resigned
from President Wilson’s cabinet he
has been confounding his political en-
emies and some of his so-called polit-
ical friends. These gentlemen have
been viewing with alarm everything
done or said by the Nebraskan. They
have, in fact, been the readiest little
viewers on record within recent years.
Pretending to be convinced that Mr.
Bryan was engaged in a more or'less
secret campaign to wreck the demo-
(■ratio party, they have found time to
indulge In wild predictions calculated
to make a timid ,man’s hair stand
erect
And Mr, Bryan, neglecting to gratify
these detractors by replying to their
Insinuations and direct charges by
word of mouth, has gone steadily
ahead as a sterling democrat—the
foremost one living, he was pro
nounced at the St. Louts convention
of.hls party. Unperturbed by the
nasty slaps which bare been aimed
In his direction he Is proceeding to
do whatever be may as an aid to
democratic success, and among other
announcements of his policies, has
said that his services on the stump
are available if desired. ■*■
The man. democrat, or no democrat,
who falls to realize the figure which
Mr, Bryan cuts In the public and po-
litical existence of the United States
and as a dominant individual in his
own (tarty, Is a very unobservant one.
If democracy has contained within its
ranks for the past two decades a
more valuable soldier of the cause
than lie it would be Interesting to
know his Identity.—Oklahoma City

FREAKS OF JUSTICE.
In discussing yesterday one phase
of the Hadley trial In Muskogee,
okla.. the Post did not have at hand
the full details of the trial, or at least
of the two trials. Later developments
however, reveal some iiecultarltles
that are calculated to mature.her full
share of judicial farces.
Mrs. Hadley, It will lie remembered
confessed that she killed Sheriff
Giles, bjlt on her idea of Insanity tin-
jury returned a verdict of “Not guilty,
but Insane." ,
tin the same testimony, that is, Aft’s.
Hadley's confession, Hadley was found
guilty, and given a life term In the
penitentiary.
Yesterday, Mrs, Hartley was tried
ou a charge of attempting to break
Jail.' To this charge she pleaded
guilty add the Judge sentenced her to
fen years in the is-nitetitlary.
And now we are told that her bus
hand is going to ask that his life term
verdict Is- set aside on the ground
that- lie was convicted on the testl
mon.v of an Insane person.
Therefore, for killing a man, Mrs.
Hadley Is freed upon the ground of
insanity. For attempting to break
Juil. she gets a clear term of ten
years, and that insanity verdict Is
very likely to result lu getting her
huslmnd free.
It looks very much as If the jumble
Is going to result ultimately In freeing
both the |iartlct|uiirts In the wanton
killing of Sheriff Giles. Much might
bo said In criticism of Oklahoma jus-
tice with this ease as a text, hut such
things have happened so often in Tex-
as that no gixxl purpose would tie
served by holding Oklahoma to* scorn.
And Texas is no worse than other
states.
The iieople are discussing court re
forms, and the lawyers, too, are look-
ing to the. judicial fabric they have
erected. Everybody seems to be con-
vinced that something Is, wrong about
it, and that something must lie done
to correct Its defects, in order that
litigants may have theirControversies
adjusted without unnecessary delays
and outrageous expense.
What are they going to do about
the eourt house failures in the matter
of punishing criminals?
If murderers are to he freed upon
all sorts of flimsy pretexts, the struc-
ture. of American civilization Is not
going to endure forever. It is be-
coming Increasingly difficult to en-
foree-cHpilnal laws everywhere, es-
■fieclally the laws designed to prevent
and punish major crimes. Will not the
members of the bnr. who seem to lu*
looking Into the needs of the judicial
system, realize the danger that threat-
ens society with nn ever-rising murder
wave sweeping the country, and the
difficulty of punishing murderers be
coming greater year by year?
Can not anything 1m» done to
strengthen the safeguards of human
life against murder? Isn't life ns tin
ixirtant as property—-Houston Post,

CAMPBELL ON C OTTON.
The wealth of the south Is rooted
ill cotton. But the average cotton
farmer Is a ixxir man. He is a victim
of u marketing .system designed for
the speculator, not tile grower. Tom
Chiupbell. candidate for United States
senator, lias a plan to relieve this
situation. He says:
“The farmers are not siieeulators
and they will not house and hold
their crop for a fair market which
they can dictate if the risk is great
ami the element of chance becomes too
much of a factor: hence, the necessity
of minimizing the risk and fortify-
ing them as far as practicable against
loss, Loans ou cotton lu an .arbitrary
amount. or to the extent, say, of $'-‘f>
tier hale, at any rate of,interest how-
ever low, does not meet the ease, us
that dtx>s mot relieve the cotton pro-
ineer of the danger of having to sell
at a price below the east of produc-
tion which entails a loss he can not
stand. The average cost of produc-
tion is a safe basis of value for
loans, and facilities, for financing the
'•otton crop upon such a basis and n
low and attractive interest rate would
! believe, meet tlie situation.. To It
the duty of the agricultural depart-
ment at Washington to to ascertain
Promptly the average'cost of produc-
tion of the cotton crop every year,
and to certify the game to the secre-
tary of the treasury. Then provide
•hat the member banks of the Federal
Reserve System iimke loans direct
to the farmers, using this basis for
loans and at a rate of Interest to he

GOVERNOR OF TEXAS SHOULD
HAVE A LARGER SALARY.
Ttie United States Chamber of Com-
merce, authorized hy a 981 to GO ref-
erendum vole of Its constituent com-
mercial bodies in forty-three stutes,
urges an interstate commerce commis-
sion investigation of the whole sub-
ject of rullway wages and hours of
labor. A resolution directing such an
investigation will shortly lie intro-
duced In congress, In submitting tlie
proposal to its members the national
organization frankly faced the sltim
Ion that the demands made upon the
railways hy the four train service
unions might easily result In a nation
wide tie-up of railway freight service
and inflict uixai the country an enor-
mous calamity. There seems less
probability of such an outcome ffiWr
than when the demands were'“first
presented. Public opinion Is clear
that no grievance yet presented by the
men justly proceeding to any such
extremity. It lias been disclosed that
demands for so Jarge an Increase In
wages were approved by the men on
Several important systems hy very
narrow majorities. There are move-
ments among the men to recede from
itlie demands as somewhat unreason-
able. Itlius become fairly clear that
the reat demands are not for shorter
hours, but only for higher wages.
Unless the railways commit some
greut blunder it Is doubtful whether
any large volume of public sympathy,
could be with the men in a strike.
However, the situation is still 'diffi-
cult, though less menacing than It
It was. Governmental intervention
may become .imperative to conserve
the interests of the 96,000,000 people
who are neither railway owners x»or
railway employees. Therefore, It” is
well to liuve the government put In a.
position where Intervention will Is*
well informed and efficient, deliber-
ate and not hasty nor under Influence
of panic. The situation Is one which
tlie government should lie ready to
take hold of firmly, and effectively,
should the present negotiations result
in a refusal of arbitration by either
side with menace of a strike. There
must be no general railroad strike.
Governor Ferguson justifies his high
cost of living—ror ,‘ils cost of high
living—on his New York trip, of last
December, hy claiming that, he
saved the state a large sum hy his
business like management, of certain
business deals of the state while in
the North and East. To manage the
state's affairs Judiciously and econom-
ically Is but Ills duty; and wlmt d«x*s
it profit the state if he saves at the
spigot ami wastes at the hunghole?
Tlie tax-payers should not i*ay for
punch and chicken salad, cigarettes
and cheroots, oyster cocktails and
tips to waiters, and other like extrav-
agances. .
Because other governors may have
Indulged In these luxuries at tlie
state's expense, Is no valid reason
'Imt this extravagance should lx- pet-
notuated; and tlie sooner some plain,
solid, common sense mail is elected
governor, who will put a stop to all
this waste of public funds, the better
It will lie for the people and the state.
Tlie governor of the great state of
Texas, when he goes abroad, should
go as becomes the chief executive of
tin* largest state In the Union, and
his style of living should accord with
the dignity of his high otliee. If
$4,000 a year is not sufficient to en-
able him to do tills, increase his sal-
ary to $10,000. Then require him to
pay his expenses out of his salary and
not out of the public treasury. The
suggested larger salary would cost
tlie iieople less, under that policy,
than the smaller salary, under tlie

After completing a survey of the
state, the Texas Industrial Congress
estimates that 276.UK) acres will be
planted in peanuts this year, aud
adds to.this conservative estimate,
based ou an average yield of "^thirty
bushels to the acre, uu output of
8,210,000 bushels. In view of a threat-
ened curtailment of other luuuey
crops, this peanut prospect is particu-
larly gratifying, if the yield meas-
ures up to predictions and In all like-
lihood It will lie even greater, It should
lift the peanut hi a single season to a
level'with the most important crops
of Texas. The crop Is dependable
and the demand is steady. The varied
list's to which the (x'uuut is being put
and the nearness of hurne mills that
will utilize the product Insure ready
market and a profit-yielding value
l’eauut production and peanut profits
in this year should lu great measure
offset any losses that may lie sus-
tained lu other agricultural lines as a
result of Unfavorable conditions and
insect ravages. If tbal is done, they
should put diversification more
strongly upon its feet than ever be-
fore In tlie history of Texas.—Dallas
