TIME IS THK TEST.
The Testimony of McKinney People
Stand* the Teat.
The test of time is what tells the
tale. The public soon And out when
misrepresentations are made, and
merit alone will stand the test of
time.
McKinney people appreciate merit,
and many mouths ago local citizens
publicly endorsed Doan’s Kidney
Pills; they do ao still. Would a cit-
izen make this statement which fol-
lows unless convinced that the arti-
cle was Just as represented? A cure
that lasts is the kind that every suf-
ferer from kidney ills is looking for.
J. E. Hlnman, 38 N. Coleman St.,
McKinney, Texas, says; "I do not
hesitate to recommend Doan’s Kid-
ney Pills as 1 know they are a good
preparation. One of my sons was
troubled for some time by a distress-
ing weakness of the kidneys and
bladder The secretions were alto-
gether too frequent In action and
otherwise disordered. Seeing Doan’s
Kidney Pills advertised, I procured
a box from Smith Bros, drug store
and had my son use them. They soon
corrected the difficulty. (State-
ment given December 30, 1904.)
Confirmed Proof.
On April 18th, 1908, Mr. Hlnman
said; “I gladly endorse Doan’s
Kidney Pills again, knowing that
they ar« worthy of it. Since they
cured my boy in 1904, they have
been used in my family on several
occasions and always with good re-
sults.”
For sale by all dealers. Price 50
cents. Foster-Mllburn Co., Buf-
falo. New York, sole agents for the

and take no other.

FROM AUSTIN
Austin, Tex., Feb. II.— (Special
Correspondence)—The House has re-
fused to submit the cause of prohi-
bition by the ’nary vote of four
votes, to the people of this state,
thus thwarting tbs will of the people
of Texas, ss expressed at the ballot
box. There will be twelve votes
against it in the 8enate, thus killing
it. This is wrong, and we hope to
see the will of the people some day
succeed in this great cause.
Hon. Wallace Hughston, formerly
county attorney of Collin county, was
here a few days the past week. He
has many friends In Texas’ capital
who were pleased to see him.
W. B. Carnes, secretary of the Mc-
Kinney Commercial Club. McCarty
Moore, one of McKinney's many
doers, and R. Lawrence Waddill, an
enterprising McKinney capitalist,
are here In the Interest of the estab-
lishment of a branch of the A. A M.
College at McKinney. They are
pleasant, congenial gentlemen, and
are mixing and mingling with our
legislators. They are being well re-
ceived and are meeting with much
success. T. W. P.

The country editor sat at his desk
His hair waa fast turning gray,
He'd endeavored to please bis
subscribers all,
And was worried both night and day.
And now said he I’ll turn a new leaf
And run this old sheet as I please.
Just let these kickers come
monkeying here
And I’ll show ’em that I’m the
cheese.
First old Deacon Brown came
stumping in
With his sanctimonious look,
“If ye’re goln ter publish ther
baseball news
Jest take my name off o’ yer book.”
And ye editor rose In his new found
strength
And seized Deacon Brown by the ear.
He yanked him about with a turlous
shout
“I’ll show you who's running things
here.”
Then Sporty came in and indignantly
said
'Why didn’t ye publish thot prize-
fight last week!”
The editor rose and pushed back his
sleeves
Then pasted hltn one on the cheek.
'I’ll sKow you how it was yelled
he
Fltzjabber plunked Corkett full sore
And finally landed him under the
ropes
Like I pitch you out at this door."
Then Grouch the rich merchant
came sneaking in
To kick for some free advertising
“Been three weeks now since yon
gave me a boost"
And the effect of his kick was
surprising.
For the editor caught him and
turned him about
“O well I will boost yon soma more*'
And making good use of his number
elevens
He boosted old Gronch through the
door.
Then opened the sanctum door
again
And In stepped a poetess weird
And ancient maiden with corkscrew
curls
Who straight for the editor steered.
Said she “Pvt a high class poena
here
Tis the reason I never wed."
'Well I’ll publish It with the title
changed . - 1
To “The lack Of a chance" he said.
O ae this Bdftfir didn’t gat kttlad .
“Our representatives In both
houses of the 31st Legislature are all
making good," remarked Mr. W. B.
Carnes, who has Just returned from
Austin, when seen by a reporter this
morning. “Senator Tom W. Perkins
has the confidence of his colleagues
in the Senate, and all officers and
members of both bouses, and state
officials. He is a' good mixer, a ready
speaker, and has the happy faculty
of making friends of all whom he
meets. I heard him make two
speeches while there, and noticed
that marked attention was given him.
Be: Ides that, he has voted right on
every moral question that has come
up for consideration. Even those
who do not agree with him give him
credit for being honest and upright.
Senator Perkins told me that he had
received many letters from his con-
stituents, advising him on some
questions of importance affecting
moral Hsues, and he said to me,
‘You can toll the people at home that
I shall support, with all my might,
all questions of that character, first
because they are my own views, and
second bemuse my people want me
to.’ He raid. ‘I am going to repre-
sent my people in the way i think
they desire, and it is my own pleas-
ure to do no.’ ”
Continuing Mr. Carnes said; “And
our representatives, Messrs. Bowles
and Spradley, are doing exactly the
same thing. They are both making
good, and hove the good will and re-
spect of not only the House, but all
others as well. I made it a point, to
make some Inquiries, and was inva-
riably told that Representatives
Bowles and Spradley were all right.
They vote right, talk right and have
the good of their constituents at
heart. I heard so many nice things
about Collin’s representatives that I
felt proud to own that I was from
Collin.
“If we do not get that branch of
A. & M. College for Collin county,
it will not be the fault of Perkins,
Bowles and Spradley, for tbey are
working hard for It. and my honest
opinion Is that we will get it.”
