We would rather have staid old
Massachusetts than boodling Ohio,
anyhow.
Tyler's stock of statesmen is not
yet exhausted. Cone Johnson lives
over there.
It does seem that Cleveland, Hill
and Tammany all united can carry
New York in an off year
Campbell could beat McKinley
reasoning and speaking but McKinley
beat him raising boodle.
The republic could not live under
the enormous officialism that govern-
ment ownership and management of
railroads would create.
People may not have the money to
pay doctors, teachers, preachers or
publishers but they can always find
enough to get into any kind of a show.
Being speaker of the House in
Congress is a bigger thing than being
governor of a republican state like
Ohio. Mills is still ahead of McKin-
ley.
What good comes from the buieaus
of labor, industry, agriculture and
commerce except to 1* eep the specu-
latoi s well posted at government ex

The Texas horse thieves don't fear
the consequences much because rais
ing sugar cane and making 'lasses is
about as easy as tilling corn and pick-
ing cotton.
The Enquirer don't wish to seem
impertinent but it would like to know
how many times a yrar the ra'lroad
commissioners are going to change
iheir commodity tariffs.

Ik the effects o1 stones and brick-

of Tyler geniuses from the political
chequer board, what will become ol
good and glorious Texas ? Don't
ask Webb Finley.
Democratic leaders must get in
closer touch with the masses, quell
factional dissensions in the south or
await inevitab'e defeat. Standing off
on golden stilts, issuing fiats and say-
ing "the people are fools" will not win
in the year 1892.
At last—even at the eleventh hour

YOUNG MAN GO TO AUSTIN.
It astonishes and mortifies an intel-
ligent Texan to read of the number of
our young men who go away to other
states to colleges and institutes. It
is now true beyond question that no
state institution has an abler faculty or
a more thorough course of study than
has the Texas University at Austin.
The young man who graduates from
the university of the state in which he
expects to live and win success, has
a great advantage over those who
graduate at a distance.
Their society connections, their ac-
quaintances and friendships formed
with different young men from differ-
ent parts of the state give them an in-
fluence and a strength they cannot
otherwise get. Every graduate of a
college or university knows this to be
true, and it is surprising that it is not
acted upon by the young men of
Ttxas. The (act that their fa'hers
were educated in Georgia, Virginia or
other old states will count nothing to
the advantages of the young man
who is to live and rise in Texas.

Judge Bowers of Dallas, has called
an election for "Floater" on Tuesday,
December 1, 1891. This is issued b>
Judge Bowers as returning officer—the
governor having neglected or refused
to do so
I11 the event the legislature is con
vened there will be momentous ques-
tions to be passed upon. Hon. W.
L Crawford has been asked to stand
lor election to the position vacated by
floatorial representative Crayton.
The Enquirer d>es not know that
Col. Crawford would accept the posi
tion but it hopes he will, and that he
will be elected. There are other men
his equal in 1 he district but none his
superior in qualification for that posi-
tion. He will at once be recogn zed
as a representative of the whole slate
and of all interests and will wield an
immense power for good.
The Enquirer hopes that Dallas
and Rockwall will give us Crawford.

Condensed from The 'irahani Leader:
JudgeS. W. Montgomery, of this
place, died last Wednesday night af-
ter a short illness. Judge Mongomer>
was one of tLe oldest and most r -
spectad citizens of Graham. He was
an early settler of this country, and
among all of his many acquain-
tances we don't think he had an ene-
my. He was a consistent member of
the Presbyterian chuich. He was
intered in the Oak Grove cemetery
Thursday.
The motion of counsel to reinstate
the case of Birdsley and Hays was
overruled. They now go to the pen.
They were convicted of attempting to
escape from the sheriff.
The Alliance gin has at last been
repaired and is now running on fu'.l

Dr. J.N. Peak has a new fine girl
baby at his home.
Graham citizens are kicking against
paying the extra school tax lately vo-
ted.

Graham needs a new or a better
jail.
