President Wilson did right when he
ordered that Goorgo Ilurkitt the assis-
tant postmaster at Wlnnelka 111 bo
reinstated. Certainly a tnnn has a
right to say that ho thinks' the Presi-

. . BOOKER T. WASHINGTON.
Thu death of Booker T. Washington
takes the leading negro of tho world
from the land of tho living. In many
respects Washington waB a great man.
Dora during slavery times by his own
hard licks he became famous founding
the .lending .school for HCgtkJin tho
W4MTM He am touch lor uig rscp mm
in every public utterance ho gavo hlo
people sound Advice Ho will to miss
cd by the colored race everywhere.
WILL NOT BUN FOR GOVERNOR.
Hon. Robert Leo Warren of Kauf
man county announces that ho will not
run against Governor Ferguson. Tho
Reporter believes that Mr Warren has
made a wiso decision. We said tho
same thing when Judge Ramsey inado
tho raco against ox-Governor Colquitt'.
Judge Ramsoy in our opinion would
no' be Gorernor of Texas If he had
waited to run another two years but
he let hia friends over-persuade him.
Unless conditions change and chango
fast Governor Ferguson will be re
elected and wo cannot see any sense
In people who might some day have a
chance W be Governor getting in the
race Just ta 7m beat.
THE "ONDMAN."
Chicago policemen Have had a
month of trouble closing up some sa-
loons la certain districts of tho. city at
the proper hour. Arrests were made
ht that-tUti ho good. Finally the nan
who had been furnishing BOND for the
law breakers notified them that thero
would be no new Woods for them. The
territory Immediately went dry. It
will be that way In Abilene especially
wKh the negro population. If white
people quit paying fines lor negroes
and the lawyers oult defending them
when they knew them to be guAty
law breaking will play out provided
tbe proper kktd at k rock pile is estab-
lished. MRMAN TMmrriMEM.
