df our fellow towns

a candidate for the
jratic nomination in the
primary, for the office o*

is hardly necessary for us
jmpt to inform our readers
the many excellent qualities

to whioh he aspires,
epotation is State-wide.
of the best blood in
County, his youth, young
and mature citizenship
open book to the people
this district. Following in
of his distinguish-
he turned in his youth
j law as his life work. He
le quit® a young man>
to the office of County
and for the past 15 or
beea a leader, on
tne Cass County Bar,
II East Texas. No
the bar stands high
er as a lawyer than be,
Mr. O'Neal served Oass County
in the 29th and 30th Legisla-
tures, making a reputation there
in as a legislator that will always
be a credit to him and an honor
to the people he represented.
Taking a stand for the rights of
the common people, he was in a
large measure responsible for
the changed system of taxation
which was an epoch in the his-
tory of the State and which lifted
the heavy burden, the East Tex-
as farmer carried, from his
shoulders to the place where it
properly belonged and thus
equalized throughout the State
the land taxes in proportion to
their market value. This will
go down in history alongside the
wonderful roforms, initiated and*
carried out by that tribune of the
people—the lamented James
Stephen Hogg. To enumerate,
however, all the important ser-
vices of Mr. O'Neal in the 29th
and 30th Legislatures would take
up more space than we have at
our command. Suffice it to say
that always was he found in the
forefront of the battle for the
rights of the people when thvi
oppressed hand of the "inter-
ests" sought special privilege
and undue advantage. The
crowning labor of Mr. O'Neal
came in the 30th Legislature
when as Chairman of the House
Appropriation Committee, he
had the unusual distinction of
passing his appropriation bill at
fhe regular session and thereby
avoiding carrying' it oyer to spe-
cial session, as is usually the
case, at an enormous expense to
the people The bill itself was
a model of economy, saving to
the tax payers large sums and
producing the lowest tax rate
the State has ever known. We
shall, from time to time have
more to say about his legislative
record as the campaign pro-
gresses. .
But.it is as a man and a citizen
that we especially love Hardy
O'Neal. Ever *in the forefront
when the interests of the country
needs him. S eve raj years ago
the saw mills, that for years-'had
supported this section of the
State, cutout, uuhed up their,
stakes and left. Business was
paralizad. Houses w.o.'e vacant
Cotton vtfas low. Everybody
was discou raged. Then it was
that t he people turned to Hardy
O'Neal. Laying a.^ide his p< r-
sonai business he toi?ned th
Oass Connty Truck Gr6wei>
Assocation. At the head of this
organization he turned the at-
tention of the farmers bo the
growing of potato s, fruit, etc,
ihe uatural ressources this land
abounds in. He inaugurated the
the system^ of having buyers
come here and pay ror the farm
ers product before it left the
country. From poverty the
county rushed to prosperity.
Of course a great many things
coincided to bring about this
result, but we say, without fear
of contradiction, that the loyal
interest and sheer ability that
Hardy O'Neul gave to this,
movement was the principal
cause of its success, anu this too
without pay and at a great
sacrifice of his own private
affairs. Again, last year, when
the people of Atlanta and Cass
county wanted to develop the
resources of our county and
create an industrial movement,
they formed an Industrial
League. As with common
tbouhgt ail eyes turned to Hardy
O'Neal for leadership. Again he
took up the reins and u:idir t ie
vigorous campaign for industria
success, ipauguraied by him onr
land bids fair fo come into its'
own.

By James Creelman
Three hundred years
old—the most magnifi-
cent city in the world
and the most magnifi-
cently misgoverned, is
what Mr. Creelman
says about the metrop-
olis of America in our
big illustrated feature
for next week.
It Is Not
Muckraking
It is a calm, convinc-
ing statement of condi-
tions which are posi-
tively- startling. The
cold-blooded truth is
told in a way that will
make some men shiver
as they read. Work of
pirates was coarse in
comparison with what
is happening now.
Read This and
Look About You
Take an hour off so netime to
go over your farm and pick out
the p inper acers" Then see to
t that these acres are not put in
regular farm crops next year
unless heavily manured and
specially treated- Unless this
can be done, either build them
up by mowing legumes or else
put them to make timber. The
farmers of the south ' cannot
afford to cultivate a million or
two acres of land every year
which they would-be richer by
never touching at all.
