THE DEMOCRATIC PLEDGE.
“I’d like to know just how you stood in poli-
” said a good friend to the Leader editor
“Last summer you simply lambast-
vemor Campbell at every opportunity,
urged us to vote against him, then in the 'Crf"Er6Tino raise vegetables in Or*
election you turned aroin^flfiTT'urged
to vote for Campbell."
*t,“* WPTrT’mTi'iiiiiiiili nl after all. In
t^^pftmaries it was democrat against deino-
and we wanted to see Campbell’s adminis-
rebuked. And there were 125,000 other
srs in Texas that felt just as we did. But
apbell was nominated and when we went in-
to the primaries we pledged ourselves to vote
I for the nominee, and, look at it as you will, the
man who voted in the primary and then failed
in the general election to vote for the nominee,
violated that pledge.
“That sort of pledge takes away a man’s
independence, ’’ say yon.
Granted.
But we knew that when assumed the
pledge and having once assumed it. we ought to
have stood by it.
We take issue with those who profess to set*
inconsistency in our polities because we sup-
t«. pealed the nominee of the primaries.
This is not the first time we have had to
f swallow a bitter pill of that kind, but, really,
Jpb» the doctor’s prescription, we felt better
i after taking It.
!§' As long as the present primary election law
mi in force and a pledge is demanded, there can
he no auch thing as independence for the voter
who takes part in the primary election—and
unless be does take part in the primary election
in Texas, he can have no part in the election
of her officials.
No, friend, until we break loose from
y ties altogether, we insist that our politics
are of the correct weight and fineness.

A boy is entitled to his father’s confidence;
it ia his right to know his father’s nature and
experiences; only thus can he lie fully heir to
all that parenthood ean and should liestow. It
is for the child’it good that we l>e a parent to
him, first and last, not a master, nor yet a hero.
As to reverence, I doubt whether a child rever-
ences his parents after he is ten years old. He
apes their faults, and secretly judges them
often unjustly. Our neighbor Grayson has al
ways exacted a sort of homage from his family.
He ia out for re-election and yesterday he made
a speech before the Sunday school, which some-
body was extolling when his son Harry said
with a sneering laugh: “Oh, the old man
knows how to pull the wool over their eves!”
I’d rather have my children know me as.I am
than think of me as a hypocrite. Children
know yon, too, pretty well. They have keen
;ht these days; they are far quicker at mind
ag than the children were generations
hack. They know more about you than you
dream they know; but not being wise enough
to give the proper weight to causes and mo-
tives, they are apt to misjudge you. So it is
best to be open with them. Frankness on your
part will lead to confidence on theirs.— Mary E.
Bryan, in Unde Remus’s—The Home Magazine
for November.

From the garden of Mr. H. P. Webb came to
the Leaderjedkor’s desk last Saturday a bunch
of fresh vegetlhldi-including turnips, cabbage,
lettuce, mustard, okra, beans and onions. Mr.
Webb is employed at one of the local mills,
but he manages to do a little work in his gar-
den io the morning before breakfast and a lit-
tle in the evening—and it doesn’t _jequ;Ftf £
ange. The little garden plot is a valuable ad-
junct to every man’s home and helps to ma-
terially lessen the household expenses. *
Mr. Bryan showed the true Christian spirit
yesterday morning when he conducted family
prayers as usual. In his place, most of us
would at least have gone out and kicked the
dog—Lake Charles American.
Brvan is a man of lofty ideals and has too
broad a view of life to indulge in vain repin-
ings or outbursts of feeling over his defeat.
Some men, you know, are greater and grander
in defeat than others are in victory and Bryan
is one of these.
“Always tell the truth,” says a writer in an
exchange. Nix on that advice. If we were to

“As wise as a serpent and as harmless as a
dove,” is Bud Weiser. You don’t catch him
taking any advice emanating from the foolish
house.
' Tripping as merrily and joyously as a maid-
en of fifteen, in a lilting strain, John Reese of
the Atlanta Georgian gives the good counsel:
“The political pot has finished its boiling,
the battle of the ballots has been fought, and
the ship of state has been intrusted to a new
pilot. Let us now cease to view with alarm,
and do some pointing with pride.”
George Bailey of the Houston Post, has a
very forgiving and conciliatory spirit, but there
is a limit and he has reached it. He says:
“While we do not believe in nursing grudges,
there are some injuries that can not lie forgiven.
We do not know that we Bhall ever speak to
Missouri again.”
Paper can be made of corn stalks, cotton
stalks and okra stalks, but Texas is making
paper of none of them. In the meantime Or-
ange goes on grinding yellow pine waste into
palter all by its lonesome. Orange should bring
a full display to the fair to show what South-
east Texas ean do.—Beaumont Enterprise.
Orange expects to be there in full force and
to show you something in the way of paper and
pulp that should open the eyes of the people.
“Mayor-elect James G. Woodward saw the
‘animals’ Thursday night—in other words, the
new mayor annexed another jag,” is the way
the Atlanta Georgian tells the story. If his
election has that effect, what will follow the in-
stallation of the mayor!
“What do you think of a man who will, at
the table, tell the Lord he is thankful for the
things before* him, hut as wjon as he says ‘amen ’

queries the Caldwell ledger. We have a faint
suspicion that he and consistency are entire
strangers and that he is also somewhat of a liar.
Ford is requested to readjust his system and
get hack into harness. We prefer his editorial
dope to the stuff 1m* cuts out of other papers.

Thank you. We are on the job again and

An exchange tells of a cat born with two
faces. We don't know about this cat having
two faces, but we’ll swear there are some peo-
ple in this community that are two-faced.
We<^ suppose some of the Orange people who
go to the Houston carnival will do some shop-
ping in that city. Don’t forget to tell a cer-
tain firm that you saw their ad in the Leader.

season this year, to provide the mon-

that a special tan should Iw levied

keepers are up In arms against this
proposal, which by the way 1« not

of taxing hotel guueta and monthly
tenants. They have hold a meeting
and have informed the city fathers
that they will not be reelected if a

Labor has Just passed a resolution de-
claring that workmen possess no
country snd do not understand the
meaning of the word patriotism. Tho
resolution sets forth that It Is the
doty of young men while performing
military service not to use their arms
against their brothers, the workers,
io a conflict between capital and la-
bor. Workers have not any country,
Is the formula of the Internationale,
and. therefore, all war .Ia simply an
attack upon the working class. From
the International point of view, the
workers should reply to a declaration
of war by a general strike. Many of
the trade unions are opposed to the
resolution and ft (nay result In a large
number of them leaving the Federa-
tion of Labor.

Turning from tragedy to comedy a
little play with a humorous note In it
was performed on Boulevard des Ilal
lens the other afternoon. The play-
ers wem a very beautiful actress,
from the opera and a clerk. The ac-
tress was going to a rehearsal. The
elegtyicc of her attire, not forgetting
her huge hat. attracted the attention
of everyone. A clerk crossed tho
street and instead of admiring the ar-
tiste silently and at a distance, he
accosted her and began to criticise
her elothea This was Intended os
a Joke, but the actress took It ether
wise and seised the would he Joker
by the collar and shook him like a
terrier would a rat until bis clothes
were torn. A crowd gathered, a pi ice
man at last can*'- and the two were
taken before a potter commissary The
clerk Immediately admitted he wao
In the wrung and apologised to the
art re as It would have been within
his right tu make a complaint against
her. Not only dtd he refuse to da
this, but he also declined the money
the actress offered him In return for
his damaged clothing.
••No. Mademoiselle," he declared. "I
will accept no money, but If you will
kindly get ate two seats for the opera
you mov consider the matter settled."
