Too many embezzlere attribute

The retirement of Senator Hanria
from the chairmanship of the re

largely tend to remove that t<entle

selection of Mr. Quay as his suc

Distinction for Ennis Boy.
Gen. R. Harvey, son of Mr. J. C.
Harvey of the Ennis country, has
recently been appointed assistant
attorney general for the Philippine
iovernment. George Harvey was
reared on a farm near Ennis. He
attended the public schools and the

Since the closing of the schools,
and the departure of so many bright
faces, Milterd seems to be dangling
in the dures* of dullness. Dr. H.
C. Evans and family are now in Rt.
Louit,. Hie family will spend the
summer there, but he will soon re
turn to this state to take up work
in the interest of the school.
The road tax election Saturday
excited but little interest here, there
being only votes cast—2"J for, and
Γιίί against. The sentiment against
the tax here was the outgrowth of
the gross mismanagement of funds
in this community last year. The
party, or parties, in charge of the
road wo, k here at that time simply
squandered the county's money,
and did nothing, comparatively.
When the matter «>f road building
has been put upon » rationally or
ganized basis, and into the hands of
competent parties, we will gladly
pay our mite. We want more roads
and better ones, but we prefer to
pay for the services of financiers
urU engineers, because we believe
good roads can be had no other way
at reasonable cost, if indeed at all.
The crop outlook offers encourage
ment, harvesting is the order of the
day. Wheat an J oats better than
expected.
Mrs. C. M. Weekly entertained

Black, tier mother, and Miss Sewell,

were served.
Rev. Mr. Davenport, a Cumber
land Presbyterian minister and for
merly a resident ol this county, but
now of Williamson county, is here
entertaining a call to the pastorate
of the C. P. church, at this place.
Hope he may become the shepherd
of the flock of his faith here.
in our last communication wt<
came out a little the worse for wear
hy reason of a change in one para
graph made by the editor, the prin
ter, the devil or some other smart
Alec. We said: "The rejent rains
had saturated the earth and a few
days of the thermal capacity of an
ordinary June would thaw into
smiles the puniest optimist on the
crop outlook," and it readthe "stal
wart pessimist. ' Look ont now.
