The letter from Grady Bill
came from Grady all right and
the grafters from Ryan know it
too They see the signs of - de-
feat starting them in the face
and their ludicrous efforts to
“hedge” are truly mirth provok-
ing It is hard to climb over on
the other side of the fence after
having come out so pronounced
on the side of that on which you
drop It is hard to retrace one’s
steps after having burned the
bridges but some persons are al-
ways trying it
The article from “Grady Bill”
seems to cut pretty deep into the
quick of some sensitive persons
in and about the temporary coun-
ty seat It will cut into the vote
of the aforesaid town too when
we have a vote on the location
for the permanent site for the
county capital
at the’ same tiine get acquaintec
witb the different styles anc ’
manner of sending of the vari-
ous'ojJerators alotig the line
We haveinqhargeof this de-
partment as instrttetor ''ex-
perienced telegraph - operaofc
who was engaged four or five
years as such on "the -Texas &
Pacific Ry
The law forbidding operators
from working more than nine
hours per day goes into effect
soon and as a result the number
and demand for telegraph oper-
ators by the railroad companies
the Western Union aind " Ppstal
Telegraph’ Companies 'wilf’be
greatly increased’ " - -
A scholarship in’ this’ depart
ment entitles the holder to daily
instruction in such preparatory
work as he may need as in
Spelling Grammar Pennman-
ship TyDewriting etc in addi-
dition to his ' regular course in
telegraphy
Operators get from $45 to $150
per month accordjngto skill of
operator and position filled -besides
this is the channel through
which most railroad officials have
passed '

The question naturally arises
will the Ryan Leader accuse Grady
Bill of falsifying when he says he
was bora in a cotton patch? It is
hard for some people to believe
any one else can tell the truth or
that any one outside of the gang
in Ryan has any rights

and chops- chile meat at Phipps
Market' Everything clean and
appetizing Phone 30 r 25tf
Grady Bill says the Ryan folks
scratched Stone because he is a
farmer and they have no use for
the fanners of the county That
is partly the reason all right
Our Traveling Representative
J E Nunn as a representa-
tive of The News will make a
thorough canvass of Jefferson
county soliciting subscriptions

thority to take orders for adver-
tising and collect from delinquent
