Meridian County Actions Include Tax Election Order and Bonds
The Meridian court ordered a Bosque county election on February 9 to decide whether to take up eradication work as taxed. It declared the common school tax election results: nine votes for tax, zero against. Justice D. J. McAdams resigned. J. M. Coolidge appointed to the unexpired term. Several officers’ fees were approved and a plan to issue bonds for the Meridian Highway between Brasos bridge and McLennan line was considered, plus a separate vote to issue $100 per mile annually for maintenance after road improvement. The court adjourned January 19, with numerous claims listed for payment and a marriage license granted to M. Taylor and Emme Thompson among others. Local obituaries note the death of J. Moore in Meridian and community movements such as firms relocating.

Fragmented verse and weather notes mix in chaotic clipping
A garbled pastiche blends partisan denunciation of Russia with a Walt Mason cited verse about rebellion and a Weather Bureau rainfall report from University of Texas. It asserts national despotism, liberator talk, and hints at drought in Austin with 1017 as a driest year. The piece mixes quoted lines and historical weather data in a single, unreadable mosaic.
