A CITIZEN
BeevilleMan Saya He Has No Am-
bition to go to the Legislature.
Hon. J. P. Pool has reeeived the
following leter from John II. Beas-
ley, of Beeville, in which he de-
clines to become a candidate for
the Legislature:
"I am in receipt of your com-
munication of the 6tli. inst., sign-
d by you and other prominent
citizens of Victoria County, ask-
ing me to become a candidate for
the Legislature from this Repre-
sentative District, and assuring
me of support at the primaries and
the polls.
' I have given the matter due
consideration, and beg to say that
I have no ambition to go to the
Legislature, and cannot believe,
that should T be elected to the po-
sition, that I could be of such serv-
ice to the people of the District as
would justify the sacrifice that I
would have to make in leaving
my home, my practice and my pri-
vate business which demand my
personal attention; and am, there-
fore, constrained to inform you
that I cannot become a candidate
for the Legislature.
"In this connection it may not
be amiss for me to say that I be-
lieve that, Texas needs a rest from
further legislation; that we arn a
too much governed people; that
we have too many laws; that over-
looking underlying fundamental
principles leads to hasty and in-
considerate legislation; that we
should be more jealous of our per-
sonal rights and be. ready to pro-
tect *<jaiast any further enact-
ment bmlgipg. curtailing or lim-
any respect our personal
rights and privileges as individu-
als ; and, at any rate, if we are to
be made good by law, it should
be done by dosing homeopathic-
ally, and the citizen given time to
digest the fact that claret at meals
on a Pullman car is under the ban
of the law. before further legisla-
tion is had along the same line
making it a crime to smoke on
public highways, or making it a
crime for one to kiss his wife on
Sunday.
'I appreciate the honor you do
me in asking me to become a can-
didate for the legislature, and I
sincerely thank you rind the other
gentlemen who signed the paper
for promise of support."

TO THE PUBLIC:
As previously announced, free
delivery will be inaugurated for
the city of Victoria tomorrow.
There will be three deliveries
throughout the business portion
and two deliveries throughout the
residence portion of the city.
We have endeavored to arrange a
satisfactory schedule for these de-
liveries but tlie same is subject to
change should they not prove to
be correct so as to make the best
service. Until this is ascertained
I will ask the public to exercise a i
little patience, and also to remem-
ber that the carriers are all new
men and may miss taking up col-
lections some times until they get
accustomed to the work.
These deliveries will not táke
place on Sundays and therefore
those having boxes will find them
convenient in obtaining mail on
Sundays and holidays as they will
avoid having to wait in line at cer-
Wn hours fixed for office deliver}-.
