Austin, Tex., Jan. 10, 1910.
E. A. Calvin, former president
of the Farmers’ Union, the real
name of which is the “Texas Co-
. Operative and Educational As-
sociation, was in Austin during
the past weela looking up the
charter filed on Dec. tlrd, 1909.
Mr. Calvin declares that the or-
ganization of this new Farmers’
Union is part of a plan to entice
the farmers of Texas out of the
parent organization, but that it -gpe of the Comptroller’s Depart-
returned home after renting his
place near here.
State of Texas vs. Lester Tay-
lor; charged with murder, was
ree officers assigned by the called today, Jan. 10. The sheriff
— £as summoned one hundred men
as Special jurors' for this case.
Court overruled continuance and
cline to Judge.Brooks and argue
that his candidacy is certain to
be the winning one, but the great
majority of the people of this
city and vicinity are confidently
looking to Hon. O. B. Colquitt to
be the standard bearer of the
democratic.party at the next gen-
eral election.
It is claimed by those who are
close td him, that Colquitt has
one of two heavy broadsides to
turn loose and that his’remarks
will prove a surprise to'his op-
ponents and put all of them o.n
the defensive. In the meantime,
every art which is known is be-
ing used to persuade Mr. Col
quitt to resign his office as rail-
road commissioner of the State
of Texas, .but without avail. • In
the light of the past history of
Texas politics, the rule laid down
for themselves by Judge David-
son and Judge Brooks does not
impress him as having any mer-
it in, his case, and Mr. Colquitt
is willing to point to the late
Judge Reagen as one^-whose ex-
ample he is not' above following.
Chief Clerk Benjamin F. Tea-
Judge Dean has appointed Ben
H. McGinty of Navasota, J. T.,

W. H. Sullock of Io|a, to draw

One of the most thrilling sub-

No opposition to State Treas-

Ten months ago or just after
the Fourth of March, 1909, the.
papers of the country and the’
were clamorous for a
change of the date of inaugnra-
tion ©f the President of the
United States. Thousands of
people from all parts of the coun-
try had started ' to Washington
but the majority of them were in
snow drifts and packs on the
railroads. , Those who bad start-
ed from Annapolis, only thirty
griles distant, were twenty-fbur
hours late. New Yorkers who,
ordinarily, were only five hours
from Washington did not arrive
until Sfter the inauguration and
would not have come then if they
could have gotten home on a
shorter route. The preparation
for a magnificent pageant was a
flat failure but now the people of
the couptry have forgotten the
who Sacrificed hirnsjelf tu save his di^bomfort and everything per-
taining to the proverbially bliz-
zard-like Fourth of March, and
those who wager there will be no
change in the inauguration day
will be pretty sure winners.
However jve hope Bob Hemy
w»H get uis bill through. The
date ought to be changed.
