State who are without funds throughE

In ths Senate,
Senator Caldwell of Travis County ■
today presented a petition in the Sen* fl
ate signed by .residents of Burnet 4
County, urging the Senator to vote.fl
against any amendments to the pri«fl
mary election law which would have J
the effect of keeping the name of
James E. Ferguson, as a candidate frs
Governor, off the ballot.
A telegram was read from the Souths I
Western University at Georgetown fl
urging the passage of the ten-mile zone fl
law.
The Senate adopted without debat
the House concurrent resolution reffl
quiring State officials to furnish 4 fl
list of all al'en enemies that may bifl
employed in the departments or otherE
Institutions of the State.
The five regulatory measures passers
under suspension of the rules in th© l
House last afternoon were today sent I
to the Senate committee on criminal 1
jurisprudence. Two of these bills ar© I
the anti-bootlegging measures, the bill ]
prohibiting the sale of liquors to sol- l

bill.
Senator Buchanan of Scurny obd ]
tained consideration of h’s drouth ree I
lief bill which makes an appropriation i
of $2,000,000 for the relief of the drouth 2

win for them this year. Speed Mar-
tin, who also belongs to the Browns,
starred for Oakland last season and
was once given a trial by the White

grabbed Morris Rath, Salt Lake’s
hard hitting third baseman, but they
may not have him after all, aa Rath
le reported to have gone into the
army. Rath lead the Coast league
last season with an average at bat
of .841. George Maleel, who played
a great outfield game for San Fran-
ctio, has been claimed by the De-

his teammates, and Justin Fjtzgerald
of the same team will likely win a
regular place in the Philllee outfield.
