Under the terms of the amendment
the legislature will not be empower-
ed to place any indebtedness upon
any community against its will, but
conservation and reclamation dis-
tricts will be created and the people
of each district will be left free to
decide for themselves whether they
will conserve and store up water
against seasons of drouth, or wheth-
er they will allow conditions to con-
tinue from which you and hundreds
of thousands of your fellow citizens
have been this year such great suf-
ferers and losers.
The adoption of the amendment is
in my judgement, of urgent and
most profound Importance to every
man, woman and child in Texas.
Please understand that I have no
land that can be benefited by the
amendment. I have no personal in-
terest to promote, no selfish ends to
subserve, and I write you from a
wholly impersonal and I trust, unsel-
fish standpoint.
You have seen your own and your
neighbors’ crops in the last sixty
days burn and parch and wither, and
have seen your hard and intelligent
labor go for naught, yet through
your fields and the fields of your
neighbors there has run to waste
since January 1 water enough to fur-
nish moisture adequate to insure
abundant crops on the same lands
for five years to come.
You know by experience that the
people in some parts of Texas may
look with absolute certainty to see
every few years a season of drouth,
such as we are now passing through,
and not infrequently see the same
conditions for two or more consecu-
tag when needed. / When we know
that It is absolutely certain that in

prise, It to the hope and purpose of

The advertisement carried by the
General Managers of Texas Rail-
roads contains information that the
public will find interesting, and a
careful perusal of the matters dis-
cussed will broaden the public mind

rates end the construction of new
lines. This letter to the people of
the state to fair and square and its
general tone is splendid.
In former times the railroads have
been shamefully imposed upon by an
uninformed public, and this state of
affairs was brought about mainly
through lack of proper co-operation
on the part of ofcials and employee.
Time was when an official was looked
upon as a very superior person by
the under employes, and that sort
of spirit of arrogance shown toward
employes engendered a state of se-
cret rebellion which resulted in a
demorlizing effect upon both the
success of the' railroads and the ac-
commodations of the public. The
fact that conditions are improving
is due to- education in these matters
of railroads and empkoyes, and the

who not only give the Nation its life
but nurture it as well. We recognise
the fact that a Nation never rises
higher than its homes. We know al-
so that it is a peculiarity of women's
natures to yearn for some recogni-
tion and approbation of work well
done, be it singing a song, painting
a picture, nursing a baby or making
bread, and we are firmly convinced
that the woman who nurses the baby
