the paper wen not approached relative
to Increasing the time of their subscrip-

It is true that the circulation was, in-

more closely than any paper in Texas.
It is the one paper universally read in
the southwestern part of the State and
goes into more people's homes outside ot
the State than any paper in Texas It
reaches all classes or people nnd Is the
paper read by every man and woman as

Foremost among these latter, in point of

The promoters stipulate for a delay of

agreed upon, the promoters are lree to

WICHITA FALLS. Tex., March 27.—
'ihe annual Wichita County Stock Show-
took place yesterday and was a great suc-
cess. About forty head of high-bred
lu rses and Jacks were on exhibition.

Puch a vote as this was never heard of
In a contest before. This fact of itself
is enough to give some idea of the ex-
panded influence of this paper.
VOTE STALLS DEPARTMENT.
The contest department was buried in
work from the closing day Tuesday until
late Saturday evening in an effort to get
the votes tabulated ready for publication
and in such a manner that it was im-
possible for an error to creep in. After
all the votes had been made a matter
of record and the results obtained
through the accuracy of an adding ma-
chine, several verifications were made
In an effort to guard against mistakes.
The fact is, if the contest management
had promised to publish the result sooner
than Sunday morning, it would have been
compelled to postpone publication on ac-
count of not being able to complete the
work sooner.
MANY DESIRE NEWS.
Saturday many of the contestants who
had played leading parts in the various
districts, and their friends, ton. called up
by phone in an effort to ascertain if
there was any news of tne contest to give
out. Of course, these did not get the in-
formation desired, for two reasons: First,
it had been decided not to let anyone
know who had won until the vote was
published, second, it was impossible to
know who had won until late Saturday
evening. When the winners had been
ascertained, this was guarded with care
until it came out in the paper Sunday
morning. No one outside of the depart-
ment knew who had won until late Sat-
urday night—and those, aside from the
management of the contest and the office
force in the department, were the printers
who set the type.
i NQ! IRIKS CAME SUNDAY.
Sunday, after the result was published,
many Inquiries came in by phone from
parts where it would l>e impossible to

Against Any Abuses.
There may be respect for the opinions [
of those who see danger In the Rockefel-
ler Foundation without sharing those
forebodings in any degree. The principal
objections are that a great fortune ls to
be Incorporated forever; that Its trustees
may not distribute It, but may permit It
to accumulate and become a menace to
the people; that In this wny the Standard
Oil Company expects to buy Immunity,
and that the vile practices of that monop-
oly will be continued In order to create
new fortunes to take the place of the one
that Is to be devoted to philanthropy.
In all these suggestions several Im-
portant facts are overlooked. The pro-
posed Incorporation provides, as ls usual
In such cases, that the charter may be
amended or repealed by Congress at any
time. This In Itself assures future control
and future extinction, If need be, of the
whole enterprise.
So far as the Standard Oil Company ls
concerned, this benevolence, whether
wlsoly or unwisely administered, will
have nothing to do with It. That combi-
nation will be amenable to law exactly as
it Is toduy. Old laws may be enforced
against It. New laws may be enacted to
meet propensities on Its part that are
not now disclosed.
The main thing is that an Immense for-
tune Is to be devoted to public ends, sub-
ject always to the control of the people
through Congress. There Is every reason
to believe that Americans of the future
will ho able to protect themselves from
the menace of a colossal charity at least
as successfully as this generation has
protected itself from the operations of a
gigantic monopoly.
In one wuv or another there have grown
up In this country accumulations of pri-
vate wealth of Incredible size. 'One of
theso chances to'bt In possession of a
man who. whatever his record as a
money-maker may be. Is not a spender

meeting. A majority of the worKers who
responded to the call had already re-
turned to their work, and others had
arranged to return tomorrow. The com-

today and recommended that the strike
be discontinued and financial support be

adopted and the committee discharged.
MINERS MUM AFTER MEETING

CINCINNATI, Ohio, March 27.—After

1 view to harmonizing differences between

Negotiations in East Stop.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.. March 27.—'Thora
was no change during the day in the rail-
road situation from that of last night,
when negotiations between the adjust-
ment board of the conductors and train-
men of the New York, New Haven &
Hartford Railroad Company and the of-
ficials of the company came to a sudden
end. The grand officers of the conduct-
ors' and trainmen's organizations were
in New York today eonsulting with other
officers of the National organization and
will return here tomorrow. It is under-
stood the company officers have been
given three days in which to make known
the course they intend to pursue.
Reconsideration.
A man was telling about an exciting
experience in Russia. His sleigh was
pursued over the frozen wastes by a
pack of at least a dozen famished wolvea.
He arose and shot the foremost one, an<l
the others stopped to devour it. But
they soon caught up with him and he
shot another, which was in turn de-
voured. This was repeated until the last
famished wolf was upon him with yearn-
ing jaws, when
"Say, partner." broke in one of the
listeners, "according to your reckoning
the last famished wolf must have had
the other 'leven inside of him."
"Well, come to think it over," said the
storyteller, "maybe he wasn't so darned
famished after all."—Everybody's Maga-
zine.
