The Telegram publishes herewith
the first estimates of this year bear-
ing on the cotton crop in prospects
at several of the more important
points along the Santa Fes San An-
gelo branch, as follows:
At Ballinger. from 50,000 to 75,-
»«« bale*.
At Coleman, from 30,900 to 50,-
•60 bale*
At Santa Anna, trom 30,00 to 35,-
H0 bales.
At Brown wood, from TiOOO to 100,-
H0 balea
At Lampasas, from 20,090 to 25,-
H9 bales.
These figures are based on the es-
timates now made on the number of
balea which will be moved from tha
places named to market during the
1MR-09 season. The estimates for
Ban Angelo and other sections along
the Angelo branch are not yet fully
Mmpleted. it is stated; but will be
proportionately similar to the figures
above quoted.

fader the direction of Mr. Avery
Parsons and Mr. Ed Garlick, both
prominent Santa Fe men in thia city,
subscriptions are being solicited and
raeelved in gratifying amounts, to the
(allowing:
We, the undersigned citixens and
Democrats of the City of Temple, Bell
county, Texas being in full sympathy
aad accord with the idea of that
■atchleas. and peerle%s statesman,
the Hon. William Jennings Bryan as
ta the manner and method by which
the ligitimate and proper expenses
at the National Campaign should be

at Mr. Bryaa, the subscriptions are

he shaves, combs his hair, puts oa his
collar, his necktie and his bat and
then discovers that he has omitted his

Another Indiana poet is in the lime-
light for rhyming "p<fems" with
"homes." This is excusable, however,
on the ground that the poet knows
very little about home.
It is really wonderful what a lot
of energy a man will work off, tramp-
ing through the anow for miles, get-
ting his feet wet and going hungry,
and all to shoot (at) one poor, lonely,
homesick cotton-tail that has dared
to venture out of his bailiwick for a
dinner of twigs.

Wisconsin editor, "is peace and mutual

FIRST PUBLISHED III COUNTY
Incorporates Also the Official Ballot
for Vote, For aad Agmiut ia
Liquor Question.
Tbe Telegram presents this morn-
ing to its readers and the public the
flrat published detailed ballot for the
primaries to be held next Saturday.
What Is published Is the official tick-
et Just ss printed in the Temple
Times shop for use by the voters In
this connty on the twenty-fifth. In-
corporated in the ballot are all the
candidates for State, District, County
and Freclnct offices, including the
forms prescribed by the State Execu-'
live Committee for ballottlng on the
State liquor question which has been
projected as an issue in State Demo-
cratic politics.
The Telegram Is glad, not only to
be the first to present in news col-
umns to the public the official ballot,
but to place thia information In their
hands. There are many qualified
voters who, up to the present time,
have been necessarily unfamiliar
with the official ballot (and the is-
sues mentioned) since even their cas-
ual acquaintance cannot extend to
all of the various State and county
candidates for office, and, therefore,
they have been to some extent In
the dark relating to how their votes
In many respects shall be cast. What
we publish herewith presents In offi-
cial and concrete form the ticket.and
in ample time preceding the primar-
ies for it to be carefully studied at
leisure moments, so that when the
ballot box is approached, the ticket
may be in telligently and quickly
prepared therefor.
Extra copies of this issue are on
sale at Gerald's and this office.
In this connection. It is hardly nec-
essary to comment on the enterprise
on the part of the Telegram, of which
this published matter, preceding any
other in the county, indicates in fur-
ther proof. It speaks for itself in that
respect.

The sanitary committee, city attor

gaged yesterday taking care of the
numerous complaints which have
been filed against residents and prop-
erty owners, charging unsatisfactory
conditions of their various premises.
It is stated that the parties complain-
ed against have been often warn-
ed in this matter to "clean up" or
suffer the penalties prescribed by
the charter ordinance governing, and
that the persistent indifference with
which the previous nottcea have been
met has resulted hi the complaints
being filed.
It Is likely that the trial of the
cases will begin this morning in the
corporation court which wll continue
to grind until all have been dlspoaed

strange couple wend their way until
they reach a cabin—her home. A
grluled old man of unkempt and
dissolute appearance, half crated
from liquor, reela In and falla upon
the floor. The child aaslsts him to his
feet. He staggers and falla again,
this time In the throes of death. The
school maatar bends over him. The
dying man points to his child and
bids the teacher care for her. The
daughter cllnga to the Inanimate fig-
ure, refusing to be consoled. The
master finally leada her away, and
they start In the direction of the vlt-
