I". J.is announcement Captain Kennedy
e lares that he had always been an ad-

eu erase and surface drainage. Aa
ih&rman of the street and bridge depart-
mer.t for the past few years he says he
is C.orougl. familiar with the need of
the city In that direction.
lie also believes that some cltanges In
the existing charter of this city should

be made bv a committee of citizens.
In discussing his candlda.-v. Captain
Kennedy aald.
1 am a candidate for re-election sub-
vert to he JW Ision of ti e Democratic
primaries
1 have always believed In betterment
of streets sewerage and surface drain-
age etc. but up to the lat act of the
Legislature which created the front foot
plan every Improvement had to be paid
for out of the general fund and when
the police fire sewers engineering
schools and other department were paid
out of the getieral fund the amount left
for th. street and brkige department was
not sufficient for the upkeep of our rapid-
ly growing city It has been stated that
Dallas has outgrown us In street Improve
m.nrs. but Dallas has been working under
the front foot plan for over six years as
1 understand It Fort Worth and Kl 1'a.o
have also had the front foot plan for sev-
eral years. 1 nder those circumstances no
lomparlson should be made.
I am positive that no man nor any set
of men could do Itetter w;th the amount
appropriated for the streets and bridges:
and another consideration to be looked at
those North Teias cities are built on
rolllnR ground while ours is flat and hard
to drain therefore hard on our mud
streets. I. having been chairman of the
street and bridge detriment for several
years. crt.unly know the needs for streets
and drainage.
1 bel!ee that some changes In the char-
ter ought to be made and 1 tlieve those
changes should be made by a committee
of citliens and 1 will be guided by their
decision.

glary. Hart was captured after midnight

THOUSANDS FLED
BEFORE ERUPTION
Volcano of Colima Broke Forth Vio-
lently Probably Some loss of
Life in Remote Sections.
(Aisocmtii Prtu Rtfiori.)
GUADALAJARA. Mex.. January 21
The volcano of Colima broke in violent
eruption last night. Thousands of peo-
ple are fleeing from the villages and
ranches in the vicinity. It Is believed
there has been some loss of life in the
remoter settlements.
After a lull of several hours Colima
again showed great activity. The flow
of lava wa shot great but vast quanti-
ties of ashes and sand were erupted.
Dispatches from Saltlllo 54 miles from
Colima say ashes are falling there.
Hundreds of refugees arrived here this
morning on a train composed of box oars
which had been picked up on a siding
at a nearby village. The fle.lng people
bad found It necessary to shovel away a
quantity of volcanic sand before they
were able to move the cars and for many
miles along the way here the train had
to be stopped frequently to clear the traok
of debris.
V.ry little lava was ejeoted from the
crater which however omitted vast quan-
tities of smoke and sand while suffocat-
ing gases formed an unusual feature of
the eruption.
