Seattle, Wash., Feb. 0.—In th»
election here tomorrow the recall
will go "To the stiffest test it has had
since it was first adopted as a fea-

Austin, Tex., Feb. 6.—Representa-
tive Haney of €h»y county, who is
nt
his office. Charges of corruption in
ire
the police department and unrestrain-
ed vice evils were made the grounds
for the recall petition. Mayor Gill, ns
a candidate for re-election, is seek-
ing vindication at the hands of the
voters. His opponent is George W.
Dilling, who Is the candidate of the
Welfare League, representing the re-
form element. The campaign has
been one of intense bitterness. Mass
meetings have been held
almost nightly to protest
against the conditions alleg-
ed to exist in the city and min-
isters have appealed from their pul-
pits for the citizens to aid in the
fight against the social evil. One of
the most interesting features of the
contest is the fact that the votes of
the women of Seattle may decide the
issue. The women of this state were
granted the right of suffrage at the
last election and this is the first o<£
portunity afforded them to exercise
that right.
LIFE SAVED AT DEATH’S DOOR
“I never felt so near my grave,"
writes W. R. Patterson of Welling
ton, Tex., as when a frightful rougli
and lung trouble pulled me down to
100 pounds, in spite of doctor's
treatment for two year^. My father,
mothJil and two sisters died of con-
sumption and that I am alive today
is due solely to Dr. King's New
Discovery, which completely cured
nie. Now 1 weigh 1X7 pounds and
have been well and strong for years.”

chairman of the nouse committee on
education, has introduce# house bill
No. 344 providing for the organiza-
tion of summer normal institutes in
Texas for the selection of faculties
therefor and providing for tlie pre-
scribing of rules and regulations for
their government.
In discussing his hill Mr. Haney
said that the summer normal insti-
tute work in Texas should he regard
ed as an integral part of the public
school system of this state, because
a large per cent of the teachers of
Texas go to the summer normal in-
stitutes for both academic and pro-
fessional instruction. Mr. Haney said
that according to the report of the
state department of education for
last year, between 13,000 and 14,000
teachers attended the summer- nor-
m'a! institutes for 1910 and paid for
thei,r attendance the sum of $435,-
982, an amount. largely in excess of
the legislative appropriations for the
annual support of the University of
Texas and the Aglcultura! and Me-
chanical College combined.
"My hill provides for tlie teaching
of agriculture in the summer normal
institutes of Texas and I believe this
to be an important feature of tlie
hill, inasmuch as many of the teach-
ers of the state have never received
proper preparation for teaching this
subject and the statutes require the
Subject to be taught," he said, “in
fact, when you consider the impor-
tance of the work of the summer
normal institute in connection witli

ter. Four o’clock tomorrow afternoon
is the hour fixed for the ceremony,
which will be performed in St. Bar-
tholomew's church and will be follow-
ed by a large reception at the Fifth

the maintenance of a genuinely ef-
ficient public school system, you will
be convinced that the state should
at. present, or at least in the near
future, provide for state support ol
tlie summer normal institutes. My
bill will provide for a better organi-
zation of tlie summer normal insti-
tutes and for the selection of facul-
ties therefor by local committees, and
will tend to reduce the number of
such summer normal schools in ttfe
state, all of which will increase the
value of the serviee of these sum-
mer schools and make them greater
factors in improving the quality of
the teaching in the schools of Texas.
I Relieve the bill ought to be enacted
by the present legislature and 1 do
not expert any opposition to it.”

London, Feb. 6.—The royal stand-
aril and the union Jack of the old
England tugged and tore in the brisk
wind from the spires of the houses
of parliament this morning, a silent
token of the fact that the day desig-
nated for the reassembling of parlia-
ment had arrived. The usual
crowds began to assemble outside the
gates of Westminster palace yard at
an early hour, and by noon several
thousand people were massed about
ihe out'er entrances of the legisla-
tive chamber. The crowds which
lined the route from Buckingham
palace to Westminster, to view Jhe
royal procession, also were unusuauy
large. Guardsmen, assisted by hun-
dreds of police, kept the spectators
back, but they had lime to do.
In view of the stirring national
issues with which the siveech from
the throne was bound to deal with
the picturesque ceremony in the
House of Lords was never attended
witli more glamor and splendor^The
ceremony was in strict accordance
with precedent. Tlie procession to
tlie chamber was of tlie same charac-
ter as on similar occasions in the
past, and within was seeiii|the same
state pageantry, historic di*esses, and
revival of ancient forms. After
robing, King George and Queen Mary
entered the House of Ixinis and oc-
cupied tlieir thrones beneath a can-
opy, with the great officers of state
clustered aboilt them.
Directly the royal couple took their
places the King said, ‘ Pray be seat-
ed,” and then followed an interval
while Black ltod summoned mem-
bers of the House of Commons. Lord
lA)reburn, High Chancellor, then ap-
proached the throne, and on bended
knee handed his Majesty a copy of
the speech. The king put his cock-
ed hat on his head, and while seated
read the speech in a loud, clear tone,
amid intense silence. At the conclu-
sion of the speech the king rose, and,
giving his hand to the queen, de-
scended the throne, and tlie cere-
mony came to an end. Unusual haste
was shown by those present to
leave the precincts of the chamber,
as if anxious to discuss tlie effects of
the of flea 1 pronuneenient.
The present session of parliament
is expected to be one of the most
momentous in the modern history of
the United Kingdom. This expecta-
tion appears certain of realization if
the present program of the govern-
ment coalition is carried out and
that this will be done, or at any rate
will be attempted, there is full rea-
son to believe
Tlie government regards the result
of the late election as popular man-
date for it to proceed rigorously with
the policy adopted in the last par-
liament. It has, moreover, not only
a majority sufficient to enable it
to do so, but also a majority requir-
ing it to do so.
How fur the government will bo
able to get with its program is a
matter of much speculation. It is
hoped that all contentious measures,
if not all the business of the session,
will be disposed of before the coron-
ation, which is to take place the lat-
ter part of June. But to do that
will require an extraordinary expe-
dition of business. There will neces-
sarily be a debate on the address,
lasting two or three days. Immed-
iately thereafter the government in-
tends to introduce its bill for the
abolition of the veto power of the
Lords. In addition to this there are
several other important matters that
will require much time.
The manner in which the anti-
veto bill will be dealt with is already
a subject of keen, discussion. Before
the election It was declared by the
highest government authorities that
the bill must be passed letter per-
fect, without the slightest amend-
ment. That declaration served as
good campaign material, but whether
it will be strictly adhered to is doubt-
ful. It is regarded as more than
likely that a spirt of concession and
compromise will prevail.
But even if a compromise on the
anti-veto bill is promptly effected the
session is bound to be epoch making
in the history of Westminster. it
will almost certainly mark the pass-
ing away of purely hereditary priv-
ilege in British lawmaking, the re-
constitution of the upper chamber
either in actual composition or in
essential functions, and the read-
justment of relations between the
two 'louses.

Rehimring in Ruef Case.
San Francisco. Cal., Feb. 6.—The
case of Abraham Ruef, the foFTTer
political boss of San Francisco who
was sentenced to fourteen years In
the penitentiary for bribery of ^su-
pervisor, came up for rehearing to-
day in the state supreme court. Ruef
was convicted two years ago after a
trial that lasted nearly four months
and which was irinde sensational by
the attempt to assassinate Francis
J. Heney, the special prosecutor in
the case. Since his conviction every
twist and turn known to the law lias
been employed to save the former
political boss from prison. Recently
he has been enjoying his liberty un-
der $250,000 baii. The main conten-
tion in support of the present request
for a new trial is that the receiver
of a bribe is an accomplice and
equally guilty witli the _giver of
bribe money and that thus far BTs
testimony is inadmissible. Should this
contention be upheld by the supremo
court, in opposition to the opinion
expressed by „the appellate court,
many of the principal witnesses
against Ruef would be' disqualified
from testifying.
