THE ELECTORAL" COLLEGE."

The Presidential election, so.
called, is over, but there is no
President yet elected. All the
people have done is to chose, by
states, the men who are 10 elect the
President. The voters ia each
state have chosen as many OF these
electors as that state has Represen-
tatlves aud Senators ia Congress.
The day of the real Presidential
election Is yet to come that is. the
day on which the electors chosen
in each state will meet IN that
stste's capital to formally ballot
for President and Vice President
of the United States. The day on
which this will be done Is the first
Wednesday in December, which
this year will be December 9th.
These electors who have been
chosen have the right to vote, in
each state, for whOmever they
shall desire tor President or Vice
President-theO only constitutional
Limitation being that only one Of
these sh all be citizen Of the state
whose electors are voting; that is,
the Preside mt and Vice President
may not both be citizens OF the
same state. This provision was
intended to guard against the i'm
agined danger of the larger states
attempting to usurp authority, or
obtain an undue influence in the
national government.
But, although the electors are
legally free to vote for whom they
please, they are in honor bound to
vote tor the candidate OF the party
which elected them. In the earlier
days of the republic, party nomina.
tons were not made ; but as soon
as the people divided into two
great hostile political camps, the
plan of making party nominations
for the two highest Offices was
adopted, and from that time to this
no elector has ever violated the
i'm piled pledge which he makes, IN
accepting the nomination for cleo
tor, to vote for his party's can
didates.
The electors for the whole Union
never meet as an organized body.
The entire machinery of the cleo.
tors is a device to have the Presi-
dent elected by the states, and not
by the people. The whole body is
called, for convenience, the "clec-
toral college," though the name is
unknown to the law, and is but n
popular designation, bestowed for
convenience. The electors from
each state meet and cast their
votes for the candidates Of ;heir
party. When this Is done, the
electors must sign three certificates
Of all the votes given by them. One
of these is forwarded by messenger
to the President Of the United
States Senate before the first
Wednesday of the following jan
uary. Another is sent by mail,
and the third is delivered TO the
judge of the district in which the
electors have assembled. On the
second Wednesday in the following
February, Congress meets and
canv asses the electoral votes and
makes Official declaration Of the
election OF President and Vice
President for the next four years.
The electoral votes on December
9TH next will be cast az follows:

GovERNon HILLS VETO.

Governor Hill has a second time
vetoed the Crosby high license bill.
In reporting this discouraging piece
Of news the prompting is to get an
gry at the New York executive, and
charge him with being i'm league
with the members Of the accursed
rum traffic. But, If we are to take
/ the arguments Of the prohibitionists
at their face value, this democratic
official has done a wise and cOnscrv-
ativc act Under high license and
other similar restrictions, the liquor
business thrivcs, the number of ar
rests increases and the consumption
of liquor enlarged. 1t lulls good easy
souls, too, into a dream Of false Sc
curity. They wish the world inn
proved without noisy ado, and sup
pose that high licenses imposed on
saloon keepers is half way step to
prohibition. This being the fact, it
Is little strange the terrible alarm
that seized the liquor dealersin New
York when the bill passed the state
assembly. Thousands Of industrious
citizens, ii was declared, would be
deprived Of their livelihood, and the
poor man be detrauded of his neces-
sary potation. If high license is
In the interest Of the liquor trades
why the frantic appeals for help that
have been put forth in the whisky
organs Of the empire state the last !
few weeks?
The prohibitionists may now felic-
itate themselves over the half loaf
being snatchcd from the moral re-
formers i'm New York, and then tell
us how much nearer they are, 10y the
rcactionary aud obstructive veto of
Gov. Hill, to the amendment to the
national constitution they are seek
ing Of congress.

I haze made an investigation to
see what amount of cotton BRENNAN
loses FROM this end of the county
every year. About 1900 bales! Is
not this amount of cotton and the
trade it would bring, where market
ed worth striving fort The bust
ness men of Brennan are as much
in the dark about the resources of
this end of the county as they are
about Red River county, or some
other distant point. II Brennan
ever intends doing anything towards
securing this trade, now is the time
to strike, for Navasotg is getting
shaky about her local trade East of
her on account of the Air Line
railroad. This being the case. she
will use herculean efforts to get a
better grip on this end of Washing
ton county. There is faint rumor
of a tramway from Navasota into
this end of the county. The bust
ness men of Navasota are noted for
thsir enterprise, and if they take
notion to build this tramway, rest
assured they will do it. If this is
accomplished the trade from this
end Of the county for BRENNAN is
gone forever with no possible hope
of ever recovering it. 1t seems
to outsiders that BRENNAN had
best use some cambined effort
to command her local trade before
branching out to build Arkansas Pass
and Brazos Valley railroads. Her
local trade thoroughly secured, she
would be better able to branch out
with new railroads to pastures
new" If sawmill men can build !
equip and successfully operate tram
ways, why cannot cities like Bren-
ham do the same. These roads are
now built and equipped with cars
and engines at comparatively small
cost. A good tramiway to this part
of the county would secure the trade
here to Brennan. VIII she build it,
Or will she sit quietly by and let
Navasota reap the harvest! Towns
lice Brennan are dependent on local
trade for their future prosperity. |
Railroads cut and slash aroud them,
and take their trade from distance
away. In short time I will give
you the figures, cost for building
md equipping tramway.

I see the BANNER urges our citi-

l see the BANNER urges our citi-
zens to thoroughly test the coming
industry, and states that there is no
doubt but that if the test proves a
success, sufficient home capital will
be secured to establish a factory.
Such seems to me to be the merest
nonsense. The only way to thor
oughly test the canning industry is
to establish a factory with the prop
er machinery, proper man at the
head and sufficient capital at its
back. Test it this way, and there
can be no doubt of its success.
Tests made by housewives is no evi-
denee of what a factory could do.
Canning factories are being operated
in various parts Of Texas successful
ly. At Tyler there are two facto-
ries that have been operated sue
cessfully for several years, and the
owners of these are so much encour
aged that they have had large addi-
tional orchards planted this season.
All surplus fruits find ready mar
ket at these factories. Last season
the standiag price at the cannery
was one dollar per bushel for peach
es. In addition to fruits all kinds
of vegetables can be canned, and
certainly no one will deny that veSe-
tables can be successfully grown
here. Tomatoes would be one of
the chief vegetables to can and these
can be grown here to perfection.
Let our thrifty German farmers
lesrn that they can find a ready
home market for their fruits and
vegetables, and you can rest assured
that they will grow all that can be
used. What advantage other towns
have over Brennan as site for
cannery 1 cannot see, unless it be
that Brennan citizens have less en-
terprise, less get-up about them
than the citizens of other towns. If
the citizens of Brennan seriously
contemplate starting canning fac
tory, the proper way, I think, would
be to send committee to the facto-
ries at Tyler or elsewhere, and as
certain what capital and machinery
will be required Major Douglass,
who is at the head of the principal
at Tyler, is thoroughly en-
terprising gentleman, and, 1 think,
would take pleasure in giving all the
desired.

ADULTERATION OF LIQUORS.
Report of the Commissioner of Agricul-
ture -InjuriOuS Ingredients in Beer.

Report of the Commissioner of Agricul.
ture-InjuriOus Ingredients in Beer.
WASHINGTON, January 8. The
Commissioner of Agriculture has
just issued the third of a series Of
reports on authorizations of food,
drinks and drugs. This report
treats of authorizations of fermented
alcoholic beverages, malt liquors,
wine ane cider. The chemist and
analyst by whom the report is
made concludes that beer is gem
erally adulterated with acids poi
sonous and injurious to the health.
OF thirty-three samples of beer
anal yzed six american beers con.
tanned salinylic acid, of which two
were bottle samples of Milwaukee
beer, two from S. Louis, one from
Alexandria, Va, and one from
Philadelph a. The use OF glucose
and sugar in malt authorizations is
condemned as injurious to health.
The preserving agents used by
brewers are still moro severely
condemned as means Of putting bad
beer on the market.
The above report shows the dam
gcrous ingredients used in beer
manufactured for shipment to places
distant from the brewery, Tb,,
Lone S;ar Brewing Company of
San Antonio find u ready sale IN
the State of Texas for all the beer
they make, and therefore do not
find it necessary to use anything
but strictly pure malt and hops. |
G. MlnkwItz is the BRENNAN agent /
for this popular beverage and will
pay a fair compensation to any
chemist who will find any dcleter-
GUS substance In it.
