Generally.

Generally.
Since the announcement a few
weeks ago that Judge William Key
would be candidate for the office OF
associate justice of the civil court of
appeals from this district endorse
ments have been coming from all
sides. In addition to the action of
the Austin Bar association the attor-

the district, giving the resolutions
adopted by the Bar association and
again reiterating their former hearty
and undivided endorsement.

in the city is signed to the letter,
showing how generally and enthusi-
astically they desire his election. In
addition to the action of this county,
the attorneys of Bastrop, Hays and
Williamson counties have already
made assurances of their support and
it is further understood that Bexar

OTTAWA, ILL.,, May To-day both

two feet and all fears of disaster to
life or serious wreckage of residences
and business property have been
quieted. The water reached a point

valley may be practically said to be
ready to begin work cleaning up,

fore the rivers will be back in the

Try few applications of Chamber

bring relief, dampen piece of flannel

cured. SO cent bottles for sale by J. J..
