THEY WANT MORE.

Special to The Houston Post:
Austin. Texas, February There has
recently been much speculation in State
official and public circles as to why the
Arkansas Pass Ilarbor company asked
congress to extend their franchise three
years instead of one longer. when their
State franchises, worth millions, expire in
few months, and the depth OF water
required over the bar was virtually Sc
cured.
II now transpires that the company had
interior motives for this, ns admitted by
a prominent State official here TODAY.

pions. Finding 1t an easy Job TO get the
twenty feet required. they have secured
this extension from congress TO give them
time under II to apply TO the State legis-
laure. which does not meet for a year,
for further land subsidy, conditioned on
securing ten additional or thirty feet

Your correspondent attempted 10 inter-
view one OF the company's officials here

THE MIRROR MAZE.

Notwithstanding the inclemency of the
weather during the week the Attendance
at the Maze Is steadily increasing and
bids fair to assume greater proportions
az soon as the weather clears up IT Is
beyond n doubt one OF the finest exhibit
lions ever invented. The mirth provoking
incidents are so varied that volumes can
not describe them. The constant peais of
laughter OF tho fun loving initiates who
wend their way through tia labyrinth of
endless vstas, are only evidences OF th5ir
mishaps and adventures. No inii Vi !ual Is
embarrassed nor abashed, for they are ell
In It," and all mutually contribute to
tho jollity OF the occasion.

young man OF good common sense and OF
the Hottest integrity. His record us city

of official obligation. and he comes before
his constituents with that record as a

to have inherited the fine qualities and
popular characteristics of his father.
