Like other goldbug sheets, the
Dallas News is now strongly adyo-
eating the retirement of all govern
ment legal tender paper money

certificates. This would contract
our money volume just one-third,

do not think the silver Senate will
allow such a thing.

VTRSTER PUSHED BY FRIENDS.
PERSONALLY HE is NON-COMMllIA h '->
REGARD TO HIS CANDIDACY FOR
GOVERNOR

Mavor Wurster is in the field as a candidate
for Governor The first intimation that he was
to be considered asprant for the place
now held by Governor Morton was given out oy
City Works Commissioner Theodore b. Willis In
an interview on Tuesday. Commissioner Wits
a. that time merely referred to the Mayor as a
possible candidate. He did not say definitely
that the Mayor was in the field
Yesterday afternoon however, Tax Collector
r. Ross Appleton and other close political friends
of the Mayor said unequivocay that Mayor
Wurster was a candidate They pointed to the
fact that Kings County has not for some time
been represented on the State ticket for the
office of Governor, and at the same time spoke OF
the Mayors qualifications for the office. Mayor
Wurster when seen yesterday afternoon spoke
of the matter jolngly. He said that he had
heard nothing about any mentioning of his
name" that might have been done, and invited
inspection of his hat with the remark that no
buzzing sound could be heard there. When
asked again last evening about the report he re-
fused to deny it, and repeated the statement
that he had not been consulted. He also said
that he understood that some of HIS friends had
started the movement in his behalf
Mayor Wurster says that he will not announce
himself as candidate. but Will first walt to hear
from his friends. He says that he thinks he
should be consulted. and until he Is he will say
nothing. Mr.. Appleton, however formally an
nounces that the Mayor VIII be pushed by his
administration associates, and intimated that
the decision to present Mayor Wurster's name
for the consideration OF the voters was reached
after mature elaboration.
1t has been pointed out that Mayor Wursters
candidacy for the Governorship would be likely
TO conflict with Park Commissioner Timothy l..
Woodruffs desire 10 become Lieutenant-Gover-
nor The best OF relations have always existed
between Mayor Wurster and Commissioner
Woodruff az Is shown by the fact that only
few months ago Mr.. Woodruff received the APP
pontment to his present position from the
Mayor. Commissioner Woodruff called on Mayor
Wurster at his home last evening. but II Is not
known whether he talked with the Mayor con-
corning their political aspirations
