TEXAS VOTES on AMENDMENTS
Very Light Vote PolIed Indicates the Gen.
erai Apathy.

St Louis, Aug. 3.-A special 10 the
Republic from Dallas, Texas, says:
The lightest vote ever cast at a gen
eral election in Texas was probably poll
ed today on the three constitutional
amendments. Reports received up 10 II
p. m. indicate that not 10 exceed one
eighth Of the voters in che state took the
time to go to the polls. This apathy was
especially pronounced throughout north
ern Texas.
The immigration amendment. and the
amendment 10 validate the public i'm
provement bonds of certain new counties
and which the stale bought with the per-
manent school fund to the amount Of
s., 0O0, 900, appear to have been carried.
The strongest OPPOSITION 10 the irrigation
amendment is said to have been found
in the vote Of eastern Texas The fate
Of all the amendments will probably turn
on the extent of the vote in western Tex
as, where the principal direct interest is
centered, as they are operative there.
