SOME NEW LAWS
OF Local Importance Recently Gone
Into Effect

Of Local Importance Recently Gone
Into Effect.
Among the most important of these
laws is one requiring all express COM
panies doing business in the state to
main tain a general Office at some point
in the state. Another law is prohi b.
itory sOf pistol carrying fixing the
penalty at from S25 to 5000. which
brings the matter under the supervis-
ion of the justice courts and gives
them a strong incentive to pull to:
gether.
Another very important law provides
that no state employe or superinten.
dent of any state institution shall con-
tract any deficiency without filing the
full estimate of said deficiency with
the governor at least thirty days b.
fore making it.
Another Important law provides for
the establishment of a state dental
board which seeks to control the prac-
tice of dentistry in Texas.
Another important law provides that
any bank president, cashier or other
official who receives money on deposit
when he knows that the bank is in q
failing condition shall be guilty OF
felony and be punished by imprison
| ment in the penitentiary for q term not
exceeding ten years.
AuOGuoT lutOTGdut l6W pIOVlu'S Lud
| the voluntary sale of a homestead shall
be exempt from punishment or forced
sals for six months.
Another very important law is the
labor lien law which caused so much
| rowing in the legislature and which is
now operative, projecting every class
| of employee.
About the most far reaching law in
| the wave of moral reform is the one
prohi oiting the keepers of pool rooms
| and billiard halls from permitting
| minors to loaf in or around about their
place of business. The law is aimed to
not only keep minors from playing
| these games bat from seeing them
played. In other words it makes the
keeper of pool or billiard hall keep
all minors out of their places Of busl-
ness. Any violation of this law will
be punished by fine of not more than
$500.
Another bill of considerable import
| ance is the one providing for state
plum bling board which will regulate or
at least seek TO regulate those who fol-
low the plumbing business in Texas
San Antonio Light.

The Lone Star State is one of d.
versitied resources. AS the Beeville
"Bee" says, The petroleum wells al
Corsicana are equal 10 any IN Pennsy4-
vanla. Texas now digs out of The
ground many of its valuable treasurers,
including iron, Coal, silver and gold.
Its fisheries rival those of Maryland
and its fruits those of CalifOI MIA. 1t

oats, barley, rye, rice, sugar and hides

Union.'

upon the hlOndlke river.
We thirsted for a glass of beer,
And shook with many shiver?
l oft since then have wondered why
For gold in natures culver,
She did not have a wedge of pie
Upon the Kiondike river.
Our boat kept measure with it's oar,
Till one September morning
The river froze from shore to shore
Without a minutes warning,
And cut our commissary so,
We didn't have silver
or anything TO eat but snow
Upon the KlOndike river.
We'd dug four tons of gold a week,
And piled it all around US.
Into glitteriDg yellow peak,
just Is the winter downed us;
md when the summer came once more,
Although is seemed it never
Would come again, we were dead sore
Upon the Klondike river.
For not speck of dust had we,
Of all we had collected,
Because, by gravy, don't you see
Twas not as we expected,
For grub was needed right along,
And stuff to stop shiver
And ''pou nd for pound" the suffers
sung
Upon the Klondike river.
So when the warm had killed the cold
And winter time was over,
We'd eaten all our pile of gold,
And still were not in clover,
Because We owed board bill yet,
Which with our best endeavOr,
Will wipe the wad this year we'll get
Upon the Klondike river.
The KlOndike gold excitement has
had good effect in all parts of the
world where gold is found. Even in
Mexico where prOspectOrs have been
in the habit of walking over a gold
mine to find silver, the tide has chang
ed and old silver miners are now seeking
gold. There is gold in all sections
around Ell PasO ana there is no doubt
now but that silver mining Ill be laid
as de and miners will go after the more
precious metal. All this section needs
to develOpe The gold properties is stamp
mills. Nearly all the gold found is
free milling and the per cent is much
greater wnen milled than when smelt-
ed.
The suggested organizing of a COM
mercial club in Ell Paso is of great i'm
pOrtaDce and the business men of this
city should not fail to take hold of the
project. There is nothing like organ
lza5lon in matters commercial or
otherwise. An effort to get the COM
mercial people together t5morrow
night for organization should be at
tended by every man in town who has
the future interest OF Ell Paso at heart.
The city is now growing and proper
ing and by the organization of a COM
mercial club many matters of import
ance could be acted on that would add
greatly to the welfare of this commu-
nifty. =

That the Wise Will Listen to and Act
as Advised.
Ask a sick man about health.
He can tell you more IN a minute
Than a well man can in a month.
When you've lost it you'll realize it,
And when recovered you'l know its worth.
Be tied to the house for 81 Y months.
And you'll admire the vel mud and stumps
And dismal rain-when Gu ed, and out of doors.
Some one has said we are creatures of circum-
stances"
We are more creatures Of conditions"
But We govern conditions largely today.
We apply special remedies and get special re-
suits.
Specialists are the only successful physicians.
And special remedies are demanded.
There are doctors for the heart.
There are doctors for the lungs
There are doctors for the brain.
SPecalists-and for that reason successful.
Doan's Kidney Pills are specialists
The kidneys are the battle ground.
They are useless outside these limits
But always victorious in the field
Nothing erratic in their triumphant march.
They come to conquer and they come to stay.
It's not question Of helping once, then lose
their usefulness.
They can be appealed to if kidney trouble re-
ours, and they will not be appealed to in vain
