TEXAS REPUBLICANS
BILL M'DoNALD Is NOT SECRETARY

for Holding the Next state

Dallas, Texas, April l1.--DaIas republi.
cans strcnuously deny the published report
that William NJ. Mcdonald of Forney. the
negro. leader, has been appointed political
secretary Of Chairman ". H. Il. Green,
vice w. NJ. oLeary, recently appointed
postmaster Of Dallas.
Chairman Green Is not In the State and
the truth Of the cause OF an incipient row
in the republican camp can not be learned
Miss Rebafay, who was Major oI.eary' y
very competent assistant, is acting puliti-
cal secretary at the Dallas headquarters
She has recently mailed letters to hun-
dreds OF prominent republicans over the
state asking their views as to what should
be the party policy this year. Many an
swers were received today. All the writers
say that there should be d ticket opposed
TO democracy put In the field, but few offer
any plan for doing this. In nearly every
letter is the suggestion that Houston Is
the best city in the State IN which 10 hold
the convention this year. II B believed
that Chairman Green will coon call the
State committee TO meet early In May.

Considerable Attention Given to
Violations of the Agrecment.
San Antonio, Texas, April 1.-THE Texas
Plumbers association met here today. 1t
was called to order at $3.50 o'clock this
morning at Mission Garden pavilion. The
president, Jonathan Bowman. of San An
tonic. made brief and appropriate ad-
dress of Welcome Delegations from Aus
tin. Dallas, Galveston Houston, Fort
Worth Denison,. Sherman, Corsicana, San
Antonio and other points, We're IN attend
ance. The reports of the secretary and
treasurer show the affairs of the association
to be in a healthy state. there being a
good balance on hand IN the treasury. This
fact enabled the association to contribute
5000 to the local union for assistance in
the entertainment OF the visiting delegates
to the National convention 10 be held here
Thursday.
The association had only Joined the
Southern league for year, but at today's
session it was concluded TO make the mem
bership permanent and have the State as
ISOLATION pay the uer capita tax 10 the
leagne ana National association instead pi
having the members do so individually.
Considerable time was spent in eyecu
tive session in the discussion OF topics that
outsiders We're not permitted to receive en-
llghtenlnent on. but il leaked out that the
turnishers of supplies who had not kept
faith with the association came In for
scoring, The report Of the executive conf
mittee also dwelt with complaints against
the supply houses and also with recalcitrant
nie mhers who had been accused of en-
croaching on the preserves and territories
of other members. 1t also dealt largely
with the troubles at Denison among the
members themselves and also with supply
people 1t recounted attempts Of nonrcel-
dent members to secure contracts for fur
nishing material and doing work on a
building at Corsicana. but disclosed the
fact that this structure was located just
outside of the corporate limits of the city.
It, however deprecated the attempts,
holding it to be as wrong for any non
resident member of the association to seek
to encroach on the territory of resident
members as it was for a supply dealer 10
ATTEMPT TO do the same thing. The rec
concentrations of the executive committee
ON this subject was adopted, as was the
report In it's entirety.
Galveston Fort Worth and Corsicaha
we're the candidates in nomination for the
next annual meeting place. Fort worth
received three. Corsicana five and waves
tcn seventeen votes The latter city was
afterwards selected by unanimous vote @s
the next meeting place
William C. Schuwith OF San Antonio was
elected president J. c. Keithly OF Hons
ion vice president; David; Woodheau also
of Houston secretary. and Daniel f. sui
