FROM THE CAPITAL CITY
The New Anti. whitecappIns Law Is q Very
Far Reaching One.
STATEMENT OF FACTS IN CANNON CASE
Were Filed Too Late 10 Perfect tho
Appcai-Bond Issues Approved.
BARK Rozetta Matter.

Austin. Texas. August 24.--The act OF
tho Twenty-sixth legislature defining
whitecapping, which goes into effect on
August rs. Is far-reaching statute. Rigid
ly enforced. It would stop much devil
ment. Here is the way it reads:
An act to prevent wnitecapping, and fixing
punishment therefor
Be 1t enacted by the legislature OF the
State OF Texas:
Section /. Any person who shall post
any anonymous notice UT make any threats
or signs or skull and cross bones. or shall
by any other method post any charat ter
or style of notice or threat to do personal
violence or injury to property on or near
the premises of another, or who shall cause
the same to be sent with the intention OF
interfering in any way with the right of
such person 20 occupy said premises or 20
follow any legitimate occupation. calling
OF profession, or with the intention ut
causing such person to abandon such
premises. or precincts, or county, In
which such person may reside, shall be
ueomed guilty OF the offense of white
Gaping, and upon conviction therefor
shall be punished by confinement in the
state penitcntlary for any period OF time
not less than two years, nor more than
nve years.

MUNICIPAL COURT.

Tho new State law authorizing municipal
courts goes into effect next Sunday and it
Is on the calendar for tho council to pass
an ordinance creating It at its meeting
Monday evening. The council will pro-
coed just rs II there were no recorders
court and the ordinance will create an
entirely new court in order to comply
with the requirements OF tho law. When
the ordinance is passed the mayor will
appoint a Judge and the council will pro-
vide clerk and the court will begin OPP
orations as soon as 1t can be organized.
OF course, Noah Allen, the present record
err will be the new city Judge
The new Jaw gives tho municipal courts
Jurisdiction to try State cases whore the
penalty OF conviction does not exceed q
fine OF 5000 but does not give the court tho
right to conduct preliminary hearings in
felonies--this right being reserved to the
justices.
When the recorder formerly exercised
Jurisdiction in State cases, Recorder John
son claimed and collected for his own ac-
count the costs allowed by State statutes
TO Justices OF the peace in like cases. Re-
corder Allen would like the same privi-
lege ON the ground that the new law will
more than double his work. Another rea-
son which appeals to him Is that under
the now law all finoR paid In the municipal
court, whether In State or city cases, Will
go into the city treasury, This point will
be covered by the ordinance creating the
court.
