An Indorsemennt Of Peak.

To the Members OF the Texas Division.
Austin, Texas, July i0,Must Of you know
that the serious Illness OF my wife prevent
ed me from attending the convention at
Old Point Comfort. However. notice
that the returning travellers are enthusiastic
In the belief that Howard Peak will win
out for National president next year.
The suggestion that we offer n new can
dldate was surely made In jest, as every
T. +. A, man you meet on the road now
says, III any Texas man can win II is
Howard Peak"
The many pledges that were made to Peak
at the late convention eau not be utilized
for another candidate.
Peak is the choice OF a majority OF the
Texas division, and as he still chcrishcs
that very laudable ambition 20 be president
OF our National association we may rely ON
the prompt refusal OF the loyal T. r. a.
men who are being discussed as possible
candidates to preclpltatC contest among
ourselves, which could only result in dis,
aster TO all
on to Portland with Peak as our stand
ard bearer. Yours fraternally.

to Davenport. just before dark last
evening Officer Brinn found him wan
dering about the streets in rig, I'M
able to tell whether he was in Rock
Island or Chicago. He was taken to
the station and requested to tell
where he got the rig. but he did not
appear to have the faintest lecollec-
ton. When threatened with being
locked up he expostulated. With a
superhuman effort he would straight
en- up, look Officer Schmidt in the eve
and say, ''Pm all right; I'm 'sponsi-
BILE for the rig. Just let me think
awhile" But his think tank was
full of booze and it was ne use So
he went behind the bars, aud inquiry
by telephone discovered the owner of
the rig to be Henry jaeger, of Daven-
port. Wilson was held till this morn
ing, when he paid a fine of 81 for
being drunk and took a train for
home.
