Candidates
Are Charged
With Lobbying

AUSTIN, Texas, March 27-McFall
this morning again tried to getxnp his
bill revoking the Waters-Pieree per-
NIT, but failed.
Senator Bailey is said to be working
his friends in the house not to allow
the bill to come up before adjournment.
, Mr.. Shannon in the house charged
that certain prospective candidates for
congressman at large in the event the
state is not reapportioned are lobbying
against reapportionment.
The appropriation bill went through
the house on first reading, not much
mutilated, this morning. There were
very few changes.
Five thousand dollars was added for
an experiment station at Beeville. The.
volunteer guard only got five thoHs-
and dollars.

not exaggerate. but on the contrary
underestimated the value of the gold

Hammett
in the Lead
HE ANNOUNCES HIS CANDIDACY
IN THE HERALD TODAY, IN
RESPONSE TO URGING.
While There are Many Suspected Can
didates No Others Have Come Out OF
the Woods

Citizens continue TO guess concern
ing the local political situation. and
any person supposed to have any in
side information is constantly assailed
with questions from every side
The convention will meet soon and
then the riddle will be solved and the
people will know all about it,
Just at present the main question
asked is Who will be the nominee for
mayor?" and it is heard on every side
Local political conditions were new
CT more confused than at present and
such work as is being done is going
forward in secret The factions are
fighting one another savagely for su-
premacy and an effort is being made
by both sides to keep under cover and
to keep their deals and combinations a
close secret For that reason the pub
lie remains almost in total ignorance
The mayoralty race is regarded as the
main issue and the public seems to
have lost sight of the candidates for
the minor Offices. Nevertheless they
are as plentiful as butterflys in June
and are rustling around. displaying
considerable energy and hghting hard
against one another Those who have
been in Office several terms and are
seeking to succeed themselves are the
ones who appear TO be the most
frightened of the bunch. They realize
that the resolution of Magoffin to ac-
cent but two terms has set a bad ex-
ample for them to follow and has had
a weakening effect for the old regime
all down the line and may even result
in the breaking up OF the old gang.
whose policy was to get everything in
sight and hold IL for life
Hammett Will Run.
Major B. F. Hammett will make
the race and from remarks heard on
every side it appears that his candi-
dacy is favored by large element of
the business community and it is stat
eo that he will win hands down before
the convention.
Treasurer's Office.
The race of c. w Fassett to succeed
himself as city treasurer is attracting
widespread attention and IL is claimed
that fight will be made both for and
against him. He is an old timer, hav-
ing been in Office many terms and seeks
to succeed himself. II is noised about
today that one of the Coles brothers
will make the race against him with
fair prospects of winning out in the
convention. The Office is good one
requiring but little time and no extra
ordinary display of bookkeeping skill
to fill it with entire satisfaction. The
Incumbent can do the work at odd
moments. earn fat salary and lose no
time from his usual occupation. The
old man. it is said. will use all in
fiuence at his command to retain Fas-
sett and has already been out skir
mishing around in his behalf.
