SOME TEXAS BILLS OF
INTEREST TO Ell PASO
The Representative From This Dis
trict Expresses His Opinion as t.
Their Chances For Passage.

The following letter to the chamber
of commerce from Hon. w. w. Bridg-
ers relative to several bills now before
the legislature is of interest to resi-
dents of Ell Paso. Senate bill No. g.
referred to in Mr.. Bridgers's letter is
the bill which provides that all suits
upon written contracts shall be
brought in the county in which the
debtor resides. The maximum rate
bill provides that the rates established
by the state railway commission shall
be maximum rates only and that rail-
way companies shall be permitted to
make lower rates if they SO desire. The
Little bill provides for exemption OF
the manufacturing industries from tax
alton from a period of ten years. Mr..
Bridgers's letter is as follows:
Replying to your favor of the Sth
inst senate bill No. 62 is already dead
so far as the house is concerned, hav-
ing been killed in committee. How
ever. 1 should oppose the bill were it
reported back to the house.
LAS to the maximum rate bill. it has
been my judgment that the bill is a
good one, and the action of the cham
Der of commerce confirms my judgment
in that particular.
LAS to the constitutional amendment
am not as yet familiar with the same.
though / have been in sympathy with
the spirit of the resolution as l have
understood it from Mr.. Little. How
ever. l am practically certain that it
would be a useless undertaking to at
tempt to exempt from taxation the in
dustries mentioned by you. In addition
to this / have some serious doubt If
the resolution should be submitted at
all, first. because / seriously doubt that
it would be adopted if submitted. and
second. because / seriously doubt If the
matter of taxation has anything to do
with preventing manufacturing inter
ests from locating in this state. Ger
tainly taxes are not SO high in Texas
as to keep manufactures out of this
state. l think reform legislation along
other lines would be more conducive
to the building up of manufacturing
interests in Texas than would be the
exemption from taxation for a term
of years. However, l may vote for the
but more for the spirit of
the matter than from any conviction
that it will actually result in any good
to the state. / am sure it will do us
no harm, if not any good"

committee to Mexico City to present
the invitation to Diaz. The invitation
to Mckinley, he thought, might be sent
direct He went on to mention the
importance of such a meeting recalling
the lasting friendly feeling existing
between the two presidents and the
various times they have expressed a
desire to meet each other.
Mr.. Walz thought that the resolu-
tions should be sent to Ambassador
Powell Clayton at Mexico City with a
request that they be presented to Diaz.
Mr.. Hammett spoke of the import
ance of the meeting and said it would
bring more people to Ell Paso than
the carnival did and would publish the
name of Ell Paso to every part of the
world. The occasion would be an ex-
tremely pleasant one to the people of
Ell Paso too. as two presidents of re-
publics never met before unless it
could be said that Houston and Santa
Ana were presidents when they met on
the battle field. The occasion. ne
thought could be made a grand one
surpassed only by the return of Dewey
to New York last year.
Mr.. Morehead thought it would re-
suit in lasting gain for Ell Paso and

A BROTHERS. LOVE.

LostaEt, ILL.,, July s.--Jamcs Watt
OF this place, by one little act, has
given n splendid example OF that
never dying love which exists oe'
tween brothers. no matter how far
apart they may be.
Mr.. Watt was a great sufferer from
Kidney Trouble and Nervousness
lie was very much used up, and nj.
though he had tried n great many
things, he had found nothing that
would in any way relieve him. Some
one suggested Dodd's Eidney pills
and he used six boxes. and was com.
pletely cured.
His first thought was for brother
In Belfast. Irclnnu, whom hc knew Ia
be afflicted In the same way that
he had been. Mr.. Watt Immediately
sent supply OF Dodd's Kidney Pills
to this far-away brother, together
with his recommendation based on
his fortunate experience.
