The LOCAL JOINTS RAIDED
On Complaint of +. f. McCloud County
Attorney Issued Warrents and
Seven Men are Arrested.

Tuesday was a strenuous one for
the sheriff and the joint keepers.
They were prepared 10 see the light
ming strike in month or two but it
came without warning that night. The
process was one made possible by the
county attorney act of the new liquor
law.
1t seems that +. T.. McCloud, who is
better known as Lige McCloud, far
mer living east of town, went to the
county attorney and filed information
against several of tie joints. The in
formation states on oath that he was
in the places named and described and
that he bought and saw bought intoxi-
eating liquors from bar keepers in
these places. A description of the
men dispensing the drinks is given
when their name is unknown. Under
the provisions of the law the county
attorney has no option in the matter
and he promptly issued warrants on all
the cases made.
The papers were placed in the hands
of the sheriff about dark that night
and he and his deputies Immediately
started on their grand rounds. When
they had finished seven men were in
custody, six of them giving bond and
one of them remaining in Jail.
Clih McCarley was arrested as pro-
prietor of place on the west side of
the square,
l.. ID. Montgomery was arrested as
proprietor of "A place on West street
just across the alley. William Shea
was taken also, as an employe of
Montgomery 5.
George Clayton was arrested as
clerk for Andy Sweizewski, at their
place on north Washington,
Sam Mills was arrested as proprie
tor of a place behind his brothers.
restaurant on the north side.
John Kennedy and his helper o. p.
Briggs were gathered in at the stone
building, corner West and Walnut.
All the men arrested gave bond in
the sum of 5000 for appearance at the
time of trial, except George Clayton
and he is in Jail until Andy gets home,
when it is expected bond will be fur
nished for him.
One man wanted escaped by slam
ming a door in the deputy sherifr's

witness is not known, He has been
drinking heavily of late and his wife
repeatedly sought him at the resorts.
Whether he was refused liquor and
became angered, or has turned new
leaf on New Years eve, or was moved
to action by the temperance workers
is: not known. All three theories
have been advanced. He did a
thorough job whatever his reason
Not only does he testify to what he
himself did on given dates, but he
cites the names of other people whom
he saw buying and drinking in the re-

If the coming grand jury transacts

this Senatorial and Representative
District. The people of san An
gelo and Tom Green county have
started move i'm the interest Of
those who are here and those
wanting Co come 70 West Texas
in the quest of homes. We favor
opening up the State Lands to
settlement Mt the earliest possible
moment and that without reserve,
and we confidently believe these
views are held by great majority
of the voters in this district and
the farther east you go the more
united are the people on this
question. Heretofore the men,
bers of the legislature from the
eastern part of the state have been
dictated TO by members from the
western districts who have con-
,gs4.eG the true status of West
Texas and keep Tie Eastern menu
bers deceived on this question.
The western members have gener-
ally been selected by a kind of
tammany body of politicians
controlled by the wealthy and
therefore (always) influential
cattlemen and by the convention
method in which the people have
had no voice. The result has been
that not one member who has
gone TO the legislature, either
senate or lower house, from this
district in the last four sessions,
could have been elected had he
come out openly and advocated
the measures that were passed by
them ut Austin. In 1897 u COW
man was elected as representative
and he insisted on Tom Green and
Coke counties being thrown in
the "absolute lease district" the
one with the best town in West
Texas and traversed by more
running streams than any county
in Texes, the other given up to be
the best farming county any
where west of the black waXey
belt. Does any body suppose that
majority of these people would
have voted for u man with such
views as that? In 1899 we had a
man for representative who intro

AN ADDRESS.
To The Democracy of the 24th Senatorial and
lO2nd Representative District of Texas.

Gated any such measure before
the election? III 1901 we had a
man for representative who voted
against Il bill to open up 81 coun-
ties to settlement including Tom
Green. Coke and adjoining coun-
ties. Who says he represented
a majority af his own people? In.
Il matter Of a candidate for state
senator We feel constrained to say
that the same crowd has brought
out our fellow townsman Hon. j.
w. Hill. Are we right in think
ing so? We think 80 for the
following reasons.
lst. Mr.. Hill is eminently sat
isfactory to the pasture men who
control the State lands by lease.
2nd. Mr.. Hill can not point to
one citizen who is advocating the
Adjustment of the absolute lease
system and putting the land on
the market, who solicited him TO
be candidate for that office.
Bird. Mr.. Hill refuses to an
nounce publicly his position on
this important issue though he
has been requested privately and
publicly TO do 50 by friends who
would like to honor him if they
could consistently do it.
18th. Mr.. Hills friends stubborn
ly refuse to allow the people of
his own county to vote for or
against him in the primary or
submit his name TO the primary
which is the only way to get u
full and fair expression from the
people.
9Th Mr.. Hill had an opponent
from Ell Paso who was an avowed
advocate of long leases on state
lands and of protecting the leases,
this gentleman has withdrew from
the race. FL Paso has instructed
for Mr.. Hill for state senator and
Mr.. Hill and his friends are sup
porting FL Paso's candidate for
congress, Mr.. Dean. Now for
these reasons and many more not
mentioned for want of space, we
the committee selected by mass
meeting of democratic voters Of
Tom Green county most emphati-
cally say, that we cannot support
Mr.. Hill for state senator and we
call upon and earnestly urge all
the democratic voters of this sena-
torial district to support Hon.
j. j. Rhodes for state senator,
who has been brought out by the
people who want to see West Tex
as settled up and every man who
needs a home, have an opportunity
of securing it on state land. Mr..
Rhodes has not sought the office,
but the people have sought him,
and it behooves the democrats of
this district to elect man who be-
