GENERAL TOW SCURRY.

Among the appointees named by
Governor elect Lanham appears
the name of Thomas Scurry, who
Is reappointed as adiutant general.
The reappointment of General
Scurry is a source of much gratif-
cation to all who know him through
out the state. A gallant soldier,
braee and chivalrous, aud at the
same time modest and unassuming,
he wins the liking Of all, while the
ability and good judgment dis
played by him in the execution of
the duties of his office have also
gained for him the admiration of
chose who have had occasion to
observe this side of his character.
The following tribute paid to him
by the Galveston Tribune, just
previous to the announcement of
his reappointment, illustrates the
general opinion concerning General
Scurry's qualifications:
''TheFe is one applicant for re-
appointment under the admins
tration of Goyernor-elect Lanham
IN whom Galveston has, or should
have, d direct interest. When the
town was in a state of chaos, Just
after 1he storm, and when the local
machinery Of government had
broken down under the strain and |
worse than chaos was threatened, |
Gen. Scurry was intrusted with the
work of restoring order. How we'll |
he did this is matter of history.
No man who has ever been adiutant
general of the state of Texas ever
had such task to perform as Gen.
Scurry performed here on that oc-
casion, and no man in Texas or out
of it ever did more valiant service
TO a people than he did Gifted with
splendid courage and rare executive
ability Gen. Scurry at once restor-
ed confidence here when confidence
was almost gone, and he had not
gotten his machinery government
well established before every man,
woman and child in this town re-
oognized the fact that they would
be perfectly protected no matter
what might come. 1t was due sole
ly to the rare abilities of General
Seurry that this condition obtain
ed, and his splendid work here
should entitle him to a reappoint-
ment if he had done nothing else.
But the truth OF the matter is that
under his administration the ad-
Jutant generals department has
made record of which it may well
be proud. Ever ready for every
emergency, tactful, resourceful and
ready, Gen. Scurrv has made an
ideal adiutant general, and Gal
weston, where he found the theater
Of his most notable achievement,
will sincerely trust that Gov. Lam
ham will make no change in the
office over which Gen. Scurry has
presided with so much credit to
himself and credit to the state"
