More Railroads.

The Business Club is going at
the railroad proposition along the
right lines and with the proper
incentive. San Angelo is the
natural railroad center of West
Texas and as nature has 80 ar
ranged things it behoovcs the
people of the city TO do that
which is without natures sphere.
TO offer S2J 600 to the first new
railroad building into San Angelo
is without doubt the proper
course. With the Santa FL al
ready here and the Orient practi-
cally assured these two roads are
eliminated from the proposition.

their national platform already
drafted. The democrats are squab-

among the democrats and this

the republicans that distinguishes
the two and enables the latter to

prominence given che Chinese and
Japanese notables here in attend

writer's think they see in the hon

weakening Of the spirit of OPP
position to the immigration Of
the Chinese. They think that the
honors to Prince Pu.Lun and 9TH

Things are coming easy for the

all. 1t is rather queer, by the
way, that the people who affect to
believe that there is n yellow peril
are at the same time hearty SYM

Russia. If there be II yellow peril
then all American workingmen,
one would think, would be in ia

Exchange Clippings

1t remains TO be seen what will
be the result of the action Of the
president of the Western Union
Telegraph Company in discontin-
uing the racing service for pool
rooms. Nearly every state in the
Union has laws against such
places, and the company is
charged with the cause Of the viO-
latiOn, because without the assist
ance of the telegraph the pool
rooms could not operate. Being
pinned down to point whore
this could no longer be denied,
the management of the company
has, under pressure in New York
caused the service to be stopped.
1t may be that the agitation in
New York will result in an obser-
vance of the anti-pool room law
in Texas. 1t is Il long way round
to get an enforcement of IA law

Minneapolis Journal Correspondent


Repeats "Machine's 81 Story.
1t took the Minneapolis journal
correspondent until yesterday to get
in story of the Stevens county con-
vention, and when the item did ap-
pear,it bore the ear marks of a source
by no means friendly to the Morris
delegation.
After mentioning the resolution
which was adopted endorsing Con-
gresham Volstead's stand against
free Canadian wheat, the correspon-
dent says
"The delegates to Ortonvilla, how
ever, are not all favorable to Mr..
Volstead's denomination, when the
time comes for that contest, and it is
asserted by the knowing ones that
the resolution was more of play
for position by one of the factions in
the convention than actually repre-
enting the views of the party"
If the delegates to OrtonviIle are
not favorable to the denomination of
Mr.. Volstead, will the members of
the machine kindly explain. Seven

macaroni wheat IS, as we have often
had occasion to mention it in the
past. 1t is wheat with a large
plump berry and will easily yield 35
bushels to the acre. Elevator mel
have fought it, millsrs have claimed
thar they could not grind it, and
bakers have claimed that they could
not make bread of it. All these
assertions have been disproved, and
from not being recognized in the
market at all, macaroni has TO, ced it's
way in, first at twenty-five cents off
Mol then at Is cents off, lost fall at
10 cents off, and now at cents off.

ture hurts it. It is more properly
called durum wheat rather than
