the bag, and going out, seated
himself in the shade of a cotton

lick. In few moments he put on
his hat and started for his mule.

mDGE WELLS CANDIDACY

JUDGE WELLS CANDIDACf
Speaking of the various candi-
dates for the position of governor
of the greatest state in the union
-Texas-and the haste which a
majority of them seem to think
necessary in laying their claims
before the people, the Laredo
Times, has THE following regard
ing the candidacy of Judge Wells;
1t is quite awhile since Judge
Wells announced through the Hon.
left McLemore, his friend and
partisan, that in due time he would
be a candidate for Governor, Aside
from this public statement Judge
Wells has been absolutely silent.
Such silence has he maintained, in
fact, that the public generally only
remembers dimly that he is in the
running. He did not desire to
launch a political campaign upon
the people a year and a half before
the election. He has been asked
10 speak out but he has steadfastly
refused. He is none the less a
candidate, or will be, at such time
as he thinks proper and eXpedient.
He has preferred to follow the
ancient custom, TO remain in the
background until such time as his
ideas Of propriety permitted him to
step forth into the arena.
That Judge Wells is a power i'll
Texas politics no one will deny
and that his friends are legion, the
sequel will prove when his an
nouncement comes. 1t has been
said of him that in the battles OF
Democracy, "one blast upon his
bugle horn is worth a thousand
men" and this has been proven
time and again in the fierce battles
for supremacy in the only danger
spot to the Democracy in the State,
the Rio Grande border.
He has never sought Office ter
himself. His labors have always
been merely the conscientious per
Torrance of his political duties as
a leader of the State Democracy
and he has been content to let
others reap the rewards, content
that he had won victory for his
party's candidates.
Without for a moment intending
torefect upon the candidates men,
toned above or their methods,
Judge Wells will never seek the
Office of Governor as these same
gentlemen have sought il. His
friends will have to wage his cam
paign and win his victory for him.
He has spent his life and his means
in waging heroic strife for these
same friends and for his party, and
now, when he gives the signal
there will be some surprises for
those who heve been in the public
eye so long before the real struggle
comes. His great services to his
party, his loyalty to his friends
and, above all things, his eminent
qualifications for the high position
of Governor will appeal irresistibly
to the people of Texas"

Fishermen VS.. Millionaire.

A curious contest has arisen in
the Adirondacks in consequence of
the attempt of William Rockefeller,
the Standard Oil magnate, TO absorb
the village of Brandon, n. Y,
into his vast private park il that
section. Mr.. Rockefeller has ac-
quired over 100000 acres in the
wilderness, and controls forests,
mountains, lakes and rivers, the
entire tract teeming with game. In
the midst of this estate Mr..
Rockefeller has built a superb
country place on Bay Pond, a
beautiful sheet of water.
The village above named is en-
circled by Mr.. Rockefcller's pos
sessions. A few years ago it had
/ 200 inhabitants, but the decline
of the numbering industry caused
these to dwiudIe to small num-
Der. Mr.. Rockefeller has bought
the greater portion of the village
and removed the houses thus Sc
cured. But few owners of prop
erty in Brandon refuse to sell out,
persist in living practically in Mr..
Rockefeller park, and are charged
with illegally fishing and hunting
in his preserve.
Two natives who have been most
defiant opponents of the multi
millionaire are Black joe Peiea,
a blacksmith, and Oliver lie Mora
veteran of the Civil War. Botf
these men own land in the village
which they do not want to disposC
Of. They have both been prose
cuted for trespass on Mr.. Rockefel
ler's property. but the damage
given hare been nominal. SOM
5000 signs warning trespasser
away are displayed on Mr.
Rockefellefs estate, and one motto
threatening him with death ha
been posted.

Music and Money.
From the Salt Lake Telegram.

From the Salt Lake Telegram.
1t Is unfortunate that commercialsm
should have invaded sthe artistic precincts
of music, but it eseens that 1t has. OF
course, there is plenty of good music. but
1t is not that of the present day What is
composed now is smerely for the moment.
The comic operasi and musical comedies
of today last for a day. If one of them
survives two or thirSse seasons it is remark
able. Yet the vogue of such compositions
as 1.-THE Bohemian Girl and the Gilbert
and Sullivan operas will not pass within
the lifetime of theepresent generation.
1t is froth, froth, aroth. Light operas are
written and songs composed to tickle nov
elty-loving ears forta few times and to get
all the revenue possible as quickly as pos
sible There is no work for the sake of
art, nothing done with the thought that 1t
will live. Coon songs and ballads of sickly
sentimentalism are hurled at us as fast as
pens can scratch and presses run, and they
are forgotten as soon as they are sung
few times. 1t is no effort to forget them,
and many of us would do 1t quicker were
we permitted to. Yet there are coon songs
that live. "Massa's in the Cold, Cold
Ground" MY Old Kentucky Home and
"Old Black Joe" will never lose their
charm. THE Last Rose of Summer" ben
Bolt and kathleen Mavourneen are as
hauntingly sweet now when they were
first sung. But their authors and COMPOSERS
did not think of the money. They wrote
and composed because of the poetry and
the music In their hearts
There may be music In the clink OF coin,
but there Is mighty little lasting melody in
the music written for monax.

The number of the japanese on the At

on the Pacific coast. There are about
1000 Japanese in the Greater New York

twenty stores and business Offices repre-
senting the large companies in Japan;
and 90 students in Columbia University

and many in the different schools. The
great number of the 1000 are students,

others are merchants, artisans archi-
