handed down in the case of w. c. IT.
vine VS.. b. b. Brooks, governor OF

election as state treasurer to four
year term. Brooks contended that IT.
vine was elected merely to fill out the
expired term of II. G. Hay. resigned,
or for two years only. The state Su-
preme Court holds that Irvine was
elected to fill out the unexpired term
of Hay. and that his term shall be two

Brooks was elected under circum-
stances identical. almost. with tsose OF
the Irvine case, the decision Of the Su-

BEET SUGAR ROADS.
Right Of Way Suits Settled In Otero
County,

Denver-A Republican special from
Rocky Ford says: Litigation between
Otero county's rival railroads has been
settled and work on the Arkansas val
ley road from Rocky Ford 20 Lamar
viii be pushed more vigorously thar
ever. A. w. Sheltons Holbrook ranch
was the storm center, as il was there
that the two surveys crossed An
agreement relating to crossings has
been effected.
Mr.. Shelton's suit against the Holly
& Swink road has also been ainicably
settled. That corporation pays him
$500 damages. This is not as much
as he thought he was entitled to. as his
ranch was badly cut up, but the Amer
lean Beet Sugar Company made up the
difference in way to make the situa-
ton satisfactory. The expected com
pletion OF the Arkansas valley road to
Holbrook in time to transport the can't
aloupe crop promises to increase the
acreage OF that product, adding to the
already promised over-production.
The American Beet Sugar Company
accepts all Holbrook contracts and
will build beet dumps to accom-
modate every $50 acres Of beet land.
Rails have been ordered for forty-fve
miles OF road, for delivery within
thirty days, and a number OF forty-five-
ton beet cars will be ready 'or hand
ling the crop in ninety days. The road
will be completed to Horse Creek by
October 1st and grading will continue
during the summer ON the line through
to Lamar.
Reports from Las Animas are most
favorable to the American Beet Sugar
Companys proposition for building
factory there.

LETTER TO &. &. NEWTON.
WaXahachie, Texas.

Dear Sir: You know diamonds
don't go by size So with paint.
We make paint, one gallon of
which goes as far as two of another
and lasts twice as long: that's four
to one.
You know it is true in diamonds !;
they don't go by the gallons, do they?
If you're going to paint your house
YOU go first to your painter and say:
I'm going to paint; do you want the
job? and whatll it COST"
If he happens to know, he'll say:
Depends on the paint. ! can do it
for somewhere about 500 or 5000,
whichever you like; 500 will make
a good job, 5000 a poor one"
And you, if you happen to have
your wits, II say: 'I'u take the
good one, when'll you do it,"
Painters ought, all, to know about
paint; and jewellers ought to be able
TO get a good job. We do what we
can to help both.
One gallon Devoe is better than
two of average paint, goes as far
that is, your house will take about
20 gallons Devoe and 40 of average
paint-and Devoe will wear a long
time the life of average paint is very
uncertain, it may be a year, it may
be five.
Why is it that painters don't know
about paint? Do jewelers. know
about diamonds? They know more
than they tell sometimes. There are
painters and painters; so there are
jewellers: so there is paint, and the
ast-gallon paint is Devoe.
Yours truly,
s f. w. DEVOE & CO,

THIEF CATCHING MAP.
Adjutant General Hulen Perfccts a
Plan for Moving Rangers

Plan for Moving Rangers.
Adjutant General Hulen has per-
fected little plan for the rapid
movement of rangers, or rather the
almost instantaneous perception of
where the rangers are located
He has a large Texas map, on
which are found clusters of small diff
ferent colored lacks with numbers
thereon. Each color, and there are
four, represents a company Of Texas
Rangers. The numerals on the heads
of the tackS indicate the names of
the rangers stationed at the places
where the tacks are sticking. At the
side of the map is a key showing the
number assigned to each ranger in
each company, with a tack at the
head of the company of the color
given that company. In this way one
glance shows where the *rangers are
located and the names of the men.
In a hurry call for rangers to catch
some robber or protect a prisoner
from a mob. Gen Hulen will be able
to save time and communicate with
the men at once by telephone or tele-
graph, and at the same time see by
the map which railroad route is the
most direct to the scene of the trou-
Bile.
It is a simple device, but Gen.
Hulen says it is valuable Nnen every
second counts.

the law tTemble in the face Of
strong and vigorous prosecution.
Does he mean that | and my assis
tants are weak and incapable of en-
forcing the law? Or that We are
corrupt and won't enforce it, As
to whether We are weak and incap-
able of enforcing the law the record
is the best evidence II shows that
Lee Hawkins, while county attor
ney. In | l-2 years convicted 400 in
the county court: Bowd Farrar, while
county attorney, in ! IL years con
victed 422 in the county court; !,
while county attorney, in l 1-2 years
convicted 432 in the county court.
Besides | missed one term of the
county court entirely, which makes
the difference In my favor only
greater still. In / IL years Bowd
Farrar convicted 5 for giving liquor
to minors; in same length of time
convicted 19 for same offense.
In the district court l have tried
so cases and convicted A, having
had only verdicts of acquittal.
! Nine of my cases have been appealed
to the higher courts and only two
| have been reversed and remanded.
| Both these / retired and convicted.
| Having never lost single case in
either court that was convicted by
| jury. This is the best record that
| has been made in the district court
of Ellis county.
Besides Judge Templeton is not
! the man to charge me with incom-
potency. He has not won a single
: case over me since | have been coun-
ty attorney. Down on the rock piles
of the state penitentiary today
sweating and breaking rock can be
found every client Judge Templeton
has defended since l have been county
attorney. Furthermore, when he was
county attorney of this county we
had local option and he succeeded 50
poorly in enforcing the law that the
people called an election and voted
the county wet. I can supply him
with the witnesses too, who will
swear to fragrant violations of the
local option law while he was coun-
ty attorney. Now all l ask of him
is that he treat me as fairly as l pro-
pose to treat him, viz: Supply me
with the witnesses that the law is
being violated under my administra
ton. | do not confine the invitation
to the Judge alone, but to each and
every citizen of Ellis county. 1t is
easy to accuse and find fault-any
body can do that. The name and
reputation of the purest and sweet
est woman that ever lived could be
blackened and ruined merely by an
accusation. What | ask of the Judge
is to prove some of his broad insinu-
ations and accusations.
Appended to Judge Templeton :
letter is a recommendation of my
opponents candidacy by IS Waxa-
hachie men. Each and every one OF
these, without exception, were against
me two years ago strenuously insist
ing that | was unqualified; yet the
good people of this fair city refuted
their arguments and statements by
giving me this town by a nice ma
jority.
Has it come TO pass that Judge
Templeton and 10, just Is. citizens
of Waxahachie who can not either
run. buy or scare the county attor
ney. have 10 rush into print TO tell
the 5000 voters of this county how
to cast their votes? | say mo.
Justice answers. No" Let your
vote say. NO Most respectfully,
