Minor oHenss,

1t is essential that the laws prohih-
iting and Furnishing misdemeanors
or minor offenses. shall be faithfully
executed, not only because the execn
ton OF these particular laws material.
~ effect the welfare and interest OF
the people and society, but also for
the reason that If they are not faith.
fully enforced such failure brings
about disrespect for the laws. the
courts and officers charged with their
enforcement. generally, and thereby
creates a law-defying spirit which
breeds crime of all grades.
II the laws. are to be enforced eff.
tectively, such enforcement must ex,
tend to all Of the laws and no sickly
sentiment against the reasonableness
business or fairness of a law should
ever influence officers or Jurors to
deal laxly or negligently In the mat
ter of its enforcement All laws pro-
hibiting and furnishing offenses are
enacted by the legislative body repre-.
senting the entire people of the state
for the purpose of correcting evils and
any man who would obstruct their en-
forcement thereby becomes disloyal
to his government and impairs his
character as good citizen.
Shiner gazette. [volume] (Shiner, Tex.) 1893-current, 1906-05-23

The laws upon our statute books
prohibiting and furnishing gambling
and the keeping of open doors and do
ing business on Sunday, are frequent
ly in some localities, especially our
larger cities, enforced with shameful
laxness and want of fidelity. l know
of nothing that so quickly and surel,
destroys the integrity of character as
gambling; the youth of our country
are attracted to and decoyed into
gambling places, and their characters
are soon wrecked and they become
part of the criminal class. swelling
the multitude of grave crimes com,
mitted in our midst. The observ-
ance Of the Sunday law offers to la
Dor day of rest and encourages rev.
erence for God and Christianity, and
strongly aids In the development OF
good citizenship.

delinquency and failure in the enforce.
ment of the laws. No higher dnty
rests upon the state than that OF nro.
tecting the lives Of its citizens. When.
ever the government fails In this oh.
legation, II manifests weakness or
want of fidelity in the most important
junction with which 1t is clothed bv
the sovereign voice of the peonle
The time has arrived when there
should be an awakening on this sinh
Ject which will result in speedy ana
certain punishment of every man who
uniawfully takes the life of his fellow
man, The law OF murder In this state
Is needlessly complicated and encum.
Dered with technical provisions NOT
required for the protection of inno-
cence and which obstruct both the
speediness and effectiveness OF the
execution of the law against unlaw.
ful killing. There is no sound reason
why 1t should not be stripped of its
useless and hurtful complications and
tecnnicalities and made as easy of
speedy and certain enforcement as the
law OF theft. '-

very candidate which is the choice OF
the centralized forces. This will be
the case In this election unless the
good people of this state become
aroused to the actual situation. Last
year the National Brewers associa-
ton held a meeting, and 1t was stat
ed In the newspal ers that large
sum of money was raised for the pur-
pose of fighting the prohibition OF the
liquor traffic in the states, and that
100000 of that sum was set apart
to fight local opion in Texas. Where
Is that money, and what Is now be-
ing done with It? Two hundred thous-
and dollars turned loose by the liquor
interests in this campaign would be
mighty factor in results, but this
is not all, this Is only the breweries
that are heard from. The whisky
men will doubtless come up with their
part and swell the fund to double
that amount to be used in Texas.
What purpose have they in view? If
they could secure legislature friend
ly to their traffic and governor that
did not have backbone enough t. firm,
ly stand opposed 10 their demands
for emascrlating and rendering weak
and ineffective our local option laws,
then thsy will have accomplished all
they rould wish. The people Of the
State should demand to know Of every
candidate for the legislature how he
stands and how he would vote upon
any and all measures. such as the
Willacy bill. tending to weaken the
force and effectiveness of our local
option laws.
That the brewers and liquor deal
ers will cooperate and act together
in this campaign is not a matter Of
surmise, but is made manifest by an
interview of prominent liquor deal
er published in the Dallas News, as
follows:
Shiner gazette. [volume] (Shiner, Tex.) 1893-current, 1906-05-23

1t IS some times found tfl-
ficers charged with the enfofss'. 4
OF the laws upon this subject q
countenance to all sorts of schemes
and subterfuges to sell intoxicating
liquors in local option territory. ..10tRe
inspiring motive and object of these
laws is to preserve the sobriety and
manhood OF our people and suppress
the most fruitful source OF crime IN
all of our land. Sobriety is essential
to the mental and physical vigor OF
manhood, to the preservation OF in
tegritay, energy, ability and frugality
in prosecuting the business of life,
and to the comfort, happiness, sane
tity and safety of the home. An Of
ficer who would fail in his duty with
respect to this law deserves to be
stripped of the official robe and have
his commission placed in the hands
of another brave enough and loyal
enough to his oath of office to faith
fully enforce it.. This law is embrac,
ed within the obligation imposed by
the Constitution upon the governor
ITO cause the laws to be faithfully
executed" and IL that obligation
should be laid upon me l pledge the
people of this state to use with vigor
and determination every means with
in the scope of my authority to cause
the local option laws of this state toy

adopted by the people.

be glad to know that every citizen
of Texas having others dependent up
on him had provided against the con-
tingency Of his death by life insurance
in a reasonable sum in solvent COM
pany. The recent developments made
of the shocking and gross misuse, not
to say theft, of trust funds by the
popular, large insurance companies OF
the East should be sufficient warning
to the people Of Texas not to put too
much faith in the reliability and per
manent solvency Of such institutions.
1t also suggests that we should guard
the organization and operation or
such companies under our own laws
and in our own state, and see to 1t
that they are safe repositories of
trust funds confided to their keeping
and judicious management. Life In,
| surance companies organize under
the laws of other states or of foreign
countries and doing business in this
state should be under the effectual
supervision OF our insurance depart
ment, and they should be required
| at stated and frequent periods tc
make full and thorough showing Of
their condition. and full publicity
thereof should be given to the citi
zeDs of Texas. and no company should
be permitted to do business in this
state that Is not found upon investi
CATION and thorough information to BIZ
reliably solven. We should further
require that all such companies do
ing business in this state should in
vest at least seventy-five per cent o
their legal reserve upon Texas poll
Giles In Texas securities or property
and proof Of this fact should be re
quired to be annually made to our In
surance department.

penses OF administering this govern
ment.


Our Constitution provides that no
railroads in Texas shall be owned or
controlled by parallel or compel
ing line, and further that there shall
be no consolidation OF the property
or franchises OF railroad corporations
owning, or having under their control,
parallel or competing lines. There is
a tendency among railroad corpora
lions all over the United States to
consolidate their properties, and our
constitutional inhibition against such
consultations should be steadfastly
and faithfully adhered to in legisla-
ton, and vigorously enforced by those
charged with the execution of our
laws. There has been much legisla-
ton in the past in behalf of various
railroad interests which approaches
certainly to the very verge Of the con
stitutional inhibition. I am appraised
of the fact that such legislation In
many instances has been demanded
by the citizens resident in the local.
ty to be affected, because the result
would greatly rebound to the better
men Of the service Of such roads. II
is, howver, profitless to discuss the
past, but looking to the future no one
should gainsay that railroad consoli
dalton In Texas should be carefully
guarded and held within strict con
stitutional limits.
Shiner gazette. [volume] (Shiner, Tex.) 1893-current, 1906-05-23
Freight and Passenger Rates.

In 1890 the people of this state
adopted an amendment to our Con-
stitution authorizing the legislature
to provide and establish all requisite
means and agencies with such powers
as may be deemed adequate and ad-
visable to regulate railroad freight
and passenger traffic, correct abuses
and prevent determinations, etc. I'm
der this constitutional authority, at
the following session Of the legisla-
ture, our present railroad commission
law was passed and the railroad com
mission was given full jurisdiction
and authority in the matter OF regu-
lating freight and passenger traffic,
correcting abuses, preventing unjust
determinations, etc. The honored
and lamented John H. Reagan, out
of love for Texas people and devotion
to Texas interests, In a spirit of sub
lime self-sacrifice, gave up his seat
In the senate of the United States to
take the Craftsmanship Of the railroad
commission for the purpose of put
ting the commission into effective and
successful operation. With the aid
of able and good men associated with
him on the commission, that body as
sumed to exercise the powers and the
obligations imposed upon 1t by law
with reference to the regulation of
railroads in the matter of their
charges and accommodations to the
public. While not all the good which
may have been expected has resulted
to the people from this agency, few
will deny that the general public has
received large benefits in the reduc-
ton and stability of rates, the cor
rection of abuses and prevention of
determinations This Is made mani.
fest by the fact that no one Is to be
found ready to go before the people
to advocate abolishing the commits
sion and restoring the subject matter
OF IT'S Jurisdiction to the legislature
to be handled by that body. Since the
creation of the commission 1t alone
has exercised authority In the matter
of freight and passenger rates. Under
this condition of our governmental in
strumentalities and agencies. 1t would
be worse than idle for candidate for
governor to attempt to create the i'm,
preston with the people that II he
were elected he could reduce the
freight or passenger rates. While
BTSdlly ueSlTe me lOWeSJ IdlSb Jldl
can be had and would exercise my
fullest influence and authority to that
end. would not be candid II did
not say to the people that in this
matter l would have no constitution
al power to exercise directly in thelr
behalf. If the reduction of freight
and passenger rates on railroads In
spired my candidacy. would stand
as a candidate for the office of rail
road commissioner, where would
have authority to deal with such rates
and not that of governor. will MOI
make promises to the people which
l know cannot make good.
