Hon. f. F. Noel, according to
the Newton Times, fired the first
gun of the campaign in that paper S
town last week. In that speech,
Mr.. Noel outlined his platform,
which is practically the same that
he advocated four years ago. Mr..
Noel is the author of the primary
election law. favors elective iudici-
airy and better schools for the white
children of the state. Other candi-
dates for governor agree with Mr..
Noel in the essential features of his
platform so that the campaign is
likely to be influenced largely by the
personalities of the candidates.

According to the FriarspOint En-
terprise, property has doubled in
value in that town within the past
three years. This is a splendid
evidence that Friarspoint is growing.
When a town grows, the value OF
its real estate grows along with it.
There are people who do not believe
this, else they would push their

Anent Extension of City Limits.

Mr.. EDITOR i notice your con-
temporary, The Aberdeen Exami-
ner, Is continually advocating the
extension Of the city limits. Now,
ii seems that he has not considered
the project in all its phases. There
are always two sides to all questions,
and we should view the matter
from both standpoints Now then
what real advantage would be de-
rived from this extension Of city
limits? We would have more ter
ritory it is true, but then this pro-
posed addition is Of little actual
value and would yield very little
revenue to the city, and while there
would be some few good citizens
brought into the city limits the
great majority of the new made
citizens would be of the more worth
less class, namely, negroes, OF whom
we already have a surplus. Again,
should not the wishes Of the people
of the proposed addition be con
suited? l venture to say they do
not desire to be brought into the
city with its taxes which they had
no voice in making Again, the
proposed addition has very rugged
roads, requiring a vast amount of
work for the city to do to put these
new streets into any sort of shape.
Then there is to be considered the
matter of increasing the city police
force. Our present force would be
wholly inadequate for this larger
territory. Then again, our water
works would have to be extended;
our lights would have to be carried
into this new territory which would
be quite an item to be reckoned
with, and it is well known that our
present limits are insufliciently light
ed. This I submit for the eonsid-
erntion Of those who may not have
thought over the matter in its diff
ferent phases.

Shooting Down the Alps on Skis.
rI4ondon Graphic
The quest for a moral is provoked

The quest for moral is provoked by
a long list of skiing accidents in the
Alps. In itself the exercise can hardly
be considered more perilous than skat-
ing. tho the proportion of sprained an
kles and twisted tendons is higher, but
when the skier skis a distance from
his base an. ventures upon unfamiliar
ground, there are at Least three ways
in which calamity is liable to befall
him. On a glacier he may break thru
the snow bridge which he is trying to
shoot and be buried in crevasse. On
the hillside he may ski violently down
a steep place. and unable to arrest his
pace, end by skiing over a precipice.
Almost anywhere unless he knows the
signs. he may ski in the tracks of an
avalanche and be overwhelmed. Elk
amples Of each of these several kinds
of disaster have lately been presented.
and each of the disasters conveys a
warning of which amateur ski-ers,
whose name nowadays is legion, would
do well to take careful note.

Suckers and Feeders.

Chicago, June 5.-The country de-
mand seems to be very limited and
traders here are inclined to attribute
the general apathy to the agitation
against the packing house conditions.
This has hurt the demand for meat
and consequently damaged the mar
ket for fat cattle. 1t has evidently
put the country in conservative
mood and lessened the demand for
stockers and feeders of all kinds. To-
day local buyers We're operating
lightly and seemed to be more eau
tious than usual. A few of the good
feeders were taken at steady rates
but most of the supply changed hands
on a weaker basis. Good to choice
feeders sold at s4.25@4.65 and the
medium grades went slowly at 1913
@415 with the light stock cattle main
ly at $3.40@3.60.

board of supervisors. Sheriff G. A.
Lee, who has held the office for the

by plurality of 230. This is regarded
as testimonial of his excellent ssr-
vice. Two of the present members Of

were nominated, but the other MEM
Der, G. A. Rye, was beaten two votes,

mention.

A wel-known Chicago business man,
whose residence is In Austin. has an
old aunt who is fond of paying him
yearly visits, but whose kilograms of
arrival always bring consterna ton to
his mind.
Aunt Polly's husband had taken good
care of her and left her we'll provided

result was that Aunt Folly had about
as much appreciation OF the demands

A few months ago she sent tele-

Z: Us train the following morning Now,
Aunt Polly comes in at the Illinois
Central, and the business man did not
relish the trip from Austin at that
hour of the morning, but there was
nothing else to do.
In his anxiety to get to bed in good
time he forgot to set the alarm, with
the result that 1t was just $50 o'clock
when he opened his eyes the next
morning. He made wild dash for
his clothes, showed his collar in one
pocket and his tie in the other and

He landed in the station just as the

scaIpers Bought Freely in That Market
Today, AItho the Quality of Offerings
Was Poor-Lisht Receipts Credited

ing the Prices Of Sheep.

Chicago, June 5.--Demand was good
enough to warrant the trade in calling
the market strong, tho supplies We're
very light, and in some instances the
market was little more than a nominal
one. The outside trade was good, but
the bulk Of trading was done by pack
ers.
The weak spot in the steer trade
Monday was in cattle which sold from
$500 downward. These had to go to
the packers, the ones who We're bearing
the market. Sellers who had good and
common cattle would go thru the ex-
perence Of having buyers bid on their
good cattle while completely ignoring
the common sorts. This was not true
in few isolated cases merely, but
was the general rule. so that 1t was
not till late hour that the yards were
cleared of their offerings. Practically
all of the steers which had to sell
average from the closing prices last

On run estimated at only 1900,

boosted prices to levels about sc above
those of yesterday. The quality was
poor. A top price of 6.471a was paid.

The trade was strong and for good
sorts OF sheep and lambs it was gem
orally a 10c higher market. Light re-
ceipts were the principal factor In adj
