Bryan, Texas. April 10, 1905.
Many Of my friends having spoken

candidate for the legislature, l think
II proper 10 submit my Views on
some measures that I would be In
favor OF having passed by the next
session OF the legislature Of the state
OF Texas, II were elected a repre-
sentative OF Brazos county. First, /
would be In favor OF n law prohibit
ing the manufacture or sale OF any
patent medicine In the state OF Texas
unless the ingredients OF the said
medicine were printed in plain Eng
lish on the label of said bottle or
package, and making the penalty
for the violation OF said law, n fine
OF not less than one thousand dollars
for each bottle or package sold.
Second, / should favor law by
which the state of Texas should en-
gage In the refining or manufacture
ing of kerosene oil, using convicts as
laborers, thereby coming In compe-
tltion with the great trust Of the
country.
Third, / should be In favor OF law
working short term convicts on the
public roads, giving each county the
preference Of using its own conyiets.
Fourth. I should be In favor Of
amending the probate law Of this
state so that all estates less than one
thousand dollars should be retired
from the regular probate docket,
thereby saving small estates from
being exhausted by costs and ex.
peuse OF court.
Fifth, should be In favor of law
making II felony for a witness in

Texas after due process Of law had
been served upon him, for the pur-
pose Of not testifying In said cause.
SIXTH should be In favor OF

General Linares, of Cuban war fame,

on questions arising out Of the generals
of the war without ,discredit, and it Is
hard to see why he should have deemed
it necessary to fight over his record.
He was wounded at San Juan. and the
command Of the defense thereupon de-
volved upon Toral, who was the gen.
eral who conducted the Santiago sur

Toral In 1898, and he had rough re-

Linares was criticised but little.

PLAY BROTHER AGAINST BROTHER BOOSTS FOR SCHOOL LIBRARIES
1t Developed in Football Game Between
Spokane High and Whitman, Sat-
urday-Lessons of the Game.

An odd feature of the football game
between Whitman and Spokane high
school last Saturday was that two
brothers, Vincent and Stanley Borles-
XII, played against each other. Vim
cent is right end for the high school
boys and Stanley left, nalf for the COL
legians and when Spokane had the ball
the brothers would often be opposed
to one another.
Borleski, the missionary, is fully
sustaining the reputation ne came with
and more too. He will be one of the
fastest players in the Whitman line
up this year. His smaller brother is
also right. in the game at all times.
The game Saturday was a good one
but hardly up to the expectation Of the
Whitman aggregation. The loss of
Rigsby and Oldwright was keenly
felt as their places were taken by
brand new men and the lineup shifted
about considerably.
Pnilbrook was good on punts but
Saturdays game may be said to have
demonstrated beyond doubt to many
people that Whitman cannot afford to
leave the COOL and skilful butcher out
Of any game. He can kick goals better
than any man Whitman has had for
years and can probably outpunt any
man in the northwest this season.
Perringer made good at half, but it
is the opinion of many that his 200
pounds can i'll be spared in the line.
Fumbling was the cause of the small
score Saturday. Then Whitman was a
little careless about holding, which re-
suited in considerable loss of yardage
on penalties by the collegians.
The game Saturday was useful in
showing where the weaknesses are and
coach and team will go to work with
will at once to weed out the faults
before the trip into Oregon, which is
next on the program.
