start, and then rugged up a howitzer
on a platform IN front OF the engine
and another one OF the fat cars IN
the rear. and started for the Capital.
We had heard that there were thou
Annapolis and Washington. but though
We kept sharp lookout and had our

the things that needed legislation.

Austin, Tex, is at the head Of the ar

enough scalps of wicked combinations
to, make an Apache chief tremble for
his IaureIs.
Mr.. Davidson and his efficient aides
are here TO argue important cases be
fore the United states Supreme Court.
One Of these cases is the receivership
Of the Waters-Pierce Oil Company. The
other case involves the validity Of the
Texas law that imposes a tax on the
gross receipts Of the corporations. This
law is being fought hard by all cor

HASN'T BEEN APPROVED

Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
P. V. DeGraw has issued a statement
that the Postofice Department has not

so that the carrier would not be delayed

quest OF the department officials for the

by inference at least. led the patrons 70
believe that their device was officially
indorsed.
Mr. DeGraw states that none Of the
devices have been approved or Endorsed
by the POstofice Department. as II IS
not the policy OF the department 70 give
official approval 70 any such devices. II
IS stated however. that many OF the de-
vices in question possess merit. and
there is no objection TO their use.
