send a postal card notice to each

has been nude for the term of District

With only one day yet remaining,

busy From indications now the poll
tax payments may reach last years,
although several days ago ii seemed
as if they would fall far short. The
Office will be kept open tomorrow

ANNOUNCEMENT.
For District ATTORNEY.

THE GAZETTE has. .hean au-
tnorized to announce the candi-
dacy of RoBGRr f. NIXON of
Gonzales for the office of District
Attorney Of the 25th Judicial
District, subject to the action of
the democratic primaries, and he
respectfully soIicits your sup
port
this before leaving the county as
he is still supposed to be chair
man.
The meetings of the committee
should never be called for Satur-
day, the last committee decided
against that by a large majority
as a quorum could never be had
on that day. Monday would be a
far better day for the committee
to meet 1t has also been sug-
gested that the committee re-
duce the representation to one
membar from each voting pre-
cinct. Whis, we think, would be
an unwise move as it would re-
duce the committee TO s mem
bers, and as a majority of the
committee constitutes a legal
quorum, the affairs of the party
would virtually be in the hands
of five men which would not be a
fair representation in county
dhe size of Lavaca. The com
mittee as now constituted is com
posed of about % members and
a quorum of that number would
be Is, which is a small enough
humber to represent the Democ
racy of Lavaca County.
Should the membership be re-
duced at all, it should consist of
at least two members from each
precinct, which would give a
membership Of sixteen and nine
members would then constitute a
Quorum. And furthermore it is
not necessary that the chairman
should he a resident Of Hallets-
vile as there is as good Demo
cratic timber elsewhere in the
county as can be found in Hal
letsville, and Sinner offers a can
didate for the position In the per-
son of Mr.. John @. Blohm, than
whom 10 better democrat can be
found.
The rank and file of the com
mittee should be composed Of
good and true men, who are dem
ocrats from the ground up and
who have always voted the demo
cratic ticket from President to
Constable.

The forestry Work.

Probably no work undertaken by
the present administration has re-
ceiyed or deserved more general pub.
lie approval than that of the for.
estry bureau The slaughter of our
forests by lumbermen who desired
To make themselves rich during their
own lifetime whatever might happen
to the country after they had disap-
peared has been scandal and a
crime. The great state of Michigan,
for'example. has perhaps forty lum,
Der milionaires who take the place
of thousands of square miles Of
pine lands which are nov barren
and unfit to support a population.
The methods IN vogue In Germany
and in France and In Austria II
applied to our timber lands would
have made fewer millionalres. but
would not have left the territory
stripped of its trees
But that does not altogether mean
that in attempting to correct these
methods the bureau of forestry has
adopted methods which are either
effective or just The information
that goes out from Washington Is
largely influenced by the head of
the bureau. People who receive It
alone do not understand that in
the northwestern states millions of
acres utterly devoid of timber are
within the forest reserves and that
all WOODED public lands which
might be used for purposes OF
settlement or grazing are also in
cluded. There has been no fair op.
portunity given for the people of
such states as Montana. Wyoming or
Washington TO present TO the exec
u1ae thyr arguments upon this
issue. Out there It Is a serious issue
And they feel its Importance all the
more strongly wheT they bear in
mind the fact that the middle states
We're built up without any such
handicap as It is now proposed 10

part OF the forestry plan II Is pro

Of history that the present president
of the United States in his more
youthful days maintained n ranch
At Hedora. ~ d., and paid no H.
cense fee nor any rental for the
range over which his cattle strayed
II is not surprising that cattlemen
further west wonder why he is de.
manding from them, as president,
tax which he as a ranchman was
never asked TO pay.
The men Of the far west who are
opposing the autocratic rule Of the
forestry bureau are not men who
wish 10 slaughter the fsests, not
men who object In the slightest de-
gree TO government conservation of
grazing and timber lands, They are
men rather who appreciate the ne
cessity of preserving the timber in
order that the streams so neces-
sary to the irrigation OF their
country may not lose their waters:
that the timber shall not be ut
terly destroyed and their states turn
ed, like northern Michigan. into an
arid wilderness; that there shall
be room for the cattleman, and for
the settler But they do not be-
lieye that enormous sections OF

Taft Still Loyal.

1t was thought that Secretary Taft
would in his Boston speech relieve
himself OF the charge that he rep
resented nothing but the administra-
ton. II had been believed that he ahd
views of his own and that at last he
was about to express them. The
people who held to this belief must
have ben much surprised when In
his speech at Boston he proclaimed
himself merely the mouthpiccc of
the Roosevelt administration.
AS a result of this the Taft can
didacy must succeed or fail, accord
/ ing to the strength of the presen,
/ ry Taft has announced no conyic-
tons, nor any purposes. He is con-
tent to applaud when he has been
directed TO do so by his superior
He has frankly challenged the suf-
frages OF the country upon the one
single issue as to whether all that
has been done and preached by the
Roosevelt ADMINISTRATION represents all
that could have been done best or
or most righteously preached by any
administration. lie has declined to
say word concerning the revision OF
the tariff. but he talks strenuously
about regulation of railways and
trusts. 1t would be interesting IL the
secretary of war at some time when
he is In his office, very unusual
time by the way, would explain to us
what has been done by this admin
istration TO regulate railways. 1t Is
true that the administration put
through railroad rate bill. but eight
months after its passage It has never
been appealed to to regulate any
rate or any railroad. Mr.. Taft I'm
forms us that he is earnestly op
the interstate railroads" That is per
fectly probable, he may be oppose,
r to that and still be entirely con
| tented with the system which make

+ As a matter OF fact government own
