We have noticed with great deal
of interest and pleasure the move
ment started among the CONNER
cial organizations of Texas for more
safe and sane legislation, and for
the repeal of the drastic laws passed
by the last legislature. The News
Review is heartily in favor of a
strict control of the railroads and
other corporations which are doing
business In the state, but we believe
the pendulum has swung too far, and
that the people of Texas are suffer-
ing more today from the effects of
the drastic laws placed on our stat
ute books than we are from the eff
fects of the short crops or the mon
ey panic.-Hico News-Review.

said he was almost completely worn
out and that he would come home
on the 5:35 Katy this afternoon.
Deputy Sheriff Hickman has been

WEEKLY WEATHER BULLETIN
Summary of Weather Conditions for
Week Ending June g.

Week Ending June 8.
Following is the summary of the
weather conditions in Texas for the
week ending June s, as reported by
Section Director Bunnemeyer of Gal
weston:
The past week was marked by
warm weather, considerable cloudi-
ness and generally deficient precipi-
tation. There was no rain over by
far the greater portion of the state
Light showers occurred in scattered
localities in the central portion of
the state, and heavy showers in sew
eral north-central and Red river val
ley counties, and in portions of the
Panhandle, the amount ranging from
one to three inches. A large number
of northern counties has received a
superabundance of moisture and is in
need of sunshine, while in most
southern and western counties the
need of rain is beginning to be felt.
The mean temperature was from
two to five degrees above the normal
due to warm nights rather than to
unusually high day temperature. The
lowest temperatures reported ranged
from SO degrees at Amarillo to 80
degrees at Corpus Christi. and the
highest from SO degrees at Calves

New Mexico for Bryan.

Santa Fe, N M, June cit ap-
pears likely that the democratic ter
ritorial convention when it meets in
Roswell tomorrow to elect six dele
gates to the Denver convention, will
instruct for Bryan. Among some of
the delegates, however, there is a
sentiment against a pledged delega-
ton, and fight against instructions
may be made on the floor of the con-
vention. General sentiment in the
territory favors the Nebraskan, and
no other candidate has been promi-
nently mentioned

If Governor Tommie Campbell has
his ear to the ground he is doubtless
hearing a mighty rumble of discon-
of Texas And in view of the fact
that it is the announced policy of
Hon. R R. Williams TO oppose the
very laws that are now being OBJ
jected TO by the people Tommie may
begin TO realize that there may be
something doing in the July pri-
maries.

Ellis farmers are busy telling
the board of equalization of the un-
reasonable values placed upon their
properties for taxation, and the
equalizers, being convinced of the
reasonableness of the majority of
complaints made, are doing some
figuring on valuations on their own
account. But for the fellows who
were worked into rendering their
properties at full rendition, expect
ing that such renditions would be
general throughout the state. there
seems to be no recourse, and with
the prospect of paying taxes on full
rendition at about the same old tax
schedule we are all feeling fine. No
wonder everybody is for Tommie for
governor.

THE NATIONS LIQUOR BILL.

In the light of the very strong pro-
hibiton movement which has recently
shown itself throughout this country
1t is somewhat of a surprise to learn
from the America Grocer, which has
kept a yearly record, that our drink
bill for last year was much the lar
gest on record. The total amount
was 81 466,5S4 900, an increase of
S15,729, 500 over 1906, and divided
as follows: $S43,333, 500 spent for
beer, $504,794 400 for distilled spir-
its and $11S, 456,0 900 for wines. In
all these alcoholic beverages there
was not only an increase in the total
amount consumed, but comparative
and relative increase. The American
people drank over a gallon per head
t1.04 gallon per capita) more than
during the previous year; their
whisky rose from 1852 gallon to 1.63
per capita, or about a pint more for
each person. They average also a
the previous year (0.12 of a gallon).
This makes the highest drinking
point on record. The figures create,
as we said, much surprise, says the
New Orleans Times-Democrat. 1t was
generally supposed that beer was
driving out whisky as drink, but
the contrary proves to be the case.
We are drinking more beer, but we
are drinking more whisky too. The
result is difficult to understand at
first blush, because there has been
strong prohibition movement in this
country for some time past, which
was thought to be reducing the
amount of liquor consumed, and
which the brewers and distillers re-
ported as injuring their business.
Strange to say, in England, where
there is no prohibition and where
the brewers have exerted great in
fluence in political affairs, there has
been steady decline in the amount
of alcoholic beverages consumed for
the past five years.
There are several explanations of
the increase The figures are those of
1907; and during the greater part
of that year we were in the midst of
an unexampled prosperity, which
brought about a lavish expenditure
There was more money to spend than
ever before and more was spent, and
it now appears that We increased not
ing, but of beer and whisky also.
Moreover, the prohibition move
ment in the south, although well I'M
der way in 1907, had not yet won
any very great victories or placed
entire states under prohibition, and
we shall not be able to tell how far
prohibition in the south has affected
us until 1909. 1t will probably be
claimed by the -prohibitionists
that these figures prove what they
have always claimed, that prohibition
| does not actually prohibit and that
the consumption of liquor continues
| to grow larger, both in the aggre-
gate and per capita, in the face of
the steady and rapid extension of
prohibition territory. AS a matter of
fact, the figures furnish no direct
evidence on the subject one way or
the other, but they certainly show
the prohibitonists, little had been
done up to the beginning of 1908 in
reducing liquor consumption in the
United States. ,a
