BOWMAN PUSHES
BAILEY CAMPAIGN

Hon. J. r. Bowman. candidate for
alternate delegate at large TO the
Denver convention on the Bailey tick
ct, left this afternoon for Hereford
where a meeting has been arranged
for him by Deaf Smith county Bailey
men. Several Bailey meetings have
already been held In Hereford and
the attendance at them makes II GER
tain that the meeting this afternoon
will be largely attended.
From Hereford, Bowman may go
to Parmerton or some other Of the
towns in Farmer county. Bailey men
in that county have written to secure
dates and they have probably ar
rnaged for a meeting tomorrow.
Saturday night Bowman spoke be-
fore crowded house in the court
house at Panhandle. The seating
capacity OF the house was overtaxed
by the crowd in attendance and peo-
pie filled the doors and windows.
The interest shown and the applause
given was OF substantial encourage
ment to the Bailey men.

New Rock Island Extension
at Ontario
(From Thursdays Daily)

The following from the San An
tonic Daily Express is OF interest to
people generally in the Panhandle
country and OF especial interest to
residents OF Amarillo and other
towns OF the new Rock Island ex-
tension:
w. A. squires OF Henrietta, gen.
eral manager OF the Panhandle Short
Line Railroad Company, is in San
Antonio in connection with the pro-
posed construction work in South
west Texas. Contracts Will be let
at an early date. 1t is said, for this
work. Mr.. Squires' especial mission
here at the present is in connection
with that portion OF the road be-
tween UValde and Crystal City,
According to the present plans,
San Antonio will be included on the
map OF the new road. 1t Is also said
the road will reach deep water at
Rockport.
w. G.. Ross, president OF the COM
pany, T. Carrabine OF Kansas City,
president OF the Southwest Texas
Construction Company, in company
with Mr. squires and others, will so
over the proposed line from Artesia
10 Rockport. Should this route be
acceptable, surveys will be made at
once and contracts closed,
"Thirty-two miles OF this line are
now being constructed by Asher
Richardson" said Mr., sQuires at the
Bexar Hotel last night Twenty
two miles have been graded south
from stanton, on the Texas & Pacific
railway, and twenty-four miles are
graded from Stanton north. twenty
two miles north from Dimmitt, Cas-
tro county, to Hereford.
Surveys are now being made from
Stanton to San Angelo. The o'Don-
nell Construction Company has a
large force OF teams TO commence
work as soon as the line is located
-' 1.-THE line will be extended from
] San Angelo to San Antonio, should
present plans be carried out.
"The large construction company
OF suderman. Dolson G. Co. will have
the contract 10 build from Uvalde
to Crystal City; the Southwest Texas
Constructor Company will construct
the line from Hereford to Ontario, to
connection with the Rock Island
system.
"This line OF railroad Is already
financed and work will be pushed as
fast as money can be used. 1t is ex
pected to have the whole line com
pleted from Ontario, on the Rock
Island railroad, to Rockport, at deer
water, in two years, and the line
from Stanton to San Antonio In
eighteen months. There will also be
a branch line into Roswell, N. NJ.
that will give San Antonio a direct
line to New Mexico and to the grea
Panhandle country a territory she hi
tried SO long to get to this country
and is now fast developing"
Mr.. squires believes the business
men OF Southwest Texas will mani
fest a keen interest in the project
which will place this section Of the
state In closer communication witt
the northern part Of the state.

George NJ, Reynolds, OF the Con-
tinental National Bank OF Chicago,
is authority for the statement that
business is showing a healthful re-
covery from the effects of the recent
panic. He points out that while the
volume OF business is not so great
and will not be so great for some
time the Indications are that the
country has not suffered permanently
from the furry. In act, for the
past five or six years the volume
OF business was inflated. We were
going too fast Now that this fact
has been discovered merchants and
manufacturers are taking in sail and
getting used to the new conditions,
In future business will be conducted
on more conservative lines and while
this may lead to the employment of
fewer men, it will establish affairs
upon much more secure basis.

HEREDITY AND ENVIRONMENT.

DR.. Emil Hirsch OF Sinai Temple,
Chicago, takes issue with those who
teach that the soul OF a babe Is as
pure as white paper. In his sermon
last Sunday he said;
Man may choose his mother-in-
law, but not his mother. Heredity
and environment have much to do
with the character OF a person. II
we knew exactly how much they and
other agencies exert influence we
could figure out exactly the character
OF a man just as We can the eclipse
OF the sun. Il is taught in the Book
that the sins OF man shall be Wis
tied upon his children even to the
third and fourth generation. To get
moral regeneration we must have a
change OF surroundings and love.
Change the conditions If you hope to
change the character.
I'VE have moral genluses and
moral Idiots. The latter should not
be placed in penitentiaries. Just as
we'll try to cure typhoid fever by
such Incarceration as try to cure a
moral idiot by placing him in pris-
on. Some OF these moral idie>-- AZ

at any range, hasn't been seen much
at this sort of work here. Reilly's
footwork is probably wee bit to the
good, while II seems that Leahy has
somewhat, though not indisputably,

He stopped Fox so quickly the other

SCULLY'S SHOW SET FOR 4 P. M.

Jack Scully's big boxing show at In.

o'clock this afternoon. The change

toned was made at the request of a
large number Of sailor fans, who
would rather see an event of this
sort during the daylight hours. Scully
has improved even on the very excel.
lent arrangements he had for the last
show, and promises performance
which shall be worth the while of any
fan.
The card Is undeniably strong. Trim.
kle OF the Maryland, lightweight cham.
pion of the Fleet, and Fox of the de-
strOyer Perry, champion at his weight
of the fotilla, will go Is rounds. The
bout, from all indications, will be
about as fast an affair as the fans here
have yet looked upon. The men are

Fox's ability was proven at the show

that case, he has lots of class. and no

Replace Young
Nelson

Joe Gagnon of the destroyer Stew
art will take the place of Young
Nelson in the preliminary tomorrow
evening for the Orpheum glove show.
He will go on with Weber, since Mel
sons broken nose. received at the
hands of one Joe Leahy, prevents him
from taking any part in the show.
This Is the last day of work for
the men who are to furnish the big
fun tomorrow evening. The break
ing of Nelson's nose in a merely
friendly sparring bout with thickly
padded gloves has caused some COM
ment among the fans. Does It
mean that Leahy has u horrible
smash in his two hands, or does 1t
mean that the glove caught Nelson
wrong once? That question may
have light thrown on it when Reilly
and Leahy hook up tomorrow.
The fans have seen enough of
these two men to form some compar-
ison now. Both men are very expert
boxers-just as expert as the best in
any division of the game. Both are
as cool as IA small iceberg when fac
ing an opponent. Their tactics are
remarkably similar. They both use
a left jab, which they follow in 20
rapidly that they can land three or
four times on less wary and quick
opponent before he can move at all,
Both are quick as cats, but there
comes difference. Whether right
or wrong, there seems to be an i'm
preston among some of the fan col.
only that Reilly is a shade the quick
er OF the two. Others deny it stout

Ryan To Referee
It's fine card throughout, of the
sort Scully usually puts on. The In.
dependence arena, being practically
an open.air stand, is pleasant for a hot
afternoon or evening. The large
sprinkling of sailor material on the
program will probably have great
number of Uncle Sans salts out to
witness the fun, while the local en-
thusiasts are very much in the habit
of turning out to see any show back
of which are Scully or Paddy Ryan
and both are in on this one.
Paddy will be the third man In the
ring this afternoon. There was never
a better referee than Ryan; judicial,
cool, and absolutely impartial. and the
sort of man that the public usually
makes no delay in tieing to. The fea.
ture of good refereeing alone is a large
recommendation for the occasion.
