There has been some talk in
political circles of an extra ses-
sion of the legislature to devise
ways and means of raising money
to pay outstanding indebtedness,
in view of the fact that the pro-
posed issue of bonds proved un-
sdlable. The bone and sinew of
the state are trusting that an ex-
ira session may not be necessary
having had an ample suffciency
of the legislature until the next
regular term.
First cotton blooms" are be-
coming SO numerous these days
throughout the state as to attract
little attention. The cotton crop
is most promising, despite all
drawbacks of the season.

Ex-President Roosevelt an
that he will make his

given him on former trip
this state.
Near-beer dealers in this state
have received a second knock
out at the hands of the supreme
court and loud indeed are their

that the aforesaid dealers insist
on getting little too near with
their wares.
Contrary to general opinion, a

Echoes of the great immigra-

Gently are reverberating from all
sections of the state. The key

ing the move to transfer the Jeffries-

track to San Francisco, said
The only thing the cub will have to

there is nobody to prevent it. l haven't
the slightest doubt the club can get a
permit in San Francisco without any

Arguments that the Jaw is made to
provide only for amateur contests is an
swered by the section which provides that
contestants must be examined by physi-
clans before entering the ring. If the law
anticipated only amateur contests, 1t is
not likely that provision would. have been
made.
Judging by the way our party has been
met and the questions put to us. there is
no question about the interest in the
