STEPHEN F. STEERE.

If the fervent prayers of his wife and
his relatives and the ardent wishes of
his friends had prevailed, Stephen F.
Steere would now be numbered with
the actives in life, but he is no more
of earth; he has been called to higher
and most glorious sphere
1t seems as if it were yesterday that
he was about the postoffice building, ex-
ercising his functions as postmaster,
with a hearty greeting for all who
came within his reach.
1t was on Sunday night, July II, that
he was stricken with acute indigestion,
with complications, which necessitated
an operation for his relief With this
ordeal over, there followed encouraging
anticipations which, unfortunately, were
brief. At 7:o5 O'Clock Monday morn
ing he was 1ifeless.
The deceased was born in Hart
wick, Oswego County, New York.
About twenty-six years ago he was
married to Miss Genevieve Patten and
SOOI lleISdIleI .CdIIle 10 shreveport
which has been their home For years
Mr.. Steere was connected with the
Morse Compress Company, ard later
was connected in the lumber trade with
John R. Jones of the Victoria Lumber
Company, of which he was vice presi-
dent AS testimonial of esteem all
business at the plant was suspended
He was popular with all classes of the
people.
As is generally known, the deceased
was postmaster, the duties of which he
fulfilled acceptably. II may be said that
in every sphere of life he was stead
fast and true to his obligations as hns-
band, father, friend and good citizen.
His death is loss to this community.
The deceased is survived by his good
wife and two daughters, Mrs. Wise
Hollingsworth and Miss Sybil Steere,
three brothers and sister of Oswego,
N. Y, and his cousin, Cyrus Steere of
this city.
The funeral will take place at II
o'clock tomorrow from the family resi-
dence, 1923 Murphy street.

THE POSTOFFICE
Assistant ]. H. Pretz Is in Charge
Is Popular.

Since the death of Postmaster Steere
Assistant Postmaster J. H. Pretz has
assumed charge of the postofice. Dur
ing the illness Of Mr.. Steere he was the
head of the postofice, but not officially.
lie will hold this position until his suc-
Cessor, when named by President Taft,
shall qualify. Mr. Pretz has scores of
friends throughout the city irrespective
of politics. He is thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT with every department of the post
office, the details of which he has at his
finger ends. He is withal we'll liked by
the employees and is generally popular
with all classes of the people.
The widow of the deceased postmas-
ter has ben mentioned as a successor,
ard in the same breath it has been said
that negro is or may be named for
the Office This is nonsense. Equally
sensational is the statement that a
Democrat will be Mr.. Steere's success
sor, as this will not be possible as long
as there are Republicans, good and
worthy citizens, who can fill the posi-
ton.

EEXAS POLITICS
Colquitt Nominated for Governor by an
Estimated Plurality of 4o,ooo-State-
wide Prohibition Has Large Majority.
Independent May Contest with Col

The latest news concerning Demo-
cratic politics in Texas comes from
Austin. Both the prohibitionists and
anti-prohibitionists won a victory in
Saturdays Democratic primaries The
nti-prohibition organization nominated
its candidate for governor, O.. B. Col
quit, by 10000 plurality, and the prohi-
bitionists, according to the cout of the
votes SO far made, carried the PROPOSE
ton of Statewide prohibition by. large
majority.
The proposition as voted upon Satur-
day, July 23, is to make it obligatory on
the part of the Legislature to submit to
a vote of the people proposed consti-
tutional amendment providing for
Statewide prohibition The State con-
vention, which is to meet at Galveston
August 10, must make this demand a
part of the party's platform. 1t is ru-
.nored Mr.. Colquitt will refuse to &C
cept this Statewide prohibition feature
of the platform. In that event it is said
the prohibition element of the party
will put out an independent candidate
for governor. But for the fact that
there were two prohibition candidates
for governor that faction of the party
would also have won that feature of the
contest by a large majority. Senator
w. J. Bailey's candidate, William Poin-
dexter, is the third man in the race for
governor, Gone Johnson occupying sec
ond position and running in the lead in
many parts of the State.
R. U. Davidson, former Attorney
General, who made the race for govern
or on his record as trust buster" and
in having collected fine of $I,68o,ooo
from the Waters-Pierce Oil Company
driving that corporation out of Texas
for violating the antitrust laws, is the
fourth man, as shown by incomplete re-
turns
The prohibition Democrats are re-
ported to have two-thirds majority OF
the Legislature, which will give them
plain sailing in anti-saloon legislation
despite the fact that the nominee for
governor is an anti-prohibitionist

THE MAINE
Engineer O'Rourke Declares He Can
Raise the Battleship.

New York, July 24.-Engineer John
F. O'Rourke, president of the O'Rourke
Construction Company, will meet Gen.
eral Oliver, acting Secretary of War,
at Washington tomorrow and discuss
with him a plan for the raising of the
Maine, the battleship now at the bot
tom of Havana harbor
Mr. O'Rourke has given much atten-
ton to the subject, and since Congress
at its last session appropriated 100000
for the raising of the Maine, he has
worked on his plans and now is ready
to bid on the contract. He talked the
matter over with Colonel Roosevelt on
Friday, and Colonel Roosevelt displayed
keen interest.
Mr.. O'Rourke will take with him to
Washington tomorrow blue prints, pho
tographs and drawings illustrating his
apparatus and the methods of operation
Il would like very much said Mr.
O'Roruke today, TO make my plans
public, but to do SO at this time would
be breaking confidence with the War
Department. When my apparatus is
described in print the public will be sur
prised, my plan is SO simple and feas-
ible. If / get the contract to raise the
battleship I will ask for six months in
which to do it, but | have no hesitation
in saying that will be able to do it in
three months.
"The Maine weighs many tons | will
raise her at the spot where she went
down and will be able to let her leave
Havana under her own steam. It is my
plan to let those interested inspect her
just after she is raised They will be
able to see her just as she was when she
sank If there are any bodies left in
her they will not be removed until a
thorough examination of the vessel is
made.
| The whole trouble about the raising
of the Maine has been to discover ap-
paratus capable of raising such a
weight I have found that apparatus
| It's just as simple as building bridges
or tunnels, as l have done in the past.
