lions prevail over the north-central
portion of the country, with the high
est barometer reading (3074) inches)

has occurred from the Great Lakes
eastward to the Atlantic coast. Rain
is reported in the Pacific states, the
Plateau district and in portions of the
Rocky mountain region. A disturb
ance which is developing over the

settled weather is indicated for this

OUT ON THE FIRING LINE.


Governor Thomas NJ. Campbell says
Texas was not given a square count
Secretary Of State Townsend favors a
revision of the figures" and State
Superintendent Bradley says Texas has
been robbed of 100000 inhabitants.
Cheated" is the word Mr. Bradley
used 1t is a waste of words to quar-
rel over the census returns. The
count as announced will stand for ten
years, as the Hon. E. Dana Durand is
master of the situation ]. R. Bah
cock, secretary of the Chamber Of
Commerce, would have been satisfied
with 100000 and is positive that
poorly-paid enumerators will not cover
sparsely settled territory. Texas
scholastic population is $4,000. Ac-
cording to Mr. Bradley the population
of Texas should not be less than A.
$4,000 people Within radius of
100 miles of Dalla smore than 1,500,-
900 people have made homes. 1t is
folly to indulge in lamentations or to
make faces Another census will be
taken in 1920-Dallas Times Herald.

The Texas man wants protection

The Florida man wants protection

The West Virginia man wants pro-

The massachusetts man wants pro-

LEFT FOR TEXARKANA A.
Rev. kIgore and Family Went to New
Home Via Early Morning Train.
Good-Byes Said.

Via the 1885 train Rev. j. Kilgore
and family left for TeXarkana, to
which church and charge the Metho-
dist conference sent Rev. Kilgore as
pastor On account of the early de-
parture of the train but few were at
the depot to tell the pasor and his
family goodbye, but nevertheless the
hearts of Palestine people are with
them Yesterday at the church hun
dreds shook hands with the departing
pastor, expressing love for him, and
thanking him for the work he has
done for them and for Palestine.
Rev. Kilgore made splendid record
in Palestine, and he leaves the church
closer united and in a much better
working spirit than he found it on his
arrival here four years ago., His work
in Palestine has been blessed with sue
cess, and throughout all that time he
continued to draw the people
closer to him. The effects. of his
labors and the results of his ministry
will ever remain a testimonial of his
untiring zeal, his efficiency, and of his
devotion to his calling.
Rev. Kilgore and his excellent fam
lily will be sadly missed in Palestine

Already the liquor interests, includ-
ing those newspapers friendly to the
saloon in Texas, have set about de-
terminedly to create a division among
the pros of the state, by bringing for
ward old political differences and try
ing to explain away how such differ
ences are to be settled. Their solicit
tude is really pathetic, but the Herald
suggests that the pros settle these
matters for themselves. And the only
way the pros can hope to win is by
putting aside every other question and
uniting in this fight. If other ques-
lions are to be dragged in the fight
had as well be abandoned before it is
begun.

ACCUMULATED PACKAGES
In the Dead Letter Office at Washing
ton Were Sold at Public
Auction Today.
(Herald Specially

Washington, D. c., Dec. 12-That
all men, and women too for that mat
ter, like to take chance at getting
something for nothing was evidenced
today by the immense throng that at
tended the annual public sale of accu-
mulated packages in the Dead Letter
Office. Hundreds of people sought the
chance to gamble in package mail.
They damned the sale room from the
hour the sale began, until it was con-
cluded. All kinds of property was
bought, from stale candy and hair
tonics to breakfast foods and liver,
pills. Some jewelry, books and wear
ing apparel of more or less value
went under the hammer, but the real
bargains were few and far between.
The public sale of Dead Letter stuff
has been conducted each year in
Washington for many years and each
year the crowds that attend the sale
are larger The vigilance of the post
office department in suppressing all
enterprises that partake Of the nature
of a lottery has led to an agitation in
recent years to do away with the
Dead Letter auctions, which are as
much of gamble as anything ever
devised in the lottery line. But the
ca1ac of unclaimed narceIs at DIIhlic
auction are directed by law, and there
is apparently no way in which they
can be abolished except by repeating
the statute.

tured in a store at Kakaako by the
proprietor. who was awakened by
hearing the sound OF the combina-
tion OF HIS safe being manipulated.
Although nothing was stolen from
the Japanese, the native has con.
fessed to another theft that has
puzzled the police for some time. A
demijohn OF whisky was stolen from
a blacksmith's shop in Kakaako and
the owner waxed very wrath over
the proposition. 1t appears from
Kekoa's confession that he and two
other men annexed the booze, and
then when properly loaded suggest
ed that Keoka should rob the Jap
anese. 'ts
The two men who assisted Kekoa
to steal the whisky are now on the
high seas on their way to the main
land, and II is probable that cable
will be sent to stop them and have
them returned to Honolulu.
