DELAYS County Election .

Fifteen hundred names we're signed to
the petition presented to the county
court Monday from the rural districts
and villages of the county asking for a
local option election, says the Carthage
Democrat.
A question as to whether Oronogo is
eutitled to vote separately at the election
was one of the principal reasons for the
postponement of decision. 1t is held
by some that Oronogo is so entitled, al
though the petitions presented to the
county court included names from that
place. The court will take the case up
on Wednesday.
There is no special hurry for the
county election as it can be called any
time before the state primaries in Au
gust. This will give plenty Of time tc
settle the question as to the population
OF Oronogo. 1t will only cause shor
delay.

All this, combined with his excep-
tional infl uence, makes him an object
of hatred to the aristocratc military
and bureaucratic groupes that have
hitherto had the monopoly of the kai-
ser's attention In BALM they re-
cognize not only great and increas-
ing menace to their own personal in
fluence, but also a sign and a token OF
the new order of things. To them
Balm stands as a warning of the
times when the rise of democracy
shall sweep away the old aristocratic
caste of Germany and they hate him
accordingly.
Strenuous and continual efforts are
made to encompass his downfall, but
his position is too solid and his enc
mics can only regard him with in
creasing enmity without being able to
harm him.

n. NJ. TINKER.

Homer Neville Tinker was born in
Pike County, Missouri, March 23rd,
1869
At the age of Fl years 1S9O-he
came to Texas with ambition to be-
come a banker. Without friends or
pull, but with plenty OF push, he secur-
ed a position in a bank in one OF the
county seats of this State, at $40 per
month, and in a short time was made
assistant cashier, after six years was
rendered the cashiership OF compel
ing bank, which position he held I'M
til 1900 when he resigned to organize
a bank in a neighboring town, holding
the position of cashier.
The year 1903 marked the beginning
and recognition of Mr.. Thinkers crea-
tive genius and mental eye to see the
thing to be done at nee. 1t was dur
ing this year that he accepted the
cashiership of the Washington Nation
al Bank of St. Louis, during the
Worlds Fair, and originated the
"World's Fair Money Order which be-
came so popular.
At the time the new banking law
went into effect in Texas 19O5-Mr.
Tinker resigned his position in st.
Louis to come to Houston, and was
made cashier Of the newly organized
Union Bank and Trust Company,
which bank was the first to be organic
ed under the new law, obtaining Char
ter No. One. Two years later he was
made active vice president.

THE LATE JULIAN BARNsTElN.

If it were only for the great esteem
and affection in which the Rev. |.
Barnstein is held in the general COM
munity at Dover, where he has been
minister of the Hebrew congregation
for over forty years, the deepest SYM
pathy of all would go out to him and
Mrs. Barnstein and family on the sad
bereavement which has overtaken
them. Their second son, Mr. Julian
Bernstein, has succumbed to the pain
full illness from which he has been
suffering for some time past. Living
in London, he threw himself heart
and soul into such movements as the
Jewish Lads Brigade and the East
End Work Boys Club, and was a prom
inent figure at the annual Deal Camp.
He also occupied the rank of Captain
in the First London Divisional Engin-
GERS (Territorials). Those who knew
him can speak Of him as an ideal son
and brother and great favorite with
his friends. His loss is a great blow
to his aged parents and family, and
will be deeply mourned by large cir
Gle of friends. May heaven comfort
the mourners! G. (The Rev. Prof.

PRIVATE COUNCILLOR TO KAISER
A JEW.

Berlin, March 5.-The arisuocracy
OF Germany is hurt because the great
est friend of the kaiser at the present
time, and the power behind the
throne, is plebian and a Jew. The
aristocrats are asking why the kaiser
could not have managed to choose
someone else than Herr Balm for his
bosom adviser and confident, his
guide, philosopher and friend.
Balm is the most powerful man in
Germany, aside from the kaiser, and
he is all the more powerful because
he keeps behind the scenes all the
time and never comes out into the
limelight, if it can possibly be avoided
His nominal part is that of managing
director of the Hamburg
Steamship Company, but there is no
great commercial enterprise in Ger
many with which he is unconnected.
He is credited with having the largest
income of any one in Germany.
The kaiser has offered him several
ministerial posts but he has declined
them ALL because as managing direc-
tor of the neutrality-suspicious. Com
pany alone he makes an income TWEEN
ty time as big as that of the imperial
chancellor and besides that he knows
that as the unofficial advisor of the
kaiser he has ten times the influence
that he would command as the paid
servant of the sovereign. Years ago
he decided that he would never take
office and he has stuck to that de-
cision
So dependent is the kaiser on Bal
Inns advice that he has put in a pri-
Vate telephone from both his resi-
dence to Ballin's offices at Hamburg
and never a day passes that Balm
fails once or twice, on putting his ear
to the telephone receiver to hear the
martial stentorian tones of the kaiser,
Balm is the medium through which
the emperor learns the real trend of
German public opinion. And since he
has done this he has made far fewer
mistakes than in the days when he
trusted to what he gathered from
sycophantic courtiers.
Balm is a man of business and
therefore, man Of peace. At the
present time he is working his hard
est to create a better understanding
between England and Germany and
to lessen the friction between Ger
many and France.
