HAWLEY MAY
 SUCCEED GOULD

A dispatch sent out from New York last night says:
 George Gould's retirement from the presidency of the Missouri Pacific is known to wait only upon the selec- tion of an able successor, satisfactory to the Gould and likewist to the bank ing interests. The Goulds have al- ways been friendly to Edwin Hawley, and it is most probable, in the opin- ion of leading financiers, that they would prefer him to any other man as their successor in active control of their inherited properties. Kuhn, Loeb & Co.,, are believed to have the Missouri Pacific holdings for sale that they took off the too heavily laden shoulders of the Pearson syndicate last year.
 Whether MT. Hawley is considering the purchase of these shares or not will, of course, remain doubtful until some positive action has been taken, since it was never the policy of either Hawley or Kuhn, Loeb & Co.,, to dis close their plans before they were practically accomplished. The chances however, greatly favor the idea that Hawley will be the next head of the Missouri Pacific system. His syndi- cate already controls the Missouri, Kansas and Texas, the Clover Leaf, Chicago and Alton, Iowa Central, Min- neapolis and St. Louis, Chesapeake and Ohio and the Hooking Valley systems.
 If MT. Hawley should be disposed to accept the helm of the Missouri Pacific it is believed that he would not make many changes in the Jef- fiery policies in administration of the property. His selection as president. however, would be in conflict with the laws of some of the Southwestern states

 It's mighty short step from modern civilization to the natural impulses of ancient savagery. If you don't believe it just watch some time, and you'll see small boy-or grown man-dis- cover q rabbit.
 The first thought that comes into his mind is to kill the rabbit Quickly he searches his minI to see wEere d weapon can be found
 Tho second thought is to secure a rock to throw at it. just as some cave man might.
 X man finds snake coiled in the road It may be harmless snake. but it's a snake, and therefore his primitive instinct calls upon hin to kill it.
 A weapon. He seeks about for a club. just as his ancient. skin clothed ancestors would have done. ana har- ,u~ secured the club. he diSpatcls,s inc snake. his soul singing with tI' ulnph.

T0NEY TALKS ON
 SALARY BILL Author of Jefferson County Measure Says it Will Be
 Passed. TO HAVE HEARING Monday Night and Taxpayers and Or ficials of This County are
 Inyi.ed.
TO HAVE HEARING

President H. K. Toney, of the State
 Senate, author of the Jefferson coun- ty salary bill, which is to be consid-
 cred in the Senate probably the con-
 arrival in the city for a brief stay
 with his family that as yet no opposi-
 tion had developed to the measure and
 in all probability he would secure it's
 passage without any serious resist ance son the part of the people of this county, whom he says are almost un-
 animous in favoring it's adoption, or
 the county officials.
 q have had the bill referred to the
 judiciary committee of the Senate and
 the hearing on the measure will be
 held Monday night said Senator To- ney in discussing his plans. T have
 extended an invitation to any of the | taxpayers of this county who would | like to come before the committee on | that occasion 10 present argument either for or against the bill. The county officials are also welcome to appear before the committee to pre- sent any argument they see fit for or against the salary system.
 'T have specially invited Represen- tatiyes w. B. Pinney and c. D, McAI- lister to be present, as we'll as Judge Kerwin, who favors the bill as drawn. I will represent the people of Jeffer- son county at the hearing. AS yet Representative Pinnsy nor McAllis- ter have made known their stand for or against it, as far as I know. Representative Kerwin has spoken in favor of the bill and will support it in the House. All of the Jefferson county represtatives in the House have been provided with copy of the bill, which was given them on the day it was presented in the Senate. They cannot say that they have not been consulted on the measure.
 'I am going to pass this salary bill. It is a liberal one and ma jority of the members of the House are pledged to support it. They have reviewed it carefully and find that it is liberal and in the interest of the taxpayers. The Senate, of course, will adopt the law, for practically all of the enators favor a salary sys- tem.'
 Senator Toney said he would prob- ably remain here until Sunday night. If it is necessary and opposition dev- elops at the hearing that might have a tendency to question his motives in urging the passage of such meas ure, Senator Toney will probably call mass meeting in this city for the purpose of ascertaining whether or believes now that the taxpayers as a rule favor the adoption of the county salary bill The officials at the court house are known to be opposed to the measure, generally speaking, owing to the fact that it is made effective upon passage. and in some instances. it is claimed. the salaries and allow ances for office help and expenses are not large enough to insure sufficient service on the part of the county off, cials.
