Governor of Texas VetOS Recall

AUSTIN, TEX, Feb. 25.-Gov. Col quitt vetoed the charter bill for the city of Texarkana, because it con- tained the initiative, referendum and recall provisions. An effort to pass the measure over the veto failed in the house by a vote of 59 to 62.
 The message of Gov. Colquitt, who was elected by the anti-prohibi- tion-Democratic faction, said in part:
 According to my conception of our system of government, the initi- ative, referendum and recall are repugnant to the principles under lying it. The faith of the people of Texas stands pledged to the pre- servation of a republican form of government, says the bill of rights, and the power to change or abolish the constitution is subject to this guarantee only. To guard against the tran ;gressiou of the high powers of legislation by the government, the bill of right excepts out of the powers of legislation the right to establish a form of municipal government that is repugnant.
 "The initiative and referendum plan of government was we'll known and understood by the makers of our American system. It was discussed in the convention that framed our federal constitution and was dis carded as totally unfit for the republican principles of our system
 "The initiative and referendum are the dream of theoretic poll. ticians, and, as Madison tells us ] they have eyer been found incom- patible with personal security or the rights of property.
 'In somewhat different form they were the rule and ruin of the cities of Greece. After thousands of years of experience they were discarded by all able governments. Only one small nation of Europe now employs the system and it is practically with out influence among the nations of the earth.
 "The division of the powers of our government is for a distinct purpose: That one should act as check or the other, anl it is distinctly provi' ded that each department shall be confined to separate body ot registry. And that no person or col lection of persons in one of those departments shall exercise any pow CT properly attached to either of the others.
 "The provision of the TeXarkana charter herein objected to are an tagonistic to this prinCip pie of our state constitution. The charter is also objected to for the reason that after providing for the initiative and referendum plan of proposing and enacting ordinances, it provides for the recall of any elective officer. The plan of our government, in the passage of acts by the legislature, or by the legislative bodies prescribed TOT city governments, insures a hear ing to those whose personal rights may be affected by the Legislation oposed.

Rumnrs in Base Ball Circles.

It is reported that>a proposition is on foot to organize two ball teams at Morenci and two at Clifton and form a local league. This will make it possible for games to be played each Sunday at both places, but whether the rivalry and interest would be equal to that which would arise from having but two teams, one at each place, is question. The base ball matter should be taken up at once and organizations formed by which some amusement and recreation can be afforded the people of the two big camps.
 In a few weeks court will set m Clifton, and there will be great many people in town, and if game or two of ball can be pulled off it will show that Clifton IS alive and right along with the procession. There are enough good local players to form good team, and as heretofore the business men ought to boost this proposition harder this year than any other time.
 Get together, gentlemen sports and rush this matter through.

GROWS HAIR ON
BALD HEADS
Bald-headed People May Get
New Chance in Life.

In these days when youth is
the moving factor in business,
when a man makes his mark at
thirty-five and is ready to retire
at forty-five, when business hous-
eS pension the man we call "mid-
die aged" rather than allow his
tagging influence to intrude up
on the commercial rush, a bald
head is almost fatal to any
mans hopes. The following
must therefore prove interesting
to people who are losing their
hair or who are bald.
Resorcin is one of the latest
and most effective germ killers
discovered by science, and in
connection with Beta Napthol,
which is both germicidal and an
tiseptic, a combination is formed
which destroys the germs which
rob the hair of its nutriment, and
also creates a clean and healthy
condition of the scalp, which
prevents the development of new
germs.
Pilocarpin is a well known
agent for restoring the hair to
its natural color, where thu loss
of color has been due to a dis
ease of the scalp. Yet, it is
not a coloring matter or dye.
This combination of curatives
mixed with alcohol as a stimu-
liant perfects a most effective
remedy for hair and scalp troub-
les.
The famous Rexall "93" Hair
Tonic is chiefly composed of Res
orcin, Beta Napthol, and PHO
carpin. 1t helps to make the
scalp healthy, to nOurish the
hair, to stimulate the follicles.
Where the head is already bare,
it enters the follicles, revitalizes
the roots, supplies nOurishment,
and stimulates a new growth.
We want you to try a few
bottles of Rexall 1913" Hair
Tonic, Oh our personal guaranr
tee that the trial will not cost 20
a penny if it does not give you
absolute satisfaction That's
proof of our faith in this
remedy and should indisputably
demonstrate that we know what
we are talking about when we
say that Rexall ''93" Hair Tonic
will grow hair on bald heads,
except, of course, where baldness
has been Of such long duration
that the roots of the hair are
entirely dead, the follicles closed
and grown over, and the scalp is
glazed.
Remember, we are basing our
statements upon what has already
been accomplished by the use of
Rexall 1913" Hair Tonic, and we
have the right to assume that
what it has done to hundreds of
others it will do for you. in
any event you cannot lose any
thing by giving it a trial on our
liberal guarantee. Remember,
you can get Rexall Remedies in
this community only at our
store--The Rexall Store. Cren-
