HUDSPETH MAY BE
THE CONGRESSMAN
Ell Paso May Have Its Own
Member in Congress
Soon.

Providing that congress at its pres
ent session adopts the bill allowing in
creased representation according to
the last census, then FL PaSo will have
a new congressman
In the event that governor o. B. Col
quit fails or refuses to order the re-
districting of the state at the special
session of the Texas state legislature
in August, then West Texas will not
Immediately secure another congress-
man, but it is very probable that two
congressman at large will be selected
One Of these. according to the opin-
ion of local Democrats will be state
senator Claude Hudspeth, of Ell Paso,
and the other will be lieutenant gov
ernor A. D. Davidson.
If the redistricting of the state Is
made a part of the governors call,
then FL Paso will be entitled to a con-
gresham of her own and Hudspeth
will receive the nomination, so Ell Paso
will get a congressman no matter
which way the wind blows.
Hudspeth has many supporters in
East Texas besides his supporters in
FL Paso, and is known to stand well
with the press of San Antonio, Fort
Worth, Dallas, Galveston and Houston.
Mr.. Hudspeth is at present in Fort
Worth and will not return to. FL Paso
until Thursday, SO his views on the
subject could not be obtained. How
ever, it is known that he is not averse
to accepting the nomination to con-
gress if it be rendered him and it very
probably will.

TO COST $50. 900

Clovis. n. NJ, June 5.-Superintend-
ent E. E. Busser, of the Santa Fe read
ing room system, was in Clovis Sun
day from San Francisco. He told the
local railroad mems club that he had
enlarged the plans previously drawn
for the Clovis reading room, and that
the new drawings will require an ap-
preparation of $4,000, an advance Of
more than one-third on the sum orig
inally estimated by Mr.. Busser for that
purpose here.
The erection of a large reading
room here is an absolute necessity
said Mr.. BuSser ION account of the
number of crews that lie over here
each week and because many Santa
Fe employees along the line come to
Clovis to spend Sunday"
Until the new building is erected
the railroad club rooms will be located
IN the Owen building on West Grand
avenue. Mr.. Busser promised the boys
that he would forward at once all fur

YOUTH AND RANCHER
KILLED AT CANANEA

Cananea, Son., Mex, June 5.-As he
was coming off shift after his days
labor at the smelter, Juan Gonzales, a
first cousin of Juan Cabral, aged IL
years, was shot and almost instantly
killed by an unknown man, who Is
described as being about 20 years of age.
No cause is ascribed to the murder,
but that when the murderer passed the
boy, who was in company with one OF
his co-workers, the boy said to him,
'.You had better hurry; they are JUST
ahead of you" As the man was in a
hurry, the boy thought that he was try
ing TO catch up with some others. As
the boy uttered the words, the fellow
stopped and turned back and shot the
boy through the breast. The murderer
at once took to the hills and police were
sent out after him, but after securing
the vicinity for several hours, returned,
having arrested three men who may
have been the murderer.
AnselmO r. Sicre, a prominent rancher,
and well known in the northern portion
of Sonora, was murdered by unknown
parties. Slcre was coming to Cananea
from his ranch near Janaverachi, on the
Sonora river, and was shot from behind
while on his way here in a buggy.
The body was found sitting in the
buggy in the evening at about or 9
o'clock by parties driving to town. 1t
was foInd that Sicre had four bullet
wounds in his body, all entering from
the rear. All pierced the 1unos.
No reason can be ascribed to the muir
der but it is surmised that robbery was
possibly the motive Another story is
that revenge was the cause of the muir
der, as it is supposed that some former
employe went to these means to get

The above is photograph Of the handsome residence of
W. 81 Caraway, on Main Street. Mr.. Caraway, "the
Printer Boy as has often and not appropriately term
ed, came to West Liberty from West Virginia when a
small boy and entered the printing office of his father
the late q H. Caraway, where he learned the printers
trade, and how well he learned it those who have seen
him at the case or at the stone will testify
Upon the death Of his father Wallace became the pro-
prietof Of the Morgan County News which he conducted
successfully until was taken over by the Morgan County
Publishing Co., when the Licking Valley Courier was es-
tabshed in the spring Of 1910 Mr. Caraway continued
his connection with the newspaper until about two months
ago When on account of his health he sold out entirely to
the present owners.
Wallace will be missed in the printing office for those
whose ability and experience will enable them to fill his
place are few and far between.
The Courier wishes him Success in whatsoever fed of
labor he elects to engage.

G. w Stacy.

G. W, Stacy, of Grassy Creek
whose announcement for Jailel
of Morgan county appears else
where in this issue of the Courier,
is too well known to the Demo
Gratis for US to attempt to intro
duce him, He belongs to that
old and sturdy stock of true and
tried Democrats that helped tt
build and re-organize the party
in Morgan county just after the
Civil War and there has never
yet been a time when a single
one of the name failed to rally
to the support Of the nominees
and contribute largely of their
time and funds for the advance
ment of the democratic princi-
pies and doctrines.
George Stacy is one of the best
citizens in Morgan county and
has never asked the voters for
their support; neither has any
of his people ever held an office;
and it goes without saying that
he will be a formidable candidate.
Should he be elected to the of
flee to which he aspires Morgan
county will have for its jailer, a
man whose integrity has never
been questioned and whose char
acter is above reproach, one who
will reflect credit upon the entire
community; and we believe there
is no man who would do more to
a high standard of
economy and business manage
ment Of the institution over
which he would preside and the
public property OF the county
than George.
He cheerfully invites a rigid
investigation OF his fitness for
ne Office and his claims upon the
voters at the next democratic
and pledges himself that
t nominated and elected he will |
perform the duties of the office
n an impartial and efficient
and do whatever he can
o serve the interests of the
masses and make a jailer that
very man in Morgan county
will be proud Of

The Greatness Of

as it is, in the mountains Of
Eastern Kentucky, wnere
the Anglo-Saxon blood flows
purer than any place yet
known, needs no introduce

among the richest counties
in timber and minerals.
Some OF of the greatest coal
fields known are situated
within its boundaries and
virgin forests still exist
winch has never heard ~
sound of the Yellrrihg saw
- Moodmailis axe.
The inhabitants Of this
county are nearly all law
abiding people and the good
set of officers which we have
make it possible that Morgan
county has the name of be-
ing one Of the most peacea-
bic and Iaw-abiding counties
within the confines Of old
Kentucky.
Although our soil and rail
way facilities are not as. good
as some of the far famed
blue grass counties we al
ways raise more agricultural
products than is used by our
people, and although the ma
jority of the people are poor
they have the name of hav-
ing more to subsist upon and
are happier and better con-
tented than a busy man in a
hot, busy, crowded and bust
ling city where pure air, con-
tentment and happiness is
unknown. /
Morgan county has three
Incorporated towns, West
Liberty, Ezel and Caney.
West Liberty has the name
of being the metropolis Of
the county, situated on a
bluff overlooking the beauti-
FIJI valley and placid waters
Of Licking river, with a Pop

BETTER EQUIPPED TEACHERS
The Increase Over Last Year In Nor
NAL Trained Teachers Is 236.

Statistics gathered by the school
department indicate that the common
school teachers of Maine are coming
to their work better and better equip
ped every year, that more OF them
are professional in training than ever
before. Statistics show splendid IN
crease in the number OF teachers who
are graduates OF normal schools thl
year over those who were graduates
last. More teachers are holders
state teachers certificates than ever
before, the gain this year being 70
per cent.
The increase over last year in the
number OF normal trained teachers Is
236. The proportion Of teachers with
normal training Is increasing year by
year In the past ten years the pro-
portion OF teachers so trained to the
whole number employed has increased
from 1S per cent. to % per cent.
Interest in teachers meetings is
larger by COG the number reported
last year. More than half the teach
ers employed in the common schools
throughout the entire state attended
at least one convention for teachers,
state, county or local meeting.

NAMES OF MAINE TOWNS HARD FOR
THE STRANGER
Canaan Seems to Be One That Bothers Many.
Augusty" Is Easy

Beginning in the southwest corner
of the state, Kittery folk make it a
two-syllabled word, Ktt-ry, while in
nearby Berwick, North Berwick and
South Berwick they slur the so
that the word is almost like Bur-rik.
Kennebunk, two hunks this side of
Kennebunkport," gets the accent on
the bunk, while Biddeford loses the
and most of o, making it pretty
nearly Biddy-fud. Speak it quickly,
please, with the accent on the Bid.
Up in Parsonsfield there are some
newcomers who are trying to modern
ize the spelling of the towns name
by dropping the and making it
Parsontield this in face of the fact
that the town was named after an
early settler named Parsons, and in
spite of the further fact that the
manuscript act of incorporation, to
be seen on the fourth floor of the
state house in Boston, has it Parsons
field.
Windham, Gorham, Burnham and
nearly all the other towns with that
ending are pronounced dictionary
fashion, by clipping out most of the
ha. But in Bowdoinham and Wal
than there must be no slicing OF the
ham; sound it in full. And Bowdoin-
by the way, is not Bough-doin, but
Bo-dn.
