Republican Nominee for Prothonotary.
Sharp r. Maxwell has been Through
the mill' before, so to speak, having been
elected to the office of Sheriff three years
ago by very decided majority, and we
question whether there is single voter
who gave him support then but that Is
proud of the fact now, and who will be
willing to try him out again in the office
of Prothonotary. Mr.. Maxwell made a
fine record as Sheriff, and his conduct of
the Office for which his party has nomi-
mated him will be on the same straight
forward line, and the same uniform
courtesy will be extended to those who
have occasion to transact business at his
office. His experience in the Sheriff7s
office will stand him in good stead in his
new position. Practically he has no op-
position. the Democrats, up to this time,
having no nominee for the place, so that
his election is practically assured, COM

Wade II. Brszee was born in Eldred,
Nick can county, 80 years ago. When a
mere boy he entered a kindllng wood
factory and grew up with that industry,
mastering the business in all its details.
Ten years ago, while In the discharge OF
his duties, he had the misfortune TO get
caught in some of the machinery, so
lacerating his left arm that it was neces-
sary TO amputste the arm near the
shoulder in order to save his life. AS
soon as he was able he resumed work in
the factory, and by indomitable pluck
and perseverance made such advances in
the business that he became foreman OF
the plant, and as such assumed oversight
of the large establishment at Kellettville,
where a large force of men is employed,
all of whom are his wsrmest friends. As
an evidence of the esteem in which he is
held at his home it may be stated that
four years ago when candidate he re-
ceived all but 0 votes at Kellettviile, and
at the recent primaries he had all but 4.
Mr.. Brazee is married and has family ol
two little girls to brighten his home. He
is man of good business qualifications
and will make very careful, painstaking
and efficient treasurer, with whom it will
be pleasure to do business. A vote for
Mr.. Brazee is vote to give a helping
hand to a worthy man who will greatly
appreciate every effort that is put forth in
his behalf.

MINERS HOLD ELECTION

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 4-One Of
he hardest fought campaigns for IN
ternational officers in the history Of
the United Mine Workers of America
closed today. The election will be
held tomorrow, and as the candidates
for president are the same men who
contested for the job last year, more
than usual interest has been mani
tested in the struggle by the coal dig
gers of the United States and Canada
John p White, the incumbent, has
been waging a determined campaign
for reelection and declares he is GER
tain of victory. Thomas L. Lewis, the
predecessor of White, is running for
the presidency again. Since retiring
from the leadership of the miners Mr..
Lewis has been digging coal at Bridge
port, Ohio, making good his promise
that if he were to appear before the
miners again as candidate he would
come right from the pit" and mot
sell the knowledge have gained as
an officer to any coal company"
In speaking of the expiration of the
wage scales next April in both the
bituminous and anthracite fields, Mr..
Lewis in his speeches to the miners
has said: The miners of this country
are facing a sitaution identical with
that of six years ago, when they
walked up the hill and turned around
and walked right down again. This
time it will be different. If the miners
think they ought to have 20 per cent
increase, or even 40 per cent in
crease, they ought to get it, and |
think they can get it,"
The officers of the union to be elect
ed tomorrow will take office on April

Miss Johns has served about a year

most efficient and capable officer. a
handsome police revolver and badge
made of gold were presented to Miss
Johns when she took office on January
|, last. Since then she has taken part
in a number of important cases. She
has an automobile, which has kept in
readiness to speed to any part of the

STATES VALUES INCREASE
OVER HUNDRED MILLION

Austin, Texas, Dec. 4.-The state
comptroller has just completed a pre-.
liminary compilation of the total as
sessed values of Texas. This shows
an aggregate of $2,515,5S3, 541, which
is an increase of $127,O94, All over last
years valuation and of the prelim.
mary estimates of over $30,000,000.
Under the valuation given with a
II per cent ad valorem tax the gross
tax collections for general revenue
should total $3,01S,713, but it is cal
culated that 20 per cent is necessary
to be deducted to cover cost Of collec-
ton, etc. That would decrease the
total yield by $6O3,742, leaving net for
the general revenue fund $2,414,97l
The foregoing is supplemented by
franchise taxes, gross receipts taxes,
intangible values and fees collected
by the various state departments,
With school tax rate of 16 2-G
cents on the 800 valuation, the gross
income would $4,192,657, but with 20
per cent deducted to cover cost OF col
lection, approXimating $S3S,531, tho

The average wage of British rail

The report, copy of which has
gone to each member of the board
contains the following recommends
ton:
after careful consideration of the
various types of buildings, we recon.
mend the following for the college: A
one-story and basement building to be
used as dining hall, large enough to
accommodate about 1900 students, and
built so that additions can be made in
the future without marring the archl-
tectural appearance of the building,
and one-story and basement build
ing to be used as a kitchen, bakery,
etc. large enough to prepare food for
$500 men, and connected to the din
ing hall by three passages, the base
ments to be used for storage rooms.
We recommend that all rooms be
large and airy, also absolutely sanitary
and as nearly freproof as possible,
and that the latest and best equip
ment be Installed in the kitchen. We
also recommend that a two-story build
ing be erected to be used as resi-
dence for the steward and as place
for the meetings of the board of direc
tors. And further, that suitable quar-
tiers be constructed so that the stew
ard can secure and retain sufficient

RED CROSS SEALS

Uncle Sam joined forces with the
/ Red Cross white plague fighters whel.
the postoffice department authorized
I the sale of the Red Cross Christmas
seals in every postoffice in Texas.
This is the first time this permission
has been granted
Governor Colquitt has directed that
all mail matter sent out from the eX-
ecutive office should carry a Christ
mas seal. The mayors of the various
cities are expected to follow the gov
ernor's example.
The officers of the Christmas Seal
Campaign Committee held an impor-
tant meeting this morning at the eX-
ecutive mansion in Austin. Those
present were Mrs. o. b. Colquitt, state
chairman: Miss Kate Daffan, vice
chairman: Mr.. r. J. Newton, executive
secretary; DR., Ralph Steiner. state
health officer, and Gen. w. R. Handy,
treasurer.
Great interest is being expressed by
the Texas cities and towns. over one

More are being heard from hourly

mont on the east, and from Dalhart

vile in the south, reports are coming
of the organization of committees to
sell the Red Cross seals
Crawford a town of five hundred
population in McLennan county, has
the honor of being the first place in
Texas in which Red Cross Christmas
seals were placed on sale this year.
Credit for this is due Mrs. Felix H..
Robertson of that city, whose tele-
graphic acceptance of Mrs. Colquitts
appointment as local chairman was
the first received. San Antonio Sc
cured second place, a telegram from
Mrs. Eli Hertzberg of that city arriv-
ing five minutes after Mrs. Robertsons
message. Already spirit of rivalry
is developing. Crawford challenges
San Antonio to sell more seals, per
capita, of population, than it can, ana
San Antonio promised to do so.
Dallas and Fort Worth, Galveston
and Houston, are pitted against each
other in a friendly rivalry to Guido
each other in the sale of seals.
The children are being enlisted in
the campaign. Miss Frances Urban OF
Rullard ordered a thousand seals to
lie sold by the Junior Leaguers of the
Methodist church. Schools in various
cities are being organized to aid the
committees of women.
Mrs. o. B. Colquitt received the first
81 for the purchase of seals, from d,
w. Boliver, editor of the Morgan
Mirror.
The possibility of selling over a mill
ion seals in Texas appears to be very
good. Thousands of seals are being
sent out daily.
