THE PROPOSITION 70 CHANGE
ROUTE Of |NTERURbAN

There is a widespread opinion that
Mr.. Gammil has proposed not only a
radical but effective remedy for a re-
tarding condition which has confront
ed the BODYBUILDING interest of the
city for a year. One prominent mem
Der of the A. & NJ. college faculty
said to the secretary of the CONNER
cial Club yesterday: Nine of us
young married men stand ready to
build our own homes on the interwban
as soon as we can get suitable loca-
tons at reasonable prices"
There has developed such a spirit
of enterprising rivalry as to possible
solution of the situation that the pres.
ident of the club decided to appoint
three committee for the work instead
of one. These committees are as fol-
lows:
Present line-F. L. Cavitt, chair
man; E. F. Parks, NJ. H. James.
Villa Maria route or extension-W.
H. Cole, chairman; ]. H. Allen, A. w.
Buchanan.
Westside routes. NJ. Edge, chair
man; F. A. Myers, G. P. Bittle.
These committees are requested to
report at the club meeting on the Sec
ond Tuesday in May. The reports are
expected to state what conditional
contracts for the sale of lots to ac-
tual house builders can be delivered
on each route, and at what prices also
any other concessions or inducements
that may be rendered.

NEW DRAINAGE DISTRICT.

There was a called meeting of the
commissioners court Monday for the
purpose of considering drainage dis
trict No. 3 This district will extend
from the end of the levee in drainage
district No. | on to the railroad at
Clay. The total cost of the construc-
ton of this addition to the levee is
$4215. An election has been ordered
for the residents of the affected area
to vote to determine whether or not
they will issue that amount of bonds.
The date for the election will be fixed
at a later day. Most of this levee has
been completed and the election will
be to make the collection of the neces-
sary funds strictly in accordance with
the law in all particulars. There are
not very many voters in the proposed
district and they are all in favor of
the bond issue, and there will, in all

impression that the Commercial Club

DDS that they played on this office.
To start with, gentlemen, just after
my purchase of this office, | received
a letter from their secretary stating
that they were about to forward copy

had with this office Knowing that
they must have had the contract with
the former publisher, called on him,
asking for particulars. He replied:
Yes, they are to send write-up, the
same to cost five cents per line"

that all contracts with former pub

contracts must be made with me if
they were to be carried out Several

him, and l wrote again, with no an

THE HEARNE DEMOCRAT AND
SECRETARY HEWITT.

Yesterday The Eagle mentioned that
the Hearne Democrat had charged
that the Bryan Commercial Club had
refused payment of a bill for adver-
Using. The statement, of the Demo
crat is in the form of comment on
an Eagle paragraph, as follows
IF every citizen would follow the
rule to keep Bryan money in Bryan,
it would help OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Daily Eagle
Perhaps this is the reason why the
Bryan Commercial Club will not pay
us the S11.45 they owe us for adver-
Using. They want to keep it in Bryan"
-Hearne Democrat.
Regardign this as a serious i'm
parchment of the integrity OF the
Bryan Commercial Club, The Eagle Of
yesterday said:
"The Hearne Democrat complains
that ii can not collect bill for adver-
Using due from the Bryan Commercial
Club That it isn't the fault of the
club or of the board of directors goes
without saying. The matter should be
Investigated. 1t is a stigma on the
city"
The facts are as follows:
In reply to a letter of Secretary
Hewitt, of the Bryan Commercial Club,
the publisher of the Democrat wrote
as follows
"Hearne, Texas, Feb. 10, 1911.
Mr. L. NJ. Hewitt, Bryan, Texas:
Dear Sir-In regard to rates for
three column write-up will say that
our usual rate is 5 cents per line ten
point, but will make you a rate of 2
cents per line provided that there is
three columns. This is very low
rate and we hope that we may be IA
vored with your business. If possible
send the matter typewriter.
Very truly,
THE HEARNE DEMOCRAT"
It will noted that in this letter Mr..
De Croix makes the rate for the adj
vertising two cents per line provided
there were as much as three col
umns. In the advertisement as pub
lished in the Hearne Democrat there
were 375 lines, occupying more than
three columns. Mr.. De Croix rendered
a bill for that number of lines, charg-
ing five cents per line, instead of two
cents. as he had proposed. In reply
to Mr.. Hewit's protest Mr. De Croix
wrote as follows:
"Hearne, Texas, April 4, 1911.

Practically all of yesterdays proceed

main point raised by him being that no
suit had been brought against the Ma

ute under which the application for
survey was made did not provide that
the court could order such a survey eH
cePl during the pendency. Of suit
OF the law was that the survey could
be ordered even before any suit being
brought and upheld the proposition that
the court had jurisdiction TO order the
survey. This morning Judge Ducker gave
his decision upon this point, overruling
the objection raised by Mr.. Campbell
and the case was then proceeded with
on the hearing of the application for an
order TO make a survey and was still IN

Somewhat remarkable In connection
with this proceeding is the fact that the
