BEST SOLUTION OF THE
LIQUOR QUESTION

Although the Lee amendments" are
pretty well known in Texas, a great
many people have not yet quite under
stood the idea and have confused them
with the quart law and various other
regulation ideas approaching it. Brief
ly stated, the Lee amendments pro-
vided for a uniform high license for
the selling of all sorts of intoxicating
liquors. Under the original bill, and
license fee for selling sprituous, vim
Gus and malt liquors was 1878, and
for selling beer only $3.50. The coun.
ty and city license fee, of course, is
added to this. Under the Lee amend
agents there was a uniform state
license fee Of $3.50, with no discrimi-
nation between beer saloons and any
other kind. To this fee also would
have been added the usual county and
city tax, which amounts, both to-
yether. to as much as the state fee,
and would have made the license cost
$500 TO have gone into any sort OF
saloon business had the Lee amend
ments been adopted. The other i'm
portant feature of the Lee amend
ments was that they provided that
mo retail liquor dealer in this state
shall permit any spirituous, ylnous
and malt liquors. or medicated bitters,
sold by him. to be drunk upon the
premises where the same are sold or
upon PREMISES under his control, or
premises leading into, or opening up
into, the house or premises where
such intoxicating liquors are sold"
In brief. the Lee amendments simply
provided for a uniform high license
and forbid the drinking of liquor OF
any kind on the premises where sold
or adjoining. The quantity did not en-
ter into the transaction-a man might
buy anything from a drink to a gal
lon, but he bad to take it off the prem
ises to drink it. And, we repeat, that
with one or two additional provisions
the idea embodied in these amend
ments offers the best solution Of the
liquor question outside of constitu-
tional prohibition.-Wills Point Chron-
icle.

"Alma, Where Do You live|

"Alma, Where Do You liVe?"
The continental musical success,
Alma, Where Do You Live?' which
scored such a great hit in Paris, Ber-
lin and other European cities, will be
seen for the first time at the Colonial
theater Friday night, November H.
The book is by Paul Herve, the music
by Jean Briquet and the Engllsh
translation is by George v Hobart.
The comedy is said to be of the most
wholesome variety; the melodies are
of the haunting kind. The Alma
" altz. which runs all through the
play, is said to outrival The Merry
Widow" waltz. Nanette Flack
Charles A. Murray, Maitland Davie'
and splendid cast of players will be
seen in the different roles.
A number of Bryan people saw this
attraction in Houston Monday night
and all pronounce it great. Reserve
those seats today, for you can't afford
to miss this sterling musical comedy.

IDAHO GOVERNOR
DEM0uNcEs TAFT
Says Pardon Of Embezzlng Book
keeper Has Brought Justice Into
Dsrepute and Will Rankie
in Minds of Citizens.
[By Associated Press.l

Boise, Idaho, Nov. 15.-Governor
James H. Hawiey today gave out a
signed statement addressed to the
people of Idaho condemning President
Taft for pardoning Clarence W. Rob
nett, former bookkeeper in the Ma
tional Bank Of Lewiston, Idaho. Rob
nett was convicted of embezzling the
banks funds and sentenced to ten
years in the penitentiary, but never
entered on service of his sentence.
Governor Hawley says:
II am not surprised at the pardon,
although it is fact that no act ever
done in connection with the courts of
Idaho has so borught justice into dis
repute and weakened the courts in
TIE estimation of the people. The in
justice of the action of the president,
inspired without doubt by special
prosecutors, will long rankle in the
minds of the citizens and inspire them
with wholesome contempt for such
disgracefui methods"

TEXAS A. g. M. COLLEGE
NOT A REFORMAToRY

BY reason OF its isolated location
A. & NJ. College is able to exercise
effective oversight over the student
body. The authorities do not under
take to restrain the liberty of the stu
dents more than is necessary in Sc
curing good results in scholarship and
Each student is expected at
all times to conduct himself as a gen
tleman, and to attend promptly and
faithfully to all his duties.
Students are not allowed to leave
the college grounds, either to visit
neighboring towns or their homes,
without first securing a furlough from
tie commandant of cadets or from
the president. Such furloughs are not
granted except for urgent reasons.
The college is not reformatory. 1t
encourages the attendance of young
men who have serious purpose and
who really wish to secure thorough
chronological training. The faculty
will do everything in its power to as
sist every cadet, both in securing d
sound education and in forming cor.
rect habits, but will not tolerate the
presence of young men who evince a
determination not to study and not to
comply with reasonable regulations.
Students who fail to apply them
selves or to conduct themselves prop
erly will be warned. In each case
their parents will be notified of their
shortcomings. If, after full warning tc
the cadet and to his parents, improve
ment does not take place, the faculty
may suspend the cadet for longer Of
shorter time, or may dismiss him a
their discretion.
In order to keep parents systematic
ally informed concerning the progress
of their sons, reports showing elias
standing and records of conduct ar
sent from the deans office at the EN-
o. each term.

GETTING the Eank's Help.

Financial ability is not alone the
power of getting moneyed mems ears
and interesting big capital" The
bank is the bulwark Of small business
Given an enterprise that has legiti
mate excuse for being and available
assets, II it is backed by men Of integ
rity. 1t can always command the sup
port of its bank for working capital
Yet 1t is astounding how many small
businesses start without even confer
ring with a bank or banker. This Is
mistake The man who wants to
finance small concern successfully
should get acquainted with his bank
ers. keep them in touch with the bust
ness and afford them every opportunity
TO analyze its condition. There Is ne
finer security than the confidence OF
your bank, and the cost of getting cap
itaI in this way is very small indeed
compared with the cost Of underwrit
