A coterie of Texas senators are pro-
posing to redistrict the state so they
can get what they want. About half a
dozen want to go to congress and are
looking out for their own interest.
Some are guarding the interests of
Senator Bailey and will endeavor to
so arrange the districts as to reduce
the number of anti-Bailey congress
men and secure legislature that will
reflect him in 1912. Others hold the
prohibition issue paramount and want
the redistricting to be governed by
their attitude on that question. Each
of these factions is planning a gerry
mander without regard to the interests
of the people.

PARAGRAPHS CONTRIBUTED BY
COMMERCIAL SECRETARIES

So strong has the sentiment grown
in favor of instruction in agriculture
in the public schools of the state dur
ing the last few years that large per-
centage of our public schools are now
conducting agricultural classes in con-
nection with the regular work and
great benefits are accruing from this
class of instruction. The new state of
Oklahoma adopted a provision in its
constitution requiring that the ele-
ments of horticulture, stock feeding,
etc, be taught in the common schools,
and while the trainers of our constitu-
tion did not make this provision, the
directors in the various schools
throughout the state, and especially
in the rural districts, are providing for
this kind of practical instruction.

 Concerning Public Works

PARIS, France, sept. 23.-M. T. de Pulligny, the chief of the perman' ent engineering commission that the French government has sent 10 the United States, Is one of the most distinguished of the technical staff of the Ministry of Public Works. As chief engineer of the board of bridges and roads he has done important work in France. He returned re. gently from Brazil, where by permis. sion of the French government, he laid out and began the construction of the harbor improvements in Per. nambueo which are to cost sI0,000,. 900 and be completed in five years.
 Before his departure, M. de Pull. igny spoke of what France might learn from the United states.
 "It is generally thought here" he said, "that we can learn from the commercial organization of American railroads, from the methods of hand ling freight in ports and from the manner in which problems concerning large public works are solved. It is likely that the immense development of industry and transportation in the United States has originated ideas and methods which may be applied to the further development of the same things in France. Ways of do- ing things cannot be transplanted en. ( nfFxs tn hot but the useful, growing out of the individuality of one people, may be studied and often adapted to the needs of another people.

M. vetillart, General Inspector of Bridges and Roads, visited the United States last year and did preliminary work in arranging for French engineers to have opportunities for observing from the inside how great enterprises ar, conducted.

STEPHENS FINDS
 PETROLEUM IN VALLEY
Orrom sundays Daily)


 Judge William stephens, member of the Verde Valley Oil company, ar rived from Camp Verde last evening, and brings in a small supply of crude petroleum. which was taken from the surface of the company's ground on Friday afternoon, which has intensi- fled the hopes of oil land locators in that field, and created considerable interest in this city. The product is the first substantial evidence of the existence of oil in that dis'ris'. In speaking of the discovery, MT. Stephens says he began investisat- ing the tract at several points. and in digging through the surface for n few inches was astounded to sss ' flow. He filled a bottle with the product and immediately after the announcement was made there was \ revival of the excitement that fol lowed when oil was discovered in . we'll some distance away on the wingfield ranch. The drilling ma ehinery of his company is en 'ovtc from Los Angeles, and ~hen 1t ar rives will be placed in operation. He is now more than ever confident of oil being developed, and will return ,o his interests tomorrow to explore to greater depth.
