speech urging western voters to cast
the ballots for the support of prin-
ciples that would bring most pros

successful meeting here and at

of the hall were portraits OF Pitt
man and large placards bearing the

What is good water? Ny pur-

distilled water or that containing
practically no minerals in solu-

good guide IN such matters, il
may be stated that pure water

Believe Mr., West will Build the

Encountered Obstacles.

A telegram received from w
W. West by j. M. Elliott We'd
nesday says the former has beer
called Unexpectedly to st. Louis
and for that reason can not ge,
here this week. He is busy,
however, in perfecting all the
details of inaugurating work on
the A. K. & Z. P. line. 1t is
believed he will have his engi-
neers and graders busy along the
route soon after May 10. Our
people are getting anxious to
see this work being pushed
through and will hail the appear
ance of the work force with
much satisfaction. They believe
the line is now in the hands of
people who are determined to
push it through. The early
heavy work will be at the cap
rock section. where a tunnel,
and heavy cut and fill will be
necessary. The two ends of
the grade will merely have to
be worked over where it has
washed. -Lockney Beacon.
Mr.. West is severely criticised
at times for the apparent slow
progress he is making in the be-
ginning of actual construction
work on this road, but we are
inclined to uphold him in the eff
fort he has made to get every
thing lined up. He has had a
harder job than many believe he
has.

A Wrong impression


upon Governor Colquitt's speech
here a few weeks ago, find tina
majority of the people have ;
very wrong impression witt
reference to the State railroad
and the treatment of the con
victs during the construction .,
said railroad. The writer feel,
that he knows a great dea
more about 1.-THE survey anc
construction of this road, thar
Governor Colquitt could possibly
know, having put in about q
years of services first and last
on this road, should in-a-way en-
able the writer TO know many
things that the Governor did not
bring out.
When Governor Hogg was
elected the first term, one of the
very first things he did, was to
have a survey made of this said
railroad, from Rusk to Palestine,
and 10 or 20 miles of this road
was constructed under Hogg's
administration. When Culber-
son came into office, he made an
other survey to Palestine and
built more road. Then Savers
built some and Lanham built
some, each and every survey
making for Palestine.
When Campbell took charge
he proceeded to do the thing that
had been started years before,
and that which at that time APP
peared a very material accom-
plishment.
II Governor Colquitt will re-
establish the iron business and
the furniture factory at Rusk,
(as was running when Campbell
took charged that said railroad
will pay for itself in twelve
months.
The iron works alone at Rusk,
furnished in going and out going

daily, or about 80 car loads.
1t is figured the State would

mounted to something like $500 .
per ton (for both in and out go /
ing freight or $500 per day, /
YOU can very readily see what
the State railroad would have I
saved the State.
Now as TO treatment Of con-
victs during the construction Of
this road, Governor Colquitt ex-
nibits the red heifer" and says
this is what Campbell built the
road with.

nent. One convict moved about

BRYAN WON'T
RECEDE FROM
FIRST POSITION
PARKER is Unsatisfactory
Principles Not to Be AbaR-
dOned
(speeial to Times-Recorder.l

Baltimore, Nd, June 24.-The con-
ference tonight between Chairman
Mack and Vice Chairman Hill, of the
national committee and William Jen-
nings Bryan over the temporary chair
manship of the convention proved a
failure.
Bryan refused to recede from his
position that a progressive democrat
must be chosen as temporary chair
man and that Judge Parker's record
and views were such as to render him
entirely unsatisfactory to the progress
sive elements of the party and the
country at large.
Bryan insisted that the issue is clean
cut and one involving principles that
could not be abandoned for any expe-
diency of temporary harmony. He in
sisted that the convention must stand
for progressive doctrines and assume
a progressive attitude from the out
side.
Chairman Mack after the conference,
stated that it had failed of it's purpose.
Judge Parker's name, he insisted, will
be presented to the convention Tues
day morning and the issue fought out
on the floor.
Vice-Chairman Hill expressed the
same conviction and stated that Bry-
an would personally lead the fight on
the floor of the convention against
Judge Parker's selection as temporary
chairman.
The Bryan element is very active,
oanvassing the delegates and claim
the progressive element will control
the situation. 1t is recognized that the
fight against Parker will have tremen-
dous influence on later developments
in the convention as to the candidates
and platform.
