TREASURER CARSON

Bright Futures Before Them.

81 believe that the State Legisla-

Jr., treasurer of the Agricultural &
Mechanical College, soon after he ar
rived in Houston Thursday. 1T
seems that the House of Represen-
tatives is favorably disposed toward
giving the institutions of higher edu-
cation in Texas the money they re-
quire for maintenance and necessary
improvements. The Senate, on the
other hand, apears to be a little in
clined to shave the appropriations
down somewhat. We placed our fig
ures as low as possible this year and
are hoping that the full amount ask
ed for will be given us.
II think that both the University OF
Texas and the Agricultural and Me-

before them. Contrary to the fire.

ported as steadily improving and il
is expected that both viii soon be re.
covered. The change in the weather
Is considered as beneficial and with
the strict quarantine the likelihood OF
development OF further cases has been
reduced to the minimum.
Aside from the announcement that
the quarantine is TO be lifted just two
weeks after it was initiated. there
was only one other development in
the situation yesterday. This was thar

effected. Following the two weeks Of
enforced closing it is assured that the
theaters and the pool rooms will do
record business when they are again
opened. The quarantine being lifted

tent that it became absolutely in
excusable, Notwithstanding the lin
tied facilities for taking care of the
prisoners.
BY way OF explanation the report
mentioned that Governor Haskell ap-
pointed Warden Reed. just prior to
the expiration of his term.
Instead OF being reformatory the
Granite institution, In reality, was
a penitentiary, the committee found.
1t Was created for the housing of
convicts between the ages Of 10 and
25, but the committee found old and
hardened criminals there, who had
been transferred from the McAles-
ter penitentiary and thrown in the
same cells with first offenders, mere
boys.
Immoral practices were prevalent
in the institution, said the report
and little effort to checy them was
made by the higher officials. The
deputy warden went so far as to re-
sent complaints against this condi-
ton and an aged chaplain was found
to have lost his position because
he protested against the lack Of any
effort to reform.
The deputy warden in actual
charge of the prisoners was found
to be rough man and of such
character that the chaplain and sew
eral guards who sought to aid in the
educational and religious training OF
younger prisoners, were repulsed in
their efforts and not permitted to
continue.
The board of control made no ef-
fort to inform itself of the real con-
ditions, said the committee making
| it plain that the blame was divided
between the wardens and the man
aging board,
Besides the dismissal of the ward
ems, the committee recommended the
| transfer of all prisoners to the Nc
Alester pentitentiary until the con-
ditions at Granite could be RENE
died and more sanitary provisions
made to house inmates there.
