Senate Outlines Highway Bill Amend
ment Plan, Centering Responsibility.
D o | N G S


Denver-A tentative plan for
amendment of the House highway
commission bill that may satisfy all
parties has been outlined by the state
Senate Democratic subcommittee ap-
pointed to consider the bill. The com
mittee, of which Senator John J. To-
bin is chairman, was appointed by the
Senate Democratic conference in an
effort to unite all members of differ
net beliefs as to the best method Of
administering state road funds.
The committees plan is to have one
highway commissioner with n deputy.
The commissioner is to consult the va.
rious county commissioners as to the
road appropriations to be made by the
state to each county, and then make
recommendation to an advisory board,
which is to consist of five members,
each from a different section of the
state.
The recommendation of the COM
missioner are to be approved by the
board and then by the governor. If
the board is not unanimous and dis
agree regarding an appropriation, the
| commissioners report is to be made to
the governor, who is either to approve
the commissioners recommendation
or return it to the advisory board for
| further consideration and adjustment.
The governors approval of the com
missioners distribution is to be final,
| disapproval. By such system the sub
committee believes it has provided a
check in all ways regarding the eX-
penditures of road funds, and yet con.
centrated responsibility.

JUST ~NEIGHBORS.

Tt is hardly worth while to consider
seriously the f%lamboyant document CIR
culated i'm Brownsville and Matamoros
Saturday, bearing the signature several
Tamaulipicos.' The signature is prob
ably exaggerated as the rest OF the docu-
ment, for it is not easy to believe there
are several people in Tamaulipas who
feel toward their American ~nelghbors
as the absurd person who prepared this
document seems TO feel about them. 80
far as the people of this part OF IeXas
are concerned, they entertain no anneXa-
ton schemes with respect to amy portion
of Mexico. For Mexico, and especially
that part of it which lies across the
river in the state of Tamaui1pas. we
have nothing but good will. we nave
lived by them for many. many years we
have bought and sold with them III Il
WAY that we hope has been satisfactory
to all concerned. Many South Texans
are of Mexican birth. and many more
are descended from MeXicanS. though
born on this side Of the river. It IS NOT
probable that this rather iniiahmatorN
poster will produce the results It's author
hoped il would. As for MS we have one
desire i'm the direction OF u SISTER re
public: The desire that she may be al
peace. that her children may have qlilet
and leisure to develop her wonderful re-
sources. and reap the best possible bene-
fits from her limitIess mineral deposits
her magnificent climate. her fertile SOL,
and the flocks and herds that roam her
endless pasture lands.
We nave no desire to pose as represent
ing a Colossus of the North. we WISH
rather to be considered as good nelgl-
bors and friends. This is not the Sentl-
ment of South TeXas only. but the Senti-
mcnt of the people of the United States:
and i'm this connection il may he well TO
remember that the people are not Ignored
in such a matter.

The Cedars of lebanon.

Wide World: All that now remains
Of the Cedars Of Lebanon is a little
forest Of some 400 trees, which are
rigidly preserved. They lie on a small
fertile plateau, situated at an altitude
of 6,123 feet above sea-level. The
grove is reached from Bsherreh by a
steep and winding road.
With the exception of a few strag-
glers, the grove Is enclosed by a neat
stone wall built by a former governor
Of Lebanon to protect the smaller
trees from goats.
The older trees have always occupi-
ed a position of honor in the estima-
ton Of man because Of their connec-
ton with the temple built by Solomon
and the various illusions to them In
the Bible. rg
Among the jewellers in Syria, where
forests of tall trees do not exist. the
cedars naturally excite admiration,
and a modern Syrian writer SAYS of
them that they are undeniably the
most lofty Of ali the vegetable king
dom. We know of course, that this Is
hardly the case, for the famous red
wood trees of California reach a
height of over 800 feet, while in Tas-
mania the blue gum Is almost as large
so far as height is concerned. The
cedars are actually about eighty feet
high, which is more than the height
Of the trees Of an average forest.
