WINTERS TRIAL OPENS.

Newcastle. Ind. July iO.-Dr W. A.
Winters. his wife and w. II. Cooper

commit felony. The indictment rose
from the finding OF stains on some I'M

ago. The stains were caused by hui
man blood. the chemist reported. and
the belief Is that Catherine was muir
dered and the body burned by the
three now on trial. Cooper may be
cleared OF the charges, for 1t has been
shown he was a boarder at the Win

The above is not written In any
spirit OF bitterness. but merely be-
cause we believe the iaerview ia such
a gllttering mass OF misrepresentation

fact, there are many in Bryan who
will testify that we did that very thing

let all the facts be known. but let's
be sure they are facts before giving

What Are the Facts7

The above is pretty rich reading
and is further proof of the old adage
that one must leave home to learn
the news. It is spoken, mot like the
Scribes and Pharisees, but as OF one
having authority" 1t makes short
shrift of the Democratic vote of Bra
zos County, and the remarkable thing
about II is, it is done by a man who
does not even affiliate with the Demo

THAT HEWITT INTERVIEW.

Lester B. Colby in Houston Chronicle.
L. NJ. Hewitt was in from Bryan yes
terday. Mr.. Hewitt has for years been
commercial secretary at Bryan-and a
few other things that stamp him as
a man OF weight in his community.
He has bristling black moustache,
a piercing eye and determination
that is recognized. When they want
anything done up Bryan way they gen.
orally get Mr.. Hewitt to do it.
Last fall when the Brazos river rose
too well, the people of Brazos County
selected Mr.. Hewitt to be the chief OF
the forces of succor. Seeing him in
Houston, his idea as to the political
situation thereabouts was naturally
sought.
'How's Colonel Ball running up your
way?" he was asked.
Running? Eh?" he said. Nobody

j. u. Crockett, an alumnus OF the

fessor OF civil engineering at that
school. has resigned his position at
the college to accept the office OF en-

EFT has gone to Mckinney to take

Soon after his graduation at the
college In 1909 Crockett went TO Old

engineering work for two years. Dur
Ing that time he worked on some OF
the biggest projects ever planned In
Mexico. One project he was in charge
OF was the installation OF a $4,000
sewerage system. When he left Mexi.
co he returned TO the A. q NJ. College
where he has been since.
Crockett received the degree OF
bachelor OF science In civil engineer

mercial Club but failed to state there
had been a recent change in secre.
taries.
In the outset the writer wishes to
state he is for Tom Ball, and this an.
swer is no defense of Ferguson, butthe
interview is such a mixture OF glaring
inaccuracies and Misrepresentation
that we believe II discredit to Brazos
County and her people, who are cour.
teous II nothing else. Regardless of
whether they intend to vote for a man
or not, they are never guilty of dis
courtesy. Not only that. but the in
terview holds up to the ridicule OF
the great State Of Texas one OF our
best and biggest hearted men. A man
whose charity, whose love for his fell
bowman knows no bounds, man who
for fourteen years was mayor OF
Bryan-Hon. Cliff A. Adams.
The interview says Brazos County
has $500 votes and divides them 2,200
for Ball, 300 for Ferguson. As mat
ter of fact there are all told 2,140 poll
tax receipts and exemptions issued
which means about 800 votes. How
these 1900 votes will be divided no.

true, Balls majority cannot be any

SENATOR ROOTS RETIREMENT

Mr.. Roots unqualified determination

close of his term next March VIII DE
received with sincere and profound
regret in all parts of the country, ana
among men of all shades of political
opinion. Ability such as his, devoted
as IL has been for the last fifteen
years, to the highest task OF National
government, is too rare and too valua-
BILE to the country to permit the ap-
preciation Of 1t to be limited either by
sectional or by party lines. AS Secre-
tary of War under President Mchin-
lev. he did a great work In the reor'
SANITATION of army methods; as Secre'
tarv Of state under President Roose'
Welt he was directly and personally
instrumental in bringing about a great
advance in our relations with the
South American Republics; In the SEN
ate he has done more than any other
man during the term of his service TO
maintain the high traditions OF that
body. His retirement will be heavy
loss to the public life of our country;
nor does there seem to be on the
horizon anybody who will fill place
resembling that which he has occu'
