While these legislative triumphs are

also being won. Postmaster general

whom democracy is a religion, new

1t looks like my friend, colonel Thomas

race for governor. All the prohibition

Tor him, and many thousand anti-prohi-

Is so big and so clean that a machine
politician would have no chance against
him. The big, clean men among the ants
are apparently not willing to enter the
race.
1t will be remembered that colonel
Ball rose in the Houston convention and
made the motion to extend the floor to
me, after our opponents from Ell Paso
had endeavOred to smother the Wilson
delegation. His stand then for fair play
IS indicative of his character.
As victory came to US, after he pro-
cured our opportunity to be heard, 1 find
pleasure in contemplating the victory
that seems ahead for him. There are
bigger questions than prohibition in
Texas. nti-prOhibitiOnists can well af-
ford to vote for a man like Tom Ball,
when his election would mean the restor-

Of Texas from the rule of a machine.

many OF the stories of adventure which

known work was "The Circassian
Chief which he published when he was
81 years of age. Before his death, which
occurred in 1880, Mr.. Kingston had put
