of crime, is the question that has
been puzzling the people of this
county since the last time to date
he has broken into print.
True it is that this young man
was entirely wasting his talents
when he started out at the whole
sale numbering game. Had he
gone into the advertising business
and taken charge of the advertis-
ing department of Carter'S Little
Liver Pills or of Lydia Pinkham'S
Vegetable Compound he could
have made a fortune, or as any
one of the sensational writer's for
the Sunday Sun he would have
made a complete success, for he
seems to thoroughly understand
the game of keeping his stock in
trade before the public, and either
of these other occupations is far
more profitable and is devoid of
the risks of shooting up people
with a shot gun.
II may be that Tommy'S last
confession is the truth and that
he really is solely responsible for
the awful crime which he ac-
knowledgeS, but the people who
do believe that it is the truth, and
all the truth, are few and far be-
tween, for he has shown such a
disposition to stray far from the
, paths of truth in his other state
mentS, that his late statements
are not regarded seriously, and
they are simply the means of los
ing him the few friends who have
been staying by him. The Demo-
Il
crat man is not one who believes
in jumping on a man just because
he is down, but the strung-oui
confessions of young White indi-
Gates that he is not deserving OF
the little sympathy that he has
been getting. We have never Ia
ken any stock in his part of the
the story that he committed the
crime for revenge upon Morgan
but believe that the crime was 8
cold blooded murder in the hope:
of monetary gain. and this opin
ion seems to be more generally
accepted since ihe last confession

FlFTY.TWo NEW GINS.


Georgetown. Tex. Sept 22.--To gin
the 1918 cotton crop OF Texas required
1852 gins, according to data Just
compiled by the United States De-
partment of Commerce. This is
an increase over 1912 of ffty.two gins.
Each Texas gin last year turned out
an average OF S72 bales, while the year
previous the average was 1883 bales
per gin. Last year there were 3l3
cotton gins in this State reported idle
during the entire season. but II is re-
ported that this number win be great
ly increased during 1914, as many of
the establishments are making repairs
preparatory to opening for operation
