TEXAS FROWNS
ON PROHIBITION

Texas, which has handled the IL
1uor question by passing one Of the
most drastic laws in the new world,
has paid its respects in no uncertain
tones to prohibition.
In a statewide primary. not only
has the anti-prohibition candidate in
creased his lead to 10000 votes over
his opponent, but the proposed pro-
hibition amendment has been beaten
by 10000 votes!
The verdict confirms the judgment
of the people of Texas, who at the
last preceding election chose Colquitt
governor for the second time, on a
Democratic, pro-license platform.
Texas, which handles it's liquor
problem in manner to attract the
attention of every traveller who jour
neys by railroad across that state.
and tries to buy drink on the train,
has a state, county and city license
system.
The county clerk Issues the state
lively of 1915 and $1S7.50, and the
city tax collectors issue city licenses
for S1S7.50 each.
The main point of the recent pri-
mary is that Texas having gained
control of this matter through intel
ligent regulation, does not propose
to let liquor get out of bounds
the passage of a prohibitory
law. The people of Texas thereby
prove that they have gained wisdom
the mistakes of other states
in that respect.
There is something in this for the
people of the state of Washington
to think about. They would do well
next fall to follow the example OIL
Texas by voting down statewide pro-
hibition. and hew to the line with
the present liquor law, which
its local option feature. can
grant prohibition to any community
desiring it.

PACIFIC EXPOSITION

San Francisco, Aug. 19.-The citi-
zens of Colorado are backing the
man who first said. Where there's
will there's way" The first proof
of their stand came when the legis-
lature failed to appropriate for the
Panama-Pacific International Expo
sition and the people took up the
burden of participation by popular
subscription. The second proof is
provided by Architect II. w. Baerre
sen, now in San Francisco with the
plans for the Colorado exposition
building.
When Mr.. Baeresen made his first
visit to the officials of the exposition
he brought plans for q state build
ing that provided for mountain to
represent Pixies Peak and on this
and in 1t the scenic wonders of Colo
RADIO were to be shown together with
the states remarkable resources.
Mr.. Raerresen was informed that
the state and foreign buildings must
conform to more classic types of ar
chitecture and that Colorado must
conform to the restriction placed on
all OF the AZ states and territories
and 40 foreign nations thus far par
ticipating. He resisted bravely and
explained that 73 per cent Of the con-
tributors in his state had favored the
mountain building. He was told that
the mountain building could not be
considered.
Mr.. Baerresen was between the
dangers of the Grand Canyon and
the depths of the Pacific. Defeat
stared him in the face and he was
preparing to return to Denver when
he received an inspiration. Possibly
he could please the people Of Colo
RADIO and the exactions of the expo
sition.
Although he must return to get the
officials sanctions of the Colorado
commission, Mr.. Baerresen has pro-
posed to prepare plans for 1, build
ing of the renaissance type which
will meet all the exposition require
ments and then put his mountain in
side.
A state may put what 1t chooses
inside the building.
"Mohomet's Mountain" has moth
ing on the Colorado mountain.
The plans for the mountain called
for structure 175 feet long, so
feet high and S5 feet wide. The
lcenter of the structure now proposed
will have a central dome of glass o'
will be fitted with extra lights that
will flood the mountain peak rising
in the dome.
The river surrounding 1t may re
|main and the water will be pumped
from this to the top Of the peak
where it will fall in cascadesm, thu
principal fall to be known as thu
Seven Sisters Falls. The flowers ant
trees of Colorado may be reproduced
and one of her famous mountain
parks shown in miniature. Gold
silver and lead mines will be shown
as we'll as features of the Royal
Gorge.
The moving picture theatre. show
ling Colorado resources, the cafe, rest
room, room for historical relics and
the pond with Colorado trout will
be taken care of as well as in the
new as the old plans.

VERY SUDDEN DEATH
FROM PNEUMONIA
H. E. Richmond Dies After Brief ILL.,
ness at Home Of Brother
in-Law.

The friends of H. e. Richmond
who was quite we'll known in this
city, were shocked to hear that Mr..
Richmond had died at ten O'Clock
this morning from pneumonia. Mr..
Richmond had been in and around
Webster City for nearly twenty-five
years in his capacity as telegraph
operator, having worked at Blairs-
burg and about year ago came to
this city and has been working ex-
ira for the Chicago & Northwestern
railroad. Mr.. Richmond's home was
formerly at Charles City where his
mother resides, and with this ex-
ception he leaves no near relatives.
Mr.. Richmond was ffty-four years
of age and one who has always had
the sincere respect and regard of his
acquaintances. The deceased was
taken sick Sunday morning and it
was supposed at that time that he
had only a very severe cold, but
yesterday it developed into pneu-
monia and this morning he passed
away. The deceased has been stay
ing with his brother-in-law, Frank
who resides on Seneca
street, where his death occurred.

Board Meeting of Federation.

Mrs. F. E. Whitley, vice president
of the state Federation of Women
clubs, and Mrs. w. C. Burleson
member of the conservation commit
tee, returned Saturday from the
board meeting which was held in
Colfax the past week. They report
a very interesting and enjoyable
session. About seventy-five women,
representing nearly every county in
the state. We're in attendance. Re-
ports Of work accomplished and
plans for the future consumed the
committee hours. The meeting was
held at the Hotel Colfax, which ex-
tended every courtesy possible for
the comfort and pleasure of the
club women. Webster City has nine
federated clubs and four women who
are members of special committees,
and in consequence is much interest
ed in the work of the State Fedora
tion.
The General Federation will be
held in Chicago this year from June
8 to IA, inclusive. About 5000
women from all over the United
States and a number from other
will be in attendance, be-
sides the large number from Chi
cago and vicinity, who have the
meeting in charge. Plans are being
made for the greatest convention on
record. Iowa will be we'll represent
ed with her quota of delegates and
members.

Let us Have Peace.

1t is to be regretted that all is
not harmony among the short course
projectors and the directors of the
commercial league and that some
misunderstanding or unpleasantness
has developed over the actions of
some of the leaders in the league
and the short course. But the best
thing for all parties to do now is to
forget it and all get together for a
greater Webster City. Let us have
peace and keep moving majestically
toward the goal-"1O,OO0 popula-
ton in 1915" We must go some to
reach it and should not exhaust our
energies in fault-finding and bicker-
ing. The short course was a grand
success. Why not let it 60 at that ?

J. L. Kamrar for Judge.

Since the announcement of Judge
Albrook that he would not stand for
reelection some of the friends OF
Hon. J. L. Kamrar among members
of the bar are urging him to be a
candidate. With one exception Mr..
kamrar is the oldest practicing at
torney in point of service in the city
and is one of the oldest in the dis
trict. He is very popular among
lawyers and has been very success
full in practice. Just how he feels
about being a candidate the Free
man-Tribune is not informed. but at
his time of life term or two upon
the bench would properly round out
an active and suspicious career and
would be an honor to which he has
right to aspire. He is among the
best known lawyers in the state and
if he concludes to enter the contest
will be strong at the primaries. OF
course he is a republican, but since
the position is nonpartisan the ques-
ton of politics will have little in
fluence.
