A city man recently, visited his coun.

wishing to explain the joys of metro
politan life, said: 1--WE certainly have
been having fun the last few days.
Thursday we autoed to the country
club and golfed until dark, then troll.
leyed back to town and danced until
morning"
The country cousin was not to be
stumped in the least and began telling
some OF the pleasures Of the Simple
life" 1--WE have had pretty good
times here, too. One day we buggied
out to Uncle Neds and went out to
the back lot where we baseballed all
the afternoon. In the evening we
sneaked up into the attic and pokered
until morning"
A sturdy old farmer who was listen
ing, took up the conversation at this
point and said: II was having somt

streets were thronged with people
from all over this section, more than
usually large numbers being drawn
here by the circus, 1t was remarkable
to note the large number Of automo.
biles parked along the curb on both
sides Of Main street. For the most
part they belonged to people. from the
country, farmers of Brazos, Grimes
and Madison counties. While we did
not count them, 1t is safe to say there
were not less than seventy.five. In
our opinion this is remarkable, espe-
cially when we take into considera.
ton the strong prejudice that existed
on the part Of country people against
the automobile only few years ago
and which has not yet entirely disap.
peared.
1t shows the farmers are coming
more and more to recognize the value
Of time and that the automobile as a
time-saver Is an asset for them in.
stead Of an expense. II also shows
they are becoming more progressive,
more wide-awake, that new ideas are
taking possession of them and that a
new order Of things is to take the
place Of the old, non.progressive, out
Of date, back-woods, humdrum, deary
existence that has characterized life
In the rural districts for the past half
century. The Galveston News, in
commenting on the value OF the auto.

THE automobile is one OF the won.
ders Of the world. and II is much more
wonderful than most OF the other won.
ders. II has brought to man more
comfort and Joy than any other of his
many marvellous inventions. The ease
and suddenness with which II has
gone from country to country, con.
quering and to conquer, have never
been equaled by any other contribu.
tion to the desires and necessities Of
mankind.
ION April /, 1916, there were 1874.
$50 automobiles In Texas, valued at
approximately sli2.392 900. This is
one automobile to every &c persons In
Texas. This state ranks eighth among
the states from the standpoint OF mo.

fourth from the standpoint OF per

Mayor Thompson. revoked ten sa-
loon and cabaret licenses and one
restaurant license today and thereby
started anew the fight being waged
on him by the vets and drys.
The United Societies and the En-
gleWood Law and Order league are
preparing a city-wide campaign
against the mayors principal candi-
date, Harry B. Miller, aspirant for the
states attOrneyship. The charge is
made that the ThOmpson-Lundin or
ganizatiOn is grabbing the license OF
every saloonkeeper and cabaret own
er who won't get in line. The Anti
Saloon league, backed by the Herald,
the TTib and the Daily News, are pre-
pairing to wind up the week with bit
ter attacks on the city administra-
ton and Miller. ..r
Mayor Thompson. answers the
charge with the counter-charge that
the newspapers, the reform leagues
and the vets have joined hands be-
hand the candidate of Charley De-
neen and Vic Lawson for the states
att'y's job, John E. NoTthup.
The mayor also gave out list of
eighteen saloon licenses which. had
been restored since the primary race
grew warm on the owners promises
to be good" The United Societies
charge that no license was restored
until the saloonkeeper gave the Lun-
din ward committeeman his promise
to work for Harry B. Miller.
The charge is also being made
by the combined reformers and vets
that privileges have been given to
the Sullivan leaders in the river
wards on their promise to throw
their surplus strength to Harry B.
Miller. John F. O'Malley, Aid. Mich
aeI Kenna and Barney Grogan are
using their influence for Miller.
