pleasant experience for the men. The
weather was ideal and the soldiers en-
jOyed the hike in the dark immensely.
The troops covered II miles the first
night, and after resting during the day
made the last hike of Is miles be-
tween six o'clock in the evening and
one O'Clock in the morning.

The following letter was sent to Gen.
L. T. Richardson by Mayor Charles
Alves at the conclusion of the encamp-
ment at New Braunfels:
General L. T. Richardson, Camp
Landa.-Dear Sir: AS mayor of the
city Of New Braunfels I desire to eX-
press to you, and through you, to your
officers and troops, the satisfaction and
pleasure enjoyed by our entire citizen
ship in having the Wisconsin troops in
our city during the encampLlent here.
| am pleased to say that no finer body
of men have ever visited US and the
Wisconsin troops have won our lasting
regard and high esteem by their sol
dierly bearing as manly men.
''It is especially pleasing to say
have no knowledge of either rOwdyism
or intemperance in any of Y, ur men, a
fact which you and the citizenship OF
your state should alike be proud of.
LAS all Texas welcomed you and
your brave men when the war cloud
for brief time Swallowed our country
so again would we of New Btaunfels
and even more gladly welcome the
manly Wisconsin men as civilians in
our midst, when the sunshine OF peace
has again kissed our fair land.
Hoping that both you anu your
troops may return safely to the Jeace
full confines of your own great state
and trusting that this brief acquaint-
ance of Texas and Wisconsin may tut
strengthen our common bonds Of pa
triotism, amity and good will, am
"Very sincerely yours,
"CHARLES ALVES, Mayor"
The officers of the Wisconsin brigade
are particularly proud of this unaskel
Endorsement as there were comments
of q far different nature at the con.
clusion of the encampment Of other
troops at Landa Park.

teen counties heard from gave Hull
1925 votes against 10000 for Harring-

rington's earlier lead was cut down by
returns from northern counties 1t is
now certain that the final primary
election returns will not make any
changes in the balance of the repub-
lican state ticket. Gov. Philip will
be re-nominated by vote about equal
to the number of ballots cast for his
two opponents. VIM. H. Hatton and
T. e. McGovern. Edward f. Dithmar,
for lieutenant governor; Henry John
son, for state treasurer, and Walter c..
Owen for attorney general, all have
safe majorities. Supporters of Gov.
Philip claim that republicans nom
mated for the state senate and assem-
bly, include Is Philip adherents and
38 La Toilette men. In eleven contests
the result is doubtful.
