OLD LONE STAR STATE
 NOW "DRY' AS A BONE

AUSTIN, Texas, July 9.-TcXas be- came officially dry" on June 26, when a bill enacted by the special session of the legislature and which prohibits the manufacture or sale of intoXicants within the state became law. The remaining saloons numbering be tween 300 and 400. according to rec ords in the comptrollcr's office, which were outside the limits prescribed by the ten.mile zone around camps oi military instruction. are thus ban ished.
 Not a saloon. brewery or distill"ry remains lawfully in operator in the state.
 Both interstate and intrastate shit ments of lquvr are prohibited by aE, other law enacted by the legislature. The only way any Texan can get l:quor withou, violating the law is Ia 20 out of the state, purchase il and lrinu it bac Himself for his personal use.
 It is expected that the constitution. ality of the new law will be tested. But since the higher courts of the state recessed for their summer vaca' tion the last of June, and do not con yene again until October, court ac' tion designed to interrupt enforce ment of the law may not be taken for several months.
 The chief contention against the laws Constitutionality is that 1t vio' latcs that provision which accords To, cal option to counties. The law permits the use of alcoholic stimulants as medicines "in case oi actual sickness" if purchased on writ ten prescription of a physician. Use of alcohol is also permitted for sacra mental. scientific or mechanical pur poses.
 Violation of any provision of the act constitutes a felony and involves q pcnitcntiary sentence of one to five years.

There is a man out for a state of flee by the name of Jim Ferguson, for Commissioner of Mines, Manufac- lures and Agriculture, and from what we can gather,.-he- is going to win. It is not definitely settled that he will have any opposition. Certain ly the present commissioner will not dare run, as he is serving a third term now and that would be out of the ordinary asking for fourth term. The people believe in giving all ambitious men chance. Jim Ferguson is a self-made man, born and reared on small farm away out in the country. He was forced to earn his way through sihool by hard licks, and now has made good. He is asking the people to elect him Com missioner of Mines, Manufactures and Agriculture.

ARKANSAS TROOPS
 IN FINE FETTLE

Governor Brough, Maj. H. F. Fred .eman, Maj. A. w. Dobyns, Col. Leon ard L. Ellis and Maj. Abner Cook re- turned yesterday morning from Camp Bcauregard, La, where they reviewed from 15,000 to 10000 men, mostly from Arkansas, Louisiana and Mis- sissippi, under the command of Maj.- Gen. H. c. Hodges, Jr.
 Governor Brough said there were about 5000 Arkansas troops, princi- pally members of the 153rd and 154th Infantry and Hath Ammunition Train. He said that they ale in the pink of condition and were all eager to go to France and go lover the top.'
 Col. c. D. James, Col. E. L. Com pore, Col. Joe s. Harris, Lieut.. Col F. Ross Smith, Lieut.. Col. Col. Rob- ert H. Carruth and the officers and men under their command, are mak- ing a most creditable record in which every Arkansan should be genuinely proud" said Governor Brough. "Ar- kansas enjoys the proud distinctior today of having the largest propor- tion of volunteer soldiers of any state in the South, there being ap- proximately 5000 volunteers from our state as compared with approx imately 5000 drafted men. Camp conditions at Beauregard are unus- ually good. The camp is located about six miles from Alexandria, is finely wooded, we'll draned, and the rifle range is especially fine. Major General Hodges enjoys the reputa- tiun of being a strict disciplinarian and Governor Brough and his staff found General Hodges and the off cers and men under his cimmand uni formly courteous.
