HOUSTON, Texas. May 9.-What do
the people of Texas think of Albert
Sidney Burleson, postmaster-general
and political general Of the Wilson ad-
ministration? What do they think Of
the criticism which has been voiced in
other parts Of the country concerning
Mr.. Borleson's management of the pos
tai service, the telephones and tele-
graphs?

Burleson. | talked with men who had
opposed him and those who had sup
ported him in Texas politics, men who
know him intimately, and the opinion,
almost unanimous, seems to be that
II Texas had been permitted to pick a
postmaster-general 1t never would have
selected Burleson.
People here resent the imputation
that Texas has sought to dominate the
Wilson administration This has been
frequently asserted because Messrs.
Gregor, Burleson and Houston Of the
cabinet and Col. Edwin NJ, House of
the supercabinet hailed from this state.
Rather do the people say on every side
that none of these men could haze been
elected to high office. They don't
know much about Col. House or Sec
rotary Houston, but are inclined TO
have favorable opinions, but they do
know the postmaster-general and their
views are positive and unequivoCal.
1t must be said, however, in fairness
to Mr.. Burleson that the charge that
he used convict labor on his plantation

This .Hugey" was rome other than
