room. Nj. LOorey referred 20 his past
work and the merits 1f what ne mad
done and asked the support Of the
people by reason of his bro q public
experience He referred to the incl
dents that happened while he was rep
resentatiye, Senator and attorney
General. He said that the man who
is elected governor should have the
qualifications and the aim 10 execute
the law as 1t is. He referred to the
dope, candidates running on bus
mess platform" as Junk "as ev,denc-
ed by preceding candidates holding
the governors chair who ran upon
a business mans platform" Mr.
Looney added, that a man should
not be elected 20 this position be-
cause he was the alumnus Of
Of some university. member Of some
fraternal organization or a member
Of some particular church, but should
be only on the basis Of his knowledge
of State affairs and the confidence re-
posed in him by the people that he
be governor by principle. and up
on the record they had made in the
past
Mr.. Looney also spoke of the dan
gers of allowing a measure giving
the State authority and right to pur-
chase lands for the homeless "The
homeless man has been a problem in
ff,-ss -.
luton had been offered" exclaimed
Mr.. Looney, and continued, | am
opposed 10 the law giving the State
this right, involving an unlimited ex-
penditure Of money and an enorm-
Gus Indebtedness. First, because 1t
IS socialistic; and because 1t puts the
State in q position of buyer and sell
or of lands" In solution of the above
problem, Mr.. Looney said he bellev-
ed that II a similar course must be
done or followed 10 relieve the home
situation that he believed that the
State should exempt loans from cap
iialists or others whose money was
lent for home purchasing. He claim
ed this would give the borrower the
benefit Of the tax exemption and not
the man who loaned his money, as
the rate Of interest would be low.
This plan offered was compared with
the present system Of the Federal
Reserve Banks.
Mr. Looney alsO advocated some
measure Offering inducements to cot
ton and wooden mills. "Our forefa-
thers some fifty years ago followed
this plan. They gave sixteen sections
OF land as a bonus or inducement for
the building of one mile Of railroad"
said Mr.. Looney He suggested that
the inducement for these mills to
be located in Texas should be a tax
exemption or something similar.

The South Plains country will be
in the finest condition imaginable TO
invite people 20 come here this fall,
and there will be great field for de
velopment before US. II will be a
time for real work of the organiz-
ed bodies OF this section, and now IA
the time for organization and team
work, in lining things up for bigger
things this fall.
The Lubbock country is in fine
shape now. True there has been some
hais damage. and this we notice has
been all over the western half OF the
State, and this damage Is no more se-
we're than many other things that have
occurred in other sections Of the
State, such as wind storms, floods,
etc. and crop conditions, taking them
as a whole, could hardly be better.
There will be a great crop raised
here this year. and land values Will
be appreciable probably as never be-
fore in the history Of the South
Plains.
Lubbock, as is acknowledged by
people who are anyways familiar
with the true conditions is geograph-
ically advantageously located and
with the several railroads in 10 this
point. with a splendid chance Of in
creased railroad facilities in the very
near future there IL no longer any
doubt that Lubbock is TO be the real
city Of the Plains country, and there
fore the country surrounding this
city for many miles around will be
in demand. when the people know
these to be facts, and all that viii be
necessary for this 70 be made plain
TO them is to get them 70 see this sec
ton. In order to do this, Il is neces-
sary that we maintain strong com
mercial club organization, We have
the organ ization. and It has IN the
past been Of great benefit 20 the town
and surrounding country II has not
had the financial support that Il
should have had. and has been IN
manner Handicapped On this account.
Al this time the chamber Is getting

acres Of crops have been practically
assured BY The precipitation Of late
days. and there win probably be the
biggest crop gathered IN this section
