la fact. TO judge from the num-
erous measures from the Valley. il
u easy to see that the Valley has
become a most important unit in the
general affairs at Austin
Several measures have been passed
by the house and senate permitting
three water improvement districts in
Cameron county to change 10 water
conservation districts.
This will permit the county to is-
sue road bonds without the bonded
indebtedness Of the water districts
interfering.
Another measure creates county
court-at-iaw in Cameron county.
Also an important measure. Will
result in Judge Daney's being given
plenty Of time 10 look after the coun-
ty's numerous business affairs, grow
ing out Of the biz road bond issue.

ton Is over they just forget Il until
another election time a year and a
half or two years off.
The reason for this change is
other important business.
In the old days folks living along
the border were not so active IN a
business way as they are now.

available 10 the average resident ia

every way except TO expect and re-
ceive good service from them.
