IN OUR
VALLEY
BY c. VI. HALL

FOLLOWING the call for a bond
issue for $4,000 for a new fill
tration plant for the city. many
in Brownsville are OF the opinion
that acting in an emergency, the
city commissioners have not gone
far enough.
BY many ii is held that the city
also needs an incinerator, and that
in building the new filtration plant
the commissioners should look far
Their ahead and build a larger plant
with more facilities than they con-
template in the present proposed
bond issue.
AS these views are expressed The
Herald will present them, as Il be-
lieves that an adequate water supply
to be OF primary importance.
Brownsville IS looking forward TO
deep-water shipping, with an at
tendant greater ratio Of increase
in population.
Should the city continue TO grow
at the same ratio IL has in the past
normal expectation is that it will
double again within the next ten
years.
THERE has been some talk Of ar
teSian water or a well supply
Of surface water. This might
be well enough as a supplemental
supply, If found feasible. But the
history OF most cities points TO many
complications where underground
water is entirely depended upon.
Many cities have lately impounded
water in lakes to get away from the
underground supply. which has
proved either inadequate or too ex-
pensive.
Reports from state authorities on
file at the city hall are 70 the eff
feet that Brownsville will find many
solids in solution IN whatever un-
foreground water she may obtain.
which will greatly add TO the ex-
pense Of purifying before using.
These few ideas are roughly pre-
sented for mastication both by the
voter and the city commissioners.
nOLITICS in Texas today enters
the home stretch of many a
heated lap. There are eleven
candidates for governor, and SO far
as the engineer Of this column cal
gather from the candidates them
selves, there are exactly eleven lead
ing in the race. Then adding up all
the figures they say represent the
number Of votes that will be cast
for them We find that the voting
strength Of the state just about
equals the population given in the
last census. II any n of them
gets over-ambitious, first thing you
know they will be showing a total
Of more votes than we have per-
sons in the state. Then we will
have to 20 through a congressional
Investigation or something.

 Assurodly the sound body is de- voutly to be wished for. but it can not be originally acquired by any srlNlng Of our own, Indeed. We arr beyond our own control in matt PTS pTcNlous to the possession Of any body at all. The most fundamcnta! o. all prerequisites 10 life is to Dc

 When We come to speak Of the soul, we tread ou more dangerous gl ound. Does it not seem as if 'omcthing in the soul were iuhcrl- ted too?

.APACHES TO PLAY
DOUGLAS ELEVEN
HERE SATURDAY

The Apaches will complete the
hardest schedule they have faced
in years by meeting the Douglas

take on the Douglas Bullpups at

Attending Physician Advises Next
Chief Executive To Remain AT
Home For Short Period

vised over long distance teie-
phone call yesterday to his
home.
A member ct the distinguished
AriZonan's family said that he is
getting along nicely, that he was up
nearly all day Wednesday, was able
to be shaved yesterday and wuuld
be out in q few days. The Interna
tional was also informed that Mr.
Hunts physician has advised him
to remain at home and keep quiet
for a few days.
Erroneous reports swept Phoenix
Wednesday to the effect that Mr.
Hunt had died, and Immediately
job hunters queried Attorney Gener-
al x. Berry Petersen for an opinion
"a whole series of UpiniUns-on the
status Of the governorShip: What
if Hunt died? VINO would be gov
ernor after the first of the year?
Opinion Given
This was a new contingency in
Arizona political contretenps. Pet
erson sought the statutes and final
ly announced: Had Hunt died Gov
erno- Phillips would have continued
as governor Of Arizona after the
first Of January, and for the two
succeeding years.
This opinion OF Petersons was
based on the fact that Hunt had
not been officially notified of his
election, nor had he received his
certificate OF election Under the
statute, Peterson held, this would
cause Phillips to succeed himself,
whereas, had the election mechan-
ism been completed, the newly elect
ed secretary OF state would have
succeeded.
