what we are aiming at, especially for
Orange, perhaps it might be best to
refer to it, if you care to, in your
paper.
Continuing, he said: "It has come
to me that on account of the Fris-
Cp Railway operating a motor car
many passengers arid many traveling
men, commonly called drummers,
are kept out of Orange, mainly be-
cause of the lack of proper facilities
for handling fctggage on the motor
car. Theise passengers and these
drummers are usually forced into
Beaumont over the Kansas City
Southern, or the Frisco operating
oVer the .Kansas City Southern. Of
course, if they happened to'travel
over the Frisco "into Beaumont that
line is not subject to any loss, but
Orange is, and ' this is why we
are going after- the Frisco for fail-
ure to furnish adequate facilities for
every class of travel offered into Or-
ange, including the necessary facili-
ties for baggage and express."
"By the way, we understand th*|
Jasper and Newton counties are
good fruit sections, and if the Fris-
co fails to fur^nsi^. %i I ^ t ^es ffl^r..
dling express also , people living in
Orange will'-be depri^Td , of the
pleasure of enjoyiifg 'this nice
fruit." ' '
"We notice that VerJ^Otisiderable
mail comes in over the Orange &
Northwestern into the Orange post
ofifce, and the operation of this
motor car may cause some delay to
the Unite'd States mails also.
"To make a JLotqftuMf short," said
Mr. Anderson, "the officers Of the
Orange & 'Northwestern Railway
are not attaching due importance to
the passenger service on that ilne,
and we are endeavoring to point
out-10 tlfem their negligence, and to

There appeared to be a strong
undercurrent for a dark horse, how

o'clock, though-ft will take two

Uncompromising -Taft leaders
hope for Roosevelt'* bolt. They are
certain that Taft would be nomi-
nated then by-the delegates remain-,
ihg.
A wholesale disruption of
Wisconsin delegation, with several
resignations threatened, marked the
entrance of the LaFollette forces
into the convention. Henry F. Coch-
em's resignation started the trouble.
It was rumored . that McGovern
might resign. Hatyety the L,aFol-
lette manager, says -that Wisconsin
will vote with the Taft force*
against Roosevelt in the plan for
a substitute temporaty roll;
There is bitter'feeling in . the dele-
gation. Hauser has" said that Wis-
consin will not follow Roosevelt in
a bolt or anything else.
The convention was-called to or-
der at ll;16 this morning by Tem-
porary Chairman Root. Th¿ second
day. of the convention , opened with
the Hadley debate on the Texa* del-
egates. He said * hjs amendment
would be carried. "We hold," said
Ha41ey, "that there are seventy-eight
delegates on the roll wh0 do not
belong there, and ask thajt ttyeir
names be eliminated, and those vot-
ed for by fourteen members of the
committee substituted. The ques-
tion affects the Republican party it-
self. There is a repeated charge of
'naked theft.' " He said tliat he did
not know whether the majority
-would agree with him that the logi
cal candidate would be presented.
The minority report was prepared
by Borah.
Henry E. Cochem, a delegate from
Wisconsin, said the LaFollette man-
ager defends the steal by the Taft
people, and * that he hM designed
to save his own self-re*pect.
The bolt probably hangs on the
result of the Hadley debate.
Chairman Root stated that an
agreement of a division of time, an
hour and a half for each side, hid
been reached. W. T. Dowell was
the first to reply to the Missouri
governor.
Mandamus' suit* by all statei
would force recognition by the vot-
ers of their ticket, say the Taft men,
who contend that a separate con:
vention by Roosevelt would not be
regular.
The talk of a dark horse is in-
creasing.

was "touched" for a small sum.
While the colonel was engaged in
a telephone conversation, the visit-
ing brother made his way into his
benefactor's office, which is located
on the same floor with the tele-
phone exchange? and finding a coat
and vest hanging on the wall there,
made a quick investigation as to the
contení^ of the pockets therein. The
colonel's watch and chain appealed
the strongest to the investigator,
and was promptly removed and
carefully pocketed elsewhere. The
Object of charity then ducked.
Returning to his office, Col. Bet-
tis had occasion to ascertain the
time of day, and great was his sur-
prise when be found his timepiece
missing. With a determination to
locate his - departed jewelry, he
promptly eritisted the services of our
efficient and' ever watchful City
Marshal Ben Stephens. After a con-
sultation with this gentleman arid the
usual campaign plans had been ar-
ranged the colonel saw a^ray of hope
and the actual work of recovering the
stolen property was begun. ••
As is customary in locating thieves,
crooks and such like, the two Sher-
lock* took up their positions at the
, T. tc N. O. passenger .depot and no
stranger succeeded in passing them
unnoticed. Finally the .object of char-
ity put in his appearance and Colon-
el Bett?s began to see visions of hit
much sought after timepiece. His vis-
ions were not deceptive for grow-
ing impatient for No, 4 to arrive,
the said object of charity carefully re- j
moVed a watch ju#t far enough' froth
his pocket to catch a glimpse óf the
time, then casting a quick and sus-
picious glance at ffiose near him,
slipped it back into his pocket and ap-
peared satisfied. But City Marshal
Stephen's eagle eye was upon him and
straightway this Officer of the,law ap-
proached the crooked individual and
calmly removed the said watch from
its qéw ¡ location. Colonel Bettis
smiled, and aftet smiling some more

an example other parties living on

to get the rate quoted it will be nec-
essary to provide for the placing of
fifty of these lights, therefore, it is
incumheqt upon every one who

in their assistance towards bringing
about this end.
Forty-eight year* ago today Presi-
dent, Lincoln signed the' proclama-
tion that freed the negroes from their

that Judge Ball addressed the grsat

with well directed suggestion* and
advice for the betterment Of condi-
