Washington, d. c., Jan. r..—whiie
no formal statement was forthcoming at
tlie White House today, there was no at-
tempt in Administration circles to deny
that President Taft is withholding' certain
customary Congressional patronage from
those Insurgent Senators and Representa-
tives who, the adherents of the President
say, show no disposition to support Ad-
mit! .' trnt on measures.

Vit i •; Rosewater. Republican National
t ouimllteeman of Nebraska, one of th•>
"insurgent States." saw the President
this afternoon and, in an authorized in-
terview, said:
"The President said to me that he

President says there is a well-founded
custom that has become almost a rule
that in making appointments, such as
postmasters, the President should act
upon recommendations of members of
Congress In whose districts the appoint-
ments lie. This obligation resting upon
the President, however, lie feels is re-
ciprocal.
"The Republican Congressmen, he de-
clares are under a similar obligation to
nupport Administration measures recom-
mended by the President to carry out
platform pledges on which both were,
elected* The President says he has not
turned flown recommendations of in-
surgent Congressmen, but i* simply pre-
serving the status uuo to impress them
of their obligations."
SOME INSURGENTS IN LINE.
Many of the insurgents have frankly
tedd the president that they would sup-
port him in his legislative program,
which has already been outlined. They
declare themselves to be Republicans
first and last* but there are still a few
of the insurgents who seem disposed to
carry on an independent attitude, and
who are generally against everything
1hat the leaders of the party are for. To
make their position stronger, they ate
said to be willing to ally themselves with
the Democrats. Tt is against these so-
called recalcitrants that the nonpatron-
age order has been issued and, .so far as
.Air. Taft is concerned, it will stand until
the members sen fit to subscribe to the
principles of the party s legislative pro-
gram.
ASTOR SEARCH RAISES STORM.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 5.—"S'aow us why
the Treasury Department sent vessels in
search of Col. John J. Astor's missing
seagoing' yacht some weeks ago," vir-
tually asks the House Committee on Ex-
penditures, in favorably reporting today
the Hardwick resolution of inquiry.
The measure which Mr. Hardwick hopes
tt. bring up in the House tomorrow asks
the Secretary of the Treasury what ac-
tion, if any, was taken by the revenue
cutter service to discover the where-
abouts of Colonel Astor's yacht and what
amount was thus expended.

In selecting prizes for tho winners in
the second annual circulation contest
Tho Express has been careful to get
something that had attractive values and
which would grow in valuation as
tho years go by. Southwest Texas real
estate is sought today as it never was
before.
Go to any of the real estate agencies
and they will tell you that inquiries are
coming in as they have not done before
for a number of years. Texas Is on the
map and always has been, larger than
any other State in the Union, and it Is
on the map today, and particularly is
the land in the southwest part of the
State attracting attention. Not only those
who reside here, but capital from the
North and East is drifting this way as
it has not done in many moons, and
the shrewd Investor sees the prospect
that is open in this part of one of the
greatest States—not alone in the United
States—in the world. Everything is here
to make this section of tho country one
of the moat habitable places on the
globe. The man with money, who has
an eye open to what is coming, realizes v
this and he is anxious to get a foothold 1 £

The Express had all those things in
view when it selected such a valuable
array of prizes in this, the greatest cir-
culation contest ever inaugurated in this
guod old State.
WINNERS GET THE CROWNS.
To tlie winners, of course, as in all
contests, go the best prizes. This lias
been the rule since tho days—yes, and
prior to them—when Jacob worked seven
years fur the pick of the daughters of
Laban. It Is an old law of exact justice
that to the first the best is given. That
was a law with that family of history,
the Jews. Within their broad-minded
way of adjusting things the first born
had the preference, and so It has ever
been, and so It ever will be.
in the Roman races the first out got
the wreath of laurel. In this busy world
today th» inan who does things is the
one who merits the greatest amount of
attention; and he deserves it, for he
makes himself a factor in the business
enterprises of the day. He Is a part of
that commercial activity that is building
day h\ day for better things, for a
tighter grnsp on conditions, and Is mak-
ing his presence felt, just as those who
enter this contest can do by giving their
best efforts to the work they find laid

This lot is Worth |M0 today. ^
Within one year from this lime t

least it Is sure to he worth more than ^

l ive hundred dollars for naming a

sure to come at the close of this con- ?

and udd.'d to the thrill will be one of ^
the prettiest building sites in the city. ^

is
has planted crowfeet about the eyes and
sprinkled time dust on the hair? While
there is a great deal of work ahead for
those who had entered and those who
will enter this greatest of all races in
this land of sunshine and flowers, there
is a keener joy ahead than any have
realized.
Suppose you do not win the first prize!
Let's suppose again: Suppose you do
not win any prize; you will have the con-
solation of knowing that you were in a
! field «»f contestants everyone of whom
has the best blood of Texas in their vein?,
and you can't have any regrets for the
company you have been in. Again we
say. there is work and a largo measure
of fun ahead for all of the candidates
and their friends.
GLANCE AT THE PRIZES.
Let us lay aside the first prizes and
look briefly at those valuables The Ex-
press is offering as second prizes. Some-
one will get these, and on the amount
of efforts depends who will get them,
In Given* Terrace worth $250 gold. Not
a lot In this beautiful locality that Is
more than two blocks from a car line
Then, loo, there Is city water on every
lot. Do you think thLs Is worth striving
for?
In district two the second prize is a lot
In Farmington, just one block from the
public square, worth $175 today, and one
year hence, as values are looking up. it
will he worth twice that sum. isn't tills
worth working for earnestly?
Like the second prize in districts one
and two, the second prize in district three,
is atttractive and has a pleasing value.
Most anyone In Texas would have been
gratified to find a deed for such a lot
in his hosiery on Christ man morning.
This prize is a lot in Farmlngton, Tex.,
one of the new and fast-growing towns
in the artesian belt In LaSalle County.
The cash prize of this lot is $135. and the
owner will buy the lot. back at 10 per
cent advance within six months if the
winner desires to part with it. Like the
others, this is worth an effort to obtain.
Tho second prize in district four is a
lot in North Uvalde, located on a corner
between the city and the depot, and is
valued at $275. Uvalde is one of the best
towns in Southwest Texas, has all mod-
ern conveniences, including a street car
line, and real estate there is growing in
value every day. Everything indicates
this lot will be worth twice its present
value one year hence.
IN THE TROPICAL BELT.
The thriving town of Papalote, in Bee
County, contains the splendid lot that
will be given aa the second prize in dis-
trict five. This lot is In the great citrus
fruit belt that is so rapidly coming to
the front in this country. It is worth
$125 and growing in value each month.
The candidate who gets this will have
something valuable.
In the fast-growing tow n of La Pryor
the second prize in district six is located.
This lot Is worth $300. that being the
value set on it by the owner. The town
where this lot is located is on a railroad
and Is hacked by men who propose to
make it the commercial center in that
section. These facta are worth conFldcr-
Ing.
The pretty little town of Papalote. in
Ren County, contains another of the sec-
ond prizes, that in district eight. This
lot is as valuable as that offered jus a
second prize in district five. It has nil
the advantages and, situated as is it. in
a growing locality where values are in-
creasing, makes it a most desirable
prize.
The second prize In district nine is
another of those splendid building sites
in Uvalde worth $250 gold. The value of
real estate in this rapidly growing county
seat city Is rifling- all the time, and the
time is not far distant when $500 will not
buy the lot that will be given aa a second
prize in the district named at the close
of this contest.
The second prize in district ten is In
tiie famous orange belt in Bee County,
situated in the commercial center of that
county is the town of Papalote. and is a
most beautiful building site, worth to-
day $125 in gold. Like the other lots of-
fered In that locality, it will be worth
a great deal more in a short time, for
that prosperous county is fast coming to
the front as the great tropical fruit belt
of Texas.

AWAIT UPON FREDERICKSBURG.
Stonewall Wants to Know of Progress
in Railroad Building.
Special Telegram to The Express.
STONEWALL, Tex., Jan. G.—The Com-
mercial Club met Monday evening. A
report from the railroad committee deal-
ing with different propositions from va-
rious railroads was submitted. The kind-
ly feellr.g existing between Stonewall and
Fredericksburg further augmented by
Stonewalls' liberal contribution to the
Fredericksburg bonus renders it im-
portant as well as expedient to first as-
certain the progress, if any, made by the
road in view from Ban Antonio to Fred-
ericksburg.
Stonewall has three chances for a rail-
road: A line from Waring to Fredericks-
burg with tap to Stonewall, line from
Vernon to San Antonio via Stonewall and
line from Austin through Stonewall arid
Fredericksburg.
The club invited the Fredericksburg
club to attend the next meeting and pre-
sent report of projected plans and opera*
tions.
