JUDGE WELLS' CANDIDACY
. Speaking of the various candi-
dates for the position of governor
.ofthe greatest state in the union
xCXas and the haste which a
majority of them seem to think
necessary in laying their claims
.before the people the Laredo
Times has the following regard
ring the candidacy of Judge Wells:
'. "It is quite awhile since Judge
Wells announced through the Hon.
Jeff McLemore his friend and
.partisan that in due time he would
be a candidate for Governor Aside
from this public statement Judge
1 Wells has been absolutely silent.
.Such silence has he maintained in
fnri. ihnt the oublic generally only
remembers dimly that he is in the
junniug. He did not desire to
" launch a political campaign upon
the people n year and a half before
the election. He has been asked
to apeak out but he has steadfastly
refused. He is none the less a
candidate or will be at uch time
as he thinks proper and expedient.
He hits preferred to follow the
ancieut custom to remain in the
background until such time as his
ideas of propriety permitted him to
step forth into the arena.
TlmtJudffe Wells is a power in
Texas politics no one will deny
and that his friends are legion the
.sequel will prove when his an-
nouncement comes. It has been
said of him that in the battles of
Democracy "oue blast upon his
bugfle horn is worth a thousand
men" and this has been proven
time and again in the fierce battles
for supremacy in the only danger
Spot to the Democracy in the State
the Ilio Grande border.
He has never sought office for
himself. His labors have always
been merely the conscientious per
formance of his political duties as
a leader of the State Democracy
and he has been content to let
others reao the rewaids content
that he had won victory for his
party's candidates.
Without for a moment intending
torcflect upon the candidates men-
tioned above or their methods
Judge Wells will never seek the
office of Governor as these same
gentlemen have sought it. His
friends will have to wage his cam-
oaijm and win his victory for him.
He has spent his life and his means
in waging heroic strife for these
same friends and for his party and
now when he gives the signal
htr will he some surprises for
those who heve been in the public
eye so long before the real struggle
comes. His great services to his
party his loyalty to his friends
and. above all things his eminent
qualifications for the high position
of Governor will appeal irresistibly
to the people of Texas."

cations ever known according to
book publishers was made when

freight car containing 21184 copies
of the first consignment of the new
Methodist hymnal to the branch
house in Chicago. The new hym
aial is the only oue on which the
two Methodist churches North and
South have united since 1846.

Too Much Cheese.
During one of his campaigns
"Private" John Allen stopped at a
cross-roads store. While he was
exchanging news with the proprie-
tor an old darky from one of the
plantations came in. When his
purchase of "middlin" an' meal"
had been wrapped up he started
out. At the door he paused. "Got
enuy cheese boss?" he asked.
"Why yes" said the clerk
pointing to a freshly opened can
of axle grease on the counter; "box
just opened."
The darky looked at it hungrily.
"How much?" he asked
"Give it to him for 10 cents and
throw in the crackers" said Mr.
Allen.
"All right" said the clerk fill-
ing a bag with crackers. "Here
you are."
The darky laid a greasy dime on
the counter picked up the box and
the bag and going out seated
himself in the shade of a cotton
bale. When he had finished the
crackers he ran his finger around
the box and gave it a good long
ilick. In a few moments he put on
Ibis hat and started for his mule.
( . . ...
As he passed the store Mr. Allen
hailed him.
"Well Jerry what did you think
'of that lunch?"
The old darky scratched his
head then he said: I tell you del
truf Mars John' dem crackers wuz
all right but dat wuz de ransomest
cheese I uver et!" Harper's

A curious contest has arisen in
the Adirondacks in consequence of
the attempt of William Rockefeller
the Standard Oil magnate to absorb
the village of Brandon N. Y.
into his vast private park in that
section. Mr. Rockefeller has ac
quired over 100000 acres in the
wilderness and coutrols forests
mountains lakes and rivers the
entire tract teeming with game. In
the midst of this estate Mr.
Rockefeller has built a superb
country place on Bay rond a
beautiful sheet of water.
The village above named is en
circled by Mr. Rockefeller's pos-
sessions. A few years ago it had
1200 inhabitants but the decline
of the lumbering industry caused
these to dwiudle to a small num-
ber. Mr- Rockefeller has bought
the greater portion of the village
and removed the houses thus se-
cured. But a few owners of prop
erty in Brandon refuse to sell out
persist iu living practically in Mr.
Rockefeller's park and are charged
with illegally fishing and hunting
in his preserve.
Two natives who have been most
defiant oDDoneuts of the multi
millionaire are "Black Joe" Peiea
a blacksmith and Oliver Le Mora
a veteran of the Civil War. Both
these men own land in the village
which they do not want to dispose
of. They have both been prose
cuted for trespass on Mr. Rockefel
ler's property but the damages
given have been nominal. Some
3000 signs warning trespassers
away are displayed on Mr
Rockefeller s estate and one notice
threatening him with death has
been posted.
