importance by reason of the
tation of mineral wealth on
owned lands.
As head of tho land office tor
many years, Mr, Bobison has btought,
to his work the expertness resulting
from close understanding of the
duties devdlving upon < him. He
knows more about Texas lands and
land laws, in all likelihood, than does
any other individual. During a
career extending back to the pioneer
era, Mr. Bobison has conducted him-

his name is a synonym for high hon-

an asset to the state and people. He

which millions of dollars in oil roy-

manent fund of the University of
Texas. He has been a loyal friend
to public education in Texas. No

j touched the land office during his
tenure, biit on the contrary the af-
fairs of this important department
have been handled to the satisfacion
of the people. The Bo«t-Dispat,ch
