TUNGSTEN LAMPS
"Daylight at Night "
k carbon filament 32 C. P. lamp consume IIS watts per lamp hour
A Tungsten 32 C. P. lamp consumes 40 *ntts per lamp hour
Saving In the Tungsten - - - 72 watts per lamp hoar
Saving for 800 hours 57,600 or 57.6 kilowatts.
If current costs 10c per *• w. the saving Is $5.76
If current costs 20c per t w. the saving is $11.52
The first cost of Tungsten lamps as compared with carbon
filament should be a secondary consideration on account of the
vastly superior Quality of Light it gives. It more closely ap-
proaches davlight than any other artificial light; but just think
of the actual and tangible saving in the cast of current as shown
by above figures which are thoroughly accurate and reliable.

Maids and Matrons With Mrs. Craw-
ford.
The initial meeting of the newly
organized Maids and Matrons had for
its hostess Mrs. K. T. Crawford on
Saturday afternoon. There was % dis-
tinct flavor of the enjoyment Mrs.
Crawford knows so well how to
create in her home, thruou: the after-
noon Mrs. E. H. Helen promises
much popularity as president and the
rules she had adopted for tht club's
regulation proved her insight into
the best government of such a circle.
Bridge was the game and top score
, was made by Mrs. Helen. Iler favor
was a handsome piece of cut glass,
and a pretty bit of china went to
Mrs. Wm. Fonash as guest prite. Ac-
cording to club rules, but one refresh
ment course was served. That this
club was so happily begun bodes well
for its pleasant continuance and for-
tunate was it in having Mrs. Craw-
ford bespeak the hostess-ship of its
first meeting. There were present:
Mesdames W. S. Banks, Henry Hem-
pel, C. Sbelton. Matthews. J. C. Dal-
las. W. W. Swift. E. H. Helen. J. W.
White, H. E. Otto, Wm. Fonash;

IMBDURHE (URGE
HI twinus
Hon. Winbourne Pearce reached
home yesterday from campaign fields
in the East in which for an extended
time, he had been on the stump tor
the Democratic National ticket. a
He reports the fight waxing warm-
er each day as the campaign nears
the close. As to the probable out-
come, he reports both of the leading
parties, meaning the Democrats and
Republicans, to be altogether at sea,
insofar as it's possible for either to
confidently make a prediction.
Mainly in doubt, it seems, is the
direction in which the "unemployed"
labor vote will swing. Especially in
the East, this vote will be heavy, and
will, consequently, play a very im-
portant part in the results.
It is extremely difficult, it is stat-
ed. for either of the leading party
campaign headquarter* to get an in-
telligent "line" on the prevailing
sentiment In the country, on which to
base a prophecy. The various reports
of canvasses made among the voter*,
"straw votes," and the like which
have been received at the headquar-
ters seem only to confuse, the more,
the forecast makers. In short, only
the official reports from the ballot
boxes to be used next Tuesday can
"tell the tajc" with any definitenesa,
and these are being awaited with un-
usual intensity of "suspense and bat-
ed breath."

TEMPLE HIGH SCHOOL
GRADUATE IS HONORED
Mr. Wm. Dickey returned from
Georgetown yesterday, and expressed
himself as being very enthusiastic
about the great Southwestern Univer-
sity. He says Mrs. Dickey and the
young ladles, Misses Jeston and Bes-
sie Lee, and Master Houston, are all
well pleased with Georgetown, and
the reception they have received
there.
Miss Jeston has just been very sig-
nally honored, by being elected
member of the "Council of Honor" of
the University, being one of eight
young ladies, out of a student body
of eight hundred to be thuB honored
In.thla connection, It will be re-
membered that some two or three
weeks ago The Dally Telegram con
tained the account of a similar honor
being conferred upon Mr. Shelby Cox
son of Hon. and Mrs. John J. Cox of
this city, by the Texas University at
Austin. The fact will also be remem
bered by many, that both these for-
tunate young people were members
of the Temple High School graduat-
ing class '06.
And In a more recent Issue of The
Dally Telegram was reported that
Max Thomas, a Temple boy, nephew
of Messrs. W. S. and G. W. Rowland
had been honored at the University
of Texas where he la a member of
the student-body in the electrical en
glneerlng department, with the office
of representative from his class on
the student's council, also to the stu
dent's branch of the Society of Amer-
ican Electrical Engineers.
The honors thus 'conferred upon
these Temple young people can
mors thoroughly appreciated when It
is borne In mind that these honors
are not promiscuously bestowed, the
distinction being conferred upon les£
thsn one out of each hundred stu
dents In attendance In these two
great Institutions.

The Democratic mis-managers of Texas, men who have fattened
oti public office and grown opulent in power and riches through con
trol of this State Government tell YOU that the Democratic Party 0{
Texas is NOT commited to the policy of State Wide Prohibition and
threaten the voter with political extermination if he repudiates the
pledge which he was coerced into accepting in the July primary. I say
that the Prohibition Party of Texas is now the Democratic Party and
the state widers are in full control of the brig.
Tin M it the Pudding.
That the Democratic Party of Texas is bound hard and fast to the
policy of State Wide Prohibition is proven by the acts of the Party of
Mis-managers the integers of the "machine" that is today misrepre-
senting and injuring the people of Texas regardless of party affiliations,1
' The State Committee Made the Start,
When the Democratic State Committee voted to print on the pri-
mary ballots last July the pro aud con of Submission, thereby forcing
thousands of Democrats to vote on a question strongly against their
wills, they dragged a question of morals into the political arena and
forced a battle to the death. That committee called a State primary; It
did more; it prescribed that none but Democrats could vote itvthat pri-
mary; to make sure that each voter would be afterward bound hand
and foot politically it placed a test or pledge at the head of the ticket
which proclaimed the voter to be a Democrat and bound him TO SUP-
PORT AT THE POLLS the result of the primary.
Prohibllim a Political Issoe.
Now mark you none but Dsmocrats could vote in that primary
No Republican was permitted to vote even if he expressed the inten-
tion to vote on the Submission question only. No Populist could vote!
No one could vote unless he declared himself a Democrat and agreed
to support the result. That instant Prohibition become a partisan is-
sue, one raised by the Democrats themselves and bound every man al-
though opposed to Submission to vote and work for it. WHY? Be-
cause it received a majority of all the votes cast on the question in the
primary throughout the state. The Democratic party through the
action of its leaders thereby become bound to Prohibition for if the
party was opposed to prohibition there was no necessity for injecting
the issue into the July primary' All thev had to do was to LKT
WELL ENOUGH ALONE.
State Convention lor Submission.
Under the leadership of Sterling P. Strong, Rev. G. C. Rankin,
Judge Garret of Houston and R. W.Hall of Vernon the lastDemocratic
State Convention held at San Antonio wrote in the platform a demand
that the legislature submit the question of State Wide Prohibition
through a constitutional amendment to the voters of the state. Thus
again did the Democratic leaders confirm their right to being the first
to inject Prohibition into the campaign as a political issue.
Prohibition a Morel issue.
Prohibition is a moral issue and properly has no place in ]>olitics
but seeing that the rights of the individuals were about to be overrid-
den and personal liberty smothered in a blaze of fanaticism the RK-
PUBLICAN PARTY of TEXAS SOUNDED THE ALARM and
unequivocally declared in its platform for the improvement 'and per-
fection of LOCAL OPTION LAWS already existant and AGAINST
the pernicious proposition of Submission.
Cracking the Party Whip.
Already the ring masters of the Texas Democracy are practicing
with the lash and its zip and whirr and crack are already commencing
to be heard, They say VOTE FOR THE PARTY JUST THIS ONE
TIME and things will improved before two years are gone. The voter
is being threatened with political ostracism if he forgets the iron bound
pledge forced down his throat and the Houston post now intimates that
the next Legislature will enact legislation making a violation of a par-
ty pledge a CRIME. Reflect on that threat you faithful Democrats
and learn who is master here in Texas.
The Situation in Boll County.
In the July primary Sell County was carried for submission by
about three hundred majority'with 4500 voters taking part. Ever) one
knows that Bell Couniy has nearly if not quite 8000 voters, yet here^
we have a fragment of the Democratic party, say 2400 out of a total offl
8000 committing Bell County to Prohibition through its twin sistw^
submission. Verily the people rule in Bell County when the wishes of
5600 voters are ma le subordinate to the will of 2400. WHAT DO
YOU THINK OF SUCH A SYSTEM OF MINORITY RULK ANY
HOW? ARE YOU GOING TO STAND FOR IT?
Vote to Defeot Prohibition.
It is a pleasure for us to deliver
anything yon want in I the drag line.

To be a Democrat you must now be a Prohibitionist. The acts of
the lea ders proclaim it and the primary results confirm it. If you >'re
a slave to tradition and not your own boss you will meekly accept the
results and obey the orders sent down from the mis-managers on high.
IF YOU ARE AN INDEPENDNT DEMOCRAT and desire to save
your party from capture by the fanatical and puritanical element who
wear the livery of democracy with which to serve Prohibition you
vote as you please November 3rd and laugh at the whirr of the party
lash. If you believe that Governor Campbell should be rebucked lor
the miserable failure he has made of his two years of office, his sup-
port of Submission,the abominable operation of the full Rendition Tax
Law, the Text Book scandal, oppressive l^ws against railroads and
capital, the freak laws of the Thirtieth Legislature then cast your votes
for the Republican candidate for Governor of Texas.
