Watts State president of the W.
C. T. U. who "waa scorned" at the
Waco convention when she wouia
not get aboard the Felix D. Rob-ertson-klan
bandwagon. Is out with
an open letter to Felix. She asks:
"1. Is it true that you were en
dorsed by the breweries as their
candidate for the legislature from
McLennan county In 1906?
"2. Is It true that you were de
feated in this race by the prohibi
tion candidate?
"3. Is it true that yon ran as an
antl-prohlbltlonlst in the above race
and publicly stated that if elected
you would vote against the submis
sion to the people of Texas of the
prohibition amendment to the con
stitution?
"4. If you answer the above
questions in the affirmative then
why ia it that your campaign lltera
ture sent out from your Dallas
headquarters refers to you as a
"life long prohibitionist?
"5. What did you mean when you
said in your Goliad speech 'I am
ot a fanatic on prohibition?'"

Lieutenant. Governor T. W.
(Whit) Davidson will be here today

ton. When a report la made the
matter should If the report ia favor-
able go to the legislature. I would
not say offhand and without further
consideration that I an It favor of
the movement unless such a commit-
tee went into the matter thoroughly
and reported favorably upon It."
Mr. Waugh said: "That city-county
merger of yours ia something I
worked for In the city council and
also at Austin. I am very much iu
favor of it for many reasons. It
would do away with a duplication of
expense a duplication ot work and
could be done as easily by one set
of men as two. I don't know of any
reaaon why any one should be against
the consolidation unless for political
reasons and to make Joba for more
politician a."
Other Commeeta.
Other comments received Monday
are given below:
J. A. Moncrief (president Moncrief-
Lenoir Manufacturing company): "Am
in favor of this merger tilan Tbe
Post is advocating because I think it
will save money. If it doesn't do
that then there Is no use of having
a merger but it it my opinion it
will."
C- L. Bering: "I really favor the
proposition set forth for merging the
city and county governments under
one hefd on the general principle of
economy. From personal experience
i Know it is easier to nanuie Busi
ness in tbat way. For these two
reasons at least. I absolutely would
like to see the plan go into effect
Carl K. Ries: "Anything that will
save the taxpayers money is t good
thing and I arn certainly In favor of
the city-county merger. It should
prove a very economical measure.
The people certainly seem to be tak
ing hold of the matter from all I can
hear and I am glad to know that
this is the case.
Whit Boyd Opposes.
Whit Boyd: "While I haven't time
just now to make a lengthy state
ment as to my stand on the city
county merger I wish to state at
this time that I am against the move
ment. My reason is that State taxes
would be Increased in tbe event this
merger was affected and we already
are paying in Harris county mere
State taxes tban we should be pay-
ing. For that reason. 1 am not in
favor of it."
In a letter to O. H. Hurlock A.
Franklin Sit tig. a prominent busi
ness man of Houston who ran for
mayor some 10 years ago writes
from Winston-Salem N. C: 'The
Post is working up a good move to
merge the county and city adminis-
trations. In which I am in hearty ac-
cord. Too much duplication and ex-
pense. Wherever tried has proven
successful."

Mr. Bachrach of defense counsel in

During tbe day Mrs. Cook visited a

If tbe district attorney's office is

the killing it is being done secretly.

Mr. Harris feels confident that at

Cook will be discharged without be

At far as can be learned definitely
no one but Mrs. Cook had even
flimsv motive for murdering the con
tractor and this was because of their
freauent disagreement but a number
of those who have examined the cir-
cumstances surrounding the killing
feel that it would have been prac
tically impossible for her to have done
the deed.
There hare been hints of a relative
of "another woman" shooting the
man. but these have not been sub
