PLACES TO HAVE A GOOD
TIME, WHICH ARE CLOSE
People who are looking for a
place to spend a vacation, away
from work and worry, are referred
to Bonham State Park, if for but
one day away from the daily grind.
If a longer time is desired, go to
Site 1, north of Bonham, where over-
night cabins are available, with
many of the conveniences that one
might have at home. It is an ideal
place.
The federal government made
both of these propositions possible-
all for the benefit of the public. A
nominal fee is charged, but even at
that, it is a cheap outing, and a good
one, at either place.
People who have seen Florida and
California say there is plentv of
scenery worth while down at Site 1,
minus the long trip to get to either
of the other places.

Walter Short, who was hurt some
time back, when he fell off of a
string of box cars that had been hit
too hard by another string, and who
had been taken to Marshall to the T.
& P. R. R. hospital, has returned.
Mr. Short looks well, in fact he
looks swell, but he says he is not en-
tirely over the escapade yet. When
you let a man fall about fifteen feet,
and he weighs 215 pounds, by the
time he reaches the bottom his
weight is something to stop. It is a
thousand wonders that Walter was
not injured more severly.
Incidentally Mr. Short says that
J. R. Turbyfill, an engineer on the
T. & P., has been in the hospital
for an operation.
Also John Turbyfill, his son.
Doc Lilley, a veteran switch
engineer, is also there for an opera-
tion, 1
Frank Cromwell, still another en-
gineer ,is there for a slight opera-
tion.
Looks like it is bad for engineers,
that so many of them have to go on
“the rip track.” The old boys have
just put these operations off, and
now, since they are on the retired
list, they have plenty of time for
such things.
And don’t feel sorry for them
about the cost of the operations, no
matter what they might cost in a
private hospital. All these years
these fellows have been working for
the road they have been laying up a
fund for just such a contingency—it
is taken out of their pay checks, as
the months go by, and is based, al-
ways, on the amount their pay
checks call for every time. It is
something that is coming to them—
without money and without price.
It may be of interest to some to
know that sisters of charity work in
the hospital, and that everything is
done for the comfort of the railroad
men who are sick and need hospitali-
zation.
USES WHEAT BINDER FOR 35 YEARS
Miss Elizabeth Council, who has
been in Baltimore, Maryland, .came
home Friday. She visited many
places of interest in the east. Miss
Charles Perschbacher, Johannisburg, 111., farmer, believes he has one
of the oldest wheat binders in the country that is still in actual use.
Perschbacher (seated) purchased the ancient machine in 1902 from L. W.
Eckert, standing, dealer at Marissa, 111. and ever since, he has used the
machine to harvest his crops.

NOBODY’S
BUSINESS
By Julian Capers, Jr,
AUSTIN—Money for pensions
will be the first problem to confront
the new administration when it
takes office next January, in the
opinion of those here whose busi-
ness it is to follow ;the trend of pub-
lic thinking in Texas. The first in-
dication of what direction the
O’Daniel administration’s efforts to
meet the public demand for in-
creased pensions will probably icome
out of the Beaumont state conven-
tion next month. The whole field
is wide open—since O’Daniel made
no commitments during his campaign
nor since,—and the platform adopt-
ed at Beaumont should show the di-
rection in which he will turn to get
additional pension revenue.
Sales Tax Drive On
Advocates of sales tax urge this
already are busily urging this
method of extracting substantial
revenue, and it now appears that
the sales tax advocates, headed by
Jim Ferguson, did some shrewd

sister, Miss Manna Johnson, impoi’tant source of state
campaign. At the outset. Fergu-
son, the most voluble advocate of
$30 pensions and likewise the most
ardent sponsor of the sales tax, en-
dorsed and supported Me Craw, wh">
looked like the leading candidate
eadly in the campaign. Luted. as
the O’Daniel movement developed.
Ex-Senator T. H. McGregor, life-
long ally of Ferguson and as strong
sales taxer, jumped aboard the
O’Daniel band-wagon. The politi-
cians wondered about this apparent
“split” between the two veterans
who have always worked so closely
together, but when the votes were
counted, and McGregor launched a
speaking campaign in behalf of the
sales tax, advocating repeal of the
chain store tax at the same time,
they understood.
Two Best Bets
The sales tax and additional
taxes on natural resources appear
to be O’Daniel’s best bets to get im-
portant pension money. The oil in-
dustry, however, claims it is now
bearing about all the load it can
carry and remain in competition
with other oil producing states, and
any radical increase in taxation
might result in a declining total of
revenue, especially with too much
oil being produced even under rigid
proration. Oil and gas are now
produced in substantially more thar
half the counties of the State, and
a strong bloc to resist increase'-'
taxation on these resources would
be formed immediately in the Legis
Real estate no longer is an
revenue,
and the property owners have pro-
tested so vigorously that the trend
there is to relieve real property
eventually of all Skate taxation.
O’Daniel’s taxation views are not
known here. He has been a flour
broker, selling to merchants him-
self, so it is a natural assumption
that he ought to be sympathetic
with the view of retail merchants,
who oppose a sales tax to a fan. If
that is true, it appears that natural
resources will emerge as the pros-
pective patient for the $90,000,000
pensioh operation. ,,
But O’Daniel’s friends concede it
was the pension talk that recruiter?
the backbone of his tremendous
strength, and being the careful
student of public psychology that he
is, few here believe the new' govern-
or will waste any time tackling t'at
problem.
The Run Off
The final scramble, for votes be-
tween two candidates for each of
rux State offices, and a goodly
sprinkle of local candidates is near-
ing the final spurt for the second
primary August 27. The State
ticket find Walter Woodul, lieuten-
ant governor, of Houston, an able
lawyer and an official seasoned by
experience in public service, pitted
against Gerald C. Mann, of Dallas,
youthful Dallasite who is campaign-
ing against “professional politi-
cians,” who has* held three ap-
pointive political posts in the . brief
period since he graduated from
Harvard law school. For lieutenant
governor, Coke Stevenson, of -Junc-
tion, veteran legislator, twice speak-
er of the House and political con-
servative, is opposed to P. Pierce
Brooks, of Dallas, a real estate
subdivider who has never held of-
fice, but ran for Governor two years
ago. 'Chairman C. Y. Terrell, of:
the Texas Railroad Commission,
faces G. A. Sadler of Longview;
Bill McDonald, Land Commissioner
of Eastland, whose administration
has drawn criticism from legisla-
tive and other sources, tilts with
Rascom Giles, a former employee of
the office udm has never held elec-
tive office. Two high court judges,
also face runoffs. Associate Justice
Richard Critz of Williamson county,
with W. H. Davidson, of Beaumont,
and Judge Harry Graves, of Wil-
liamson County, with Judge James
A. Stephens. Leading lawyers of
the State have inaugurated a vigor-
ous campaign in behalf of Judge
Critz, who seeks election to his
first full term, having been first ap-
pointed to succeed Justice Pierson
and later elected to complete Pier-
son’s unexpired term.
