1st Lady—“Hasn’t this been an awful winter?.”
2nd Lady— “Yes, it certainly has.”
1st Lady—“I’d not mind it if my house was furnace heated like some others in Halletts-
ville. As it is my children and myself are half sick. Only one or two rooms in the house
are heated—the others are cold. And it’s so cold when we get up.”
The hot air furnace and big central register for only $165.00 complete—nothing else to
buy. You will need a basement about 10 feet square to accomodate the furnace.
The furnace is alvrays ready for late cold spells and early northers—no stoves to take
down—none to put up—no ashes—or coal—or wood, in the house—all in the basement
means better health—heats entire house if you plan the new home right—holds fire over
night—warm when you arise in the morning. Only one fire to keep—ideal for churches
and halls as well as your new home. Come see them.

Austin, Jan. 26—Only a
constitutional amedment ap
| proved by the people can re
move the disabilities imposed
as part of the impeachment
; sentence of James E. Fergu
son, former governor, in the
opinion of Senator Lloyd E.
Price of Daingerfield, author
of one of the resolutions be-
fore the Senate looking to-
ward Ferguson’s rehabilita-
tion.
j Senator Price received the
; impeachment of Ferguson by
the Senate in 1917, under a
provision of the Constitution
which, he said, erects a per
manent bar to removal of im-
peachment disabilities.
“I am of the opinion,” he
said, “that the Senate itself
cannot now reverse its own
judgment, and I believe that
the only way by which Fer-
guson can be restored to his
former political rights would
be to submit to the people for
their judgment an amendment
to the instrument which took
them away.
“I do not think that power
should be delegated to any
body of men permanently dis-
qualify any man, and that the
purpose of the proposed a-
mendment should, in case of
conviction, limit to a period of
not exceeding 25 years.
“From over the State I
have heard the statement that
vindication of her husband
#was the j?rincip^l issue of
Mrs. Miriam Ferguson’s cam-
paign, whereat the major is-
sue was the Ku Klux Klan.”
Senator Hardin of Kauf-
man, author of another reso-
lution, said that the Price re-
solution dodges the issue. Se-
nator Price asserted that th3
Hardin resolution would com-
! mit the Senate to do some-
thing it could not legally ac
complish.
The Hardin resolution re
cites that the judgement of
impeachment should be set
aside. The Price resolution
wrould take steps whereby
Ferguson might lawfully be
restored to his political rights.
Senator Hardin said a con
stitutional amendment miglM
be necessary to accomplish i4.
In the beginnig each said
his resolution was spontaneous
Neither was introduced, thev
said, by pre-arrangement with
Ferguson or with any Fergu-
son interest.
“The Price resolution,” said
Senator Hardin, “provides fo •
an investigation, but does not
say what to investigate. i
do not think it will dodge the
issue. The people of Texa-
met it squarely in Mrs. Fer
guson’s campaign.”

The Legislators and Their Pay
Everybody knows that th.-»!
legislators in Texas are inade-
quately paid. They should be
paid more or not anything.
The statement may and pro-
bably will meet dissent, but if
the number of legislators was
reduced by one-half or more,
there could be found in Texas
thoroughly qualified and ho-
nest men enough to make a
full legislature if there was
not a cent of salary or per
diem attached to the position.
Until only a few years back,
the members of the English
parliament received no pay,
yet all classes were represent-
ed
Probably a majority of the
legislators do not live within
their per diem. Those who
live long distances from Aus-
tin draw very considerable
sums in mileage which help-
fully supplements their per
diem, yet in the long run very
few can save much above their
necessary expenses.
In the meantime, many are
losing money by necessary ne-
glect of their business at home
If the number was reduced
to 93, the lowest number con-
stitutionally possible, the
state could afford to increase
the pay of members, and
should do so, and could save
money, because 93 legislators
would do twice as much busi-
ness as 150, in shorter time
and at less expense. Of this
there is no doubt whatever.
In 1875, when the present
rate of pay was fixed, the na-
tion had just passed through
the most disastrous financial
panic that had been felt in a
quarter of a century, and that
in some respects had ever be
fallen the nation. Had the pav
been made higher it is doubt-
ful if the constitution woul 1
have been adopted.
Conditions have greatly
changed since 1875, and $5 a
day is utterly inadequate pay
tor any man who can render
any useful service as a legis-
lator, but The Chronicle pre-
dicts that a reduction of the
membership of the iiouse will
be a co Jit ion precedent to
increa?ing the pay.
The per diem of 93 mem-
ber.- at $8 a day wculd be
• ? than that of 150 members
at $5 a day, and the 93 would
do more work than the 150,
and do it quicker.

Austin, Tex., Jan. 25.—A
widespread understanding
that the available state school
fund would permit a $15 per
capita apportionment for the
1,321,600 school children has
been exploded by S. M. N.
Marrs, state superintendent,
is a statement to the legisla-
ture.
It is only about $12, he
said, and would require a sup-
plemental appropriation of
$2,000,000, with $4,000,000
more in taxes, to produce $15
per capita. The $2,000,000 ap-
propriation would only take
care of the annual cost of
textbooks, he said.
His statement, addressed to
Representative Eugene Blounf
of Nacogdoches, chairman of
the house committee on appro-
priations, covered the finan
cial status of elementary pu-
blic education.
Mr. Marrs suggested that
the additional $4,000,00-J
might be secured by either a
tax on gasoline or on cigars
and cigarettes. ,
“The number of scholastic i
Mr. Maris’ statement said, j
“for 1924-25 is 1,321,600, an U
to furnish a per capita of $15. |
it would require $19,819,000
When we add to this amount
$2,000,000 for textbooks, we
shall require $21,819,000. As
the income from constitutional
sources, excluding the supple
mental appropriation of $2.-
000,000 last year, was $17,-
934,845, it is evident that the
regular constitutional sources |
must be increased either bv!
supplemental appropriation o •
by new sources of revenue,
such as the gasoline tax or
cigar and cigarette tax to tin-
amount of $3,884,155, or pra
j ctically $4,000,000. No ac
count has been taken of the
I probable increase in the num-
! ber of scholastics, which is es
j timated to be 20,000 annually,
I for the reason that the proba-
ble increase in valuation of
property and amount of taxes
collected on the present basis
would offsjet thivS increa.se.
“There is a general senti
ment over the state that thc-
por capita apportionment to
i the public schools should be
$15, and I sincerely hope that
your committee will be abl?
i to provide this amount.”
Henry Harrison Moore
aged 83 years, 10 months and
3 days died at the local hos-
pital Thursday morning ac
5:10 o’clock. He had been in
ill health for some time and
lived on the Moore ranch
near the city with his brother,
“Nick” Moore, who had hii i
brought to the hospital last
Monday. The cause of his
death was due to heart trou-

Funeral services were
held at the Catholic church
Saturday afternoon at 3:00
o’clock by Rev. Father Kieffer
with interment in the Catholic
Cemetery. He is survived bv
