Will Texas' Legislature Enact a Law
to
Prevent It ?
GOVERNOR'S FRIENDS JUBILANT!
They Declare the Event Will be Prevented
by a Law Making It a Felony The Work
of Constructing the Amphitheatre
Being Rapidly Pushed.
Austin, Tox., Sept. S8. Governor Cul
berson's proclamation convening tho leg
islature next Tuesday, to eunct another
anti-prize light law, was n great surprise.
It requires n two-thirds vote to glvo im
mediate effect. Representative Ham Ward,
a leading member of tho house, said today
that tho legislature would undoubtedly
pass a law to go into effect nt ouco, and
that It would mnkoprisso lighting ft felony.
Ho thinks that tho law will bo passed
within n weok after tho legislature meets.
Tho governor's supporters nro jubilant,
anil regnrd a law to tuko immedlato offoct
ns ii certainty. Tho opposition maintain
that tho required two-thirds of tho mem
bers of tho legislature will not bo secured
for an Immedlato act, but do not doubt
that' ft law will bo passed to tako effect In
ninety days. While taking this view, tho
opposition are wondering what tho gover
nor will do next if a law to tako immedlato
effect is not passed. Tho quostlon on nil
sides is, Will tho governor rest his caw on
legislative action? Conservative opinion
Insists that two of tho three branches of
government, the judicial nnd legislative,
should and will settle the matter. Tho ju
diciary has spokou, and the legislative will
be heard from by Oct. 4.
President Stuart, of tho Florida Athletic
club,malntnlns his usual business attitude
and rests, and be always does, on tho legal
advice of bis attorneys that he is proceed
ing undor the law. Ho says: "When sat
isfied that tho laws of Texas guaranteed
protection to' tho citizens who Invest their
money in enterprises not prohibited by
law, tho contract for tho building Is now
half completed and being rapidly pushed.
Coutruets involving over a million feet of
lumber and a hundred other obligations
havo been entered into, and all fair minded
nnd upright legislators will do justice
to all alike, avoiding anything like con
fiscation or interference with contracts
made with a high judicial decision as a
guide."
Tho Dallas News concludes an editorial
on tho situation in these words: "And
now it is to bo hoped that tho legislature
will at least bring tho problem to someof
fectlvo and salutary conclusion. In ac
complishing this work it will not be
enough for the legislature to close tho
stute against revolting brutalities of tho
ring; it inusv as fully guard against tho
perils of scandals of conllicts of exeoutivo
and judicial authorities, such as that
which was recently browing."

The Gavnriior' Wire think tlm Fight
Should Not be l'rovcntecl.
CmcAuo,Ills.,Scpt. 28. "If Texas wants
a prize light it should havo it," said Mrs.
A. Culberson before leaving Chicago yos
terday for Texas. Mrs. Culborson is tho
wife of Governor Culberton, of Texas, ami,
with her mother, Mrs. Harris, lias been
spending tho summer in tho north.
"What's tho use of poor Charles working
himself to death to prevent something tho
whole state wants? " continued Mrs. Cul
borson. "At least ulno men out of every
ten in Texas want the prize light, and,
after nil, he wn9 elected to carry out tho
will of tho people, and tho peoplo want tho
fight. I don't enro what they say they
want, or pretend to say, thoy would, ovory
one of them, go to it. Then, think of the
money it is going to cost to convene tho
legislature. I don't see, any woy, why
ouo man should havo tho power to decide
what tho rest should do. One man's judg
ment is no better than uuothor's, and I
don't seo why ono judge's opinion is better
than thoso of his fellow judges."
"Think ol Ids conscience and his respon
sibility in the mattor," said Mrs. Harris.
"A man must do what ho thinks right
when ho holds in trust uu ollico for tho
peoplo."
"That's just it," suid Mrs. Culborson.
"He docs hold it for the peoplo, and tho
pooplo want tho fight, and 1 say let them
havo it. There is no uso in his staying up
nights nnd worrying himsolf to death try
lug to keep up public dignity."
And Mrs. Culberson looked as if sho
meant what sho said, and was far moro
concerned about tho hnrd work and worry
her husband hod been obliged to uudorgo
in order to keep his threut and conveiio
tho legislature than ubout any pugilists
trying to sully Toxas' fame.
"I have met a number of very prom
inent business men from Texas this sum
mer," Mrs. Culborson went on, "und
every ouo of thorn believe in allowing tho
fight to go ou, and hero tho governor is
trying to stop something tho popular senti
ment is in favor of having. It's all foolish
ness, nnd I've told him so. I sidd, 'You
uro elected to carry out the will of tho poo
plo and you nro not doing it all when you
oppose whut thoy want.' "

Shenandoah Huh Many Candidates to Go
llelore Itiu Convention.
Tho primaries are bold this afternoon in
tho various wards between tho hours of 3:00
and 7:00 o'clock, and tho county convention
will bo bold on Monday at Pottsville.
Tho question uppermost in tho minds of tho
load politicians is, what will Shenandoah
get Thoro aro at proscut fuur candidates in
tho Hold from this town, namely, I!. It.
Severn, for Controller; Lawronco Mangam
nnd Michael Graham, Director of "the I'oor,
and Dr. William N. Stein, Coroner. This is
an array of material for tho convention to
draw from, either ono of which would add
strength to tho ticket.
The nomination of Controller scorns to bo
conceded to Mr. Severn, although a numbor
of coutity seat politicians aro grooming a
man for the position. If they succeeded in
placing him upon tho ticket then ono of
Shenandoah's candidates fur Poor Director
stands a good show of being nominated. It is
understood a combination has already been
formed with that object in view, but how
successful it will be the future must decide.
Either duo of tho candidates would servo the
peoplo well at thcalmshouso, one of them, Mr.
Mangam, having filled the position with
credit both to himself and his constituents.
Tho order of nomination brings tho Con
troller after the Judgeship, and that of
Coroner is tho last named, with tho exception
of Surveyor. Should wo fail to receive tho
nomination of cither the Controller or Poor
Director, as a matter of good politics Shenan
doah should be given tho Coroner. In the
person of Dr. William N. Stein, son of Mino
Inspoctbr Stein, wo havo an aceeptablo candi
date and one who would receive a large voto
if nominated.
It can bo seen, therefore, that Shenandoah
will havo a representative upon the Itepubll
can ticket ; and tho only question to decide
is which one will win tho prize, and that
question is In the hands of tho delegates
elected this afternoon for solution. It is to
them tho voters must depend upon as well as
tho candidates. They will bo the custodians
of our Interests, and wo trust they will guard
those interests well.
Thd selection of a County Chairman by tho
nominees of tho convention is causing as
much interest, if not more, than the personnel
of thd ticket. With an incompetent chair
man bucccss is a doubtful quantity.

HOGS AND ALLEYS CONDEMNED I
The Board Says Many Causes of Complaints
Would be Abolished If the Alleys
Were Properly Graded The
Lady and the Hogs.
Tho Hoard of Health met last night and
spent sonio time in discussing matters bearing
upon sanitary affairs. Tho members in
attendance wore President Spalding, Messrs.
Malono and Morrison, Secretary Curtlit and
Health Olliccr Conry.
llio epidemic commltteo reported that
three cases of diphtheria and two of typhoid
fever had been reported sinco the 17th lust.
Health Oillcer Conry said only ono of tho
diphtheria cases remains and the typhoid
casos are still undor treatment.
The commltteo on necrology reported that
28 deaths wore recorded sinco tho last meet
ing, of which 12 were duo to cholera infan
tum, 3 to acuto meningitis, 3 to marasmus
and 2 to paralysis.
Tho case of Anthony Flynn was again con
sidered. Tho committee on nuisances and
Health OHlcor reported that the creek that is
responsible for tho nuisance is a natural
water courso and has been made a nuisance
by tho borough allowing peoplo to connect
their outhousos with it. Tho connections ox
tend all tho way from tho First ward to the
Commercial hotel. Tho place is not only a
nuisanco to Mr. Flynn's family, but to tho
neighbors as well, and there are cases of
typhoid fever in tho vicinity. The matter
was disposed of by a resolution to the effect
that the President and Health Officer go lie
fore the liorough Council and seo if some
thing can bo dono to abate tho nuisance.
Health Officer Conry read a lengthy written
report in which ho showed that ho had taken
steps to abato twenty-five complaints of
nuisances. Special attention was called to
filthy yards and it was stated that at 08, 214
and 210 Poplar street there aro filthy yards
and bog pens and diphthoria existed in tho
neighborhood.
Mr. Conry also stated that ho paid a visit
to the Leitzel property ou East Coal stiect
and found hogs on tho second story where
liay is stored. Only a partition of boards
separates the place from dwclliiignpartnietits.
The officer asked a woman residing in tho
apartments if the hogs wore a nuisance and
sho averred that they were not. "Let them
alone. It would bo a pity to part them," said
a member of the Hoard as the officer concluded
his statement.
Tho officer also stated that many of the
nuisauceii in existence aro duo to the un
graded condition of the alleys.
President Spalding suid tho hog nuisance is
certainly something that tho liorough Council
should try to alKite, and tho Council can do
moro to clear the town of nuisances by in
sisting upon having tho alleys graded than
any other measure can accomplish. "
The president also complained of tho care
lessness shown by physicians in filling out
returns to tho Hoard. Ho cited as instances
returns by physicians that they did not know
whether children ofalllictcd families were at
tending school, or whether premises required
attention as to their sanitary condition.
