"It', a landslide Morris," said he when met at the train last night.

"I did not know how things stood until I went to the people. I have made a tour of all North Texas and I will carry that country, solid." Mr. Morris stated that the point in his address to the executive committee was urging the repeal or modification of the Allison liquor law, which prevents the shipment of liquor into dry territories, but permits one to go to the -wet territory and buy It In person. Mr. Morris claimed that this practice hurt the dry districts, as the buyers seldom bought only liquor on their trips into wet towns, but other things as well.

In regard to the 'i mount of liquor sold before and after the passage of this law, Mr. Morris rald: "The difference is simply the difference between the little brown TOM ANDERSON Candidate for re-election COUNTY COMMISSIONER, PRECuVCT NO. 1, TRAVIS COUNTY.

The reports have created intense interest among seientirits. for the discovery suggests to the electrical world what the possibilities of perpetual motion or mechanical friction reduced to zero would mean in other fields.

Six Chilean warships revolted and many of the Congress leaders went aboard them. The revolutionary fleet sailed north and seized Iquique. The army supported tho President and severe battles were fought, the rebels being victorious. The "Junta de Gobierno" was then established. Swiftly Kolnaugurated.

The revolutionary army, marched southward, Balmeceda resigned the Junta established headquarters in Sanitago and order was swiftly rein-augurated. The career of Dr. Aureliano Urru-tia, a pure blooded Indian and proud of it, is in many respects as worthy of study as that of General Huerta. Huerta and Urrutia gave the lie to those who see the Mexican aborigine only dumb creatures of no possibilities. Urrutia, the leading surgeon in Mexico, was born in Xochimllco, a tiny Indian village in the suburbs of the As a boy lie.

peddled baskets in the streets of Mexico City. His parents were extremely poor. In that wondrous land of plenty few starve and some how or other Aureliano attended grammar Bchool in Xochimilco. He didn't get very far Then General Diaz established public schools in Mexico City and young Urrutia was one of the first Mexican boys to avail himself of this opportunity. He was graduated from the public schools and struggled through the medical school, where he studied under Liciaga.

Once a physician, Dr. Urrutia took surgery. He advanced rapidly. His reputation spread, for he was a man of great personality, iron will and vast intellect. He became known as Latin America's greatest surgeon.

He is also one of the wealthiest men in Mexico City. When Huerta came back after defeating Orozco for Madero, he was without command, ill, penniless, friendless and suffering from a cataract which made him nearly blind.

Mr. Morris expressed the opinion that under normal conditions Texas would go "wet" by a large majority, but that if the issue was submitted at the present time, the State would go dry, because the antis in the dry districts are seeing their trade going to the large cities that are wet, and they will vote for their own welfare regardless of their, sentiments on the liquor question.

"It is rumored around Austin," said Mr. Morris, "that I am in this race to assist in the electon of Mr. Ferguson. Please say for me that I am in this race to elect Leopold Morris and nobody else. "I am attacking Mr.

Ferguson on his public record as severely as I am Ball. In fact, I have had my own candidacy attacked more severely by Ferguson's forces than by Ball's." "Unless something unforeseen happens," said Morris, "I expect to call only one special session of the Legislature if I am elected Governor, and that will be devoted to the advancement and adequate provision for our institutions of higher education."
