Mow to straighten out the kink in their life story Is a problem whirh Is worrying them to dl.xlraction.. Newton, whose real name lit Wo. Porter, was the son of a carpen'er In Siokane.

Vah When his father was Injured by a fall (Jeorste mas placed In an orphanasre Ijiter he was adopted by Howard Newton, who moved east. Ml adored parents educated him at the lTnlverity of Wisconsin. After leaving tolleae young Porter, who had taken the name of Newton from his adopted iarents. returned to the Pacific northwest. While in Portland he met a Miss Klizabeth Porter, who was attending a seminary there.

The pair became infatuated and were married. That was nine years ago. The other day in an old trunk New on found a locket He opened it and found a tintype likeness of hi parents, given him when he ent 'to the orphanage in 18S0. When he showed it to his wife she fainted. The picture was one of her own father and mother.

She bad known of a brother, but had never heard what became WHY COLQUilT SHOULD BE ELECTED. JCuero Star) 1 If we tlect Colquitt Saturday, Auct 2. will put in a nan wi can reasonably expect to serve hit term. rd thu a vtry importnat consdr-tion. Elections covering the entire state like th atnatorahip are troubls some, expensive, disturbing affair and we ought not invite reception or frequency of them.

Th constitution has very wisely put th term at years and let's elect man we tNnk will be able to hold it that long and who will be Strenuously and vigorouslyen the job during the time. Again 'Colquitt deserves the highest favor from th people of Tcias for vigorously calling attention of the federal govtrnment to the need of financing cot- i tn and also to protecting the Texas border from Mexican bandit. Wh a political party owns a state to th extent the national democracy does Texas It is pretty hard to get the quickest and beat service for the people of such a state; favor go usually to closer or mora doubtful states wnere they will control public opinion snd votes. Where a people are all on way they are fixed poitical asset and no bid ha to be made for th votes and influence. Hence Colquitt had to "kick in" before ha could gt the attention of Washington authorities.

But he raited a hornet's nt and he got action; his views wer accepted finally and an adequate fenae was sent to the tie Grand; also the government loosened up cotton money after ao long a time and only permitted th farmer to lose on crop through confiscatory prices. No man in America dd mere to have proper protection for the lives and property of Texas people than Colquitt and no man in public life did more to call attention to the shamef al mad. equacy of our monetary affairs for the protection of coUon raiser of th state. Now when we figure the hundren of mile of frontier thst the trouble in Houston. Tt Palmer boy sklpted om but returned to Yoakum a couple of weeks A0, his father 11 vine here.

At first be was not troubled, but shortly after Ms return small robberies and petty thefts began to annoy the Yoakum police. Among. the places entered were Wagner's store, the Yoakum -creamery, "and liie warehouse of the Shropshire Company. The guilt -ould not be. absolutely fastened the boy.
