Four Constitutional Amendments Explained for November Vote

The Brownwood Bulletin outlines four proposed constitutional amendments. They cover taxing county held school lands, abolishing the Board of Prison Commissioners for a single executive, allowing counties to create independent school districts, and permitting National Guard and Reserve members to hold public offices when not on duty. The piece notes most amendments are worthy though not vital and anticipates defeat as in recent years.

The Mildest Manner'd Pirate Captain Thomas Tew

The article recounts Captain Thomas Tew of Rhode Island, former privateer turned pirate, his alliance with Misson at Libertatia, and his eventual mortally wounding battle in the Red Sea after a career spanning privateering, piracy, and nefarious exploits. It notes his reputation for courage and decency in contrast to peers, ending with a Byron quote about his nature.
