A string of short items mentions J C Habermacher rates, distribution in Savannah, a new oil mill for Yorktown, Cuban bandits, Hugo Hay's reception of Boer envoys, and Cuba Philippines comparisons. Local calls urge Burgess in Texas tenth district, urge public schools quality, and cast doubt on party unity with Duff Wheeles.
The Tenth district urges Colorado County voters to back George Burgess in the June 16 primaries. Duff leads in that county, but Burgess campaigned for Shelburne and Robson in 1896 and 1898, showing active support. The piece predicts a big Burgess majority on June 9 in the district.
The withdrawal of Dr. I. E. Clark consolidates Burgess support with Fayette County backing 16 votes and Gonzales, Austin, for a 34 vote total. Lavaca and Colorado bring 59 votes toward a choice, surpassing the 49 needed. Other Tenth district counties add 39 votes. The Herald backs Burgess while Duff remains strongest rival among local papers.
