MOVE STARTED
TO DIVIDE TEXAS
INTO TWO STATES
Sweetwater, Texas, April 2—Divi-
■ sion of the State of Texas and or-
ganization of a new State as a pro-
test against "taxation without rep-
resentation" is the goal sought by an
organization initiated here today as a
result of the Governor's veto on the
West Texas A. & M. bill and rural
school measure and failure of the
Legislature to redistrict according to
population figures. Several sur-
rounding counties are supporting the
movement and have representatives
present.
Support of the West Texas Cham-
ber of Commerce will be asked im-
mediately, it was learned from lead-
ers of the movement.
"Governor Neff's veto of the small
appropriation for the purchase of a
site for the West Texas A. & M. Col-
lege is full notice to the people of the
West that they are living under a
State Government which denies to
them the chance to realize their hopes
and aspirations," declared R. M. Chit-
wood, Representative from the One
Hundred and Twenty-First District,
today.

GREAT REVIVAL
MANY WANDERERS BROUGHT

BAPTISMS SUNDAY.
Old Fort Towson is redeemed and
many souls saved.
One hundred and eighty additions
were made to the various churches of
Fort Towson during the greatest re-
vival meeting in the history of the
town. Evangelist W. G. Winans car-
ried on the revival meeting during
the past four weeks and is responsi-
ble for the great work done during
that time.
All during the past four weeks re-
vival crowds flocked from all parts
of the county to hear the evangelist
in his great work. All were bene-
fitted by hearing him in his burning
denunciation of Sin.
All throughout the meeting, the
Baptist church fc which the meetings
were held, was filled to capacity and
during the last days of the meeting
crowds stpod on the outside of the
church.
Evangelist Winans, who conducted
Fort Towson's record revival, was
formerly pastor of the Baptist church
at Valliant. Up until the time of
Rev. Winan's work with the Baptist
church in Valliant he had traveled the
country on evaifgelistic tours. The
old calling returned, he stated at Ft.
Towson.
After two or three weeks of stren-
uous evangelism at the First Baptjst
church the meeting closed Wednesday
night of last week.
Many who had wandered away
from the "straight and narrow" path
were reclaimed and brought back in-
to the fold. Fifty professed public-
ly their faith in the Lord Jesus' abil-
ity to save. The church membership
was increased by 42 and at 3:00 p. m.
Sunday 26 converts were baptilzed at
the church.
Rev. Miller, of Hugo, did most of
the preaching and the influence of
his gospel sermons was far reaching
and most effective.
There will be services as usual at
the Baptist church on Sunday morn-
ing but no service on Sunday even-
ings during the revival at the Meth-
odist church.

Greensboro, N. C. April 2.—Recog-
nizing the great importance of the
Ninth Annual Convention of the
United States Good Roads Associa-
tion and the United States Good
Roads Show, which will take place
in Greensboro, N. C., on April 18-23,
the Bureau of Public Roads of Wash-
ington will have a splendid exhibit at
the Show. Hon. Thos. H. McDonald,
chief of the Bureau of Public Roads,
has notified Director General Roun-
tree that an order has been issued for
an exhibit to be sent to Greensboro
which will occupy two thousand
square feet of space. It will consist
of panels, photographic enlargements
of federal aid roads, maps, models of
road material, and will be in charge
of experts from the Bureau of Roads,
who will explain the same. It will
be most attractive and worth travel-
ing many miles to see. The United
States Good Roads Show is quite for-
tunate in securing the splendid gov-
ernment exhibit for Greensboro. The
Bureau of Public Roads at Washing-
ton has for the past four years tak-
en a deep interest in the United
States Good Roads Association and
has specially favored it in sending
their best exhibits to the Show.
Plans for the United States Good
Roads Show are being rapidly devel-
oped. Over one hundred different ex-
hibitors of road machinery, road ma-
terial, trucks, tractors, and automo-
biles will be represented at the
Show. Many factories are* not only
exhibiting their machinery, but are
sending their factory men here to
demonstrate the same. This feature
will be most interesting in every way.
The exhibitors will commence to place
their exhibits on April 15th and be
ready for the opening on April 18th.
Asa Rountree, Jr., assistant to Di-
rector General, will have ^charge of
the Good Roads Show. He is already
here arranging the details for the
same. The programe of both the
United States Good Roads Associa-
tion and the Bankhead Highway As-

ceived official information from offi-
cials who control the trunk line roads
in United States that they have put
on a reduced rate of one and one-half
fare, round trip, identification dele-
gate plan, to attend the Convention.
These trunk line roads are advertis-
ing and giving much publicity to the
coming meetings in Greensboro. A
number of passenger agents from the
connecting lines of the Southern
Railways have called at headquarters
to secure information and co-operat-
ing in making the meeting a success.
Over twenty governors have ap-
pointed delegates to attend the Con-
vention. Others write that they are
preparing to make appointments, but
are first securing the consent of
their appointees to attend the Con-
vention. The announcement of these
delegates will be made at a very

WAS STARR'S AID,
PRISONER ADMITS
RUFUS ROLLENS PLEADS GUIL-
TY TO ATTEMPT TO ROB
HARRISON BANK.
Harrison, Ark., April 1.—Rufus
Rollens, aged 29, of near Claremore,
Okla., this afternoon pleaded guilty
to attempted bank robbery, and was
sentenced by Judge Shinn of Boone
Circuit Court to three years in the
penitentiary. Rollens and two others
were accomplices of Henry Starr in
the attempted hold-up of the Peoples
bank here on February 17, in which
Starr was fatally wounded by W. J.
Myers, an officer of the institution.
The arrest of Rollens followed a
confession by Starr in the county jail
here to Sheriff J. S. Johnson. Rol-
lens was located at the home of a
relative at Muskogee, Okla., several
days after Starr confessed. Rollens
attempted to escape through a rear
door when officers went there to ar-
est him. He at first denied being im-
plicated in the attempted robbery.
Sheriff Johnson said tonight that,
while he had considerable evidence
I against the Oklahoma man, he was
surprised when Rollens pleaded guil-
ty. The sheriff said that Rollens
gave him considerable information re-
garding the attempted robbery, and
that he believes he will soon have un-
der arrest the two other men wanted
in connection with the case. Rollens
told the officers that after the rob-
bery here Was foiled by Mr. Myers
he separated from the other two men.
He was in Little Rock two days later,
which was Sunday, but spent only a
short time there, leaving early at
night for Oklahoma.
According to Sheriff Johnson, the
confession of Starr and Rollens "tal-
lied to a T." This convinced the
officer, he said, that both bandits
gave hira accurate information. Rol-
lens will be taken to the penitentiary
at Little Rock Sunday, the sheriff
said.
Rollens, who is married and has 2
children, is champion "broncho bus-
ter" of the world, having won that
title at Winnipeg, Canada, last year.
He told Judge J. M. Shinn that the
robbery here was his first attempt
at banditry.
