The Galveston Civilian lSOp-
posed to the proposed political
conference of Texas editors,
and very sensibly remarks:
The opinions of the Civilian
can be given in a very few
words. We advise editors to
stay at home and endeavor to
make good newspapers of their
publications. Leave political
intrigues to professed politi-
clans, and discuss the men and
measures they present before
the people. in an independent
frank and honest spirit. This
running of newspapers as polit.
ical machines, to be supported
by contributions from scheming
rings and sharesin official plum
der, is not true journalism anC
does no credit to the press o

Politics, however they make
the intellect active, sagaciOus,
and inventive, within a certain
sphere, generally extinguish
its thirst for universal truth,
paralyze sentiment and imagi-
nation, corrupt the simplicity
of the mind, destroy that CON
tidence in human virtue which
lies at the foundation of philan-
thropy and generous sacrifices
and end in cold and prudent
selfishnesS.

MORAL GREATNEsS.-Moral
greatness includes in it's grasp all
excellencies, and virtually fosters
and forever dignifies all intellect
ual wealth. A man may acquire
intellectual distinction, yet fall
far short of moral greatness. But
he who aims at this sublime goal
may reap on his way thither al
the fields of intellectual wealth
and carry as trophies and adOrn
mentS all his sheaves with him.

THE AIM OF LIFE.-The great
controlling purpose of life is the
true test of its value. Men who
have low and worthy aims, who
are content to grovel in sensual
pursuits, never rise above the level
of their lowest desires. This is
what dRgrades or elevates q life
its aim. This is law. This inhu-
ence is not always preceptible. 1t
is frequehtlyso subtle as to evade
detection in full, and sometimes it
assumes a shape so as TO deceive
both the PERCEPTION and the judg'
ment. But tits always there! 1t
controls. Its voice, though un
needed, commands the whole ar
my Of rational powers, and sum
nous each and all to the mighty
task. Choose wisely, therefore
your aim.
