STATE PRESS REVIEW

There is lesson in tho following extract
from the Waco Examiner that even the
most simple minded can learn and appreciate.
Lit Dallas ponder upon it, let all Texas do
it, and then act in accordance with what il
teaches:
The northern part of tho state of Illinois,
from line running east and west from
Quincy northward to Wisconsin, is one OF
tho iluest illustrations of properly adjusted
industries in perhaps tho entire world. Tray
cling through that section iroas, east TO wes',
or from north to south, the traveller Gnds
himsel in II continuous; corniield or wheat
field or pasLure.held; SEES every hand fine
blooded stock in horses, cattle, sheep, hogs,
an even chickens; crosses q railroad every
few miles, and passes through towns and cit
les of Ave to thirty thousand inhabitants
every ten or twenty miles, and be reaches
the lake to find a city of half million and
lake covered with sails. Thrift and wealth
meet him AZ every step, and so copious are
the elements Of prosperity that he is forced
TO Inquire into the causes 1t does not re-
quire much study to SEQ that the section
spoken of has solved one tho great prob
lens of political economy. IL is almost
completely q world within itself, com.
nuGity OF interests in wh oh every member
derives benefit from every other member
The market Of the farmer is at his very door.
Every egg that his hens lay and every pound
OF batter that his cows give are bought by
his neighbors in the adjoining manufactur-
ing town, and nearly everything that he is re.
CURED to buy is made by the men who have
eaten his beef, bis butter and his eggs.
His farm is diversified in score of different
crops, and every day in the year finds him
with something to sell and with soma one
ready TO buy. The manufacturing city, on
the other band, thrives and grows because its
manufactured articles fad ready sale, and the
provisions, the food and the fuel, which
make up tho expenses Of manufacturing, are
raised at home The surplus of mshuiac-
tured goods, sent out to parts less favored,
draw money from abroad to be spent Ut
home.
The Houston Post of Wednesday, con-
tains long editorial on Germany and tho
jews" in which it starts out in a
good, hearty tone, showing a
tendency to spouse the cause of the op.
pressed Jew. 1t says:
| We confess that when first we read
of the movement to cxpe! the Jews from
Germany, we were Mortified to fad an en-.
hghlened nation of the 10Th century guilty of
nsrrow.minded persecution which would
have left stain on the darkest era of bigotry
and intolerance. For such it seemed 10 Us.
Instantly visions Of the centuries of oppres
sion beneath which that race has toiled
rolled before us. We recalled the Jewish
quarter in Frankfort, 18th its uuwholesome,
narrow streets, It's crowded homes, in which
thods tnds of unhappy Jews were huddled;
and Large iron gate that barred them from
their fellow cltizens- from behind
which none could pass without special
permit, as if thcy were lepcrs both
morally and physically. What people has
suffered as they and proved its powers of
endurance through so many hundreds of
years years which would have crushed the
spirit, manned the energies, and utterly
oblitersted the individuality of any Christian
nation on earth? And yet, during the
blackes. days Of its history it lowered Intel
ec,g,lly among nations, il pros
daued its heines, its Memberships, its
Me- erbeers, its Moses MonteAores, its Mas
sei US, its Disraelis and Spinozas. In art, in
l'ttn ure, in philanthrophy itself. there have
been. and are, Jewish men whose works We
admire, and whose benevolence wo venerate.
But ii spois 1t all afterwards by accusing
the jew, of all manner of things, and de.
clares them the prosecutors and not tho per.
secuted, this extract being fair sample OF
this phase Of the article:
| 1t Is needless to say that whenever the
Jews, succeed, whenever they outnumber in
CITY, villsge, watering.placo or even hotels,
they become aggressive. Take up any
northern paper which sdvertises summer
resorts, and count the many advertisements
which read: "No Hebrew need apply"
Tho Terrell Times thus alludes to tho
wool interests of Texas:
