| The Waco Examiner has suspicion that
the Statesman is trying to tease that great

USELESS CYPHERs.
This way that SO many young men have
of committing suicide whenever they are
crossed in love is becoming alarming. SEN
sible young men never entertain any such
rashness. These weak.minded fellows who
cannot stand disappointment would make
failures in any department of life, any way,
and II would be better for society II they
had never been born.-[ Henderson fines.
ApoLOGETIo.
The Huntsville Item suspects the Hon.
Henry j. Labatt of furnishing the Austin
Statesman its wit. We shall not be sur
prised ii the Item is required 10 apologize
10 both the Statesman and Mr. Labatt.
since writing the above we met the editor
OF the Item, who happened to be on visit
TO this city, and he authorizes us TO make,
IN his name, whatever apology may be re-
quired. Houston Age.

Senator Chesley's bill 1--WE think he is the
author) is somewhat ON IA par with Mr.
Chenoweth'S railroad measure. The stat
utes already AFFORD quite comprehensive
remedies for neglect OF duty by telegraph
corporations. The bill above alluded to
would saddle them with virtual impossible
tiles, required by law TO be performed -

WILL sToP IT.
There is no doubt but that many coun-
ties have been using money derived di-
rectly from the sale OF school lands. b. M.
Baker, superintendent Of the board of edu-
cation, now puts his foot down on any such
use OF the money derived in this way, and
says 1t should be invested in state or
United States bonds, and the interest on
such investments may be used.- Marshall
Messenger.
UNwELCoME IMMIGRANTS.
A Chinaman does not benefit our state
morally or financially, nor any other way.

NOT MUCH OF A BUGABoo AFTER ALL,
There appear 10 be some members OF he

DEMOCRATS AND TIE LOBBY,
The democratic legislature is exposing
itself to severe adimadyersion ON account OF
alleged subserviency to the disciplined
lobby that patrols the approaches to the
capitol. IL Is said, and by friends also,
that this impressibillty TO outside inilu.

From gentleman in the newspaper

managers of the Times. Democrat, OF that
city, contemplate In the near future the
publication of u facsimile edition of that
paper simultaneously In New Orleans and
Dallas. 1t is the intention to have the two
papers exactly alike in all respects, save the
ltcal advertising. MIR. Judd is to have

The Times Democrat has been advertising
