CHANGING THEIR MIND.
Several members ofthe Texas Legislature,
week or two since, expressed themselves
in favor OF John Hancock for vice president.
Since that gentleman has dubbed the leg.

OPPOSED TO RANGERs.
The Austin Statesman is opposed to the
further employment of police, or rangers,
rs they are politely called. IL THINKS that
the sheriiis, the posse comitatus or stsie
militia are amply able to preservs the peace
and arrest all oilenders.-[M ineola Non

GRAND TEXAS.
Texas has POI organized counties, several
of which are as large NJ Massachusetts, and
q thousand ranches, owned by individuals,
which are larger than Delaware. 1t EN-
braces some OF the most fertile land to be
found in the Union. The southern portion
bordering on the gulf is finely adapted to
the culture OF sugar and oranges; the CEN
trail portion will produce a bale OF cotton TO
thu acre, and the northern tier of counties
will produce 80 bushels Of wheat or so
bushels OF oats or corn to the acre, while
all the land not suitable for tillage yields
the fines, grass imaginable. Tine popnla-
ton OF Texas in 1916 was under l5O. 900,
while in 1883, just 81 years afterward. 1t has
population Of 1000 600 aud is receiving
accessions at the rate OF $50 per day. The
imagination can scarcely conceive Of the
power and wealth which awaits Texas in
the future provided she shall make an en-
lightened self-interest her pole star in fair
and foul weather.-[San AEtonio Light
oBsTRUCTioNIsTs.
In all communities there are those who
can only be haspy when Offering objections
to what the majority have agreed TO do
II at any time unexpected emergencies
arise and no special remedies have been pre-.
pared for these unexpected emergencies,
these croakers are loud In their a)use OF
those in authority because they do not de-
wise some way out of the trouble. In q
state with interests as varied as Texas these
emergencies are liable to arise frequently.
We are now passing through severe or
deal. Fence cutting originated in the pro-
gress Of events from causes not anticipated
by previous legislatures. When the
evil came, Governor ireland did all he
could in legal wav to stop IL. Because j.
was not stopped the G llve7ton News has
furiously ATTACHED the governor with the
methods peculiar TO that journal. IL Ia
gratifying to know the great masses of the
people are In symra'hy with ths governor
and that the News ia its new yaggry has
fewer followers than in rs former freaks.
Nothing il more gratifying than this; the
people Of Texas can not be led oil from tine
right by such methods Hs those employed
by the wou,d-be organ in the Gull CITY. IL
is to be regretted that Mr.. Hancock has
been led into denuncia.ion OF Cover.
nor Ireland Re is too sound
man to tall into 70 grave an error. Bat Mr..
Hancock has this virtue; when he goes
astray AND sees it, he rights himself. The
Spectator still believes the legislature will
do all that can now be done TO remedy the
evil OF icnce-Cuttlng, Corporations aud
rich cattle men have their rghtS-sO do
small cattle men, small farmers and the
great mass Of laborlng men ia roxas. Any
legislation that viii favor one class, will be
failure. The News With al the fectiauis.s
and obsiruc,ionists in the state, we believe,
canno, influence the legislature to do any
thing that viii punish poor men for crime
and ut the same time shield rich men when
they commit greater crimes.-[ Dodge City
