FIGURES tell awfully when they
are grouped properly. In another
article to-day we give some figures
relative to a policy of John Ireland's
when he was only a simple state sen
ator. They do not place the sage of
Seguin high in the scale of
craftsmanship. and when the old
plodding farmers begin to understand
what this craftsmanship has already
cost them, and is likely to cost them
In the future, the governor win stand
still lower In their estimation than he
does now. 1t is too bad that such
men have it In their power to fix a
policy like this which may cost the
state untold sums of money. That
whole International settlement
was on the part of the state most
bungling affair. and in its territory in
the future win be found many un-
wept unsculptured tombs, not of
really great men, but of men who as
pired to be considered great.

TIE friends of the governor rely
solely upon abuse to answer the Wig
orous objections now being legitimate
ly urged against his administration.
They can meet these in no other way.
A cause is surely weak when it is sus-
tanned only by such means. The adj
ministration organs will learn this
truth after awhile.
