SENATOR CoKE's ideas are always
sound and practical. His opposition to
some of the provisions of the foreign
labor bill was wise and his remarks
true and well-timed, Texas wants all
industrious foreigners to come to this
state, even if they have not dollar, to
assist in developing the resources of the
state. They are wanted on the farms
and on the stock ranges. Men with
money are an element greatly needed
here, but men without money, if they
are Industrious and frugal, will soon
have money, if they come TO Texas to
labor honestly and strive to improve
their condition, both pecuniarily and
socially. No honest, industrious labor
ing man ever came to Texas, who saved
his earnings, but what became comfort
able in circumstances in less than q
half decade.

A VERY intelligent colored man writ
ing TO the HERALD from eastern Texas
expresses some sound and conservative
views. The principal point he makes
in advoting MR.. HALL as the successor
of the colored incumbent of the treasury
registry, is that the course of the HER
AID has always been just and fair to-
wards the colored race in all it's mate
rial interests. He says that "no decent
and respectable white man desires asso-
citation with negro; because he is of q
different race-no more than respecta-
BILE colored man desires such associa-
ton with Chinaman." He goes On to
say that all the colored people ask is
fair play, and thinks the HERALD has
always accorded them that. He refers
to the position the HERALD took some
months ago on question that arose
with regard to the persecution by white
Jehus of negro who presumed to driv,
a hack, and thinks the paper took
view of the situation that ought TO sui
every sensible man OF African descent

A Law Likely to Cause Trouble.

Alderman Pritchard has been studying the
new law consolidating the county and
city treasures, and has reached the con-
eluson that there will be shortage of $4,000
in the amount of city taxes collected each
year. He finds that under the provisions of the
act the county auditor will hereafter make the
city tax duplicate cost of ST. 600, while hereto
fore the city clerk has received only $500 for the
work. He estimates that it will cost
the township assessor $1,000 more to
make the city assessment than has
been paid the city assessor. With the increase
of one-half of per cent on the collection of
the first 100000 of taxes, and the additional
salary of $4,000, he figures that tho county
treasurer will receive So, 900 more than was paid
the city treasurer. Altogether he thinks the
law is a bad one and In one way and another
viii cause considerable loss to the city.

The doctor told him that he was ready at any
time to meet the charge that had been brought
against him. When Emma Meyer was placed
upon the stand, she said that DR.. He'll had never
treated her on any account; that when size was
taken sick at Squire Pease's house she did not

Ehe Quiet Pleasures of Bethany Park En-
hyened by Brass Band and Policeman.

''The Vital Forces of Republic" was the
subject of address by Dr. A. Marine, at
Bethany Park yesterday morning Christianity
is estimated among the vital forces of Re-
public-the truest and most spiritual of all
others. When liberty is mentioned Christian
ity is attentive, for liberty is essential to her
growth. There is nothing she halls with so
much delight as the proper use of
liberty; but the liberty to worship God is of but
little value if our conceptions Of Deity are false
The first building in this country was church;
the first music was a hymn; and the first
eloquence a sermon. The sinking of ones
liberty in the wide sea of Gods liberty is the
first oct of a great life on earth. There is deep
importance in preserving the sanctity of the
marriage relation. We possess now the best
ho1ses, the best wives and the best mothers
known to all nations Religion IS the radical
force of humanity-the scope CT religion is the
measure of history.
Prof. E. e. Smith of Purdue University, also
addressed the audience taking for his subject
sis Christianity the True Religion" The dia-
gram that will best represent the human mind
at the present time IS an interrogation point
The universal impulse to seek truth implies that
truth may be found. We should not quarrel
with those who do not search along the same
lines that we do. Christianity is the only relig
ion fitted for men everywhere, in all classes and
all conditions. In it there is nothing to offend
good people anywhere.
