A Waco Poet on Dallas Epistler.
Waco Day


Brother Sterett of the Dallas Times
has soured on the Texas exhibit at the
New Orleans exposition, which he says
embraces few bed quilts, a dozen
ears OF corn (nubbiDs?) and fine col
lection of venomous reptiles and in
sects-all of which, Brother Sterett
says, cost only twenty thousand dol
lars. But visitors to the exposition say
the display is very creditable to our
great state, and the Times-D Democrat
bears witness that 1t is the largest and
most varied in the exposition build
ings, and is without a superior in any
respect. "As an exhibit of the agrl-
cultural, mineral, forest and other re-
sources Of the state,n says that paper,
and of its civilization and artistic
development, the display Is a credit
net only to Texas. but to the entire
South" Like Tom Moore's dude,
Brother Sterett has seen his fondest
hopes decay so often, and has nursed
so many dear gazelles only to see them
fade and die, that his heart is mashed

Dicks Voice.


The Springfield Monitor informs us
that old Dick Hubbard, the obese
Texan who has been appointed minis
ter to Japan, has voice like fog
horn. This is serious misstatement.
The only American who has q voice
like foghorn is Mr.. Nicholas M. Bell,
the Missourian who has been APP.
pointeda carrier in the for elgn mail
service of the postotiice department.
Old Hubbard's voice belongs to the
class that is called "queer voices" so
called from the fact that the sound
ofthem produces in the mind of the
nearer dim, vague, misty, and con.
fused sensations, or, as the illiterate
say, "hoodoos them.n When one says
he is "qreered,n he means that his
mental faculties have been unbalanced
by what he has seen, heard, or read to
some such extent, rs Is invariably the
case when one takes small dose OF
morphine or hashteh. The most
prominent practical illustrations of
the "queer voice. school in America
are Roswell G.. Horr, q. Frisbee Hoar,
and Gen. b. M. Prentiss.

Europe did likewise. In 1915, Texas
having In the meantime applied for
admission into the American Union,

For twenty years the growth OF
Texas was retarded by wars and dis
orders, but during the last decade and
q half 1t has made remarkable strides.
It's population, augmented by per-
sistent and most intelligent immigra.

Europe, has grown surprisingly, and

MR. EDWARD ATKINSON of Boston
Is a clear. headed reasoner. In an ad.
dress recently he made some good
points on the wages and business
problem. He said that a rise or de-
preston in business follows upon a
very narrow margin of difference be-
tween production and consumption.
The case Is like that OF Micawber,
who said that to have shilling over
and above all cost and liability is
wealth, while to be indebted to the
extent OF shilling and have nothing
wherewith to pay is poverty. So long
as a shilllng's worth OF goods IL de-
manded beyond what is produced, busi-
ness prosperity continues, but the mo-
ment shilllng's worth more il pro.
duced than is called for depression be-
gins. In other words, so long as there
Is plenty OF work to do there will be
no serious difficulty as to the rate OF
wages, When industrial depression
comes wages are reduced, strikes fol-
low, the purchasing power of the
great body of consumers is largely re-
duced, and hence the looked-for relief
only aggravates the trouble.
