VIM. B. WEBB, Of Billings, has been
appointed Secretary Of the Territory
of Montana. The Gazette says of his
appointment: It is a recognition OF
the young Democracy CT the Terri
tory-the class of Democrats through
whom in great measure Mr.. Toole at
tanned to the position of Delegate in
Congress, but apart from all that Mr..
Webb was UNNECESSARILY the best
man among those who aspired to the
Office. Since organization of the coun-
ty Mr.. Webb has held the position of
chairman Of our board of county
commissioners, and has come through
the ordeal Of Office well. In his new
position we hope he will add new
lustre to his name. We heartily CON
graduate Mr.. Webb and the Terri
tory.

hearted and noble manhood; the sync-
nym, too, Of sagacious statesmanship,
pure moral and high Christian character
and answering integrity. For one
we are not prepared to credit the al
legged lapse from virtue OF such man,
without the most decisive proof But,
II demonstrated. II Is something over
which good men and angels might well
weep. and only the basest OF mankind
could rejoice.
we are also strongly inclined to dis
credit the generally accepted statement
that Mr.. Colfax suffered compulsory re-
tirement because of the charges re-
ferred to. That he felt 1t keenly
there can be no doubt, but that
he had lost the confidence OF
those who knew him best, we do not be-
lieve. We doubt not he could at any
time have been returned to Congress
from his old district, had he so desired.
But having attained to the second high
est office In the gift OF the American
people. he preferred to remain In digni.
ned retirement, a fact which we regard
as to his credit.
To our mind there was something
peculiarly unnatural rs well as sad
In the manner Of his death, so allen
ter. One Of the best known and best
loved men personally of his time,
falls literally by the wayslde. unrec-
ognized, as II he had been a stranger

such fate for Schuyler Colfaxg In the

end Of his intimate personal friend, Pres
ident Lincoln, In the most famous OF his
lectures. mo last words OF affection to
weeping wife and children were allowed

and we have no reason to doubt, was

IT Is rumored that the present Legis-
lature intends to abolish the bureau of
History, Statistics and Insurance. This
office, which has been so ably filled by
DIR. V. o. King and his successors, is
now in charge of our distinguished fell
low citizen, General ii. p. Bee; no bet
ter person could have been selected to
I'LL that office by Governor Ireland. The
Generals education and knowledge Of
the Spanish language eminently fits him
for the position. Instead Of abollshing
the office our Legislature should make
liberal appropriation for the purchase Of
all books containing something of Texas
history, and to procure copies of manu-
scripts concerning the history of Texas,
that are daily becoming more scarce,
for, although much has been written
about Texas, and many books decorated
with the name of History of Texas, the
want of data. time and expenditure nee
essary to procure them are probably the
cause of the incomplete and incorrect
manner in which the history of Texas
has been written up to this date. princi-
pally the period embraced in the early
discovery of Texas, 1918, and the declara-
tion of independence from Spain in 1921.
The writer has visited the archives Of
Monterey, Saltillo, San Luis Potosi and
the City of Mexico, and fyund little or
nothing concerning Texas. Much of
the archives Of Mexico have been
destroyed, purloined and sold for
wrapping paper to the retail gro
GERS Of the interior. The dis
tinguished author and Mexican patriot,
Don Carlos Maria Bustamente, accuses
Don Lorenzo Zavala and Licenciado
Guido y Guido and others to have caused
q large portion of the archives in the city
Of Mexico to have been sold to the man
ufacturers OF fire crackers and to have
derived no small profit of said sales, etc.
| After the confiscation of church proper
| ty by President Juares much OF the
archives the converts and large por-
ton of their fine paintings and libraries
became private property, and to-day the
most important manuscripts concerning
the history OF Texas are the property OF
private individuals. Our State should,
without delay, make proper approprl-
alton to secure copies of those important
documents and perpetuate them by pub
LEGATION. This should have been done
years ago, and, no doubt, that historical
documents would have been then NOR,
easily and more oheaply collected. Nc
time should be lost, and our Legislature
should make not only the necessary ap
preparation to keep up the Bureau o
History, Statistics and Insurance on
proper footing, but make the necessary
appropriation for the distinguished
citizen who Is now ut the head of tn,
same, to purchase or cause copies of al
manuscripts necessary for the history o
Texas to be made, have them translated
properly compiled and printed at tn,
expense of the State.

Ir LOOKS somewhat out OF the order Of
things in this day of enlightenment and
progress to read about "casting out
witches" and all such hoodoo business,
but the following item from the Corsl-
cana Courier would indicate that the
days OF old salem witohcraft had not
passed away altogether. 1t says: "Down
near winkler. n child Of Mr.. Michael
Banner, superstltious old German, has
been seriously III, with mysterious
disease. lie became possessed with the
idea that n neighbor had bewitched the
child. lie sent for DR.. Iagerum, an
old faith doctor in Henderson county,
who has the reputation of being able to
cast out witches, who said the child was
possessed with an evil spirit. He fast
ened sack around Its neck which he
said would cause the child to cry when
ever the witch manifested itself and gave
the parents thorny switch with which
to drive 1t away. The child continuing
to grow worse another doctor was called
in. The sack was removed and thrown
away, since which time the child con-
tinues to improve"
