of facts presented them by the county
commissioners court that the supervising
architect had no authority to change the
contract under which he acted
and the Montopolis bridge was

question of fact and for the commission

decide. We appreciate the Inconvenience
this delay may prove to those who are CIT

think this temporary discomforture is of
such importance as to coerce the county
Into taking any hasty or ill advised action.
The county is buying bridge for many
years to come, and it is the sworn duty OF

that she is getting what she is asked to

Successful Business Men.

Who are our most successful business
men? Go out on the street and look
them over. You won't find them men
who have pale cheeks. They are not thin,
emaciated men. They are not nervous,
irritable men. They are men whose faces
indicate robust health. Men with good
blood, and plenty of it. That's the secret
of their success. A man whose blood is
thin and weak, and poisoned with I'M
purities, is never successful like his
healthy neighbor. You cannot expect
him to be, for without rich, strong, nour-
ishing blood he will lack the swim" and
"push" which the man must have who
would succeed. Such men should use
Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
to restore their impoverished blood to Its
normal condition. By the use of this
great blood purifier and builder up of the
system they may put themselves in a
condition which will enable them to WIN
the success they are anxious to achieve.

Cotton Worms.
From the Dallas News

rEOn Ju6 DAllhS NeNb.
A Rains county farmer had $50 acres of
sandy land in cotton last year. He put
oil lights in his field at night and made
l40 bales of cotton. A heighbor with
about the same acreage had no lamps and
made seven bales.
think every paper in the state should
publish this fact and comment on it.
Lamps cost about 25 cents and will burn
about cents worth of oil a night. The
following from the Paris News will be of
interest in this connection:
The Becknell Prairie agricultural So
ciety, organized to protect our CROP 8
against the ravages of the cotton worm
and to discuss all matters pertaining to
Horticulture and to the improvement of
stock, now boasts of a membership of
about fifty of our best farmers, All who
have put out lights report that they are
destroying the parsley worm millers by
the thousands. Those that sting the
young squares are the most easily caught,
and l feel assured that l have
caught the most of those on my
cotton land. We are catching some
boil worm millers, and peep into our
pans would lead one to believe that the
whole miller family had given up the
ghost and yielded to the Becknell Prairie
society. The present indications are that
we will be able to put out lights on three
fourths of the prairie. Observation con-
vinces me that the miller does not fly a
great distance from where it is Matched
unless carried by the winds, and when
once destroyed on certain field the field
is not in much danger from neighboring
lands. We are putting one light to five
acres, and regard the experiment so far
a success. john MARTIN.

WHITTIER'S POEM.

We have seen much severe criticism of
Whittier's poem written for the Centen-
NAL ceremonies, that it was fiat, empty
and monstrously rhymed. 1t seems critics
can differ, for the New York Herald has
this unstinted praise OF the aged poets
effort
"What grand old man John G. Whit
tier is He is more than 80 years of age,
bat he struck the chord of patriotism in
that poem with the vigor and skill of
youth. It's full of fire, oil. divine enthusi-
asm. The choice of words is something
marvellous and their music is like chino
of bells.
Such lines as these will be quoted on
every national occasion and stir the hearts
of the future as they have stirred ours:-
When the new era, long desired, began,
And In its need the hour had found the man
In world wide wonder list'ning peoples bent
Their gaze on Freedoms greatsexperiment.
Wise beyond lore, and without weakness good;
Calm In the strength of lswless recitude.
The change for which he prayed and sought
In that sharp agony was wrought;
No partial interest draws its alien line
'Twixt North and South, the cypress and the pine
A poet is creature of moods, and when
verses are demanded they are apt to be
forced, angular and feeble. But Whittier
poured out his soul in loving and expan-
sive generosity in this poem. 1t may well
serve as his benediction on a people whose
most brilliant pages of history are yet to
be written"

800 Reward. 800.

The readers of The STATESMAN will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been able
to cure in all its stages, and that is
oatarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure now known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being a constitution
al disease requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken inter

mucus surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the Foundation of the disease and
giving the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in its curative powers that

to cure. Send for list of testimonials.

THE TEXAS PRESS ASSo CITATION IN NO
SENSE A "TRgST."

The STATESMAN has noticed some des-
ultory discussion of the question, but has
believed the position and work of the
Texas Press association we're too we'll un-
derstood by all for US to pay any atten-
ton to the carping criticisms from jeal-
GUS or impecunious sources. But, as the
question seems to have gotten outside the
limits of the state, the following editorial
from the pen of Mr.. Frank Grice, the
president of the Texas Press association
and editor of the San Antonio Express, is
reprinted as finally setting at rest such
ridiculous statements as have been set
afoat by designing parties-those want
ing something for nothing. The editorial
reads:
The attention of the Express has been
called to the following paragraph printed
by the San Francisco Bulletin:
"The trust bill, which is law of Texas,
is dissolving all the trusts which had been
formed in that state. The bill will destroy
the Texas Press association, which has
controlled the Associated Press dispatches
for five years and prevented their publica-
ton in rival morning papers in cities
where morning paper already exists"
The Bulletin is evidently misinformed
The "trust bill" is not dissolving all the
trusts which have been formed ia Texas,
for the sim pie reason that there have been
none formed. The Texas Press association
l. 9th 70 70 l.
cause the Texas Press association is in no
sense trust. Nor is it a monopoly. Nor is
it "cormorant." Nor is it "blood
sucker" The Texas Press association is
simply a corporation formed for the pur-
pose of selling the freshest intelligence
to the people. The columns of the var
ious newspapers forming 1t are the mar
ket stalls where the goods are displayed
for sale. Any one of the numerous papers
of this state who have been olamoring for
the downfall of the "press trust" can have
the dispatches if they want them-aDd
ara able to pay for them. They could
have had them at any time within the
past five years if they had wanted them
and been able to pay for them. The
truth is, as the Express has more than
once pointed out, the cry against the
Texas Associated Press comes mainly
from those journals which have not the
enterprise to print telegrsphic news and
desire to blind their readers to the fact.
Many of them have been offered the dis
patches time and again and have inva-
riably refused to take them. The Bulletin
may rest assured that the Press associa-
tion of Texas is oil right. 1t is not rob-
bling anybody. The daily thunderers are
still quoted at five cents.

WHAT with devastating forest fires in
drouthy seasons and always in the fall,
with cyclones at any and all times, and
the terrible rigors of long and relentless
winters, the people of the northwest, we
should imagine, have anything but a
pleasant time of it, and the thing that
surprises US is that they should consent to
live in such country. Have they never
been told of the charms which enchant in
TexasY Don't they know of our equa-
BILE climate, our marvelously rich soil,
the variety of our products, our immunity
from terrible tornadoes and such storms
as imperil their homes and lives, and,
which especially should catch them, the
abundance of our cheap, and yet, when i'm
proved, most valuable lands! Don't they
know all these things, or, if not,
is it not the fault of Texas
they are in such ignorance' II such
truths, such convincing facts, were brought
to the ears and homes of those tempest
tossed, snow-bound, fire-scorched, many
times half-starved and life-imperiled peo-
pie of the northwest, how long would it be
before cur millions of acres of vacant
lands would be populated with tillers of
the soil, a magnificent, most desirable
community.

7. GRANGER STUART, M. D., F. R. s. E.,
Ordinary Physician to II. M. the Queen in
Scotland, Professor of Practice of Physic
in the University of Edinburgh, writes:
"Acute bronchitis is common especially in
the advanced stages of Bright's disease,
and tends to pass into the chronic state.
Phthisis Consumption in its various
forms is found occasionally associated
with these renal (kidney) affections. 1t
usually proves fatal while the renal NAL
ady is yet in its early stage" 1t thus be-
comes evident that consumption and
bronchitis are intimately associated with
kidney disease. and Warmers Safe Cure
should be taken early in the disease to
prevent the damaging influence the kid

The crowd around the scaffold in Mis-
souri, on which were hanged Fri
day the three Bald Knobbers, who
by holding up their hands signi-
fed their willingness to aid the children of
one of the condemned, acted from impulse
and no well-grounded charitable intention.
They will forget that assent to the con-
demned mans plea as soon as the memory
of the execution wears dim. But if they
do not, the injury is pertinent, why should
such guilty wretoh's appeal have more
weight than the daily cry that is going up
from the poor and innocently unfortunate
of the landH The curse of the world is
that it is too melodramatio.

Attention, Florida War Veterans !
AUSTIN, Nav IL,

To the Editor of the Statesman.
From some cause the government, in
showing her appreciation of services rem
dered by her soldiers from the revolu-
ton of 1776 down to the present time by
granting pensions, has entirely left the
soldiers who fought the Seminole Indians
from 1885 to 1910 unprovided for and
their services unappreciated. If you will
correspond with me we will try and fall
upon some plan by which the attention of
congress may be called to the considera-
ton of our claims, that justice may be
done us ere it is too late.
