THE MONEY Is C0MIYG.

A great deal of Eastern capital viii seek profit
able Western investment during the coming
spring. That is the opinion Of great many in
telligent careful observers of the financial sit
uation The condition of the Eastern money
market is favorable for such move. Money is
very easy and funds are steadily accommodating.
The growing distrust of railroad securities ow-
ing to the poor showing recently made, has had
strong tendency to bring about this condition
of affairs. Eastern capitalists soon grow weary
of boarding money that is not self-accumulat-
ing, and are already casting about for some
promising field in which to invest their funds
It was q like condition of affairs which
prompted large Western investments three
and four years ago. The field is more
inviting now than it was then. Throughout the
West during the past year and half there has
been constant liquidation of values. The air
which was surcharged with speculative fever
has been cleared up, and values have shrunk to
their true level. In many instances values have
been carried below their true level, and this is
one reason why the field issuch an inviting one
Unless Eastern capital has no confidence in the
future of the West, it is difficult to see how it
can fail to take advantage of the present oppor-
tunity, and place some Of the money which is
earning nothing in the East TO most excellent adj
vantage in the west.
The western harvest is ripe for the judicieus
INVESTOR Minneapolis Tribune.
@If 'ethe Western harvest is ripe, - and
if Western people are bestirring them
selves to attract the cleaners, what cam
not be said of the Southern harvest and
what should not the Southern people be up
and doing to attract the cleaners? The
West, with all its population and wealth
and varied industries is in the field to at
tract the accumulated millions of moneyin
the East; the South needs this money far
more than does the West; Texas needs it
far more than does Minnesota, and
what is Texas doing to secure it? Are
the people waiting on the persis-
tency of poorly patronized newspa-
pers to impress outside capital
with the advantages offered in this state?
Is the Twenty-first legislature so busy
with its railroad commission bills that it
waits on a meagerly supported 'immi-
grafton bureau, with its few thousands
of maps and pamphlets, TO induce capital
to come to the state?
What viii the legislature do, what viii
the people do, to attract TO Texas some
portion of this capital grown so large as
to set the enterprising people of Western
states at work to secure some portion of
it? Texas needs this capital to develop its
resources and to enrich its people beyond
their widest dreams, but, to secure it,
Texas must work for it-and, alas, the
people of Texas are so full of conceit
over what the very immensely of the

American Newspaper publishers.
London lont. Advertiser.


The annual meeting of the American
Newspaper publishers association viii
be held at the Hoffman house, New York,
Wednesday morning, February IS. This
organization, though young, is begun
ming to make itself felt in the newspaper
world in America. It's objects are the
advancement of the business depart
ments of the journals throughout the
country. It aims to build up mutual
interest among newspaper proprietors,
which can only be accom-
plished by a common sympathy
and one general line of conduct in
the management of the advertising de-
partment. It collects information re-
garling the responsibility OF advertisers,
the improvements in machinery and any
matter of interest to the newspaper pub
Usher, distributing it promptly from
central bureau, established especially for
that purpose. The high stand ug it has
already attained may be judged from the
fact that the Advertising agents asso-
citation, an organization for the protee-
ton of advertising agencies, bases its
membership upon the recommendation Of
the executive committed of the American
newspaper publishers association.
Thus the latest devices in printing are
learned Immediately, and the standing
of advertisers followed closely. The
value of this to a business manager is in
calculable.
Another important feature is the gath
ering together annually Of the newspaper
publishers for the discussion of the meth
DDS of conducting paper. The benefit
resulting is already making itself felt
among the members of the association,
who are looking forward to the coming
meeting with interest.
An interesting feature of the conven-
ton win be an exhibition of the type

Bayard is Right on Samoa.
Philadelphia Record.

Secretary Bayard s explanation of the
Samoan situation is so clear that he who
runs may read He shows that the adj
ministration has al1 ays had a well de-
fined policy with reference to Samoan af-
fairs-a policy of friendly interest so far
as the other powers interested in that
group Of islands have been concerned.
The treaty between the United States and
Samoa contained nothing on the subject
of the establishment of protectorate
over the islands, SO that any attempt on
our part to proclaim such a pFoteetorate
would have been clearly unauthorized and
q source of offense TO Great Britain
and Germany. The good Offices of the
United States have been used again
and again in behalf OF q restoration of
order, but without effect; and, now that
the resources of diplomacy have been ex-
hausted, the question simply is: Shall
the United States declare themselves
ready to fight, if need be, in order to
secure independence to the Samoans?
This is for congress to decide, since with
that body resides the constitutional
power of determining the question of
peace or war.
There Is no obscurity about such
statement as this, and all the cheap
jingoisn in the country cannot upset the
logic of the indisputable facts.

And TT us as close as e,garments we wear.
Sorrow comes into our homes unlimited
Robbing our hearts Of its treasures of song;
Lovers grow. cold. and our friendships are
slignted,
Yet somehow or other we worry along.
'AIidstthe sweet blossoms that smile in our faces
Grow the rank weeds that would poison and
And e'eT in the midst of earth's beautiful places
There always is something that isn't quite
Yet oft from a rock we may pluck gay flower,
And drink from a spring in a desolate waste;
They come to the heart like a heavenly dover.
And naught IS so sweet to the eye or the taste.
Everyday toll is everyday blessing,
Though poverty's cottage and crust we may
share;
Weak is the back ON which burdens are pressing,
But stout is the heart that is strengthened by
prayer.
Somehow or other the pathway grows brighter
Just when we mourn there was none to be-
friend;
Hope, in the heart makes the burden grow
And Somehow or other we get to the end.

THE FOLLY OF STATE LANDL ORD
ISM.

Lille FOLLI OF SIZ41E LANDLOItD-
ISM.
Ex-C commissioner Walsh deprecated
the alienation Of the school lands as a
catastrophe, - and persuaded the
legislature to adopt a plan of manage
ment which had for its object their re-
tention as "an ever increasing prlnci-
pal. - This system of state landlordisln
went into operation six years ago, with
the lease rate fixed at Scents an acre. 1t
was boastfully predicted by its advocates
that within a year lands would be leased
at 90 cents an acre. After a trial of
six years it is now proposed as a dernier
resort to reduce the lease price to 3
or even 2 cents an acre, in order to
find lessees for considerable amount
of the public lands 1t is noteworthy,
also, that the value of these lands upon
cash market is no greater than it was
six years ago.
Mr.. Walsh 8 plan has been thoroughly
tried and by the test of experience has
been proved a failure 1t yet remains to
try the plan OF Edmund Burke, who,
attacking in the house of commons
system similar to that of Mr.. Walsh, de-
clared:
conceive it would be unwise to screw it (the
price of public lands) up to the utmost, or even
to suffer bidders to enhance, according to their
eagerness, the purchase of objects, wherein
the expense of that purchase may
weaken fle capItal To he emuIoved in their c1ll-
tivation. The principal revenue which 1 pro-
pose to draw from the uncultivated wastes is to
spring from the improvement and popuIction of
the Kingdom; events infinitely more advan-
tageous to the revenues of the crown than the
rents of the best landed estate which it can
hold. It is thus would dispose of the unproft-
able estates of the crown; throw them into the
mass of private property by which they will
come through tn ecourse OF cultivation and
through the political secretions of the state into
well regulated revenue.

THE New York Sun punctures a popu-
lar error with regard to the wealth of
United States senators. The New York
paper declares that a majority of the
senators are poor men, comparatively
speaking. There are rich senators, just as
there are rich representatives; but in the
case of either house it is undoubtedly
true that nine out OF ten of the statesmen
who possess great fortunes have earned
their money themselves by the exercise
of those qualities of energy, industry and
enterprise, which have likewise made
them prominent in politics.
