THE BROWNING BILL.

AS the days go by and members OF
the legislature give the subject cooler
and quieter second thought, they are
inevitably drawn to the conclusion
that Texas must be creditably repre-.
scented at the Worlds fair. The only
question that remains is, how can this
best be done. The answer that nat
urally suggests itself is, the state
should pass a sufficiently large appro-
priation for the purpose. But to this
it is replied the constitution forbids
an appropriation to encourage immi-
grafton. But does this answer en-
tirely cover the case? In the first
place is the object of the Worlds fair
immigration? Do the United States
mean to use that fair for immigration
purposes? The STATESMAN thinks not.
It is heard everywhere throughout
the United States daily 1--WE have
enough foreigners in this country"
surely this fair was not designed to
bring in more of them. The better
classes OF Europe are always welcome,
but this fair cannot be construed to be
an invitation to the world to come in
and possess us. Who will contend
that immigration was the purpose of
the fairs Of London in 1851 and 1862,
of the fairs Of Paris in 1855, '67, rs and
'S9 or OF our own great centennial ex-
hibiton in Philadelphia in 1876?
These fairs were great national
events as they were also great schools
OF learning for the people. SO it will
be with the Worlds fair in 1898. The
United States have memorable
event to celebrate and they must do
we'll. The Federal government ha
acted literally toward getting up u
strictly national exhibit, and now it is
the imperative duty of each and every
state to do their part towards supple
menting that national exhibit with a
ocal, state exposition Of their differ
mt resources, and this to the end
that the fair may be the most perfect
exponent possible Of what the United
States really are. 1t cannot be
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1891-04-02

doubted that the nations OF the oiu
world will send over the very best IN
their shops; can we then who have
organized the fair fail to do as well!
Would that fair be complete with the
greatest state in the Union lelt
out? Would this be just TO the
Union, would it be just to ourselves!
Let us face the case as it ia. Inc
United States in that fair are not
batting a hook to catch immigrants
they are simply erecting a monument
in memory of an event that gave US
birth as a nation. They are building
sush monument as they deem
most typical of the natural results
flowing from that event-a monument
of our achievements since that lme'
If Texas bad been asked to contribute
500 900 as her share in the erection
of national monument to Columbus,
such list being headed by the federal
government and seconded by the
states, answer would not the appro-
priation be made? And now since
simply the character OF the monument
is changed, since it is not money to
nut in stone and granite that is
wanted, but an exhibit OF what Texas
is and has done, can we fail to favor
ably respond to the call upon us?

A STATE QUESTION.
by THE

The opposition to the idea OF con-
centration OF the higher state courts
are challenged to give any better rea-
son for their opposition than local
interest. On the contrary those VINO
favor it do so because of many potent
arguments.
LIST. The reason that first called the
perambulating courts into existence
no longer holds good, and the walk
around should cease.
End. The state has gone to the ex'
pense OF providing these courts with
magnificent quarters in the capitol
and they should be constantly occu-
pied.
3rd. 1t would be great saving Ci
time if the courts did not make these
moves three times year.
4th. 1t would be a great saving OF
money to the state in not having to
send libraries and papers around with
the judges and in stopping all entries
of transfers OF cases.
9Th. 1t would give litigants the
right to have their cases tried in the
order in which filed, and not as now
upon the accident OF the different
terms.
9th. 1t would be an act OF justice
to the undergrad and overworked
Judges, who by the present system are
compelled to spend more money than
if permanently located at
one place.
7th. 1t would reunite the families OF
the judges, giving the father the OPP
portunity always OF having his
children under his eye, while con-
tributing by his advice much to their
education and life. In the content of
his own home he is more fitted to do his
best work for the state than while as
an exile from that home he plods a
weary round of duty.
9Th. The lawyers Of the state gene
rally favor concentration, as at the
state capital they can conduct more
business for one and. all Of their
clients than at any other place in the
state,
Every argument Of state and indi-
vidual economy, OF equity between
litigants, of regard for home life, Of
exacting the judges best work, and OF
convenience to the legal profession
generally, all combine to stamp con-
centration of the higher courts at the
capital as being the part of infinite
wisdom. This is not local issue, it
is broad state question that should
be decided alone on broad, sound
reasoning.

A Deer on the Track.

ing cast Sunday afternoon few miles
east of Mast Hope, on the Delaware
division, Engineer Edward Taylor,
espied largo deer descending tho al
most perpendicular bluff on the north
side of the track. The deer reached
the track few yards in advance of
the engine, and those on the engine
expected to sec it run down, but in
stead 1T started down the track in ad-
vance OF the train for q distance OF q
quarter of n mile and then bounded
down the bank toward the river. The
men on the engine saw the deer until
the train went out of sight. 1t was a
buck with five prongs, and must have
weighed in the neighborhood of 500
pounds. 1t seemed to be greatly fa-
tigued, and was probably started up by
party of hunters in the heavy wood:
back of Mast Hope. Taylor and his
fireman confidently expected to have t

The sohool-Hook Question.

1t is pleasing TO be able to record in
these days, when the prices of almost
every commodity in daily use are ad-
vancing. either on account of high tar
i'll protection, or from some othey SYM
pathetic causes, that there is one sta
pie which has undergone, and is still
undergoing a reduction in price. We
refer to school books. There is per-
haps no article which has been the
subject of so much discussion through
out the farming communities as that oil
the schoolbook. There has been
much complaint about high prices, and
these prices have generally been
charged to the publishers, but not
rightfully. for investigation proves
that the publishers prices are reason
able. The trouble is traceable to those
retailers who charge outrageous prices
to make large profits and to the peo-
Dle who do not avail themselves of the
cheapest market.
The contract system inaugurated by
the American Book Company, of Chi
cago the largest single book publish
ing concern in the country and whose
books are used throughout the length
and breadth of the land, has resulted
in wide awake school district boards
and close buyers of books purchasing
direct from the company at contract
prices. These contract prices are
twenty per cent lower than the former
wholesale prices.
The question has often been asked,
"WhO are some of the school book
