4 SPECIiI SESSION.

1t is quite probable that Governor
Hogg has not yet fully decided whether
or not TO call & special session of the
legislature. His being the response
bility for step so important, every
body will conccde to him the unques-
toned right to consider well the ques-
ton in all its bearings before coming
TO conclusion about it. That is not
only right, but duty as well, which
he owes to the vast interests over
which he presides as chief magistrate.
Thoughtless persons, who have since
the adjournment of the legislature in
April been crying for special session,
wonder why it has not been called be-
lore now. The least reelection would
teach them that a special session could
not be called until the result of the re-
cent election should be known-that is
to say. it would be the height of folly
to call it before it was possible to in
clude among the matters to be recon-
mended for appropriate legislation such
amendments as may have been adopted
by the people, if any of them were, at
the August election. The result OF
that election viii be ascertained on the
Goth. Soon thereafter, we have no
doubt, the governor will decide what
is to be done with reference TO a SPECIAL
session.

the witches.

In Connecticut and in Rhode Island
there are also old towns which are in a
general sense Of contemporary origin with
those of Massachusetts. New Haven, for
instance, was settled in 1855, and for
twenty-four years continued to be dis
tinct colony; then it was united to Con
necticut. Aud New London was settled
in I649 By the same John Winthrop who,
nineteen years before, had planted col
ony upon the peninsula which now is Bos-
ton. In the same year in which New
Haven WAS settled, Roger Williams and
the other gentlemen OF the Company Of
Providence Plantations" settled Proyi-
dence and Newport. in Rhode Island. II
we are to believe what some antiQuarians
would have US, We must think that New
port was much older than this. for the re-

Columbus crossed the ocean from Spain.
However this may be, they did not stay,

well let it rest that the Roger Williams
colonists were the first to make town OF
that plaee.
Every schoolboy in America knows that
jamestown, in Virginia, was the first
permanent town settled in any of the orig
inal thirteen colonies, and he will not hest

date Of this settlement was 1907. There

appears to be no other alternative.
And as the people are plainly in favor

instead of two Years hence, in order
that they may secure equality of repre-

THE esteemed Waco Day makes note
that the Fort Worth GAZETTE thinks
that if Mr. Mills is elected speaker it
will insure a Republican victory
throughout the country next year"
That is an inaccurate way Of putting
it. The GAZETTE docs not think that
the election of Mr.. Mills will insure a
Republican victory next year. THE
GAZETTE has never said it thought
such thing. What The GAZETTE
said was that the election OF a Southern
speaker would weaken the Democratic
party in the North. and by doing so
contribute TO Republican success. This
speaker need not necessarily be Mr..
Mills. The same effect would be pro-
duced by the election of Crisp or Me-
MILAN. If Southern man is TO be
speaker. the preference of this paper is
for Mills. But as we value Demo-
cratic victory above the advancement
OF 4 personal favorite, we repeat that
the Democratic party needs now TO put
down the personal ambition OF its ia
vorite sons in this part OF the country,
and elect some man for speaker who
will add strength TO the party in the
close and doubtful states OF the North.
That's what The GAZETTE is here for.

THE DEMOCRATIC LEADERS.

The almost unanimous vote OF the
New York Democratic convention in
nominating Roswell z. Flower for gov
ernor proves that the tales of Demo-
cratic strife and division don't amount
to much as to Flower. To he chosen on
the first ballot, and to get 334 votes out
OF 3I1, shows such an overwhelming
preponderance in his favor that the
disaffected, If any there be, will have
no ground for opposition. a united
Democracy in New York means Dem
ocratic victory.
Mr.. Flower has always proved him
self Il strong man before the people,
though he has seldom asked for Office.
He was elected to the Forty-seventh
congress, and at the expiration OF his
term retired from public duties, but
was taken up by his party and forced TO
run again, and was elected to the Fifty
first and Fifty-second congresses,
Three great state campaigns are
now about TO begin, which are TO de-
eide the question of political supre-
macy in New York, Ohio and Iowa.
The result of the elections in these
states this fall will have an important
bearing in the presidential contest Of
1892. The advantage is slightly with
the Democrats in New York, for in
of years that state is usually Demo-
cratic. In Ohio the advantage is in
the same way with the Republicans.
Iowa was never thought to be worth
making a fight for until two years ago,
when Boies. Democrat, very uneX-
pectedly defeated the Republicans,
and he has made so successful and
popular governor that his reelection
is predicted. But the advantage all lies
on the side of the Republicans.
Should the Democrats carry New
York and the Republicans Ohio and
Iowa the elections will be looked upon
as ''dogfall" from which neither party
can claim an advantage. But Re-
publican victory in New York, or u
Democratic victory in Ohio and Iowa,
would mean much in shaping affairs
for the great struggle of 1892, and the
party that makes such an inroad into
the enemy's ground will have a great
advantage in the prestige Of success in
entering upon the presidential cam

Professor Bryce in his great work, "The
American Commonwealth" said that this
was particularly so of the United States.
So, therefore, | think it vii! be wise to con
tinue these anniversary celebrations in ali
parts of the country. In Gloucester, Mass,
one of the oldest towns in New England,
preparations are already in progress for
celebration OF the two hundred aud fitch
anniversary of the Incorporation Of that
town. This place, which originally in
cluded the whole of Cape Ann, was really
settled in 1924, but it was sixteen years
later that it was incorporated, and took its
name from the old English cathedral city,
whence many of the first settlers had come.
The old Gloucester of Massachusetts may
seem Young to the mother town which is
of British origin, having been built pre-
vious to the Roman occupation. But not
outstanding this, high civilities will be
exchanged between the new town and the
old, and messages of congratulation will
be flashed under the sea. while formal aG-
dresses will he carried acress the waters.
There are several older towns than this,
however, in New England, and the most
notable are Plymouth, where the Pilgrims
landed in 1890; Salem, which John Eadi-
colt settled in 162S and Boston, where
John Winthrops party settled in 1880.
OF Boston l need not speak. Every school
boy knows her history by heart, and if he
does not, be should waste no time in learn
ing much more of it than could ever he
limited at in a newspaper article. Plym-
outh, with the rock which is the shrine OF
every true New Highlander, needs nothing
that could say which is not more fittingly
said at the New England gatherings which
take place every year in every considerable
settlement in America. Salem went in
for religion at the beginning, as the first
church organization in New England was
effected there in 1920. The zeal of the peo-
pie of this old town in this particular direc-
ton eliminated some sixty years later
when they hanged the Quakers and burned
the witches.

Different Ways CT Stopping BIe ding Cut

Different Ways CT Stopping bleeding Cut.
A wine merchant said: "My cenarnen
have n funny way of stopping bleeding.
They think nothing OF cut finger or hand,
or even of a Ia; ga wound. They run to the
nearest spirit cSsk, or claret, il spirits are
not handy, and let a few drops fall on the
wound. 1t aits ss an immediate styptic.
Taen big dusty old cobweb is taken from
the nearest bottle or corner of a bin and
clapped on tight over the cut or abrasion.
Cobwe5s are splendid healing agents."
Sailors" said another man, ARE never
at loss under such circumstances; their
favorite styptic at sea is a bit of unraveled
tarred rope. On land they will take the
Guild Of tobacco from their mouth, or the
lining Of their cap, and its effect is aston
ishing. But have seen man wild drunk
after such a quid has been tied over
wound. I suppose the nicotine gets into
the blood and acts as an into1icant."
Carpenters" said another gentleman,
''if they cut themselves pick up a handful
of fine shavings and clap them on the
wound, and joiners swear by dab of glue,
but one of the guaintest things | ever saw
used was byan old farmer up in Chester
county. He got his hand badly torn by
bit of old wire fence, and it bled consider
ably. Without thought he stopped down
and dug up a handful of soil, spat on it
and worked it quickly into a paste, and
laid it on the wound and bound it up with
lis handkerchief. In an astonishingly
short time he was at work again as if moth
ing had happened. New York Recorder.

St. Augustine, in Florida, is the Oldest
town in the United States of purely Eu-
ropean origin, rs it was settled by the
Spaniards under Menendez III 1868. How
they who built the old fort would open
their eyes if they could see what has been
done there in the last few years, during
which there has been waved over the
place the magic wand which financial
kings possess, bidding palaces to arise
which are almost marvels of the world.
From this hurried sketch it will be seen
that there are many places in the land not
exactly young-that is, places which have.
SO TO speak, cut their first teeth. But while
pondering on such things it is well to re
member that youth, after all, is the best
possession of either man or state. After
youth comes maturity; after maturity old
age and then inevitable decay.
