ASTHMA

lis common error to suppose every dis
ease which is attended by oppressed breath
ing to be Asthma or Phthisic. We have short
ness of breath in Consumption and Pneumonia
just as we do in Asthma, only that in these
diseases it is always present, whereas in Asthma
Asthma is a spasmodic disease of the lungs,
which manifests itself in periodic attacks or
fits" 1t comes on suddenly and is attended
with great difficulty of breathing while it lasts;
but when the attack is over the patient breathes
almost as well as in health.
Nervous, Humid and Dry Asthma are names
given to different forms of this disease En-
physema is another and more inveterate kind
of Asthma, while Hay Fever or Rose Cold is
peculiar variety of Asthma which occurs at
certain IS season OF fee year aaeh OF these
others in symptoms, but practically these dis
tinctions are of very little value. 1t does not
matter to the patient when form 10 OF Asthma a
all. In one case the expectoration becomes
yellow, and we call it bronchial. In another
it is light, and we call it dry: When he coughs
face, we say he has Humoral Asthma. In
Nervous Asthma there is very little expecter
alton of any kind Hay Fever always begins
a clear water runs from the nose and the eyes
before the Asthma fit comes on In Emphysema
tinues SO in the interval between the fits
while the shortness OF breath is increased on
the slightest exertion.
1t is foolish conceit OF many people to be-
lieve that if they have Asthma they cannot get
Consumption The truth is the very opposite.
They are more liable to fall into Consumption
because they have the Asthma. Another idea
is that the Asthma itself is not a dangerous dis
ease, and yet the published bills Of mortality
for this city prove to all who read them that
great numbers lose their lives every year by
this foul destroyer of our homes.
without courage and perseverance nothing
is curable But with these, aided by proper
and skillful treatment, Asthma can be cured
even after the lungs are extensively diseased.
Persons desiring treatment by this system Of
practice can use the remedies at home as well as
at our office, and which will cause no incon-
venience or hindrance from businefs whatever.
Every case. of Asthma is durable. Eastern
visitors and invalids will be wise in being
cured before they return home,
Those who desire to consult me in regard
to their cases had better call at the Office for an
examination, but If impossible to visit the Office
personally, can write for list of questions and
circular, both of which will be sent free of
charge. Address

MARK THE CONTRAST.

California is not as big a state as
Texas, nor has it much above half the
population. II has six congressman
and Texas eleven. But what ii
lacks in size and population it more
than makes up in pluck, enterprise and
dash. And herein Texas may learn a
useful lesson if it will. The legislature
OF California has voted an appropri-
alton of $500, 900 for an exhibit at the
Worlds fair. and besides that, author
lied the counties OF the state TO spend
more than half i million if they SO
desire.
True enough, it may be said that
California has no troublesome constitu-
ton to clog enterprise. and cramp her
energies. But what of that? If her
legislature were as phlegmatic and in
different towards the fair as the Texas
body, preteXt Of some sort would be
easily found on which to base refusal.
If the constitution had not furnished
our own Legislators with a sufficient
pretext, something else would, in all
probability, so that it was not after all
question of 'can We" but of 1--WE
don't want to-" The discussion OF the
Browning bill showed this careless and
Indifferent spirit quite plainly.
The Californians appear to have been
actuated by a much more enlightened
and progressive spirit, realizing clearly
that laissez faire is as fatal to state
as 10 an individual, and that the good
that is possible TO a state can be at
tanned only by rustling for it as indi-
viduals have to do.
What the legislature failed 10 do, the
progressive citizens Of Texas must do.
The fate, or at least the prosperity of the
state rests in their hands. They are
charged with the responsibility of pre-
senting this great state at the fair,
decked out in queenly robes with all
her blushing honors thick upon her.
Neither California nor any other state
should be allowed to out do or surpass
her.
If Texas wants people and money.
she must let the world know that fact
The notion exists at the North that she
does not. That erroneous idea needs

MALICE BASED ON FALsEHOOD.

The Crockett Courier gives full sway
TO personal ill-will and makes suspi-
cion take the place of actuality in dis
cussing the appointment of ex-senator
Reagan on the railroad commission.
With positiveness born Of conviction
the Courier asserts:
1t was almost an open secret at Austin
several weeks before the legislature ad-
jounCd that Hogg had rendered the chair
manshIp of the commission 10 Senator Rca-
gan Governor Hogg knew before the leg
stature adjourned that Reagan would ac-
cept position on the commission. Then
why were all the events in this important
transaction so timed and shaped that the
legislature was not allowed to elect Senator
Rcagan's successor! Was he afraid
the legislature would elect some other man
than Horace Chiffon rs a successor 10 Rea-
gan, Did he apprehend, and justly, too,
that an election by the legislature would
deprive him OF the power of rewarding a
political frienu,H
What is the basis for these assertions
and insinuations?
If it were true that Senator Reagan
had been appointed on the commission,
anu ldl dCCcptto LllC appointment. ullu
had so notified the governor, before the
adjournment Of the legislature, it was
indeed an act of the most fragrant po-
litical improperly for the governor to
withhold from the legislature such in
formation, keeping it locked up in his
own breast until after adiour nment, to
stave off the election OF a United States
Senator by that body and save to him
self the appointment OF Senator Rea-
gan's successor.
THE GAZETTE can say, however,
putting its assertion on the best OF
evidence, that Senator Reagan had not,
up to the time the legislature adjourned,
signified TO Governor Hogg his ac-
ceptance of the position on the commits
sion that had been offered him. He
had not, indeed. decided to accept it:
but so far to the contrary, he stead
tasty declined the offer, even when it
was pressed upon him by the governor
at the time of his visit to Austin, on the
day the legislature adjourned. But the
persistence of Governor Hogg prevailed

COMMISSIONER REAGAN.

Senator John H. Reagan has accepted
position on the railroad commission Had
Governor Hogg been acquainted with every
man in the United States in our opinion he
could not have made Il better choice SEN
ator Reagan has made the railroad question
a study long before Kogg was even thought
of for encouragement Besides, he is an
honest, upright, Christian gentleman, and
will do what is best for both people and
railroad companies Nolan County Re-
cord.
In the appointment of Senator John H
Reagan to be chairman of the railway COM
mission, and the appointment of the friend
of his boyhood, Hon. Horace Chiffon of
Tyler to fill out his unexpired term in the
senate. is additional evidence of the desire
of Governor Hogg to promote the wellbeing
of Texas, and to give to her people the best
possible administration. John H. Reagan
has for years stood at the head of the Texas
delegation in congress, and has labored un-
ceasingly for the rights of his people. He
is the author of the interstate commerce
bill. and has done more to amsliorate the
condition of the taX-ridden farmers of the
South and West than any other man in con-
gress. All honor to Governor Hogg! He
is grand man. All honor to nator Rea-
gan! He is statesman and a patriot. All
honor to Texas. the brightest star in all the
galaxy of states.-I Wichita Democrat.
Senator John H. Reagan has shown his
love for his state by giving up his position
of United States senator and accepting the
office Of chairman Of the railroad commits
sion. AS his new position is not so well
paid as that he has resigned, he has proved
that he is thorough Texan and that he re-
CARDS the interests Of his state as being
greater than his own. II is an instance of
pure patriotism such as is but rarely met
with Lampasas Leader.
In the retirement of Senator Reagan from
the United States senate, that body loses
one of its ablest members, and Texas. d
representative at the national capitol whose
integrity and ability have met every emer-
gency. In offering TO Senator Reagan a
position on the railway commission, Gov
ernor Hogg has shown his appreciation of
the importance of the position. and the ne
cessity of putting at the head of the COM
mission, the man of all others most compe-
tent because most familiar with railroad
operations and legislation. For twelve
years Reagan fought persistently for the
passage of the interstate commerce act,
and to him fairly belongs the credit OF be-
ing the author Of the law Cotulla Ledger
The appointment of Hon. John H. Rea-
gan as railroad commissioner by Governor
Hogg seems to have given entire satisfac-
ton to all classes. Hon. VIM. Fl. t'.Howdy'0

it was good for the people, good for the
railroads and good for Judge Reagan

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE CALL.
a State Convention to Take Measures to
Have Texas Represented at the Column
bian Exhibition at Chicago in 1898.

The chamber of commerce has issued the
following call:
The legislature of the state of Texas has
refused to make an appropriation In
aid of the Columbian exhibition, and unless
immediate steps are taken our great state
will have no way of showing to the world
its greatness and vast undeveloped re-
sources. With a view to overcoming the
difficulty the Chamber of Commrce of Fort
Worth asks that the various cities of the
state, the Chambers OF Commerce and
Boards of Trade, commercial org anizations
progressive organizations, and county i'm
migration societies send delegates 10 d con-
vention to be held at Fort Worth on May
u at II IN. to discuss plans, and, if possible,
organize for the purpose of having the state
efficiently represented at the Columbian
exposition.
1t is, therefore, requested that each COM
mercial organization appoint one delegate
and one lady delegate for every ten mem-
bers. Each immigration and progressive
association one delegate and one lady dele
gate for every twenty members, each city
one delegate one lady delegate for every
1000 inhabitants. Kindly acknowledge the
receipt of this call, and forward to the sec
rotary of the Chamber OF Commerce the
names of the delegates appointed. Truly

Central Africa from barbarism. Eng
land bursting with envy and the de-
sire to be foremost in all philanthropic
deeds of that nature, ordered her off
the territory on pain of having her
capital shelled by British ironclads as
Alexandria was few years ago.
While these Europeans express all of
sudden such horror and detestation of
the slave trade and the rum traffic, it
should not be forgotten, that their con-
sciences were not aroused on this point
until they acquired valuable interests
in the Dark continent, interests that
need developing. Uncle Sam has no
territory. no interest there. There ap-
pears to be no good reason why he
should chip in to help lot of Euro
pean plunderers subjugate and de-
velop country which they have taken
possession OF without the slightest cere-
mony. II they have partitioned out
African territory among themselves for
the sole purpose of banishing the slave
trade and the rum traffic, let them go
ahead with their charitable work.
Uncle Sam will cheerfully concede them
all the glory earned.
