"The smiles. tic tears OF chi,dhondS years,

DR.. Darby had been Il faithful friend
to Sidney, us was also bis wife, to
whom Sidney was as devoted as a
knight of od.-hc sill called her Sweet
Gladys" as in the days Of her girlho"d,

Gladys taught him music which
was an easy ta>k-ti.c boy being
unusually gifted in that direction:
She sent him papers ahd books. ahd
took an abiding inturc-L in everything
that concerned his welfare. SO Sidney
worked and studied and WAS content ;
but in the nature Of things The current
of his life could not so on 50 unevenl-

In the afternoon of that April day
in which our story opens the mclan-

Of Mrs. Ferris.
The two men left the piazza and
went into the pretty little dining-room.
TO their mutual surprise and relief,
Mrs. Marksdale proposed 10 adopt the
orphan pn., , , -, , ..;, ~ rr,u, !,
Darby, "you already have two orphans

"YeS, Frank" she replied, "but love
this child, aud it will be IL sorrow to
give him up. You see, I was here
when his father died. Albert was un-
conscious, but just before he died. he
said my boy, my SON. I picked w
the child, held him to my heart and
kissed him. Then Albert smiled and
seemed content. held the little one
toward him to kiss, but he was going
fast, his beautiful eyes were shining
with rapture, he reached out his hands
and said, Lois, and then passed gently
away.
Mrs. Ferris was weeping softly.

Mr.. Ferris said. feelingly. "My dear

"In His name, | ask God to bless you

and DR.. Darby said. Amen.
Then it was settled, the property
should be sold-only his mothers pi-
ano and his fathers watch and cavalry
sword and such like personal belong
;ngs should be reserved for the boy.
Mrs. Marksdale made the request that
all books should be retained for the
future education of the boy. After cv.
erything was settled, funeral expenses
and all, it was found that there would
he two hundred dollars left. DR.. Dar-
by had himself and Mrs. Marksdafe

A TRANSACTION PAPER.

History is precept teaching by ex-
ample" That is a concise and cpl
grammatic way Of putting fact that
nobody can deny, the knowledge OF
which. nevertheless does Us very little
good Too many Of Us want to apply
the example to our own affairs.
Like causes produce like effects. Dis
aster following upon certain policy in
one instance should warn those who
come after TO avoid such disaster by
steering clear Of the ways that led to
it. A plain recital Of undeniable facts
in recent and contenporaneous history
is herein set forth.
Ten or fifteen years ago there was
very little money in the Argentine re-
public, and loans were not easily made.
The people sought relief, and the easy
expedient Of issuing debt certificates
with the prestige Of a state guarantee
was re5orted TO. Two banks were au-
thorizcd to make these issues. An
owner Of farm could go to one of the
banks, and in return for mortgage on
his property to the amount OF one-half
OF its appraised valuation, he could OBJ
tain from the bank an equal amount In
certificates. These he sold TO whom
ever he could and at whatever price ha
could get. He could pay off the mort-'
gaze, too, in like certificates, purchas-
able anywhere.
There was little or no limitation OF
the amount issued. The people wanted
lots Of money, and they kept on mort
gazing their property and piling up
the certificates. In 1888 the two banks
had expanded the currency" by an
issue of $5l4, 900, 900. and the volume OF
nationa. paper currency was inflated
from S60, 100000 10 51G0. 900, 900. This
paper currency was irredeemable, and
was u legal tender for debts and
customs duties. Gold was driven out
of the country. In July OF that year ii
was at premium of $50. A collapse
followed, Everybody was in debt, D
cause it was 50 easy to mortgage a
farm for the government certificates
that everybody took all they could get
while the GOOD time lasted. Now the
country Is bankrupt, ana nearly all of
the citizens are in the same fix. Times
are harder than ever.
This is 4 brief history of an expert
ment to run a government so as to give
Everybody all the money he wanted by
keeping the printing presses at work
printing debt and mortgage certiti-
cas-, based on bonded security. Men
who are in doubt concerning the pro-
priety Of the sub-treasury plan may read
and profit by the reading.

MAKE TIRE STATE INTERNATIONALLY.

An Alabama public Official OF thrifty
habits is in disgrace for having charged
the state with the amount of his rail-
road fare. while travelling on 4 free
pass that was given to him on account
OF his official connection with the gov
eminent. 1t was pretty profit he
made while in public employment. For
every thousand miles travelled. the
state paid him $50. which he would
have had TO pay if he had not had the
benefit OF dead-head pass. As the
passage cost him nothing, and the state
recompensed him for what it was sup
posed he had paid, he was ahead by $50
for every thousand miles traversed.
1t is nothing uncommon for public
officials to do what Mr.. Kolb of Ala
bama has been doing, though they are
not usually caught up with. To guard
against such abuse Of official privileges.
state officials should be barred from ac-
cepting passes on transportation lines,
or transportation lines should be re-
quired to carry them free. The latter
is the better plan. Railroads are the
creatures OF the state, enjoying special
privileges from the state. 1t is not.
therefore, asking too much OF them to
require them to carry state officials
without charge when passing TO and
fro on public business. Nearly ALWAYS
the courtesy OF free passes is extended
by railroads to members OF the state
administration. and it is too often the
case that scandals arise on account OF
the acceptance Of these tavors by off,
cials, who look on them as personal
gratiuties, to be used for their own

SETTING ASIDE JURY yERDycrs.

The prevailing belief is that in this
state juries are judges Of the facts in
certain cases tried before them, the
judges being eypounders Of the law.
That notion must be abandoned. or at
least modified, is the action of the
judges in Two cases recently tried goes
to establish a precedent for allowing
the Judge to put his opinion above that
of the jury.
AT Waco boy was injured by a
horse belonging to the Wells-Fargo
express company, and in suit for dam
ages the jury awarded $1,000. The
judge granted new trial on the ground
that the penalty was excessive. In the
same place a man who had been cow
hided by another sued for $4,000 dam
ages and was given 1925. The judge
granted new trial in this case because
the penalty was too light.
So far as the justice and propriety Of
the matter goes we believe the judge
was right The boys leg was paved
by horse, making probably painful
wound, but to make the owners Of the
horse pay $1,000 for it is an extreme
charge, which probably would have
been much lighter had not the defend
ant been corporation. And sl2G does
look like u cut rate on cowhiding, even
in these dull times. The judges esti-
mate OF the measure of damage due in
each OF these cases was more in keep
ing with our sense OF justice than the
iury's: but, if the Judge may put his
opinion of the facts above the jury's,
what is the use of having jury trial
in the first place?

profit and not for the benefit OF the
state. During the last political cam
paign in this state, as readers Of THE
GAZETTE remembers. enemies of Mr..
HOgg, then a candidate for governor,
used as weapon OF attack the asser-
ton that he travelled over the state in
his official capacity as Encouragement
on free passes; but this argument came
back against them as 2 boomerang
when it was shown that the attorney
general charged nothing for his trans
portation when travelling on free
passes, and that the state was the bene-
fciarv for if he had not used the passes
the state would have had to pay his
fare.
As long as the practice is so general
OF giving such courtesies to public Off
cials, and as scandals arise when these
official courtesies are used for persona
gain, the law should attach to every
member Of the state administration the
right to travel on railroads in that
state free OF charge, and this saving OF
expenses should go to the public credit,
and not to the credit or benefit OF the
official.

BECAUSE steering committees exist
i no argument against the just de-

because the sub-treasury scheme is

cause the national administration will

The GAZETTE takes the figures published

that the business and bank clearances of

THE strength or weakness Of the Al
lance has nothing 10 do with justice to
the agricultural Glasses. The steering
committee cannot disrupt the Demo
cratic party Of Texas, but the De
mocracy Of the nation as well as OF
Texas should heed the needs of the
farmer, upon whose labor and products
all else depends. This republic cannot
endure a degraded agricultural class.
