Supt. Carslile in his address
spoke of the ACCESSIBILITY of each
county electing a county Superin-
tendent. He gave as his reasons
that county judges who are e1-
oficio Superintendent, are elected
on their merits and qualifications
az :.5ges and not as school mana
gers, and many judges perform
their school duties very negligent
ly, and without making any efforts
towards lettering the county school
affairs. And urged that in order
to make the school affairs what
they should be, competent man
whose only duty is to look after
the schools of his county, should
be elected to superintend the coun-
ty educational affairs.

Our esteemed cotemporary, the
Burnet Bulletin, thus jumps on us.
'Some newspaper men are lee
tie too free with their private opin-
ions. The editor of the San Saba
News is kind of rural philoso-
pher, and favors his readers with
sundry chunks of wisdom similar
to this one" A piece is quoted
here, which appeared in the News
merely as a bait, but since we
caught only a minnow we will not
repeat the act. And since the
editor of the Bulletin seems to
have the right to express his pri-
yate opinion, and we have not, we
ask his pardon for trespassing his
domain, we acknowledge the corn,
and will set up to cigars the first
time we meet. Put'er there ia

1t has been said "If you want to
know what is going on at home,
just go away from home and you
will hear" And if you want to
know your own faults, your own
business, your own private affairs,
your private plans, your religious
motives, ETC., just go among some
of your neighbors, the extra smart
ones will know more about you
than yourself, as it sometimes hap
pens that you need only think of a
thing once or twice and they will
have the whole thing done and
thoroughly circulated before you
can half do it. This is a sad state
of affairs but true nevertheless.
If the human race could be SO
schooled that each and every indi-
the world over, would do
his honest, Conscientious, christian
duty to himself, his fellowman
and his God, in what respect
would this world be different from
the Paradise that it was intended
to be? But I suppose from the ex-
ample given in the beginning ofour
race, that there was implanted in
the human breast seed of dissat-
and from this seed the
plant grew and man became worse;
and we are told that the wicked
ness of the world caused God to
repent that he made man, and the
plant has grown and spread and
developed and increased and en-
Iarged until Philanthropy is found
only in the dictionary, true, genu-
inc, christian charity is but q

letters: May God grant that some one may

correspondent and others with the same
benehcent inclinations into communication
with Santa Claus, that they NAV assist in bring
ing Christmas joy to the needy. 1t will per-
haps be better in order to prevent Implications
and omissions if the benevolent forward their
substantial suggestions on this point to Santa
Claus through The STAR that the work may
be done by him systematically. The STAR has
already sent to Santa Claus on its own ac-
count a note (neatly engraved, pictured
and colored), giving him broad hint that in
certain cases his letter might well be backed
with something more substantial, and il will
take pleasure in forwarding similar notes for
Others, that breathe the spirit of the Christmas
season. Christmas is close at hand, and it is
obvious that the readers of The STAR who wish
to respond effectively to this suggestion must
act at once

The democratic party in the House of Repre-
sentatives is apparently no more united than it
was during the heat of the speakership contest.
The friends of the Speaker and the followers of
his principal rival are seemingly arrayed against
each other in bitter anlmosity, and the Speaker
has not, to all appearances, lessened the breach
by his action in rendering assignments to Mr..
Mills. Whether the feeling will continue or
the Inflammation become assuaged will depend
on ''the subsequent proceedings" The an
nOGncement Of the committees on Wednesday
may or may not throw oil on tic troubled
waters From present indications it is not
likely that the friends of Mr.. Mills will be alto
geths- pleased with the result, although their
dissatisfaction may not extend so far as some
persons appear to think probable. Faction Is
almost as much part of political human ma
ture as partisanism. The factions of party
are indeed little parties working or trying to
work their will within the party. In the pres
ent instance the germs of future policy may be
found in the aftermath Of the organization of
the Ffty-second Congress.
