THE ALIEN LAND LAW.
Editor Gazette
ZEPHYR, TEX, July 8.

Editor Gazette.
There has been considerable discussion in
our town in regard to the alien land law.
Some are enthusiastic in its praise, while
while others denounce it as being very
unjust law However, there IS 4 difference
of opinion as to its scope. Some OF our
people contend that it cOmpelS every one
not naturalized citizen of the United
States who owns land to give up his land
to sell it-or it will be alienated TO the state
within FIVE years after this bill goes into
effect. Others claim that it affects only
persons living in foreign countries who own
land in Texas. Still others claim that the
bill does not affect any land now owned or
owned before the bill went into effect, but
is designed to prevent any further foreign
ownership of Texas lands. 1t is desired
that TIE GAZETTE enlighten us on these
points. ToI !. EVANS.
The first view is the one which the
lawyers take of the effect of the law.
Article 1Od reads: eff any alien shall
attempt 10 hold lands for a longer
time" than six years. ''or in any way
contrary to to the provisions of this
chapter, such lands shall escheat to and
vest in the state OF Texas" This does
not appear TO exclude from the opera
ton Of the law aliens who had title TO
lands before the law went into effect.
IT, after the 18th day of July, 1897, any
alien shall still be in possession OF lands
in this state, though those lands may
have been purchased in good faith be-
fore the enactment Of the alien land
law, they shall escheat to the state.
That was the avowed intention OF the
trainers of the bill. They were after
the Matador cattle company, the Duke
Of Sutherland, and other large English
land owners, who are already in possess
sion of vast estates in Texas. If the
law could not reach these men, and
break up their estates, it would fail of
the purpose for which it was intended.
The contention that the law affects
only persons living in foreign countries
is Opposed Of by reading OF the act.
Its language Is. mo person who is not
citizen of the United States of Ameri-
ca" \ person may live in this state,
be a cultivator Of the soil, and still not
be citizen of the United States. Why.
under this law it is doubtful if Jefferson
Davis could hold land in Texas, if he
were living, as his citizenship had

THE COPYRIGHT BILL.

Suppose that was compiling a medical
work, would it be violation of the copy

scribed for the case under consideration.
giving due credit to the author? Or could
l prescribe the same prescription without
mentioning the fact that some previous
author had done the same thing? Please
answer In THE DAILY GAZETTE.
Doctor.
The copyright law is pretty com
plicated one, and The GAZETTE is not
prepared TO give an answer to this
question. If the quotation were made
from a copyrighted publication, with
out the consent OF the author, and he
could prove that he was injured there
by in his property right, he might re-
cover damages. Generally, however,
if a request is made OF the author, he
will allow short quotations from his
work by the giving OF due credit. But
in using prescription thata physician
had made use Of and published, it is not
likely that Doctor would lay himself
open to an action, for the author OF the
work from which it is taken would have
to prove that it was taken from his
book, which is not an easy thing to do.

EXTRA COUPON PAPERS.

Severa. inquiries have been made Of The
GAZETTE concerning the priceoat which ex-
ira coupon papers may be purchased.

each. Regular dealers will be given the
usual rates. and all orders for coupon papers
must be accompanied by the cash. The
GAZETTE will take ballot orders and cast
them as instructed, when received in lots
of not less than 100 and when accompanied

The GAZETTE unless written or tele-
graphic order for such vote accompanies
the cash and is for 100 votes or any multi
pie OF 100, ard all such orders must be
signed with the full name of the sender,
for submission to the committee of award.
ESPECIAL NoTICE-The contest closes

The Chautauqua park folks are arrang-
ing TO put down deep well at the park.
1t is believed that the aow struck at the

the park at less than seven hundred feet,
and it is conceded by DISTINGUISHED parties
that such flow of water as has been
struck by the two places named will keep
all the lakes at the PARK full of pure, clear
water, and that this point attained Fort

vate park in the state.

THE REASON WHY.

Parties are writing THE GAZETTE
asking for special rates on coupon
papers in large quantities. The Ga.
zETTE must adhere to the rate an
nounced, viz:
In lots OF 100 three cents per copy
In quantities less than 100 FIVE cents
per copy.
Should The GAZETTE make less
rate to one buyer for specified guam
THY, justice would demand asower rate
for double such quantity and so on,
and thus great advantage would be
given. The GAZETTE desires specially
that the methods Of this contest may

Mr.. Silliman represents foreign
money-lenders. The Texas mortgage
and loan company is domestic corpo-
ration. The alien land law drives out
the foreign capital because it is drain
ing" the money out of the state. The
domestic company is not affected by the
law. The domestic company, however,
whose stockholders live in New Eng
land. were sent their dividends, which
is the interest earned on the capital in
vested. The English company has
turned the interest on its loans back
into the hands of our people.
So far as it affects the people of Tex
as, they might as well pay interest to
the capitalists of England as of New
England. In any case the money goes
out OF the state, and it is just as likely
to come back from England as from

HARDIN COLLEGE.
Work-A Great Opportunity for the
Lucky Young Lady.

The interest in the contest is in
creasing.
THE GAZETTE scholarship in Hardin
Ladies' college and Mozart conserva-
tory means $500 TO some Texas girl, and
the number of those whose friends ap-
preciate splendid opportunity is daily
growing.
Candidates have been entered from
Dallas, Gainesville, Grapevine, Gle
burne and Fort Worth, and letters
from other towns show that they will
be in it.
Hardin Ladies' college ranks first
class, and Mozart conservatory is one
OF the very best in the whole country.
The scholarship is worth striving for
