Ignite coal, which is being mined near Al
bia, station on the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas running from here to Greenville.
This coal has been used with good results
in several Texas towns and cities. the Fort
Worth packing company having consumed
several carloads of it.
\ fine selection of iron ores were brought
in from the country a few miles northeast
of Alineola, where it is found in great guam
titles.
A goodly number of fine stock came in

The early trains brought in a large num-
Der of visitors, among them being some of
Texas most prominent citizens.
As announced, Col T. j. Hurley of Fort
Worth addressed the people on Worlds fair
interests. The colonel held his audience
spell-bound for an hour discussing the great
Importance of a Texas exhibit at the
Worlds fair. Several enthusiastic cheers

talk. All present were willing to acknowl
edge that they had learned something of
Texas and the richness thereof from Col.

Houston and Galveston to address the peo-
pie of those cities on Worlds fair interests.

THE Jefferson Jimplecute calls upon
THE GAZETTE with query: Col. H.
Mckay asks us the following question:
If the alien land law ruins Texas by
driving out English capital, how is it
that after having the English cheap
money for twelve years the people have
derived no benefit from it, and the
farmers are in a worse condition than
before English capital was introduced?'
We respectfully call on The GAZETTE
TO answer
We do not know that the people have
derived no benefit from English cheap
money. Does Mr.. Mckay know that?
Neither do we know that her farmers
are in worse condition than before En-
glish capital was introduced. If they
are, it is more likely owing to the high
prices they have had to pay for tariff
taxed goods than for the low prices
they have had to pay for money.

generally, as Offering the best hopes of
advance in value. On these lots small
purchase payments were made, the rest
to be paid in year or two These
We're safe risks to take, because q year
ago it was not difficult to borrow 40
per cent of the value of good real estate
from the foreign loan companies, and
it was easy for careful and industri-
Gus man TO pay off these loans in from
three to five years-the usual life OF
loan. But in the midst of this expec-
tation law is enacted that stands
against the loaning of money by for
eigners, and cuts off this source of help
to the debtor. His purchase notes fall
ing due, he is unable to meet them,
and he sees his property taken back by
the holder of the notes, and the savings
of his hard labor and self-denial swept
away.
Nor is this the end of it. Under the
stress of the hard times it is often the
case that, with nobody able to pur-
chase, these lots are sold at less than
the amount of the unpaid notes on
them. In addition, therefore, to the
loss Of the real estate. the debtor finds
the notes still standing against him.
Suit is begun and judgment obtained,
and the young man who looked for
ward to something moro than depend
ence now finds himself pinned down by
burden that only years OF labor and
of saving will extricate him from. The
judgment is lien on all his future Ell
forts. With such prospect in store it
is not surprising that many give up in
despair. and instead of aspiring to be-
come men OF substance, 'lie down" and
think of nothing better than drudg-
ing life that will give them a bare liv-
ing, or take to dissipation, thinking
that it is of little good to save up for
their judgment creditors TO seize that
which they might as well enjoy as fast
as they make it. Their ambition is
gone. Inspiration has ceased. FOR
them the future holds out only the hope
of existence.
There can be nothing so disastrous to
people as when hope is dropped and
ambition stifed Progress is checked,
for the man without ambition stands
still. He is slave-a slave to whom
life means only an interval between
now and death-a period to be accom-
plished as hireling his time. With
such a citizenship the state decays.
The decay of Texas will take its begin
ming from the passage of the alien land
law, if that vicious act of legislation is
not speedily repealed.

AN EXTRA session is the demand Of
the western half OF the state, whose
people are being taxed without repre-
sentation.
An extra session is the demand OF the
recently adopted constitutional amend
ments.
An extra session is the demand OF
people who are suffering from the ex-
pulsion of money from Texas by the
Gossett alien land law.
No man or newspaper has yet adj
vanced a single reason why special
session should not be called to give the
state its just representation in the leg
islature, to give force and effect to the
amendments, and to give relief to the
thousands who are suffering from that
unnecessary and cruel provision of the
Gossett law which deprives Texas OF
cheap money.

STIELING AMBITION.

Perhaps the most hurtful of all the
cruel effects OF the alien land law, is
that which falls upon class OF ambi-
tious and struggling young men in the
outset of a career. There are many
such in this city, and many more in
other parts OF Texas They are hard
working, frugal, ambitious men, who
began the struggle of life at the foot of
the ladder, which they Aad hoped to
climb by the strength OF their own will.
They saved and got together a small
sum of money. Looking for safe and
profitable investments, the savings
were put in real estate--in town lots,

THE DANGER LINE.

The Abilene national banks are fight
ing the constitution of the state of
Texas, and refuse to acknowledge any
power in that instrument or the laws
made under it to regulate the rate of
interest that they may charge. The
lately adopted constitutional amend
ment fixes 10 per cent as the maximum
rate Of interest to be charged. The
Abilene national banks resist the cut
ting down of their rate of interest,
holding that they are not under state
control, and neither the constitution
nor the laws of the state can reach
them. They will continue, therefore,
to lend money AT usury, and snap their
fingers at state legislation.
If the test case that has been brought
shall be decided in favor OF the banks,
it will be a victory like that won by
Hannibal at Guinea victory that led
to the destruction of the victcrs. a
judicial decision that a national bank
may violate the laws Of the state in
which it does business will sound the
death knell OF the national banks. The
feeling toward them is even now one of
bare sufferance. The Democra tic
party. with large majority of the
country behind it, is opposed to the ma
tional bank system. The Farmers AL
lance, representing no inconsiderable
strenth. tiercely demands their abolish
ment. To fly in the face of this hos
tile feeling and to aggravate it by the
contention that the national banks are
greater than the states and cannot be
held in line by state laws or constitu-
tions, is to invite swift and sure destruc-
ton. The states will appeal to con-
gress. and congress will heed the ap-
peal, and go further, perhaps, than
they might have been inclined to go
but for this greedy attempt OF some Of
the banks to exact higher rate of in
terest than the citizens of the state can
lawfully charge. The only region OF
the country that is at all friendly tona-
tional banks is the East. There money
is readily loaned at or 6 per cent.
The congressman from the Eastern
states who might stand up for the ma
tional banks when they have justice on
their side will have very little to say in
their behalf when it comes to defying
the state laws in an effort TO exact Il
per cent interest. Such rate of inter-
est will be looked upon in the East as
being robbery. and the Eastern con-
gressmen will not oppose q law that
looks to the bringing of national banks
under state control in charging inter-
est, even if they could resist the de-
mand OF the rest OF the country for the
total wiping out of the system.
The Texas national banks had better
go slow in this matter. They may win
their case in the courts, but the courts
are not the last resort in this country.

FARMERS "MAKE" NO PRICES.
Some Facts by Livingston of Georgia..
Which Every Farmer Ought to Know

| Some Facts by Livingston of Georgia,
| Which Every Farmer Ought to Know.
In recent speech Hon. L. Z. Livingston,
| president of the Georgia state Alliance, gave
| the following facts and figures. They
| speak more eloquently and earnestly and
| effectively than all the sophistry ever in
vented by the old party press:
The farmer makes no prices There ism t
a farmer in this house that in fifteen wears
has ever brought butter. eggs or cotton TO
I.awrenCeville and got the price he asked.
He must say to the merchant, How much
will YOU give ne for my butter." and then,
How much will you take for Your calico ,"
The merchant buys and sell at his own
price.
No merchant and no lawyer would carry
on business as you farmers have been
obliged to carry it on. The traders have
allowed US to keep body and soul together,
and that's all, but we should be thankful
that they have not treated US worse, as
they had the power to do.
What has caused this poverty?
The financial policy of the government.
the system established by our national leg
islation.
In 1866 the farmers owned 20 per cent o.
the property in Georgia. and the farmers of
the United States owned Is per cent OF the
entire property OF the country.
To-day only IS per cent of the people own
homes, and in Georgia only "a per cent of
the property is held by farmers. .
In 1872 Charles Dickens said Il tramp in
this country would be as strange a sight as
u flaming sword at midday in the heavens.
In 1876 there were 100000 tramps in the
United States.
The towns and cities of Georgia have
grown at the expense of the country. In
ten years the property in towns and cities
has increased $50, 900, 0O0 while in The rural
districts it has decreased So. 100000.
In 1866 the congress passed the famous
contraction act. 1t was not rigidly en-
forced, however, until 1865. In 1865 the
total circulation was 1888. 3i9, 513 amount
ing to So per capita. In ten years the cir
culation fell TO S466, j49. 097. and the money
in circulation was reduced 20 :Ji5 per-
capita.
In eleven years there was lost by con
traction of the currency total of $40, 49,
6S7, 49, shared by the people as follows:
Lost by business men, 1901 I5l.lI1.
Lost by farmers, s., Oh, 93G 29i.
Lost BY laboring classes, 81, SOO.O 900, 900.

WEST TEXAS needs wheat elevators.
West Texas is the wheat granary of
the South, but until enough elevator
capacity is obtained to handle the
wheat to advantage it can never get the
largest benefits out OF favorable condi-
tons that God has bestowed upon us.
To build elevators and handle wheat
needs an abundance of money. Here
again the alien land law steps in and
clashes against Texas progress and
prosperity. If there is any evil that
it failed to get out of Pandora's box.
