A paper read before the Terrell teach
ers' association by Principal w. H. Kim
brough of Dallas, on the text book question,
contained some very sound arguments
against the adoption of state uniformity of
text books The professor says that Texa
should profit by the experience of the older
states. In all only thirteen have uniformity,
in six of these the superintendent are
favorable to it. and in five they are out
spoken against it. Massachusetts, that fur
nishes text books free and furnishes con-
veyances to and from school, leaves the
right to select text books to the local dis
trict or town authorities. Mr.. Kimbrough
quotes as in accord with his views the
words CT Superintendent Marble, Worces-
ter, Mass, who says:
These attempts at state interference
with that which does not belong to the
state have not been successful. Naturally
they create greater evils than those which
they are intended to cure. They are con-
trary to the genius of our institutions, for
these institutions recognize the people as
the source of power, and not some central
authority as in Russia.
State decree is usurpation; it abridges
unnecessarily the natural right of comnu-
nifty to secure in its own way the results
which the state may properly demand; it
almost inevitably breeds corruption"

for governor. Col Wynne would make

HUTCHINs,, DALLAS COUNTY, Tx, March
20.-Last night about 10 O'Clock little Rozie
Ledbetter, aged fourteen, living with her
sister, Mrs. H. W. Ham, was awakened By
some one tip-toeing across her bedroom,
and the next instant felt hand upon her
forehead. She discerned the form Of a
white man standing by the side Of her
couch, and threw out her hand and struck
him full in the face. which staggered him
backward and gave her a chance to scream
for help. Her sister, sleeping in an adjoin-
ing room, heard her and bounded out Of
bed, which frightened of the intruder, who
fed through the door he had left open.
The family dog heard the noise, and from
the noise outside it seemed that the villain
had met with cold reception from the
faithful bulldog. 1t must have been some
one knowing the proprietor Of the house
was absent (Which is rarely the case). In
the absence of male members OF the fam
lily the intruder was not pursued except by
the dog. 1t Is not known what his inten-
tons were

The Southern Cultivator and Dixie
Farmer, March: Atlanta, Ga. i; subscription
price, 81 per year.
It is difficult to estimate the advantage in
telhgent farming would be TO the South, a
section that has always been pre-eminenSly
an agricultural country. The worth Of pc
riodicals such as the Southern Cultivator
depends in large measure on the adaptation
OF the printed matter to the region for
which it is intended. This seems to be
kept in mind by the publishers of this
monthly. The work of the editors and con-
tributors all bear upon Southern lands and
Southern products. The topics selected are
live topics; for instance, in an article on
the oTerproduction of cotton the writer
DIES not believe that reduced acreage will
meet the case, but that the reduction ought
to be in the COST of production, that the
planters ought to use such means as will
make one acre produce the amount which
now requires the cultivation of three acres.
No part of farm life IS overlooked,
neither are any of the members OF a farm
er's family. AS has been said, the articles
are strictly practical and for the Southerns
farmer, fruit or poultry raiser. and for the
stock breeder and the housekeeper.
