order by your votes. How does he OF
any one else know whether law thai
has scarcely gone into effect, and that
only in part, needs amending? But il
1t had been sufficiently tested, and
was found imperfect, would you give
the mending of it to a man who

who would soon make short work of
it. Sending lambs to den of wolves
for lessons in good behavior would be
wisdom compared to that. In his
Denton speech some weeks ago Judge
Clark denounced the commission as
"undemocratic." After n conference
with some friends held subsequently,
at Dallas, he changed his tune and
said that he was a commission man, q
believer in it, but wanted it changed
to suit his corporation tastes. DO you
believe that his conversion is genuine.
Oh that you ought to accept his views
about the commission law? One of
the most singular and striking results
OF his avowed candidacy on a COM
mission platform is the sudden con-
version of the entire band of anti-com-
mission calamity howlers. They are
now all good friends of commission
not the present one, of course, but
some other and new tangled folly that
the railroads will approve of. They
are all, these violent enemies of rail
way regulation, earnest believers in
1.-THE right sort of a commission
1t is positively charming to hear
them boast of their fidelity to the
commission idea, although their con-
version, like that of their leader
few days ago, was quite as sudden as
the conversion of Saul of Tarsus. By
their own account, they are really
better friends of a commission than
Governor Hogg or the Legislature that
enacted the present law. Otherwise,
Why should they seek to have him
deposed, and their leader chosen in
place of him? The hills have hardly
ceased to echo their fierce denuncia-
ton of the commission as not only
"undemocratic," but badge of "pa-
ternalism,n Capitalization and
"tyranny.n And now upon a sudden
we are amazed to find that almost
without exception, they have all in
of their "principles," Of which
they were wont to boast so pa
thetically, and are out-Heroding
Herod in their advocacy of an
Conference.-The" "paternalistic,n
"centralizedn and "communisticu in
stitution called railway commission.
Was ever batch of raw converts so
full of pretension and zeal in their new
belief? Are they not trifle too pre-
tentious and Jealous? Would it not
be the part of prudence to keep them
in probationary state-say four or
five years-in order to tese their sim
certify, and those faculties of obedience
to established rules and laws, so need
full in those that aspire to rule?

Special to The Statesman.
SAN ANTONIO, March 12.-The
financial condition of the city of San
Antonio is exceedingly critical for the
first time in her history. She today
was unable to pay a single one of her
employees their salary for the past
month. The San Antonio National
bank has refused to honor any more
city acquisitions, claiming that as the
city was already owing the bank
100000; that amount is as much as
can be safely loaned any one customer.
Mayor Callaghan and the city coun-
cil's finnace committee state thatthey
do not know when they will be able
to negotiate further loans.

Once upon time there was woman
struggling to accomplish something
in literary way; an earnest worker,
with ambitions for herself, and per-
haps little natural desire to make a
name that people would like to recall.
But while she worked, doing faith
fully what lay at hand to do, people
bega to come to her and say: "You
don't know how you have helped
meW They came, one after another,
young and old, and the words were
like a trumpet blast, TO urge her on to
better work. Smaller ambitions be.
gan to fade, and to have helped some
body seemed nobler and truer than to
have made a name the world would
echo. And so, she came to consider
thatno better use could be made of
the drop of ink that had been given
into her keeping than to send a little
CLEAN of sunshine into weary lives
to make some home corner O real
home corner in very truth to make
the young little more considerate.

alas! Who is equal to all these tasks
Such things as these make the simple
words, "You have helped me-" better
