ANOTHER OBJECT LESSON.

A short time ago The STATEsMAf
called attention to the fact that Mr.
Henry Sanborn had invested S27o'oo'
in Kansas City properly LII
STATESMAN also asserted that Mr
Sanborn. being a business man, IN
vested his money where he could ge'
the best returns 1or ~
and that he could gel
better returns in Kansas City than In
Texas merely on account of the lnnu'
ence the present administration has
had on Texas enterprise. And then'
with one accord, various state papers
arose in their wrath and called THE
STATESMAN calamity howler
and other disrespectful names.
THE STATESMAN now mas
another calamity howl to raise, ana
1t would again remark that the Hogg
administration is manufacturing the
calamity to which The STATESMAN
is calling attention. Mr.. Mclihehny,
of Houston, has just invested several
hundred thousand dollars in Kansas
City. The Hogg papers, when can
not be scornful enough about calamity
howlers, will please notice that while
all this money has gone out OF the
state for investment, Texas enter
prises are languishing, many that
had been already projected appear TO
have fallen through, many that had
good prospects before them have gone
to the wall, and there is everywhere
q sense of distrust in financial circles.
And in these two deals alone, at least
100000 have gone out of the state
that should have remained to build
up home enterprises. So much for
the facts in the case. And this, by
way of prophecy; give the country
two years more of this administra-
ton, and we will see a good deal of
such work as this before they are
over.

A REPORT is floating around in
northern Republican papers to the eff
feet that Senator Hill will resign his
place in the senate and go back into
the practice of politics and law. Doubt
less the said Republican papers would
be only too glad to see an open rupture
between Hill and his party but they
are not likely to see it. Senator David
Bennett Hill is far too shrewd man
to let his present pique stand in the
way of his future promotion.

Mines Running With Full Forces.

WARDNER, Idaho, July 26.-Gov-
ernor Wiley has directed the with
drawal of the National Guards from
Cour D'Aline. They will leave here
today. There are now more men here
than can find employment, and at
least 800 men are looking for work.
Mine owners are still apprehensive of
attempts to destroy their property by
the use of dynamite and strict watch
is kept on the mines day and night.

THE anarchist who attempted to
murder Frick was searched shortly
atterward, and In his mouth was dis
covered dynamite cap. 1t was his
intention, of course, to explode the cap
and muss up the room with his dis
jecta membra, and incidentally to kill
such other persons as might happen
to be standing around. Your anar-
chist is an unselfish mortal, and dis
tributes his dynamite impartially.

A TERRIBLE RESPONSIBILITY.

One of the most deplorable TRACE
dies that has ever taken place in
Texas was the murder of a young girl
at Sherman by her aged grandfather.
The el ienee shows that the girls
stepmo, er and other relatives had
poisoned the old mans mind against
her, and had made him believe that
she had disgraced herself and her
family. He was q proud old French
man, whose boast it had been that he
could look back over twenty genera.
tions of honorable people, and his
only thought was that he must kill
her to keep her from further disgrace.
The deed was done, and the old man
was held over to court without bail.
Subsequent developments show that
stories told the unhappy grandfather
were false; and it appears to THE
STATESMAN that the people who told
them were the real criminals, and
should be held for the murder,

Wadding Bells.

Cards are out for the wedding Of
Mr.. Henry H. Harrington and Miss
Florine Ross at Bryan, Texas, on the
evening of August 10th at $50 at Col
lege Station. THE STATESMAN joins
the many friends of these two con.
tracing parties in wishing them the
happiest of futures and choicest OF
Fate,s blessings. They are we'll and
popularity known all over the state
and their nuptials will elicit congratu.

ONIT TALKING. AND ACT.

The Fort Worth Mail again rises to
remark that the Half Acre ought to
go. 1t tells how Jim Toots, the negro
who waylaid and murdered police
officer, staggered into the court room
putting cigarette and with look of
braggadocio on his face, and there,
all around him, were men whose
fingers trembled to get clutch upon
his neck, and who were only re-
strained by their hope that the law
would for once prove itself equal to
the occasion. The trouble with the
Texas cities is that they sit still and
keep repeating, "The Half Acre must
CO." If they will arise sometime and
hold their officers responsible for al
lowing it to stay there, then it would
ego" Not only the keeper, but also
the owner of every disreputable house
in the Acre is liable before the law.
Why shouldn't the law be enforced I?

THE San Jacinto tin plate mines in
California have ceased working, MAIN
ly because there wasn't any more tin
there to work. They served their
purpose, however, which was to give
the Republicans a chance to blow
about American tin.

Col. HOUSTON has given the Dallas
News an elaborate explanation of the
difficulty between himself and Lieu
tenant Van Zandt. The trouble was
to be regretted, but as The STATES
MAN remarked before, the lieutenant's
joke was an exceedingly poor one, and
one that any high minded man would
resent.

THE literary clubs of Montreal tried
to show Mr.. Rudyard Kipling some
pleasant attentions on his recent visit
to that city, and were most COM
pletely snubbed and ignored by that
young gentleman. Good enough for
them! Perhaps they will learn, after
awhile, to treat this underbred young
prig with the contempt he deserves.

The plans of the new association
were ascertained by reporter from
Mr.. Carl Drake who, with DIR. Morse,
has been the main standby of the
ladies, always ready to assist them by
word of advice or counsel. He was
seen by the reporter last evening and
made certain statements which sur
prised the reporter greatly, as
they will, no doubt, do those

In the government building at the
Worlds fair will be exhibited the origi-
nal standard surveyors chain, autho-
rized by act of congress, May 1S, 1907,
for executing surveys Of government
lands. The chain was made by Ben
jamin Rittenhouse, of Philadelphia, in
1907, and is still in the same hard wood
box in which it was sent out by the
manufacturer.
The objects Of historical value and in
terest which will be shown at the
Worlds fair will be legion. It is safe
to say that the collection will be ten
times as numerous as has ever been wit
lessed in one place before. The Column
bus relics alone will Dc very great in
number. aud will include the majority
of the important portable reminders of
the famous explorer. They will be
brought from Spain, Italy, Rome, the
West Indies and other widely separated
parts of the earth.
Provision has been made for the hold
ing in Chicago at the time of the
Worlds fair of congress composed OF
youths of all nations of the world.
Delegates will be sent, it is expected,
from England, Japan, France, Ger
many, Norway, Sweden, Spain, Austria,
Italy, Russia and conhtries of the orient.
These young men are to be selected from
the high schools and the grammar school
grades. Their ages are to range between
Is and 20 years. The idea is TO get from
each conptry not more than from fifteen
to forty or fifty students.

BY A SUDDEN FLOOD
Pour Houses Washed Away and
Five Others Wrecked.
THREE PEOPLE LOSE THEIR LIVES.

Eight Others Receive Injuries That
May Result Fataiiy-A Lake Made
by Recent Rains Breaks Its Com
fines-Its, Deadly Work Accom-
piishcd In Ten Minutes.
ST. PAUL, Aug. ga torrent OF water
poured over the brow Of the lower bluff
on the west side, carrying away four
houses and wrecking FIVE others. Three
persons are killed and seven perhaps
fatally injured. The killed are Mrs.
August Adams, Mrs. j. Horn and Will
lam Kricger. The fatally wounded are
Philip Stoehr and his 5-year-old son,
August Adams, Frederick Kriegef,
Paul Keuk, Henry Ludwig and John
Wilrich.
The accident was the result Of re.
cent cloudburst. Upon the hillside
above Prague street was a deep gully,
the natural outlet of the water from the
country above. A. year ago Prague
street had been filed mp across the gully |,
leaving small culvert to carry of the
ordinary water. On Monday there ap-
peared crack on the lower side of the
filling, but there was no thought Of inn
mediate danger. Wednesday night the
filling gave way, and with q mighty
rush the great body of water behind
swept down upon the lowland below.
In ten minutes all was over and the
work of rescue began. Men. woman
and children were taken out of the de-
bris, which extends for nearly half a
mile. 1t is possible that the extent OF
the loss of life may be increased as the
work of recovery proceeds.
The body of water liberated covered
four acres and averaged twenty-five
feet in depth. When the bank gave
way some Of the houses were carried
two blocks away. A three story brick
building was torn all to pieces.

body. shrieling and waving their hats
and cheering, and they were Joined in
these demonstrations by the Liberals.
The ovation to the Liberal leader lasted
several minutes.
When Mr.. Gladstone had taken his
seat he was surrounded by crowd Of
members of the house, irrespective Of

indisposition.

tion the house was disposed to take be-

ooRRraAN AND THE Pope.
The Archbishop Makes Public a Letter
to His Holiness.

New YoRK, Aug. 5.-Archbishop Cor
rigan was interviewed in reference to
the dispatch from Rome which gave the
view of a person high in authority at
the Vatican upon the correspondence
which passed between the archbishop
and the pope in relation to the Faribault
school matter and its recent treatment
by the Vatican.
The archbishop said that the state
ments In the despatch were misleading
made public the letter which is referred
TO as having been sent to Roge i'm
mediately after the conservation OF
Bishop Mcdonnell, and signed by him
self and others. The Letter addressed
by Archbishop Corrigan to the pope was
dated June a6sana was as follows:
Mosr Hobs FATHER The apostolic letter
which your holiness deigned to write to us,
the pastor OF the ecclesiastical province OF
New York, has been joyfully received and
most willingly accepted. For it and for the
rescript, published In the controversy pro-
posed by the most reverend archbishop Of 81.
Paul, we return your holiness our best thanks.
With all our strength we will always en-
deavor 10 remove disssensions among pastors
and to keep invlolate the bonds of charity
amongst them, for the promotion of the spirit
ual welfare OF the faithful, and to foster and
increase union with the apostolic see. Nor do
we deem that we have failed In this, tho great
est of pastoral duties, by opening our mind to
your holiness as we were induced to, not In a
spirit OF strife, but through deep sense of our
pastoral office.
. Nor did we suppose in like manner that our
letter would suggest even the slightest doubt
of our obedience to the Sec Of Peter, both be-
cause we acted simply In the discharge of
duty, as also because IL Is we'll known that we
have always fully and cheerfully obeyed the
orders and advice of your holiness,
Carrying out the wish of your holiness with
united counsels wo will employ every means
TO provide for the proper instruction of Cath
Ollie youth attending public schools; but lest
there be any suspicion that thus far our
Episcopal solioitude has not exerted itself in
that direction, we beg TO inform your holiness
that in the entire province Of New York Sun
day schools have been established In which,
after complying with the precept OF hearing
mass, the boys and girls attending public
schools arc taught their catechism.
Meanwhile prostrate at the feet Of your holi-
ness we again profess obedience to your beat
itude, and beg tho apostolic benediction.
In reply to further questions the arch
culturkampf would break out in this
country il the arrangements for the
schools In Faribault and saltwater were
condemned by the holy father was all
nonsense. He also recalled to the at
tention Of the reporter the fact that
such a system had substantially been in
operations in this archdiocese, at Pough-
keepsie, for very many years, and was
also in existence at the present time in
ten other dioceses, so that it was by no
means new thing.
