One of the glories of Texas is
her system of public schools that
give an opportunity to every child,
white or black, to secure good
English education free of cost.
More than 100000 annually are
spent in this way by the state and
there are thousands of poor men
in Texas who get from the state
for the education of their children
more money than their entire tax
es amount to. The wealthy men
of Texas are paying the tuition OF
many poor children, in the way OF
taxes, and there is no excuse for
any child to grow up in ignorance.

We hear SO much in this day
about practical education, but the
true practical education is that
which practically fits boys and
girls for the active duties of life,
and any education which falls
short of this is neither practical
nor complete. Fit child to earn
a living and you do better by him
than to give him wealth. Fit him
to appreciate and care for property
and he is safe to be entrusted with
a legacy.-Brownwood Bulletin.

You need not imagine that your

This way some papers. and some

The majority rule is one of the
principles of democracy, but not
in the abstract. The minority
have rights that must and should
be respected, and when denied
them the majority rulingis no lon
ger democratic, and the minority
can rightfully refuse to recognize
the majority in anything it does.
The great principle of democracy
is equal rights to all and special
privileges to none, otherw
might as well say that Nigh
right as to claim that the
the majority to rule is I'll
stone of democracy, and in
stance are the minority Dor
the acts of the majority unless
those acts are in accordance with
the great principle of exact justice
to all and special favors to none.-

This political disturbance is a
blessing in disguise for Texas.
Heretofore a democratic nomina-
ton has been equivalent to an cleo
ton. But when the different par
ties are about equally divided it
will force each party to bring out
the very best man available, and
also to be more prudent in all their
actions.
