EVERYTHING seems to come San
AntOniO's way except the cussed-
ness that distinguishes the cities
of Houston and Dallas. Time was
when Fort Worth led Dallas in
devilment, but since the Fort
Worth Gazette took to illustration,
the toughs could not stand it and
skipped. A people that can stand
the pictures in the Gazette have
lost the power of locomOtiOn.

ONE reason why there is such a
disregard of law is that so many
laws are more honOred in the breach
than in the observance. Respect
for the law must precede obedience
to the law.

THE McGAUGHEY CASE.

ported by special telegram in yes
terday's LIGHT, was a surprise t,
Texas, particularly as the presen
state administration has cOnSpic
uOusly paraded its care for tn,
state lands, making their cOnser
walton for the use of actual settler,
one of the articles of their pOlitica
| creed. 1t does seem strange that g
transaction of such a nature should
pass unchallenged by his eXcellen.
cy, the governor. The report of the
committee is unequivOcal, showing
that the commissioner did not ig-
nOrantly err, but that he
kept inviolate the law for the
preservation of these lands to
actual settlers until he was moved
by considerations presented by land
spectators to violate the law and
place 10000 acres of land upon the
market and dispose of the same at
private sale before the residents of
the counties in which the lands
were situated had any knowledge
of their contemplated sale. One of
the suggestive incidents this of land
sale is the fact that JoeMcGaughey,
head of the school land depart
ment, and son of the Land Com
missioner, received in December
gift of 800 shares of mining stock
from David BOaZ and that in the
following month this same David
BOaZ purchased a section of these
lands put upon the market con-
trary to law. 1t is also plain from
the report that these lands were
not sold in open market, but that
Austin land agents and spectators
were let in on the ground floor,
purchases being made by them
more than week before the cOun-
ty clerks of the counties in which
the lands lie were notified that the
lands were put upon the market.
These lands are represented as be-
ing valuable, on account Of the
settlements and Improvements
made on the farms in their Vicini-
ty, and are actually wanted by ac-
tual settlers. The report bears
heavily upon the integrity Of the
land commissioner, and no less so
upon his nepOtism in appointing
his son, an inexperienced boy,
to the head of the department of
school lands. The people of Texas
in no incOnSiderable numbers have
long thought that there was I'M
equal fight waged against foreign
land ownership, but they have
never desired the relaxation of a
single regulation that would with
hold the lands Of the state from
the grasp of spectators and re-
| serve them for actual settlement.
There can be no question that
| these COnVeyanCeS made by the
land commissioner in violation of
| law are invalid, and the recOmmen-
datiOn that the state institute suit
for their recovery is timely. The
closing paragraph of the report
inhibiting heads of state depart
ments from employing their rela,
tives in their departments, is one
that strikes at the root of much in.
efficiency. 1t would be wei
if such regulation was establish,
ed in every branch of the public
service, state and national. The
resignation of the Land Commits
siOner is now in order, in case i'm
parchment proceedings are moi
instituted. The proper course un
dOubtedly would be to impeach fOl
malfeasance in office and violation
of his oath as a public officer. The
committee is to be commended TO
it's fearless and thorough work, anC
for the unequiVOcal nature of tn,
report.
