Another bad result Of the long cold
snap was the bursting Of two iireplugs.
the water from which has formed minia-
ture lakes in the streets along which the
surface drains run. The first plug to
blow up was the one at Harmony and
Union streets. This was soon followed
by the fireplug on Union street opposite
the Red Mems Hall. Plumbers and dig
gers worked all night in the cold by Ian
tern and torchlight, but it is doubtful
whether the leaks can be permanently

Say, young man, there is one
thing you cannot do. You can't
make success in life unless YOU
work. Better men than you have
tried and failed. You ean2 loaf
around street corners and saloons,
smoke cigars, tell foul stories,
drink whiskey and sponge on some
else without making a failure in
life. You must learn trade or
get into some honest business. II
you don't you will be chronic
loafer, despised by all, producing
nothing simply making yourself
a burden on your parents and the
state. There Is no place in the
world for Ioafers. The ripe fruit
is all at the top Of the tree You
must climb to get it. Smarter
men Will Jump up and set it.
Move. Do something, no matter
how small. 1t viii be a starter.
Help yonrselfand others viii help
you. There Is no royal road to
success. Toll, grit endurance
these are the requisites. Wake
up and see what you dan do z-
change.

VOLUME MY.

| The South complains of legisla-
ton favoring the North. lis true
there are some Just grounds fer
these complaints. This peculiar
legislation,these just grounds and
these complaints viii exist SO long
as the South continues to produce
raw material and ship it to north
ern factories, and then buy the
same back again as manufactured
goods, and by this operation the
south paying freights both ways,
sufficient profits to cover the OK
penses ofmanufacturing and in adj
diton giving the manufacturers a
handsome profit besides. Texas
does this with her cotton and wool.
Texas buys bacon and lard from
the north yet there is room enough
in Texas to supply the United
States with these articles. Texas
buys corn from the north, yet she
can raise as much corn to the acre
as any state in the Union. Texas
buys flour from the north yet her
wheat laAds equal the finest.
When a child is born it is wrap
ped in fanel made in the north,
from wool shipped from the south,
it is placed in a cradle the cotton
clothing OF which was made in the
north from cotton shipped from
the south. The child eats meat
brought from the north from hogs
raised in the south, that meat is
fried in northern lard taken from
southern hogs. That meat Is cook
ed on & stove made in the north,
when there is enough iron in the
south to make stoves for the world.
All the tools and implements the
child works with were made in the
north. All the toys, articles of
amusement, buggies, musical in
struments were made in the north.
When that child has lived to old
age he sees that the food he has
eaten, the clothes he has worn, the
tools, implements and machinery
he has used through life have all
been the products Of northern fac
tories the ra# material being pro
duced in the south, he feels some
what ashamed perhaps and gives
up the ghost" then he is carried to
the grave in a carriage made in the
north, his grave is dug with tools
made in the north, and his tomb
stone came from the north. Any
and all of these things exist album
dainty in the south. So long as
the south leaves her industries IN
developed and in their primitive
state, so long as the south remains
upon the north for man
ufactured articles she viii have
grounds to complain. The south
should develop her resources, es-
tablish her factories. Manufacture
her raw materials produce the nee
Of life and thus be indie
pendent Of the north. By doing
this the north would not get so
much raw material. The pride Of
the south should prompt her ac-
tons in these matters.
