Two RepnblicS:

Among other resolutions passed
by the agricultural congress during
its recent session was one favoring
a system of schools on haciendas.
day schools for children and noe
turnal school for adults. Schools
are good and too many properly
conducted schools cannot be estab-
lished. Adult laborers, however,
are not likely to attend nocturnal
schools after a hard days work.
Hence this feature of the resolution
may be regarded as more spnti-
mental than practical. Generally
speaking the laws of the states pro-
vide for day schools on haciendas
and the agricultural congress could
have done some good by arranging
for committees in each state to see
that the educational laws are COM
piled with.

Texas Farmer:

leNdS armer:
Texas needs more farmers who
raise fat hogs, cattle and poultry :;
more tirSt-claSS commercial men
who will organize factories and,
perhaps, insurance companies. SO
far as lawyers and office seekers
are concerned, she has an abund-
ance and to spare. She has Judges
of high and low degree, several of
whom only average one decision a
week. She won't need any more
taXeaterS for a half century to
come. Texas Farm and Ranch.
The proposition of Senator I'M
bOden to make hog stealing a
felony is absurd. The hogs in the
Senator's district, according to
statistics adduced in the debate,
only average in value $I.04. The
fact is, that some of them are so
low value that the more man
owns the poorer he is. If hog steal
ing is as common in East Texas as
Senator ImbOden says it is, this
would result in so encumbering
the dOcketS of the criminal courts
as to call for more courts, more
penitentiarieS and more expense.

persuaded to try DR.. Kings New Dis

walk across the street without resting.

! Amos Lincoln, of No. 139 West
Nineteenth street, New York city, is
in distress and out of work, chiefly
because of physical weakness, caused
by the loss of 80 ounces of blood, which
he gave TO save the life of a young
woman in the New York hospital Jan.
9, 1890. The attending physicians and
the house surgeon all testify to the fact
Miss Lizzie Cunningham, a dress
maker, then living on eight avenue,
was nearly killed by inhaling illumi-
mating gas. She was taken to New
York hospital and treated by skillful
physicians, but the poison was in her
system, and her low vitality and lack
of physical strength needed to be rein
forced. To save her life, the doctors
resolved to try the TRANSMISSION of blood
remedy-that is, inject fresh human
blood into the woman's veins, and thus
expel the gas poison. Among the
patients in the hospital that had plen-
ty of blood was Amos Lincoln,
troubled with a nervous affection, the
result of electrical shocks while he
was lineman. He was on the road
to recovery when the physicians
wanted fresh blood. He volunteered
to give his own life fluid, and 80
ounces were taken from his left arm.
This warm blood was whipped or
beaten into froth and otherwise pre-
pared for the operation, and was then
injected into the poisoned girl. She
soon recovered and became a strong
woman.
Lincoln has lost 30 much vitality
that he grew weaker and became SUBJ
ject to nervous attacks tending toward
paralysis. To-day he is pale and very
much shattered, and at first glance
one fancies ne has been drinking
But his record contradicts that idea.
He can do light work and he needs a
home and steady employment. He
was born at Fort Brownsville, Texas,
in 1851. For years he was employed
by telegraph companies in New Or
leans, and later was a linemrn for
eclectric lighting companies. He was
shocked twice, but recovered, and
would have been all right but for the
loss of the 80 ounces of bIood.-World

State as the foe of sectionalism. TIL,
mistakes of the Republican policy o
reconstruction and the outrageous
tyranny of the dominant Congress
sional party toward State which had
never seeded, and which at the close
of the war stood for the instant re.
Mobilization of the South in all Its
rights, solidified the sentiment of the
State in favor of the Democratic party.
Thousands of Kentuckians who had
fought to prevent disunion by force OF
arms took their foes of war by the
hand and joined in contest to pre-
vent disunion by force of unjust laws
The initial advantage given the De-
mocracy in the affections and conf
dence of the people of Kentucky in the
reconstruction days has never been
lost.
The failure of Kentucky to progress
as rapidly as it should have done is
due less to politics within than to poll
tics without. There has been per-
sistent and often malevolent misrep-
resentation of the gState-such mis-
representation, for instance, as this
assertion by the Cincinnati paper that
Republicans are socially ostracized.
Such falehoods have deferred immi.
grants from coming here. More than
this, the barrier of the Alleghenies
has turned most of the great railway
lines from the East to the north or the
south of us, carrying new population
in other directions. Only at the
northeastern and, more recently, at
the southeastern.extremity has this
barrier been penetrated, and, though
much has been done, the great tides
of travel still sweep Iaround the rich
est parts of the State.
Kentucky stands with the rest of
the South in the matter of develop
ment, From the natural cause re-
ferred to, it has even Jared worse
than some portions of the South, but
like that entire section, it has made
successful struggle against the pow
erty bequeathed it by war. Its peo-
pie are perhaps.prone to be too easily |
content with what they are doing,
but its doors stand invitingly open to
all corners, and no man finds a bar
put upon him for his politics. We
eave those things to newspapers like
that Of Cincinnati. which, on the safe
side of the Ohio, failed to learn from
he disasters of war the generous les
son of tolerance.-Courier-Journal.
