Fort Worth Gazette: "GOVernor
Barnett Gibbs, of the coast COun-
try, is busy just now looking after
his cows and calves, but it is a safe
guess that there is reserved cor
ner in his mind for the general
situation"
Globe-Democrat: "Dare the Ohio
Democrats accept the challenge
Issued by the RCpubl ems to make
the canvass on the thrift? Unless
they do this the campaign in that
state will have but little interest
Tor the country at large"
Wills Point Chronicle: "a Ty-
Ter gentleman had thirty chickens
~'lifted" from his coop on emanci-
patton day. And yet some say tie
emancipation celebration is a
mockery and that the negro does
not properly appreciate his free
DOM"
Calves ON Tribune: "Unless
m zone confesses, the mystery of
THE Borden murder may never be
cleared up. The New Bedford po-
lice can not be expected to do any
more. They exhausted all their
energies trying to convict Lizzie
Borden, who happened to be inno-
cent"
Memphis Public Ledger: "The
banks of this city will, each and
:all, as we happen to know, be de-
snlaring healthful dividends at an
early day. TIE gay old stockhold-
ers have been so advised contiden-
TALLY, and no little money will get
adrift by the reassuring event"
Huntsville Item: editor John
Hoeny has retired from the man
agement of the Abilene Re
porter moved to Fort Worth
to take charge of litho-
graphing business. Many will re-
gret he has abandoned the news
paper fold and hope he may evan
der back again"
Blanco News: "Beats the chi
nese exclusion act. The municipal
government of Galveston has pro-
hibited the employment on the
public works of that city, of any
man who has not been a resident
of the city for one year. The work
men will no doubt take advantage
OF the situation and demand an
advance in wages"
Houston Herald: "The Austin
people are still tearing their neither
garments in the endeaVOr to get
the railroads to carry the state
troops to and from the ehcamp-
ment free. The road that tlunks
now and permits itself bull-dOzed
anG begged into doing something
it cannot afford to do, has just
enough backbone to make itself
the laughing stock of the state"
Greenville Herald: "DOn't let us
10 Sc sight of the fact that every
dollar expended at home helps to
build up home business, helps to
give employment to labor, helps
to Olel new avenues of trade and
Industry, pays taxes and other
necessary expenses, and that some
per cent of all the money eXpend-
ed II home is quite sure to come
back to the pockets of those eX-
pending"
Pearsall News: "FriO county,
financially, has been steadily get
ting behind from the date of its
birth; but county commissioners
are now resolved to make a deter
mined fight against the evil and
are studying economy at every
corner. Besides, for the last two
weeks they have labOred hard as
equaliZerS to fix the values in such
a way as will deal full justice to all
concerned, and also increase the
the cOunty'ss income; and by
these measures they hope, before
many years, to cancel all of her
obligations"
Beeville Bee: "The entente cor
dale between the respective edi-
tors of the Victoria Times and the
Corpus Christi Sun is somewhat
strained. Beeville is halfway
ground; we have a nice grassy
back yard; an admission fee
could be charged, and after it is
over, the young men could divide
the proceeds, and find it more
profitable than firing paper bullets
at long range"
Fort Worth Gazette: "The
things that come to the waiting
ones are often in the nature of sur
prises. For example, while the
