EX-GOVERNOR GIBBS
Views on State and National
Politics.
10 Trouble in the State But a Vast Amount
Of ii in National Affairs.

ExLieutenant Governor Gibbs, IN
an interview in the Wednesday
Dallas News, says:

fight is concerned. nine tenths Of
the Democrats Of Texas are already
harmonized into a state of indifer.
snce. Their votes will not be
affected very much by what either
or both committees do or say
Those who meet in primaries will
affiliate and, as usual, pledge them
selves to vote the ticket nominated,
and will proceed to select delegates
to the state convention just as if
there had never been any split. The
masses of the Democrats Of both
sides, for convenience sake, will
accept the time aud pace named by
the Baker committee, it represent
ing the most votes cast when the
test of strength was made at the
polls. The masses have no personal
pique or pride in this matter, like
leaders have, and very few of them
expect office. These are already
harmon I'D, so lar as that fight i.
concerned.
"There liz more serious question
about to confront the party all over
the country and in importance aud
results it Will cause all minor diff
ferences to pale into insigniiicance
The voters will have to be reasoned
with and convinced on the policy o
the party on leading questions. AT
present the party is not in ii 4htine
condition even in Texas because OF
the differences and discussions on
federal policies. If the Demo.
cratic party issues bonds after
thirty years protest against this
policy it will have to be mad
very plain to the people OF tht
south that something akin to Il
military necessity existed for the
issue. They will also have to be
convinced that there was no ESCAPE
from this increaae IN the public
debt, and that the Republican party

They m,y come back, but it is safr
to say that even in Texas the day
the bonds are issued one half tn

will be in humor to rebnke the

of the country. If the bonds had

Rave been less dissatisfied As it il,
such an issue will make widespread
political dlscontent, and no man
can now tell the extent of it in the
South and West. The fact that a
Democrat here and there resisted
will have no weight. The party
next summer will pe judged by its
record.

propriated on an unreeorded vote,
so that congressman and not even
party leaders shall be responsible to
the people who pay the taxes. A
congressional rnle, or better still, a
constitutional amendment of this
character would save the people In
the long run more than the Wilson
bill.

pie of Waco to show their hand"
said a prominent visitor to the city
yesterday afternoon. 81 have
been in Texas number of years
and have always heard of Waco as
very solid, substantial town.
The fact is its 'soliduy' and sub.
staniality' had become SO notorious
throughout the state that it had
almost become synonymous with
lack of enterprise. 1t meant, al
least, as applied to Waco, by people
outside, extreme conservatism.
Now conservatism, when it becom'
extreme, is as dangerous TO the
welfare of community as enter
prise that reaches the point cf reck
lessness the latter dissipates the
strength of the natural resources of
a town and ruins its credit, the
former sleeps on its rights while it's
more progressive rivals reap the
prosperity which nature has prom
ised it. l am glad to see Waco
aroused, | have been here a good
deal in the last twelve months
have remained here more than six
weeks on this visit-and l am in
terested to the point of wishing the
people here all prosperity, and to
see the city grow in size and com
mercial importance as it should. AS
| said in the beginning, the time has
come for the character of the city
to be shown. The building of the
Cotton Palace would be, in add.
ton to the direct benefits that
would accrue, notice to the world
that Waco was sin the push to let
the Palace idea drop would be to
acknowledge lack f the ecessary
enterprise to carry great projects to
a successful issue. The one would
be to invite, the other to repel men
of brains and enterprise and money,
who are seeking location and in.
vestments among live, progressive
people. lived in Sioux City for
several years, and know the i'm
mense advantage the Corn Palace
has been to that place; l now reside
in Fort Worth, and l know the
Spring Palace was the means of
bringing several millions of dollars
to that city"
The fame of the hot wells is
travelling abroad, and results are
daily coming in. A few weeks ago
two well.known citizens of neigh.
boring city came to Waco on business
which kept them here several days.
Of course they tried the baths and,
equally of course, they were de-
lighted with them. When they
returned home they told their
friends about the hot water, and, as
a direct consequence, one person
has been here several week ks already,
another arrived yesterday for an
extended visit, and still others have
signihed their intention of coming.

Every well informed reader knows or be
lieves that each twinkling star is either an
inhabited globo or a great blazing orb OF
fire, like our sun, but SO far away that
they appear TO be merely an immeasurable
distance. One Of the giants Of the lot is
Sirius, the "dog star" which IS removed
from the earth by such an immeasurable
distance that comparison Is the only
thing that will give any idea Of the inn
mensity Of the sea Of space which separates
our globe from 10.
Now to the comparison. Light travels
with n velocity Of 213, 900 miles per second
rays from the moon, 240,0 miles
away, reach us I'm about n second and a
quarter; from the sun it would take eight
minutes for light to travel the distance
which intervenes, from Jupiter 90 minutes
and from Sirius 10 years.
Let us look az this from another point
OF view. II Il were possible that Sirius
could have been blotted out on Jan. l, 1894
