Miles Crowley is a stencil in the
nOstrils of the business men of
Galveston. They will unite for
his defeat upon any able, high
toned and representative Republic
can who may take the field against
him. Hawley, of that city, is a
man who would be every way ac-
ceptable to the business, brains and
responsibility Of that city. He can
be elected if he will only make the
race. He will be aided by the money
and men of his city and the first is
needed to secure the vote of the
"black belt" which voted almost
solidly for Gresham and Hogg two
years ago. Crowley cannot put up
the money to purchase that vote
and it will 60 where the money is.
This is not a nice confession to
make, but it is useless to mince
matters or disguise the bald truth.
Better meet it in the face and act
in the light of the wisdom that it
teaches. Galveston Knows just
how it is and can act accordingly.

There is every reason to conclude
that there will be better business
in Texas this fall and winter than
since the opening ofthe present de-
cade. The people have concluded
that the present congress is unable
to stay the protective tide that is
setting in so strongly at home and
abroad, and that it is only ques-
tion of time when the freetrade
fallacy will be dead beyond resur-
rection. AS a result ali productive
enterprises will feel a new impetus
and develop as never before, while
the raising of the drouth blockade
will open all avenues of agricul-
ture at present closed.

The fraud that is perpetrated in
the name Of piety, when a fee is
charged for hearing gospel
sharp" call sinners to repentance,
is too pitiable for excuse. Preach
ing the inevitable damnation Of
souls to all eternity unless they re-
pent and then charging an admis-
sion fee to the door of the tent
where the awful warning is given,
is one of the most diabolical frauds
of this age. If eternal punishment
is fact, and God has called men
to proclaim it to the world, what
excuse can they present for shut
ting out from their warnings all
those who will not pay a quarter
Cor hearing it.
