The prospective retirement of
Hogg from the field of state poll
tics does not soothe the disturbed
feelings OF the Galveston News,
which continues to pour its grape
and schrapnel into his excellency
on every possible occasion. The
News has no use for Hogg and
deems him an enemy to the state.
The News is a bitter hater, and
when it goes for scalpis not salts
fed until it bangles at its belt.
There are good qualities even in
James Stephen, but the News sees
them not.

Arkansas Pass is again agonizing
for deep water, and Corpus Christi
is awaking out of her sleep to cry
for that Brownsville extension. In
asmuch as this city is pointing for
deep water at the mouth of the
BraZos she is not so anxious for the
outcome at Arkansas as she was,
but all the same she is so far an
interested party that she will throw
up her hat whenever the deep sea
rolls in over that Arkansas bar to
the depth of 20 feet or more. AS to
the Brownsville road, Corpus is
welcome to push it for all that is
out. II she gets there before we do,
we will "holler" glory, too. 1t is of
little Importance to San Antonio
who builds up to the Mex.-Tex.
line; when the road comes that far
north this city will build down
and tap it and lead it into its ma
tive home out of the wet.

tempt to aid Corea in throwing off
the Chinese yoke. Those reports
emanate from Chinese sources, or
are doctored in the telegraph
offices, which are controlled by
Chinese influences. Japan has not
taken the. initiative in this war
without counting the cost, and
with her superior knowledge of the
art of war and the superior quality
of her forces it is not likely that she
is going to be caught in China like
a rat in trap. The prospect of a
prolonged struggle grows less every

The one fact over all others that
the late Grand Army gathering
emphasized, was the rapidity with
which the ranks Of that gallant
host are being deeimated. Death
made rapid inroads in the ranks
last year, and this is but the be-
ginning of the more rapid disinteg-
ration of the army that is destined
to occur from year to year as time
passes. These veterans have passed
their meridian and are in the de-
cline of life. The life of full gen.
Grafton has passed since they were
mustered into the service and in
the nature of events it cannot be
that they will preserve intact their
ranks for many more moons. Each
year with growing fatality the
shafts Of the sure archer will reach
one and another until in a few
short years only remnant will be
left. 1t may then be that more
tender memory will linger around
them and their deeds of patriotic
sacrifice, and those who have made
it a merit to cut off the support
that government has voted them
in their declining days may repent
of their hard heartedness, and lei
the tear Of pity flow for that suffer.

No harder battle for decency was
ever waged than that which has
just closed in Kentucky. The issue
was sharply drawn and the fight
was not over until the last ballot
was cast. The Owens people de-
serve all the credit of their victory,
for it was won in the face of all the
traditions of the Blue Grass region,
against the machine that had long
held possession Of the gates, and
with a formidable diversion in the
enemy's favor led by Settle. Such
a victory deserves recognition.
