THE MEDICAL AND LAW DEPART
MENTS.

| The growth Of the medical and law de-
partments Of the university has been al
most Phenomenal | know nothing at all
! comparable to Il in the history of American
universities. This is a most hopeful sign
for the future Of Texas. II means that
higher standards OF professional learning,
professional skill and professional eharac-
ter are being demanded by our people OF
the two professions that concern most
closely their lives and property.
The complaint is frequently heard that
We have already too many lawyers and
doctors Yes, TOO many sorry ones; but We
shall never be rid OF the sorry ones until
We drive them out by supplying better The
demand for better trained physicians is so
great that the medical department at Gal
weston has added another year TO It's currl =
euium, making total requirement OF four
years. and placing IL abreast OF the chief
medical colleges In America. The number
OF students is SO large in the me,ncal de-
parineni that they can not be accommo-
dated with the present equipment. There
is urgent and pressing need OF an enlarged
ampitheater in the John sealy hospital and
an additional building for laboratory and
disEectinE work
The law department here Ia content with
its humble and cramped quarters In tho
basement o, this building. although its
course uf instruction is more complete and
It's enrolment OF students /. larger than
IN law schools with thrice or four times
the material equipment
There were lawyers and doctors in the
days OF Abraham. and doubtless there will
~ lawyers and doctors to write the will
and close the eyes OF the last mortal that
shuitles OF this earthly coil. There has
never been struggle for human liberty In
which lawyers have not taken the foremost
part. there has never been surrender OF
human rights unTcsisted by lawyers
The preiu6ce against doctors surpasses
my comprehension They bring us into the
world, helpless and wailing they watch us
through life. more patient with our foliics
and tenderer with our bodies than we our
selves they close our eyes In the final

The Foundation Of Prosperity.

"A revenue tariff will do nothing
but raise revenue" said President Nc
Kinley in 1891. Since that time we
have made acquaintance with "rev-
enre tariff which will not raise even
revenue, which has not raised anything
but the amount Of the national debt.
The large importations from which rev.
enue was TO come, according to tue
promises Of the free traders, have not
been possible when the people have been
in idieness and therefore without money
to buy them. We have learned from the
Wilson German bill what the Mckinley
bill should have taught us, that even
our imports will be greater in amount
under protective tariff, because the
people will be at work and 90 will have
money with which to buy imported as

FASTEST TORPEDO BOAT.
Some Wonderful Performances on thu
P0rter's Practice Trips.

Some Wonderful Performances on tho
Porter's Practice Trips.
The torpedo boat Porter, which has
been in commission about year, has
been astonishing naval experts aud 9th
ers by series Of performances which
have proved her to be the fastest boat
in the United States navy and possibly
the speediest craft af1oat.
Not long ago the Porter was out for
practice spin in New York harbor, when
the Sandy Hook, the fastest steamer
running out Of that port was sighted.
The Sandy Hook is scheduled to run at
a speed of 20 knots an hour; but, al.
though her captain made desperate
effort to sustain the reputation Of his
boat, the Porter not only overhauled her
in short order, but described complete
circle about the crack steamer.
~ A still more recent performance has
added to her laurels. With the members
of the naval inspection board as passen-
gers the Porter started out on triol
run, not to test her speed, but to prove
that she was seaworthy. She made q
complete circle around Long Island, q
distance of nearly 800 miles, in 10 hours
IS minutes, including two stops.
At no time during the, trip was the
boat given her head. The steam pressure

ARRANGEMENT OF TRACK AND CARRIER

Prairie Farmer, also authority for the
following:
The weather conditions should be
studied carefully at haying time. The
mowers should be in tiptop condition,
and then the supply Of implements and
tools should be gagged by the amount
Of work to be done. az
If the stack is to be done in the field,
two sweep rakes and q good stacker
should be employed. If the hay is to- be
hauled in, a good loader will do the
work Of loading easier and quicker than
three or four 1aeu. The arrangements
for unloading and stacking and moving
away should be simple, yet complete
enough to keep the field force working.
In shcrt do q little planning. and it will
he surprising how easily the work may
be done and how cheerfully all hands
will join in pushing it along
Hay cock covers are especially valua-
BILE in case of sudden storms coming up
while the hay is in the shock. No good
farmer can afford to be without sup
ply of these covers.
The use Of the tedder affords q great
advantage in curing heavy clover or al
falfa hay. Without it the hay cannot be
made to cure evenly, but by stirring
