PRACTICAL KINDNESS.
One Hundred Thousand Crate
iul Soldiers.

These war times have tried mems
souls in many unexpected ways,
but like shaft Of sunshine and
good cheer out Of the cloud OF
privation and endurance has been
the WORK that The American To-
bacco Co. has done amoung the L.
;. Sailors ever since the war be-
gun-for when they discovered
that the camps and hospitals were
not supplied with tobacco they
decided to provide them, free Of
cost, with enough for every man,
and have already given outright
to our Soldiers and Sailors over
one hundred thousand pounds of
Battle Ak Plug and Dukes
Mixture Smoking Tobacco, and
have bought and distributed fifty
thousand briar wood pipes, at a
total cost Of between fifty and six
" thousand dollars.
This work has been done quiet
ly and thoroughly, by establish
ing headquarters in each camp so
that every camp and every hos
pital Of the United States Army
has been supplied with enough
tobacco for every man and the
sailors on thirty United States
Ships in Cuban waters have shar.
ed with the soldiers this most well
come Of all "rations.'
Perhaps it will be only fair to
remember when we hear the re-
mark again that corporations
have no souls that there is one
American corporation whose SOU
has not been found wanting in

and numbers Of students are ar

announcement to save the expense
and disappointment Of the large
number whom | know contemplate

President. "
The College Is doing a grand,
substantial work, appreciated by
| the peoble Of Texas. a. is evidenc.
ed by the necessity Of these no.
tees, and which plainly indicates
popularity, and the many good re-
suits here obtained. The gradu-
ates of this institution, both in
war and in peace, are performing
their duties with credit TO them.
selves, their country and their
Alma Mater, thus furnishing a
living, effective advertisement for
the College.
Then, with the assistance Of
Governor Sayers, whom we know
to be a great friend 10 education,
the influence OF the industrial
classes Of the state, including the
Texas Railway Club, and the grad
yates Of this institution, the con-
tinued and much appreciated aid
on the part of the press Of the
state, together with the business of
our demands, we have every rea.
son TO believe that the Legislature
will no longer turn a deaf ear to|
our appeals for help.
The great state of Texas, with
her natural agricultural and many
other industrial advantages, and
her wealth should unhesitatingly
provide all necessary room to edu-
cate every young man VINO desires
~ attend this college. A commu-
nity, state or nation is judged by
its people. Then let Us SO educate
aud elevate our sons and daughters
that we may be justly classed
among the most refund and pro.
gressive people OF this or any other
nation. 1t is due them. Then let
Us hesitate no longer, but see 10 it
that ample accommodates are
provided for the education Of our
own children within the borders
of our own state; that our college
doors are no longer closed in the
face Of those clamoring for an edu-
cation at our hands. We trust that
every member Of the next legisla-
ture will give this matter most
serious consideration, the result Of
which will be that our appeal will
not be in vain, and the sons Of
Texas 40 longer compelled to 60
TO other states to obtain an indus
trial education. And in this re-
spect we are also sadly neglecting
the daughters Of Texas. Other
states, both north and south, have
provided industrial schools for
them-while We have no provisions
whatever ofthis kind, and yet we
bnastfully proclaim 10 the world
that we have the greatest state ia
size and fertility in this or any
other country. Then let us go
build up our educational institu.
tions that we may faithfully pro-
claim to the world that we stand
first also in this respect. The
legislator who will introduce and
have passeda measure 10 establish
end conduc; a irst.class industrial
college for the young ladies Of Tex
AS, will obtain for himself the
good will of every citizen Of the
state, and in this one act alone
establish for himself reputation
for good deeds that will Doe as en-
during as the crock Of ages

People in this island who are easily excited,
and some others who are not, have had Il
sensational time in the past two or thlee
days. On Saturday came a teleg' aplic an
nouncement that the Foreign Committee Of
the Senate bad approved Senator Lodges
proposal to purchase the Danish West Indian
Islands for five millions of dollars, and that
the Senator was going to bring in a bill to
that effect Immediately. This looked serious,
and in the present excited state of public
opinion about C1ba, il seemed TO be not i'm
possible that the party for extension might
be too powerful for the con servativo aIty, and
that the bill might be carried. Hence local
hopes and fears were aroused, and brought
to a pretty high tension. Mondays news
brought the raging sea to an immediate calm
again; the Congress had heard Senator
Lodges proposal and Won OF entertain it,
and he, seeing hat his position was hopeless,
withdrew it. That probably means that
we shall hear nothing of ii for Il long time to
come. In the meanwhile the ~"slle' scare
, 1898-04-06

has done some good, for if has made many of
tile inhabitants Of these islands reflect on the
advantages they enjoy under the present
rule; and we ale rot surprised to learn from
a correspondent whose letter we insert to-day,
that the last news has been very welcome.
We ought to mention hat it is not 10 our
editor, but to a correspondent. that the
public is indebted for lie translation of DR..
Kalmer's interesting article, which has so
opportunelv been proved to be correct in the
stand which it takes.
