Colonel w. A. Chlildress desires to ccr-
rect the idea that has In some way gotten
out that he intends leaving Houston eco
with the view of making Dallas his perma :
nent home.
His firm has simply accepted the state
agency of an insurance company, which. in
addition to bis busiress, will necesslt,t !
his doing a good deal of travelling through
the State in the future and as Dallas will
be a more accessible point for him during
his winter itinerary he has simply sent his
family there for the winter.

With this issue the ENTERPRISE
enters upon the nineteenth year OF
its existence, with a circulation
larger than at any period in its his
tory and with advertising patronage,
which will compare fayorably,we be-
lieve, with that of the best weekly
papers in the State That in all these
years it has lived and prospered, DIES
pite its shortcomings and the adverse
criticisms of it's enemies. encourages
us to believe that it has not been en-
tirely without merit and inspires us
with the hope, that while like the
brook lit may not go on forever,
that it will continue for many years
vet to be welcome visitor to hun
dreds of those who in the past have
perused its columns weekly. At least
it is our purpose to make it more de-
serving of the patronage of the public
in the future than it has been in the
past and with the improvements con-
templated by us, and which we hope
to make at an early day, we believe,
it will continue to receive that sup>
port which ensures its success in the
future.

Governor Tyler, of Virginia, may
be q senatorial candidate. IL is stated,
that he has the matter under advise
ment and that There is considerable
likelihood of his entering the lists
That he may yield to the pressure
which is being made upon him from
every section of the State, to enter
the race, ought to be hoped for ct
least by every Yirginian who believes
that the people, and not the bosses,
should rule Virginia. Whatever his
decision, it must be made in a short
time. and will be looked for with in
terest by the people Of the State. If
he should conclude to run, it goes
without saying, we believe, that Ac-
comac will be with him and there
ought not to be any doubt what
the result would be in other sections
OF the State and we do not believe
there will be. There is nothing in
the career of Mr.. Martin, so far as we
are advised, that so binds the people
to him that they must accept him as
their choice merely because he is the
favorite of few, who aim to control
the affairs of the State.

Sixty CIerkshIps for Virginia.

There is semi-offical authority for
the statement that Virginia will be
given sixty clerkships in the general
census office out of the 2,1OO from all
the states. The two Virginia senators
will name six clerks each, five OF
whome will be appointed after non
competitive examination, making
ten for the senators, and the repre-
sentative will name three clerks each
two OF whom will be appointed, max
ing twenty for the members of the
House, and thirty with the senator
ial ten, which completes the Demo-
cratic quota for Virginia.
The Republican machine Execu
tive Committee will have the naming
OF the thirty clerkships allotted to
the Republican party, with probably
the assistance of the defeated candl-
dates for Congress in such districts
as the Fifth, Ninth and Tenth. This
will make the full quota OF sixty for
the State, How soon the clerks will
be appointed is not known.

Attorney-General Montague in a
letter to the Danville Register repels
the insinuation made by that journal
that he had changed his views in res
gard to the May Conference. He
still believes, as will be noted by the
following extract from his letter, that
the people, and not the bosses, should
control their affairs:
Permit me to say that l have not
changed in any way the views ex-
pressed by me in speech before the
conference; nor have l thought, nor
do now think, the movement or the
object of it factional, or in any sense
undemocratic. On the contrary, l
think the election of United States
senators should be by the direct vote
of the people. and that. pending the
desired constitutional amendment,
we should have a Democratic pri
mary. l think these changes will
subserve both the interest of our
country and the welfare of our party.

FAMILY FINANCIERING.

They tell me you work for dollar day!
How is it you clothe your boys on such pay:
I know you will think it conceited and queer,
But do it because am good fnancier
There's Pete, John & Jim, Joe William q Ned,
half dozen boys to be clothed and fed;
I buy for them all plain victuals to eat,
But clothing buy only for our son Pete
When Petes Clothes are too small for him to go
NV wife makes them and gives them to John,
When John who ten they have grown out OF date
She lust makes them for Jim who is eight.
When for Jim they have become too ragged to fix,
She just makes them over for Bill who is SIX,
And when for young Bill they will no longer do
She Just makes them for Ned who is two
Sc you see if I get the good clothing for Pete
The family is furnished with clothing complete,
He has thrown them aside what do you do with then?
Why once more we go round the circle complete
And begin to use them for patches for Pete,
But where dear friend you buy clothes that wear
From Pete down to Ned without rip or tear:
I 90 down to -GLICK'S- his stock is the best,
He can suit the whole family, my wife and the rest.

The cost of the expansion policy OF
our Government is submitted by the
Baltimore Sun in late issue of that
paper. The extract, given below, shows
the vast sums that are being expend-
ed by us in our war OF conquest and
can leave no doubt in the minds Of
the taxpayers who will have to foot
the bills, that the Interests of human
ity," which the officials of our Gov
eminent offer as an excuse for their
reckless expenditure, will be promoted
at very dear price to them. The
burden too, of course, is largely
augmented every day the war in the
Philippines is prolonged by the addi-
tions to the pension rolls. The cost,
in fact, OF our expansion policy is so
large that it is hard for the average
mind to grasp what it means, but the
people OF Virginia will have no diff
Guilty in comprehending what it
means to them when told, that it is
tated, that the collections of the In
ternal Revenue Bureau in Richmond
for the fiscal year which ends this
week will be over S3,3OO,OOO, million
or more in excess of what it was for
last year. In other words that they
are bein g taxed and will have paid in
q yeara million for "eXpapsion pur>
poses.''
From July 1, 1895 to June 30, 1899,
the expenditures of the Government,
according to estimates prepared by
the Treasury Department at Wash
ington. will aggregate $500, 900, 900.
The receipts of the Government dur.
ing this period approximate $500,
900, leaving deficit of about $780,
600 600 But for the increased internal
revenue taxes the deficit would be
much larger. The receipts from in.
ternal revenue in the preceding fiscal
year were Sill, 100000. This year,
with the war taxes, they will amount
to nearly 500, 100000 more. The re-
ceipts from all sources for the fiscal
year 1897 amounted to S405, 000, 600,
and there was deficit eff S33S, 900, 900.
With the increased taxation and the
bond issues, We have piled up def
cit in the last two years of $13S, 000,-
600, and the end is not yet in sight.
Including $20,000,00O paid to Spain
for the Philippine Islands, our naval
and military operations since July l,
1893, have cost us about $3.50, 900, 900,
or nearly $3.50, 900 for each day in the
year, excluding Sundays.

Centenary of Camp Meeting.

A writer in the July Ladies' Home
Journal calls to mind that one hun
dred years ago-August, 1799-the
first campmeeting for religious wor-
ship was held in America. The site
of this notable gathering is short
distance from Russellville, in the
State of Kentucky. The earlier camp
meetings, it is shown by the Journals
article, were formerly conducted
irrespective of UNCONVENTIONAL lines,
but the form of worship soon became
and has since remained, a Methodist
institution.
