WHILE the food of water is re-
ceding some, the situation is still
critical one. The rise has broken
the food record in Texas, being
several feet above the memorable
overflow of 1885. The work of
rescue being nearly over, the great
question now confronting the peo-
pie is, what are they going to do
with the thousands of homeless and
penniless negroes now on their
hands? 1t will be too late for re-
planting by the time the ground
gets dry enough, and the only
hope of keeping these people from
starvation or the commission of
wholesale pillage lies in the will
ingness of the railroads and others
needing help to employ them.
Contributions a,e pouring in from
every direction and the suffering
is being alleviated with all prompt
ness and despatch.

THE attorney general of Vir-

for hls services, has recently been
called upon to decide the case of
Mayor Bibb of Louisa, who is dis
qualified on account of his failure

have seen many such contracts, the
sum is only $96 ayear, and out of
that SIS year is deducted for re.

wages is only S162 a year The poor
devils of serfs and poems have to
pay out of this meagre sum some
S75 year for rice only, and then
there is the expense for their clothes
and other food to be provided. The

The Bulletin says:

"Should anything happen to Mr..
Dole" is now the text for an evening
contemporary in dealing with the
future Minister Of Foreign Affairs.
We trust nothing will happen to
him, but if there should Minister
King is next in line of ascension to
executive power. During all the
period of Mr.. Cooper's term as Min
ister of Foreign Affairs the situa-
ton was the same. Mr.. Cooper has
never been eligible to the Office Of
President should anything have
happened 20 Mr.. Dole. The Gov
ernment having existed for over two
years with Minister King first in
line in case of the death or resigna-
tion of Mr.. Dole, there is every rea-
son to believe that the territory will
survive for another twelve months
under similar conditions,
The esteemed representative OF
Mr.. Sewall's ambitions should study
more carefully that half baked docu-
ment, made by minority repre-
sentation for minority OF the Ha-
waian people known as the Con
stitution of the Republic OF Ha-
wall" Article 36 of that marvellous
document says:
"Section l. In case of the tenn
p3rary disability or abseuce from
the country, of the President, the
Minister of Foreign Affairs, while
such disability or absence continues,
shall act as President.
"Section 2. In case of the death,
resignation, removal or permanent
disability of the President, the Min
lister of Foreign Affairs shall there
upon act as President until sue
cessor to the President is elected"

Furthermore reference to its
own files will show that Mr. Cooper
has acted as Acting President. He
may be ineligible for election" as
President for few years to come.
