So long az Northern statesman
continue to antsgonize the South
by attempting to dictate the suf-
frage laws of Southern states, just
50 long will there continue to be
more or less sectional animosity.
Mason and Dixon's line was long
ago obIiterated, and the South stand
as true and loyal to the Union to-
day as its earlier self which helped
to build the Union. 1t loves the
flag as deeply rs any ever nurtur-
ed beneath It's folds, and the best
blood of the South would mingle
freely with that of the North if
necessary tomorrow to save the flag
Yet, the Southern stats still
claim their constitutional right to
prescribe the qualifications of those
who may vote within taeir limits.
The right to vote comes distinctly
from the state, and is a gift of the
state. Therefore every state is
clearly within its own province in
debating the qualifications gifts
voters, and congress cannot inter
ferc, 50 long as the Constitution is
not violated. The partisan pre-
iudice of those Northern congress
men who seek to unseat members
elected from Southern states that
have adopted the educational
qualification for voters is plainly
evident, from the fact that, whereas
various Northern states have the
same law in operation, no objection
has ever been made to their exer-
else of the privilege of excluding
illitcrate persons from voting 1t
would be well, however, if a test
case were tried, and the question
settled, once for all, as to whether
the states have a right to prescribe
the qualification of voters or not,
and thus end at once what may
yet become the cause of a bitter
controversy

TEXAS NOTES.

The noted case of Virgil Gik
laher, charged with the murder Q
his mother five years ago in Gal
weston, was begun Monday in San
Antonio, where it was taken or
change of venue. A special venirt
of 175 jurors was necessary tc
secure a jury, and seventy-6vt
witnesses we're summoned in the
case.
The Standard Oil tompany may
operate openly in Texas, it having
been decided by eminent legal
talent that proceedings against it
would not succeed.

shipped from Galveston on the
Elder Dempster ship, Mount Tenn

LET Us HAVE PURE FOOD.

st is most probable that, if The
city chemist of San Antonio-or Of
zLny other American town, for that
anatter-would 90 nosing around
the grocery stores, he would find
considerably more embalming fluids
used in the various prepared foods
sold in these stores, than the milk
men and oystermen of the Alamo
City combined have ever used. Tie
grocery dealers, however, are in
accent of any hand in the intro
eduction of these preservatives into
ezne articles they sell. 1t is the trick
fsf the manufacturer that palms off
,@0n the consumer articles that are
aRixed with boracic acid or other
representatives. which are more or
less deleterious in their effect upon
the human system. A valuable
pointer on this subject was recently
8ublished in the Galveston News.
Ehich enlightened its readers in the
following paragraph:
Here are a few of the things found
IN our tables and sideboards every
day that cities that support
chemist have condemned upon an
=alysis as especially harmful: Butter
sweetened or kept sweetened by
2loracic acid and chemically color
sd; jam, jelly and preserves not
asven Instantly acquainted with
fruit, made up wholly of gelatine,
glucose and chemical celoring and
ziavor; tea made by mixing mag
zletic oxide of iron with tea dust
and rolled by means of starch into
pellets resembling genuine tea;
chemical vinegar, catsup and table
sauces containing no vegetable mat
ter whatever; pickles made green by
II preparation of copper; wines
Sweetened with glucose; beers rank
with salicylic acid; whistles diluted
with proof spiritus and artifcially
beaded with sulphuric acid and
-slRoothed with olive oil. Is it not
shout time for the passage of a first
~class pure food law?
1t is indeed high time that the
people of this country should be
protected against the dishonesty of
manufacturers who poison ourdaily

stringent pure food law should be

DECORATION DAY.

CPRINGs SWEETEST BLOSSOMS

all the beautiful resting places where
our soldiers have fallen asleep. Safe
from the toll. the heat and burden Of
the day; safe from the tongue of malice
and Of envy; safe from the whitening
blight Of poverty, Of sorrow and of toll
unrequited, these men who fought their
countrys battles await the angels

returned to their common mother and
in her welcoming embrace they have
found that peace which passeth all
understanding"
Those who are hOncring the memory
of the dead must voice n prayer Of
thankfulness that there is no blue, no
gray, in the sense Of dividing the clans.
today. All, all are gray; their hoary
heads are crowns of righteousness.
Many are the memories that will surge
through the brains Of men who hating

Did I say 'better'?"
All of US saw the boys march away
four years ago. Don't you remember

Don't you remember how proudly they

And weren't you proud Of them? Didn't
you glory in their patriotism? They
were our boys; boys from our factories.

They were Tom and Harry and Bob.
Some Of them are asleep up there on
the hill with the older soldiers. They.
too gave all to their country; they.
too fought the good fight.
And on this Decoration day they will
be remembered. Indeed. they have al

try should be accepted. He might just
as well have been honest and declared
against the principle altogether
Nobody knows Setter than Mr.. eros
venor that it is<impossible to enforce
real reciprocity without in some small
degree affecting American manufac-
lures and products. The wall the beet
sugar trust made over the paltry 20
per cent reduction on Cuban sugar IS
an indication Of the trust sentiment
toward reciprocity. That reduction
may slightly reduce the trusts income
on watered stock. but it cannot par
alyze the industry. Besides, in spite
Of Mr.. Grosvenor's opinions, the sub
tect interests others besides the trusts.
II large majority of the people are
helped by a measure, isn't it the part
of wisdom to adopt that measure?
But The Herald was discussing key
note speeches. While Mr.. Grosvenor
was talking in Ohio, Congressman Long
was talking in Kansas to the state
~--N-N-A Va AAAn party he also
touched off keynote. but It was in an
altogether different key from Mr.. eros

lever in reciprocity, especially reel
proeity with Cuba on a decent scale.
and he told the convention so. The
Kansas convention was strongly in IA

in 1904. The Ohio convention
was not.

ROOSEVELT ON THE STUMP.

IT IS ANNOUNCED from Washington
that President Roosevelt will not
take the stump next fall, as originally
planned Instead of making a stump
tour he will accept invitations to ban
quets and other gatherings where he
can speak with practically the same
effect as though he addressed a multi
tude. If the managers of the Repub-
lican campaign are wise they will not
permit the president to do too much
talking. Theodore has a habit of say
ing many things he should not say and
leaving unsaid many things he should
say.
And in this connection it may be re-
marked that Senator Hanna is singu-
larly apathetic about the coming cleo
ton. Washington gossip has it that
the senator gently, but firmly, declined
to go out on a fat-frying expedition at
the request Of Chairman Babcock of
the Republican congressional campaign
committee. Mr.. Hanna is quoted as
saying that # any funds were to be
raised. Mr.. Babcock would have to do
the raising without any assistance from
the Ohio senator.
You fellows in the house have
turned down the ship subsidy bill. the
only measure at this session in which
have been specially interested, and I
must decline to help you out" These
words are imputed to Senator Hanna,
and ne is very likely to have used them.
AS Mr.. BabcOck estimates that it will
cost not less than $500 to carry the
country next fall, it will be seen that
Senator Hanna's refusal to help raise
funds puts the chairman in a rather
bad place
President Roosevelt is particularly
interested in keeping the house Re
publican, for he doesn't want the poll
ticians to be able to say that a year OF
his administration has caused a re-
versal Of public sentiment. Yet that is
among the decided probabilities, hard
though it may be on the chief execu-
tive.

MR.. suTHERLAND's VOTE.

4 LWAYS READY to recognize and
\ approve meritorious actions, The
Herald presents it's compliments to
Congressman George Sutherland for
his vote on the adoption of the rule for
consideration of the subsidiary coinage
bill. IN spite Of the fact that his party
was solidly in favor Of the measure,
Mr.. Sutherland voted with the Demo-
Gratis against it, being the only Repub-
liCan congressman brave enough to
take such action. The Utah representa-
tive knew, as his fellow Republicans
knew. that the passage of that bill
would mean the retirement of every
silver dollar now in circulation. He
did not believe so sharp a contraction
in the money circulation could result
in anything but harm.
The bill looks innocent It provides
for coming all the silver bullion in the
treasury into subsidiary coin and to
recon the standard silver dollars into
such subsidiary coin as the public ne
cessities may require. Who is to de-
eide, If the bill becomes a law, when
the public necessities require the minis
20 begin melting down the silver dol
lars? The work could be begun as soon
as the bullion now in the treasury
vaults was turned into coin, and it
could continue at a rapid rate until the
last silver dollar had been retired.
As pointed out by Congressman Bell
Of Colorado, under the operations Of
this bill all the money in the country
except the hank currency and the gold
would be very promptly withdrawn
from circulation. AS matters stand
there is too much money to suit the
bankers. Henry Clews very frankly
declared not many weeks ago that
something would have to be done to
make It less easy to secure loans.
Money was being borrowed at too easy
rate Of interest, and Mr.. Clews had
a touch of Mysteries over the possibiIi-
ties in store for the poor credit mer-
chants Of the land.
II the pending bin is passed It will
De followed by others, not at this ses-
sion, perhaps, but surely at the next.
Among them IS the measure placing the
circulation entirely in the hands Of the
bankers and giving them a premium
for taking charge Of it. In view Of the
approaching election this bill has been
shelved temporarily, but it is by no
means dead. The passage Of the sub
sidiary coinage act Will encourage the
Republicans to further efforts in the
interests Of the money monopolists.
and In the end, unless the people awake
to the situation. Wan street will be Civ
en- everything it demands.
