Temperance in Texas,

Texas saloon keepers are before the
public in the unaCcustoned role of reform.
ers, Last weeks elections resulted in the
extension OF the "dry" areas, 1O4 of the
236 counties, under the local option law,
having declared for prohibition of the
traffic in liquor. Fearing that the sue
cess OF the prohibitionists may fore
shadow the adoption of a state prohbi-
tory law, the Liquor Dealers Associa.
ton has presented to the legislature
bill providing that
ANY saloon keeper who sells to minors
or to students, who allows his place TO
be used for gambling or any immoral
purpose whatever, who permits disrepu-
table characters or criminals to frequent
hlssaloon, or who sells on SUNDAYS torfeits
his license for two years. At the end of
each year the saloon keeper must renew
his license and must make oath that he
has been guilty of no infraction of the law
IN the course OF the preceding year If it
can be shown that the law has been vio-
lated IN any particular the offender will
he punished with Imprisonment.
Whether the straight out prohibitions
lists or the enlightened saloon keepers

The othcer charge of the United States

the young men from this state who enlist

OF Vermont helps breed fine men and

The home coming of Judge Henry c.
Ide naturally raises the question whether
his health will allow him to remain on
the Philippine Commission where he has
been so USEFUL these past few years. He
has been so highly honored in the colo
NAL service that he may decide to rest on
his laurels for awhile and ENJOY the free
dom from official cares in his Vermont
home. Should he decide to remain in
Vermont it would not be the strangest
thing in the world to have him consid-
cred as a candidate for governor next
year, though probably this is farthest
from his own thoughts at the present
time. Judge Ide is splendidly fitted for
the highest elective Office in Vermont and
would be an available candidate if he
was not in the government service.

There will be no open saloons in Brat
tleboro this year as the commissioners
will grant no licenses except to hotel
keepers, one wholesale concern and the
drug stores. Two OF the drug stores
will take second class licenses, paying
$500 for liquor bought but not drunk on
the premises. The commissioners will
not accept the bonds of the American
Fidelity Company Of Montpelier from
license holders, as they believe the intent
of the law was to have bonds furnished
by responsible citizens rather than by a
corporation. Ex-Judge Ross has rem
dered the opinion that surety bonds are
all right and the Montpelier company is
furnishing them in various places through.

In 1880, we drank for the year, 10

dropped from 1.39 pounds to .94 of a

passes his life in knocking every local

Bad Policy.

We always did hate to see candi-
dates appealing to a baser prejudice
OF the voters. We hate to see them
harping upon the race question.
The race question has been settled
in Mississippi for 10 these many
years, and SO long as the blood of a
Cavalier flows through the veins of
southern men it will remain settled.
No good can accure from all this
beating OF the bush and muddying OF
the waters much more likely harm.
Let the state candidates pitch their
campaigns upon higher plane; such
sentiments appeal to the people for a
moment; but upon a sober thought
they soon arrive at the conclusion
that it is all "bosh. Laurel Chron-

THE NEXT LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR.

We are glad to know that consfd-
cradle interest is being manifested
throughout the State in the race for
Lieutenant Governor, and it is espe-
sctally gratifying that it is practically
an assured fact that Senator w. G.
Kiger will be elected overwhelmingly.
This is no surprise to the people who
know Senator Kiger and those who
are familiar with his record as a pri-
vate citizen and public Official. Being
clean, high-tOned and honorable man
without any OF the bad and vicious
habits of many public men, he is uni
versally esteemed and admired as a
citizen, and his political prestige and
popularity is attested by the fact that
for the last twelve years he has repre-
sented his county in the State Senate,
with distinguished ability. AS State
Senator, his colleagues elected him
unanimously president pro TEN of the
State Senate at the last session Of the
Legislature. and during the sitting of
that body, he made a Statewide rep
utation as an accomplished parliament
tartan and an able presiding officer.
Thus our readers will see that we
are advocating the candidacy of a
man of stainless private life, an able
and experienced legislator and one
peculiarly qualified for the particular
office to which he aspires, by reason
OF his experience and eminently satis-
factory services in the past, in a po-
Sition whose duties and qualifications
are the same as those OF the Office to
which he aspires. Another thing
that should recommend Senator Kiger
to large majority of the voters of
the State, is the fact that he is a
farmer. It is generally conceded by
thoughtful men, that the agricul-
turistS Of Mississippi, who constitute
a vast majority OF our voters and tax
payers, are not accorded that recOg-
milton to which they are entitled.
We believe that Senator kiger is the
only practical farmer who is a candi-
date for State office. and while we
do not contend that the people should
vote for any man simply because he
follows some particular occupation,
or is engaged in some special business,
we do insist that the farmers of Mis-
Sissippi are not given the recognition
to which they are entitled, and that
when one of them, who like Senator
Kiger, is worthy and qualified and
closely identified with their needs and
interest aspires to any office, that he
should receive the support and en-
dorsement of the people of Mississippi,
and thereby, equalize to some extent,
the distribution of the offices of honor |
and trust.
In the election of Senator Kiger,
Mississippians will reward an earnest,
able and worthy son, who will reflect |
ON them and the Office which he holds. |

Ny old home, my childhood homo,
When drst mine eyer beheld the light;
The old-time rooms, not eramped at all,
How comfortable they look and are;
The spacious hall and great long porch
Shaded by the evergreen branches of the
Laura-munda bush,
And the long waving cedars over-reaching
and tall,
The sunlight scarcely can touch it At all.
How restful and dreamy the old place looks.
All! how I love its every Granny and nook
Every window. every door, even the nails
that rivet ceiling and floor.
The graceful and sturdy oaks that shadow
the lawn.
Meath whose branches in childhood I played
Lonely guards, sigbing ut the changes time
has made.
l love to seek their shelter now,
Sweet companions they are; they whisper
and condole with ME
The soft, low rustling or their dark green
leaves,
Stirred by the breath of some southern
breeze,
Is as music to me; sweet whisperings Of dear
ones gone away.
Just now, the Snow Ball bush
Grandma's special pride and care,
Is weighted down with its many trusses Of
snow white flowers,
Waving and nodding to the April showers.
II could have my way would have it to
stay just so, always.
1t seems so companionable when in flower;
But n thing Of beauty is always soon to fade
away.
Ere many days the White Fringe tree
In all its grace and loveliness will be ar
rayed;
The yard all over, the front and back,
Seems on gala dress parade.
Vying (they whisper me) with each other,
Hoping each to rival the other
By some added grace OF color.
In my affection and esteem.
