TEXAS NORTHERN
BORN CITIZENS.

There is one thing We like about
our Northern-bor citizens, all over
Texas, but especially in West Tex
as. They soon become imbued with
the chivalrous spirit of the South
and their children are taught to
love it and 10 reverence its tradi-
tions. We do not mean that they
embrace our political faith, for that
is a point in which no mans opin-
ions can be called into question,
but in all essential characteristics
of the Southron they are with US
and of Us, and when we express our
admiration for and love OF the
Southerner we include the man who
has adopted the South and who is
helping us to develop her great pos
sibilities, financially, morally and
socially.-Abilene Reporter.
Texas has never had reason to
complain of her Northern-born citi-
zens. They have done their share
in the development of the State and
are among the most progressive ele-
ment OF our citizenship. The twelfth
census shows that of 100000 white
population of Texas, born in other
States, over 100000 were born in
Northern States. This has been a
fine mixture, and the result has
been a generation of the best Amer
leans to the found in the United
States. Texas has ever had a warm
welcome for the right sort OF North
ern people and they are the sort
that have made their homes here.
Every community in the State can
testify to the truth of this state
ment.-Galveston News.

A Pineapple Farm.
Corpus Christi sun;

Corpus Christi sun;
Monday Mr.. Geo. G. Clough left
FOR his farm near Flour Bluff,
where he set out one thousand pine
apple slips, that he recently receiv-
ed from Florida. He is confident
that the slips will grow and flour
ISL, and fully demonstrate his the
cry that the pineapple will do as
well here as in Florida.
While at the Oso Mr.. Clough Vi
sited the farm of Mr.. William Sin
ger, where he found the Cessava
planted sometime since up to an
average height of four feet, and
Aourishing as well as any reason
able man could expect. He also
found growing on the same farm
pears, apples and figs. He never
saw pears and figs doing better, and
was surprised at the soundness,
sweetness and maturity of the ap-
pies.
While no one in his widest
dreams has ever claimed this to be
an apple country, Dir. Clough says
The tree on Mr.. Senger's farm is
yielding as well as the average East
Texas apple tree. He was especial
by enthusiastic at the progress of
he figs and pears. Mr.. Clough is
positive that this is destined to
svsAtually become a great fruit and
pear country. and thinks the sub
irrigated soil Of the Oso especially
adapted to the growth of fruits.

Roosevelt Losing Prestige
Well-Informed Politicians Regard
His Nomination as Probable
and His Defeat as Almost
Certain.
St. Louis Republic:

Washington, Aug. 3O.-H is ac-
cepted as a fact fairly we'll settled
that President Roosevelt will be
nominated for President III 1904,
but there is a general belief and
one growing steadily that he will
be defeated.
Had some one asked a few months
ago as to the probable outcome Of
the next election, the answer from
conservative politicians would have
been that Mr.. Roosevelt probably
would succeed himself. The an
swer to-day is that he has not an
even chance to do so.
Well-informed politicians from
all parts of the country assert that
the opposition to Mr.. Roosevelt
which obtains in New York City
from the Wall street element, So
called-has extended to financial
centers in all parts of the country.
1t is claimed now with the ut
most confidence that if the Demo-
Gratis nominate a conservative man
he probably will carry New York,
New Jersey and Indiana, while any
man nominated by the Democrats
will carry the solid South beyond
question.
The Turkish incident has raised
new questions as to the safety" OF
the present executive. There is a
divinity which doth hedge about a
president which makes it impos-
sible to criticise his actions, but the
more the Turkish incident is con-
sidered, the absurdity of the gov
ernment's action is seen.
By clear bull in a cipher dis
patch the president permits him
self to be hurried into a heroic de-
Imonstration of his defense of Amer
lean citizenship-into a most de-
cidedly sooner and previous de-
monstration. Without waiting a
moment to ascertain the facts, as
President Mckinley would have
done, it is pointed out that Presi-
dent Roosevelt, for what is thought
to he political effect, hurried the
navy to make a bluster against the
"Sick Man of Europe" an impotent
power, and the sequel has put this
country, it is said, into very ques-
tionable position before the powers
of the world.
1t is thought 10 have shown a de-
sire on the part OF candidate Tor
reelection to make gallery play
in most important international
matters and one far beneath the
dignity of a government like that
of the United States.
The politicians who are discuss
ing the matter point to this Turk
ish incident as one Of the frothy
performances by the Roosevelt adj
ministration which have caused
distrust in financial circles, and
which Will add to the very serious
and growing doubt Of the advisable
lily of Mr.. Roosevelt's election to
the presidency.

Pelham, N. H., Sept. 6.-Through a hcad-on collision between two electric cars. each running, it is said, at a rate of more than twenty miles an hour, four persons were killed and nineteen were SC seriously injured that they are under physicians care and several of these are expected to die. As there were seventy passengers on the two cars, many others received cuts and minor wounds which did not prevent their going to their homes.
 The accident occurred on the line Lowell and Nashua and one of the cars which was coming from the lat ter city was nearly filled with people on their way to q summer resort. The accident occurred at q curve on either side of which were long stretches of straight track. The dead as reported up to ten o'clock today are:

In many respects the victory of Tom l.. Johnson in tine Ohio convention is empty. It was won by methods which were startling even in Ohio. Election figures in the state since 1896, when the blight Of Bryanism began to thin the ranks of the democratic party, show the process of elimination by which Johnson has maintained himself in power.

Mexican Lottery Scandals.

Developments of a mere or less sen sational character are promised with respect to the Mexican lotteries. There are two lottery companies in operation under government charters. Twenty per cent of their profits are paid into the national treasury, for the main tenance of charities and public i'm provement. A correspondent of the Chi cago Chronicle says that an American detective has unearthed fraud in con nection with the drawing of a capital prize of $60,G00 in gold. A ticket pur porting to entitle the holder to receive the prize was in the hands of a certain Swede. The money was paid to him, but it was left on deposit, so the story goes, in a bank in the conspiracy, and subsequently, returned to the lottery company. The Swede received $100 for his services, and the cashing of the great prize, the first winning known to have taken place for months, was well advertised to bait the public. The de- tective declares that nobody outside the lottery ring can win more than S20. He recalls that the two capital prizes drawn last year were announced as having been won by Mrs. Diaz, wife of President Diaz, but there is no doubt 
 to the transaction" The purpose of the announcement that she had drawn the great prize was to attract business for the Gamesters. The correspondent says that in Mexico, where there are 5000 persons engaged exclusively in selling lottery tickets, there is no need of false advertisements through the press. The Mexican victims are not as unscrupu- lously swinded as the Americans are. The earnings of the two companies are $25, ,000. GOO year. and of this the gov ernment receives the snug sum of $5,- G00, 600. The recent disclosures will re- suit in the reformation of the lotteries, but not in their abolishment.-Phila phia Public Ledger

END OF A GREAT GAMBLER
Bob Murray, Once Famous in the
 West, Dies Poor.

Bat Masterson sat in front of table at an uptown hotel last night and, be- tween sips of mineral water, told stories about Bob Murray, once famous gambler, who died at Kokomo, Ind. on Monday last, says the New York Sun. According to Masterson Murray won and lost more money during his thirty years at handling playing cards than any other gambler.
 He was dead square" said the form CT marshal of Dodge City. He would bet on the length of a calf rope, the weight of dead mans boots, how long it would rain, and all such things. The gambling spirit was born in him.
 "He told me that when d kid at Ko- komo he was the farthest advanced boy in his Sunday school; that he won money on the length of sermons, how many converts there would be in a week or month.
