Our Senator'S and the Canal.

Senators Bailey and Culberson
have taken a very strong stand
against the canal treaty now be-
fore the upper House for ratiiica-
ton. As n result they are receiv-
ing some very severe criticism and
condemnation at the hands Of
some of the Texas papers.
The Press is not here TO discuss
the merits or dement's of the
Panama treaty or TO dwell on the
so-called virtues or the iniquities
of the administration. This, if
done, will have to come from the
"moulders of public opinion"
But it has this to say of Bailey
and Culberson.
Both Of these gentlemen are
possessed of at least average
minds. They are capable of
Judging between right and wrong
as they may see things. They
ought to be in u position to know
whether or no they are acting and
voting as their constituents would
have them do. Given these ac-
complishments why not look at
their actions as being prompted
by honest intentions.
The Press believes Bailey to be
honest and sincere in his motives.
Likewise Culherson. Neither of
these men have the ability per-
haps that comes from long eX-
perience in public life, but as this
paper sees it they have the funda-
mental honesty of purpose and
conviction. Why not give them
credit for it?
Assume that every man is hon
est until proven otherwise.
Neither Bailey nor Culberson are
guilty of dishonest methods so
far as the Press knows.
Then they are daring to do
what they think is right whether
the things they do be IN keeping
with the opinions Of the majority
or of the minority.
Roosevelt gets credit for hon
esty of purpose. Mckinley did,
Bryan, Sayers, John Sharpe
Williams and Mark Hanna also.
Then why not accord our senators
the same credit.
To look at the matter other
wise, no matter how anxious we
are for the canal, is at once TO
cast a smirch upon their public
character, the doing of which is
unjust and unfair.

Tendency OF the Times.

The tendency Of medical science
is toward preventive measures,
The best thought of the world is
being given to the subject. 1t is
easier and better to prevent than
TO cure. 1t has been fully demon
strated that pneumonia, one of
the most dangerous diseases that
medical men have to contend
with, can be prevented by the use
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
Pneumonia always results from a
cold or from an attack of influenza
(grip), and it has been observed
that this remedy counteracts any
tendency of these diseases toward
pneumonia. This has been fully
proven in many thousands of
cases in which this remedy has
been used during the great preva-
lence of colds and grip in recent
years, and can be relied upon
with implicit confidence. Pneu-
monia often results from a slight
cold when no danger is apprehend-
ed until it is suddenly discovered
that there is fever and difficulty
in breathing and pains in the
chest, then 1t is announced that
the patient has pneumonia. Be
on the safe side and take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy as soon
as the cold Is contracted. 1t
always cures. For sale by The
Central Drug Store.

Senator Marcus A. Hanna.

Mark Hanna is dead. He whose
leadership of man is acknowledged
and whose political sagacity is
uneXcelled has passed ON to his
reward He whose distinction it
was to be called King maker and
who 10y sheer force Of capablllty
and ability to Judge human ma
ture forged his way to the top
round of the ladder of success,
has returned to the same
mother earth where lies his
hest loved friend and our martyr
ed president William Mckinley.
Mark Hanna represented, at
one time, all that was shrewd and
sagacious in American politics.
We have come to forget the things
we have said about him in con-
nection with his leadership of two
presidential campaigns. We have
come to look upon him as a man
with all the faults of man but
with mind and heart far above
the average.
Whatever may be said against
him by those for whom death does
not exert a softenIng influence,
one fact stands out for above all
their criticisms. He was a friend
to the laboring man. He has
been pictured and caricatured as
the representative of the money
power, seeking to crush and con-
troll the workingman, lie has
been condemned because he was

Anent Theatrical Attractions.

| notice an article in Saturdays
Standard wherein "Citizen" com
plains about the Runaway SKIN
Game which appeared at the opera
house at six bits per seat. Well,
"Citlzen" is right. 1t is a shame
that city the size of San Angelo
has to put up with the class of
theatrical attractions it has been
up against lately. But as the
opera house seating capacity as
well as the stage arrangements are
entirely too small to accommo-
date u first-class attraction, it's
practically no fault of the man
agement. Why don't some mon
eyed man build a first.class opera
house? Say one that will seat
from $50 to a 1000 people and
have ample stage room to accom-
modate any size attraction. Such
a house would easily get tenant
in the shape of a competent man
ager who could supply the proper
attractions by playing them on a
guarantee basis. The manage
ment of the Turn Verein opera
house has always been handi-
capped by a lot of useless and
senseIess bylaws which tie the
hands of the manager so that he
can't make any contract with a
guarantee clause. And it is inn
possible to get any first-class at
fractions otherwise. Such a house
as | describe above would Justify
manager to guarantee $3.50 for n
Iirst-class one night attraction
and this amount would get most
any of them. While we are think
ing of Greater San Angelo let's
also think Of an opera house that
would be credit to u city.
Somebody start the ball rolling
and sufficient stock can be sold III

room, probably hoping that a stray crumb might be found somewhere about the premises. The cat was just then hidden by the position of Jacks feet, and the unsuspecting rodent proceeded cautiously on a voyage of exploration. while puss seemingly slumbered, and Jack quietly awaited the probable out come.
 The rat had just reached the easel and had some into full view of the cat, when the latter. with the instinct which never sleeps in feline natures. made a vicious spring at her prey. Unfortun- ately. she miscalculated distance or direction and struck the easel, which came down with a crash and held her, scratching and splitting, under the heavy picture. in rage and astonish. ment. The rat was surprised out of its sense. and made a wild dash towards Jacks feet, hunting a place to hide. Women are not the only ones who can be frightened by rat, and when Jack saw the little animal coming towards him. he sprang up in alarm and upset the table. The lamp fell into basket of waste paper and exploded, and In a moment the room was filled with light. This completed Jacks demoralltzation and he made a dash for the hall. where he collided with a young woman who came out of an opposite door, and she incontinently fainted in his arms with out stopping to ask any questions.
 Thinking 1t was his bounden duty to save something or somebody, Jack promptly fled down stairs and deposit ed the young woman on the pavement, while the landlady and her maid rush. ed up with buckets of water and ex- tinguished the flames before much dam age had been done.
 By this time the fresh air had reviv- ed the young woman and Jack had found time to reflect that he had made spectacle of himself on very slight provocation. Making a lame excuse to the girl he escorted her upstairs and back to his room to survey the dam ages. feeling more kinds of a fool than he was willing to admit.

I'll kill that cat and set a trap for the rat. and then I'd better go out and provoke somebody to drown me in a mud hole. Wouldn't that young lady's opinion of me look delightful in print?

Jack had just had supper and was industriously puffing at his pipe and reflectlng over his prospects, occasion ally dropping into soliloquy. a habit formed and encouraged by the general absence of any other person to talk to. He had no acQuaintances among the boarders. and neither his means nor inclination were such as to tempt him to dissipation. Consequently most of his conversation was addressed to him self or his cat.
 Tt really seems to me-" he unused, "as If matters are not properly evened up in this old world Here am I. 24 years sold, Mems sana in corpore sanoS as the law books have it, anxious and itching for practice-and fees-ready to accomplish wonders if somebody would only give me a fair chance, but no cnance presents itself. and here I must rust and almost starve while others are thriving.
