The bill providing for the es-

making quite a stir among the
private banks. Many of them
say that if their affairs be made
subject to inspection and they
are required to publish state
ments as the National banks do
that they will have to shut up
shop. This is really one of the
very best features of the present
bill and those private banks
which won't bear public inspec-
ton ought to shut up.

FOR HOMELESS CHILDREN.

A highly meritorious measure
now before the present Legisla-
ture is the proposition to estab-
lish an Industrial Training and
Reform School for the helpless,
parentless boys and girls of this
State, between the ages of eight
and sixteen years.
The bill contemplates the Sc
lection of a site for the school
through the competition of
towns, asks the appointment of
commissioners for this purpose
and provides tor an appropria-
ton of $1,000 with which to meet
the expenses of making the
choice. Itfurther provides that
the cost of site, which must con-
tain not less than 500 acres,
shall not exceed $4,000, and
that the buildings and other
equipments erected thereon
shall not exceed in cost the sum
of $40, 900. For the establish
ment of the school s65, 900 is
asked for in all to be available
out of the revenues of 1906, ex.
cept the first thousand named
which is to be available this
year. The institution when es.
tablished is to be under control
of the State, and of course kept
up by taxation as is the State
University, etc.
To briefly state the case the
object of this legislation is to
furnish a home with common
school education and proper
training for manual labor, to the
deserted, homeless, helpless lit
tie white waits of Texas; to feed
them, to clothe them and to
teach.them the ways of honest
labor until arriving at an age
when they can shift for them
selves. Truly, ifany class need
legislation and ought by all
means to have it, it is the poor
helpless orphans Of our country.
The News is not lost to the
fact that a great deal of work
along the line of caring for the
homeless little ones, is done by
the churches and outside benev-
client institutions, but they don't
and in the very nature of things
can't care for all of them. All
over this great State of ours to.
day, are many homeless little
waits, and they should at the
public expense be furnished
refuge from restitution and the
road to crime.
Aside from the benevolent
features of this proposed meas
ure, which surely within them
selves, would appeal to all but
the most callous heart, there is
another way to look at it; it is
good policy, it will rather save
money to the State than add to
the burdens of government. The
News can make this statement
authoritively, because over halt
of the prisoners in the State to-
day are out of the class of chill
dren who, abandoned in their
tender years, drifted easily and
naturally in the paths of vice
and crime.
Texas has provided we'll for
some of her children. Her great
University with its departments
of law, medicine and art; her
Agricultural and Mechanical
College; her State Normals, all
offer fine opportunities to GER
tain classes; even the afflicted
are seen after to considerable
degree, the deafs, dumbs and
blind are homed and educated
at the State expense, but no.

been solicited to enter the three-horse
special match race for a $2500 purse,
and the race is on and will be run off
Saturday, December 90.
This race will be the turf attraction
of the winter and will bring Bear
catcher, Cruzados and Handzarra to-
gether in the six furlong sprint for a
stake purse.
Bearcatcher will be the favorite for
this race, since the decisive defeat
which the Ferguson runner adminis-
tered to Cruzados yesterday in the $500
match race at Ingleside.
Bearcatcner trailed Cruzados into the
stretch, with the Baldwin sprinter u
block in front. but Bearcatcher closed
with a rush and ran away from Cru
zados winning the five and one-half
furlong dash i'm the mud in the remark
able time of 1907.
Handzarra is owned by r. b. Van
Meter and unfortunately for the good
flly's chances pulled up lame after an
exercise gallop yesterday. Van Meter
considers the injury slightingly and
says his speed marvel will be on edge
and will run away from the streaks
from above.
Cruzados and Bearcatcher will be
shipped from Ingleside Tuesday and
will be at Ascot Wednesday evening.
