REPUBLICAN, EXTRAVAGANZA.

The Dallas News, one OF the most
conservative newspapers In the Unit
ed States, and incidentally one of the
ablest edited and newsiest OF news
papers, sums up the question OF cam
paign issues In the following terse
and telling manner:
at begins to look as IL the Demo-
Gratis would find their best opportu-
nifty in the extravaganza OF the Re-
publcans Never in the history OF
the government has there been such
reckless prodigalty as the Republic
cans have shown, OF all the distinc-
lions which the Roosevelt admins
tration has won the one that Is like
~ to endure longest Is that OF hav-
ing spent more money than any other
administration since the government
was founded. Even when II Is COM
pared with administrations which
have had TO meet the extraordinary
expenses OF war, It remains unriyal-
ed. As an achievement in extrava-
gance It's record not only gives II pre-
eminence. but is apt to maintain It
for long time, because no admins
tration we are likely to have within
the newt twelve years will have the
hardihood to compete with his in
this respect,
"And this Issue OF extravaganza
versus economy is one which the
Democrats can Join with the tariff
So long as the Republican party, out
OF gratitude TO It's campaign contrib
utors. is allowed to levy tariff taxes
at q rate that produces more than
is needed for the economical admin
istration OF government, so long shall
we have n continuance OF this scan.
dalous extravaganza High tariff pro.
tectlonism and extravaganza are
cause and effect. Waste follows not
only naturally, but inevitably, since
II we continue to collect more than
we can economically expend ex.
travagance or dangerous contrsc.
ton OF money Is tho only alternative
Therefore in the absence OF any
over-shadowing or paramount issue
the Democrats ought to he able Ia
make pretty effective cry out OIL
economy in taxation as the surest
safeguard against extravaganza in
expenditure!

THE SANTA FE SHOPS.

The erroneous IDEA, that Amarillo
will not get the big Santa Fe shops,
seems TO haunt the minds OF some
OF our people.
Because the shops are not already
built or even in course OF construc-
ton seems to be the only cause which
has led men TO doubt.
Rome was not built In a day. Sub
stantial Improvements require time
for their execution.
We all remember there has been
a panic land Republican panic,
thank you), which upset the plans
OF many individuals and corporations
as we'll.
There is not the slightest doubt in
our mind that the Santa Fe railroad
company intends to carry out Its
agreement with the city OF Amarillo.
Amarillo has already fulfilled Its
part OF the transaction. The prop
erty desired by the railroad company
has been bought, paid for and decided
TO the company.
We have every reason to expect
that the railroad company in due
time. will build the shops and thus
keep faith with the city.
The Santa Fe people know that
Amarillo is the logical location for
the shops or they would never have
slgnlfied their intention to build
them here.
The Santa Fe eople are aware OF
the fact that Amarillo is destined to
become a large city. They realize
that the establishment OF a packing
house, more manufactures, moro
wholesale houses, a federal court
and building, new water system,
a government experiment station,
possibly sugar beet refinery and a
cotton seed Oil mill. and dozens ~
other new industries In Amarillo will
mean business for railroads: II will
mean carrying freight to and from
the metropolis OF the Panhandle; II
will mean increased passenger traf.

II will mean a city large enough to
solve the question OF labor and house
and feed the hundreds OF laborers'
families; in short II will mean n
community OF such industrial and
commercial Importance that rail.
road cannot afford 20 overlook.
Santa Fe people are shrewd
enough to see into the future. For
their own welfare alone they cannot
afford to take the railroad shops
away from Amarillo
II we want TO take the trouble 10
relieve the uneasy OF our citizens up
on this question, we might appoint a
committee to interview the railroad
officials upon this important subject
No harm could be done by such q
move.
The matter is up to the Chamber
OF Commerce.

Hat Raisinq In Germany.

The etiquette OF hat raising in Ger
many is one Of those things which may
betray the foreigner into unintentonal
rudeness through sheer ignorance. A
correspondent knows Of a German
lady who was puzzled and hurt be

met before did not raise their hats to

came that she expected them to do It

Animal clsnnhness.

A BIOLOGIST thus writes upon a point
In which he claims that the lower ami
mails set an example to many men,
says Chums:
1T has taken human beings many
hundreds OF years to acquire habits OF
neatness and cleanliness. whereas the
animals have always possessed them.
From the time when they first made
their appearance on earth animals have
washed and combed and brushed them
selves with tongue, claws and tail.
Many OF them grow wretched and Ian

OF taking n cold bath. AS for TIN apes,
they are such sticklers for cleanliness

Hopeful Prospects OF Hopeful Texans
The prospect for crops continues
to improve. Wheat and oats turned
out fairly we'll, and are now being
marketed. The yield OF fruits, veg
etables and melons is so great that
much OF these crops is going to waste.
There has never been better sea-
son for hay. A great deal of the corn
in Texas Is now made" and recent
rains have practically assured the
later planting, except the very late
fields which we're planted after the
valleys we're flooded. Cotton Is
growing we'll, and is in good condi-
ton. While there have been some
reports OF boil weevlls, web worms.
etc, up to date such reports have
been less serious than during other
years.
Cattle, swine and sheep are in fine
condition. There has been an abun-
dance OF grass and other feed, and
there have been no extensive or Sc
rious losses as the results OF disease.
The usual complaints of loss of work
stock or other animals have not been
heard up to the present time.
