then again came the whitslc for the
end of the half. The whole half was
in Bates territory. Then in the
second half, when Maine really scored
it had less license to do so than in the
first half when fate kept 1t back from
the goal line. A bit of bad general
ship on the part of Bates helped
materially in this score. ON the third
down with the ball on it's own rs yard
line Bates, by all the rules of the
game, should have kicked the ball far
down the field Instead of that. a fake
punt was tried and did not work. and
the ball was in Names lands within
easy striking distance. If tn. trick
had worked it would have been allied
as great gcncralship; as it failed it is
condemned as fatal blunder That
is the way with other things in the
world besides football. 1t was here
that coach Mccoy showed his gcnlus
by putting in fresh backs. and though
Bates made splendid defcnSes on it's
one yard line the ball was pushed over
by inches and the game was won.

The papers were all wrong in the
lineup of the Bowdoin team in the
Tufts game. Manter played at right
half back instead of Wilson. as stated
in the reports, and it was Hughes, not
Hurley. who played the game at right
end. Hurley, the freshman from
Exeter, is still tangled up in some en-
trance technicality and in the mean
time Hughes who is a Brunswick boy
ard Il senior. is making good at end
whore he was shifted from fullback on

greater work could influence me to
go, impels US to acquiesce in the
conclusion thus reached, though 1t
| grieves us much.
I'd. That when Brother McPher-
son came into our midst some thir-
ty years ago, young preacher,
Waxahachie was then but small
| town, and our congregation consist
ed of but very few members, and he
was the first preacher after the or
ganization of the church here, and
with the exception of about five
! years at Fort Worth, one year in
! Gainesville and about one year as
managing editor of the Christian
! Courier, his entire ministerial work
has been devoted to the church at
| Waxahachie.
| 3rd. That he has we'll and faith
fully served the church here is fully
attested by his long and almost I'M
interrupted service as our minister
covering a period of a quarter of a
century. The membership under his
| wise and faithful guidance, has
steadily grown until now and for

and fully reciprocate the beautiful
sentiment contained in his letter Of

ingly and tenderly refers to his long
association with US In which hts life
and ours have been entertained at
the marriages, the baptisms and the
| funerals. These tender cords of love
| which thus bind our minister and
congregation to each other will
| never be severed, and this testimo-
ny he leaves of his devotion will
ever be treasured up by US and will
be a constant source of comfort and

joy to our hearts. That ''love begets
love- is truly exemplified in the re-
lation which has so long existed be-
tween him and ourselves. Through
all these years there has been a con-
tinual manifestation of love for our
minister, and through his watch
care and devotion to us and his in
terest in our spiritual growth and
development, he has wisely led US
thus far, and now that we are soon
to be deprived of his wise counsel,
strong leadership and eminent abil-
ity as preacher and teacher of the
Gospel, we will feel his loss most
keenly, but his inestimable influence
will ever continue with u.s.
5th. That whilst we lose him as
our minister, we feel that the cause
Of Christ as represented in the
Texas Christian University, has gain
ed an able advocate, an earnest
champion, and this should recondle
us to the separation.
9Th. That in his resignation let US
hope 1T may not necessitate the re-
moval of himself and family from
our midst, for not only have they
endeared themselves to us as con-
gregation, but likewise the citizen
ship of Waxahachie, and their re-
moval from our city would be
cause for general regret,

POOR MISSOURI, LUCKY TEXAS

1t is out at last. Bravely the
grand old state of Missouri fought
against it, but in vain The govern
ment census enumerators were OBJ
durate, and all the batteries of Mis-
souri, eloquence did not avail to
keep from the world the burning
truth.
Missouri is no longer the ONE of
the mule. Figures, plain, cold i'm
mutable, published in the depart
ment of agriculture's annual census,
show that for 1907 Missouri had on
| ly 321 600 mules. Texas had 637,-
900. Poor Missouri.
| AS the home of the long-eared,
sirenvoiced quadruped, which, like
the musical comedy ingenue, knows
both how to sing and kick, Missouri
has long pointed to itself with pride.
Gray mules, dun mules, black mules,
roam mules, mules with long flap
ping ears, sleepy eyes, and gently
twitching tails, gay mules, sad
mules, mules that wore
on their faces the traces of some Sc
cret sorrow, mules that could fling,
with a single kick, hind foot shoe
into the next township, mules that
were gentle and even kind, mules
that helped with the Cuban cam
n on nd nf
mules that fought the Beers in South
Africa, mules that helped dig the
Panama canal, mules busy building
railroads into the great northwest,
big mules. little mules, fat, jovial
mules, and thin wan mules-all
have in days gone by been proud to
remark in the language of Balaam's
ass, grandfather of all good mules,
I'm from Missouri; you know the
rest
But they can do so no longer
Texas mules are to those of Mis-
souri, as an army Is to an encamp-
ment of the state guard. Texas is and
will continue to be the real home of
the mule, and Missouri must take a
back seat
The Texas mule is no joke. At
$91 a head, the price which the gov
eminent puts on him, his total value
is a shade under SEQ, 900, 900. And
S91 as price for Texas mule is
joke. $3.50 is much nearer his value,
but at an average of $125 a head
the total worth of mules in Texas
will run up to s171,35o 900.
And this is wealth that belongs to
the farmer. 1t is not iaie wealth like
stocks, bonds, REM house or uncut
tivated land, but nnarl every dollar
of it is produ ing wealth. Texas
mules break up the I'D cattle pas
lures for fields. where later snowy
cotton bolls will lest. Texas mules
cultivate corn fields that produce
over 0,000,tG6 bCshel. annually
Texas mules haul cotton to the gin
and take the family to town to spend
the proceeds of the crop.
The man with the hoe has a po-
etc sound, but the man with the
mule is much more practical. Long
live the humble mu'e. ard Texas his

ALIENS AND ANARCHISTS

Hon. James F. Cunningham of
Abilene, candidate for congress in
the Fl Paso district, insists that
aliens should be barred. He says:
Those who are coming here in such
hordes have lived under tyranny for
centuries. They are people who have
no appreciation OF free govern
ment in which the people have the
voice. They have no respect for gov
eminent; they hate all government.
And these are the men who furnish
our anarchists" The slayer of Lin
coin was native American; the
slayer of Garfield was a native Am
erican; the slayer of Mckinley was
native American; the leader of the
Chicago anarchists was native Am
OF Carter Harrison was native
American; Judge Hargis, leader of
the Breathitt county anarchists was
native American and the parricide
who slew him is a native American;
the perpetrators of the gigantic in
surance swindles are native Ameri
cans; the men who wrecked the New
York banks and trust companies
are native Americans and the Ken
lucky and Tennessee night riders
who take life, burn property and
flout at the law are native Ameri-
cans. The heads of the so-called
criminal trusts. now being prosecut-
ed, by the federal and state authori-
ties, are native Americans. An alien
anarchist is not dangerous. The
nearest lamp post settles his case.
His tongue is his weapon and his
bark is worse than his bite 1t is the
native anarchist, the man who de-
fies the law and sneers at justice
who is hard to control in this rich
nation of ours. President Roosevelt
has another name for them-"rich
malefactors. Mr.. Cunningham says
he is from Arkansas. If he were
from Missouri he could be shown
