Good Doctrine.

Governor Crothers of Maryland hits out
straight from the shoulder in his advice
to the Legislature of that State. He be-
lieves in respecting the rights and the will
of the people, and says:
Il am believer in party organization
and in parties. More can be accomplished
through these agencies than through any
other or by individual effort. lam party
man and want my party to place itself
squarely back of the reform measures
which the people want, which the State
needs and which the public has right to
expect. Reform never hurt the Democratic
party. 1t has always helped it. Let us
get away from this idea that there is dan
ger in giving to the people what they want.
There never was bigger mistake. There
could no no worse politics played than to
pull back as the people pull forward. Let
us get away from the apprehension that
we can go too far along progressive lines,
that we can give the people too much OF
what they want"

Death of a Southern Authoress,

Mrs. Mol1ie E. Moore Davis, a noted and
highly gifted authoress, died at her home
in New Orleans on last Friday morning,
after a lingering illness.
Mrs. Davis when only few months old
removed with her parents from Alabama
to Tyler, Texas, and lived there at the
beautiful country house, Sylvan Dell,
which the authoress has immortalized in
her writings. She was educated in the
schools Of Tyler. Her first paid literary
work appeared in the Galveston News and
the old Tyler Reporter, and soon she was
contributor to periodicals in the East.
She was ardently attached to Texas. When
the famous Dallas-Tyler Artillery Com
pany was organized in 1861, leaving for
the front, she presented the command with
silken Texas flag and read before the
assembly an original poem that called forth
a graceful tribute from President Jefferson
Davis. The Mollie Moore Davis Chapter
of the Daughters of the Confederacy in
theTylerP Public Library handsome edition
of her works, each volume bearing her
autograph.
While still resident of Texas she mar
ried in 1874 Major Thomas E. Davis, editor
in chief of the New Orleans Picayune.

No Wonder He Fled.

A tall, solemn looking young man
entered the restaurant with a mild,
apologize air and seated himself ut q

to intrude. He wanted to get as far
away from other people as possible

observer could have told that he was
bashful. Just as his dinner was
brought to him a buxom looking go
man with seven small children entered
the place. The head waiter swept the
field with his eye, pounced down upon
the table where the young man had
sought solitude, motioned to the moth
er, who clucked to the chickens, and
moment later they were all around
that one table.
That young mans face was a serial
story.
Other people entered the restaurant,

The Death of Confederate Hero.

The ..'gray line'' grows thinner almost
day by day. Scarcely does one scan a
daily paper without noticing the death of
some Confederate veteran. On December
18th, Gen. Thomas W .Carwile, commander
of the South Carolina Division Of the U nited
Confederate Veterans, Joined the host on
the other shore.
1t was at the Battle of Fraser's Farm
that Gen. Carwile made his record for gal
lantry and advanced in one day from
private to captain. The order came for the
Twelfth, Thirteenth and Fourteenth South
Carolina Regiments to carry the. breast
works behind which the Union soldiers
were strongly entrenched. Gen. MCGOWAN
wanted some one to carry the colors. The
man who carries these colors must lead the
way and stop at nothing. The troops will
follow, said the general. To carry the
flag in that hail of bullets meant almost
certain death.
'Thomas w. Carwile, then beardfess
youth stepped forward and grasped the
flag. A headlong charge was made with
Carwile in the lead and the breastworks
were taken and the battle won. The next
day the young man was made a captain
for conspicuous gallantry.' He was
placed in charge of a company from OAR
ington and served throughout the war al
ways at the head of his troops and winning
praise from his superiors and the respect
and admiration of his men,

The Necessary Shock.

A college professor had been serious
ly Ill Of fever for several weeks, but
the fever had left him at last, and he
lay in stupor, utterly exhausted.
'This is the really critical period"
the attending physician said to the
watchers in an undertone. III he has
sufficient vitality to carry him through
this, and l am strongly disposed to
hope he has, he will recover. At pres
snt there is nothing we can do but be
patient and give nature a chance,
watching in the meantime for an op-
portunity to awaken his interest in
what is going on about him."
One Of the attendants, who happen
ed to be standing near the window
looking at the rosy sunset, remarked
to the doctor:
See what lurid sky there Is"
The sick man opened his eyes and
turned his head in the direction indi-
Gated.
"Luridr' he exclaimed in a tone Of
disgust. IF you will consult your
dictionary, madam, you viii find that
turid means gloomy. CHASTITY, dismal"
"He will recoverw announced thu

WHAT THE PAPERS ARE SAYING.

Philadelphia North American: The
closed saloons in Mississippi have hung
crepe on their doors. Wouldn't that be a
more appropriate ornament for open sa-
looms?
Louisville Courer-Journal: The solid
South, of which Mr.. Taft complains, is no
more sectional and unpatriotic than, for
example, solid New England. He is only
after Republican recruits. He does not
need them. His party does not need them.
1t is already too strong for the good of the
country. Why seek to re-enforce it by
inviting the venal and ambitious-by
throwing, as it were, a sop to Cerberus-
among the politicians of the South? Upon
the wide and open sea of reactionism and
speculation, the South serves, and will
probably continue to serve, as balance
wheel to the National enginery. We could
not afford to break up and abandon the
Democratic party even if it's fundamental
doctrines had grown obsolete. There would
still remain conditions with which the Re-
publican party is not able to deal. But the
Democratic doctrines are not out of date
They are yet vital In both Houses of
Congress they maintain a most respectable
representation. Upon them we have long
stood and shall continue to stand.

New Orleans Picayune: Notwithstand-
ing the drawbacks, due to financial strin-
gency last year, there was great activity
in the construction of new buildings in
New Orleans, not only in the business
section, but in the residential districts as
we'll. All this indicates confidence in the
future and a determination to push steadily
ahead.
Mansfield Journal: Gov. Sanders has
set his head against interference with ex-
listing laws. The other day an effort was
made to induce him to throw his influence
in favor of repeating the laws forbidding
rece track gambling and regulating the
saloon, but he refused, saying: 81 am
not going to do anything. The laws are
on the books and do not propose to move
against Them
Just fancy having to attend teachers
institute during the holidays! Yet that is
what the teachers of East Feliciana have
to do. We presume the responsibility
therefor Is with the department of Edu
cation" at Baton Rouge, but wherever it
rests it is no less shame. If the children
need and deserve holiday, how much
more do the teachers! A few days more
of recreation would do them infinitely more
good than the tidbits of knowledge gained
in an institute. True Democrat This
criticism of the True Democrat is pertinent
and timely, but perhaps, the Department
of Education' must give some demon
stration Of activity. What better time
could have been chosen to attract the pub
lies attention to this Department of Edu-
cation than this teachers institute during
the holidays?-Shrevepon Caucasian.
