JUST FOOLISH CAB.

Judge Poindexter, who aspires to
be in the race for governor, gave ex-
preston to the following in his Cor
sicana speech:
IF Colquitt wins there will be an
anti-pro party and if Johnson wins
there will be a pro party Here is
the rock that will split our state.
Give us constitutional prohibition and
keep it out of politics"
This is nothing more nor less than
foolish CAB. The inference is that if
the voters elect Poindexter there will
be no issue and hence no split in the
party. This cry of disrupting the
party has been heard often. In the
campaign between Hogg and Clark the
cry went up that the party had been
split in two, but today the Clark and
Hogg lines are almost, if not quite,

PICTURESQUE FIGURES.

H. o. Havemeyer is dead. 1t is with
the greatest regret that those who
have occasion to mention his name in
the trial of his former employees do so.
They feel kindly toward him and it
hurts when they think that this case
of defrauding the government out of
duties on sugar traces its way to his
grave.
1t is customary to speak well of the
dead. 1t is not difficult. There is
SO much that is good in all men that
when death has opened the eyes of
mercy a mans virtues are more Wis
ible. 1t is not hypocricy; it is merely
a willingness to be fair after the strug-
giles of this life have ceased to blind.
oreaIlizers of big cnmnanies
have something picturesque about
them. They are men of wonderful
strength. They were loyal to their
friends. When they were rising in
the world the ballot box suffer was
an honored institution, the briber was
numerous, politics had never felt the
effects of reform, the general intelli-
gence of this country was much lower
They were used to riding over strict
Interpretation of the law to do things.
Their consciences were not forever
sharpened by the more idealistic
viewpoints of these modern times.
They had to get rebates or the other
man would get them If they didn't
bride the other man would bride and
they would be lost. They related,
fought, bribed, coerced, threatened
and altogether stormed their way
through life
But when H. o. Havemeyer died
his last words were instructions to
look after the boys" He turned to
think with regret that he was leaving
them in trouble.
These men are more picturesque
than anything else. Their relation to
the world of business is very much
like the relation of the cowboy to
modern Texas. The cowboy drank
vile whiskey, tried to break as many
of the ten commandments as possible
every day and closed the evening by
shooting up a saloon or some neigh
Dor. But he also chased the Indians
out and put cattle on the Texas
plains where nothing but jackrabbits
had been before.
Just at present the country is hear
ing with interest about an attempt to
grab Alaska. There are parts of
Alaska which belong to the people
But the people are careless about
Alaska. That doesn't justify an or
ganization of capitalists to steal it,
but it tempts the organization of cap
italists to steal it, which is not far
from admitting that it might be just
as well for them to steal it and do
something with it. This admission is
not made because eventually the peo-
pie are going to use that land, but it
illustrates the point
They are queer lot, these older
captains of industry to whom trade
regulation is so CALLING. but they don't
catch the modern spirit quickly after
half century of their own kind of
business regulations and it is natural
for them to number the men to whom
they have given remunerative employ
ment, point to their mills and rail
roads and to what they have done for
the material welfare of the country
and ask vindication on that ground
Whatever else may be said of them
they Cooked after the boys" regard
less of cost or danger.-San Antonio
Express.

1t passes all understanding why a

LABOR AND CANDIDATES
II. G. Wagner Says the Choice Is Be-
tween r. V. Davidson and Cone
Johnson For Governor.

Austin, Texas, June 6.-"The repre-
sentatives of organized labor must
choose between R. V. Davidson and
Cone Johnson for governor, if they
wish to see their platform and prin-
ciples adhered to and promoted" said
III. G. Wagner acting commissioner of
labor statistics and secretary of the
joint labor legislative board, today.
AS secretary of the joint labor leg
.islative board Mr. Wagner says that
he mailed to each of the candidates
for governor on May 10 a series of
questions, asking them to state their
position on the labor platform adopted
at Galveston at the convention of the
Federation of Labor. He says that

last week he registered to Candidate
Colquitt another list of the questions
which were addressed by him to all
candidates for governor; that he holds
the receipt register card showing that
Mr. Colquitt received the questions,
but that he has received no reply
whatever from Mr. Colquitt to the
questions.
In speaking of the replies received
