CONE JOHNSON.

We believe in Cone Johnson; we
believe the man stands for what he
advocates in his public addresses. We
believe him to be a State-wider from
principle, an honest man and mar
who is capable of discharging the
duties of the exalted position he
seeks at the hands of the democracy
of Texas. He stands out big as one
of the states intellectual giants, and
as an orator his peer is not to be
found in the south. 1t has been this
writer's pleasure to hear w. c. P
Breckenridge, the silvertongued spell
binder of Kentucky, Belmont and Sui
ger of New York, Bryan of Nebraska
when at his best, the mighty ]. S
Hogg in his palmy days, Senator Cul
berson, Stone of Missouri, and the
eloquent Joseph w. Bailey, and after
hearing all these men, men who
have made patriotism run riot and
the blood Jingle in your veins, and
cause peculiar sensations to charge
and recharge the marrow in the back
bone of saint and sinner alike in the
ranks of the democracy, we hold
steadfastly to the opinion that Cone
Johnson of Tyler stands, Saul-like
head and shoulders above them all, as
speaker, in eloquence and sound
reasoning, logic, with the possible ex
ception of the junior senator from
Texas.
The Messenger is not looking at
Cone Johnson as he appeared in the
campaign two years ago; we are not
viewing him from the standpoint OF
Bailey or anti-Bailey follower We
have risen above petty prejudices and
warped political propensities and take
the Tyler man as he breaches prohi,
bition and clean living.-Decatur Mes,
senger.

youngster of 1S years tried to hang

in that brief story; and it is sadder
because there are so many thousands
of children who do not seem to have
the happy faculty of making them

impossible to be popular. Some do
not care to be popular and wish only
to be left to themselves. But wherever

Most of the time the parents are
entirely oblivious of the child's I'M
happiness. Sometimes they are quick
to its defense when it is abused, but
careless of giving it the advantages
and training which would make this
suffering unnecessary. In spite of all
the stories of happy childhood days.
of recollections of fishing ponds and
swimming pools there are thousands
of men and women in the United
States who look back upon their child
hood days as upon a nightmare. If
it is a girl it was because her clothes
never seemed to look just right and
her hair was awful red or she had
big freckles. If it is a boy he was
careless of clothes when trees were
to be climbed or not very nimble

colleges are essential, but no plan
has ever been tried out that pro-
duced quicker and more substantial
results than the above described plan
would produce. And it is by no means
new plan. The government has
been doing this for years, and in a
number of cases individuals have
tried the experiment on a more or
less extended scale. With the funds
Rockefeller proposes to jar loose
from, invested in lands as cheap as
they are in East Texas, thousands of
people can be made happy, idle
lands put to work, the railroads
given more tonnage, increasing the
food supply, adding to the raw ma
terial for clothing manufacture, and
creating bigger demand for kerosene

WHERE JOHN D. CAN LABOR.

If John D. Rockefeller really wants
to do good office for hundreds of
people and help them to help them.
selves, the Herald has plan to sug.
gest that seems to it very clear and
plausible. He has the means and the
time to tackle the great problem OF
bringing the people back to the soil
for livelihood Take, for example
the thousands of uncultivated acres
of East Texas that are only awaiting
the industry of man to make them
blossom into gardens of plenty. And
then think of the thousands of good
men in the great cities who are
struggling along trying to make a
living. If the Rockefeller movement
would take over thousands of the
idle acres, improve them to a certain
extent, so that a penniless man
could get hold and start to work, and
then distribute these home places out
in thirty or fifty acre tracts, giving a
tract to the man who would meet GER
tain and fair conditions, thousands of
good people would grab at such oppor-
tunities, and the result would have a
doubly beneficial effect, in that it
would provide homes for the home
less and at the same time increase
the production of the country and
reduce the cost of living on many
articles of necessity. Libraries and

Commodore Peary refuses to sub
nit his proof and congress slaps him
on the wrist and tells him he will
have to come across. Congressman
Macon of Georgia is something of a
scientist on his own hook, and figured
it out that Peary could not make the
time he claims to have made after he
left his white escorts, not if there had
been a bunch of poles to discover.

The Houston Post defends the ac-
ton of the late and lamented legisla-
ture in refusing to submit submits
sion to the people as demanded by
the state primary vote. The Post
says, and this is clear dodge, that a
mere majority never has and never
will have the authority to change the
constitution. That was not what the
Legislature was ordered to do; but
merely to submit the question to the
people for their Endorsement or rejec-
ton, and the majority certainly has a
right to demand such privilege
The legislature did worse than that;
it obeyed the demand of the minority
and refused to submit submission to
vote. Our understanding of a DEM
ocratic government is one where the
people rule, and clear majority is
certainly entitled to the decision. AS
the thing now stands the legislature
is the government, and the people,
the majority, are-well, joke.
