SUES FRATERNAl ORDER,
ASKING REINSTATEMENT
Plaintiff Also Would Prevent Mac
cabees Increasing Dues and
Assessments.

jeremiah ]. Sullivan has asked the
District Supreme Court for a mandatory
injunction to require the Knights of the
Naccabees of the World to reinstate him
as a member in good standing and to en-
join the fraternal organization from
changing the contract for dues and as
sessments entered into with him in 1891.
Mr.. Sullivan, through Attorney w.
Gwynn Gardiner, attacks the right Of the
organization to amend it's bylaws and
increase it's rates, which was done In
1904. Mr.. Sullivan has only recently at
tanned the age of ffty-five years, when
his certificate was affected by the changes
attempted TO be made.
He tells the court his dues were In
creased from s2B annually to $500 .
year. He declined to pay the increased
rate and also refused to surrender his
certificate for Endorsement Of changed
conditions.
He declares he has been notified that
his certificate has -lapsed. and says the
action of the organization is unlawful.
At no time has the financial condition
Of the company required an increased as
sessment. says Mr.. Sullivan. At the
time OF the attempted change. he says,
the surplus of the company was several
millions. and according to its last annual
statement is $13,Oi5. .0S.

The following from the Texas Farm
and Ranch is worth while: The time
has come when agriculture must be-
taught in the public schools, if we ex-
pect to maintain our supremacy in ag-
ricultural wealth. This important
branch of science should have place
in the city schools as well as in the.
rural districts. The boy and girl of
the city laborer and the wealthy man
ufacturer and successful business man
have right to study the fundamental
occupation of this country. They
have right to choose some line of
scientific agriculture of plants,it
teaches the dignity of labor and 5, q
reverence for rural enyironm1
This. every child should have. Evera
citizen of this commonwealth what
ever his occupation may be, should
honor labor, and respect those who
will till the soil, and reverence nature
which is Gods handiwork Unless
these sentiments are taught in youth,
many of the comforts, pleasures and
endearments of home may never be
enjoyed These ideals are just as
necessary, just as essential, just as.
indispensable in the city schools as
they are in the rural districts"

Miss cronin,s Thursday at Home.

The studio of Miss Marie Cronin,
looking out over Alamo Plaza, has be-
come the popular resort of artists and
| lovers of art, especially on Thursdays
when the gifted young artistic is at
home to all callers.
The situation of the studio makes
the afternoon hours the best for view
ing the beautiful portraits that line
its walls. One, OF Miss Cronin her
self, full life size, by the world fa-
nous Castalucia, under whom Miss
Cronin studied in Paris, hangs con-
spicuously on the south wall, and is
thanked by smaller, though hardly
less perfect productions of Miss Gro
Minis own brush.
Miss Cronin is a native born Texan,
and Texas has much to be proud of in
her, for she is really and truly an
artist who has arrived" She will
point you out which picture of hers
received No. at the Paris Salon this
season, and which one last season,
and another one that was at first OBJ
securely hung and afterwards placed
second as its merits appealed to the
judges to whom she was an absolute
stranger and therefore without influ
ence to bias in the slightest their
choice
1t is charming to hear her chat OF
the old French convent wherein she
lodged during her years in Paris;
and of her own trials and discourage
ments and triumphs, as well as those
of her colleagues, aspirants to fame |
via palette and brush. Indeed, every
thing about Miss Cronin is charming, i
for she is a woman thoroughly devel
oped and rounded out by education,
culture, travel and the realization of q
splendid gift An afternoon with her
is rare treat and a great privilege.

KEEP THE RECORD STRAIGHT

An est emed exchange, the Pales,
tine Daily Herald, says:
The Dallas Times Herald reads the
Herald a lecture because this paper
said that the railroad commission
should be removed from politics. Our
Dallas neighbor says good men and
great men have been making races
for other offices while holding office
for many years, and cites number
of cases to prove the point. The
Herald comedies this argument, but
still insists that railroad commits
sioner has no business mixing up in
contests while holding his office. The
reasons for this belief are too appar-
ent to need argument.
This reminds us that Anderson
county was the home county of the
lamented John H. Reagan He was a
candidate for governor against Chas
A Culberson and S. w. T. Lanham
He was chairman of the board of rail
road commissioners at the time, he
made an active canvass and the Her
aid supported him. "The reasons for
this belief are too apparent to need
argument Dallas Times Herald.
The only fault the Herald finds with
the above comment bNuitsuaaa1 I1IIEil
contemporary is that it is not true;
the Herald had not been born at the
time mentioned by the esteemed Fitz-
gerald Keep the record straight.

DOWN IN MEXICO.

News reports from Mexico tell OF
the arrest of Francisco l. Madero,
rival of Diaz for the presidency. A
rival to Diaz, in the eyes of Diaz, is
a revolutionist. Through a strong
show of military power, and through
the workings of the most powerful
monarchial government in the world,
a government that is republican in
name only, revolution has been kept
down these many years; and perhaps
it is well-for Mexico.
But one does not have to live in
Mexico long to know that government
by the people is unknown there;
thele is no such thing as a popular
election, for the ordinary citizen
never knows anything about an cleo
ton, never votes, and absolutely has
no voice in government. If criticism
is offered such as is freely INDUCED in
here, and which is countenanced, the
critic would be classed as a revolu-
zionist. and he would be jailed-if he
did not flee the country.
These observations are made by
one who has tried it out in that coun-
try, who has had business experience
there, and who has had experience
with the government Mexico is the
Palestine daily herald. [volume] (Palestine, Tex.) 1902-1949, 1910-06-10

in Dallas to boost the Colquitt candi-
dacy, are very largely the same men,
if you will read their names, who have
been fighting all of the anti fights in
this state for the past many years.
When a local option fight is on in
their respective homes they are out.
and out ants, but when state move
ment is on they become the defend
ers Of the local option idea. In short.
they profess to believe in local option

one-man government

most complete one-man government
on earth.
Then is it any wonder that the
flame of revolution shoulders? Is it
any wonder that men who are patri-
otto enough, or who are brave enough
to oppose the despot and announce
opposition are jailed, and even exc
cuted? Hundreds of them have gone
the way that Reyes has gone, and
the way that Madero will go, until a
time when the tide will turn. And
that time will come when old Diaz
dies. And then! You can look out
for trouble across the border, for it
will most likely come fast and furious.
