The first called session of the
/ Thirty-second legislature came to a
stormy close, and that which was
j lett undone by this strenuous set 20
reflect to the hurt of Texas was
promptly supplied in the nature oil
a veto by our christian governor. We
doubt il ever before in the history
Of government Just such another
muddlcd state OF affairs has existed
Tern with thirsting after political
pie and determined to legislate
then selves into office or to keep the
other fellow out, a majority of the
diEnified senators have made monk
eys of themselves, using Texas as a
thing to be made sport of. AS to that
part of the session and those mem
bers OF the legislature who were hon
estly disposed to a thorough inVesti-
cation of conditions that make
against honest elections we have not
the slightest criticism to offer, Much
was brought out in that investigation
which will cause at least a more
careful distribution of blandish
ments in campaigns to come. AS to
the governor, in using the power of
veto he has, without stopping to
consider the consequences. permit
ted his personal spite towards the
attorney general to become respon
sible for an official act that may
practically close up that department,
which. as things are now running
is far more important to the state
than is the governor. For reasons
best known to himself the governor
has seen fit to stop the appropriation
made for the advancement of the
state university All down the line,
if the matter is carefully studied, il
appears that the governors veto as
to appropriations made, was direct
ed at those departments towards
which the chief executive had grie-
vance. In announcing the ending OF
this session press dispatches all |
agree that the governor is determin |
ed not to call another session. Let |

RED CROSS STAMPS BARRED.

Order Is Issued Against Adhesive
Matter Pasted on Mail.
Associated Press Special.
Washington, August 30.-Serious
inconvenience in handling the mails
from particular localities is being
experienced by the postal authori-
ties on account of the general use or
adhesive stamps other than United
States postage stamps.
In view of the trouble experienced
from the use of the Red Cross
stamps during the last Christmas
holiday period, Postmaster General
Hitchcock issued genera order
that no adhesive stamps except UNI
ted States postage stamps should pc
attached to the address side OF
letter or package.
Tens of thousands of stamps now
are being issued, including Panama
exposition stamps, various state eX-
position stamps and what are known
as the Mcnamara legal defense
fund stamps, authorized by the Am
erican Federation of Labor.
Thousands of letters bearing such
stamps on the diverse side OF the
envelopes are being received at the
dead letter office, The problem OF
handling letters bearing such stamps
is so serious it was decided by Post
master General Hitchcock and Third
Assistant Britt no stamps resembling
United States stamps may be used
on either the diverse or reverse
of mailed envelopes. This order Will
eliminate from the mails absolutely
the Red Cross stamps and the NC
Namara defense fund stamps, be-
cause on their faces they are called
stamps"

Our dearly beloved brother of the
Waco Times Herald is wrong again
not that he is frequently wrong
but rather that he occasionally let's
his foot slip thus causing his mind
TO wander This paper has never
sanctioned the union of church and
government, but we do believe in
christian government for a chris
tiau nation We subscribe fully to
| the doctrine of rendering unto
| Caesar the things that are Caesars s,
and unto God the things that art
Gods This was especially empha-
sized in the brief article to when
the dear brother down on the BraZos
makes lengthy reply The govern
meut cannot clothe the governed
with Righteousness, but at the same
time it is possible for the govern
ment to be clothed with righteous
ness. Much of the law that controls
this great free land is based on
morals. yet we have not heard it
charged that, in demanding the en-
forcement OF these laws, the church
was trying to detract from the power
of the government Why should the
restriction Of traffic that is running
the lives and dwarfing the intellects
of the people be less a matter Of gov
ornamental action than the restric-
ton of marriage and the regulation
of divorce? No, dear brother, we full
ly realize that the government can
not do Gods work in reforming the
world, but it can do mans work in
restricting and prohibiting those
things which produce crime, 1t is diff
ferent, don't YOU see, when you come
right down to real understanding
| of the question. That which requires
police regulation becomes a ward OF
/ the government, and the govern
ment has a right to control it. There
is no intermingling of the church
and state in this.
