WHY DON'T YOU SPECIFY AND
PROVE?

The Bryan Eagle throws a fit each
time a word of censure is heard
against an A. & NJ. football player.
The Eagle would do the college more
good if its editor would fay those
players who are known to indulge in
unsportsmanlike acts on the field II
is not the boys guilty of dirty ball
playing which make for college sue
cess and a simple denial of it is nos
going to wipe out the stigma so far as
the school is concerned. We all love
A. e NJ. College, but its grand work
is going to be badly handicapped If
dirty sport is not stopped. 1t is high
time that the board of directors take
hand before such conduct is per.
mitted to embitter the people at large.
The sympathy Of the people of Nav
asota almost universally turns toward

class acting together lookout for their
own interest first. This is human ma
ture. An example may be found in the
lamentable condition of our courts as
q result of leaving the making of the
laws and the rules of judicial proceed
ure almost exclusively to the lawyers.
It is alleged that the bankers have
raised a fund of $1,OOO,OOO to be ex-
pended in promoting the Aldrich
scheme. For several weeks The Eagle
sanctum has been deluged with litera'
ture of one kind and another extolling
it's merits and beauties. One form OF
this literature is that Of news letters
furnished free of expense to publish
ers, innocent looking but loaded with
Aldrich currency plan dope. OF course,
somebody pays for all this and our
opinion is that it comes out of that
million.dollar fund. Are not these
facts of themselves sufficient to en-
cite suspicion? 1t seems to be the
plan to rush the thing through before
the people have time to study it,
The Post thinks the banks should
be given power to avert panics. IL
does not require an expert f1nancler
to perceive that this can not be done
without also giving them power to
bring on panics. Does the Post favor
that? The fundamental truth under
living the whole question is that the
issuance of currency is an act Of
sovereignty and it is dangerous for
the government to delegate any part
of its sovereignty to a class of its citi-
zens. The evils of the present system
are due mainly to the fact that the
government has largely entrusted this
power to the national banks.
AS to the implication that The Eagle
is influenced by prejudice, we leave
that to our readers. AS an offset,
though we have no information as to
what Senator Bailey thinks of the
Aldrich plan, we venture the predic-
ton that when the Post does take a
position it will coincide substantially
with that of the junior senator from
Texas.

ASSES THREE.

There is an old story of an elderly
country preacher who met three young
iackanapses and was saluted by them
in turn with: Good morning, Father
Abraham; Good morning, Father
Isaac; Good morning, Father
Jacob" To which the old gentleman
replied: Il am neither Abraham,
Isaac nor Jacob. | am Saul, the son
OF Kish, who went to seek his fathers
asses; and, 10! l have found three OF
them"
The Navasota EXaminer-Reyiew has
made a similar discovery, which it
relates in this paragraph:
THE Bryan Eagle isn't in love with
either Colquitt, Lightfoot or Lane, and
neither is the EXaminer-ReyieW, for
that matter However, in the various
rackets between the gentlemen our
sympathy lies with Colquitt. We grant
that he has made an ass of himself III
more ways than one, but in comparl-
son with the other two Mr.. Colquitt's
assininity can easily be overlooked. III
our opinion that fellow Lane IS the
real agitator and is directly response

scenes up at Austin

porting for governor of the proud
state of Texas one whom it admits

WAYS than one" Well; Everyone to
his taste" as the old woman said when
she kissed the COW.

the A. & NJ. boys in their feats on the
field of sport. However, after the
game with the university at Houston
considerable criticism of A. e NJ. was
heard. Those who visited the college
on Thursday and witnessed the many
vicious attempts to injure Baylor
players during the game returned dis
gusted with the whole business
many claiming that the Farmers
should be ruled from the field entire
ly. No people will tolerate ungentle
manly sport for long.-Navasota EN-
aminer-Review.
If the football players ARE known
to indulge in unsportsmanlike acts 1t
can be proved. AS yet The Eagle has
seen no evidence of anything of the
sort. The editor of The Eagle saw the
game with Baylor and it was a good,
clean game, except scrap between
two of the players for which neither
team was responsible. 1t originated in
Baylor man applying a vile epithe!

senting the insult 1t is incumbent on

Of general cussedness,' the Exam

THE ALDRIcH CURRENCY PLAN.

The Houston Post denies having
been converted to the Aldrich banking
and currency scheme. This is a relief,
for after having spoken of it disparag'
ingly an expression which was under
stood by The Eagle and others to be
favorable to it was published in its
editorial columns.
The Post accuses The Eagle of con-
demning the Aldrich plan without I'M
derstanding all its details. Is it neces-
sary to comprehend all its details III
order to decide whether to support or
condemn it? All one needs to know
is its salient points and general char
acter to enable him to decide whether
or not it is in harmony with our free
institutions and with the interests OF
all the people. We have made an hon
est and we flatter ourselves, a sue
cessful effort to secure this much in
formation. If the Post waits till it has
mastered all the details of a scheme
so comprehensive and complex, the
question will have been settled before
it takes its stand.
While it is right, as the Post says,
to give it a fair investigation, 1t is
also safe to object to its adoption be-
fore its merits have been demonstrate
ed so clearly that there IS practical
agreement, among those qualified to
judge, that it is good thing. While
such financiers as Gen. w. r. Handy
president of the Texas Bankers Asso
citation, and James J. Hill, president OF
the Northern Pacific railway system,
say it is dangerous, the people may
we'll have a care about adopting it in
haste.

bankers favor it, but, granting that
they are as honest as other men, is Il
wise to place in their hands control

dustry? All bodies of men of any one
