When will our young men eaten the

Work Hard; Fare Meanly.
It seems that an essential condition
of success is the necessity OF working

will always limp.
All rich mems sons are not fools,
but, as rule, the heaviest curse on

when he accumuIates riches for them

II seems like the Texas legislature
is very afraid Of committing treason
against someone I cannot see how they
can call 4 treason for a body Of peo-
pie merely TO express their sympathy
for people who are fighting for liberty
Mexico is only a monarchy run under
the name OF a republic, and q tyran-
meal monarchy at that. There are mon
archs whose people are protected and
are a happier, more prosperous people
than the people are who live under the
laws OF the great Diaz republic. And
II Il is treason TO raise your voice and
say, I sympathize for those people who
are struggling for liberty, there must
be a great change in our own repub-
lie that I cannot understand Liberty
Is one Of the most precious gifts that
heaven gave to man, and for liberty
and for honor one ought TO venture
life, and II those poor, weary slaves
are fighting for the protection OF their
homes and loved ones. pray God viii
