NEW YORK, Jan. 4--Major General
Frederick d. Grant, son Of the famous
civil war general and president, while
on a visit to the automobile and avi-
alton show in Grand Central Palace
expressed himself as being in favor
OF government aid for the aviation
art. General Grant in this sugges-
tion supplements his former opinion
that aeroplanes will be OF inestimable
value in warfare as scouting machines.
After spending two hours looking
over the exhibits Of aerOplanes of all
makes he said to Captain T. T. Love-
lace. director Of the aviation section
Of the show: when 7 was ambas-
sador to Austria I was with Sir Hiram
Maxim one day at Vienna talking over
aeronautical topics, and Maxim took
from his pocket a calling card. He
tossed it sideways In the air and
watched It sail. Then he took a large
silver coin and tossed that into the
air with an impetus to make IL sail
on it's side, showing that outside force
alone controlled It's movement. The
difference between the card and the
coin I'm the air Is the secret of the
coming science of aviation said Max
i'm to me. when thrust can be added
to a curved surface there will be a
llying machine that is practical. Max

versation on these matters first COM

As the Rext Democratic candidate for President
Mr. Bryan mentions Folk Gaynor Harmon and
wison Why Folk should be named as his
first choice is puzzle, even to many Of Bryan
9dmrers Folk has been nursing deerepit pres
idential boom for years, but it does not seem to
get far. II is hardly likely that Gaynor will meas
ure up TO presidential requirements. 1t would
seem that either Harmon or Wilson would be the
man, and Mr. Bryan did not like Harmon as a
candidate for Governor. Perhaps Wilson is too
close to the Cleveland stamp to please Bryan, but
at any rate Wilson is much more radical than
Cleveland was and there is no good reason why
Bryan should not support him.

CAMPAIGN EXPENSES.

ONE time ago The Journal said that an agi-
taton would start before very long TO have
the State or the nation pay the expenses of po-
litcal campaigns. In his message 10 the Ohio
Legislature Governor Harmon favored the plan,
being led to that view by the disclosures of whole
sale debauchery in some of the counties OF lower
Ohio
The Governor urges that law be passed re-
quirng the publication VI all campaign contrbu-
tons and expenditures as a deterrent to the IL
legal use Of money and adds that it would be
bettertfor the State TO pay all expenses than TO
allow a condition TO exist that would permit the
traffic in votes.
But il might be remarked that even If there
a law requiring the State TO meet the neces-
sary expenses nothing would prevent men from
employing money "on the side and in a concealed
manner. In truth, it is doubtful whether any
law can be devised to prevent traficking in votes
that would completely eradicate the' evil. But
that should not halt efforts to stop the vote traf-
ickers. Vote buying will be wiped out, as far
as an evil can be wiped out wien a public sent-
ment is created which shallr seriously condemn
debauchery of the ballot box, and when such de-
hatchery is not wnked az by so-caed prominent
citizens who have an unusual thirst for Office and
fear that if they go not tolerate the crooked work
their chances for becoming prominent and active
in public life VII be destroyed.

JUPITER PLUVIUS
HAS CRYING SPELL
Drops Several Tears on the
Pavements Thursday
Evening

Again 1t rained. Not like the down
pour OF Tuesday, but a respectable
little rainstorm in its own right The
rain started shortly before 6 o'clock
and kept at it until the streets were
flooded, the air cooled and the street
car business boosted several hundred
fares in advance.
The rain was accompanied by a stiff
west wind, which made the awning
shelters a bit damp, but the wind and
the rain decided to quit before traffic
was blocked on the downtown streets
The ornamental awnings on the Mills
building proved haven for the trans
fer folks, who huddled under the avn
ings like sheep against the leeward
side of a hill in snowstorm.
A feeble though sufficient attempt
on the part of the sky to weep again
late-never mind how late-Thursday
night, accomplished nothing more than
to run the porch sleepers into the
stuffy bedrooms amid a chaos Of COW
ers. mattresses and metal cots.

The Demagogue

The passing OF the demagogue has
marked an important ~poch in the
progress of Texas. Like the desperate
and the cowboy he has had thrill
ing and exciting career and like them
ne has been compelled to give away
TO the trend OF civilization.
He was the product OF the times and
the harder the times the more perfect
the product A Prince Albert coat. a
SLOUGH hat and strong pair of lungs
and he was ready for the hastings to
warn the people against the approach
OF capital He thrived best upon
strife and dissension and his principal
occupation was in shrewdly arraying
class against class and then leading
the stronger against the weaker force.
With star defying audacity he would
publicly attack the character OF a
prosperous industry and argue its de-
struction with all the logic and sin
certify OF PILGRIM father pleading for
the burning OF a witch He was a
mixture OF ignorance and genius. and
would hunt out prosperous corpora
tons and make their success a spring
board on which he could bound into
tn" spotlight hy denouncing capital as
sapping the life blood of the people
and then proceed To argue hypotheti-
cally the cause OF the down-t rodden
masses with the earnestness of
starving lawyer pleading his first case.
He was patriot for applause and
a politician for revenue md he sought
the goal Of HIS desire with the intuition
of gifted criminal and he would track
his prey with the instinct of a hungry
beast. But he is gone and may his
shadow never again darken the
threshold OF Texas.

The Texas Hog

The dinner bell of the nation rings
out the praises of the Texas hog and
he is diligently sought after by the
consumers of both continents.
No domestic animal has ever made
such sacrifices to meet the demands
OF progress as the hog. He has
given half Of his life and fifty-six
pounds of flesh to meet the market
demand for young stock Certainly the
human race has made no such sacri-
flee for success as this dumb brute.
According to the census reports OF the
Federal department Of agriculture the
average weight of the hog has de-
creased from 275 pounds to 219 pounds
during the past thirty years and he is
now going to the market one year ear
Her than formerly.
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1911-06-30
1e1o VALUE Per HAD s7.7o.

As a revenue producer he undoubt-
edly excels any other animal on
the globe and enjoys the distinc-
ton of being the only animal that
can swell a bank account by empty
ing a swill barrel The hog is the
most prolific Of all domestic animals.
AS a rule the hog is not troubled with
competitors. although King Cotton has
made an effort to initiate his by-prod-
ucts by putting on the market a COM
pound substitute for lard. but wher-
ever the fat OF the hog can supply the
market his counterfeit quickly disap-
pears.
The hog has thiekly populated the
rural districts OF Texas and his rapid
approach has so alarmed city councils
that numerous ordinances have been
passed prohibiting him from entering
the city limits. but when properly
dressed and cooked he quickly wins
the favor Of both aldermen and citi-
GEMS
The Texas swine is the most pros
porous OF ell hogs In the United States
According to the census reports OF the
Federal department OF agriculture on
Jan. 1. 1911. the average value OF hogs
of all ages in Texas was $40. which
is an increase Of 37S per cent since
1870. No state in the Union can conl-
pare with US in increase in value per
head of hogs. Tho total value OF all
hogs Of sll ages at tho present time Is
approximately $4,000. 900. We have
shown an Increase OF 539, 900 IN num-
Der and s17.O0o.o00 in value during the
past decade.
Texas is one OF the best hog coun-
tries on the globe and the animal fat
tens economically under natural con-
ditions.
