You Can Travel Anywhere and Eat Anything They Serve, If You Have Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
 With You.

Millions are used every year--and when every other man or woman you meet recomme ends them to you if you will but inquire-why do you continue to suffer from stomach trouble?
 The reasons why Stuarr's Dyspepsia Tablets are such a widely used rem edy are very easy to understand. These tablets contain almost the same elements as the gastric juices of the stomach. And when your stomach is sick and not working just right, it does not give out enouh of the na- tural digestive juices to properly take care of the food you eat So if you will only give the stomach a little help by taking a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet after meals you will relieve the stomach of it's chief duty and al- low it the rest it needs to recuperate. One grain of the active principle in a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet digests 5000 grains of food. whether you place it in a glass jar with cooked food or in your stoch after you have eaten the food.
 All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and once you try them you will never again wonder what to do for a disordered, weak, sour and sassy stomach. 50 cents a box.

 Instruction in elementary mining is recommended by the British Board of Education for schools in mining districts. It is suggested that such instruction can be most effectively given, not in separate and detached lessons, but in connection with the regular school subjects.
 Separate schools are necessary for the proper solution of the vocational school problem in the United States according to Edwin G. Cooley, of Chicago, special investigator of voca- tional education. These schools, says MT. Cooley, must not be regarded as substitutes for the present schools, which are doing satisfactorily nec- essary work. but as supplementary to them.
 There is high school over a store at Norris. Missouri. Four families who wanted their children to have a high-schoo1 education without go- ing to town for it esta blished such q school over the village store, Nine teen pupils, girls and 14 boys, at tended this school last year. The course of study is that of standard Missouri high schools, and the work is fully approved by the State au- thorities. Other country high schools of the same kind are planned.

General Tellez has been placed in
command of the government troops
in operations against the rebels in
the northern part of Mexico, succeed
ing General Huerta, who has been
granted temporary leave in order to

1T is believed that it may be many
weeks before Huerta will be able to
again assume command.
Just where Orozco is operating is
yet mystery to the war department,
but they have been lead to believe
that he is either with Caraveo near
Musquiz, or with a new and large
group of rebels appearing just west
and north of Torreon.
Word has been brought to Tor
reon by courier that the rebels
near the Refugio mountains defeated
a small force of federals Thursday
Those operating near Musquiz are
said to be more than holding their
own.

SEEKS INFORMATION
ABOUT THE VALLEY
For Publication to Show Great Re-
sources of Southwest, Both of Ag-
riculture and of Deep Water.

Charles e. Trimble Of San Antonio,
travelling staff correspondent for the
Manufacturers Record of Baltimore,
arrived in Brownsville last Friday
night and will be here several days.
While here Mr. Trimble will gather
information for a book to be issued
by his publication early next year,
treating with the agricultural pos
sibilities Of the South, and particu-
larly devoting section to the South
west. It's title will be "The South;
the Nations Greatest Asset" He is
also to deliver an address before the
meeting of the Rio Grande CONNER
cial Secretaries Association next
Wednesday,
In speaking of the book, Mr.. Trim
BILE stated that while in the North
recently and in talking with people
there he was asked many questions
concerning the Lower Rio Grande
Valley, and it's adaptability to
farming. He said that special refer
ence is to be made to this section,
answering those questions Also the
port facilities and deep water pos
sibilities as they concern Browns
vile will be given prominence.
The book is to treat Of the scien-
tific principles of agriculture, and it
will try to break public opinion in
upon the large landholder, who, it
believes, is a great detriment to all
sections. 1t will also have some
thing to say against the initiating Of
realty values; something that has
proved, now is and, as long as it
lasts, will injure any agricultural
section.
Mr.. Trimble says there are three
sections of this continent that are
being talked about, agriculturally.
They are Western Canada, California
and the Southwest. The Southwest,
he said, Is in competition with those
sections, and if it is to get its share
Of the immigrant farmers it will
have to turn the tide of immigration
from those sections According to
government statistics, 10000 farm
ers left the United States in 1911.
going into Western Canda. The
statistics also show that each of
those farmers annually expends a
minimum of $500. According to
these figures, this country is, there
fore, losing $15, 100000 annually
that it might as well have as not
According to Mr. Trimble, the
book will seek to show the greater
possibilities of the Southwest, both
in agricultural and mineral resources
than any of the other sections
named It's purpose will be to prove
to the farmer who seeks a new loca-
ton that the Southwest has a greater
future before it than any other
farming country in the world.

ton, has reached the conclusion,
stated in a letter to the commissioner
Of Indian affairs, that the order
ought not to be made, and that those
persons who are now engaged in
teaching in government schools as
members of the government civil
service, and who are wearing the
garb, should be permitted to remain
in the service and while discharging
their duties to wear the garb. I con-
cur in this view, and the order as
revoked will not be revived.

Little Attention Paid to Indians.

At first the government gave very
little care or attention to the teach
ing of Indians, and was quite will
ing to accept the services of any re-
ligious denomination engaged in
missionary work which would take
charge of the education of Indians
and give them sectarian teaching,
and we all should be most grateful
to those denominations who were
willing to spend the money and the
effort not only to educate but to in
still moral and religious principles
in the young Indians, who were
wards of the government. After a
time it became the policy Of the gov
ernment itself to assume the burden
Of the education of the Indians and
to direct what il should consist in,
and it is evident from acts of con-
gress that it was and is the settled
intention of congress that the general
education of the Indians shall be
secular and nonsectarian and that
their religious instructions shall be
separate and left to the volition Of
the Indians and to the care of the
denominations to whose communion
they belong.
1t has been a frequent method to

The Presidents Order.

President Taft'S order follows:
In January of this year the com
missioner of Indian affairs issued al
order to superintendents in charge
of Indian schools, directing that al
insignia of any denomination be re
moved from all public rooms Of such
schools, and that the members
any denomination wearing a distinc
tive garb should not wear it while
engaged in lay duties as government
employees. l directed that the order
be revoked and that action by tho
commissioner of Indian affairs bt
suspended until such time as to per-
nit full hearing to be given to al
parties in interest and conclusion
be reached in respect to the matter
after full deliberation. Accordingly
the secretary of the interior has
given a full hearing to the parties ir
interest, and printed arguments have
been presented.
Religious Garb the Issue.
I The issue is confined to the ques-
tion whether those persons engaged
in teaching Indians in government
Indian schools, and who are members
of the government civil service
should be required to lay off theii
distinctive religious garb while they
render service as government teach
ers.
The secretary of the interior, af-
ter very full and patient considera-

Only 81 Wear Garb.

1T appears that out of 1900
teachers in the Indian schools there
are 81 who wear a religious garl
and who are regularly classified
members of the government civil ser
vice. To direct them to give up thei1
religious dress would necessaril!
cause their leaving the service be
cause of their vows under whicl
they have assumed the garb."
Secretary Fisher holds there is NJ
legal prohibition against the employ
ment of government teachers whG
wear religious dress; and that opin
ion is endorsed by the president.
is pointed out that sectarian relig
ious instruction is not given in any
of the schools now under govern
mpnt control
Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1912-09-23
Final Step in Controversy.

The presidents ruling is the fina'
step in a controversy that has en-
gagged the interior department with
religious bodies for more than &
year. Commissioner Valentines or
der would have prohibited an,
teacher from wearing religious garl
in the Indian schools after the enc
of the last school year.
President Tafts order, and a let
ter from Secretary Fisher to Mr.
Valentine, which accompanies it
lay stress on the fact that Valentino
issued his ruling without consultin'
the secretary or the president: and
while the matter was under investi-
cation. Mr.. Fishers revocation o.
the order now made is final.
Education Left to Missionaries.
Secretary Fishers formal letter
states that the government had lon
lef the education of the Indians tt
religious missionaries; and tha
when it finally began a systemati'
handling of the education problem
it took over many of the religion
schools, and brought their teacher
into the government classified ser
vice.
"The transfers thus have Otter
been effected by the government
renting denominational schools an(
taking over the whole plant and tn
teachers as WELL" said Presiden
Taft.
