by virtue of his position he knew
better than almost any one else the diff
ficulties that would attend the protection
of a parade held under the circumstances
and the indignities to which the paraders
might be subjected. He had a good con-
ception of the size Of the crowd that
would be present, its character, and its
disposition. He had had much expert
ence with Inauguration crowds, and knew
that with two or three hundred thousand
people collected from ali over the country
of all classes, and some of them out for
a good time, this crowd would be very
difficult to control. He knew the envi-
ronments along Pennsylvania Avenue
and the character of many in the crowd
who would congregate there. We are
satisfied that he made these suggestions
to these ladies not because OF any un-
friendliness to them or their cause. but

Debate often Earnest.

very earnest, and at other times anus
ing. Senator Sherman of Illinois de-
clared that the word. lobbyist" was so
indefinite that the resolution should set
out the Presidents words used in de-
scribing it, in which he referred to 1t
as numerous, industrious, and insid-
ious."
Some of these representatives OF the
predatory interests may not be recog-
nized by the new Senators and they may
commit some of 1t before we are aware
of it," suggested Mr.. Sherman.
Senator Williams sharply rejoined that
IL the investigation was to be seriously
conducted it would be just as well to
leave out 'ironical filings at the Presi-
dent
Mr.. Sherman retorted that he had
simply quoted the Presidents words and
inquired why President Wilson should
have indulged in 'fronical filings"
Senator Bristow of Kansas was insist
ent that the resolution should require
Senators to disclose the character of the
representations made to them. He point
ed out that the Senate and the committee
ought to be allowed to judge, after learn
ing of these representations, whether the
Senator to whom they were made had
fallen into the hands of the lobbyists and
not leave 1t to the Senator himself to pro-
claim his status.
Senator Lodge, Senator La Toilette, and
others read from the Century Dictionary
and other authorities on photography
definitions of the word lobbyist. Senator
La Toilette pointed out that "in the big
gest scandal that had touched the Sem
ate in recent years" the man responsible
for trying to influence the course of the
Senate was far removed from Capitol
Hill.
Senator Penrose again appeared in the
role Of humorous. He said that he had
read recently IN the newspapers how a
number of guileless Democratic Senators
had absorbed the suggestions Of man
who was trying to advance the appoint
ment of an applicant for q diplomatic po-
sition.
Many Senators here are new and un-
sophisticated and my not known lobby
ist when they see him." said Mr.. PEN
rose. Gold bricks are floating around
the Capitol; we have many new Seria-
tors, and they should be protected. They
may not know the sinister design that
turks beneath the smooth exterior of
some of these gentlemen who come seek
ing favors."
The most earnest speech Of the day
was by Senator Root of New York, who
appealed to the Democratic side not to
emasculate the Cummins resolution. but
to pass 1t in the form in which 1t was
introduced, requiring a full disclosure. He
pointed out that the President had made
his accusation after the tariff bill had
passed the House and while 1t was pend
ing in the Senate. The President had
charged that a lobby was seeking to
bring about changes in the bill.
ANY Senator who now votes to change
the bill, in face of this charge voNes
under the imputation of having his vote
controlled by the lobby"
Senator Root declared that the investi-
cation should be sweeping, and that it
should not be allowed to drift down the
stream in the usual way Of investiga-
tions."

CLEAN UP.

Ii is unfortunately true that the plea
FIR a clean mp. in view of the coming Of
the South Texas Gardeners Association
is founded in a need for Il clean up as
well as III civic pride. The question is
not merely academic. 1t is eminently
practical. There are streets and alleys
in Brownsville that need cleaning. They
need il badly. The question therefore
PASS from the sentimental To the prac
tical-or rather it starts from the sent
mental and includes the practical
tt is to our credit that We want PEG
pie to approve our beautiful city. We
want them To. approve our paved streets
and Il wers-the blowing olcanders
and The stately palms. No man can rob
rs Of The distinction that We have Il
beautiful city.
From The practical side of things we
know that wc have come to the season
Of the year when W~Sanitary streets and
alleys are peculiarly dangerous.
Les us combine the two inducements
and act accordingly. The Chamber Of

and The bcautfying OF it.
Like the practical leyelheaded people

WEDNESDAY, july Is. 1913.
LOST NO TIME.

The friends of the amendment giving
the university the right to borrow mon
ey for b~etterments, must remember that
nothing but q strong sentiment in its
favor can save il from defect. 1t will
poll a strong vote beyond question. Yet
a strong vote will not suffice. The pro
position must be carried by Il two thirds
vote.
We must also remember there is no
political organization back If it. No pol
itical Office will reward any man who
works for it. No something's are be
ing held to create public sentiment in
its favor. No one is likely to hirccar-
riages to take people to the polls; no in
tereSted politician will bring out the
Indifferent voter.
Therefore the friends Of the cduca-
tiOnal system Of the state should take
q day of and devote it to this very i'm
portant matter. The thing that Will kill
the measure, if il shall be killed, will
be indifference.
In Brownsville, be il remembered at
the time 0f good roads election, some Of
the polling places were not opened at all
Remember il is somebody's business TO
open them. See that no officer entrusted
with that duty forgcts it..
There should really be a mass meeting
of the friends Of the measure Def the
election. This is Il matter that CON
cenrs not only the people-of Brownsville
but all other places in the country.
1t is quite within the bounds OF rca-
son to say that no more important a.
elction has ever been held in the coun-
ty than this. Let Cameron County do
its duty in this matter.

sition IN 1905, and R+appcfnted In 1911.
The county board of education consists of
j. C. Sales, Columbus Oates and J.. W.
Morgan.
Mr.. Shitle came here from Buncombe a
number of years ago, and is an experienced
teacher. Before he w@ appointed superin-
tendent, he had taught successfully at Fruit
land and at Flat Rock In addition to his ex4
p~erience In other counties. As superinten-
dent, he has rendered faithful and efficient
service and has taken the utmost interest in
all that relates to education.
Tn Hendersonville graded school was es-
tablished in 1901. The enabling act was
passed by the Legislature early in that year,
the necessary tax levy was authorized by a
vote of the citizens in the summer and the
school was opened In the fall.
1t was the day of mall things in Hender-
s~onvile. The school was held in a rented
building which was dnadequstely equipped.
Two years later the building was purchased
by the town, and gradually the equipment
was increased. The school grew rapidly
an dthe number of teachers was increased
fro mtime to time.
In 1910, the trustees, realizing that the
school had altogether outgrown the capacity
Of the building, decided to urge the erection
of a new and up-to-date building. The Leg
i~slatture of 1911 granted an amendment to
the school charter authorizing a bono cleo
ton; and the election was held in May 1911
when the bonds we're voted by an over
whelming majority. The building was be-
gun that year and was occupied by the
school during the latter part of the session
Of 1912.
R.. N. Twins, the schools first superinten-
dent, resigned In 1911 after ten years of
valuable service. William Henderson Gale,
a Wake Forest graduate with many years
successful experience, was elected to the po-
sition and entered upon it's duties in Septem-
Der 1911. The white school at that time
had nine teachers including the superinten-
dent. In 1912 two additional teachers were
employed and an extra year was added to
the school course, increasing the number of
grades to eleven. A business. course was
also added. Next session the number of
teachers will be increased to twelve and the
school will be strengthened by the addition
o IA department of manual training.
Superintendent Gale, during his two years
connection with the school, has rendered
very efficient service and has been able to
inaugurate SOM important improvements.

What Real Decency Is.

There has been so much dull, degrading drive in
the guise of sex literature the one hand and so
much prurient Comstocksm on the other, that 1t Is
refreshing to read Judge Learned Hands clear
words on the law on this subject The matter be
fore him was book Of the current crop. The court
held that it was for jury to decide finally whether
the work was obscene. lewd or ascivious.' But IL
so holding Judge Hand uttered these striking words
| question whether in the end men Will regard
that as obscene which is honestly relevant TO the
adequate expression OF innocent ideas, and whether
they will not believe that truth and beauty are TOO
precious society at large TO he mutllated IN me
interests of those most likely to pcrvert them 10
base
Indeed. il seems hardly likely that We are even
to-day so lukewarm in interest in letters or
serious discussion be content to reduce our treat
ment of sex to the standard OF childs library IN
the supposed interest of SdlaciouS rev, or. lhal
shame will for long prevent US from adequate poI-
trayal of some Of the most serious and beautiful
sides OF human nature
better rebuke for the prurient minded has sci
dom been offered That there can be abuse of such
a liberal rule Judge Hand comedies. But he pro-
ceeds TO make it clear that court and jury can
give short shrif TO the author who tries 10 use the
privilege as "a cover for lewdnesS and a stalking
horse from which to strike at purity"
This Is indeed going to the root Of the whole mat
ter Every one knows that the question Of dccency
and propriey is one not much of literal words
used as Of manner and intent Judge Hands view
simply applies the law in right, common-senNe
fashion. May it prevail.
