eryone showed great respect and a de.
sire to see the famous bell. 1t was
about four hours late in getting to
Dallas. but men. women and children
waited patiently in stiff northern
wind to greet it.
Last Sunday we had cold ram to
blow up, then it cleared off nicely
before night. Then we had rousing
big frost, the first we have had here

and warm again, so the cotton raisers
can gather their top crop, which will
amount to many thousand dollars to
Texas.

FANNIE BELL. BROWN.

The death angel visited the home of
Mr., and Mrs Jesse Brown and took TO
glory their little darling girl. She
was bright and sensible child and
was loved by all who knew her. She
fell asleep at 300 O'Clock Friday
morning to await the resurrection
day, where she will wake in heaven
with Jesus. Oh, 1t was sad to see the
little one die and hard to give her up,
but the Lord knoweth the best. Lit
tie Fannie Bell was nine years old.
No one can tell how she suffered. She
had not been we'll for over year, but
Jesus took her out of this old world Of
suffering. Weep not. loving parents,
brothers and sisters, for we all have
TO die some day. Our friends and rel
atives will follow us to the lonely
graveyard, just "a Fannie Bell has
been, and take the last look upon us
on this earth. Just think the day will
come some time when we can meet to
say goodbye no more, and no one will
be dying up there. Although she had
been sick so long her death was un
expected. She leaves to mourn her
loss father, mother, one brother and
two sisters. May God bless this fami-
ly and he with them now and forever,
as all are in great sympathy with the
bereaved ones. 1t was so sad to look
down in the little casket at the pale
hands folded over her breast but, dear
parents, put your trust in God and
some day soon or late, you can meet
your darling in heaven where you will
never part any more. We know her
parents can not forget her, as her
memory fingers here on earth. A Sc

mates Little Fannie Bell sked..them
before she left this world of sorrow, to
sing, "Tbat Bright Day May be To
morrow" Funeral services we're con-

"A precious one from US has gone,

A THANKSGIVING HYMN
W
LoUELLA C. POOLE.

For well-filed rivers, teeminQ lakes,
Vast forests where the wildbird wakes
The siences with song,
For bounteous crops, for gushing springs,
For all of earth's fair goodly things
To Thee all thanks belong
From perils of the shifting sword,
The smoking cannon, plunderiAg horde
From all grim Wars dismay,
Its every bitter circumstance,
We thank Thee for deliverance-
We thank Thee, Lord, today.
That not unmarked is Sorrows wall,
That love and mercy still prevail,
We offer grateful praise
That Hope and Faith have not yet died,
Though Mercy oft seems cruclfied
So wicked are mems ways.
Omay we, Lord be undismayed,
Though heavy is the burden laid
Upon the heart of man;
Though mighty grows the vast world-grave
No ignominious peace we crave
AS part of our life's plan.
For faith that War shall sometime cease,
For hope of Universal Peace.
For every blessing poured
With lavish hand upon the earth,
Unmindful of mans little worth,
Once more we thank Thee, Lord!

pRoHIBITIoN UPHELD

o,smnia. July 27.-The way was
"a for an early determination in
state supreme court of the valid
- :, The statewide prohibition law
Judge D. F. Wright of the
r.,r.ton county superior court this
.ornoon handed down his decision
icing the injunction sought in the
:, @. Gootstein case to prevent
novarnor Lister, Secretary of State
! M. Howell and other state officials
,.om declaring the act to be in force
January /, 1916. Judge Wright dis
noses of the voluminous citations of
minority submitted to him in a two
,.ge decision. The appeal will be
heard before the state supreme court
dur,ne the coming October term.
The decision in full follows
AFTER mature deliberation l have
.rrIyed at the conclusion that the
.,over of the plaintiffs complaint
sbould be denied. In seeking FOR
,hs basic principle which should
control in this cause | have consid-
ared initiative measure No. 3 in the
oame light as though it had been
nassed by the legislature.
1.-THE prayer of the complaint
barein Is, In substance, that the sec
ratary of state and the governor be
restrained, the secretary from issu-
ing his certificate of convass, and
the governor from receiving such
certificate, and issuing any procla-
nation thereon, and finally, that the
attorney general and others be re-
strained from enforcing or seeking
to enforce the provisions of said
measure.
I'm my opinion the relief prayed
for Is not within the power OF the
courts to grant, regardless of whetn-
Ter or not the constitutional and stat
utory steps relative to submitting
the measure we're complied with, and
also regardless of whether the said
woYisions are mandatory or dirct-
w, especially so now that the cleo
ton Is over and the people have act
ually expressed themselves on The
Nv fhig I
question here presented Is not one
now for judicial inquiry. Under oar
constitution government i, divided
into three departments, each indie
pendent of the other. In this acton
the court Is asked to usurp the func-
tons of the executive department ny
enjoining the chief and other eX9cu-
tive officers from performing what
they conceive to be their duty under
the constitution relative to legisla-
ton enacted by the people in their
sovereign capacity.
This being true, the tenpora"y
AoOi b'aulSu u6l6IH was IMPROVE
IDENTIFY issued and no rights were ac-
CURED under it. Therefore the sec
retary's certificate and the COVER
nor's proclamation became conclu-
siVe upon the courts. AS 70 the con-
stitutionality of the act, this court
adneres to the rule laid down by the
supreme court Of this state, wherein
II is said: When the constitutions
atty OF an act of the legislature is
Drawn In question the court will not
declare 1t void until its invalidity is
20 apparent as to leave no reason
apie doubt upon the subject.
This court is not so convinced
ana therefore holds the measure to
De valid and constitutional.
