The federal industrial commission
investigating the conditions Of ten
ant farmers in the South picked up
some interesting facts out in Texas
which tend to confirm the wide
spread suspicion that a man needn't
stay a tenant farmer unless he
chooses to and that his own extrav-
agance and unthrift are more respon-
sible for his poverty than q hard
hearted landlord. A press dispatch
tell the story:
Judge M. M. Brooks, of Dallas, a
north Texas land owner said for sew
eral years he has had a standing
offer to become security for any of
his tenants who will save $1,000 and
buy a farm, backing the tenant until
the farm is paid for.
~ never got one man to accept the
OFFER" he said. Many have made
the $1,000 but they would blow it
in. The great lack by tenants in
this country is lack of common
sense. 4 have seen them ploughing

Judge Billingsly, Of Miami, is not
satisfied to wait until the people can
votA upon the question Of statewide
prohibition but proposes to press a
bill through the next legislature that
will hasten the dry spell by psoovid-
ing that saloon revenues shall be d.
verified from city and county treas
uries to the State treasury, thus kill
ing the favorite saloon argument
that the liquor traffic helped largely
to pay the expenses Of city and
county governments. We may be
dense, but we can't understand what
this has to do with the constitutional
provision which, as we, are informed
requires that the question Of state
wide prohibition shall be submitted
to all the voters Of the State at
general election.
