FOUND IN HOLY WRIT.

We are enjolned TO search the
scriptures, for in them ye think ye
have eternal llfe." In them we also
find food for our every spiritual
need, inspiration and hope for our
depressed spirits, and balm for every
wound OF our hearts. Few more
beautiful tributes TO the scriptures
have ever been penned than the fol-
lowing by state Press OF the Dallas
Galveston News:
THE man who is familiar with the
Bible has a store OF knowledge which
smooths many a rough road for him
and palliates a thousand asperities In
the course OF his life. The Bible
characters were OF a leisurely age
and out OF their leisure they drew and
left TO the world an unfailing source
Of philosophy. There is a verse OF
scripture adapted to practically every
heartbeat. II we are sorrowing there
is 10y for us in the Word. If we arc
Wanting ourselves or making broad
our phylacteries there is warning for
us in Holy Writ. Within the sacred
book is exaltation to the highest alti'
tude and humility to the uttermost
depths. There are songs for those
whose hearts overflow with gladness,
there is the mood OF the dance and
the signs of the lovers. The outcries
OF the prophet who with uplifted
hands peers into the mists that veil
the future lends an Incompatible
grandeur to one page and on the next
page is the sound Of the harp and
timbrel and over it all is the glamour
of antiquity, the splendor of the
Orient, the urgence of the spirit
quickened by invisible imminences! -

The refusal of the State Supreme
Court to assume functions which are
not vested in it by the constitution,
and name two members of the board
under the act of the last regular ses-
sion of the Legislature to locate sew
eral new normal schools in the State,
is held to render the law imperative.
There has been much rivalry between
different towns in the designated dis
tricts for the location of these
schools, but all to no purpose under
this sudden turn of affairs. It is a
great pity that the Legislature is un.
able to get as firm a grasp on its
legitimate functions as the Supreme
Court has. The court was eminently
correct in its action.-Houston Post.
The Supreme Court is no doubt
well pleased that it can get this firm
grasp" upon its legitimate functions.
Few people are willing to voluntarily
act as Judge in a baby show, much
less decide between competing towns
for the location of State normal.

WILL BAILEY MAKE THE TRY'

They can all speak out in meeting
as often as they like, but if Joe Bailey
makes the race for the Senate, the
fight viii center all upon him. He is
going TO be the factor-Temple Mir
Tor.
There is no question but that 1t
would be Bailey against the field, and
we believe Bailey would win, for 1t is
acknowledged by nearly everyone
that Texas needs Bailey's services
in the Senate more than Bailey needs
the position. Thousands who never
voted for him before openly declare
their intention OF supporting him
should he become candidate
Hamilton Herald.
A most significant admission comes
from Golfers National Weekly, a
paper that has for years been one Of
Senator aBiey's most relentless enc
mics. 1t says the Senate needs Bailey.
That while 1t may have opposed him
in the past, it realizes now of what
inestimabe value his services were
to the Nation and that conditions de-
mand his return. Bailey is stronger
now than he ever was and If he de-
cides to go to the Senate, IL will in
deed be Bailey against the field, with
the odds favorable to the ex-senator.
-Denison Herald.
1t has been intimated by some one
that George Riddle announced for the
Senate in the belief that he is the
logical man to try conclusions with
Joe Bailey.-Waco imes-Herald.
