L. M. Fouts, formerly presi-
dent of the Weatherford, Miner-
al Wells 4 Northwestern railroad,
ia projecting a line in the south

run from Galveston to Bay City
and on west. Galveston capital
is thought to be back of the
project.
Notwithstanding the coal strike
is ended and the miners are tak-
ing out the black diamonds by
the hundreds of tons daily, the
product is very »carce and the
price is out of reach of the poor
in cities. Unless nelieved there
will be much suffering in the
large cities this winter, and
doubtless many deaths from ex-
posure.
t If President Roosevelt strikes
out with the determination which
is his strongest characteristic to
crush the trusts he will have al-
most the solid populace at his
back. Of course organised cap-
ital will do everything possible
to crush nim, but the people will
go with him to the last ditch.
Count Boni de Castelane, the
husband of Anna Gould, was
throWTr'>ojit of his office as a
member of the French chamber
of deputies on account of alleged
fraud. The action aroused the
ire of the worthless count and
his rich wife and they have ap-
pealed the case back to the peo-
ple. Anna declares she will
spend her entire fortune trying
to vindicate the ‘‘honor" of her
husband. We admire her pluck
in sticking to the scoundrel, yet
if her energy and money was de-
voted to some worthy object,
how much more good could this
lady accomplish?
_ The Molineux case is oreating
a great deal of interest in the
whole country, and especially in
the east where the ciroumstances
are best known. It inspired a
pointed sermon last Sunday by
a noted New York divine, who
took oooaaion to appropriately
roast the prosecuting attorney
for xhe.manner in which he han-
dled a witness for the defense.
This person was a lady and be-
cause she said on the stand that
she had asked God in prayer
what to do with the knowledge
she had unwittingly seoured in
the case the lawyer ridiculed her.
The chance# are that Molineux
will be given his liberty. Yet
had he not been mixed up in the
matter more or less he never
would have got tangled up with
the law. Young Molineux
boasted that he was a man of
the world, had seen life in all its
phases. The preacher truly
says ‘‘the phase ‘a man of the
world’ often hides is a life thatia
pockmarked with evil deeds and
honeycombed with sensations.
Such a man is weak, however
strong he may think himself,
and is likely to go to pieces at any
time. ’ ’ We hope this celebrat-
ed case will teach Molineux, as
well as others, a good and use-
ful lesson; if they don’t want
trouble, they should shun it.
Startling But True.

List of Letters
The Fort Worth Register is
still building—on paper—the ex-
tension of the Weatherford, Min-
eral Wells A Northwestern. One
day the editor of this great paper
can see this road building into
Trinidad, the next day to 8anta
Fe and the next to Albuquerque.
This is all guess work on the
part of the Register. Even the
projectors of the road do not know
•where they will build. Nor do
they know positively whether or
not they will build at all. Will
the Register please give us facts
„ ajid less gussing?
President Roosevelt will clear-
ly outline his policy in his forth-
coming message to congress
Those who are on the inside say
it will be his purpose to fight the
trusts and put the tariff revision
matter into the keeping of a
commission appointed by con-
gress. This means that he wilt
cut loose from Wall street and
come out boldly as the champion
of the whole people. There is
trust but who wants to see these
growing evils controlled, and it
matters not to us whether it is
donejmder the sanction of a re-
publican or a democratic presi-
dent, just so the evil has its
wings clipped.
Someone has compiled the fol-
lowing ancient baseball statistics:
—The devil was the first coach-
er, says a retired baseball editor
He coached Eve when she stole
first. Adam stole second. When
Isaac met Rebecca at the well
she was walking with a pitcher.
Sampson struck out a good many
times when he beat the Philis-
tines. Moses made his first run
when he killed the Egyptian.
Cain made a base hit when he
slew Able. Abraham made a
sacrifice. The prodigal eon
made a home run. David was a
long distance thrower,and Moses
shut out the Egytians at the Red
sea.
Rev B M Taylor informs the
Index that he will begin a revi-

There will be regular services at

To the young man olerking in
a store, driving a delivery wagon
or "pulling a bell oord over old
Pete" fora bare living; to the
young lady fast wearing out her
tervous system teaching sohool
or $200 a year; to the girl who
sews, oooks, washes and irons,
this paper ventures a few sug-
gestions that may be the means
of getting you out of the orowd
of over-worked and under-paid
oilers. You are worth to the
busines. world simply what your
eduoatiQn has prepared you to
earn. The boy whose education
has fitted him for nothing bettfer
may expeot to oontinue to use a
spade and be bossed and sworn
at. The same is true of the girl
at the waBh tub. Hewers of
wood and drawers of water for
other people must work without
applause, grow old before their
time, and go down to their
graves unhonored, unwept and
unsung. "Hands that the rod
of empire might have swayed"
are today immersed up to their
elbows in dish water, and will
stay there unless trained to do
something of greater commercial
value. Any yound person who
save up $120 to $135 oan com-
plete a full business, shorthand
and typewriting course on this
amount if the right sohooL is
selectee. Let’s see what inoome
this $135 will pay. The average
farm hamd, clerk, ditoher, dish-
washer etc., gets say $25 a
month, and this is a big estimate.
The average business and short-
hand graduate of Tyler College
gets $70 a month i. 0. $45 a
month, or $540 a year more than
before taking the courses. At
6 per cent it takes $9000 to pro-
duce a yearly interest if $640.
In other words, $135 and 31-2
to 5 months time invested in
business, shorthand and type
writing adds $9000 to one’s
earning capacity or business
oapital. This capital is always
available. It constantly in
oreases in value, is never lost
in wild speculations or bank fail-
ures. It adds to one’s social
standing, happiness and useful-
ness id his dying day. You will
do well to write Tyler College
at Tyler, Texas for large illus-
trated catalogue, free. This is
the largest commercial and
shorthane sohool in tke south,
and is always glad to advise and
aid young people who want an
education.
