Bad roads encoutage that which

that which should be done. They
lead “through the slough of des-

“III fares the land to hasten ills

One of the necessties for the fu-
ture growth of Texas lies in attract-

make their home among us. If
they are intelligent and patriotic,
and willing to work, it does not

need more industrial workers, and,
to obtain them we must, treut them

Free text books for the use of all
Texas school children within the
scholastic age, and attending any
of the public schools, are now being
thought of, and the question is
being agitated. There is no reason
why a system and law could not be
envolved and passed, under which
the use of free text books, under
curtain regulations, would liecome
possible. It is a large question,
but worthy of the best thought of
some of our brainy law-makers.
The big industrial addition of the*
San Antonio Express, published on
Friday, September 7th, was a hum-
mer. It is a veritable encyclopoetlia
of facts about San Antonio and
Southwest Texas, in fact about the
entire state. The enterprise of the
Express cannot be too highly recotn-
fiended, and the Herald takes pleas-
pe in joining its numerous eontem-
jaries in their just praise* of that
lication. Not only has the Ex-
provided an abundant fund of
Ration, but has furnished an
\ ami superior way of ad-
