The Attorney General of Texas

An agreement has been reach-
ed by which the ICity of Galves-

The Wall Street Explosion.
The Wall Street horror seems
to have been the work of blood,
thirsty anarchists, and reminds
us again of the presence in this
country of dangerous elements
whose chief object in life is to
destroy government and its in-
stitutions aud replace them with
a reign of terror.
During the war the Federal
and State governments took far*
reaching precautions to suppress
these fiends of the torch and
bomb, but with the reactions of
the peace era the safeguards of
the wartime have been abandon-
ed, and we are again face to face
with the peril which so often
manifests itself in wanton des-
truction and murder.
We are reminded again that
eternal vigilance is the price of
liberty and civilization, that
enemies of both are forever con-
spiring and plotting in the pur-
lieus cf the cities, and that to
ignore them means to invite dis-
aster.
It will be a national calamity if
the men who perpetrated the
Wall Street outrage are permit-
ted to escape, but still greater
calamities will follow unless the
effort to run down these crimin
als is combined with a determi-
nation to find and to deport all
aliens of evil antecedents or con-
duct and, in the broader aspect
of the problem ’, to abate the
causes which led to unrest and
turbulence.—Houston Post.
“Expecting lower prices, the
public decreased their buying.
The retailer, therefore, was
forced to sell commodities at
sacrificejjprices, and ithe whole-
saler, in turn, was compelled to
accept cancellations and the re-
turn, merchandise and dispose of
stocks at figures below actual
cost. Manufacturers quickly
felt the shift of conditions? and,
without orders sufficient to keep
their plants running, have been
compelled to dispose j[of many
commodities at less thail pro-
duction cost.—Literary Digests

Nominee Harding’s Message.
“I have been chosen to lead in
the restoration of American rep-
resentative government. Extra-
ordinary as is the fact, it is none
the less a fact, that under a rule
in this country which labeled it-
self democracy, even the funda-
mental principles of the demo-
cratic party were forgotten and
abandoned and we have beheld a
real menace to the American re-
public in the centralization of
government and power* and in
the unwillingness of those who
have enjoyed extraordinary war
powers to relinquish them when
peace came.
