and yet a most unlucky jay who seldom has a cent. I often,
try to run him down, just to relieve his mind; but he goes lop-
ing through the town, a cloud of dust behind; I’d like to say
to him, “Oh, Hugh, forget the sum you owe; come, visit me
when day is through, as fh.the long ago. I miss you when the
daylight fails, and dusk is in the dell, I miss the good old beard-

The factories and mills;
He keeps the men at labor,
He helps his friend and neighbor,
The man who pays his bills.

good salesmen to Induce Texas offi-

He defends the appropriation for

the appropriations question:
I Representative W. C. Edwards of
Denton County is a member of the
committee on appropriations. Rep-
resentative Edwards does not take
kindly to tlie resolution adopted by
the Texas Bankers’ association or
chambers of commerce demanding
that the legislature cuj down its
appropriations to a point where
appropriations and the existing de-
ficiency will be taken care of with-
out additional tiyxntion. This law-
maker from penton who Is an edi-
tor and publisher when he is at

gentlemen ot t hte* chamber of coni-
niecce “W’Tur*1 shall reductions be
mads?’’ He tells them that there are
four big budgets Judiciary. *!♦-
I part mental.• eleemosynary and edu-

Judiciary is largely statutory in
that mo^t <»f the salaries are fixed
by statute, and connot be chang-
ed in an appropriation bill. He re-
inind^ them that the eleemosynary
budget provides for the support of
IM Institutions, including the con-
fedeTLte home, the confederate wo-
man’s home, the state orphans, the
home for dependent and neglected
