GOVERNMENT EXTRAVAGANCE.
Senator Bailey made a strong
fight against raising the president's
salary, and succeeded. The $25,-
000 traveling expenses allowed our
chief executive the Senator char-
acterized fas unconstitutional in
toto, andjquoted the constitution
to prove it.
So effective was this point that
the senate subsequently struck out
item for traveling expenses and
made the salary $75,000 and the
president to pay his own trayeling
expenses. So it remains practic-
ally the same.
It seems that $50,000 a year was
sufficient until Teddy asce nded the
throne. He not only gets his $50,-
000 a year; $25,000 traveling ex-
penses; $80,500 for the care and
repair of the White House and
$9,000 for flowers but fcbis barber
and Mrs. Roosevelt's social secre-
tary are paid by the people..
In regard to the $9,000 item a
year for flowers Senator Bailey
said: "That as long as there is a
poorhoase in America filled with
unfortunates I do not believe in
this kind of expenditure." Ha
does not think ^the people should
In an interprise of this kind the be taxed to buy $9,000 worth of
flowers for a man who gets $50,000
a year. Nor do we. Nor do wo
think his barber and his wife's so-
cial secretary should be paid ex-
merchants and farmers should
work hand in hand. A canning
factory can not exist without this
co-operation.
The merchants and farmers of
Lulinsr are goine right ahead with
the work of establish ioar a canning
factory at that place. Let Schul-
enburg haye one to taka care of
the fall truck crop.
If you are interested in the up-
building of your town;, if you are
interested in making your town a
ready market for all the trnck you
can raise, take a share of stock in
the proposed canning factory.

The pros are in greater number
in the 31st Legislature but they
hayen't as yet the required two-
thirds vote to submit the prohibi-
tionjquestion amendment, and it is
thought the pros are making ev-
ery effect to change enough yotea
to get the required number even
going to the extent of threatening
to block legislation. Well the
pros might do some good in that
way for we have teo much legisla-
tion already. The vote upon the
submission questionn will not take
place until Feb. 4th then we will
know one way or the other
tbeyjstand. Do something
relieve us of our suspence.
how
and
paid
travagant salaries by the people.
In answer to the argument that
presidents should be allowed suffi-
cient to support the dignity of the
office, Senator Bailey said Lincoln
had done so on half the salary now
paid the president, and that Grant,
for whom the salary was raised to
$50,000, had lived in ample style,
showing the sufficiency of the sum.
The senator scorned the neces-
sity of royal entertainments for the
diplomats and the idle milhonires
of Washington- His observation
was that the men who entertain-
ed the most are not the men who
do the public work the best. It
would accord better with sound
Americanism for public officials to
entertain on a simpler scale and
invite to their boards the great
and the upright, rather than in-
dulge in splended trappings and
extravagance for men who dress
like head waiters and ladies who
hardly dress at all.
NOTICE OF VALUE.

How to 6tf Rid if Both.
Gentlemen of the Legislature:
Cut down—or, better still, cut out
—appropriations for the mainten-
ance of the State Ranger force. The
idea of 8tate police is repugnant
fo eyery principle of our Stat * and
National Governments, and lodges
too a power in the hands of an lr-
reDosible Executsye. The peace
officers of the State are competent
to deal with all violations of the
law, and if not, they have timely
aid at hand from citizen who they
may summon as posses comitatus.
—Texas Republic.
They are competent, but do
they always inforce the law to
the letter? For instance: San
Antonio and New Braunfels were
openly violating the law and the of-
ficers fully competent, of course,
failed to do their duty andthe only
way they were made to oomply
with their oath of office was the
threat of having the State Rangers
take charge of affairs and the up-
holding,of their commission. Still
New Braunfels says she obeyed
the law volunteerly(?) not because
she was lorced. No, Bro. Mose
do not get huffy at the Rangers
because they were used to make
8. A. clese her saloons doors on
Sttnday and at 12 o'clock eyery
night. The Ranger force, while
there are always a few who over-
step their aothority, is almost m-
dispensible. They civilized Texas
and made it a grand old state in
whieh it is as safe to live as any
other part of the world,
Backache arfd kidney ache are

And you can't get rid of the

pretty sure to be in vigoro u

by a frequency of the kidney secre-
tions. Take it altogether, I was
in a miserable condition, and when
Doan's Kidney Pills were brought
to my attention I was led to try
them, I procured a box at Brey-
mann's drug store and through
their use the pain in my back was
ended and the headaches and other
kidney troubles became things of
the past.

If you have Eye. Ear, Nose or
Throat disease or deformities or
cancer of the face you can call on
Dr. Gordon Adams, specialist in
this line of practice and who has
15 years experience in this work
together with the very best school-
ing and hospital training the world
affords in this specialty.
He has a proven record of suc-
cess in the south, having cured
thousands who were sufferers with
granulated lids and ingrowing lash-
es, cataracts, pterigiums, overflow
of tears, drooping and deformed
lids, cross eyes, etc., etc. He has
straightened more than J1000 cross
eyes in Texas alone.
Ear, Nose and throat disease
and deformities treated according
to the latest and most approved
methods. Enlarged tonsils and
adenoids removed without pain.
When a man can prove a record
of having given most gratifying
results to thousands who talk as
these do and when more than 100
physicians who have operated with
him and testify as the following,
you then have unqueastionable
proof that you can be cured at
Schulenburg, Tex., if your case is
at all curable, and if your case is
not curable Dr. Adams will frank
ly tell you so, for he wastes no time
on hopless cases or guess work.

ton, Tex , says—73 years old,
Blind with cataract 10 years, Re-
stored to sight in 30 days by Dr
Gordon Adams
Mr. Simmons, Flatonia, Tex.,
says—I had pterigiums, ingrowing
lashes and was "almost blind for
years and Dr. Adams did wonder*
ful work for me.
Mr. Tom Peterson, merchant,
Halletsville, Tex., says—Dr, Adams

DIFFICULT CASE5 RECENTLY
CURED.
Senator D. A. Paulus, Hallets-
ville, Tex., says—"My daughter
was blind. We had to lead her ev-
erywhere. We took her to severs
specialists who failed to cure her
but Dr. Adams guaranteed a cure
and did cure her quickly. She now
sets to read. Dr. Adams did
much good for many other afflict-
ed people here."
Mr. Will Miller, Postmaster,
Halletsville, Tex., says—"Dr.
Adams is a blessing to any city or
country and few are as skilled as
he. He operated on my son's
throat, removing his tonsils and
adenoids successfully without pain,
and the boy is quite a different
child. He now enjoys good health.
Dr. Adams performed many opera-
tions here that proves him to be
second to none in his line.'!
Max Kahn, M. D. Druggist,
Halletsville, Tex., says—"I have
assisted Dr. Adams in more than
fifty operations and I know of no
one who excels him in his profes-
sion—in fact few if any equal him
as an oculist and aurist."
R. R. Smith, 225 Commerce
Street, San Antonio, Tex., say—
"Dr. Adams cured my daughter
after three oculists of San Antonio
and leading oculists of Austin had
failed. She was blind and we had
to lead her for months, yet Dr.
Adams cured her in ninety days.
M. T. Dunham, Cotulla, Texas,
is 70 years old; he was blind and
led had to office. Regained sight in
thirty days.
Rev. Pinkey Hawkins, Baptist
Minister, Belton, Texas, was blind

WOMAN.
It takes a hundred men to make
an encampment, but one woman
can make a home. I not only ad-
mire woman as the most beautiful
creature that was ever created, but
I reverence her as the redeeming
glory*of humanity, the sanctuary
of all the yirtues, the pledge of all
perfect qualities of heart and head.
It is not just nor right to lay the
sins of men at the feet of women.
It is because women are so much
better than men that their faults
are considered greater. A man's
desire is the foundation of hie
love, but a woman's desire is born
of her love. The one thing in
this world that is constant, the
one peak that arises above all
clouds, the one wiodow in which
the light forever burns, the one
star that darkness cannot quench
is woman's love. It rises to the
greatest height; it sinks to the
lowest depth, it forgives the most
injuries. It is perennial of life
and grows in eyery climate.
Neither coldneas nor neglect, bash-
ness nor cruelty, can extinguish it,
A woman's love is the|perfume of
the heart. This is the real love
that subdues the earth; the love
that has wrought all miracles of
art; that gives us music all the
way from the cradle song to the
grand closing symphony that
bears the soul away on wings of
fire. A love that is greater than
power, sweeter than life and
stronger than death.—Robert G.
Ingersoll.

men are this year entitled to use

REBEKA H INSTALLATION,
At a call meeting of Hermine
Rebekah Lodge No. 9, I. O. O. F.
Tuesday evening last, Mrs. Anna
B. Jordan,D.D. installed the follow-
ing offieers for the ensuring term:
Mrs. Max Schwartz, N. G.; Mrs.
John P. Thomas, V. G.; Mrs. B.
F. Johnson, Secretary and Mrs.
C. H. Rose, jjTreasurer. The fol-
lowing officers were then appointed
and duly installed*. Miss Emma
Merrem, Warden; Raymond Win-
free, Conductor; C. H. Rose,
Chaplin; O. B. Schwenke, I. G.;
S. T. Schaefer, O. G.; B. F. John-
son and John P. Thomas. Right
and Left Supporters to Noble
Grand; Miss Emma Cornslson and
Mrs. Robt. Whitten, Right and
Left Supportes to Vice Grand.
After the officers were declaied
installed by Grand Marshal, Ray-
mond Winfree and the lodge clos-
ed by the new Noble Grand, Mrs.
Max Schwartz, a delicious lunch
was enjoyed by all. The good
things to, eat were too numerous
to mention and it is needless to
say they were done justice to.
The Rebekahs are a jolly crowd
and it is a dead shot for blues to
attend their meetings,especially on
an occasion like >the above. The
lodge is m a flourishing condition
and growing all the time.
Fire sometimes originates in
mysterious ways. We think so
at least there is always a plain
cause for it. Last Sunday, which
was a warm, clear day, smoke was
seen to emerge from the corner -
show window of B. K. Yoeleker &
Son. It was evident that some-"
thing was burning. On close in*
vestigation it was found that the
sun's rays had caused the fire by
throwing their warm rays through
the window glass,and going square-
ly down upon several convex*
shaped glass paper weights that
were placed upon a stack of pap er
tablets. Luckily this kind of fire
originate only on a bright sunny
day, w hen it can best be detected
and put out,—N e w Braunfels
Herald.
And this on the Monday follow-
ing the first dry Sunday since 1845.
New Braunfels should see that
the apparatus of her fire depart-
ment is in good order.—Lockhart
Courier.
WAIL OF A PESSIMIST
The cow eats hay wiih her main
and she eats all night; as fine as
silk is her bill of fare when it
comes to milk, then she isn't there.
The hens loaf around all the sun*
ny morn, and pound by pound
they eat the corn; with their yel-
low legs they scratch and tear;
when it comes tD eggs they are not
there. The damsel plays on the
piano, or she spends her days
where her drees will show; though
many a dub may think her fair,
at preparing grub well, she isn't
there. The young man's don®

bets his raon on his skill at pool;
