IncreasliiK the Tav Itutr
l Is unfortunate that so inny
people cannot dlsciias an economic
proposition without mixing person-
ality with It.
There nre many nbstrnrt thvorlei-
in government upon which sober
thought ought to be given free ex-
ercise aside from the interests of
men or parties.
In Hie matter of the lax rate in
Texas political capital Is sought
to be made out of the fact that taxes
must be higher than for few years
past.. The foundation for this con-
dition was laid at the lime that Tex
as collected the big fhie I'n.ni Hi"
Walers-I'lerce Oil Compim.1". I was
pointed out then Hint shout I that
money be applied tor temp.iiii-v re
dm-; ion of th" tax ran- it would soon

then that when siyh a raise should

It Is l em lllli". e(i that ll leuil.-
I .title wis 'im (' tlien to use that
money for improving the Slate insti-
tutiiins but they would not do It.
Fvery asylum In the stale could

dition. Stale Mcbools could have been e-
iiuipped to ntii'l Hie demands of
many years but the authorities said
Use ll to meet current xpenses Hlnl

done and bow many ir us realized
the IlKhleliinK of the liiirileli. Now
the rate must : back up. for Hie

of the Confederate Home at Austin
died .Monday.
Senator Tillman wept while the
clerk read his reasons for exonerat-
iiiK Loritner and it Is said that when
the vote of expulsion w .is announced
and LorirniT left his seat and went
to the cloak rooai a number of
holies in the naileries wept. It Is a
Kid thini; to expel a senator but Un-
people have become tired of seeing
that office debauched by men buy Inn
Senatorshlps and It was time to put
the stamp of approval on such prac-
tice. Let it si hope with Senator Till
man. that lu-imer will no hack to
Illinois and exert himself to purify
the politics of his State.

It is construction and material that
has won fame for the Bain Wagon.
Ordinary wagons will stand ordin-
ary usage but it takes the Bain to
stand extraordinary usage. This

We cannot make it too strong
when we tell you about the favor-
able results Bain wagons are giving.
It is not something cheaper you
want but something better. You
know the requirements of farm wa-
gons are many for such reasons a
wagon built for light running and
long life is what the farmer absolute
ly demands and such a wagon we
have to offer you in the Bain.
