It la reported that the governor of
Pennsylvania is about to accept the
presidency of the National Baseball
League at a salary of $25000 a year.
Nearly all governors have their eyes
fixed on the presidency. This presi-
dential job is right at hand has been
tendered and all lie has to do is to say
"yes" while the presidency of the
United States is "over the bills and
far away."
Governor Colquitt In his speech at
the Cuero Turkey Trot referred to
the president's "vasclllatlng policy"
toward Mexico. If our governor bad
the last word in the matter he would
no doubt smash the whole thing with
a large and well developed veto.
Huerta has asked the new Mexican
Congress for an endorsement of his
course. President Wilson thinks if
he gets it he will resign. We think If
he gets it it will put a few more
Joints of steel In his backbone.
Some people had rather spend three
hours on the road to town and three
hours back home and pull a pair of
mules to death every year than to
spend a dollar and fifteen cents a
year in taxes for good roads.
POINTED PARAGRAPHS
ROBERTSON LAW GOOD ONE.
The charge that the Robertson fire
Insurance law is responsible for the
high rate of interest being charged for ;
farm loans is just another attempt to
pull the wool over the eyes of the Tex-
as voters long enough to have them
repeal this law by odds the best for
Texas of any law enacted since the
days of James S. Hogg. No more Is
being charged for farm loans now than
waa the case before the Robertson law
was enacted. This law does not for-
bid outside insurance companies loan-
ing their money in Texas but it does
require that foreign Insurance com-
panies invest a certain percentage of
their Texas business in Texas securi-
ties. That's the why for this "howl"
or "demand" for the repeal of this
splendid law and any candidate for
office who favors its repeal should be
snowed under. From the Wichita
Daily Times.
An exchange notes that Colonel Cole
Youncer. ex-train robber is on a lec
turing tour of the country. Colonel
Cole Is the only man hlHtory has yet
recorded who had the nerve to rob
our parents at the point of a gun and
afterwards charge us a dollar to hear
him tell how he put it over them. It
gives us a suffocating desire to wcci)
when we think that reHouroeful talent
like his was entombed in a peniten-
tiary for a quarter of a century.
Houston. Post.
' Admiral Fletcher chief In command
of the United States naval forces at
Vera Cruz has been ordered to pro
tect foreign Interests In that locality
and is left free to employ his own
methods. He can hardly offer much
protection unless he lands marines
and if he follows this course Mexico
will no doubt resent It. We may be
closer to stirring and exciting times
than we think.
We like Spring all right but we
want it along about March April and
May. A breath from the North would
be welcome.
At the present rate the paving of
- Main street will have to be postponed
again next fall to keep from interfer-
ing with the movement of cotton.
It's a poor joke that humiliates
others.
A man who Is satisfied with himself
does not want much..An auctioneer cries because he is
making an honest living.
Some people use pooor material
when they make un their minds.
The pension bureau has more draw-
ers than any other piece of furniture.
It la hard to appreciate good advice
that fails to coincide with our desires.
ROOSEVELT'S PLATFORM.
Roosevelt made a speech at Buenos
Ayres outlining the policy of the pro-
gressives. He said: "We propose to
make the process of constitutional
amendment far easier speedier and
simpler than at present.
"We wish to make the people the
supreme aribters between their serv-
ants the courts and the legislature
when the court and the legislature
differ as to the proper interpreta
tion of the constitution which the
Deonle made.
"We know that it Is folly to try to
make the fool the equal of the wise
man. but we intend to control greed
and cunning and brutality In high
places Just as we control greed and
rimntne and brutality in low places.
"We Intend to provide for the
mother whose husband the bread
winner has died.
"We intend to protect the right of
children to their childhood.
"From the men and women who
u-nrV hard with clean hands we In
tend to try to lift the burden of
haunting fear of an old age of un-
deserved penury and misery.
We intend thnt machinery shall

HART SCHAFFNER & MARX CLOTHES
INYWHERE you go where you see a group of well-dressed folks you'll
H probably see several Hart Schaffner & Marx overcoats; and they're
not "all alike" either.
Variety of models lots of different new things and all good - that
describes our overcoat stock. For the older and more conservative dresser
we have the quieter types dignified and dressy. For the young men who
seek the snappy ultra models extreme styles we have plenty of the latest
things.
Glad to show you any of them; overcoats $15 to $27.50

be the handmaiden and not the mis-
tress of humanity.
"We intend to make the govern-
ment a most potent Instrument In
working for the uplifting of mankind.
"The first essential to settle is
who shall speak with authority. In
democracies our answer la the peo-
ple. This necessarily means the ma-
jority of the people. Majorities change
however. The shifting of a small per-
centage of voteB may and as a matter
of fact continually does reverse the
position of majority and minority in
almost all democracies.
"It is therefore essential to secure
forms of government under which
two nurposes snan do
"First the people shall have am-
ple opportunity deliberately to make
up their minds so that the course of
action decided upon will not be due
merely to whim.
"Second.nten once the people have
thus dellbertft ffujade up their minds
their decision must bo1 rendered really
and not nomilaUv.f'.k(tive. and this
without undue delay.
'The people should have ample time
to think over a matter before coming
to a definite decision. Once they have
reached their decision their action
should be real and effective and their
power complete.
"Sham pretense hypocrisy are
public vices everywhere but nowhere
are they destructive as in a democ-
racy. To make believe to give a man
a power or a right and yet not really
give it to him trains him to be a bad
uir hoiniesa tn assert his own
right and prompt to do wrong to
others.
"In my own country we are grow-
ing more and more to believe that the
only safe rule in a democracy is to
give the people themselves the right
... jniihsrotlnn tn decide finally
on every subject which they deem or
vital imiiruuu-e. . i
Judges alike must be In very fact the
servants of the pople.
"The people nust have the right
to' make and unm.ike these public ser
vants in order to hold them strictly
accountable for their stewardship.
They must also have the right on their
own Initiative to pass upon iaw
which the legislature has passed or
n.kuk u h.. fofiiHAd tn nasa. if the
legislature does not correctly repre
sent them.
Tinotiv iha neonlfl must not sur
render to the judiciary any more than
to the executive or legislative
branches of the government the final
decision as to wnai laws mej "
be permitted to have.
"In the United States the . courts
have gradually assumed certain pow-
ers which are purley political. These
powers are in no sense judicial. They
are not such as courts in European
countries exercise.
nr... .nUni u tlmt the court
shall continue to have the right to
declare a given law or the legislature
unconstitutional; but that In such
case the people shall have the right
hy expeditious process after taking
time for deliberation but without any
Improper or execesslve delay to say
whether the legislature or me court
shall be held best to have Interpreted
their wises."
I am prepared to trim
trees and level houses;
also to do your painting.
