Gov. Hubbard and the Nicaragua Oanal.
We see in the Velasco World that
ex-Governor Hubbard recently de-
livered a very interesting lecture in
that town New Year’s eve, the sub-
ject matter of which is worthy of
more than a casual consideration by
the people of the South, and espe-
cially the people of Texas. The
governor made the broad assertion
that the opening of the great Nic-
aragua canal would guarantee to
the Southern cotton planters 2 cents
more a pound for their cotton. He
also stated that the Japanese gov-
ernment offered to guarantee a loan
of $50,000,ocx) in gold to the United
States if we would build this canal.
These people are forced to buy
American cotton through English
ports and to pay an enormous price
for it. If we had the Nicaragua
canal, the governor said, they would

Weakness is a jwedispoaition to disease.
Whether the weakness be local or gen-
eral, it is dangerous. Good healthy
