'be city wets well governed and the haws were
enforced without fear or favor Chicago would
need so one to sing her praises for her."
Nobody North or South can truthfully bring
any such accusation against a Southern com-
munity. The Post does not rejoice that Chicago
is so bad nor does It find satisfaction to the re-
flection that the South can boast a loftier moral
tone and a tinner respect for the law than Chi-
cago can. Thore are many detects in the South
which ought to be remedied and which mutt be
remedied but we are striving to apply the cor-
rectives. The Post merely advises Its Chicago
contemporary to hammer away at the evil at
home and by the time Chicago civilisation sp-
proilmates perfection old Texss will be tonnd
sprouting angelic pinions.
TOO MUCH SIXSHOOTER.
The Post sincerely hopes that the legislature
at the approaching session will pass stringent
Isws to suppress the sixshooter habit in Texas.
It is quite apparent that all existing laws are
totally inadequate to prevent pistol-toting. It
would be as unmixed blessing If every sixshooter
la the State were sunk in the gulf and laws
were enacted to prevent the sale of them within
the State limits.
Texas has outgrown the sixshooter. It hss
also suffered enough because of its unrestricted
use. The Poet does not assume to say Just whst
measures are necessary to suppress It but If the
law can regulate the sale ot poisons. It ought to
be equal to regulating the sale ot alxthooters.
The sale ot poisons wss made the snbject ot
legislation because some unfortunate people he-
came addicted to the use of drugs while others
in moments of despondency purchased with sui-
cidal intent The sixshooter has found In Texas
many more victims than all poisons combined
and unwilling victims at that
It seems to The Post however that If laws
are passed regulating the sale of such weapons
or preventing their sale altogether much good
will be accomplished. The question Is of great
importance to Texss. Her good name ss well
ss the lives of people demand that something be
done to stop the almost Indiscriminate use ot
the gun.
Men are going to have quarrels but this thing
of whipping out a gun and pumping lead Into
somebody very time a difficulty arises ts as un-
necessary as It Is uncivilised.

Strange Indeed was that negro riot In the
office of the city clerk of Greenwood Ohio the
other day. In the rush for msrrlsge licenses
two dusky brides-elect were trampled under foot
four prospective grooms were clubbed Into In-
sensibility and one wss shot through the hand.
It seems that the mayor of the town dis-
pleased with the social conditions prevailing
among the !00 negro adults of the town gave
orders that all of them should marry and settle
down or would be compelled to leave town with-
in twelve hours. This caused the rush tor the
marriage licenses and the riot grew out ot the
anxiety of the negroes to obtain the essential
permits. Over 100 weddings were pulled off
within a few sours.
The following dsy. s police Investigation wss
msde and every colored gentleman wss re-
quired to show a bride or buy a railroad ticket
and likewise every "colored lady" was compelled
to produce s husband or "back to Kentucky."
The development ot negro civilization In the
North presents many amusing phases at times
but nothing is recalled that bests this Green-
wood eolsode. Compulsory msrrlsge. or mar
riage ss s prerequisite for residence In an Ohio
community will probably strike most Bouthern
negroes as extreme especially when the re-
auirement is Imposed only spoa negroes.
But they hsve queer ways of doing things In
Ohio. The Post reserves Its Judgment upon the
proceeding until it can hear from Boston. Cer-
tainly compulsory msrrlsge it persisted In must

"I SAW THE INTERVIEW In the Maa

celebrated Denver convention of the Trav-

It with considerable Interest" said S. A.
Brown who for twenty years wss a trav-

when he embarked In the Insurance busi-
ness. Mr. Brown wss always a prominent
figure In Travelers' Protective Assoclstlon
circles and at the time of the Denver
convention In ISM be waa president of the
Texas division.
"My recollection of the tllver rallroal

Harby s. In that 1 think the pass wss Is-

Mr. Brown. "As I recall the sliver certlfl-

There ought to be some ef the passes left

"THOSE LITTLE FELLOWS assy
wfilp th Russians but 1 don't think they
could ever whip our people" said James
M. Gibson the attorney yesterday. re-
ferring to a little Jap as he passed near
us on the street.
'In the first place th Russian ts
oppressed and made to feel that he is
a slave by his own government and It
la utterly Imposatbl to suppose that such
people will make good soldiers. The
continued victories of the Japanese are
also further accounted for by the fact
thst many of the Japanese officers havs
been educated at American military and
naval schools and their method of fight-
ing Is after the American plan. Betides
you know there are a number of Amer-
ican officers with the Japanese army
and navy tent there by our government
to watch the war. and while of course
they are not supposed to take a hand
you can just bet that they are giving
ad vie and pointers constantly to th
Jap. That's only human nature to help
the man who wlna your tympathy from
Sheer tore of dolly oompanlonshln.
"No. sir the Mttle Japs eould never
Whip this country. The best type of
the American soldier Is the best soldier
in the world. It takes something more
han th mere knowleda of military
actios to make a soldier and that 'some-
thing more' la one of th Ingredients ot
the composition of th average American
ciusew.

MR. GEO ROE T. WILLIAMS special
agent of th agricultural department un-
der Dr. Knapp la In the city tor the
purpose of compiling his report of -tha
results of the co-operative experimental
(arms under his Jurisdiction
Mr. Williams has charge of the terri-
tory along the Taxes sad New Orleans
railway from Houston to Dallas. Be
has had cultivated under his supervision
MM acres In farms ot from one to twenty-
five acres.
"The results of these experimental
farms show" said Mr. Williams "that
we can grow cotton In spite ol the boll
Weevil with the exception of about sis
of these little farms the yield on aU at
them hat been from one-half to on
bale of cotton per acre.
Therefore I think 1 am warranted in
saying that the experiments have been
lucceeiful. They show that cotton must
be matured by' July It which la simply
ahead ot the appearance of the boll
weevil. My report which will lie pub-
lished soon by the department of agricul-
ture will contain a great deal of de-
tailed Information of value and Interest
to the farmers as to the culture of cotton
so as to mature the crop by July ."

Robert T. Oallagher. building Inspector.

prospects for a revival of the building
boom are excellent In (act I know ot
a number of buildings of large propor-
tions thst sre now In contemplation and

presiding slder; Sulphur Springs station
closed the arxument for the State in
which he contended that courts had held
In the Roberts Neely and other cases
that such testimony was not admls-
ssble. He also construed ss he under-
stood It the decision In the Knight case
from California aa reported In the Forty-
third Pacific reports and. which had been
cited by the defendant's counsel yester-
day and contended that It was not an
authority In support of the defendant's
contention In this case.
At the close ot Mr. Bee's argument
Judge Dwyer overruled the Objection of
the State and held the testimony to be
admlssable to a certain extent tor a cer-
tain purpose only.
Officer Oarvrn. to whose testimony the
Btate had objected then took the stand.
The Jury was brought In and the wit-
ness proceeded to testify. His testi-
mony was to the effect thst he had found
the prosecutrix prior to the sllege of-
fense by Emerson nt a lata hrur at
night at a beer garden and th it she
had made certain statements to him at
the time. At the conclusion of Gar-
van's testimony Ed Dlgnowltty waa re-
called by the defenae. He explained
some errors In his testimony yesterday
owing to his defective memory as to
dates. His testimony this morning wa
that he and defendant left the city on
May last for Vulsldami. Mexico. Th
witness returned on the th. but left th
defendant there. About a week after-
ward he saw Emerson here In San An-
tonio. The offense for which Emerson Is on
trial is aliened to have been committed
on the night of the 16th of May laat
nnd Dlgnowttty's testimony was Intro-
duced for the purpose ot establishing an
alibi.
