ny dear brother, it will take

a long time to come. Will you
convey to tbe sons ot the dear
old Lone Star State, God bless
them, our thanks for their
h-gbiy appreciated contrfbu
tions and those to come and ac-
cept same lor yourself as well
for your efforts in our behalf.
Kindly excuse this method of
acknowledgment (the letter was
written in pencil.—Ed.) I am
writing in bed, having just
recovered from an operation
whereby my FEET WERE AM-
PUTATED. I am inclined to
be optimistic, however, and
when I consider tbe great flow
ot relief that the great heart of
the American nation is pounqg
into tbe desolate metropolis of
the coast, I leel that my hum-
ble efforts to alleviate suffering
is not in vain and that this is a
pretty good old world to livi
in. Addmg cordial good wishes,

From TMsdayta Dally.
Tbe grand jury at Beaumont
has begun an investigation of
the charges made by John
Bnfbcks that tbe newspapers
in Southeast Texas bad been
bribed to support S. B. Cooper
for congress: As bribery of
newspapers is a criminal offense
under tbe Texas statutes this
is a matter that rightfully
comes under tbe jurisdiction ol
tbe grand !ury.

people who are thus held up
openly every day denied even
tbe poor privilege of a brief
mention of their tariff penalties

State it the oilier' way: If it fa

tary Taft and President Roose-
velt moved to refer this one
remote incident, less burden-

of tbe extra loads saddled upon
individuals, to Congress for ad-
justment? It It is deemed pro-
ier for Congress to savt us

cast-, how much more necessary,
even as a help to the weak,
that Congress should relieve
the individual who is held up in
the same way? It it is not
right for the rich Government

it be right to compel the people

Southeast Texas is vitally intei
ested in.
Nature has bountifully re-
dowed Orange county with re-
sources, which, if developed,
would make this one of the ban-
ner counties of the state, but,
unfortunately, owners of prop
erty most susceptible to rapid
and profitable development,
cannot be induced to part with
it at a reasonable price, thus
making the work of inducing
immigration and settling the
country doubly difficult.

Leaders ot this paper will re-
member a story published some
time ago about a minister at
Orange being interested in a
great estate in New York valu
td at $4000,000,000, and that he
had been advised bv tbe attor-
ney in charge of the claim that
he had been offered a settlement
a.t $2115,000,000. Another chap
ter has been added to tbestory,
as evidenced by the following
dispath:
Dallas, Tex., May 19.—Joseph
T. (JowaL, who claims with
others to have heirship rights
to several hundred million dol-
lars’wnrth of property in New
York City, including part of
Central Park, was arrested to
night dn an affidavit made be
'ore United States District At
torney Atwell, by the Rev. W.
T. Whitley of Temple, Texas,
in charging Cowan with fraudu-
lent use of the mails in promot-
ing his alleged claim and get-
ting money on it. He is accus-
ed ot representing that J.
Pierpoint Morgan and other
millionaires are ready to pur-
chase the rights of claimants
and pay lor them *285,000,000.
Cowan is in custody ot a United
States marshal and at this
hour is trying to make a $1000
bond.
The weather clerk will please]
take notice that we have not
had enough rain in this county
and unless he pays some atten
tion to this part of his baili-
wick, people are going to suffer

Customs and environments
have an allpowerful influence
in shaping the general charac-
ter ot the people. This is de-
monstrated by the manner in

With Kellie and his cannon as- (
sured, we can confidently state
that our celebration will be a
grand success.
A factory at Orange for the
manufacture of concrete blocks,

a paying investment. There is

Cowan is the attorney who
has had charge of the claim
and it would s^em from the
above that he has been playing
a game and bleeding the other
hejrs to the estate, among them
being the minister at Orange
and his family.

Taft has announced that he
will buy supplies tor the Pana-

that he will not pay the pirati-

the special interests to Itbe
consumers of this country, il he
can buy cheaper in foreign
markets. Tbe Canal ^ommis
sion does not need to pay United
States duties on imports into
Panama. This is merely sane
business policy- It displeases
the trusts of this ^ountry very
much, of course, but it is better
to offend the trusts than to pay
out more of the people’s money
than is necessary to secure the
supplies needed. Yet the
United States Government, by
establishing and maintaining
the high tariff system, every
day and all the time and all
along the line discriminates

supported by the state, but
since the separation the salar

pensions ranging from $90' to

course these sums are not at ail

the priests and the result is
that a great many ot them are

appealed to tbe people to sup-

not take kindly to'the idea of
going down into their pockets
for this expense to which they
have not been accustomed.
Then it appears that while tbe
priests were supported by tbe
government they became some-
what dictatorial and more or
less arrogant toward their
flocks, and in consequence the
people are not kindly disposed
towards this new and unusual
