Kohlsaat believes this .country
°ne the states are a brotherhood
Hence, his enterprise in sending the
most famous newspai>er correspond-
ent since the days of Bayard Tay-
lor and Gath , to Texas-to give the
hundreds of thousands of readers
of his great journal the facts about
the Lone Star state. The Journal
trusts the entire press of Texas will
take up this matter and herald it
far and wide, so that evorv facility
may he placed at Hie disposal of
Mr. Curtis for gaining exact knowl-
edge and salient facts when he
comes. Mr. Curtis haR just return-
ed from a trip to Germany and
other Continental s'atos for his
great paper, and Texas may
fee! a pride in the fact that Mr
Kohlsaat has seen the importance
or placing Texas in the Battle list as
the German Empire regarding Its
news feature to his readers. We
unhesitatingly say that never be-
fore has Texas had such an oppor-
tunity to make herself known. The
Journal is also glad to be able to
be the first paper in Texas to im-
part this news item in advance of
its announcement even in the Rec-
ord-Herald. -and thus let our people
know of the great opportunity of-
fered.
And, too, Elberl Hubbard will be
here next month to write matter on

being cast in pleasant places. Let
us welcome these great writers, who
have the ears and minds of the big
thinkers of the world.
DEM04HATS I'UR ICK< IPIUM'ITY.
It needed no son of a prophet to
predict that the democrat of the
house of Representative^ would per-
mit no narrow considerations of
party to withhold their su|>port of
the reciprocity policy of a republi-
can president. The well-nigh unani-
mous resolve of the caucus to aid
(he passage of the agreement with
Canada is in accord with the sentl:
ments of the national democracy
This action secures the adoption of
tbe agreement, so far as the house
is concerned. In the senate condi-
tions are net so favorable, /because
of its large nutpber of reactionaries;
but even there the possibility is
not excluded of adopting the agree-
ment in this session . with the aid
of the democratic minority.
In fact, the republicans of the sen-
ate are placed in such a predica-
ment that they have no alternative
to ratifying the Canadian agreement
between this and March 4. Whether
they reject the agreement outright or
obstruct its passage, they will con-
front an extra session of the next
congress, in which the democrats
will be in an overwhelming majority
in the house and the democrats and
progressive republicans in control of
well tbe senate. Then there will bi no
question of the early passage of the
agreement WITH Canada, not only/
but of immediate revision of the

IT the Williams bill to redistrict
Texas’ shall finally pass and become
a law Grayson will be in the ninth
congressional district with Collin,
Cooke. Denton, Wise and Montague.
In the new district there are said
to be two men who may enter the
contest against Randell, Hill Of
Denton and Cofer of Cook.
Many politicians are no doubt ly-
ing awake at night formulating their
lilaiis to run for congress next year.
Men who have never been congress-
men and would like to experience
Ihe emotions that accompay the an-
nouncement of an election. in the
eighteen districts, which will em-
brace quite a differed! territory from
present, lines, there will he ficrc*
contests.
That Texas is truly advancing into
an unprecedented era of prosperity
and commercial development is evi-
dent from the large number of new
corporations chartered by the stafe
department during the past several
weeks, pr since the advent of the
new administration. These new' con-
cerns have been varied and a large
number have been for industrial
enterprises.
There lias been on an average of
twenty new charters filed daily in
the state department witli an aver-
age capital stock of $30,0 00 and
there does not seem to be an end in
sight. Chief Clerk D. A. Gregg of
the department, who lias bqen con-
nected with the secretary of state's
department for the past several years
says he has never seen so many.new
corporations formed as are now be-
ing chartered. j
New lumber companies, manufac-
turing enterprises, new steam laun-
dries, oil and gas companies, and
last, but not. least, new state banks
are being chartered. There have
been over th'irty new state banks
chartereu during the past six weeks
most of which call for the estab-
lishment of banks in the smaller cit-
ies and towns of Yhe state. Aew
mercantile companies are being es-
tablished in the smaller towns,
which shows the development of
these points.
Besides the charters that have
been filed there, there have been
nearly 100 amendments to charters,
and most of these amendments pro-
vided for increases in capital stock.
Many state banks have doubled their
capital stock, which demonstrates
that they are on a sound financial
basis and that business is good.
Austin Statesman.
worst schedules of the tariff Hence,
the reactionaries of the senate can
render no «e* vice to the cause they
represent by obstructing the agree-
ment in this congress. But by
adopting it they may avert what
they and the trusts dread more In
an -extra session.
WHat enhances the predicament of
the—reactionaries in congress Ts The
fact, of which they as well a§ the
democrats do not fail to take cogni-
zance, that President Taft has
grown immensely in popularity and
public confidence since the last No-
vember election. His courageous de-
parture from party precedent in
nominating democrats for the su-
preme court lias won him the good
will of citizens of every political
creed. Following this, his defiance
of protectionist tradition in negotia-
ting the • agreement for reciprocal
freedom of trade with Canada in
the interest of the whole people of
the country has immensely increas-
ed the public confidence in his states-
manship. The reactionaries of the
senate, therefore, can not oppose the
president and his policy without
making doubly sure their own po-
litical decapitation as soon as they
fall into the hands of the public ex-
ecutioner. As many of them have no
convictions on the question of the
tariff, but have only employed it as
a means of obtaining power and
spoils they will shed no tears when
personal interest beckons them to
follow the president in his new de-
parture.
On the other hand, the democrats
would have been utterly wanting in
fidelity to their own principles and
policy had they rejected this reci-
procity agreement on the ground
that it wants their party initiative.
They have taken their good and the
good of the country, where they have
so unexpectedly found it. By this lib-
eral and wise action they have great-
ly increased public/confidence in the
capacity of the democracy to solve
the political problems that will con-
front them when they come again
into -Cull possession of political pow-
er.—Philadelphia Record.

NKWPAPHR REVENUES.
A newspaper has two legitimate
sources of revenue, to wit: its sub-
scription list and its advertising pat-
ronage. The first is governed almost
altogether by the news it furnishes
and the character it sustains. The
paper’s size is determined by the
amount of advertising it gets. The
man who advertises is not rnbved
thereto by benevolence; lie wants
full value for his money. Nor will
the advertiser take two pages when
one will answer his every purpose.
To print a 16-page paper on 8-page
business is to face certain bank-
ruptcy- -unless of course, the paper
is willing to sell its influence. But
even here there is risk,- for the read-
ing public lias a discriminating sense
and will refuse to support a paper
whose opinions are believed to be
for sale. Concealment may obtain for
a season but eventually the true
character will assert itself and one
by one the paper's patrons fall away
and it goes down with a crash.

Everybody in sympathy with the
changes contemplated to beautify
tbe public square look witli approv-
ing eye on every strode now actually
made to that end. Day by day the
place looks better and it will not
be many wfeks until the lawn will
be good to look upon and really in-
viting to tbe sojourner in our
midst and ourselves as well.
Saturday, the 251(1, there will be
a mass meeting at the court house
of those who believe in and want
statewide prohibition. Every com-
munity in Grayson county should
send delegates, or every man who is
in accord with the movement and
wants to do what he can to carry
the amendment should be present
and have a part in the deliberations
of tbe hour.
The house lias passed the Cana-
dian recoproclty measure by an ov-
erwhelming vote and the democrats
helped to do it. Such men as Dal-
zell of Pennsylvania, a high-tariff
veteran, was dazed and dazzled at
the apoatacy of the progressive re
publicans and laments the beginning
of what he terms free trade. Champ
Clark said Dalzell told a truth when
he said It was unrepublican. It is
the pathway to a reduction of the
tariff which the next congress will
attend to with alacrity.

Mine. Marcella Sembrich, the fa-
mous singer, was bdrn in Lenibarg,
Galicia, Feb. 1 5, 1 858. Her maiden
name was Praxede Marcelline Pros-
chansky. Her mother's maiden name
w*hs Sembrich, which she afterward
adopted. Her early musical instruc-
tion was received from her father,
who was a pianist and violinist.
At the age of 18 she’ went from Po-
land to Vienna to complete her edu-
cation as a pianist. There she met
the famous teacher, Julius Epstein,
who, hearing her sing, persuaded her
to abandon instrumental music and
devote herself to the culture of her
voice. Before she was 20 she made
her debut at the Athens Opera
House. Her success thereafter was
never for a moment in doubt. In
1883 she took the London pub'ic by
storm and a short time later she
made her American dabut at the
Metropolitan Opera House in Now
York.

To Grayson County Odd fellows
Bretheren:
Onjhe 26th day of next April we
are going to have one of the real
Odd Fellows days at Woodlake, mid
way between Sherman and Denison
We will meet that day and celebrate
the 92nd anniversary of Odd Fellow-
ship. There are 16 lodges in the
county and we want each lodge rep-
resented there that day, and we want
each lodge to turn out in as full
force as |H>ssible. Bring those bas
kets lull of the good things to eat
bring your wives. bring your
smiles and sunbeams with von. Old
maids are expected to bring a bas-
ket also and bring enough to save
the life of some old dying bachelor
(that is dying for love.) And get
Him to partake of the good things
to eat with a real jolly good old
maid; some men j»ist have to be
reached through trfeir appetites, so
let's not miss any of them. We want
to make this the best meeting that
the county lodges have ever had
There is no use for us to halfway
do tilts,____Let's-all-get down to the
real business proposition and we
will have a good time out there. We
don't, want to see any narrow work
done this year, as when an Odd Eel
low does little things he ceases to
be an Odd Fellow. The man who
has the real Odd Fellow heart would
not exchange his fraternal title for
all the Star and Garter degrees in
all of Europe. Odd Fellowship
touches something and means some-
thing. Let's all make our arrange-
ments to pass the day at Wioodlake
without anything on our minds but
the uplifting of our friends. The
higher we lift our friends the high-
er we will lift ourselves.
There will be a number of good
speeches that day and arrangements
will be made to pass the entire day
at Woodlake and have the degree
work exemplified at night in Sher-
man or Denison. We will have the
program for the day sent to all lodg-
es before the date of the meeting
Sickness is the only excuse that will
be accepted for your absence April
2fith.
1 want each Odd Fellow in the
county to feel like this meeting is
his own, and anything left out that
ought to be included in the day's
work is due partly to his individ-
ual neglect, it is not for the emula-
tions of men that we are coming to-
gether but for the worship of the
principles of our order. Our prin-
ciples are not made with hands, but
are from our Heaven Father.
Yours fraternally.

Sherman, Texas, says: “Doan’s Kid-
ney Pills are the best kidney remedy
I ever tried. They made me feel like
a different man after I had suffered
for years from kidney complaint.
During that time my back ached se-
verely and often pains extended
from my hips into my limbs. I coulu
not rest well and upon arising in
the morning, 1 was tired and unre-
freshed. The kidney secretions were
irregular in passage and annoyed
me greatly. Doan’s Kidney Pills,
procured from The Craycroft-Stins-on
Drug Co., entirely disposed of these
troubles and improved my health.”
