Austin, Tax., Aprils—A week
ego it was stated in these dis-
patches that Governor CampMi
might appoint Hon. Thomas B.
Love, now commissioner of In-
surance and Banking, to the va-
cant place upon the railroad Coral
mission. It may now be said
that Bush appointment is not
only Ukely, but very probable.
It is not believed, however, that
rtbe appointment will .be mads
while the legislature is hue. un-
less there are evidence that the
asperities which have risen
over the bank guaranty bill and
Mr. Love’s activity in its be half;
have softened. A
the Senate lined up against the
aort of bill Mr. Love wanted,
and considerable bitterness has
grown out of the controversy, j
It is such that some believe the
the Senate might refuse to con-
firm the appointment of Mr.
Love. If, however, the gove* !
nor should deferthe appointment
until after the Legislature had i
finally adjourned.Mr. Love could
serve until he could have the
people pass upon his claims to
office.

Ksights Templar Easier Servioa.
All the churches of the city
attended, and took part in the
Knights Templar service at the
McKenzie Memorial Methodist
Church Sunday at eleven o’clock.
It was estimated that 800 per-
sons were present. The day,
except for high winds outside
was favorable to church going.
Splendid music was rendered by
choir and soloists. The ritu
alistic services of the order in
the presence of the large, cul-
tured,' and well dressed audience
were impressively beautiful.
The feature of the day how-
ever was the sermon by Rev. C.
C. McConnell of Wolf City. Mr.
McConnell spoke with special
reference to the spiritual side of
masonry, as brought out by the
symbolic teachings and ritu-
alistic work of the order.
It was an eloquent presenta-
tion both of masonry and of the
Christian religion.
No 'more beautiful, helpful
and elevating services were ever
held in Clarksville, than were
the Knight Templars Easter
services of last Sunday.
Letter Is Frank Misstb.
Clarksville Texas.
Dear Sir: Todd & Downing,
contractors and builders, Mor-
gan City, La. have painted
Devoe for 8 or 4 years. They
say it takes less gallons Devoe
than of any other paint they
have used. That means that a
job costs less with Devoe; not
only for paint, for labor as well,
They paint nothing else,
Devoe exclusively.
They have said nothing about
the comparative wear of Devoe
and others; oversight, may bej
perhaps too soon for that. But
Devoe is the strongest paint;
that’s why least gallons; boat
wear, same reason. Least cost
and longest time batween jobs.
Yours truly

Don’t Shoot tbs Editor.
Gen. Meeks’ argument in the
Cooper trial, in favor of shoot
ing the editor when no other
remedy for a grievance is
available, will bo applauded by
every scoundrel in the land who
has been exposed to scorn in the
public prints or is afraid that he
will be, says the St. Paul Dis-
patch. It is not the malicious
libel that spurs men to deeds of
violence. The lie will recoil
upon its author’s head. It is
the unimpeachable truth, uttered
upon justifiable occasion, that
moves the subject of it to frenzy
and murder.
Gen. Meeks is guilty of willful
misrepresentation in insinuat-
ing that the editor is a wholly
irresponsible being. On the
contrary, the editor is constantly
on trial before the bar of public
opinion. He is under a com
polling obligation to deal justly
with men and women or to de-
stroy his newspaper by forfeit-
ing public responsibility un-
equaled in almost any other
pursuit or profession. He dis-
charges a trusteeship for the
public and is held to the most
rigid accountability.

The activity of tbs women in
collecting end sending to Wash-
ington protests against the
hosiery end gloye schedules of
the Payne bill is bat e symptom
of ihe general feeling of the
consumers toward the outrageous
protection which n number of
manufacturers have enjoyed,
Recently, Mr. Wellman wrote
of the excessive cost of clothing,
in the United States, which be
attributed not to the higher
wages paid in America, but to
the excessive protection which
enables American manufacturersj
to exact extortionate sums for
their producte.
It is not denied nowadays that^
the wool tariff inserted in the!
Dingley law has produced a
tremendous effect upon the vast
clothing industry of America. {
Where before much good wool
was used in making of ready-to-
wear olothiog, taxed wool (treated
a vast shoddy industry, and we
And that the per capita con: j
sumption of wool is now far less
than is was under free . wool,1
with a tendency to decrease. J
Thus it is shown that the
wool industry has not benefited '
as the friends of the wool
growers anticipated when they j
inserted the woel duty in the
Dingley law.
Here in Texas, we find that
wool production is even less
under the tariff than in the days
of the Wilson-Gorman law. t
There is no doubt that under
present conditions, too great a
proportion of the earnings of
the people ara required to cloth?
them. This is not due to the
retailers, but to the manufac
turers, who are entirely re;
lieved of competition in 'apply-
ing the 90,000,000 people of the
country with clothe*.
The hosiery and glove tariff
is but a drop in the bucket.
Compared with the aggregate
of the excessive exactions of the
protective tarifi, it is nothing.
But the women have been shown
in two instances where they are
victimized by protection and
even if their protests are not
heard now, they will be heard
before many years, for when
they ascertain that they are out-
rageously exploited by almost
every schedule in the tariff law,
they are going to make a noise
that congress can not afford to
ignore.
Politicians w »ii I 6 e foolish t
delude themselves with the be-
lief that the women are not a
potent factor in politics when
once aroused. Their work In
the prohibition movement shows
what they can do, and they are
going to show in other directions
the more they are brought face
to face with the exactions which
our protective policy makes of
them.
