possibility of becoming a candidate
for lieutenant governor. Senator
Brachfield has not only’made a repu-

friends while serving in the legisla-

prove a formidable candidate against

intention being to offer lowef inter-
state rates from Louisiana ahd Ar-

given in those two slates to tap lines
owned or controlled by tlie same

proposition ha? been bitterly opposed
by'all the railroads in the state ex-
cept the Gulf. Colorado Ai Santa Fe.

in tlie controversy, although thought
to be one of the parties most inter-
ested in seeking the emergency rate.
The hearing developed that s«im<l tap
lines in Texas are enjoying a division
ot rates similar to that complained
of in Louisiana and Arkansas, but it
is claimed that the lumber interest

small It being impossible to con-

The Journal republishes, by re-
quest, the editorial published Sep-
tember 17. below:
In the death of E. H. Harriman
America loses one of ber greatest
men, and oue who was weeded. Men
like Harriman are benefactors to
commerce and mankind generally,
end are necessary in the upbuilding
of great nations. The world needs
such men as Harriman, H. H. Rog-
ers. James J. Hill, B. F. Yoakum,
K. P. Ripley and Phil Armour, and
w«tien one of them pasnas to the
great beyond, their place is difficult
to Hl) in full.
Men like those named above are
of more real benefit to the fellow-
men than a thousand war generals,
whom the world usually worships,
as above named men are planners
‘ of peace and prosperity and supply
employment for an army of indus-
trious workers of all kinds and are
indlspensible to the tillers of the
soil.
Such men build up a co'Atry or
nation. Harriman Showed his wis-
dom in the selection of his aides and
the Vast system of railroads organ-
ized by him will continue to flourish
under the guiding hand of R. S.
laovbtt. J. C. Stubbs anti Julius Krutt-
aahnlti. Lovett is a native of Texas
and Kuttschnitt was born In Louisi- j theaters, and it is said they are giv
ana. in Texas the Harriman prop-
erties .are well managed by Thorn-
yell Fay and W. G. Van Vleck. The
politician at times makes capital by
abusing men like those named above,
r» but the real men of affairs, and the
true friend of the toiling masses
know that men like Harriman and
others named above are real ser-
vants arid benefactors to the masses
nf the people, and not their enemy,
aw the politician would make them
believe. The Journ’a! joins in sor-
dow over Harriman’s untimely death.

lary. That is, Swett, who passes as
: one of the “truly culchawed Willies,"
and rigs himself as the swellest of
' the swells among the select 400,
makes a hit in social circles. In
1 spite of all high-sounding tempi

as men i$ concerned), it is a sad
truth that apparel, with a slick
tongue is generally the "whole

Well, Swett would get acquainted
with the "accomplished and beauti-
ful" young ladies, then get Invited
to "her” home. While there he would
"spot" her diamonds and other jew-
elry. Also, he would “pipe the lay
of the house.” Then, when slumber
sat heavily upon .tired eye'id-x, this
Willlerboy would return, and, in the
language of the pbet, would roam
“upstairs, dow-nstairs and through
my lady's chamber,” and he would,
in the low. vulgar language of hi*
craft, ’“loot the place.’’ This Is the
