THE LIGHT.
* --------------
Senator Jonathan -Prentiss Dolliver,
from his place in the senate chamber,
has just given us a very complete com-
posite picture of the republican party.
Mr. Dolliver is to be complimented up-
on his gameness equally as much as
upon the clarity of his vision, and it to
. a matter of some delight to demo-
crats to know that here is one re-
publican of standing and position who
can see his own party as others see

Senator Dolliver to no insubordinate

years he was associated with the or-
ganisation in the house of representa-
tives, and for, ten years has represent-
ed the great state of Iowa in the Unit-
ed States senate. He to a man of
powerful phyaique, and so far in life

The opinions of Wichita Falls and
her people as being expressed by the
newspapers published in towne along
the route of the Wichita Faito & North-
western are very different to what they
were a few weeks ago, and it is hard-
ly necessary to state that Wichita Falla
duly appreciates this change of opin
ion. She just wanted to be given a
fair chance to show these people what
she could do for visitors while in our
midst, and from the tone of the press,
there was not one "kicker" or “knock
er” in the entire bunch of Ave hun-
dred who were the guests of the Wich-
ita Falls Chamber of Commerce on the
38th. They are always welcome to
Wichita Falls, and this they now most
thoroughly understand. After doing
everything to be thought of for their
entertainment and amusement, the fes-
tivitiee of the day were concluded with
a badger Aght, and, although given
every opportunity to furnish the
“hero" for the occasion, our Oklahoma

devolved upon one of our citizens V

and the visitors cheered him loud and

“Democrats celebrate the birthday of
the republic today under more favor-
able auspices thia year than at any
time since 1893.
“Republican factionists are at each
other's throats in the house of repre-
sentatives in the senate and through-
out the land. More power to their

“I bring to you the glad tidings of
great joy that the democrats in the
house of representatives have laid
aside the weight which for years did
so easily beset,us, that of Aghting each
other, and recently have presented a
solid and united front to the common
enemy. We are no longer a feeble,
wrangling, querulous, dispirited body,
but a courageous, vigilant, virile, hope-
ful, militant band, not only ready,
but eager for the fray.

Holding a position of great trust, no
one would expect Mr. Dolliver to leave
the party responsible for the condition
he describes, but there is no reason
why the people should linger near the
cesspool. We shall probably hear
more about that treasury Ailed with

be used to defile the democratic candi-
dates for congress.
But to continue with Dolliver. Hav-
ing-paid his respects to the congres-

gave ua a peep at the executive man-
sion. There, too, he must have found
rotten conditions, for he said:
“I share the universal digust of mak-
ing the great executive department

of politics." ,
Dirty money and patronage are two
of the things the Iowa man must
fight if he would put the republican
party in a position responsive to the
will of the people. -And his determina-
tion to make the Aght is voiced in the

will fight that evil, but as a republican.
I do not care what my political fate
may be.. My quarrel is with the mod-
ern method of money making. | be-
lieve they will destroy our republican
institutions."
In the foregoing is presented a very
good picture of the republican or-
ganisation of the country, from the
lips of an eminent republican, who
knowa something about the aubject he
to discussing. It to frank, clear and re-
freshing. The country's quarrel, like
Mr. Dolliver's, to with the modern
method of money making. But the re-
publican party and that method are
inseparable, and Senator Dolliver can
sion whose duty it is‘to see that
both the people and Are Insurance com-
panies were treated fairly, to remain in
office and do nothing except to allow
the Are Insurance companies to Ax
whatever rates they saw At. Now that
the commission has at last woke up
to-the realisation that it had a duty to
perform and are now making some sub-
stantial showing towards performing
that duty, it might be better,to simply
make such amendments to the key-
rate law as may be found necessary
and allow it to remain In effect The
agitation of its repeal entirely, it is be-
lieved has forced the commission to
act, and the Are insurance companies
have indicated that they are willing
to accept the reductions made by the
commission, which is virtually an ad
mission on their part that they (the
Are insurance companies) realise that
the key-rate as fixed by themselves is
too high.
Prise Aghting, conducted under the
most favorable conditions, is a dis-
grace td civilization and ought to be
stopped. There is but one state in the
union today where they can be pulled
off, and it to believed that the Jef-
fries-Johnson light, which takes place
today at Reno, Nevada, will be the last
from the fact that the scene to cal-
culated to disgust the people in that
state, and at the Arst opportunity will
make laws prohibiting a repetition of
them on Nevada soil. The only* ex-
cuse the Times has to make for pub-
lishing a detailed account of the Aght
to that our patrons or, at least, a great
majority of them, want the Aght news
and the Times has the facilities to give
it to them. It may be thought strange
that those who will condemn prize-
Aghting openly and above board, will
read eagerly every word printed of
the brutal combat, and the newspaper
which does not give it to them will
come in for a share of condemnation.
Probably they expect the papers’ to
publish the news that they may ac-
cumulate fresh evidence to condemn
such brutal sport. At 'any rate, the
Times has gone to a great deal of
fought in his day and over which An-
drew Jackson, of blessed and heroic
memory, triumphed in his day is firm-
ly entrenched in power now through
years and years of republican malad-
ministration and cannot be rooted out
without a terriAc struggle. The ben-
iAciaries thereof-will pour a stream of
gold like unto the River Pactolus into
the republican boodle fund with which
to debauch the voters of the land and
then recoup themselves by more of
special privilege granted by the men
for whom they buy the offices. For
years that endless chain has been in
operation and it will continue to oper-
ate until our system of government is
thoroughly purged of every variety
and every vestige of special privil-
ege.
"The tariff graft—one species of
special privilege, became so offensive
that Ave or six years ago even certain
republicans became dissatisfied and
began to demand a revision dawnward.
First there wore only what the doc-
tors call sporadic cases of republican
dissatisfaction; but the republican dis-
senters increased so rapidly that in
the spring of 1908 Hon. Sereno E.
Payne, chairman of the great commit-
tee on Ways and Means and ex-officio
republican floor leader In the house,
was driven into declaring that he
violated no confidence in stating that
the republicans would- revise the tariff.
His statement was equivocal, as he did
not say whether the revision was to
house applauded my offer, thereby
proving that 1 spoke their sentiments.
That was on May 21st, but the presi-
dept has never sent in any such mes-
sage and Mr. Chairman Payne has
never reported any such bill.
“Every newspaper in the land that
commented on my offer to the presi-
dent said that it was a fair proposition
and should be accepted. By reason
of republican refusal to cure that great
outrage hundreds of thousands of peo-
ple must shiver and freeze through
the ensuing winter. Doctors and phil-
anthropists are waging war against the
Great White Plague, which the woolen
good .schedule of the Payne-Aldrich-
Smoot tariff bill does so much to foe
tor. Shame upon men who will not
remedy, such a gross outrage, an out-
rage whose existence they admit, an
outrage which causes incalculable
sickness, suffering and death, an out-
rage which they have abundant power
to stop! 1 .
“If we have the next house, as I be-
lieve we will have, we will honestly
and courageously report a bill to re-
vise the tariff down to a revenue basis,
pass it through the house and send it
over to the senate. Perhaps by that
time the senate, yielding to the public
demand, will Also pass It. If it does
not, we will go to the people on that
issue in 1912.
“A Democrat is a man who believes
in Democratic principles and who
votes the Democratic ticket. In recent
years there has been much straggling
from the ranks. I cordially invite all
backsliders to come back home. I
also heartily invite all others who are
dissatisfied with Republican misrule
and Republican extravagance to join
us in the crusade for the overthrow
of the Republican machine. We mill
give them a warm welcome, not in-
quiring too closely Into their political
pedigrees or political antecedents. The
doors stand wide open. There is no
mourners' bench in the Church Demo-
cratic. Even life-long Republicans
will be welcomed on the good old prin-
ciple that,
“While the lamp holds out to burn,
The vilest sinner may return.”
While the price of Wichita Falls

The only “Aght news” on which the

news was manufactured by an agency
of which the Times to not a member.
So far, the news lacks confirmation,

THK TIMES AND THE FIGHT
The Aght fans of Wichita Falls re-
ceived the Arst news of the defeat of
Jeffries yesterday afternoon shortly be-
fore six o'clock when the “flash” was
be down or up, but, considering all the announced through a megaphone to
circumstances under which his utter-
ance was made, he intended it to be
understood aa a promise of revision
downward, and to do him perfect jus-
tice he claims that his bill is a re-
vision downward. . n
“Clearly he has been imposed upon
by his arithmetricans, for his bill re-
vises it up about 1.17 per cent on the
average. , His declaration, however,
did not allay the clamor among re-
publicans. It swelled into such a roar
that when theerepublicans hold their
national convention in 1908, they were
forced to promise tariff revision in
their platform. Again the promise was
equivocal, as it did not state whether
the revision was to be up or down.
But the demand for tariff revision
downward was so strong and so in-
sistent that a majority of republican
orators declared that the revision was
to be downward. On that promise

the crowd in front of the Tibes of-
fice. The Times scored another vic-
tory, by being the first to reach the
thousands of people'at Lake Wichita
with its special edition, furnishing the
fans there with the news of the result
of the Aght eight minutes ahead of any
other publication.
In order to give its patrons this ser-
vice, the Times had a special leased
wire in Its ofAce, giving the details of
each round to the waiting crowd within
an incredibly short time after each
blow was struck.
The crowd in front of the Times of-
Ace stretched all the way across the
street, almost blocking traffic and each
bit of news was eagerly received,
while the bulletins' were beting an-
nounced the mechanical 'department
was straining every effort to get the
news into type and on the press.
One of the fastest automobiles in
town was hastily loaded with the ex-
tra editions aa they came off the press
and speed regulations were forgotten
in the run to the lake. Just sixteen
minutes and forty seconds after the
extra was out, the big crowd at the
Colonnade pavilion was reading the
Arst authentic news of the result.
Without,any desire to do any undue
bragging, the Times believes that its
special Aght service was on a par with
that of any paper in the state, not even
excepting those In the larger cities.
It cost quite a bit of money. It entail-
ed a great deal of extra labor and

that was required of them was their
word of honor that they would pay
when they were educated and secured

cured their education in this manner

a bonus of less than one-half what oth-

burned building with a handsime three-
story brick and atone structure. The
total estimated value of the buildings
and grounds at thia time ia in the
neighborhood of $250,000, and this is
a most wonderful showing, considering
that the promoter started with nothing
and has built up the greatest normal
school in the entire south. This goes
to show what schoola will do for a
town. It to worth more to Commerce
than all other enterprises combined. •

there was not much prosperity to re-
cord, but by the adoption of the pres-
much of one particular thing, but a lit-
tle of nearly everything, of which the
rich and fertile soil is capable of pro-
ducing, this section of the state has”
more- than doubled its population and
wealth during the past ton years. The
government census of 1900, showed
Wichita county had less than 10,000-
population. The census for 1910 will
not fall short of 20,000 population, and
may go above that figure. This to all
the evidence necessary to prove con-
clusively that it pays to farm when
you go at it in the right way, and the
people of this section of the state are
doing that very, thing and they are

With a cotton acreage at least one-
third greater than last year and with
crop conditions better, the prospects
are that Wichita county will this year
produce at least 13,000 bales of cotton.
This to Ane, when it to considered
that only for the paat few years has
any attempt been made at cotton rais-
ing. In fact, Afteen years ago there
was not a cotton gin in the county,
and a bale of cotton when brought to
town on a wagon was considered some-
thing very extraordinary and some-
what of a curiosity. That was at a
time when the farmers had the one
crop idea and were planting all their
land to wheat and oats, and, in favor-
able years, they made money, perhaps
a great deal more than if the same
amount of land had been planted to
cotton. But the one crop idea has play-
ed out entirely in Wichita county, and
in thia whole section of the country
and since that time farm land values,
have doubled and tripled in price. Be-
sides this great advance in the price
of lands, the big ranches are almost
entirely a thing of the past The own-
ers have discovered that they cannot
afford to graze cattle on land that
would bring readily all the way from
$18 to $35-per acre, and wisely sold
them out to parttoe who resold them

one of the many reasons for its oppo-

Now, what do you think of that, com-
