Candidate Ferguson i* cred-
ited with saying he is preparer!
to spend $30,000 in his campaign.
Well, if he spends that much we
hope it will do more good to the
fellows who get it than it will
Mr. Ferguson.
Collifr's Weekly summed up
the situation nicely by saying
that when the advocates of free
tolls showed that they were en
titled to ride on the street cars
without paying fare, then they
might be able to show why pri-
vately owned ships should be
exempt from canal charges.
William Randolph Hearst
has been making war on Presi-
dent Wilson because the latter
did not go to war with Mexico
without waiting for adequate
cause, and now that war is here,
we have seen no notice that M r.
Hearst has volunteered his ser-
vices at the front.
The Mesquiter pauses to re-
mark that Hatton W. Summers
is making a tine Congressman.
Although a line talker, possess-
ing abilit.v in that respect above
the average member of Con-
gress, he hasn't been windjam-
ming, but is on the job every
minute in the interest of his
constituents. It is work and not
talk that counts.
None of us, saints or sinners,
observe Sunday as we ought to,
but the Dallas real estate men,
particularly the promoters of
new additions, make it their main
business day, and then boast
about iK It seems to us that
they will have enough to answer
for for inducing people to buy
city sized lots in the country,
without advertising their Sab
bath desecration. .
Including the splendid staff
articles by Editor Lloyd P. Loch-
ridge and the reprint of the po-
litical views of other papers over
the state under the caption of
"Texas Politics," the Austin
Statesman keeps its readers
pretty well informed as to the
political situation. Perhaps it
believes that politics and states
manship are synonymous terms,
and is trying to live up to its
name.
The women of Illinois, who
now enjoy suffrage in a limited
degree, voted 1,100 saloons out
at the election held on the second
day of this month, and on the
same day, "Bath House John"
Coughlan was re-elected an al-
derman of the city of Chicago,
receiving more female votes than
M iss Drake, his lady opponent.
Ail of which would indicate that
"Bath House lohn" is not as bad
as he has been painted.
The fact that we have a United
Prjss doesn't imply that all
newspapers are in agreement.—
Dallas Evening Journal.
And a perusal of the afternoon
papers of Dallas convince us that
the United Press is rot united
with or associated with the As-
sociated Press, hence there
-seems to be little danger that
^they wiJ be made joint defend
t&nts in an anti trust suit by our
vigilant Attorney General.
The action of Col. Jake Wel-
ters, or rather we should say
ex-Colonel Wolters in serving
notice on Sam Sparks that he
would not support the latter even
if he won out at the "Construc-
tive Democratic" convention, de-
stroyed whatever chance the
'antis had of electing the next
[Governor. And now a lot of
[those who followed to defeat the
lag of the "Pride of L G range,"
rill agree with us that Texas did
flno day's work when it re-
fused to seud him to the U. S.
mate.
ae
A HOUSTON VIEWPOINT
Governor Colquitt takes a
roseate view of the political situ-
ation from his own standpoint.
He thinks it will be comparative-
ly easy for Jim Ferguson or any
other man to win against Colonel
Ball.
This comes as still another
indication of the Governor's
unwillingness or incapacity to
comprehend the drift of public
sentiment
No one who has followed the
campaign thus far can doubt
that Colonel Ball's chances of
securing tiie Democratic nomi-
nation are brighter than they
ever were, and this is said with
the understanding that they have
been pretty bright from the
outset.
No one denies Governor Col-
quitt's right to wish Colonel
Ball's defeat, but it is rather
strange that he should make this
wish the father of such an ab
surd prediction, especially at a
time and place when it can do no
good,
In the first place, the opposi-
tion to Colonel Hall cannot even
unite upon a candidate, and suc-
cess would be very doubtful if it
could.
James E. Fegusou is in the
race to stay, and a goodly por-
tion of the sq called anti faction
will line up with Tom Ball before
they will accept him and his
fanciful doctrines.
The withdrawal of so many
candidates, the break down of
the Dallas program and the de-
moralization of the Fort Worth
convention, which came together
Tuesday only to tight and lly to
pieces, ought to give sufficient
evidence of weakness to indicate
the hopelessness to oppose Colo-
nel Bill's nomination.
A month or six weeks ago
intelligent management and
shrewd manipulation might have
succeeded in inaugurating a for-
midable campaign against his
candidacy.
The blundering performance
that resulted in the present
Fort Worth fiasco has blasted
everv prospect, for suoeessful
opposition.—Houston Chronicle.
LARGE PER CENT. REJECTED
Leading Book Publishers Accept About
One in Every ^Hundred Manu-
scripts Sent to Them.
Wo hnvD heard a good deal of tbe
mistakes of publishers, but now
comes Mr. Maoinillan to assure ua
that the publisher stands between tha
public and a lot of sud nonsense. Mr.
Msemillan's firm accepts about one
in every hundred manuscripts tub-
mitted to them, but it is to be feared
that other publishers do not show
tho same discrimination. Consider-
ing the amount of drivel that finds
its way into print one can only de-
jectedly wonder what sort of stuff it
is that is rejected. At the name time
Mr. Maomillan admits that the man-
uscript of "John Inglesant" was de
dined by several leading publisher!
and eventually a few copies were
printed for private circulation. Mrs.
Humphrey received one of these
copies and sent it to Macmillan's and
they decided to take the risk, and it
need not be said that the story is now
regarded as a classic. Mr. Thomas
Hardy was once "declined with
thanks" and has since professed him-
helf as profoundly grateful for Um
rebuff.—-San Francisco Argonaut.

Some people can't sleep. There
seems to bo no spcclal reason. They
have no dlBease of the nervous sys-
tem. Digestion Is fairly good. Their
habits are pretty good. They may
smoke a little or drink a little, yet
their habits are fair. Still they can't
sleep well.
Just a little unbalanced In the nerve
centers. That Is all. They should
have a little "righting up."
A tonic will generally do this. The
right sort of a tonle. Peruna is ex-
actly the tonic. Digestion is hurried
by Peruna. The stomach is empty
ond ready to rest for the night. The
circulation is equalized. The brain
is relieved of all congestions and Irrl-
tat Ions.
The Peruna acts on every blood
vessel in the system. It acts on all
of the nerve centers. One begins to
sleep and hardly knows why.
Take a teaspoonfui to one table-
spoonful of Peruna before each meal.
Sometimes another tablespoonful at
bedtime is necessary, where the sleep-
lessness Is very pronounced.
Just try it, neighbor. You will bo
glad If you do." One bottle will con-
vince you. Peruna Is no sleep medi-
cine. It Is not a nervine. It contains
no narcotics. It la nothing of that
aort. It is simply a regulative tonic.

with the last edition of the "Ills of
Life," sent free by the Peruna Co,

CULLOM& POUTER
By CELIA ROBINSON.
On Decoration day Hetty Manning, j
a telegraph operator, picked her preb
tlest rosea.
"I am going
down to tbe serv-
ice* at the Na-
Uonal cemetery,"
■he told her moth-
er, "and i shall
put these flow«rs
on the new-made
graves Perhaps
some heart would
be comforted a
little If she knew
that her boy
would not be quite
forgotten."
As she knelt that afternoon beside
a grave, scattering roses on the new
sod, a man came and stood beside
her, watching the white-robed figure,
wistfully, as tbe sweet face bent above
the loving task.
As Betty rose she saw him standing
beside her. He was a soldier dresse*!
In the uniform of a non-commissioned
officer. The face under the thatch
of curly cheBtnut hair was very good
to look upon.
Betty smiled at him kindly and
pointed to tho flowers.
"There aren't many," she said, "but
I thought I would do what I could.
LThere Isn't much one can do."
"Oh, the little more and how much
It Is;
? Oh, the little less, and what world's
away."
quoted the sergeant, as he returned
the smile, with Interest.
Betty stared a little. She had not
expected a common soldier to greet
her with Browning.
"You see," he went on, "It Is Just
that little more that Is so very much
r—the little more of kindness and good-
•will. A mother praying for her boy
(tonight would bless you If she knew."
"Maybe she will know, some day,"
eald Betty, softly. "If I knew who
and where she was I would write to
her."
"I know where she is," said the
soldier. "The boy who lies here was
an old playmate of mine and his
mother llveB in a little town In Maine.
I shall write to her tonight. Will you
send her a message?"
"Yes," said tho girl. Impulsively.
"Give her my love and tell her that
this grave shall be my special care.
That I shall tend it and at least 12
times each year she may feel sure
that there are flowers on it."
Then her mother came and Betty,
with a little friendly nod, left him.
It would be hard to tell whose
thoughts were the busiest with the
other for tho next few days. Tha
young non-commissioned officer could
not keep Betty's sweet face and voice
out of his mind. The golden hair and
the blue eyes haunted him. As for
Betty, now and then as she sat at
her work Bh .J.;ll to dreaming, al-
ways of a youhg man in a uniform of
khaki, with curly chestnut hair, who
quoted Browning.
One day as Betty was clicking away
the dream she was dreaming material-
ized, and her soldier stood before her.
"I did not dare hope for this," he
said, as she came forward. "I came
In to send a message to my father; I
did not know that you were here.
I have hoped to see you because I
wanted to give you this." And h
handed her a note.
It was from the mother In far-off
Maine and Betty's eyes were full of
tears as she read the kind words of
thanks.
"But you had a message for me,
had you not?" she asked.
lie gave her the message and after
a few words, rather formal on both
Bides, he took his departure.
This was the message he had given
Betty to send and she could not but
read It with more than ordinary in-
terest:
"To Clias. H. Livingstone, Auditor
Solid Insurance company, Plerreton,
Canada. I have today received hon-
orable discharge from army. Will be
with you In a fortnight. Chas. H. Liv-
ingstone, Jr."
It. was three days later that Betty
boarded a North Hill car on her way
home, to find only one vacant seat and
that beside a handsome man in a suit
of gray tweeds. She did not at first
recognize him in civilian clothes, but
when he lifted his hat she knew the
curly crop and the smile in the dark
eyes. Tho man In khaki had worn h
mustache, but this young man was
clean-shaken.
Betty thought him handsomer than
ever. As for Livingstone, Betty was
his one dream, now, and in the light
of her sweet smile he was emboldened
to say:
"I wrote a letter to the mother In
Maine today. I expect to see her soon.
I am going away."
"Yes, I know," said Betty. "I'm so
Borry." Then she blushed. "I couldn't
help knowing, you see. I read your
telegram."
"I know," he said, "but I would
'Ike to tell you more." And he did.
