President Ransone then made his' an-
nual address, which dealt with the sub-
harmony and co-operation among
the fraternity. The address is as follows:
PRESIDENT RANSONE'S ADDRESS.
Ladles and Gentlemen of the Texas
Press Association: These are some things
for which the press of Texas lias a right
to be thankful. The right of a contract
lias been restored to us through the in-
telligent and persistent efforts of Sen-
ator Perkins and other friends of the
press. Governor Colquitt's very kindly
attitude upon this measure, his platform
utterances, his remarks upon the stump
and his friendliness in permitting the bill
as amended to become a law, should be
commended. This return to us of our
inherent right is a vindication of the
press of Texas from the unwarranted at-
tacks and false charges of corruption
made by cheap politicians and dema-
gogues. The editors of Texas are as
honest, as patriotic and as fearlessly in
i'lioto by Wilson A: Jensen, Austin.
C. E. Gil.MORE.
fependent a lot of gentlemen as you will
Inil in any other profession or calling.
They are contributing more largely in
proportion to their capital than any other
class of citizens In the upbuilding of the
educational, the moral and civic and the
commercial interests of the State.
During the coming contest over State-
wide prohibition there will be members
of this association who will differ as to
what Is for the best Interests of the
State. Some zealots outside the calling
will go so far as to try "subsidized
press." I recommend that, while we con-
duct out editorial columns as our con-
science dictates that We bear In mind at
nil times that we will be citizens of
Texas neighbors, and ought to be
friends, long after the smoke of the bat-
tle shall have cleared away. So let's be
careful of our language, according our
fellow citizens the same honesty of In-
tent that we feel ourselves. Then the
accusation "subsidized press" will be as
futile as It was when it was made dur-
ing the agitation of the antipass law.
No matter which way the election goes,
Texas will march on to her great destiny
ns radiant as the sun and as matchlessly
■ beautiful as the Illy, whose heart Is
bathed in sparkling dewdrops, and there
will be plenty of work left for all of us
to do in peace and harmony.
I"ROES A CLEAN PRESS.
T.et us strive to give Texas a clean
press, not shirking or dodging real news,
nut minimizing those dastardly deeds
Committed by moral perverts, the acts
that affect the s.ierertness of the home
and the misdirected conduct of the un-
fortunates of the underworld those poor
creatures and their depraved compan-
ions. who have stepped beyond the light
Into the shadow, where sin. shame, sad-
ness and sorrow sit side by side, The
world is full of good deeds, noble efforts,
commendable sacrifices, civic advance-
ment, educational uplift, commercial
achievements, and everywhere there is
the good, the beautiful and the pure to
be written about and applauded.
I have no desire or Intent to lay down
any rules for the conduct of newspapers.
Every editor has a field peculiarly his
own. and he will, by studying his con-
ditions, know best how to act.
Unfriendly competition is a cause of
many newspaper men failing to realize
a talr compensation for his labor and
investment. There Isn't enough inter-
course among newspaper people at home,
enough fraternity, enough discussion of
those things that are for their mutual
interest. l*abor and the other expenses
of printing have steadily Increased dur-
ing the past ten years. Yet there are
newspaper men who are listening to this
address who are charging no more for
their product than they did ten years
ago. Tills is the greatest trouble'with
the printing and publishing business. I
stress the importance of fraternltv. For
this end the Texas Press Association was
organized. Get your competitor to Join
this splendid organization, and, if not
oftener, once a year, you can meei n!m
away troni the scenes of active competi-
tion, and talk over with him the reasons
Why you are not making the money your
labor and investm»nt are entitled to. 1
am not advocating a trust but I do
earnestly endorse any legitimate means
of a more intelligent understanding of
the fundamental principles of business
success, the most Important of which
is friendly competition, which can be
about by a better acquaintance
with those whu are engaged In the same
honorable calling.
The following committee on the presi-
dent s message was appointed: Tom W
Perkins, <J. E. Gilmore, J. H. Lowery.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
"Texas Under Six Flags" was the sub-
ject of a paper read bv F. B. Baillio of
Cleburne, who was first on the pro-
gramme for tiie afternoon session of the
press association. The speaker displayed
fn'rv'i,?™ Six f,laKS' from that "f Spain
2 n. Glory, as he told of the experience
of lexas. As he unfolded the Iyme star
flag the audience applauded and it ap-
plauded more when the ensign of the
Confederacy was unfolded and still more
when the Stars and Stripes floated above
the speaker s head.
\V. C. Edwards of Denton read a paper
on the subject. "Should the press give
free publicity to fairs and meetings of
any character calculated to boost certain
cities or localities." lie drew a. line he-
C.
D.
1 wen such fairs and entertainments as
were absolutely free and those to which
an admission fee was charged, and took
the ground that those which were gotten
up to raise money or to boost some in-
terest should contribute something to
the newspaper for the publicity desired
He urged the adoption of this policy by
all the members of the association
On motion of F. B. Baillio an appro-
priation of $,i), or so mych as necessary
was ordered to buy a testimonial for the
retiring president of the association
William A. Bowen of Arlington 'in n
paper on "The Sphere and Influence of
the Rural Press, lauded the country
newspaper as the real medium for mold-
ins public opinion.
Secretary Harben reported letters and
telegrams of regret from absent mem-
bers. i larence Ousley of the Fort Worth
Record, after expressing regret over not
being able to attend, invited the assoc a
tion to meet next year in Fort Worth
Others absent who sent messages are
A. Dazavall, George W. McKnlght Sf
ban Marcos, Summer I.ansdale, orator of
the association, now in Washington as

was addressed to newspaper men and Its
subject was "What Is Your Standard "
His paper was applauded generously
Port Arthur today entered the list as a
candidate for the next meeting, but the
supporters of Temple profess to feel no
alarm. 11U

sociation good, there being a balance of

CURES
BLOOD POISON
Contagious Blood Toison usually begins with a tiny sore or pimple as
the only outward evidence of its presence. But in a short while its many
symptoms begin to make their unwelcome appearance. The mouth and
throat ulcerate, itching rashes appear on the body, the hair comes out easily,
brown splotches appear on the limbs, etc. So highly contagious is the dis^
ease that it is sometimes communicated from one person to another by the
use of the same toilet articles or handling the clothes of an infected person.
S. S. S. has been curing Contagious Blood Poison for more than forty years!
It goes right down into the circulation, and removes every particle of the

1EI1S LYON HE
CAN NOT RESIGN
ais RETIREMENT AT THIS TIME
WOULD INDUCE ANARCHY AND
BE ACT OF COWARD.
IS NOT EXCITED
According to Cecil A. Lyon, who re-
turned from the City of Mexico with
Mrs. Lyon Thursday night, President
Porflrlo Diaz has not the remotest idea
of retiring till peace is restored in his
country and tho government turned over
to hands as statde as his own.
Colonel Lyon, who is chairman of the
Republican State Committee of Texas
and member of the Republican National
Committee for this State, spent more
than an hour at the home of President
Diaz Tuesday evening and talked with
him at length about the revolution and
kindred matters.
"I ask/jd him," said Colonel Lyon, "if
lie means to quit. He turned to me with
Komething of a smile playing over his
rugged features and said retirement at
tills time or at any time when such would
mean anarchy would be the act of a
coward. And then, while the fire of an
indomitable spirit shone in his eyes, he
suddenly asked:
" 'Is that the opinion your countrymen
have of me?'
" 'Not yet,' I told him.
" 'And they never will,' he added.
"All reports that President Diaz is in
bad health or that his mind does not
work as vigorously as ever, are bun-
combe and nothing else. He seems as
strong as he ever did to me. mentally
and physically. Ho has no doubt of be-
ing able to restore order throughout Mex-
ico and when that time comes, I be-
lieve, ho will turn over the government
to another. For the present, however, he
will retain command and will not even
fix a date for hlo retirement.
"To say he would quit the presidency
Juno 10, or November 30, for that matter,
would, In his opinion, mean the insurecto
chieftains would keep the peace till he
retired and then immediately begin a
lawlessness that would be anarchy and
nothing else. The only way to get him
j to retire. I gathered, !s for absolute or-
der to prevail all over Mexico and for
those now heading the lnsurection to
show signs of a perpetuation of a condi-
tion of that kind.
MEXICO APPEARS SERENE.
"One can hear ten times as much about
the insurrection right here in San Anto-
nio as he can hear in "Ihe Mexican cap-
ital. We had no difficulty whatever in
getting through to the border. I notice
the newspapers talk of a great battle
having been fought near Saltillo. I was
In that city Wednesday night and
talked with a number of gentlemen about
business. When we had finished this
subject we began a discussion of a polo
game in which they felt a deep interest."
■nii; to Colonel Parker of the
Eleventh Cavalry, Colonel Lyon said:
"I certainly mean no disrespect to the
American Army, of which I am part, but
if *100 insurectos were turned loose in
Western Texas it would take all the
cavalry of the United States a vear to
round them up. That s what the "federal
troops aro up against in Northern Mex-
ico.
"Rut T have no opinions about the In-
surrection to express. Both sides treat
News, j me with the utmost courtesy, and 1 be-
~ ' lieve any Amcrb-an who is treated other-
wise Is looking for it. I see no use what-
ever for Americans to be leaving Mex-
ico unless they be nervous and afraid
they will cause their relatives and kins-
men uneasiness because of intercepted
communications. Had I the time I'd re-
main right in the heart of Mexico till
something of a more decisive nature turns
up."
Mrs. Lyoh has been In the Citv of
Mexico since the Christmas holidays.
Colonel and Mrs. Lyon will rest in this
city several days before going to Sher-
man.
HE TELLS WAR STORY.
"The finest war Hfory I ever heard,"
said the Sherman man. "was told me by
a discharged negro, who had been in
one of the regiments that distinguished
themselves at FA Caney and San Juan
Hill. I was In Boulder, Colo., directly
after the close of the Spanish-American
war and ran into this darkey. He had
one leg bungled up, an arm in a sling
and his fare swathed in bandages. I
got Into conversation with him and
learned something of his career. He was
very proud of what his regiment had
done In Cuba and quite willing to talk
about it.
'How did you fellows come to show
so much grit'.'- I asked him. I'll never
forget his reply.
"'You see it was dis way, boss,* he
answered. 'S' fur as me and de men
