The speed of the courts is enough
to make the accused black sox play-
ers in Chicago tremble. Two jurors
were selected in a single day and if
neither the state nor defense use their
challenges it will mean a valuahle ad-
dition to the stock of jurors being
accumulated. Why at that rate it will
only take a week to get the jury!
Ordinarily it is news when the
mayor leaves'town, but it was an un-
usual announcement when the Lord
Mayor of Cork arrived at home. He
has been mayor by correspondence
and has been everywhere except in
Cork since his election. It will be
another step toward the solution of
the Irish question if they can keep
Mm corked up now.
FLATTEN TIIE TIN CANS.
Tin cans should be flattened out
With an axe, hammer or other in-
strument before they are thrown into
the trash box.
The above suggestion is offered by
a local citizen as an important step
in solving the mosquito problem.
Open tin cans are prolific breeding
places of flies and > mosquitoes, es-
pecially when they have caught a few-
Inches of rain vater. By flattening
them out they will hold no water and
will be more sanitary until they are
removed with the rest of the trash.
Incidentally they will not take up so
much room in the trash can this way.
Trash receptacles filled with tin cans
half full of soured water do not give
forth a pleasant odAr and are not con-
ducive to healthful conditions around
the place.
With continued rains mosquitoes
and flies are flourishing. They can
not all be swatted, but their breeding
places can be invaded and destroyed
and no doubt this method of dispos-
ing of tin cans will go a long ways to-
ward solving the problem.
SAD MAYS FOR GERMANY—AND
FRANCE.
The warning of Premier Briand to
Germany that the Rhine region will
be occupied until all the stipulations
in the peace treaty have been com-
plied with—including proper punish-
ment of those who violated Hie rules
of civilized warfare during the world
■war—will evoke temporary enthusi-
asm in France and perhaps some of
the countries allied with her in the
conflict, but to practical and experi-
enced observers of world events dur-
ing the last decade it appears that the
warni. may have been a little pre-
mature. There is every reason why
the German war criminals should be
punished, yet when Premier Briand or
any other statesman undertakes to
guarantee that punishment he as-
sumes a laudable but large contract.
Manifestly it is net right to single
out a few minor officers in the Ger-
man army and make them the goats
for the war crinus while higher and
more responsible offhials are given a
clean slate, but it now appears that
■Wilhelm, Hlndenburg, J.udendorff arid
Von Tirpitz have got quite beyond the
reach of the allies. As to Premier
Briand's proud boast that the Rhine
will be occupied until these criminals
are brought to justice, we might well
recall that right after the armistice
was signed similar and ( von more de-
termined threats were made against
the former kaiser, but even the most
optimistic do not now hope that Wil-
helm will ever be brought before the
tear of justice.
All of us would like to see the Ger-
man culprits punished, but at th<
came time wo must appreciate that if
the Rhine Is occupied until such pun-
ichmcnt is brought about the result
will be annexation of the Rhine ter-
rito y by France. Premier Briand'
threat carries sad news for Germany,
but i,l he is not able to carry It nut tin
Frem h will be sorely disappointed,

Ordinarily there is 111 Me sentiment
of Inspiration In a mass, of figures, but
the average Texan will find much to
arouse hit pride in the figures sliow-
tft# the enormous extent to which the
frvrt of Qftiveston ha* growu, iu Uiv
matter of wheat exports for the year
closing June 16 Galveston scored a
total equaling the exports from the
three great ports of New York, Balti-
more and Boston, the exports from
the Texas port, Including those from
Texas City, which owes its standing
as a port to the succesa of the deep-
water campaign waged for a genera-
tion by Galveston, being 86,645,851
bushels.
In the same time New York ex-
ported 51,517,000 bushels; Baltimore
SZ,897,396 and Boston S,592,571
bushels. The increase at Galveston
over the preceding year was nearly
46 per cent.
In cotton also Galveston ranked at
the top and this record affords grati-
fying evidence of the wisdom of the
general government In making liberal
appropriations for deepening the
channel and harbor at Galveston. It
was in the administration of Benjamin
Harrison, a republican, that the cus-
tom of making small appropriations
for the ports of the south was rele-
gated and a lump appropriation of
$0,400,000 was made for getting deep
water at Galveston. President Har-
rison was roundly abused by the
northern ports for approving this big
appropriation but he made himself
friends all over the south by his ac-
tion.
The gigantic task of building the
jetties at Galveston was accomplished
and Ihe rail haul to tidewater from
the great granary states of the middle
west was cut down over 700 miles.
Transcontinental railroad lines and
the great shipping interests which had
spent millions building terminals and
port facilities at other Atlantic ports
fought Galveston for years, but sur-
rendered in the end and contributed
other millions to making it the port its
advantages entitled it to be, until now
Galveston is attracting world wide at-
tention by the enormous proportions
of the business flowing through it.
This splendid triumph of the Texas
port is the crowning victory of the
brave citizens of Galveston, who for
years spent their own money in ef-
forts to build a port and waged un-
ceasing war to that achievement. Af-
ter years of effort they enlisted with
them the states of the middle west and
many western states, including Colo-
rado, Utah and others. It was with
the aid of the representatives in con-
gress from these states that the build-
ing of the jetties was made possible
and the final triumph, so eloquently
recorded in the figures here given,
was assured.
The growth of Galveston shows
the need of port facilities on the gulf
coast and at this time there are other
coast cities in Texas struggling againsi
odds, such as Galveston had to con-
tend with, in their efforts to gain
recognition, in time this recognition
must come and it is not too visionary
to predict that in a few years Texas
will have other ports handling busi-
ness in the same proportion as Gal-
veston is now enjoying, and that with-
out detriment to the growth of Gal-
veston. The development of Texas re-
sources alone will furnish business for
several ports of the size of Galveston
and that development is being made
in rapid strides. Ultimately cotton
mills will multiply to add their output
to the huge volume of exports and
coastwise shipments and other indus-
tries will spring up furnishing traffic
both in exports and imports.
We congratulate Galveston upon, its
splendid showing, which is the
summation of efforts of the same men
who had large part in the stalilish-
ment and upbuilding of Temple.
eient performance of their foremost
duty, the defense «f the country
There was but one thing then to do.
and it is being done.
In n few days a training camp for
citizens will be opened at Camp Grant.
It Is for volunteers. There citizens
who are accepting their duty to fight
when the call comes may go to learn
the rudimentary duties of the soldier.
The cafnp is one of nine, one In
each corps area of the newly organ-
ized army. It will be directed by pro-
fessional soldiers. There will be train-
ing in arms. There will be Instruc-
tions In how to care for one's self In
camp and march and field. There
will be instructions in athlctlcs and
proper entertainment.
We believe any young man who at-
tends these camps will be the better
for it in every respect. He will have
an outing which will be an experience
of lifelong benefit. He will come out
stronger physically,morally,and ment-
ally, and we hope he will make him-
self an active missionary to preach the
benefits of the camp to all youth
within his reach and to their parents.
The national guard service, the re-
serve officers' training camps, the
citizens 'training camps like that at
Camp Grant cannot give the republic
what it should have. "A citizenry
trained and accustomed to arms,' But
they are an example, a reminder of
duty, and a nucleus of defense. TVe
must do the best we can to make
them a success until public opinion
takes hold of the lesson of patriotic
citizenship which they teach and we
are ready to accept the logic of our
democratic principle of national de-
fense, which requires not only that
the citizen shall defend his country
when called but that he should be
prepared to perform that duty.—

i Meddling Americans.
Why not bobbed hair?
We are glad to read that western
employers are not inclined to follow
the example of an eastern concern
which has decreed that its lady em-
ployes shall not bob their hair.
Speaking without prejudice from the
viewpoint of beauty in any particular
case, and examining this ordinance in
the light of reaso.i, we can see no
reason why any emloyer should ob-
ject to bobbed hair unless he runs a
hair-dressing parlor. To our mere
masculine mind, bobbed hair seems
worthy of consideration as a measure
of coolness and sanitation.
Our guess would be that the taboo
of the eastern concern was proposed
by a lady "welfare" director rather
than by any male official. But what-
ever the source, we sympathize hearti-
ly with the resentment which the em-
ployes affected undoubtedly feel
against such a stupid meddling with
personal liberty. Most business con-
cerns have a legitimate Interest in the
deportment and appearance of their
employes, and if either passes the
bounds of decency, have a right to
protest and prohibit. But we should
say that, short of such excesses, an
employer would do well to restrain
any disposition to regulate.
. The incident is an example of what
is becoming a general habit of med-
dling in one another's private affairs.

ANDREW AND IMOGENS
(By Roe ruiaeraan)
*" "Andrew" said Imogene, "after tht
theatre tonight let's not go to the Cafe
Royal. I would like to try some new
place. Let's go up to the Grand.
"What for?" asked Andrew, tugging
at * refractory collar.
"Oh, I am tired of that silly Jas*
music at the Cafe Royal," Mid Imo-
gene. "I understand they have two
grand opera singers at the Grand."
"Then It's all off," said Andrew.
"None of that sob stuff In mine!
When I have music with my eats I
want it to be cheerful music, not a
lot of prison songs and things like
that. I have been to food foundries
and wine steubs where they had op-
eratic stars and my hand is In the

"I)ont you tike good music?" asked
Imogene as she fixed her hair.
"My dear woman," said Andrew.
"There is a place for everything. I
like a chicken fight, but I would not
try to pull one at a church social.
"When you go to one of these high
class places and get big league eats
in front of you, you begin to feel at
peace with the world and begin to
think that you are nothing but a
young man after all, and if you should
happen to become a widower you
mostNikely would get another wife
anyway, and just as you begin to
throw out your cheat and glance
around to see if the good looking wo-
men in the dining room are staring at
you, the opera singer in the corner

sing 'Darling I am growing old, silver

in one of those places I was sitting
looking at you and thinking of the

with the sheet the hour-glass and the

when you had your fingers crossed
and there were no crow's feet or oth-
er indications of the fugiting of tem-

done pretty well myself and that for
a couple married all the years we had

that 'Now, we are aged and gray,' anil
my party was spoiled right there.
"I began to wonder what two old
fossils like you and I were doing kick-

His Worst Foe
"His own worst enemy," men said,
when Jasper Piffleton lajj dead. And
Jasper, who would never save, was
dumped into a cheap-john grave. This
Jasper, in his younger clays, ranged
high among the gilded jays who drew
big pay and blew the same in every
vain and idle game. His friends be-
seeched him to reform and guard
against the clay of storm by storing
safely in a crate the kopeck and the
piece-of-eight. The village banker
gave advice, and said, "Some day
you'll lack the price; then you'll re-
gret, in scalding tears, the folly of
these wasted years." But Jasper Pif-
fleton ignored the wise man's counsel,
and was bored. Then countless jas-
pers lost their jobs; the streets were
full of hengry mobs. Our hero joined
the jobless men and never could get
back again. Oh, now and then he
earned some plunks, iiy painting gates
or packing trunks, or dumping turnips
in a bin—ftnd evermore he blow them
in. And when advancing years
brought ills, he could not buy Doc
Dingbat's pills, which heal all pains
and raise the dead and grow new
whiskers on your head. And so one
bleak arid dismal day this Jasper gent
was laid away among the paupors on
the hill; the county dourly paid the
bill. "His own worst foe," the sexton
sighed, and filled the grave, and let
him slide.

Leslie Elliott was nominated as the
Bell county candidate for director of
the Farm Bureau Cotton association
for district No. 15, Including William-
son and Milam counties, at a conven-
tion of growers held at the Chamber
of Commerce rooms here yesterday
afternoon. The auditorium was filled
to overflowing, there being close to
100 members present, and all seemed
enthusiastic tor the perfection of the
cotton organization.
A combination waiver of the right
to draw out because the maximum of
1,000,000 bales was not reached and a
ballot to be cast for director are In
circulation now, having Deen sent out
by headquarters at Dallas. Owing to
the delay of a convention in this dis-
trict the state executive committee
caused to be printed on the ballots the
names of Resile Elliott and 1). K. King
of Taylor. A space is also left for
any other name to be written In.
Mr. Elliott was chosen chairman of
the meeting. He explained that the
©rganizatlon committee was speeding
up the work of organization in order
to take care of tbe south Texas cotton
crop and that his name had • been
placed on the printed ballot over his
protest and asked the convention to
disregard this ac tion entirely.
Cpon a vote be won over T. B. Rlnn
of Oenaville and John Hui ta of Seaton
and was then unanimously declared
the nominee by a viva voce vote. The
election is now going on by mail. Each
member is sent a waiver and ballot
which he signs and sends to head-
quarters. Rest some ballots might be
lost in the mails the suggestion was
made yesterday that one waiver
and ballot be made out and as many
as wanted to could sign it. Many of
the crowd left before this was done,
but forty-three signed.
The matter of receiving stations
was taken up and Bciioti, Temple,
Rogers, Heidcnhcimer and R'illeen
were among the points suggested. The
chairman was instructed to appoint a
committee to choose receiving agents
for the cotton. The committee was
not announced yesterday.

1 have lived lonp rnrmph to l«arn
The things whkh htr pre:it toiKrrn,
And I would writf thc»m down today
Fcr him uho follows in my wny;
T would laiprcss upon his mind
The peace that comes of bring kind
And 1 would teach him thrr<'s no fame
That can exoef an Trormred name.
Fnto the eyes of youth it prtmR
That moat important tire its dream*.
Vet high-flown dream.* come tumbling down
And few attain the world's renown,
Ann} even those who rise to powr r
Must live through many a trouM*d hour*
The thing that counts thnmplt p.i'e and
strife
Is. pbove all. a well-lived life
Bettor by far than gfrory fa mod,
Is to meet all men unashamed;
Hreater than Jortune's glittering gold
ia love of friends when man Is old;
Who earns his neighbors' high rsfeem
Need never m00in some broken dream.
Who knows true friends are sending by
Hag peace which wealth cannot supply.
As Time, the great teacher of us nil,
Shows us her glories, large? and small.
Much that we orr*o thought splendid, pales
And the groat. Joy of conquest fails;
Hicher than days victorious glow
The kindlier days of long ago,
He knows true glory at the end
Who's played the man and playrd the
friend.
