Thf president recommends the ex-
tension of the civil service principle
to all clashes of postmasters. He must
be an insurgent.
: i Everybody who has read the presi-
dent's message clear through, without
Skip, will please stand up and be
counted.
The record of new railroads char-
tered and building', lor the current
year, is pretty good, for one regular
and three special sessions of the leg-
islature to have been contempora-
neous.
Texas has escaped severe cold to
this date, and it has also escaped
needed rains. The weather man is
i V
lying In wait for Christmas, to un-
load at about that time.
With Christmas coming on Sunday
this year, and with the school holiday
of two weeks, the kids will never
mind. Tne will compromise by spread-
In* the big day over the whole pe-
riod.
Department stores in New York are
handling suffragette hosiery. The un-
mentionables are in stripes of green,
purple and white, (he colors of the
women's political union. If they are
going to display their colors that way,
they will attract an attention which
has hitherto been withheld on this
side of the Atlantic.
One of the Inconsistencies of the
election law concerns the securing of
exemption certificates by those citi-
zens "who are over sixty years of age.
The law requires that they shall se-
cure exemption certifl.hflte each year.
It is delicately urged by some of the
veteran* that haying once rpached the
age of sixty, there is no known case
of tb«ir having ever gotten any young-
er, and they rather thirtk that 'one ex-
exptlon certificate should last them
the remainder of their mortal days.
If President Taft succeeds in abol-
ishing the "pork barrel" system of
looting fhe treasury, he will have ac-
tio regard for the teasibility of a pro-
ject. and uo care as to the needs of
the building or other expensive struc-
ture he has put in. And too often,
the efficiency of a congressman is
measured by the amount of money he
can get for his district. President
Tafi has pronounced against tk«s sys-
tem. If he will only follow that up
with an order, or" a r&lwmmendation, !
that the names of thf pensioners be j
made public, with amounts drawn,
and what for, he would be the great-
est public benefactor (hat has wann-
ed the seat for many a year, and he
would almost persuade the southern
democrats to vote for him.
Harnill can't fill your prescriptions I
foi less than the other fellow because j
he uses Squibb's chemicals and they
cost more.

Fort Davis Land Sells For $10.
Washington, Dec. 7.—James W.
Witten of the general land office In
charge of the sale of the government
reservation at the abandoned port,
Fort Davis, Texa*, reported today
that twenty tracts sold out of the
thirty brought an average of $10 an
acre. There are approximately six-
teen acres to the tract.

Brownwood Boy Is Burned to Death.
Brownwood, Tex., Dec. 7.—The lit-
tl» 2-year-old son of W. R. Harris
was burned to death here yesterday
while playing with his sister near a
fireplace. The mothar was away
from home and neighbors reached
the child too late to save lilm.
Hurt in Hay Press.
Arthur Bishop, a young man of
the Roger® community, was brought
to a Temple hospital yesterday for
treatment of a crushed leg, which
had been .caught in a hay press.
The limb is badly injured and it
is feared that amputation will be
necessary.
Deterioration of the Fox.
Has the f^i deteriorated in recent
years? Authorities differ in their opin-
ions. My own Is that he has not the
stamina, and often not the constitu-
tion or the bone of the species 60 or
60 years ago.—Country Gentleman.
Mexican Carelessnese.
In Mexico the loss of a limb to a
railroad employee Is of frequent oc-
currence. Neglected Injuries to feet,
legs and arms are the cause of many
amputations which, perhaps In rooler
climates, might have been avoided.

A NEWSPAPER
(Continued from Page 1.)
of Mr. Walker, an American in Mex-
ico is the football of both factions.
The insurgents were in possession of
Torreon when he passed through, and
he was arrested and taken to jail, on
charge of carrying arms, but upon
showing papers representing British
protection he was immediately re-
leased, While Americans were thrust
into prison. He states that many
Americana have been killed and In
general their bodies bad been con-
cealed by being thrown over preci-
pices or into places where they would
not attract attention. Hcs asserts
that he assisted in the burial of two
men who were murdered near his
place, and whose bodies had been
hacked and slashed until unrecog-
nizable."
Investigation revealed the fact
that Walker is not known in Tor-
reon either to the mining men of thS
vicinity or to any of the dozens of
Americans who have been Interview-
ed on the subject. The consensus of
opinion is that the man Is either an
imposter, without'wjlpor la insane.
During the past sixtfUglftys only one
American has been placed under at-
test in Torreon and the case of this
cne, as is shown ia an interview
which follows, was of S nature that
created no sympathy. Torrein was
never attacked by the rioters who
visited Gomez Palacio<nor have tha
seditious bands had any time to bunt
out Americana for slaughter, being
busily occupied in thei* flights from
justice. On the contrary, as was
shoftn in articles previously publish-
ed. caution which was really remar-
kable under the circumstances was
taken to prevent harm from befall-
ing all foreigners, especially Ameri-
can citizens. This was noted not
only in the acts of the aelf-atyled rev-
olutionists, but on the part of the
city officials who took extraordinary
precautions to prevent even the few
careless Americans in the commu-
nity from falling In harm'a way. Ev-
en in the parade of the cargadores
on Inauguration day the cry of
"Vivan los extranjeros,"-"Long live
the foreigners" greeted groups of
Americans along the line of march.
A special to the San Antonio Ex-
press from Washington nays:
Washington, D. O.. Nov. 36.—Rep-
resentative Henry has recaived a let-
ter from Fred p. Hamiil, mayor of
Temple, Texaa, calling his attention
to an Important state of affaire in
the Republic of Mexico.
Mayor Hamiil encloses a clipping
from a newspaper to the effect that
in the city of Torreon and other Mex-
ican cities American ciUtens are not
receiving the protection that should
be accorded them by our representa-
tives and further that they are com-
pelled to claim English citizenship.
The clipping states that American*
are imprisoned ea petty oharges and
American consuls fall to afford them
any relief.
Representative Henry deemed this
matter of so much importance snd as
coming from such a reliable source,
that he aubmitted it t» the state de-
partment, calling their attention to
the same and asking that it be duly
considered.
George C. Carothers, American con-
sular agent, who has been in the ser-
vice In Torreon for eleven years, re-
plying to the charge, said:
"I have Just returned from the Pre-
aidencia, and find that duriag the
past sixty days they have record of
only one man, who has been arrested
and be U an old inmate He prac-
tically makes his home In the jail,
as he Is drunk ail the time. In my
opinion, the man Walker, who gave
the Interview, was an imposter or
cra_y. Ij there ia a city In this re-
public that ia free from trouble with
Americans, It is Torreon. During the
past ten years there have been two
cases that have attracted any atten-
tion, one of them was settled to the
satisfaction of ail concerned and the
other is still pending. I have lived
her* for fourteen yean and hare »•»-
| er heard of Walker or his copper
mine. As a matter of fact, the au-
thorities here have always treated
Americans with the greatest leniency
in the faw "drunk and disorderly
cases that ariae, giving lighter sent-
ences and fines than would be as-
sessed in our own country. There Is
a class of Americans who come to this
country thinking that they can di
anything they like, irrespective of
the laws, and the fact that they are
Americans would protect them and
keep them out of trouble. When one
of this class returns to the United
States he immediately seeks a news-
paper, liking to see his name in
print and gives an interview, revel-
ing in the temporary notoriety that
it givej him."
A WISE DECISION.
At the meeting of the foreign res-
idents of this city, which was held
at the Ayuntamlento Monday night
to take measures against any pos-
sible outbreak menacing lite and
property, certain proposals of a very
important character were consider-
ed by the meeting.
Juan Terrazas, chairman of the
meeting, presented a paper which
the foreign residents were asked to
sign, pledging themselves practically
to form a company which would hold
itself in readiness to bear arms
against invasion of the city.
When asked If the Invaders were
bandits or revolutionists, Mr. Ter-
razas answered that he feared they
would have to be, classed as revolu-
tionists. It was tAen declared by tbe
spokesmen of the foreign colonies
present at the meeting that they
would not take any sides in any con-
flict that might arise under these
conditions. It Is said that Governor
Sanchez made the same answer to
similar query when interviewed by
one of the foreign consuls.
This decision of the foreign resi-
dents would appear was dictated by
good judgment and a knowledge of
the duty of neutrals.
A question of this character Is re-
duced to observing the laws of neu-
trality existing among all civilize^
nations. When two political factions
in a country are engaged In open war
foreign residents must exercise care
in remaining neutral and must not
espouse the cause of one party or the
other.
It is well understood that the safe-
ty of the lives of ail foreigners as
well as their property Is Incumbent
on the recognized government of the
country Wherein they reside.
During tbe recent successful rev-
olution in Portugal all the foreign
residents of Lisbon, Oporto and other
cities observed strict neutrality, not-
withstanding the grave dangers In-
cident to those great popular con-
vulsions, and we have not been able
to learn of & single violation of the
rights of such alien residents.
All foreigners owe a certain obe-
dience here to the Mexican authori-
ties who represent the executive pow-
er of the laws under which we live
and who have the power to call on
all residents to render proper assist-
ance In putting down any manifesta-
tions of outlawry. But this obe-
dience does not extend to the matter
of taking up arms in defense of the
government against a de facto revo-
lution.
The originators of the present dis-
turbances are evidently part of a
widespread movement, political in
character and they can not be class-
ed as outlaws.
It Is to be considered, too, that rev
olutlonlsta, if successful, would he
gufded by their own Interests suffi-
ciently to avoid violating the laws of
neutrality and bringing upon them-
selves the vengeance of powerful
governments.—The Chihuahua En
terprlse.
