All of the whiskey people are
deploring any further agitation
on the whiskey question In
that they are particularly con-
sistent There never wasa time
in the world when the evil forces
of society wanted any agitation
concerning what they were do
ing In the olden days the devil
greatly deplored the fact that
Jesus had come to disturbe them
before the time The jtime to
agitate evil never comes with
the friends ofeyjlr >
It is noteworthy that the same
papers which are now deploring
further agitation on a great mor-
al issue are perfectly willing to
agitate on at any length over
personal issues in politics One
of the outstanding facts concern
ing the recent campaign is that
for once the people were largely
lifted above personal politics and
rallied to a great moral issue It
must be apparent to every one
that one of the efforts of the re
cent campaign was to move the
people away from pesky person-
alities in politics a thing greatly
to be desired
Another result which is
worthy of deep consideration on
the part of all good people is the
fact that the negro vote was car-
ried overwhelmingly for the sal-
oons It is coming out more
and more the specious and lying
devices employed to deceive the
negroes The white people may
get a great and important lesson
spelt large for them in the pres-
ent situation as it has now de-
veloped and is developing more
and more under the investiga-
tion going on in Austin It is
perfectly clear that agents
were sent out to secretly fix the
negro vote by telling them all
manner of falsehoods concerning
prohibition and the intentions
of the prohibitionists It is
equally certain that not a few
white people were hoodwinked
by adroit gumshoe whiskey
agents telling one man this was
armovementfto down Joe Bailey
and another it was a movement
to boost Joe Bailey and on and
on in the same way The lesson
is that we must carry forward
the work of education in which
we have been engaged for years
We must carry it forward
among the negroes and among
the white people warning them
against the insidious villanies
which have misled them in the
pastOnce
Once when there was a great
prohibiton campaign in Hines
County Mississippi in which
Jackson the capitol is located
at a great rally Professor Ensley
of Alcorn University an educa
ted negro made this statement
and appeal to the white people

The city authorities of Amster-
dam are considering a plan by
which street rubbish may be
converted into combustible bri
quets for heating boilers
saloon men and bad element un-
til you want them in a great mor
al campaign like this and then
you expect them to rise to the
same moral level as yourselves
It was a great statement of truth
which ought to go home to us in
Texas People are always pun-
ished for neglecting their duty
It is not worth while for the
white people now to expend any
great amount of temper and
time abusing the negro Many
of them did deplorably Their
religious leaders in the main did
heroically If a majority of the
negroes did wretchedly it is not
worth while for us to expend our
indignation on them but rather
on the men who concocted the
villanies manufactured lies and
furnished the money to buy the
negroes There is not in Texas
today a negro who is as contemp
tible and dangeroes and mean to
the commonwealth as the white
men who will corrupt the negro
with whiskey and buy his vote
to perpetuate the saloon rule in
this state Let us turn the edge
of the sword on the main trai-
tors to a higher civilization It
think
ing person to have any respect
ior menwho will furnish money
and whiskey and lies to mislead
the ignorant and weak and low
in the interest of barrooms
And this lesson may enfore
upon us another lesson closely
related to it We are in this
country with negroes It is no
use to say that they did not
bring themselves here Thej
American negroes have been and
are now and will be hereafter j
very much what the white peo-
ple make them We cannot
separate our interests from
theirs nor can we separate our
interests from the interests of
any other class We live in
cities together in neighborhoods

straight inHhffface and meet it
like the AngeleSaxon race has
met every great issue
Buttherels still another lesson
which is important to the whole
country Itisgdod that It is
undergoing illuminating and in-
vestigations in Austin The
methods of corrupting the bal-
lot in this State make a paradise
for the saloon crlft and other
politicians Whatwewant now
is to get out of tha election all
that can be had for the better
ment of the state One great
thing to be done is to safeguard
the ballot Mississippi settled
this great matter years ago and
Texas can sejtle it No man
who cannot real his ballot can
really vote Somebody can vote
him but ignorjnee cannot vote
Staatesmanshib in Texas has
lost all of its wis if it cannot de-
vise a method jy which the in-
telligent and oral element of
this state can wle through the
ballot As lon as a brewer can
buy an indefinie number of poll

will of the brefer or to be given
out to men wh < can be corrup-
ted to do the vill of the liquor
interest just t at long will the
foundation of iivil government
of Texas will je in the mud
Out of the eleqion and out of
the investigatio certainly should
come a greaj movement for
better politics jn Texas
It is for moie pleasant to turn

To Ambitious Youn Men and

I have a message for those
whohavea desire to improve
their condition sby increasing
their efficiency
Therewas never so great a
demand for firstclass office men

mand is greater than the supply

the position but they are from
those who cant make good the
world is full of such people what

of schools teaching these things
yet quite a per cent of the gradu-
ates from most of these schools
are jokes havent the ability to
hold a position when they leave
school
Since the Marshall Business
College is a select school work-
ing for quality instead of quan-
tity we limit the number of pu-
pils and give personal attention
to each of them and get them
fit to hold a position on leaving
schoolthere is no necessity of go-
ing into an office without payjust
to get practiceour record is that
every graduate of this school
has gone from the college to an
office position and made good
from the first day and got pay
for their work too
We teach stenographic stu-
dents to spell and paragraph cor-
rectly we employ a special tea-
cher for this and our system is
easy to learn
It is our ambition to make as
thorough graduates of each of
our students as possible and we
spare nothing in doing so the
result is our graduates are of a
higher grade than the average
business school and for this rea-
son are always in demand by the

I will always use Hunts Cure for
itching trouble and I tell all I sec
about it I could shout now to know
that we are all well of that dreadful
trouble The first of last fall my little
boy broke out with some kind of itch-
ing trouble Thinking his blood was
bad I gave him a blood tonic but he
got worse and could not sleep at night
Some
said he had itch and told me
what was good for it I used what
people said would cure it but nothing
did any good My other two children
and myself took the disease from him
in January 1911 I saw Hunts Cure
advertised and I purchased a 50c box
It helped my little boy bo much I got a
box for each one of the family and
now we are all well of that awful trou
ble Hunts Cure will cure itch in a
Bhort time if you will go by directions
we had it in its worst form and nsed

OF
TEXAS AND NATION
MAKING WAR ON FLY
With pne and a quarter mil
lion flies killed in a short cam-
paign in San Antonio Texas six
millions slain in a two weeks
contest in the National capital
and ten barrels of them put to
death by children struggling for
a prize in Worcester Mass the
slogan of Swat the fly I is no
longer to be taken as a mere
pleasantry
These are only isolated cases
The whqletNation is engaged in
a mighty effort to rid the coun
try of what was only a few years

alone in the determination to de-
stroy the insect Canada is
moving as vigorouly against the
common enemy and in England
a general movement to render
the enemy extinct is well under-
way
All this intense activity di
rected toward the destruction
of the musa domestica is due to
the discovery that the fly the
common house fiy once treated
almost as a pet is one of the
most deadly of all menaces to
the human race It is the great-
est passenger carrying biplane
known to man With its wings
buzzing like a runaway electric
fan it can and does carry on its
long and hairy legs millions of
germs of wasting and fatal dis
ease including according to a
list issued by the United States
Department of Agriculture ty-
phoid Asiatic cholera tubercu
losis and small pox and to this
list some of the leading physi-
cians are adding infantile paraly-
sis
The logic of the theory that
the accusers of the fly are urg-
ing upon the public is irresisti-
ble They point out that the fly
is the most democratic of in-
sects It is no respecter of per-
sons things or places Born
and bred in the foulest and most
loathsome of places it is ready
as soon as its tiny wings will
bear its tiny weight to hasten to
the home or hotel or eating place
ofthoJaire < ifejmdnoblesfc and
there leave its messenger of dis
ease and death There can be
no compromise with the insect
If admitted no matter how
slightly it unloads its pestilen-
tial burden It takes but a touch
less than a moment for it to
leave the summons of the tomb
Today the attitude of the whole
world is well represnted by the
State Board of Health of Florida
which under the direction of Dr
Joseph Y Porter Secretary and
Health Officer has printed in red
ink on a muslin poster twelve
inches wide and eighteen inches
long a warning to all and sun-
dry that flies are disease carriers
a deadlyf danger to young and
old the sick and well and fol-
lows this with instructions as to
the best methods of preventing
their ravages Sketches in
black around the red warning
show how the flies gather the
germs and distribute them
The American Civic League
Association has issued 100000
copies of a pamphlat entitled
Kill Flies and Save Lives
Another method is the publica-
tion and issuance of postcards
the kind which give out their
message only when rubbed with
a coin or pencil On one called
The Writing on the Wall a
dainty paper design changes to
a flyspecked wall with the word
Contagious Another with
the legend Reasons why you
should kill every fly illustrates
the flys progress from the dust-
bin to the sick room A third
named The Murderous Fly
bears the picture of a baby in
the clutches of an insect as large
as itself The warning on this
card reads A fly in the milk
may mean a baby in the grave
Yet after all it is the general
conclusion that the fly is more
the sign of menacing conditions
than a menace in itself Dr
G Gordon Hewitt Dominion
Entomologist declares house-
flies indicate the presence of re-
fuse garbage and other unsani-
tary conditions The house fly
is useful therefore because it is
of the greatest use as a danger
signal as a red flag
John B Smith the New Jer-
sey entomologist says the swat
the fly campaign should be di-
rected not so mcuh against the
fly as against the conditions
that require the fly as a natural
scavenger

JEFFERSON PUBLIC SCHOOLS
C G TRTHTT SUPERINTENDENT
Interest Depends Upon Regular
Attendance
t
School opens September 11th
Every pupil should endeavor to
be present the first day and at-
tend regular throughout the
term Nothing Mils interest in
school work quicker than irre
gular attendance
The school is maintained not
for the benefit of the future but
for the present Education is
for the now as well as for the
hereafteri If the boy and girl
afford to attend school at all
should regularly
gular attendance not only hinders
progress in education but tends
to form habits of irregularity
which will interfere with pro-
gress in any line of work under-
taken
Objection to Short Course Schools
The objection to many of the
the socalled colleges is that they
have no standards of admission
anyone can enter at any-
time complete a course and be
gurranteed a position in a given
number of weeks or months
Every standard institution has
certain entrance requirements
The high school requires a cer-
tificate of graduation from the
grammar school and the unive
sity demands evidence of gradua-
tion from an approved high
school 14 units in Texas but
the getthroughquick schools
require nothing but the tuition
in advance
Education cannot be obtained
in a few weeks or months no
more than a child can grow to
manhood in a few weeks or
months Education is a growth
a systematic development of all
the powers and capabilities men-
tal moral and physical Hence
to know the mechanical opera-
tions of a typwriter or to keep a
set of books good as they may-
be per set is not an education
because it is partial development
or a lopsided education to say
the least The aim and end of
an education should not be to
get a dollar per day nor to es-
cape work the educated man
should earn more than a dollar
a day and his labor should have
less of the drudgery in it but
the real purpose of an education
should be allround development
so that one may act well his part
wherever his lot may be cast
It Pays to Go to School
If an uneducated man earns
150 a day for 300 days in a year
he does very well and if he keeps
it up for forty years he will earn
150x300x40 or 18000 An
educated man is not generally
paid by the day but by the
month and by the yeai If you
will strike an average of the
earnings of educated men be-
ginning with the president of
the United States who earns
50000 a year and run down the
scale until you come to the lower
walks in point of earnings among
educated men you will admit
that 1000 a year is a low aver-
age for the earnings of educated
labor For forty years you have
40000 as the earnings of an
educated man Subtract 18000
from 40000 and the difference
or 22000 must represent the
value of a boys time spent in
school getting an education
You will admit that a man who
works with his handb at un-
skilled labor puts forth as much 1
muscular effort as a man who
earns a livlihood by his wits and
education Now if 22000 rep-
resents the value of time a boy
spends at school getting an edu-
cation what is the value of a J
day spent at school
The average school life of ev-
ery boy and girl in Missouri is
less than eight years of 175 days
each let us say that it takes four
more at 200 days you will find
that the 2200 days at school are
equal to 22000 and a simple
division will bring it home to the
comprenension of every school-
boy that each day at school prop-
erly spent must be worth 10
Forced to Leave Home
Every year a large number of poor
sufierers whose lungs are sore and
