WORDS THAT BURN*
When Theodore Roos-
e velLpre sident of the Uni-
te d States, denounced
Charles Moyer, William
Haywood and George
Pettibone as murderers,
he uttered a lie as black
and damnable, a calumny
as foul and atrocious as
ever issued from a hu-
man throat* The men
he thus traduced and vil-
ified, sitting in their
prison cells for having
dutifully served their fel-
low-workers and having
spurned the bribes of
their masters, transcend
immeasurably the man
in the white house, who,
with the cruel malevo-
lence of a barbarian, has
pronounced their doom*

Married in Kansas City.
Miss Huldah Matlock, well
known in this city, was married in
Kansas City last Thursday to Mr.
Leonard Green, and the happy
couple—of course they’re happy-
left immediately for Utah, where
they will hereafter reside. In this
connection, we would'remark, par-
enthetically, that we have fallen
heir to the phone number formerly
used by the Misses Matlock, both
of whom have been married in the
last six months, and, while it
seemed lucky for them, we can’t
say it has proven so for us. So we
are endeavoring to exchange that
number (“13”) with one of our
lovliest and most accommodating
la^y friends, and we -hope to suc-
ceed—not that we desire to lose
her, but we want the “hoodoo'’ re-
moved from us. .
Singular Coincidence.
W. G. Montgomery united Mr.
E. Walshe and Miss Ida Belle
Clarke in. marriage last night at
the residence of Mrs. J. E- Mitchell
in this city. Both parties were
from Temple.
The above words are from the A singular feature about this is
pen of Eugene V. Debs, one of the j the fact that that is thesecond lady
grandest men in America, and refer i by that name we ever heard of—the
of
to the case of the three union men
kidnapped in Denver 14 months
ago and by an “unholy conspiracy’’
between the Governors of Colorado
and Idaho and the mine owners
association and a few other capital-
istic concerns that own—or at least
control, the state of Colorado—tak-
en forcibly from their families and
their homes and incarcerated in a
foul prison contrary to all law and
the constitution of the United

of Alabama,marrying a Mr. Watson

mences with “W.”
to state that such an outrage was
never committed in a Southern or
a Democratic state, and such un-
just and treasonable statements as
Roosevelt uses were never spoken
by a Southern man or a Democratic
president or statesmen.
Roosevelt and the Republican
party are entitled to all the credit
(or discredit) of such damnable
practices and such unholy utter-
ances. ’Tis the same spirit that
existed in the breasts of those who
marched
“From Atlanta to the Sea,”
causing rivers of blood to flow j
through our unhappy Southland’
when Sherman’s army devastated
the country, murdering old men
and children and outraging respec-
table women.
“The mills of the Gods grind slowly,
But they grind exceedingly fine,”
and what a number,of sins the Re-
publican party and many of it offi-
cials must answer for in the “Great
Day” that is coming.
The Republican party has ever
sided with the classes—has gone
over, body, boots and breeches, to
the capitalists, who are fast making
the grandest country on top side of
earth a commercial country, where
the only insignia that is required
is this sign $!
Shades of the Immortal Jefferson
and Jackson! What are we com-
ing to?
Oh, for one more “old time”
Democratic administraiion,
was actually Democratic. But alas!
I fear that ne’er will be for the
Democratic leaders—alleged Dem-
ocratic leaders—in many respects
are so like
dined Republicans, that it’s hard
'to tell which are the worst in this
respect.
If the Democrats would nominate
and elect a president and congress-
man of the Debs order the people

M., acting as a representation of

ministration Building of Baylor Fe-
male College at Belton on Monday
afternoon, April 22. The officers

The Grand Lodge proceeded
in charge of the Grand Mar-

where, at 2:30 p. in., it performed
the ceremony of laying the Corner
Stone according to the JVIasonic
ritual, iu the presence of the Trus-
tees, faculty and students of the
College and a large concourse of
citizens of Belton, Temple, Salado,
Holland, Killeen and the surround-
ing country. "
At the conclusion of the Ma-
sonic ceremony, Miss Coleman, of
the Department of Expression,
read the Baylor Ode, composed by
Prof. E* H. Wells, of the College
faculty. It was enthusiastically
applauded by the audience. Then
followed the Bailor soug by the
college chorus and orchestra.
This song was written by the
revered Dr. J. H. Luther, former
president of Baylor College and the
music was composed by Prof. Her-
man J. Bal, and was cordially ap-
proved and applauded.
The audience then assembled in
the Chapel where a splendid ad-
dress was delivered by Dr. J. M.
, Frazier on the subject, “Belton
and Baylor College.” After some
beautiful songs by the college girls,
the celebration was adjourned till
8 p- in., when an able address was
delivered by Dr. S. P. Brooks,
President oj Baylor University.
The Corner Stone of the first
Baylor College building in Belton
was laid on April 21, 1886, just 21
years ago and for that reason San
Jacinto day was again selected, be-
ing the 21 st anniversary of the first
Corner Stone. As the 21 St fell
this year on Sunday it was neces-
sary to substitute Monday th&22nd.
