CONGRESSIONAL, LOST MOTION.
Speaker Clark hotly resents the ehaiye that
congress is loafing. He declares that it is an
industrious, energetic, highly capable body, pro-
ceeding with its business with dispatch.
Mechanics have a term which fits the case of
congress exactly. There’s too much “lost mo-
tion” about it. Speeches are too long. Debates
are stretched out to interminable lengths. The
number of bills introduced are out of all propor-
tion to the bills passed, showing that it was
never intended many bills should or could be-
come laws. The official chronicle of the1 sessions
is the most tiresome thing that was ever set in
type.
If talk represents industry, then congress has
no parellel short of some of those newly devised
gas engines of high horsepower. If work is to
be measured bv the amount of printing matter
given over to it, congressmen can put Thomas
A. Edison to shame.
The speaker hears men bellowing and thun-
dering. He beholds them waving their arm
and breaking out in perspiration. To him that
is work. And it is work, of a sort. Rut so also
is “lost motion.”
What the country wants and thinks that by
rights it should have is a congress which will
not waste time or money in producing legisla-
tion and will not try to make people think speech-
making. squabbling over parliamentary points
and filling books with unreadable print are the
same as performance.
A hopeful sign of spring is that winter itch
is about to lose its hold on mankind
Alwmt all one can make of the news from
El Paso and other border towns is that a Mexican
is a Mexican today, tomorrow and forever.
A concrete sidewalk to the hospital would
be very nice and it should be built. Rut it takes
money. Are you willing to help pay the bill?
The Favorite has been advocating a good road
from Cedar street to the hospital. We all admit
that it is badly needed and should be built. It
takes money to do such work and there is only
two ways by which the necessary funds can be
secur'd. One of them is to vote bonds and the
other is private subscriptions. Which route do
you prefer?

We have no desire to become a plutocrat.
We do not want to be pointed out as a bloated
bondholder. Rut we would like to be in posi-
tion to look a few bill collectors in the eye
and tell them to go hence.—Mineral Wells
Index.
It will be necessary for you to quit the news-
paper game and seek a livelihood along other lines
in order to achieve your heart’s desire. For in-
stance. try peanut culture.
According to the New York World Governor
(). R. Colquit is making a strong bid for the
German-American vote in Ins race for the
United States senate and it is intimated that
Mr. Colquitt is in a plot to try to defeat Presi-
dent Wilson for a second term.—Emus Daily
News.
Oscar Colquitt stands about the same show
of going to the United States senate as does thej
Presiding Elder of the Favorite.
The Ilam-Kamsey revival at Cleburne re-
sulted in t>7i> conversions, continued for six
weeks, cost $(1,000 and all the pastors but
one. signed an agreement to exclude members
who persist in dancing and card playing, and
not to accept for membership one excluded
from another church for either of these rea-
sons.-- Ennis Daily News.
That must have been some mectin'. Should j
the pastors of Honham sign such a pledge it
might prove embarrassing to some of their mcm-|
hers.
HEATH Ol’ JUMPS WHITE.
I»ei«lh hits claimed (he life of Julius
Hcer, the eleven-year old (litughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Will Pick White, of
Deniiton, the meHsenger coming to the
home and demanding her as his yea.
terduy just about noon, for days the
family and anxious friends watched
by the side of the little sufferer, hop-
ing against hope. All that physiciuiut
could do wa. done. Everything that
neighbors and skillful nursing was
acquainted with was resorted to to at
least i;llev>ule her suffering, but it
was no use, ns the summons had came
and the spirit of the child has gone to
Him who has so beautifully said, “Suf-
fer little children to cone unto ine.”
The sorrowing family has the sympa-
thy of a host of Itonham friends.
The remains were laid ( > rest thw
afternoon at Denison a large num-
ber of peonle from this city attend-
ing the funeial and burial services.
