Texas cannot hope by hostility to
apilal to sea capital seeking the state
A manS money is as much entitled to
protection as is a mans farm op store
tnd money refuses to go where it is
eft without protection
In addition to its position as the cen
Vsr of almost everything else Fort
Worth is going to become the milling
enter of the Southwest The great
vheat fields of Texas lie northwest and
rest of us We will take their products
Bake Hour of them and feed the wholo
s the South and of South America
Verily the Lord is good to his children
THE Salvation Army is as free in
Texas as salvation itbelf is supposed to
Iw An Austin police court holds that
tho Salvationists can parade the streets
with drum and fife il they vraut to
without fracturing the laws That is
good sense If an advertising fake with
it brass band at the head may parade
nil otcr town why may not a religious
fnitc do the same thing
TilE financial remedy demanded is a
system that will take from Wall Street
the power to control the circulating
medium This demand lies at the bot-
tom of the subtreasury idea It affects
the views of Mr Harter and it inspires
Senator Norwoods plan The demand
is for a locil monev supply for no mat-
ter how many dollars per capita there
may be under the present system Wall
Street will gather them all in at last
which could not be if we had state
banks

the thouchL Waco Day
The UAZErrn urges a special session
because it is demanded by justice to
the Western hah of tho stale add be-
cause thousands of Texas people are
threatened with bankruptcy by the
operation of the Go = iott alien land
iw Tin Gazette believes that
cruel law will be amended by a special
Hssion because iis ruinous effect is
aow known The Gazette does not
believe the Twentysecond legislature
intended to wreck Texas
The people of Texas demand relief
from tho Gossett alien land law they
demand relief from the bankruptcy
and ruin wrought by it and that wil he
wrought by it The plea of suffering is
growing into the demand of despera-
tion Those who close their cars to
the cry will live to regret it Every-
day under tho law without tho hope of
relief through amendment is a day of
anxiety and of suffering Other stales
have recovered from the panic and
with good crops and cheap money are
forgetting the dark days of 1S0091
only Texas continues to suffer and to
find it difficult to get money for the
commonest needs Subtrcasuryites
may indorse tho Gossett law but time
ft ill demonstrate that tho majority of
Texas people do not and somebody
must answer with his political life for
the wrong done to Texas
Two Democratic stato conventions
r ore held in different states on Tues
ihi jnd put themselves on record as
kO tho silver question The ilassachus
cits Democrats voice thoir opposition
to the free and unlimited coinage of
tilver except after an international
Hgrcement as to its ratio to gold then
to make the silver dollar worth 100
cents in gold The Colorado Demo-
crats found it hard to put in language
their unappeasable desiie for free and
unlimited coinage at once As Gen
Hancock said of the tariff the silver
question is a local Nsite Colorado
s a silverproducing stale and the in
vivsts of itsgeople are allied with sil
cr and monofnll parties are for free
anu unlimited coinage to enlarge the
tu cr market and stimulate that in-
dustry Massachusetts is a creditor
stil whose people own bonds and
mortzagps Tho more silyer there is-
m the silver dollar the more they will
tet when the debtors pay their deots
TnE question of state banks of issue
is likely to receive more attention than
foe local financiers of Texas seem dis
> oed to accord it Mr Michael D
ilarter member of congress from Ohio
who for the last twentyfive years has
been a private banker as well as a
large mauufacturT and who there-
fore has studied these questions from
the point of view both of the borrower
a < d of the lender has for many years
been at work upon a plan which ho
now gives to the world as a solution of
both of these problems He would al-
low the present natioual banking sys-
tem to remain substituting for United
States bonds state municipal and rail-
road bonds of undoubted character and
he would so provide for the establish-
ment of stats banks alongside of na-
tional banks as to admit of the issue of
just such a volume of currency as the
business of tho country requires
M > Htirtor has contributed a full state-
ment of his plan to the October num-
ber of the Forum after having submit-
ted it to the criticism of a large num-
ber of tho best students of finance in
every part of the United States It is
a plan that will certainly arouse dis-
cussion from one end of the country to
the other and one that its friends con-
fidently expect > vi sooner or later be
adopted

THE GAZETTEFT WOBTH TEXAS THUBSDAY OCTOBER 8
WHO DKMVNUED IT T
The laws of Texas have for three or
four years forbidden the acquisi-
tion by corporations of more land
than was needed for the car-
rying on of such manufactur-
ing or other business of like nature as
they may desire to engage in The leg-
islature sought last winter to include
aliens among those prohibited from
owning and holding land But in doing
so it went unconsciously too far and
enacted a law that not only shut out
aliens but excluded foreign money
seeking investment here not in land
but in the multiplied forms of industry
upon whose development tho material
welfare and growth of the state depend
There are some who never dreaming
before its enactment that such a law
was desirable are now defending it as
wise and wholesome It is impossible
to see how any fairminded man can
hold such an opinion What was the
thing desired by tho people and aimed
at by the legislature The prohibition
of alien ownership That and nothing
else Nobody had ever asked no party
platform had over demanded that
foreign money should bo banished and
excluded from the state If they had
done so their demands would have
been ridiculed and lampooned as the
drivolings of fanaticism
Had the law stopped where it should
have done that is with the inhibition
of alien ownership all hands would be
be satisfied and not a man would have
thought of the failure to add a clause
excluding foreign money The de
fenso of that absuruity is wholly an
afterthought and anything but credit-
able to the strength of mind and con-
servatism that espouse it Texas
needs money She does not need alien
ownership She could easily have put
away the latter without turning away
tho former also Cutting off ones nose
to spite his face is a proverbially poor
business and that is what Texas has
done Let the mistake bo corrected at
the earliest opportunity and tho ban
removed from foreign investments and
foreign money Unless that is done
thousands of the best men in tho state
must go and are going to the wall
> OT roll TEXAS
If there was no need in Texas for
money to construct railroads build
factories open mines and otherwise
develop a new country there might be
some excuse for those who seek to
erect a Chinese wall around the state
Money at and 5 per cent per month
develops nothing cheap money is re-
quired to do thosj things which are so
needed in Texas Tho western half of
the state needs railroads all tho state
needs factories Llano and Now Bir-
mingham need money to develop their
mineral resources The cry in Texas
is for mora railroads and more factor-
ies and the legislation of Texas is to
drive out of the state the money needed
to answer the demands of the state
Other sections of the Union are re-
covering from the great panic of 1S00
91 Money at G per cent can be had in
Western states while Texas people
merchants and farmers suffer from in-
ability to borrow money at double tho
price But for the Gossett alien iand
law numerous failures in Texas would
not have occurred but for the Gossett
alien land law thousands of Texas
people would not now face bankruptcy
and sharks would not bo biding their
time to pick up tho property sacri-
ficed because money was driven from
the state by Texas legislation The
following letter will show tho effect of
tho Gossett law how money that was
turning to Texas was diverted to other
states whose people preferred cheap
money to that loaned at from 2 to 3 per-
cent per month Never in the history
of state legislation was such a crime
committed against a state and its peo-
ple as that known as the Gossett alien
land law of Texas

Dear Sin Wc thank you for the services
you have so satisfactorily rendered us in
connection with our real estate investments
in j our state As wc find your legislature
has decided against allowing aliens send
their capital into Tcvas atramst real estata
securities we shall have to turn our atten-
tion to other parts of your great eouutry
and to avail ourselves of your cooperation
in securing the realization of the invest-
ments in Texas in which our clients and
ourselves have placed capital As so many
new states are anxious to daveloo their re-
sources wo havo had in London tho last
year or two far more American applica-
tions for capital than it has been possible to
satisfy even thoueh the offers mitrlit bo
sound and profitable We had looked upon
Texas as a very promising state since she
had secured ilic attention of outside capi-
talists who were increasing her resources
somewhat too rapidly for themselves inas-
much as they wero bringing down rates of
jntercsL
Wo gather that your legislature only
meets once in tvo years and by that timo
tho danger of Texas real estate investments
will havo acquired such a hold of friendly
alien capitalists that even if tho law were
then repealed it would tako considerable
time to remove tho suspicions and doubts
which would prevail while tho flowof capi-
tal would have become more or less fixed in
other directions
One of our partners is paying the usual
annual visit to your state and we may still
continuo this until all our securities are
realized and capital recovered We ara
yours faithfully

A > EISA OK PROGRESS
The strides that democratic feeling
is making in England is hardly under-
stood until some event occurs such as
tho holding of the great congress of
Liberalists at Newcastle or the ex-
posure of royal profligacy in the bac-
carat trial The divine right of
kings is scoffed at by workingmen in
blouses The nobility are criticised
and condemned by the same standard
of judgment that is put to the case of
men and women of plebeian blood The
hereditary house of lords is complained
of as a clog upon progress and a worse
than useless part of the scheme of gov-
ernment
One of the loudest applauded utter-
ances made in tho Newcastle congress
a body of 8000 delegates representing
3000000 citizens of voting age was
that directed against the bouse of lords
Sir Wilfrid Lawson a publicist whose
reputation has gono far beyond the
British Isles declared that there was
no use to try mending the house of
lords relief from the abuses that
sprang from it could come only by its
abolishment
With tho ancient and hereditary bul-
warks of patrician power swept away by
the beating waves o popular discon-
tent there would be but little to com-
plain of in the kingly figurehead that
wears the crown The rule of the peo-
ple would be far more absolute than
when the Commonwealth flourished
under Cromwell without the name or
appearance of royalty
The proposition to pay members of
parliament a salary of 300 a year
about S1500 was another display of
feeling from tho commonalty showing
that the great middle class has the bits
between its teeth Members of parlia-
ment get no pay Only those men
therefore who are so fortunate as to
have incomes from invested capital can
take part in national legislation The
poor man who depends upon the earn-
ings of his labor for a living is barred
for so scon as he enters parliament his
source of livelihood is cut off and he is
loft without the means of living A
salary of 1500 a year is small enough
hut ifcwill enable an economical patriot
to live aud that seems to be all that
they are asking for
Tho signs are that the Twentieth
century will dawn upon a republic
directing the destinies of that nation
that has acknowledge the sway of the
Plantagenets the Tudors the Stuarts
and the Guelphs a republic that in
very truth rules by divine right for
the voice of the people is the voice of
God

But the fact remains that the women out-

Wo do not care to hazard > a guess as to

numbers are growing fewer while the
women are growing in number and beauty
This is a plain fact Let the cranks explain
it if they can One of tho ancient prophets
foretells a time when seven women shall
take hold of ons man and declare their
willingiiess to earn their own livelihood
and his if only they may be called hy his
name The world may be coming to that
