A pro-Russian view, by a Texas gentleman,, , , ,,

was given m the Dallas news one day last i ^ . . i . n
week. Ilis reason was the "yellow peril. "
Rather an old one but the only one
be given and it is no reason at all. Thej

right and wrong and m deeding it, nice and , ( m wMe wjl,

s.dered heathens it is true, but they have
rights the same as the christian of any race
This writer asserts that Russians are the
most deeply religious class of people of any
on earth, and this may be true from his view
point. But we think that depends largely on
what he may construe religion to be.
Evidently he is not a sympathizer of the
protestant religion and perhaps he may not
espouse any religion at all. Russia's crime
is the most heinous ever committed in inter-
national dealings during the world's history.
Her sympathizer's now plead in extenuation j
for her the prejudice of race as if that would j
mitigate the offense. If that were the only
there is in
the practice of medicine or law. Par e, as
! nearly as you can, everything vou need to
eat at home; be progressive, investigate, keep
tab on the market and calculate for the
I future. So long as the world stands and so
long as the farmer delves, prices will fluctu-
ome and go.
By exercising good judgment and discretion

a can ^ege c]ianges aiK| not be caught at a disad-
~ n v. i vantage with the ebbing and flowing of the
question resolves itself down to a Question ot |,., , ,, . r
./ I tide. For instance, when cotton is oc per

>p to depend on and when
potatoes are like they are now he will not
have the world planted in potatoes. We
have known farmers to spend enough money
on one big wheat crop (sown on public land)
by buying machinery, etc., to have purchas-
ed a good home. Some "called the turn,"
as the gambler would say, and made it pay
and others struck a bad wheat year and are
now renting land and betting their money,
so to speak, on getting rich on cotton. Such
i Uien will never prosper for the very good
reason—they don't deserve to.
And winged the shaft that quivered m his
heart.
Keen were his pangs, yet keener far to
feel,
He nursed the pinion that impelled the
steel,
And the same plumage that had warmed .
his nest
Drank the last life's drop from his bleed-
ing breast."
When a man who has a family locates per-
manently it is a duty he owes his family and
himself to establish a home as soon as possi-
ble. In his own home he is s-*. cure from the
annoyances and rebuffs that confront a ren-
ter. Moreover it identifier him as a citizen
of the town by reason of choice, and anchors
him to the soil by ties that are rendered
sacred because they bind with chords of love.
It enhances his reputation as ;w citizen and,
the best reason of all why he should own a
home is, because it is a money making and
money saving proposition t<> him. In al-
most any town a home can he built on the
installment plan and in ninety-nine towns
out of eVery one hundred the property is
never known to decrease in value'but, on
the contrary, the reverse is true, or at least
it is always worth its original cost. There-
fore, in either case it is a savings bank to
the investor and, if a boom should come, it
would place him on easy street with a com-
petency for the future assured. .It is the
part of wisdom to own a home and, if it is
wise to do so, it is incumbent upon every man
to not delay the matter but act at once.

Sym-

Uncle Sam to abandon the Phillipines, and

Hottman, who is now under sentence of
death for his part in the bloody drama. The
question of conviction on the evidence of an

and over it the pyrotechnics of the orators
played in reddest splendor. The jury cor-

The men who are engaged in potato raising
are up against it now as the price of the
potato crop is 20c per bushel f. o. b. This is
pretty hard'on our neighbors around Shaw-
nee. Owing to the heat of summer there is
no such thing as holding the "spuds" and

of the poet, in which the Eagle struck down
by the aid of a feather that dropped from his
own wing, suggest themselves:
"So the struck eagle stretched upon the
plain,
No more mid rolling clouds to soar again,
Views his own feather on the fatal dart,
The Moroccan situation that has loomed
up in the east threatens to be another war
cloud on the horizon. The feeling is general
in Europe that war is imminent between
France and Germany, but in America it is
not believed that a rupture will occur.
Thirty years have elapsed since the Franco-
Prussian war terminated and France vividly
remembers the bitter lesson she then learned.
The result of that war had a tendency to
take the fighting spirit—so fully developed
and inspired by Napoleon—out of the French
people. It is known that Emperor Wil-
liam's ambition to increase the greatness of
Germany is. almost boundless and that he is
willing and ready at any moment to take
advantage of any pretext to declare war on
the French. On the other hand France is
showing tact and diplomacy. If war re-
sults France will have the sympathy of the
peacemakers of the world.
The rain of Monday night is of incalcu-
lable value to farm products in the Washita
valley. The heavy rains of a few weeks
since had packed the ground until it was
like a cavalry yard in some places, making
cultivation extremely difficult and laborious.
The rain of this week has mellowed the soil,
given the crops an impulse and made the
farmer's face wear a grin that a grizzly
could not slap off.
the[closing of the eye, the rest and the
opening of it have been measured and the
time thus consumed amounts to 395,000ths
of a second. Think how swiftly intelligence
can be conveyed to the soda fountain clerk!
The dam that is now being constructed by
the government on the Salt river in Arizona
is said to be the largest in America. And
Salt river has had some pretty big damns
before now too.
