For the Light ] ROOSEVELTS NOMINATION. A common topic of discussion on our streets for some months past has been tte probiMlity of the present president being, nominated to succeed himself by TtiF next National Republican conven tion. The Democrats unanimously doubted its possibility, with the sincere sympathy and accord of those Republi cans, w)w bad tailed U> receive prosiden tml invitations to the pie-counter. In Imv*Ii instances no doubt the wish was father to the thought. But the action of the Republicans of the five great states of Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Kansas, Missouri and Ne braska in their respective state conven tions. in declaring in their platforms for the nomination of President Roosevelt, must put at rest all doubt as to who will be the standard bearer of tlie Republi can party in the next presidential elec tion. An then to add to the discomfiture of the despairing Democrats and the aforementioned disgruntled Republicans conies this prophetic announcement from Senator Matt Quay, of Pennsylvania, the master political leader of the day: "ff I wished to make a prediction that would add to my reputation as a poli tical prophet. I would, in the strongest language at m,y command, say that the next Repumicnn national convention will nolainnf* foriPresidesiLthe present Pros idrin,' Theodore RotricvMt, uHantmetis iy-’’ All of this tends to make the aspect of the political future so plain that he who Him may read. A strong Presi dent is neejlcd by a great country in mon’cnts nt national importance and the “strenuous life” of Theodore Roosevelt has well qualified Iritn to continue in control of our national affairs. GEO. O. MOFFET. A PALPABLE INJUSTICE. The Orange Tribune would lead its i*adei* .to Iwlitue that laud Salishury has resigned the premiership of Great Britain owing to difference with King Edward. . Never was a position more false or nntenablc. Fqr some ye*dk I gird Salisbury desired to resign Imt neither Queen ’ Vietorm nor his parly would admit of it When sick and when bereaved by his wife’s death he asked fo retire and the same answer (was given, but it was arranged that when the Anglo-Boer war was closed he should be permitted to retire and he has done so. That he enjoyed the confidence and sup port of Queen Victoria and of King Ed ward is a faet nnd that the people sus tained hint is equally true but old, be reaved, broken in health and surfeited with honors, after many years faithful and efficient service to his <-ountry, he wanted rest and has taken it. That is the truth and when the Orange Tribune says otherwise it does an injustice to all concerned, though the Light does not be lieve that it has any intention of so do inR" . - ♦ BETRAYED HIM. : —I • LTiis tr.orning some of the employes at t he "Mowery depot bn C ameron street, near West Houston, saw a Mexican cau tintiely enter -the high weeds nearby and hide something among the weeds.

The four.- dat ion stone was laid with Masonic hon <rs an<" with the general applause of the citizens. For years our Jewish ciU vens hare aimed to have a tetnpla worthy df their God and a credit to ihe children of Israel and now the hope is attained. The Jews deserve the credit for ent«nwi-c and liberality and for the pniethwl cxh’bltion of their faith. May their new venture meet with all pos sible success. ANOTHER GRANDSON!

IN THE PHILISTINE. Civilization is an evolution. Civilization is not a thing separate and apart, any more than art is. Art is the beautiful way of doing thing*. 1 ( And as haste is often waste—the more hurry the les* speed—civiliza tion i» the best way of doing things. As mankind multiplies in number, the problem of supplying people what they need is the important question pt earth. And. mankind has ever held out offers of reward in fame and money—both being forms of power —to whomsoever would supply it bet ter thing* Teachers and those who educate people to appreciate the things they need. The man who studies mankind, and ascertains what men really want, and then supplies them this, whether It lie an idea or thing, fs the man who is crowned With honor and clothed with riches. What people need and what they think they need, but what they do not want, may be very different. To undertake to supply people a thing you want, to have your head elevated on a pike, and your bones buried In the potters’ field. "When a man acts as he believes the Infinite within him would have h(;n act, he draws power to himself from unseen sources that power tnav be shown in many ways. Things work smoothe, plans carry out. people be gin to say lucky, 'he’s a winner,’ etc.” Ever try it? If you ever do you will agree that it is the greatest proposi tion on earth. There is a marvelous potency be hind the man who acts in a simple, straightforward way. as near as he knows. in accordance with the promptings of that invisible deity within. MOTHER ALWAYS KEEPS IT HANDY "My mother suffered a long time from distressing pains and general ill health due primarily to indigeiiian.” says I* W.

His bounty was ndt appreciated. until his wealth of real estate was well nigh ex hausted.

Thousands are waiting to malt irHo Rosebur. not long aiuee st a fliacount, is now at a premium;! jfi , James X.lftli recently remarked that land witlimU*JS»pukti<iii is a wilderness and without land a mob. Un cle Sam will in tlie future be troubled by a surplus of' hot h, for in the M est aie large areas that in the nature ot of things cannot support human life, while the rapid increase of population in the EMf is slowly but surely bringing about that state of congestion respon sible for the perpetual presence of mobs in Europe.

THE BOHR LOSS? ‘ A dispatch from Pretoria to tbe (Mon terey Nyws says: ‘•'Uwrding to an estimate of thp Red Cross identity de|s»t, which fulfilled the functiojH of a casualty bureau for the Boer forces, the total loss of the latter during the war wore &7(N* men killed or| died nf wounds nnd 32.090 made prison ers of war. of w hom Too died. The Boer force* in the field numbered about 75.000. This is authentic and shows that dis pite tlie disadvantage of the British in many ways the Boor loss proportionately is remarkably heavy and their position all the more untenable. THAT’S JUST IT. Tlie Fort Worth Mail-Telegram wisely says: "Capital is as necessary for the proper development of natural resources and the remuneration of labor as labor is for the proper use of capital. One can not exist independently of the other. There is a vast difference between a cor poration, in the ordinary sense of the term, and a corporate monopoly, com monly known as a trust.” This is a fact. Capital and labor have equal rights and any infringement on cither will meet with condign punish ment. THE SCORE TOO HIGH. The Sherman Democrat savs: “The two penitentiaries now have 3,(8*4 convicts to look after. Tlie pris oners are not all at the Rusk and Hunts ville prisons by any means. Only a lit tle inure than 1,000 are inside the walls. The balance are working on contracts and at the state farms.” Considering the laxity of the law -or rather the administration of it —Texas has ter too ninny convicted criminal* for its population. A GALLANT AMERICAN The press dispatches report of the Or nuiml street children's hospital bazaar says among other things: "The queen dropped a handkerchief while going the rounds of tlie stalls. The handkerchief was picked up by an Amer ican gentleman, who kissed it, and then on partly bended knee handed it to her She graciously told him to re tain it. The American ladies and gen ■tiemen present were all greatly moved by her majesty’s condescension and gra cious manner.” . Americans abroad will "render unto Caesar the things that are Caesars” and have a sense of gallantry that is the at tribute of manhiMKl. Yet you will find that this incident will be ridiculed by tho Anglophobists. “Surprise is expressed here at the eom nlaint by a legal representative of the ■United States,th at vexatious delays have occurred >1 connection with the extradition of Messrs.

This is the first intimation that the general pnhlie has received that Pen*i“ld is a bigger man then Bevdr idge." THE PLAIN TRUTH. "Before the steward takes up a col-' lection.” said a preacher in a western town, "1 wish to make a few remarks. 1 ’ There arc overt 201* person* in this house. If each person here thinks my sermon is worth the price of beer or a nickel cigar, 5 rents or a dime, let them pay that amount. If each pays a nick el, it will make a totsl of $19 this even ing. This amount every weak in the year will pay ray salary. A that isn't worth coming to hear anil a per son that will teat the lx>r<L the preacher or the printer is a gnat of the most Odor ous kind." , ” The above is (looting angind the press of the state and there is no credit, the preacher was right for later t« worthy of its hire and thore who derived bene fit from preacher's ministration should have done their share to have su]»port cd the minister.

"One touch of nature make* the whole world km' »nd the heart of the worst man in the world can be touched to the highest point in humanity by mere trifle*. EAGAN M'OULD’NT FIGHT.
