FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1901.
The news today of the condition
of President McKinley causes
grave apprehension again as to
the outcome of his wounds.
The Beeville Banner aptly re
marks :
"One of the secrets of success
is sticking to work that yon un
derstand. Because you may know
how t put money in the bank and
kein it there, is by no means evi
dence that you could pilot a steam
boat or handle a llviujjr baloon."
The new editors of fche Victoria
Advocate, Messers French " and
Jecker, seem to feel equal to the
heavy responsibility assumed by
them when they went into the
business of publishing a news
paper. They are running adonble
leaded notice to the public that
any who have a kick to make will
be cheerfully received at their
editorial sanctum.
One of the latest things in paper
is coffins. 1 he paper coffin, it is
said, has stood all the tests. It
has demonstrated to be waterproof,
fireproof, acidproof in fact, in
destructible." Smithville Trans
cript. Fire proof, eh? What a
splendid thing it will be for the
delinquent subscribers ! Houston
Post.
Surely the Post cannot want to
cheat the delinquent subscribers
out their dues.
The request of Capt. Lemley,
judge advocate of the Schley court
of friqnir7 for the appointment of
one of the ussist.Mit attorney gen
erals to aid him in the conduct of
the case, has been promptly refus
ed by Attorney General Knox
The ground for his refusal is
very good one tuat, as tue prt1
dent himself had recommend
Admiral Schley for promotion, it
would look like a desire on the
part of the administration to con
vict him shonld it now detail an
officer to aid in the case against
hint.
