tender your resignation.

Ragsdale & Ford
He Hailed from Texas.
There was a tall gaunt Texan
who came on to Washington during
Cleveland's first administration.
He had a pile of letters and recom-
mendations and indorsements
about the size of a bundle of fod-
der. He was in high spirits and
perfectly confident that he would
get his appointment at once. He
took in the town with some of the
choice spirits of the Texas colony
and regaled them with bright pic-
tures of what he was going to do
just as soon as he was confirmed.
It turned out however that he
haden't been in Texas for ten
years. Another ofliceseeker caught
on to this fact and used it for alL
it was worth. The Texan went up
to see the secretary .and had a
painful interview with him and
wound up by saying: "It's true
Mr. Secretary I do business in
New York but I live in Texas at
least I don't think I'm living mi-
less I'm there. Besides if a man
can't hail from Texas where can
he hail from?"
The Lawyer and the Editor. '
A lawyer in a court room may
call a man a liar scoundrel vil-
lian or a thief and no one will
make any complaint when court
adjourns. If a newspaper prints
such a reflection on any man's
character there is a libel suit or a
dead editor. This is probably
owing to the fact that people be-
lieve what an editor says; what
the lawyer says cuts no figure.
