This is a strange position for an antisla-

and he claims too. that Reid entertains
anti slavery sentiments. 4 few years
ago. in 1916, this same man Reid was the
editor of the Jetlersonian lie was also
in that year a candidate for the leg islature
in opposition TO Mr.. Iaryan. He was de-
teated. and after the election an editorial
appeared in his paper headed The Mex

he says. in appare. t horror that Mr.. ar
van was ''eiected on the open and dr0,ced
principles of The aboiuioaists. Horr-
BILE, wasn't it. Scarce a number of the
paper was issued under his adninistra-

denunciations Of the abolitionists and
their principles. and now he is Rugged in

TExAs---BoUSDARY 1.-The National In
teliigencer contains correspondence be-
tween d. $ kaufman, Of Texas. and Mr..
VIM. Darby. the eminent geographer, on
the subject of the Western boundary Of
Texas. Mr.. Darby says, in his communi-
cation 10 the editors enclosing the cores
pondence. that westward Of the Perdido.
the boundary Of Florida. the whole coun.
try TO the Rio Grande is marked on Biron's
map. published in Paris. 1875. as Louisi-
ana. This map was published four years
after the cession Of tina, country by France
to Spain.
Mr.. Darby writes TO Mr. Kaufman that
nearly fifty years Of his life have been de-
voted 10 the study Of Geography. In 1916
Mr.. ID. published his first account of Lou
islana- In this work his principal object
was TO show the western limit Of Louisi an a
(ihe country.) distinguished from the
boundary of Louisiana. the State. That
work contains the evidence then in his
possession. that the Rio Grande for four
hundred miles from its mouth was the linn
il in that direction. Homon's map pub
lished at Nuremburg. 1919. map of Her
1863, and Biron's 1866, are the authorities
on which Mr.. Darby takes the Rio Grande
as the limit.
He says that when engaged in the sur
vey, he does not recoliect ever TO have
heard the Nueces named as the boundary
And his conclusion is that as high as the
Puerco. the Rio Grande must be consid-
cred the boundary. but above that branch
the province Of New Mexico embraced the
upper valley Of the Rio GraDde Mr.
Darby says that he intends to define the
physical geography of the country how
