EDrroR Anti MoxoPoLIsT.-Those who
regard the separation of the Anti-Monopoly
element from its alliance with Democratic
and liberal leadership as unfortunate, can
not say that you did it, We're any proof
needed to show that you have always fav
ored this association. there are hundreds Of
witnesses who could bear testimony to your
fidelity to such copartnership- Indeed
you hare risked and. fear. to some extent,
los, the confidence Of your Anti Monopoly
friends by your willingness to grant con-
cessions TO the leaders Of the organizations
named. and that. too, when the masses of
these parties neither sympathized with nor
approved az the conduct Of their would-be
leaders. II is true now that the masses Of
the old Democratic party and Of the Liber-
ais are Anti Monopolists, and favor the or
ganization Of { distinct party free from the
control Of their ancient leaders, whom they
hold to be. for the most part, corrupt dema
gogues and members Of rings Of spoilsmen
wholly destitute Of political honesty; and
they have GOOD reason for entertaining such
uafavorable opinions Of them

THE UNIVERSITY LANDS.

The report of the Commissioner
Of the General Land Office shows
two hundred and two thousand six
hundred and forty.nino acres Of
land rs surveyed for University
purposes. OF this amount fifty.
two thousand acres have boon sold
at the average price Of S3.4O per
acre, making SIG, 800. AS now pro
vidcd, portion Of this amount re.
mains unpaid, but II part OF tho
principal and tho accruing interest
is paid annually. Tho payment is
secured by II lien retained on tho
land by tho State.
If the ono hundred and fifty
thousand six hundred acres unsoId
should bring tho Same average
value, not counting the accumuIa-
ting interest, tho principal of the
fund would amount tl six hundred
and lightweight thousand eight
hundred dollars. The interest add
cd by the time the last payments
would fall due, would increase the
fund to ut least one million dollars.
But we arc sanguine in the belief
that gradual sale of those lands,
only such portions rs arc market
able or in demand, selling annually
only alternate manifestations, on
twenty years time, with n payment
of principal at time of sale, and
the next year the interest, and
every year thereafter ono .twontioth
of tho principal and the interest,
with n fixed minimum price Of not
lcss than five dollars per aero,
would very largely increas the fund,
ifnot quite double the figures shown
above.
II has been suggested by some of
our cotemporarios that these Uni
vorsity lands should not be sold.
We do not concur in this opinion.
1t is useless to talk about leasing
wild land in Texas. There are too
many millions of fertile acres in the
market that can DO had at moderate
prices to think Of leasing unim.
proved lands No law can be de.
vised that will koop off trespasscrs,
and the consequents poliation of the
university lands. 1t is proper that
the counties whore they are situated,
IN well as tho State, should receive
u revenue, in tho way of taxation,
from them. They should be cult.
waited and made to produce. Tho
surest way to attain these ends is TO
sell tho lands on long time, at fair
prices, with ten per cent, interest
for the time given. In this way, no
loss could accrue to tho fund, the
lands would be taken up, and tho
State and the counties in which the
lands are situated would be reaping
revenue from thcm.
