The DnIIMs COIlcge.

To the Editor OF the DALLAS Herald;
Many of our publlo-spirited citizens
are anxious to know what progress at.
tends this enterprise. We are, perhaps,
making rs much Roadway as the most
sanguine could have reasonably eX-
pected, under the extraordinary none
tary pressure through which our peo-
pie generally are passing. The $50,
600 necessary to be raised In Da las to
secure here the certainty OF its erection,
has not yet been secured, but we are
satisfied that II will be Mt an early day.
One year ago double the amount could
have been more easily realized. Many
of our most enterprising citizens, who
realize the Importance of this enter
prise, and who have promised us their
liberal aid, have not yet given us their
subscriptions. The question is pond
cred by many of our business
men, "How can we bridge over
the present crisis?" They hesitate to
assume additional obligations until
they can see their way out of present
complications, lest the payment should
be required before they are prepared to
meet 1t. To this generous class of our
people we wish 10 say that their APP
prehensions are not well founded. 1t
would be rs unwise rs 1t would be I'M
practical, for us to attempt to make
collections and to build, until the
country is relieved from its present
money stringency. Our aim is to Sc
cure the college beyond contingency,
by securing the $4,000 in reliable
pledges to be collected when the times
become easier. From the present pros
pect Of abundant crops, and from
other favorable indications in the
financial centers of the world, many of
our Slsest men believe that the tinan-
GAL crisis will be passed la a few
months at most. Until then, or until
relief comes, be II sooner or later, It
would be unwise to attempt to build. |
In the meantime, we do not intend to
abate our efforts in the least, to secure
the means necessary to ultimate sue
cess.
Some OF the friends Of the enter
prise advise us, under the circum.
stances, to build on asmaller scale than
at first contemplated. This we are de-
ternlned not to do, but rather TO in
crease Its magnitude.
We intend to build an institution of
such proportions and style as will be
appreciated by our people, as an honor
% our city, or none at all. No one

CONGR ESS.

This body has adjourned over the
holidays until January 9Th. 1t is
now thoroughly organized and ready
for work, and enough was developed
during the short time it was in ses-
sion to indicate pretty clearly that
the session after it reassembles will be
a pretty lively one. The Republican
minority in the lower House is con-
ceded on all sides to have among its
members some of the most exper-
fenced, able and active men in the
House, and the majority will have its
hands full in dealing with this ac-
tive and wide-a-wake minority.
When such shrewd and experienced
parliamentarians as Blaine and Ran
dali cross swords we may expect to
to see a contest that will be excit-
ing and lively in the. extreme.

MARTINSBURG INDEPENDENT

Immediately.
MIR. Pritchard denied on the
part of the committee that the res
olution came from it. He
had received the charges al
luded to, and had called the Com
mittee together, and that he had
decided that it was not authorized
to investigate a member.
Mr.. Campbell moved that the
committee report not later than Z
p. m. tomorrow. He withdrew
that however.
Mr. Good characterized the COM
munication as a vile SANDER got
ten up by Burdett and Bennett
and Burdett, jr., whom he styled
'thievery from thievery.' He said
the State House had been turned
into a den of thieves; that he
learned that but an hour before
Auditor Bennett was in close COM
munication with a man whom he
(Good) had convicted of the high
est crime known to law, in order
to have him make affidavit that he
(Good) had compounded felony.
He said that this came upon him
because he had as chairman of the
Investigating Committee, discov-
cred that two State officers were
stealing from the people ; because
he had dared to defend the honor
and interest of the people of the
State. He called for a full and
immediate investigation.
Mr.. Campbell moved the resolu-
ton be rejected, and not spread
upon the minutes. Mr.. Agee
alone voted against the motion.
