THE CHICAGO, TEXAS AND MEXICAN CEN
TRIAL RAILWAY.

Daniel Fl. Halo, esq, president of the
Chicago, Texas q Mexican Central railway
company, with other gentlemen from Chi
csgo, arrived in Dallas Sunday morning
The arrival Of Mr. bale ut the present
JunCture is looked upon rs an suspicious cir
cumstsnce, and the general belief now is that
grading will soon commence on this most
important line. Within tho last thirty or
forty days the local management Of tho road
in TsIss has most ehergeticAlIy advanced the
interests of tho company. All along the limo
from Red river TO Dallas, aud from Dallas TO
Cleburne subscriptions have poured into the
road until to-day very substantial donations
OF notes and bonds comprehepding very sat
IsGactory amounts have been Sc
cured for tho company. Tho work
has been quiet, but it has certainly
b1en efficient These are not all tho results
which have followed active and most intali-
gent enlargement Committees ut local

road has poid out largo sums already, meet
lag its bills with great promptitude, ard
whom grading commences Wa may lOo, for
largo expenditures to DO made. The party
from Chicago, it the weather permits, will
shortly drive over tho located line and pos
aibly glance ut the mountain vally route.
Dallas has been stirred up by tho Chicsgo
vim aud push which has characterized the
efforts Of the local management Of tho COM
psny hero in Texas during the last thirty
days. This energy augurs we'll for tho
future advancement of this great work, q
work in which Dallas has the profoundost in
terest, and to which she largely looks for her
oomisg develop mont, and for the doniaaton
Of north Texas.

Henry Beverly, charged with robbing on
the highway, was arrsigned for trial in the
district court yesterday morning. There
arc ten indictments in all of this character
against him. The circumstances Of the
robberes are still fresh in the minds of the
readers Of the Herald. Ho and Otis lEesrly,
his partner in the crime, stopped persons on
tho Denton road, aud with drawn pistols
forced them to she'll out their cash. A party
of citizens pursued them, and in their at.
tempt TO escape Kearly WAS shot and killed,
his body being riddled with buckshot.
Beverly escaped at the time, but was cubs
esquently arrested at the residence of
a relative by the namo of
Pierce, in Collin county, brought
hore and lodged in Jail. Ho had u fresh
wound made by mixed shot, and was Iubse-
quently recognized by number OF his VIC

The Jury was empanneled, and Judge
BNk;dale, representing the prisoner, and

THE Christian Statesman, official
organ of the NJ. f. church in Wis
consin, and = strong advocate of
prohibition, opposes the temperance
state ticket 1t says among many
other prominent things:
We think we are truthful in say
ing that when the prohibition party
in this state nominated a state ticket
it was more TO spite the republican
party than il was 20 benefit the tenn
perance cause. Some of the most
earnest leaders of that party have
stated that they did rot expect to
win, tho most they ho.ld for was to
defeat the republican party. Thus
men know that they are working for
this purpose, and know TOO that IN
doing THE they are indirectly aiding
the democrats. Their whole line of

1t has been reported that Mr.. IT.
Price, who offered what is termed the
Price resolution in the Republi.
can state convention. was support.
ing the Republican ticket. A letter
from him, which has found it's wav
into print, shows that this report
is untrue, and that he Is neither SUP.
porting the Republican ticket or
party, but, as he has done in sons
previous years. is giving his sup
port to its enemies. Mr.. Price pre-
fers to be a candidate on the Rep

ing some other party. Four years
ago when running for the Senate
he pledged himself privately, to the
Gteenbaekefs, promising that if he
was elected he would sustain their
principles, and be their repi esenta-
tive. The letter making this pledge
afterward became public, but not
till some time after his election.
Mr.. Price is preenbaclcr and a
prohibitory liquor law man in fact.
But no has long been consuming
with desire to represent the eth

Republican in the district has incur

They have in times past stood in
the way of his aspirations, and he
has talent for hatred With his
hot temper, he unites many kind
and generous traits, so that many
Inconsistencies are overlooked in
him which would not be forgiven in
the case of most men. His recent
letter is an illustration Of his want
Of perspicacity and Judgment. In it
be takes an utterly indefensible posi-.
ton. He says in effect that neither
the Republican or Democratic party
has amy principle, while the PROM
hition party has one that he APP
proves, and, in the same breath, he
declares that he would not have orga-
nized the latter. Why he would
not organize party which has a
principle he approves, but prefers
to remain in an organization which,
he says, has none, he does not

STATE LANDs.-Governor Smith
authorizes the following statement
relative to the present status Of the
claim prosecuted during his admins
tration for additional lands due the
state from the general governments:
Gle has already received from the
general land department, lists of
about $4,000 acres Of land approx
ed 10 the state, aud will receive,
within few weeks, lists of about
100000 acres or more, The greater
part Of the list named tracts will be
indemnity lands for swamp lands
disposed of by the United States
government for land warrants prior
to March 3, 1851. Prior to the same
date, the government had also sold
for cash about 10000 acres of land
now determined to be swamp, and,
undor existing laws, the cash re.
ceived for such sales will be paid to
the state. The Governor confidently
expects to receive this money before
the close Of the year. Thus there
will be secured to the state about
100000 acres additional lands or
their equivalent in cash.
IN addition to this, the right Of
the state has been established to
about 100000 acres, which have
been disposed of by the government
since March 3 1857, but there is no
existing law, authorizing indemnity
for lands sold since that date. How
ever, the right of the state to these
lands being established and conced-
ed by the General Land Department,
there can be no question about OBJ
tanning the necessary congressional
legislation"

A LAST WORD,


This is the last opportunity the
TRIBUNE viii have of urging upon
republicans the importance Of doing
their duty rs citizens next Tuesday.
The situation appears to be in this
state similar to what it was in 1878
Just before election Then, as now,
there was felt to be no danger of
republican defeat. In 1872 as in
1880 the republican majority for
president was magnificent, and it
was deemed impossible that it could
be wiped out a year later. Then, as
now, the democrats seemed so utter
ly demoralized that its resurrection
was not anticipated. Then the re-
publican party "slept on its arms
but half its vote was polled. But
the democratic party, Injured to de-
feat, yet trained to vote regularly,
even though success were deemed
impossible, came to the polls and
voted as fully as usual. Result,
Taylor elected Governor to the sur
prise and shame Of the state.
Depend upon it the democratic
vote will be cast As usual next Tues
day. There is far more reason to
expect it now than ordinarily at
state elections. In the present in
stance the democracy is encouraged
by the temperance movement to
have some hope Of success, and viii
strive to poll as nearly a full vote
rs possible, in order that If the re-
publican vote is light, or if the tenn,
perance ticket draws from MS serl-
ousy, they may secure the benefits
thereof.
The republican ticket is n good
