sense enough to 20 TO Washing
ton, could have accomplished. The
people in this portion of
the first district are beginning 10 recognize
his inetiiCiency, and ii as not an uncommon
thing now to hear men, who have support
ed him always, say that they are done with
Reagan, and that they will not again sup
port him for anything. As We said we have
been laboring for the past five years to con-
vince the people that they were leaning on
a broken reed, and thank the Lord we
have lived to see the 'scales" fall from their
eyes; like the water that increasingly drips
upon the rocks, we have at last made an
impression. The Meridian Blade, in
speaking of the connection of tins
distinguished nobody" with the star
route swindle, in reply to an
article in the Rusk county News, says:
"rhe Rusk County News, published in the
district represented by Judge Reagan, takes
exceptions to the charge of dcmagOguery
| against that gentleman, and has the follow
| ing to say in his defense: If Judge Rea-
gan is demagogue, his immediote con-
sttucnts have not realized the fact. They
have satisfactory proof that he is an able
and faithful public servant, whose record
| is far above rcproach The News COM
mends to the perusal of the Blade the bold
and manly exposure, in congress, of the
gigantic swindlos of the star bid enormi-
! ties, in the face Of a powerful ring, backed
| by their presses, their influential men and
their millions Of money, with the same i'll
geanco This is the public
servant that the Meridian Blade
dcnounces to the people of Texas as dema-
gogue." Now, all that is said in the above
about the "bold and manly exposure of the
gigantic swindes of the star-route enormi-
ties in the face of a powerful ring" backed
by presses, influential men millions of mon
ey, etc, is almost to ridiculous to notice
The fact is that the powerful ring" cen,
sisted entirely of u few mail contractors ana
several lobbyists, and the "bold and manly
exposure of the gigantic swindles' etc,
was nothing but an attempt to defend his
own inconsistent action in voting against
paying for improvements in the mail ser
vice which only q short while. before he had
recommended. There could be nc
stronger evidence of Judge Reagan's dema'
gogucry than the constant prattle OF HIM
self and those who speak for him about
having to resist rings, lobbyists and other
corrupt influences in discharging his official
duties. Honest congressman feel no terror
Of rings and lobbies and if Judge Reagan
found it difficult to resist them it must
have been because he was weaker than
other men. The most powerful lobby in
the star route controversy in congress wa'
that which was operated and controlled by
the speaker and his packed appropriation
committee. Judge Reagan held a commit
tee Craftsmanship at the pleasure of the
: speaker, and there is no less reason to SuS
pcct that his action was controlled by tina
influence than that congressman who dit
iered with him were actuated by some cor
rupt MOTIVE Pamela Waterman.

VANDERBILT AND ERLANGER
The New York Magnate After Through
Line TO New Orleans.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ALLIANCE.
Mr.. Huntington and Mr.. Vanderbilt have
quite recently become fast friends, the re-
result ofwhich has been the adoption of
plan for mutual protection, and an inter
change of business on fair and equitable
basis. The plan is far-reaching, and will
embrace interests that are widely separated
apparently as are Cincinnati and the
Pacific slope, but which are really closer
interviewer. Mr., Devereaux did not deny,
but more than admitted, the agreement
between Mr.. Vanderbilt and Mr.. Hunting
ton-a close alliance to last until the Erlan-
gers quit in disgust-between the Ohio rail-
way and Huntingdon Kentucky and Ten
nesSee system and his proposed Arkansas
and Texas extension. Upon its completion
| the Kentucky Central will be used in con-
nection with the Cole system to points
reached by them, except Memphis and such
other points as can be reached via the line
controlled by Mr.. Huntington. In the
west the same intimate relation will exist
! The Central Pacific, controlled by the
! Huntington party is to accept and receive
! business from the Union Pacific, line in
which Mr.. Vanderbilt is largely interested
on basis that will be entirely satisfactory
to the New York Central people Under
this arrangement Mr.. Vanderbilt will be in
a position, he thinks, to compete with his
strongest rivals, for the business coming
and going between New York and Cincin
natl, the south and southwest, and New
York and California, with his own lines
reaching from the sea-board to Chicago, st
| Louis and Cincinnati.

man Is losing the hold he once held upon

is how he has managed
