The. Texas Paclgc Railroad.

To-day, the first through train
leaves San Francisco for New Or
leans. 1t has long journey ahead
Of it over alkali deserts and thro'
lands where the population
ii made up chiefly Of caetusos and
Indians. 1t will be overa week be-
fore we see these visitors from the
Pacific Slope stcaming into our
city with all the products of
another world. Then, indeed,
must we recognize the fact Of the
completion of this great Southern
trans.contincntal route. That
route has been an accomplished
fact for over a month, but the de.
parture Of to-day's train is the first
practical evidence sc have had Of
it.
This city has the greatest posi-
bilities offered it in this newly open
ed field. No railroad in the world
can compare with this Southern
aud Texas Paciicm promise. 1t
is the shortest al rail route in the
United States, between the Pacific
and Atlantic coasts. tits shorter
by 600 to 500 miles than the New
York route; free from snow and ice
free from trouble from the IN.
dams. It shortens the distance
for grain between California and
Europe, 10000 miles, and allows
its transportation across the eonti-
nent by rail, which the Central Pa
cifc route can never do. In adj
diiion 10 this, it traverses nearly
1000 miles of Texas, running thr'o
rich country which it win help
to build up, aud penetrates the
most promising mineral districts
Of New Mexico and Arizona. By
this route, therefore, this city has
D chance Of securing tho grain and
fruit, trade Of China, the greater
portion Of The business of North
ern Texas and the return trade
Of al these sections. We have
advantages over every city in the
world IN securing this business.
It will not come to ua, however,
voluntarily; no trade ever does.
We are simply offered d chance to
step inand win it, and are given
greater opportunities than any
other commercial city. Itremains
for our merchants to utilize those
opportunities and to make Now

1'he Administrative Programme,

Especial to the Courier.Journal,
Washington. December 10-lt is
the intention of the administration
to try and break Democratic rule
in tho Southern States, following
up the success in Virginia. As
confirmation Of that statement, it
may be mentioned as a political
fact that arrangements are now be-
ing made to wrest Tennessee and
West Virginia from The Democracy.
The whole bent of the Stalwart
element Of the Republican party
and Of the administration win be
il that direction. The cry has
gone forth that Tennessee must be
captured by the Republicans, and
every effort is being made to IN
duce the fullflment Of that de.
mand. The Stalwsrt wing Of
+ the Republican party is rally
/ ing to it; all that the Stalwarts
ana administration can do to Sc
cure the overthrow of the Dem
oeraey in Tennessee will be ac-
complished without scruple. II is
also a noticeable fact that the
Stalwarts are patting Hon. Mr..
speer, Of Georgia, on the back
and urging him to become the
Malone of Georgia. But it has TO
be placed to the credit of the politi-
+ cal sagacity Of the Stalwarts and
the administration that they do net
expect any immediate fruits from
Georgia; they only want Mr.. Speer
to inagurate the endeavor. Their
first objective bent is Tennessee,
and after that they propose to
bounce upon Arkansas; and then,
t if successful, they will devote
themselves to other States, being
aided in their action by the con.
aideration IS TO where the chances
carefully weighed, seem best.

eAf ANAtEAAHM t0AkAs
The advantage obtained by a
State comparatively free from the
colored element, and one cursed rs
it is clearly shown BY tie rapid
strides made by the free compared
with the Old slave States. The ad
vaneement, Of any State in the
Union in material wealth and pros
perity can Be gUaged BY the negro
element. It's absence means pro-
I gress aud wealth, its presence stag
nation and want Of enterprise. BY
displacing the white workman IN
/ the workshops the national charac-
ter and loyalty TO the State is de-
str0yed. for who can doubt that
national character has its source
/ largely in the workshops. What
country has preserved its eharac-
ter for progress and wealth, though
presided over by whites, where It's
artisans and workmen are black
Look ana zee if history furnishes
such an example 2 But some con-
tend that we cannot have too many
negroes, and that they cheaper Ia.
bor. But the question for the peO
ple 10 decide, is it or not a benefit
for the State to have them ? The
answer is plain that the State
would be greatly benefited by
getting rid Of them.
1t viii be conceded that the ne
groes are not so desirable residents
MS TO be placed on an equal foot
ing with the whites in social life
/ that it is not desirable they shoul'
intermix and intermarry with tn
Whites that they should not hav'
political control Of the State, max
and administer laws, and that
laboring population Of negroes eS
clusiyely is a plague blot, that r
tards industry, wealth and pros
perity.
1t is right that the people o
: Kentucky should be stirred up t.
get rid Of the redundant negr
population; the matter has too in
portant o bearing upon the futur
progress Of the State to BIC disrg
garded and treated with indiffei
enee. The question that present
istself to our legislature is, are W
! to allow our rich lands, coal, tin
ber and mineral wealth to lie con
paratively undeyelopcd, and th
negroes to continue to use thei
advantages Of cheap living On
stealing to displace tho whites ]
the channels of labor and prevel
white immigration : We Rno'
that they laborin the same ehal
: nels, aud only do 80 much as wi
supply the pressing necessities
the hour; that they originate Il
. new undertakings, develope 4
new industry, have no new invel
, tive faculties, accumulate II
wealth; indeed are mere drone
and act as clogs upon the whee
af progress.
Let ,,the coming Legislature j
augurate some plan to induce ii

and as we get rid of them the
places will be rapidly filed !
