THREE THINGS EssENTIAL.-Lord Bacon has
said: There be three things which make
nation great and prosperous. a fertile soil,
busy work shops, and easy conveyance of man
and things from place to pluce." This state
meat IS n true to-day rs il was at the time it
was uttered, All new countries, in the ordi-
nary course OF events, Gevclcp first the ngrculu-
raj interests, and the degree of dey yelopmeut is
only limited hy the fertility IF the soil and the
tic'hiies of transporting products 10 the mar
Ec;s cfthe world.
The agricultural interests of the nation are,
however, closely allied to the development of
,.o 49,, - i''tArasIsI- is TO these that
We mus. eyer LOOK Tor permanent greatness md
prosperity. The success OF these interests de-
rerds largely rpon the excellence of the product
Ihe we'll is our market for what is not needed
at home. and we neei only to excel in those
articles which we expert 10 furnish the world
with our wares, just as we do now with our
bread s.ufIs.
Commerce has always been dependent upon
transportation, and in cur country and times
there has been no exception. Nations are great
or insignificant just III proportion to the magni
tule OF their commerce. Half century ago our
commerce was insi igniicant in amount and linn
ited to n short distance from the sea. board out
the locomotive came upon the scene, and forth
with the farms began to yield of their abund
hncc; anu now the internal commerce of the
country n,ny be reckoncd by millions. while that
of our foreign trade may be counted by hun
dreds Of millions. In 1880 we had only venty-
three miles of railroad while to day our approxi-
mate railway mileage is nearly one hundred
thousand miles.
We had and yet have fertile soil our work
shops and their products are the wonder of the
world oar transportation system is now the best
on the globe and in these we have three essen. d.
thl things that are necessary to make our nation

effect the 10th OF July With an earnes
appeal 10 iearlessly punish small crimes
for there was the beginning OF the greaI
evil, he dismissed the grand Jury TO theii
deliberations.
The most important civil suit Is one
against the International IL Great Northern
railway company for 10000 damages. The
allegations Of plaintiffs are: That Mrs.
Sarah M. Smith and two small children,
with Miss Lydia X. Gilbert, OF st. Elmo,
travelling from Decatur, Alabama,t to Lowell,
Texas by mistake continued on the 81.
Louis & Galveston. International & Great
Northern train instead OF changing at Long
view junction; that at Loote's, a flag station
of the international u Great Northern, at
Snyder's mill. about six miles from the
junction in the Sabine river swamp, they
negro porter while the cars were yet in mo-
tion, though moving slowly, by order Of the
conductor. and conductor to whom Mr.. s.
had submitted her ticket for inspection be
fore the departure OF the train from Long
view junction, as he came through the car.
and he said 1t was all right. There is no
station house at Loote's, and they were
compelled to hire negro to guide them
back to town. The exposure TO the cold
ana storm of the night caused much suffer
ing and such serious injury to the health
OF each of them, that they were for long
time helpless. To add to the horrors OF the
night, their guide attempted, at the point
Of pistol, to force Miss Gilbert to crafty
his lust, when their screams called aid and
their treachorous pilot fled. Damages,
$25 1000 IN each case. The railroad COM
pany make denial of all the part relating
to force, morning train, previous consulta-
tion as to ticket, etc. The case is con-
tinued because of physical feebleness of
the railroads attorney, Colonel Sexton.
Another important suit is that of w. l..
Garrett VS.. Drs. Markham & McCutcheon,
for malpractice. He broke his arm, they |
set it. He alleges il was improperly done,
and wants $500 damages. They think |
his negligence and disobedience to their |
instructions sufficient defense, even if any |
damage ensued not legitlmately attributa-
BILE to the wourd d.
We have the case of the brakeman and |
baggage man, Hero and Crogan of the In
ternational Great Northern, cnar ged with |
stealing from the baggage of passengers.
The Stephens murder case and several |
other criminaities of minor Importance are |
on the docket and they will probably, if the |
cases are not postponed, take all of the !
time Of the term.
Crops are growing finely, fair crop of
corn is assured and though rain would be be
fetal, there is as yet no suffering. Cotton |
is as good as the most chronic croaker
could wish.
