spite the exceeding dizziness of the
times in almost every department Of
business considerable improvements

business houses are soon to be erected

ton.
However, politics Is the prevailing
topic Of conversation of the hour. AS
we often heard remarked on the
streets, 1t Is hard to tell If or not any
true political party dots exist in the
county. The Democratic masses are
hopelessly in the hands of the ring Off.
Gals, who are seeking new
lease, and the Republicans,
consisting principally of negroes, won't
stay sober long enough to enable one
who Is anxious to get a satisfactory in
tervlew on the question as to which
party or which candidates they really
intend to support. The two parties
are about equal numerically, and the
Democratic "bosses," seeing that the
intelligent Democracy cannot be relied
upon to pull them through,
betake themselves to the honorable (?j
of virtually buying negro votes, or at
tempting so to do by the use of money
and bad whisky. These two articles
have certainly "babeliz ID" the Repub-
lican organization of the county.
Capt. G. +. Dixon, present
sheriff and candidate for re-elec.
ton, Is running as an indie
pendent Democrat. He is op-
posed by what is known as the
"court-house ring" who have placed
against him candidate well esteemed
but who it is doubtful IL he can defeat
Dixon. The main interest centers on
the race for sheriff, and it is feared
there may be trouble over the question
before election day, owing to the high
feeling existing.

CARRIzo SPRINGS, Ten, Aug. H.
The Frazier brothers, sons of DR.. Fra
zier of this place, Gently purchased
tract of land near the courthouse
plaza in Garlic Springs. They
Immediately shipped the necessary
outfit for well-boring and commenced
to bore for flowing water. At
thirty feet the water commenced
to flow from the top, has 30 continued
for several days, and will doubtless be
permanent. 1t has been thought for
some time that artesian wells could be
sunk here and water obtained any
where In the vicinity of Garlic Springs
at not more than 100 feet and the
success of the Frazier brcthers demon
strates the correctness Of the opin-
ion. Within one mile of the
courthouse there are not less
than seventy-five springs OF
excellent water and In town are
dug wells sixteen feet deep with water
inexhaustible, and in many instan ces
the flow is SO bountiful and strong that
curbing is impossible.
1t may be added that the medicinal
qualities of these waters are remark
able. Persons with lung troubles,
especially ESTIMATES, experience as
tonishing benefits from their
use, and many coming here
in an almost hopeless condition have
been restored TO good health. DR.. j.
w. Hudson of Bolton, aged rs, having
suffered for many months of "old
mans asthma was recently forced to
the conviction, Notwithstanding his
comfortable surroundings at Bolton,
that in order to get breath sufficient
to live on he must find more
genial climate and change OF water.
He came direct to Garlic Springs, and,
mirabile dictu, his old trouble declined
to come with him. During short trips
to other points the attacks return, but
while here he is totally exempt.
We are blessed also with an abund-
ance of excellent building stone, and
brick clay of the best quality Is here
and the manufacture of brick promises
to lie paying industry in the near
future. Our townsman j. NJ. Henigan,
has yard in operation, and makes
excellent brick. He has also expert
mented some with Jug work, enough
to demonstrate that the material is
we'll adapted to that business.
AS a farming country, Dimmitt
county Is comparatively un-
tried, but actual experiment has
whispered the hope that as cotton
country 1t Is destined to take high rank
while all the ordinary garden crops
that have been tried here have done
well, particularly beets, sweet potatoes
onions, cabbage and watermelons.

FROM WASHINGTON.
THE WESTERN UNION.
The Vice President OF the Compan y
Before the Senate Committee on
Post Offices and Roads.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 90.

WASHINGTON, FeD. 20.
John Van Horne, vice president of the
Western Union Telegraph Co.. appeared. by
subpoena. defore the sub committee of the
Senate committee on post Offices and post
roads today.
Senator Hill asked several questions with
reference to the contracts between the
Western Union Company and railroads
and the number of franks issued by the
Western Union Co., in regard to whicn mat
tiers Gen. Van Horn could only make gen.
eral statement. The contracts and franks
came, he said, within his department, but he
had not expected to be questioned about them
and he had not charged his mind with details.
series of questions sent out by the
committee had gone to DIR. Green, president
of the company, who was preparing replies to
be laid before the committee Monday. He
said the Western Union Company had several
hundred contracts with railroad companies.
A clause was inserted in the majority of them
providing that the railroad should not trans
port material for any other telegraph com
panies at less than the regular rates, nor de-
liver at other than regular stations. With
out such provisions the rights of way would
not be worth what the Western Union COM
pany has to paw for them. Franks to an ag-
gregate value of 500, 600 and 81 900, ,0oO had
been issued last year, exclusive of compli-
mentary franks. There were two classes,
business franks to railroads and half rate
franks to transportation companies COM
panies.
