Suppose there isa deficiency al the end
of GoyEENoE lRFIANp's term of office?
There are DEFICIENCIES and deficiencies.
1t is possible for IRELAND to be as
much to blame for asurplus as fora ded-
cheney.
How?
He come into Office on the vast tide
OF the growth and expansion of the
state. New improvements were needed
to keep pace with the now era Of gov.
ornamental necessities.
IRELAND came in with the Eigh-
teenth Legislature. That body saw
fit in its performance of duty,
by and with advice of the
Governor in most eases, to iind out
what the state OF Texas needed, and
having found 1t out TO provide II.
It's provisions, apart from tho Comp
troller's estimates, required SGi2,OOO
This sum was promptly sot aside.
This sum ofS6l2,OOO absorbs tho $500.
600 cash balance left by Ex-Gov. Rob
erts and calls for $4,000 besides.
But Roberts left legacy that IL In
itselfa sort of deficiency. 1t took sIIO,.
900 Of his $4,000 cash balance to carry
out improvements and investments OF
State account provided for by his adj
ministration.
Tho books Of the comptroller are opor
TO inspection and show this fact.
Thus 1reland's one term must carry
tho burden Of $4,000 legacy bcqueathel
by RoRRers, and must provide for 500.
900 worth Of ncedful improvements be
sides.
What arc those improvementsS Re
ply; Terrell Lunatic asylum, $4,000
addition to asylum at Austin, $4,000
audiiorial board, $4,000; surveyin,
university and school lands, $500; I,
prevent adultoration OF food, $1,000
Land Frauds board, 5000; submittin,
constitutional amendments, $4,000
State Railway engineer, $1,000; Agri
cultural and Mechanical College an,
Prairie View College, $4,000; purchas,
Of Alamo, $4,000; temporary capitol
Sll,50oi pensions, Slso,ooOi public ground
and buildings and repairs to Exocutiv,
mansion, $500; Now Orleans Exposl
ton, $4,000; fees OF attached witnesses
$1,000; to suppress fenco.cutting, $50,
900.
Which would be better, a surplus an,
a short sighted, siunied, narrow roiicy
or a deficiency and a voice Of coaion.

and the money is expended
in educating the children in Cen
trail, Eastern and Southern Texas.
The lands belong to the children, and
they are as much entitled to the benefits
derived from them, rs the cattle syndi-
Gates in New York, England or Western
Texas are entitled to the profits made on
their cattle. Ifthe resolutions mean any
thing it is communism OF the most OBJ
jectionable character. The intolerance
shown by the resolutions towards the
Abilene Reporter is unworthy sensible,
intelligent body of men, who profess to
uphold that principle Of freedom which
guarantees to every man freedom OF
thought and speech. out upon such
miserable selfishness, greed and illiber-
ality.

NOT a few Of the papers of tho State
are still informing their readers that
Dallas is experiencing a water famine
This city has just the same quantity
Of water now that it had last year at
this season, but Dallas has grown
so rapidly in extent and population dur
ing the last twelve months that fears
were entertained that the supply would
not be adequate to the wants of the
people. Two years ago it was thought the
present water works would furnish a
sutiiciency Of water to accommodate
all demands for the next ten years, but
the growth Of the city has been wonder
lul and beyond the fondest anticipations
Of the most sanguino, and there is al
readya necessity for moro extensive
supply of water.

MAORI. a. D0yE, an old Texian, is
out in a long letter on free grass, which
no opposes. He isin favor OF leasing the
lands at not less than 20 cents an acre,
in small quantities, with twenty-foot
lane around each $40 acres of land. The
cattle syndicatos were the first to urge
legislative action in regard 90 the public
lands, and now their free-grass raid will
cause them more trouble, for there is
not doubt that the prices will be adj
vanced, and a law passed providing for
fences and roads wherever the actual
settlers require them.
