Mr.. Hill addressed the Senate on the

clauses authorizing the Government to
buy or build lines were meant TO protect
the people from eNorbitant rates.
Mr.. Maxey said the majority of the
Senate committee ON Postoiicesa and Pos I
Roads were opposed Go the proposition
tkat the Government should buy or build
lines. There was no constitutional OBJ
lection, he said, to the Governments IS

THE HERALD'S WEEKLY RESUME
The Reports Rather Light But General,
Cheerful In Tone-Not u Cheep"
from the Croaker - Cotton
Coming Forward, Etc.
In Collin CnnniY.

MckINNEY, July Especial. Our
roads have been so bad of late that en-.
gines and threshers find much difficulty
in moving, hence not much threshing up
TO date. So far as can be judged from
what has been threshed, wheat will not
exceed ten bushels per acre; oats about
fifty bushels. The quality of oats will
not be as good as last year. Many acres
of oats and wheat in the northwestern
portion of the county will be lost on ac-
count of too much rain. Corn continues
to do well. Cotton is clean and growing,
though very late. Farmers are truly
disheartened with prices being paid for
grain.
