Ben ThOmpson's Escapade.
TNews Special.


AUSTIN, january, 12.-Ben Thomp
sons little pleasantly at the cattle
mems banquet the other night is still
subject Of much comment and in
terest in this city. The cattlemen
are indignant that no attempt has
been made to arrest and punish him,
while they also assert that the res
tauranteur made them pay for the
crockery destroyed by Thompson,
during his frolicksome performance
with the six shooter. Bad blood has
been literally created, and it required
all the energy and exertions OF the
cooler cattlemen to prevent trouble,
even twelve hours after the thing
was done,
It is almost certain that Austin has
seen the cattle convention for the last
time. The next convention is called
to meet here, but it is universally ad-
mitted that after the convention is
called to order it will adjourn to meet
in Galveston. This action was taken
because the city government of Austin
made no attempt topunish Thompson
for his escapade.
As q prominent cattleman from
North Texas to- day observed "The
cowmen want protection from Ben
Thompson almost as much as from
fence cutters, and if Austin won't give
this they will go elsewhere"

WASHINGTON LETTER.
lFrom Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Jan. IA. 1883.

WASHINGTON, Jan. IA. 1888.
The opening week of the year was
a busy and fruitful one in Congress
Many of the three thousand or more
bills which were introduced prior tc
the holiday adjournment were report
ed favorably from Committee, notably
Mr.. Dingleys shipping bill, which
does away with many of the inciden
tai burdens and annoyances which
add to the obstacles in the way of re
viving our marine. The virtues OF
the American hog were ably defend
ed in the House, and retaliatory
Legislation was proposed to secure to
him the right of emigration. SEN
ator Van Wyck raked over the Star
Route expenditures, and brought
curious detective bills to light. The
aggregate expenditures in the Star
Route prosecution were about $107,-
286, and it is becoming painfully evi-
dent that one of the attorneys had a
regular bonanza in the business.
Then the investigation mill was set
agoing again under MIR. Spring
er's leadership, and this time they
are grinding at the Department OF
Justice. There is much work to
come, and the measures that promise
to demand the attention of Congress
are of prime Importance. Two of
the appropriation bills are ready, and
others will quickly follow, so that
there will be no lack of routine bust
ness. Outside of these supply bills
the legislation that will excite the
most discussion relates TO the reven
ues and currency. There will also be
determined efforts to augment our
military establishment encourage
shipping, help the whiskey interest,
benefit the Mississippi river, perfect
the machinery Of the electoral college
relieve the Supreme Court arrange
an improved system Of dealing with
private claims, frame a satisfactory
bankrupt law, and alter the postal
laws in some particulars. The rail
roads are TO have no mercy, land
grants will be strictly construed, the
diplomatic and consular service is tc
be critically scanned, Fitz John Porter
is to be restored to the army, etc
Thus it will be seen that enough
work is mapped out to make a busy
and a useful session, though il MAJ
be cut short by the anxiety Of tbs
various members concerning then
campaign interests LESoL

BEYOND THESE CHILLING WINDS


Beyond these chilling winds and gloom.
skies,
Beyond deaths solemn portal,
There is q land where beauty never dies,
And love becomes immortal.
A land where light 10 never dimmed b,
shade,
Whose fields are ever vernal,
Where nothing beautiful can ever fade,
But bloom for aye, eternal.
We may not know how sweet the balmy air
How bright and fair its flowers;
We may not hear the songs that echo there
Through those enchanted bowers.
That city's shining towerswe may not see
With our dim earthly vision,
For Death, the silent warden, keeps the key
That opes those gates elysiAn.
But sometimes when adown the western sky,
The fiery sunset fingers,
It's golden gates swing inward noiselessly,
Unlocked by silent fingers.
And while they stand moment half ajar,
CLEANS from the inner glory
Stream brightly through the azure vault
afar,
And half reveal the story.
o land unknown! o land of love divine
Father all wise, eternal,
Guide, guide these wandering, erring feet
of mine N

The Land Fraud Reports.
Houston Post.

Messrs. DeMorse, Hall and Potter
composing the investigating Land
Board, have presented general and
a supplementary or minority report
of their labors to the Governor. The
Board unanimously reports that
School, University and Asylum lands
to the amount Of 100000 acres have
been "filed" upon in violation Of the
acts of 1879 and 1881. These cases
have been turned over to the Attorn.
ey-Cieneral for suit. The Board
dwells upon the fact that many OF
these certificates have been obtained
by agents of "non-residents, specula-
tors and and foreign corporations,
whose continued ownership would
probably cause internal troubles OF o
very serious nature 1t is the
opinion of the Board that the threat
Of suit would induce many who had
purchased ignorantly or without due
consideration to yield their claims
quietly. The Board being charged
with the investigation of the John
Gibson certificates report, on the
constitutionality of the Fifty Cents
law, they have found several cases in
which filings have been illegal or ir-
regular. These cases are specified.
The Board suggests the propriety OF
taking these claims into court
and having them judicially settled.
After presenting irregularities discov.
cred in the Haskell County school
lands, the Board states that their
investigation shows that certain en-
ployes Of the Land Offices (who are
named) have fled upon school lands
with the consent of the commissioner,
but owing to the absence of any man
datory powers possessed by the
Board, such investigation was neces-
sarily limited to voluntary informa-
ton. This defect in the constitution
of the Board is significantly pointed
out. On the whole, the report is
very suggestive, but very unsatisfac-
tory. The supplemental report is
made by Colonel DeMorse alone.
This gentleman in the most explicit
and fearless manner, denounces the
Fifty Cent Law as an unconstitution-
al act, and citing the ipsassima verba
of the organic instrument, argues
warmly for its repeal and for q rele-
CATION to the State Of lands sold un-
der its provisions. The paper is
characteristic and able. 1t is full OF
patriotism and. popular sentiment;
but the validity OF the argument
must be decided by the legislature.
