HOW PLAIN A TALE PUTS THEM
DOWN.

Tho statement comes from Austin
that the increase In the assessment i'm
Tom Green county this year will be
S2,OoJ,OOO, or more, over that of last wear.
We assume that the statement is correct.
II comes direct, from the right source.
Accompanying this fact Is the further
and other one that in Tom Green county
more land has been leased than in any
other county of the State. Here are
some nuts for the free grass people to
crack. Weknow their cheeks are strong
and their teeth hard, hat it will require
n goodly, patent nut erushor to break
those facts beyond recognition.
Increase in values OF lands and prop.
crty arises from tho influx of population
primarily, bringing both the real and
personal property of the section into
greater demand; or secondarily, from
placing the property nearer good mar
ket by the construction Of railways or
other highways. In the case of Tom
Green the latier reason could not have
had any appreciable effect during the
past year, and the conclusion is irro-
sistible that this startling increase, for
II IL startling whom wo remember that
Tom Green Is n sparsely populated
county on our FAR western border, must
have resulted from the influx OF popula.
ton aud the general and consequent i'm.
provomont OF the section. The conclu-
sion IL susceptible of syllogistic demon.
Stration and IL sustained by the COM
monty known facts thoro and through
shu State.
Then extensive leasing even docs not
prevent immigration, does not retard
settlement, does not depreciate values,
and snot detrimental to either the state
or the particular locality where the
leases prevail. We doubt not that the
same result as witnessed In Tom Green
viii, when the returns are made, be
found true equally of Pecos, Preside
aud In fact all the other western coun.
ties. There is no reason ON earth TO
assume TO the contrary. We shall SEQ

who was arrested in New Laredo, Mex
leo, has been released, the Mexican au-

pers were inadequate to eXtradite

made to pay all the costs, inclusive Of
Towards board while in Jail. Howard
had expressed a Willingness to return to

only get him out of the Mexican iail.

ing most satisfactory and startling
development and growth in population.
In fact, from all sections of the State,
all counties so far heard from, the
hgures are running by the tens and
hundreds of thousands above the last
assessment. 1t isn't the lease law that
is hurting the State, it is the failure to
realize all that these valuable lands are
worth and so cut down taxes and add to
the wealth and prosperity of the people
at large.

The RIGHT OE EMlNENInoMAlN

w aSnlHSlOn auNlCeS indicate much on
position in the Indian Territory to the
grants Of right-of-way to railroads made
ut the session OF Congress lust closed.
This is not news. 1t was notorious that
the representatives of the tribes i'm the
Territory were in force opposing the pas
sage of the bills referred to when they
were up for consideration. These Terri
tory Indians have invariably opposed
any effort looking to the removal of the
barrier which their country presents to
iree and more extended intercourse be-
tween Texas and the great States north
of us. With almost Chinese wall
around their reservations they interpose
vigorous objections always to the march
of civilization provided it attempts to 20
that way. The old treaties made quar-
ter of century ago are the bulwarks
upon which they depend for the perpet-
uation of their vast landed monopoly of
the finest section of the United States
and the maintenance of their race pref
udices and exclusiveness.
But the barrier must go. hedemands
of trade and civilization cannot be re-
FUSED on the poor ground that old
treaties have given semi-civilized lot
of Indians the right to the exclusive oc-
cupancy ofthe thousands of square miles
comprised within the Indian Territory.
Congress in dealing with this question
had no difficulties in disposing of those
objections urged by the Indians. The
agents Of the Government had no right
to barter away the Governments right
OF eminent domain. The Government
itself cannot divest itself of this right.
1t is necessary at all times that the right
should be retained and any treaty of
whatever character that contemplates
by direct or indirect terms the cession
of this right is void as to that feature,
unless the territory is absolutely cedcd
to another sovereignty. A Government
without the retention of the right of en-
inent domain over its territory ceases to
be absolutely sovereign and
puts itself at the mercy of
tribes or individuals in seasons
perhaps of the most trying emergencies.
The railways to which these rights
were granted and the people of this
State and section especially, to whom
the utilization Of the grants is such vi
tai necessity, need feel no apprehension
as to the building OF these roads. The
barriers have been swept away, and we
may anticipate within the next five
years or ten a half dozen great through
lines from Colorado, Kansas and Mis-
souri, to Texas, whore now are only two,
and they under one management. Six
other bills praying for right-of-way
through this territory remain Enacted
on before Congress, two of them being
iavorably reported from committee al-
ready, and II is now but question of
time until we have magnificent facilities
in North Texas for getting east, west
and north.
The Indian satraps and cattle syndi.
Gates and white men who have got into
the Territory and monopoliled its adj
and who dread the whistle OF
the locomotive, may fight these grants
To their hearts content, they cannot
beat back the great march of trade and
civiliZatisn.

offensive to the citizens. A public meet
ing was held at that place, presided
over by the Rev. Mr.. ZINN, in which
MIR. WILMErH was denounced in I'M
sparing terms. The Reverend gentle
man overstepped the bounds of pro.
