The Rockport Transcript, in an arti-
Gle on the proposed Gulf road, very
truly says: "Many Of the newspapers
published in the cities which will re-
ceive no benefit from the proposed
road to Arkansas Pass from San Antonio
are opposed to its construction. Their
only argument is that the road will
cause Rockport TO increase IN size until
she will be regarded as rival city Of
San Antonio. They advise San Anto-
mans to be quiet and undertake no en-
terprise that will cause their town to be
enrolled among the future great cities
of Texas, for fear some other place will
thereby receive an impulse Of activity
and become prosperous. These journals
would have San Antonio sacrifice her
own interests In order to prevent Rock
port from being benefited by the road.
The road will OF course benefit Rock
port to certain extent, but at the same
time 1t will be Of vital importance to
San Antonio. The real truth is, San
Antonio is stretching her arms of steel
In the wrong direction to suit the inter
ests OF those journals. It Is a DISPOSE
tion OF genuine selflshEess and cussed
meanness that prompts such actions"

Wheat harvest has commenced in this dis
trict, and promises, should the weather prove
favorable to gather it, to be the largest aver
age yield for many years. The selt-binder
appears to sell as readily as sewing machine.
About sixty were unloaded here, and the
farmer who put off until the last moment to
buy machine is now sweating and swearing
around the depot because he cannot get one
in time. Others are losing valuable time in
the field by the machines being carelessly put
together by incompetent men. Then, too,
there is a corner in Irvine; the thermometer
in the nineties; wheat in the nineties, too;
Vennor dead and the Washington weather
man very uncertain. These, with the fertil-
izer bills in the near future, cast a big shadow
on the wheat fields.
There was a test on Tuesday on Mr.. Frank

Edward covers Adventure.

From the Bdttimere Sun Of Tuesday.
Philip Weiss, George Arnrich and Alex
ander KONG were indicted together for rob-
berry of Edward Cover, of Carroll county, of
a silver watch and chain. Weiss was granted
a severance and was tried alone. Cover, a
tall country youth. testified that he came to
Baltimore last April to enlist in the United
States Army, but was rejected on account of
his youth, not being 20 years old. He met
the youths Weiss, KONG and Arnrich and had
several drinks at different saloons, playing
cards and pool for drinks. He paid each
time, as he was the only one of the party who
had money and he knew nothing about cards.
They played seven-up. He was stopping at
the Mansion House, and as he started up an
alley from Calvert to St. Paul street, between
Lexington and Saratoga. the three compan-
ions hustled and jerked him back, and snatch
ing his watch and chain and hat, they fed.
They were arrested next day by Sergeant
Reinhardt and officer Hardesty, and the
watch was returned by Mr.. Hecht, pawn
broker, on North Howard street, who had
loaned Arnrick So on it. KONG testified that
he had the watch and gave it to Arnrich to
raise money on, and that Weiss had the chain.
Arnrich testified to the same effect, and said
he got 81 and KONG 81 out of the S.. The
jury found Weiss guilty.
