HAVING exhausted every other scheme
regarding the proposed Arkansas railroad,
the Cuero Star thinks connection with
that place would be the most proper
thing to do, and says: "The San Antonio
and Arkansas Pass railroad continues as
the standby theme Of San Antonio
papers, but there is no Indication ofpro-
gress In its building. 1t Is about timeto
commence that road or switch of on
connection with Cuero. Seventy-iive
miles Of road over a remarkably level
country would place San Antonio In
direct communication with deep water
via Cuero, and the road would run
through country unsurpassed for stock
raising and farming pursuits, all OF
which would be made tributary to San
Antonio. The people Of Cuero and
along the route would contribute liber-
ally toward Its building"

them on record on the tariff question,
which 1t sums up as follows: "Of the Go

confident that the opponents of proteo-

70 new Democratic representatives, re-

Der. Twelve OF them are for protec-

IS CONNECTION with the approaching
Inauguration Of President Cleveland,
two papers promised for the March
Harper's will have especial interest.
One of the treasures Of the library Of
Mr.. Tilden is good-slzed book, bound
in calf, filed up in the handwriting Of
Thomas Jefferson. 1t is the financial
diary of the great man, kept by him
from January |, 1901, while he was Sec
rotary of State, up to 1903, covering thus
the first two years of his Presidency.
Among its entries Is careful summary
OF oil his expenses from March |, 1901,
to March !, 1902, showing an expendit-
ure of S32,634 81, the various elements
of which are given in detail. jefferson
had as great dislike of presents as Mr..
Cleveland, and even insisted upon pay
ing the duty on certain wine procured
from the Spanish Minister, who had
imported 1t duty free for his own use.
He also paid 10 cents pound for
monster cheese, evidently sent to him
as president. The interesting paper
drawn from the material of this diary
is from the pen OF Hon. John Bigelow.
The other paper referred to is one on
manifest Destiny" by Professor John
Fiske.

SOME one in writing about the much
abused 20 cent piece, said it was the
"lshmael Of coins, and the hand of every
man should be against it," The only
sure and quick way to detect it is by
feeling Of the edge, but in these anti
prohibition days there are lots of fellows
who could not tell 20 cent piece from
full moon, even by feeling it. 1t should
be abolished by all means.

The Philadelphia Times says: "There
was one really noticeable feature about
the conduct of the men who went TO
New York last week to see the Presi-
dent-elect. The Southern men behaved
best. 1t has so often been said since
the election that the States recently in
rebellion would be greedy and unrea-
sonable. that their conduct upon this
occasion was closely noted. There was
no appearance Of arrogance or the
assumption Of their right to patron age
The Western and even Eastern men
were more clamorous and tenacious in
their pursuit of spoils than these men
from that part Of the country which
furnishes the bulk Of Democratic votes.
Indeed the people from the South seemed
to treat the occasion with becoming dig
nifty, and appeared to care very little
about talking politics. In the new life
that has come to them RS the result Of
war their greatest concern seems to be
for the material prosperity of the
country"

WRITING OF the recent sensational re-
ports regarding trouble between Mex
leans and Americans In Dlmmitt and
Maverick counties, the Eagle Pass Jour-
nal very senslbly observes: ave cannot
believe that anything more than the
stopping of the depredations OF these
thieves will grow out Of the present
trouble. That there will be any conflict
between any large bodies OF men Is alb
surd. Here in Eagle Pass all is as quiet
as If nothing had occurred, and no one
gives evidence to flying reports about
large bodies OF depredntors. II the re-
ports are circulated to advertise the
country with the belief that 1t were bet
ter to speak badly of place than not
to mention 1t at all, then there may be
some excuse for the present excitement;
but we cannot view it In that light and
think these sensational reports will in
jure us more than do us good"

OK THE subject Of the Arkansas road
the Floresville Chronicle says: Soap
tain Jones, of Beeville. passed through
town this week on his way to San
Antonio to confer with the directors Of
the San Antonio and Arkansas Pass rail-
road, for the purpose of inducing the
company to go by the west side of the
river. lie says the citizens OF Bee
county will take stock to the amount of
100000 rs an induoement, but we
hardly think they WILL The Chronicle
has many friends in Bee, but can't be
expected to pull on that string now.
There is certainly not doubt but that a
road via Floresville, Helena and Goliad
would pay better than any other route to
the coast and we think the directors will
look to the future interest Of the road as
paying investment to the stockholders
rather than be Influenced by donations
or stock, which will merely go for the
building of the road on line that can
not furnish that local traffic SO necessary
to the successful operation of railroads"

A grand temperance rally was held
at the Catholic church, on Sunday
evening at 1880 p. m. The church
WIS filed. Messrs Corrigan and
Carerre spoke to the gathering, elo-
quently and lengthlly, on the evils OF
intemperance and the good of total
abstinence, and Mr.. Corrigan, in his
lecture brought forth a logical and
very forcible argument on the neces-
sity of high license. Their evening
work was crowned with unqualified
success. At the conclusion of the
meeting, forty-four men and boys
took the pledge for one year. Father
Lance concluded the work of the
evening with a few appropriate re
marks. in thanks to the gentlemen
who have volunteered their time ard
labor. without recompense, in so
good cause, and with words Of graf
itude and encouragement to the
forty-four who had shown their APP
probation of the good work, and re-
solved to profit thereby. The meet
