THERE has been quite AN agitation OF
railroad from san Antonio up through
the country northwest, and several
points are now figuring with the San
Antonio and Arkansas Pass roaD for iIs
line. The main question to be settled
In all the conferences Is the amount oil
bonus that can he raised By the people
up there, aud the amount that railroad
arrangement will accept. Those people
claim that they have always traded In
san Antonio, land that they will continue
TO do so, but that they want San An
tonic capitalists and business men to
help them raise the amount Of bonus
needed, and that If they do not, their
trade will be diverted into other chan
nels, and the road and the city can make
the most of IL. On the other hand.
whenever there has been any talk of
northwest road. the southern Pacific
people have always sent agents TO the
field land the present time is no eXcep-
ttun), wherein they promised that they
would put a branch road up through
that country, and they would ask but
little, II any. bonus. These promises
have heretofore had their full effect,
especially when in connection with pre-
liminary surveys, and the result was
that railroad agitation TO the Northwest
would be dropped. The people there
are now between two fires. so to speak.
The Arkansas road asks them to give
Il bonus that is beyond their reach, and
the slim possibility Of san An Antonio
helping out Is 50 remote that 1t Is about
out of the question. The Southern Pa
cihc can build line without any bonus,
as they have frequently unoillclally
| promised, II they so desire, snd just
now the necessity of such line is daily
becoming apparent to them. The LIGHT
speaks Of the matter here simply In the
interest OF the people, because II uppre-
ciates the fact that line up to the
Northwest will benefit san Antonio, no
matter who builds it, and IL rests with
those people to judge who to depend
upon in the matter.

That portion OF Vanderbilt's will In
which he directs that his bonds and Sc
ourities should be held and not sold for
the benefit of his heirs, was undoubtedly
a very fortunate thing for the financial
world. The uncertainty Of what would
be the disposal Of these securities had
its effect Immediately on the death OF
the great millionaire, but now that they
are not forced on the market, everybody
breathes freely, and thus quite a Imam
cial crisis was avoided.

Now is the time to plant your trees
and shrubbery, so as to get the benefit
Of the winter rains. Some effort should
be made to appoint an arbor day some
time In January, and trees planted In
public parks and drives, Nothing will
pay larger Interest to ourselves and
posterity. Dig your holes large and
deep, ana see that the tap root has not
been cut. Put in little compost or
manure, as even in the black waxy land
it will make the soil more lively, and
strengthen the growth Of the tree.
