Last Thursday Captain Lommons,
of Dallas, and Captain Harris, the
chief engineer OF tho Dallas 4 North

our citizens congregated at the court

The meeting was organized by calling

the people OF Decatur will respond
with that degree OF nDsr-

characteristic of them we will beyond
doubt secure tho road. in which event
Decatur will speedily become city OF

Dallas n City.

The HERALD, few days ago, pub
lished an account Of the business, inn
proyements, etc., Of Dallas, for the
year just past. 1t is most creditable
showing, and one of which north
Texas as we'll as the people of Dallas
may feel proud. The extraordinary
fact Is disclosed that $1,G00,000 were
expended in the erection of new
buildings, and that the gen.
ersl trade amounted to Sl5,-
100000. Truly such progress and
business is wonderful, especially when
il is remembered that the period
covers the dullest season known for
years, at least in Texas. Dallas is be.
yond the reach of rivals In this show
ing, but is not yet content,and is just
now preparing to build another railroad
to the coal fields of North Texas. No
such impetus to improvement and
trade has ever been witnessed by her
citizens, as this fact will give, and this
fact appears well understood by those
| Interested.
An important factor in this grand
progress in the past, and also with
reference to what Dallas shall BIO in
the future, is The DALLAS HERALD.
By dint of lavish expenditures of
money and great energy tnat paper
has achieved marvellous things in the
dissemination of news and to-day is
SO necessary to all classes of people
that it is found in the business houses
and homes OF East, Northeast, North
west, West and Southwest Texas, a
welcome and Influential visitor.
With this journal, which is not
less anomalous in it's success than
the city itself, to point out needed inn
provements and battle for their con-
summation, no wonder Dallas has
grown and expanded, and reached out
Tor a trade that is colossal in its pro-
portions, and will one day make her a
FULL grown queen OF the southwest.
Dallas owes her prominence and great
ness to the unflagging efforts OF THE
HERALD, more than to any one cause,
and THE HERALD owes much. too,and
is proud of Dallas Longview Demo

AVOID POLITICAL BUMMiNG.

There is something pitisble, were it
not nauseating, to see an able: bodied
msn in the prime and vigor Of intel
lectual and physical manhood, fos-
SLICED into an office that re
gets because this is "a busy
world and people so intent upon their
own affairs do not stop to scrutinize
the "drift" OF things generally. Such
a spectacle suggests incapaclty to at.
tend to ones own affairs, failure and
general incompetency. A man who
can't manage his own affairs should
not undertake the management of the
peoples. There are some cases where
man is peculiarly fitted for g. certain
office; natural Qualifications seem to en-
title him to it. In local affairs where
the people vote for their officials the
evil is not so pronounced :but 1t is there
nevertheless. 1t is when the appoint
ing powers donate the "spoils' that
the ice-holding maniac "gets in his
work." The chronic office-holder Ia
becoming prominent American
character and offers new field for the
dramatist. They are sycophantic, in
sincere, and, like the Irlshman's flea,
when you want them you can't find
them. Every young man should learn
some trade or profession, and be pre-
pared to fill position Of public trust
when called upon. 1t is sad sight to
see imam a leach upon the public
money bag, yet these leeches are con-
stantly coming up year by year from
the ranks Of the political bummers.-

The State argued that this ordinance

Legislature had specially delegated "a
the city the right TO control It's own az

egation of power superseded the State
law within the city limits; that the
same was perfectly constitutional
and the Legislature had the
right 10 delegate 10 the city such a
power and had acted wisely In so
doing; that the very object OF special

else why the necessity OF special laws
that tho question was not which IL tho

About Que year ago Judge Johnson
defeated tho case OF the State VS.. An

Meeting of the fire Department,

Pursuant to a call there WAS u meet
ing OF tho various companies OF the
tire department held Saturday night
at tho city hall 10 consider the matter
OF asking tho City Council! 10 create a
paid lire department..
The object of tho meeting was
stated by the president, after which j..
II. Tooley, secretary, offered tho iol-
lowing resolution;
Resolved, That "A committee OF ono
from each company be appointed 10
petition the City Council that they
so change their proposed ordinance as
20 read in substance as follows: The
Dire department shall elect at their an
nual meeting chief and assistant
chief, subject TO tho confirmation OF
the Council, and each company snail
elect their paid men, consisting OF
engineers, drivers, etc., all snbJect, 10
The president appointed the
following = committees: l.. f..
Bohny, of engine No. L;
J. 4. Tooley, of Engine Company No.
.; +. w. Linskie, OF Hook and Ladder
No, 1, and Frank Fee, CT 4Etna Hose
Company. On motion the president
was added TO the committee. A
lengthy speech was made by Mr..
Tooiey in favor of the resolution. He
stated that he we'll knew that the City
Council desired TO do everything that
was reasonable for the department
and that the department should act In
concert and not separate companies,
in order that the department. and
Council might understand each other
and act intelligently and harmoni,
ously. The resolution was discussed
at length and adopted.
Secretary Tooley then offered q reso-
luton requiring each company 10
meet by the lst OF July and make out
a list Of their true, active members
and furnish the same 10 the secretary
of the department at once ana also
sry additional members. The secre-
tsry's reason for this was that Mt the
coming election no one could claim
vote except true tiremen.
Mr.. Maxim, chief OF the Fort worth
department, being present, was calleo
upon for speech, to which he very
pleasantly responded, and suggested
that IL Dallas had no water tor tires ne
would turn loose his artesian VOL on
our city.
a motion was made that the DEPART
ment turn out on the Fourth Of July.
One gentleman objected to turning out
at every show, to which Mr.. Blakeney
(Fine) responded in laundering tones
that the Fourth was no scent show, but
the grandest day in American history.
No action WAS taken, as the invitation
had been sent to the companies sepa-
rately.

Observance of the Sunday Law.

The city Sunday law was, generally
speaking, rigidly observed Sunday be-
tween the hours of 8 a. m. and A p. m.
by the saloons and other places of re-
freshment, which, with two exceptions,
kept closed. The police were wide
awake, pursuant to instructions, and
enforced the law and fully discharged
their duty. Cornilto Hunille, saloon
ist on Main Street just west OF the
market house, and Pat Conerty, sa-
loonist corner OF Elm Street and the
Texas Central track, were arreste d on
the charge of violating the city Sun
day law. There is disposition to OBJ
serve fully the city Sunday law both
on the part of the public and those sell
ing, in as much as it is compromise
on the strict State Sunday law.

The "Eolectic Ouartette."

For some time past number OF our
most prominent amateur vocalists
have endeavored to make perma-
nent organization of vocal quartette
that would assure recreation and en-
joyment. promote the cultivation OF a
better class of music, and, at the same
time, reflect credit upon the amateur
pleasure to state that the laudable eff
forts of these gentlemen have been
crowned with success. The quartette
comprises the following names, with
which the musical people of Dallas
are familiar: S. Beck, First Tenor;
d. w. Douglas, Second Tenor; Will
Gleason, First Bass; George Potter,
Second Bass. With such talent, cou-
pied with determination to excel, we
predict brilliant career for the "Ec-
lectic Club"

Headquarters Coming.

1t 10 q fact that the headquarters or
the entire Gould system OF railroads. in
Texas are to be located in Dallas. The
Nineteenth Legislature at its late ses-
sion passed an sct putting into effect
the constitutional mandate that al
railroads in tho State should have
their headquarters and principal offices
at some point in the State, and this
law goes into effect 90 days from the
adjournment OF the Legislature, when
is at 12 M, June 20. The headquarters
and principal Offices of the Gould sys-
tenn, except the land department, which
is already at Dallas, are at
st. Louis, but under this act, head
quarters and all offices must be In
Texas. The Gould system includes
the Missouri Pacific, International q
Great Northern and Texas Pacific
roads, and the departments are neces-
sarily large. The principal offices are
those OF the general tariff manager,
general passenger agent, general SUI
perintendent, general managers
Office, auditors Office, land ofiice, etc.
The management requiring quite
building, and the citizens of Dallas
either by erecting suita-
BILE bic x building S or , Sy old rental ssn
Jacinto part, has been suggested as
the proper place, and if it can be had
it 10 not improbable it will be
selected. Dallas will do all she
ought in the premises at the proper
time. The location of these headquar-
ters and Office will rebound greatly to
the advantage OF our city in many re-
spects, and it shows wisdom on the
part OF the Gould management that
Dallas, the railroad and commercial
centre of the whole State, it may be
said, has been selected. II is also ru-
mored that the repair shops will be
brought to Dallas.

WA IL Suicide2

Yesterday morning, at $50 o'clock,
Mrs. Oliver, the wife OF DR.. Oliver, a
travelling dentist, residing at the cor
ner OF Swiss avenue and Good street,
died rather suddenly and under such
peculiar circumstances as to lead to
The belief that she was poisoned. She
was taken i'll Tuesday and DR.. Meeks
called and administered medi-
cine. She appeared to suffer
great deal. Yesterday morning
she grew worse, and DR.. Bibb was
called in with DR.. Meeks, and later
DR.. Leake. They found her in con-
vulsions similar to those produced by
strychnine. The conyulsions contin-
ued until $3.50 when death came to her
relief. The physicians are in doubt as
to the cause Of her death and the prob
abilities are that an inquest will be
held, though up to late hour Justice
Kendall has not been notified. just
before her death she said, ooh, Lord,
forgive me-"

Not Hurt.

The rumor in the city yesterday that
Jim Taylor, the county convict who
escaped about a week ago from the
guard while working on the Lancaster
road was shot when he ran off, proves
to be untrue. A friend of Taylor, who
lives here, has received letter from
him written in the Indian Territory, in
which he details his escape and says he
pretended when running off, at the
crack of each barrel that he was hit to
keep the guards from shooting any
more for fear they might kill or wound
him. Furthermore the guards do not
load their guns with squirrel-shot. He
says he boarded freight train at
Hutchins, and hiding. away, passed
through Dallas the night of his escape
and went on to the Indian Territory. I.

Orders ON City Sunday Law.

Before adjourning the Mayors
Court following the receipt of the de-
cision Oh the Sunday law question by
the Court of Appeals, Msyor Brown
addressed himself to the marshal and
entire police, announcing the result.
He admonished them that the city law
being thus pronounced legal and con-
stitutional, no excuse now exists for
evasion or equivocation in its enforce
ment, and that every man on the force
was expected to act in good faith in
the matter. The same rule must be
applied to all. No favoritism for one
person or house over another must be
shown, but all must comply with the
law as it. liz, in letter and spirit. Its
violation, wherever known, must be
followed by arrest and complaint.
Thus and thus only can the police per-
form their full duty and merit the pub
lie confidence.s
