The state constitution Of Missouri
prohibits the consolidation of CON-
peting railroad lines, and fight is
going to be made in the state courts
to break up the great Southwestern
pool. 1t is argued by the states at
torney that pool is in effect con-
solidation of interests of competing
lines, and hence is obnoxious to the
spirit of the above mentioned clause
of the state constitution and it is
further argued that the railroads
composing the pool received aid from
the state, counties or municipalities
with the understanding that there
should be wholesome competition
in rates and business between them.
The attorney-general of the state has
accordingly begun suit in Kansas
City against all Missouri railroads in
the pool mentioned, demanding its
dissolution, and an order prohibiting
any and all of them from entering
into any bargain or combination to
divide business. The case will be
tried in October. The people of the
whole country will earnestly hope
that the ground taken by the attorney
general may be upheld.

MAINE.

The Republicans carried Maine, as
was expected, but the returns show
decided Republican losses, due in the
main to the Probibitionists. The in
consistency of Gen. Neal Dow pres
ent with his former position in re-
gard to the enforcement of prohibi-
ton in Maine, and the vigorous
speeches of Mr.. Blaine, undoubtedly
kept down the vote of the Prohibi-
tionists, yet it is surprisingly large
for separate prohibition party in
State that has enjoyed the blessings
of prohibition for a generation.
In addition to the Safe ticket
and majority of the Legislature, the
Republicans have reelected oil four
of the present Congressman. Gen.
Dingley ran far ahead of his ticket,
and Tom Reed pulled through, as
usual. Mr.. Reed has good luck as
we'll as brains.
The Maine election has a lesson of
alarm and warning for the Republi-
cans in other States. If, in spite Of
Mr. Blaine's brilliant and vigorous
leadership, the Prohibitionists are so
determined and numerous in prohibi-
ton Maine, may they not work Sc
rious and perhaps fatal damage to
the Republican party in New York
and even in Pennsylvania.

Kiss Me, Toe.

But, if there was diplomacy and
presence of mind shown in this
answer, how much more was there in
the case of the young lady who sat in
an aclove at an evening party with q
bright, young military man, her little
niece on her knee to play propriety.
Suddenly the company is electrified
by the exclamation of the child:
"Kiss me, too, Aunt Alice!'
But the sudden shock is succeeded
by feeling of relief as Aunt Alice
calmly replies:
"You should not say, Kiss me
two,' dear; you should say, Kiss me
twice."

Fenced The Track,

There was trouble on the Mont
gomery fair ground Tuesday, U.
s. Marshal fencing the home stretch
from the rest of the race track, so
that no mile races could be made.
The amount of ground staked off was
IL acres, that land being in litigation.
Half-mile races were run on the un-
fenced portion of the track, but no
mile races will he had until to-day, a
new track being made by the enter
prising directors, who worked men
and teams steadily night and day
since the track was fenced. The
Montgomery standard, speaking Of
the affair, says:
The .. S. Marshal, as had been re-
ported, put in his appearance at the
fair grounds yesterday morning. He
staked off the ground, 12 acres, be-
longing to the Pearl heirs and turned
it over to Henry Clark. The latter,
during the afternoon, proceeded to
build fence across the track, cut
ting off all of the home stretch, SO
that no mile races could take place.
This was completed just before the
races we're called.
The half-mile heat race then tool
place by starting at the music stand
and running around the east side Of
the track, the outcome being at the
north end. The mile trot was post
poned.
The directors at once laid off 6
track alongside. Of the line set off by
the q. S. Marshal, and went to worl
to make new track, which was com
pleted Wednesday, so that no race,
will be interfered with during the
remainder Of the week.
We understand that the U. S. cour
will be in session in ST. Louis mex
week, and that the division of tn,
ground agreed upon will then be ap
proved, and the litigation which ha
caused SO much acrimonious feelin:
will be at an end.
This ends this child's play bust
ness and the fair will proceed a
il no interruption had ever been at
tempted.

Dead-LOcks.
From the CIarksville Sentinel.


Dead-locks are sometimes as un-
avoidable as they are unfortunate,
and it does not follow, therefore, that
they necessarily lead to dislntegra-
ton or final disruption of the party.
We shall not expect the Congressional
deadlock IN this district to change a
single Democratic vote. Why should
it? We never knew SO decided a
disagreement to produce SO little i'll
will. To be sure it puts the party
within the district upon o momentary
strain, but the effects of it will soon
pass away and peace and concord
endure.

Texas Needs Helm.

Mrs. G. b. Maefarlane told us
Monday to find out whether Charles
ton or Texas needed help the worst.
We wrote letters to both places and
clip the following from the st. Louis
Post Dispatch about Texas:
Our correspondent places the des-
titute in Palo Pinto County, Texas,
at 1000, another says there are l.
500 starving in Eastland county, and
5000 are without any hope to live
through the coming winter in Run
nels county.
Mrs. Ruth Nichols, who has lust
returned from Runnels County, was
seen by reporter of the Post Dis
patch last evening. She said: 81
am glad to hear something has been
done for Runnels County. know of
the suffering there, for l saw 1t. The
people are in desperate condition.
] cannot imagine how they will get
through the winter. There are num-
Der of causes contributing to this dis
tress, but the chief is drouth for two
seasons. There was no rain in Run
nels county to amount to anything
for eighteen months up to July.
There was only shower in March,
and then in July-late in the month
there was heavy sand storm that
demolished houses and added to the
distress. A ten minutes shower of
rain followed this storm, but the
ground was so burnt out by that
time that nothing could be raised. In
addition to this lack of rain in that
part of Texas, they suffer from hot
winds. At nine O'Clock every morn
ing hot wind comes up and blows
until 5 O'Clock in the afternoon. 1t
dries every bit of moisture in its
track. Persons who are exposed to
it for long time suffer from enor-
mously swelled eyeballs and often
lose their sight entirely. The ladies
keep closely within doors and powder
savagely to avoid the awful sensation
of the heat. Without rain, and these
! hot winds blowing every day, any
country would be parched and burn
ed hard as brick. Winter is coming,
and Texan winters are not easy to
bear. They have days quite as cold
are experienced in St. Louis, with
now, and cold rains. They have
little clothing indeed. Two years
trying to establish themselves, trying
to make themselves independent, has
entirely worn out their limited stock
of clothes. Unless they are helped
they will starve and freeze to death.
There is no work for them to do. The
day Of the cattle-boy is nearly gone.
Wire fenced ranges have lessened
the number of men needed from an
army to handful Then, in MAY
the stockmen drove all their cattle
out of the counties where there has
been such terrible drouth. They an
ticipated lack of water and grass.
"You would be surprised at the
small amount those Texan farmers
can exist on. I was there six years
ago during the other great drouth
There were not half the people there
you would now find. Runnels county
is only 6 years old, CALLAHAN is only
8; all the counties in that section are
new. 1 thought then the people could
not pull through, but they did man.

can tell. They'are used to hardship
and privation, and when they ask fol
help you may know they need it."
