Birch and Cotton

A good house greeted Birch and
Cotton's Minstrels at the Opera
House last evening, and listened to
an excellent performance. 1t is far
easier to speak of the general excel
lence Of the troupe than it is to
find fault with any part Of the per-
Torrance. The singing was excel
lent and their joke: new, and their
temperance in Woodland at some
future day would assure them q full

THE New York Herald of the
3Oth ult., says that that two great
combinations have been formed to
control the entire soft-coal output
of the country. They have not
only advanced the price, but they
will say how much coal shall be
mined, who shall mine it, what
railroads shall carry it and in what
quantities, and what the freight
charges shall be. This promises
to be the greatest monopoly ever
undertaken in this country and if
it is carried out legislation will
certainly be required to put a stop
to 1t. The idea of the coal combi-
nation is to do away entirely with
competition, which is the only
thing that will regulate the prices
of any commodity. OF late years
there has been a disposition to
pool issues in many branches OF
business. The nail mills of the
country have a combination and
control the prices of nails and it is
also said the barbed wire men have
a similar combination.

in place of bows for the middle OF

There is very great variety in
these fans, the fat ones being in
all sizes, from 4 few inches to three
or four feet across, while the fold.
ing fans arc nearly rs large, some
OF them being used as fircscrcens
and having little standards, in
which the fans are set when spread,
There are some exquisite speei-
mems of Japanese embroidery on
Grape and silk shown in fan
mounts, especially in the fiat fans,
where the work is alike on both
sides ami mounted on hoop OF
frame. A good many of these fans
have been cut up and the embroi-
derod part used in other ways
for fancy work and many orna-
mental purposes for which it is es-
peclally suitable.

A UNITED Labor party is being
organized at Chicago for political
purposes: Here is a portion of the
obligation; 81 hereby declare that
1 have ceased to be a member of
the Republican or Democratic par
ty, believing such party organiza-
tions to be irretrievably corrupt
and their continued existence a
menace to liberty, and declare my
belief in the necessity for politi-
cal organization of the United La
Dor party, and hereby offer to that
party and its members cordial aid
and support" The right to organ
ize a political party can not be
questioned, but experience IN the
past has taught that no party form
ed in the interest of one class SIS
against another can possibly sue
coed. Laws must be made that
will bear equally upon all and no
law can be made IN the interest of
one class without expressing some
other class, hence it is that class
legislation has always been unpop-
ular.

The Galveston News lately con-
tanned an editorial advising the
erection of refrigerator slaughter
houses at Galveston. The Victoria
Advocate replies that there are al
ready four well equipped slatgh-
ter houses in Texas, tho points
supplied being. Victoria, Column
bus, Eagle Pass and Fort Worth,
all of which have been idle for
months, except the Columbus es-
adjustment, which is now engag-
ed on an experimental cargo of
meat for the London market. The
Advocate attributes the failure of
the slaughter houses to the exhor-
bitant rates of freight demanded
by the railways. At the present
prices of fat cattle, the best quality
of dressed beef may be delivered
IN the cars at Victoria for 5 cents
per pound or even less. If fair
rates of freight could be had to
northern markets they might be
supplied. Atpresent the railroads
exact every cent the traffic can
bear instead of reducing treights
and encouraging the enterprise.

RALLKAKS COMPANIES.

The LaGrange Journal thinks
that the prospects are excellent for
LAGRANGE TO get the Waco branch
of the Arkansas Pass railway, which
at present is mapped out to run via
Cuero, Glddings and Cameron to
Waco, and also from Halletsville
through Columbus TO a convenient
point at or about Sealy. Brennan
connot afford to be fanked by the
Waco branch road, west and south
and will have tofbestir herself to
secure a connection with this line
which now promises to control q
complete system of railways In the
Southwestern portion of Texas.
The San Antonio and Arkansas Pass
railway company is now upon a
solid footing and is IN a position to
make all extensions that 1t may
deem advisable. 1t promises to be
to San Antonio and Corpus Christi
what the Santa Fe is to Galveston,
Dallas and Fort Worth. The won
derful progress made by the Santa
Fe road during the past three
years show what proper push and
enterprise on the part of the
management of a railway can ac-
complish. Galveston undertook
the building of the Santa Fe rail-
way single handed and completed
miles enough to get start by is
suing bonds. The same course was
pursued by the Arkansas Pass rail
way. Brennan by building the
Brennan and Brazos Valley rail
way for some miles will be enabled
to issue bonds and them extend
the line indefinitely. The town
that desires railroads must first
help itself and then it can get all
the help it needs. The condition
of business in Brenham this fall has
certainly been such as to demon
strate the fact that something must
be done, and done speedily, If
Brennan expects to hold her own
as Q commercial center. No town
in the interior of Texas is better
situated or has better, If as good,
territory surrounding it. The
fact is there has been too much
apathy here, every man has been
looking out simply for himself and
no united effort looking to an ex.
tension of our trade has been made,
and in the meanwhile trade that
might by a united effort have been
retained here has been allowed TO
find q market at Caldwell, Navaso-
ia and BellvIIle. It is a well es-
tablished fact that every market
-'nst seek the trade 1t desires. A
Ia
town tbo+ MO 'ts trade from q dis
lance must let it advan,, ' ~
known. Brennan is not by any
means dead, but strong and united
effort must be made for her advan-
tage, and this can be accomplished
by railway building-the Brennan
and Brazos Valley railway can and
must be speedily built.
