The Waco Free Bridge.

WACO, Dec. 15.-The people OF this
county at the last primary election de-
cided by an overwhelming vote that it
was better to have free bridge over
the Brazos river at this place. The
county commissioners who were elect
ed at the same time the bridge matter
was voted on were expected, as soon
as they were installed, to take some
action in this dire1tion. This question
has been discussed at this meeting of
that body, and it now seems that there
will be none until the February term
of the commissioners court.

The citizens of Paradise, little

covered it. A company has already
been organized to sink shaft and see
what can be done with the mine.

CLEBURNE, Dec. 15.--A committee
man from Brown county is here soli-

county. He did not realize much,
however, as most of the counties of

can care for their own suffering peo-
pie. Cleburne has already given freely

perhaps why he did not have better
success. The name Of the gentleman

barometer which indicates lower at
mosphcric pressure to-day than during

heavy, continued storm. Two years
ago when the railroad was blocked
for weeks, this instrument registered
nearly as low as to day, and remain, d
there for six consecutive days. If the
barometer can be relied upon for
predicting storms in this mountainous
country, big snowfall may be antic.

THE SILVER QUESTION.

- hOtNA va AhAS cdUJEct AiVua thc
Secretary Of the National Bi.Metallic
Coinage Association.
WAsHrsorox. D. c.. January 9th. 1886.
Col. G. L. Ravens, Bullion. Idaho
MY DEAR SIR: l have to thank
you for your favor of the 18th ult.
have not yet had the pleasure of meet.
ing Mr.. HALEY, Idaho's delegate to
Congress-; but hope to soon.
Senator Beck's speech has attracted
the most widespread attention and
has accomplished great good. The
fact that he does not hail from sill
yer producing State is vastly in our
favor, and secures for the argument
he advances great deal more of con
sideration than the same argument
would have it presented by a man oil
the extreme West. Senator GRAY, OF
Delaware, has given notice that he
will to-day, or at some future time, re.
ply to that speech, and | am informed
upon excellent authority that he has
been selected by the monometallists
as their champion upon the Demo.
cratic side of the Senate; and in max.
ing his speech, | am assured that he
has had the assistance of Secretaries
Manning and Bayard.
Finally, | may say that the outlook
is good; yet, however, the fact re.
mains that so per cent. of the mem
bers of Congress who are counted
upon as silver men do not know wha,
they want. They are almost wholly
uninformed upon the subject, and i,
is our business to furnish them the in.
formation which they lack. 1t mus,
be done point by point. Many Of
them must be instructed as you would
instruct child, beginning with the
alphabet. This work is laborious and
necessltates some expense. Much
good can be effected by building fires
in their rear, that is to say, by ell.
tightening their constituents at home
and having petitions pouring in upon
them from men whose votes they wan,
in the future. This, IN a great mum
Der of cases, will be almost absolutel,
necessary, and to perform this work
requires money. Is the Territory Of
Idaho gong to be able to render any
assistance?
You are at liberty to make such
use Of this letter as you sec fit; and il
it will be any benefit to the cause
you have my permission to publish it
am, cir, very respectfully, yours,
M. II. SLATER,
Secretary.
