sssRs. EDITORS REFLECTOR :

MESSRS. EDITORS REFLECTOR
Gentlemen Il see by the action of
the City Council an election is ordered
Dec. 3lst, 1856, for the purpose of ex-
tending aid to one of the proposed rail-
roads, to the amount of $4,000 in
bonds; to be used by said railroad in
purchasing the right of way and depot
ground in and through our city. 1t is
a query to me why aid has not been eX-
tended by our city to Mr.. BOnebrake in
giving us our system of water works
and the Incandescent Electric light,
and Mr.. Hurd for his system of street
railway. If aid is to be extended to
one enterprise, why not extend it to all,
and particularly where the parties are
our own people? Are the people able to
stand the taxation necessary to bring
about these new reforms? Why do
these men put their money into such
enterprises is it for the accOnlmOda-
ton of the public, without any hope of
reward, or for selfish gain ? if for the
former, the city ought to extend the
aid if for the latter, it ought not.
Corporations, companies and even In
dividuals are seldom known to divide
profits with the people, but, on the con-
trary, exact the last pound of flesh.
But why grant aid to railroads further
haven't we already voted 1915, 900 and
$50, 900 ? making total of 1926 600.
Alarge sum of money to make dependent
upon the taxable property of our comfy,
and Abilene is bound for its share when
the roads are built, and if we vote 500
900 bonds in aid of right of way and
depot grounds, will be bound for that
amount additional. Why is this prOpO-
sitiOn for aid sprung upon us at this
time who has asked it and when? At
the time the proposition to grant aid to
the railroads was submitted, why was
not also the $50, 900 submitted? These
questions are asked and no one seems
able or willing to explain. The facts
are that an explanation would not help
the proposition, unless to defeat it, and
that is what its supporters don't want.
| have no doubt the Railroad Company
will build their depot in the city where
they please, having the authority under
the law to condemn and use any prop
erty within the city limits. But the
demands of our people are. a union de-
pot suited TO the wants and convent
ences of all, and not two or three depOts
scattered here and there over the town,
making expense to travellers going to
and from. And until this question is
settled l. for one, will oppose the pTOpO
sition to vote aid to any railroad, and /
hope every voter and tax payer villa
turn out and vote against it. Let the
parties who made these promises (if
any we're made) to the railroad company
redeem them out of their schemes ma
tured for gain-for keeping the ,clole
proposition FROM the mass of the people.
Remember voters, that one mans vote
counts just as much as another's, be he
rich OF poor. TAX PAYER.

Results of Heavy Mental Strain.

Some men can stand an enormous
amount Of mental strain without any ap-
parent injury; others, from what may be
called, for want of better term, weak
ness of the BRAIN" are incapable of any
thing requiring mental tension. The worst
consequences are noticed in people Of
moderate brain power, who, in the All
sence of proper training, attempt the per-
Torrance of severe mental labor Their
case is similar TO that Of those who sud-
denly engage in trials of strength and en-
durance after an insufficient amount of
training, and who either exhaust them
selves by oyertaXing their nervous ener-
gies, or induce disorders of the heart or
lungs, or strain of some portion of the
muscular system by the violence of their
efforts
When a man is being prepared for great
musular exertion he undergoes a course of
training in which the severity of the work
assigned to him is gradually and eau
tiously increased, and the same rule should
be adopted for those whose mental powers
are about to be severely taxed If this con-
dition be fulfilled, if a proper amount of
sleep can be obtained, and if the appetite
remains at its normal level, the brain will
bear almost any amount of steady strain
in the form of severe mental labor.-FOrt-

Probable Origin of Texas Cattle.

That the cattle of Mexico and Texas de-
seconded from the herds of old Spain is al
most universally believed. 1t is thought
that when these gentle and pious worthless,
the Spanish invaders. brought their
swords to America to help make openings
for the introduction of saying grace and
the sweet charitable teachings of the
church militant, they also brought cattle
of the herds of Andalusia. Some of them,
it is supposed, escaped, or were abandoned
to roam and breed at freedom on the
sunny plains of the Rio Bravo del Norte.
The resemblance there between the pict-
uresquely gothic Andalusian bullock and
the slabsided and cathemmered racer of
the southwest is considered good evidence,
if not proof positive. that they had a re-
mote common origin-ChicagO Tribune.

The Sand Around the Sphyux,

Operations have been lately begun for
the purpose OF clearing away the mass of
sand which has accumulated during CEN
turtles around the famous statue of the
Sphinx. Brughsch Bey, brother of the
distinguished Psychologist, has charge of
the work, which is being carried out ac-
cording to a plan proposed by Signor Mas
pero, and it will, it is expected. be finished
by Easter The portion of the statue at
present above ground is about forty feet.
1t is suppose that as much more, at least.
is buried in the sand, and the amount Of
sand TO be cleared away is estimated at
10000 cubic meters. \ small tramway is
being constructed To carry away this mass
of sand TO distance, and $50 laborers are
employed on the task. When the statue
has been laid bare to the level of the
foundations a broad circular walk will be
constructed around Il, and high wall
will be built TO guard against future en-
croachments of the sands of the desert
