A Reliable Article,

Due notice-That given by the bank.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1886-05-06
THE CALL AND THE LAND BOARD.

Our evening contemporary, the Call, re-
ferring to the article in The STATESMAN
on the Goodnight case, arrives at con-
cluson concerning the power of the lard
board not warranted by the facts. 1t
takes the position that the law of 1883
creating the board, authorized it to
change the lease rate minimum of four
cents established by the legislature itself.
If the Call will take the trouble to read
the act carefully, it will be seen in section
sixteen of the law that no express au-
thority is given to that end That there
is in this, or any other section of the act,
implied power to change the minimum, is
pure assumption, upon which, however,
the board has erected a policy, and
minimum price that have been largely at
variance with the interests of the school
fund, practical instances of which occur
nearly every week.
The trainers of the act of April II,
1888, never designed to give the board the
power named. We are informed, an amend
mont to the law, offered at the time, Civ
ing the board the power they have as
sumed was defeated by very decided
vote.
As to the Calls assertion, that Mr..
Goodnight never offered four cents till
the board had raised the minimum, it
matters little. 1t is enough to know that
he and other large cattlemen have repeat
edly made that offer, which, had the board
accepted, as it should and could
have done, the school fund would to-day
be richer by hundreds of thousands of
dollars. Instead of that, they have al
lowed Mr.. Goodnight and Others an oppor-
tunity to shelter themselves under the
law of 1885, and to Craze their herds upon
the school lands free. We advise GU
cotemporary to read the law of 1888
more carefully.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1886-05-06

one most practicable. 1t matters not to
Austin what route is selected, so that the
road is built, and of that she can rest as
sured and that, too, without a cent being
asked or expected from her.
| But the important question now is in a
direction which more directly benefits this
city. In fact, does not stop at benefits,
for if it is decided against her, will do
her indescribable injury.
Will Austin consent to remain lethargic,
and see a railroad constructed, which will
change her from even way station to a
place situated twenty-five miles away from
the line of road, which will be the great
highway from the northern to the southern
part of Texas. But these same people, who
recognize, as sentible business men, the
great injury that will be done, certainly
can not expect to accomplish anything by
getting on the corner and blowing about
the matter and remain passive with
everything but their tongues.
Words at this juncture will do about as
much good as resolution, adopted by a
backwoods literary society, that the presi-
dent of the United States ought to dis
solve congress. But the words are having
this effect, while the time is being taken
up with their useless outpouring men of
energy and push are moving elsewhere,
and as they are straining every nerve,
while Austin is still sleeping, the pros
poets are that they will accomplish their
object. Taylor is red-hot for the road
from Bastrop, and as they ee the great
advantages accruing from it, they will
leave no stone unturned in their endeav-
ors to get it there. 1t is race between
Taylor and Austin. Taylor is small, but
as lively and energetic as a grasshopper,
while Austin is as poky as tortoise. The
question is, which will get there?
Will Austin stand back at this juncture,
or be backed down by a comparative vii
lage, which guarantees to raise as much,
if not more money than there is any
prospect of raising here, if one judges
from the past. It is inu4ed reflection
upon individual and community alike, and
the people will never cease to regret let
ting such an opportunity slip. Once gone
it can never be regained.

THE WOOL QUESTION.

What reason can be given for the ex-
istence of the fact that the wooden factory
stock of this country is, as a rule, below
par? A careful diagnosis of the disease
in this branch of manufacturing industry
shows that the cause for this unhealthy
state is single, and other apparent causes
are mere manifestations of this central
one. The high wool duty seems to be the
only explanation for the continued in
activity of the wooden business, and as
congress is on the point of considering
the tariff revise, the large wooden manu-
facturers ought to unite in an appeal to
that body.
The wool monopolists are labOring
under the mistaken idea that the high
wool duty benefits their trade, and are
searching for the cause of the inactivity
in the members, while it is deep-seated in
the system.
This high duty has about the same effect
on the wool industry as dollhouse has
on a plant-it may foster and protect it
for while, but as soon as this pampered
pet is brought out into contact with the
cutting blasts of competition with the
hardy growths which have learned to live
and prosper without artificial aid, it with
ers, and the only remedy is to cut it down
to the root and start a new growth. No
other effect can be seen from these high
duties than fostering infant industries,
and while this might have done very well
when manufactures we're young. at this
day of rapid improvement, if business
cannot live and prosper on its own merits,
it should not be kept alive by any arti-
fetal remedies, which serve as refined
cruelty, for as soon as they are Withdrawn
death must naturally follow.

JEFFERSON DAVIS.

The recent scenes at Montgomery have
awakened a strong interest, not only in
this country but in Europe. Not on ac-
count of the laying of a cornerstone
nor the foundation of a confederate mon
ument; nor of the shoutings and APP.
plause of one of the most enthusiast tic
multitudes ever collected in the south.
Not the occasion, nor the surroundings.
But all eyes have been turned on Mont
gomery because the central figure of the
occasion was also the central figure in a
great and sublime war--the grandest rev.
olution of modern times. 1t was Jeffer-
son Davis. 1t was the man at whose nod
the federal government trembed twenty
five years ago. 1t was the leader of a re-
volt that for four years held the civilized
world in suspense. The ovation to Mr..
Davis at Montgomery was but testimo-
NAL of the profound veneration entertain
ed for him personally, and as the repre-
sentative of cause ever dear to the
people of the south, but which has, under
the inscrutable DEGREES of fate, found an
eternal tomb amid the rubbish of the
ages. The corner stone of the monument
at Montgomery, inscribed with
the name of man who shook
a government of fifty millions
marks the official sepulture of the Lost
Cause, which, with the name and fame of
Jefferson Davis, belongs alone to history.
Future generations will ponder over the
grandeur of character which both must
possess to the people and ages yet to
come. The speech of Mr.. Davis at the lay
ing of the corner stone, was like the APP
pearence of the tragedian in the last

WEEKLY STATESMAN.
on TO BASTRoPi

Six years ago, when Rockdale was the
nearest point to Austin on the lnterna-
tional Il Great Northern railroad-for a
subsidy of only $5O,O0O-the road would
have made direct line to Austin instead
of making circuit around by Round
Rock. more than score of miles out of
the way.
But now, with the contemplated road
running across from Taylor to Bastrop, it
makes Austin more of way station than
formerly. There is a direct connection
on to Galveston and Houston across from
Taylor to Elgin, and saves all the circuit
around by Austin. Austin also loses
all that cotton which she
has heretofore gotten from
Bastrop county, and if the road is ever
extended to LAGRANGE, only thirty-two
miles from Bastrop, which it is sure to do,
direct connection is made from the
north on to Galveston. Furthermore, if
the contemplated road from Bastrop on
down by Gonzales, Cuero and Goliad to
Arkansas Pass is constructed. Austin will
lose the advantage of being on that line.
Certainly, if deep water is gotten at Ar
ansas Pass, railroads will center there
from all parts of the country, and that
this last road will be built is more than
problematic
Can Austin, then, blame any one but its
business men, who let the opportunity
slip through their fingers to extend their
railroad lines to the surrounding untouched
country! The capital is situated in the
heart of country through which its rail
roads should ramify Like veins through |
the human system, tor all the country is
rich and productive and only needs de-
yelopment. Call mass meeting imme-
diately, and let the matter be thoroughly
presented to the business men. Their
oniy sllvatiou is prompt action, not
words
