THE BAR ASSOCIATION.
RECOMMENDING OF THE EN-
ECITINE COMMITTEE.

ECUIlN h COM MI L l. hJh.
The committee of the Texas Bar asso-
citation convened here by Ex-Governor
Roberts, concluded its labors yesterday,
after three days careful invetigation of
suggested changes in the judiciary act.
The members of the committee present
were Ex-Governor o, NJ. Roberts CHAIR
mani, and Messrs. r. S. Gould, B. II. Bas-
sett, John Hancock and j. B. Rector.
Judge Bassett, who took notes of the pro-
ceedings, is to embody their results In
fundamental shape for the further con-
sideration of the committee, which Will
meet here to adopt ana recommend them
to the final meeting of the Bar association
at Dallas in July. The committee did not
have the benefit of information in the
hands of Col. Peeler, of Austin, obtained
in answer to his circular to the profession,
on account of that gentleman being alb
sent on professional business. This data,
however, will be laid before the Dallas
meeting.
1t is understood that the committee
here aimed to improve upon the exist
ing judiciary laws rather than introduce
innovations, and that their recommends
tions will embrace the following impor-
tant suggestions:
l. Increase the supreme court to seven
members, with power to act in two divi'
sions.
2. More clearly defining the jurisdiction
of the district and inferior courts.
3. Making appeals from county courts
in civil cases, to the district court final.
4. Making the terms of judges of the
supreme court and court of appeals eight
years, and increasing salaries of the
judges to $4,000 each.
5. Taking civil jurisdiction from the
court of appeals.
6. Making the salaries of district judges
$4,000 per annum.
When Judge Bassett's report is finished
it will be published for the general infor-
nation of the profession.
The meeting of the association in Dal-
las, will be on the 18th of July.

PEDESTRIANISM EXTRAORDI-
NARY

They that go a-fshing, sometimes see
many strange things, and meet with many
strange mishaps. Two prominent legal
luminaries went out on piscatorial mis-
chief bent, Friday afternoon last. They
ought to have known better than to have
gone out on this additionally unlucky
day. But go they did, and, after taking
in the usual ''luck," went in quest of their
vehicle and horse that had been tethered
conveniently near, but neither was hair or
hide found. The two luckless disciples of
Walton. who followed the trail of that
horse eight miles into the city, are two OF
the saddest and wisest in all Austin. The
vehicle goes to the infrmary; the horse
that escaped the draft of his load into the
CITY is hearty and happy.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1886-05-20
Voters of Texas, shall all these things

Voters of Texas, shall all these things
go on forever!
Will you come to our help and rescue!
Will you not, panoplied as you are, in the
franchise pertaining to free men alone,
grid yourselves with the privileges and
glorles of your manhood, as an organized
army doing battle for God, your homes
and your native land, enlist in the war
for life, with the battle cry of prohibition,
and a measured, irresistible hand that
shall shake the solid earth, and sweep the
alcoholic traffic from the length and
breadth of this state! viii you not give
US, at the next session of our legislature.
an effective local option law! Will you
not also then send the question OF state
prohibition to the people; and lie. us tell
YOU, that in our Judgment, this can only
be done by men who believe in their own
acts, who will help to execute their own
laws, who love their kind and will keep
faith with their constituents.
Will you not give US good, honest,
faithful temperance men for our senators
and representatives, for our executive
and judicial officers! Let the voters seek
the man; take no man who demands an
office.
We do not come to you as partisans;
neither to make, nor to mar parties, do
we come. We ask-may we demand
that all parties should take cognizance of
our woes, and help to redress our griev-
ances. Our fathers. husbands, brothers
and sons belong to one party. We do
not ask them to change their relations.
&c. they can be honest and effective
temperance men and temperance voters
where they are. But we say TO all men,
who care more for party than for princi-
pie more for Office and whisky than for
temperance, justice, mercy, happiness
home and country, that we, as parties
most interested of all in the world, we, the
women of this state, and of this country
speaking in behalf of 100000 women OF
Texas and of 20,00O,000 women of the
United States, will positively not give oul
influence to any party that puts itsel
under control of the liquor power, ano
in case of the present great parties fail
ing US, then we will give our voices, on
prayers and our efforts to build up an,
party that shall honestly propose to max
it its work to control, to limit and tinall,
to destroy that power.

THE TEMPPERACE WOMEN'S
APPEAL.
MOTHERS, WIVES AND DAUGH-
TIERS TO THE FRONT!


AUSTIN, May 8, 1886.
The womens Christian Temperance Union of
Texas, in annual convention assembled, TO
the Voters of Texas-Greeting:
BRoTHERs:-A representatives of the
100000 mothers and wives OF this
great state, we extend to you our greeting
and Law before you this our petition: You
are the enfranchised masters, and SO the
guardians and protectors of the interests,
homes and welfare of this blessed land.
We are without authority and have no
voice. and vet you know that our interests
are equal, our enjoyments perhaps great
err, our anguish deeper in everything
that affects the veal or woe of your
homes, for they are ours. In our troubles
to whom can we go but to God and you
In Him has always been our steady trust
To you we now come. Hear us for the
gravity of our complaint.
A hundred thousand of our dear homes
are, to a greater or less degree, under the
terrible blight of whisky and its allied
beverages. It's curse is written In the
fearful eyes, the haggard faces, the tau
tered garments, the forlorn cabins, the
ragged children, the bury tield,the broken
fences. the houseless schools, the vacant
pews, that, scattered here and there, are
never quite out of our sight or our
thoughts.
II has builded our (alas, too few aims
houses and hospitals, and filled them.
tt has builded our (alas, too many jail'
and prisons, and filled them. And worse
vet. if worse can be, it rents, fills ant
supports those other utterly terrible
places into which none pure in heart cal
enter, out of which none pure in persol
can ever come.
And all these are our own miseries
They pertain to our own brothers, hus
bands and sons, our own mothers, sister
and daughters, and what are ours ar
yours. The liquor traffic is responsible
for miseries untold, and that n
tongue can tell. 1t eats up our sur
stance, pauperizes our families, brr
talizes our husbands, makes criminals Q
our sons and makes much of hf
uncomfortable.

Estimate of work from Bastrop to Tay

Gen. Walker-These figures are estab-
Iished by actual surveys over the larger
portion of the route, and on the balance
are believed to be larger than actual sur
veys will establish.
Yours respectfully,
A. G. WEEKS, Engiree etc.
An estimate of what I believe road
from Austin to Bastrop would cost, estl-
mating the distance to be the same as the
public road:
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1886-05-20
MAKING HER THINGS LAST.

Good Cheer.
Every housekeeper knows how careful
treatment keeps table-linen and house
hold furniture. Girls do not always know
or remember that great care of their own
little possessions will often enable them
to dress nicely on very little money. A
lady saws: When l was girl there was
one of my young friends who was distin-
guished for making her things last Her
dress, hats, gloves and ribbons were mar
vel of durability l used to wonder how
she managed to make them last so long
without looking shabby, but ceased to do
SO after l had visited her at her own home.
The reason why her clothes wore so long
was that she took such good care of them,
Her dresses were brushed and folded away
carefully and the slightest spot on them
was removed as soon as twas discovered
Her hat was wrapped in an old pocket
handkerchief, and put away in box
as soon as done with, the strings and laces
being Strengthened and rolled out most
symmetrically each time. Her gloves
were never folded together, but were pull
ed out straight and layed fat in box,
one upon the other, each time they were
used the tiniest hole being mended al
most befofe it had time to show itself.
But the thing that impressed me most was
the care she bestowed on her ribbons.
When making up bows she used to line
the upper part of the ribbon with white
paper, and this not only prevented the
ribbon from becoming limp and creased
but kept it clean, so that when the bow
was soiled on one side she could tu=n the
ribbon, and the part that had been cover
ed came out looking new and fresh. That
girl married and brought up large fam
lily. Her husband had to fight his way
and did so bravely. and was unusually sue
cessful, for he became wealthy Bnt his
