Greer County Lands.

Touching the controversy about the
Greer county lands, Commissioner
Walsh sums up as follows:
|. If the patents are issued legally
there has been no harm done.
2 II issued illegally the state loses
nothing. and the lOcatOrs, who took the
chances, lose all as limitation does not
run against the state.
3. The state has the benefit Of the as
sertiOn of her ownership, which has al
ready been respected.
4. The state is already receiving an
annual rental OF $4,000, which, in ~
wears, would equal the price at which
her public lands were sold to pay the
public debt and retain four-tfths OF the
territory.
Commissioner Walsh states that Greer
county contains about l,63S, 900 acres OF
public land, of which about 100000 acres
have been patented by veteran certifi-
Gates, leaving $4,000 acres for future
legislation.
CAPTAIN Walsh adds: Gov. Ireland
and his predecessor, Gov. Roberts, were
like myself, convinced of the justice OF
the claim Of Texas, and | was gratiiied
to discover that the laws permitted an
assertion Of ownership. Such assertion
has already operated to protect OcGI-
pants under the Texas claim from eX-
pulsion from the territory belonging to
the Indians, and will do much; | am
convinced, to secure this (Greer) terri
tory as large MS the state OF Delaware, TO
civilization and wrest it from lazy saw
ages.

IT be would aluxury to find the Aus
IN journals agreeing for once on the
smallest matters Of local concern. As it
is, the only recourse for an outsider Is to
pick out his paper and go 1t blind. 1t is
Hopkins choice. Ten chances to one
that you are mistaken.
TAKE down a map Of Texas, study 1t
carefully, see just what territory this
proposed extension Of the Arkansas Pass
road will open up to our trade, talk with
your neighbOrs, post yourself on the adj
vantages it will confer on all classes OF
our citizens. then come out and work for
the success OF the project. Ii is the
greatest commercial and industrial card
that San Antonio can find in the whole
Texas pack.

The Galveston city directory for 1856
81, has been laid upon the LIGHT table
through the courtesy of the publishers,
Messrs. Morrison & Fourmay. 1t is the
neatest directory ever Issued in this
state or in the south, and is fully up TO
the high water mark Of the best eastern
publications OF its kind. In style and
finish, It will sustain the deseryedly
high reputation Of the publishers. 1t is
a solid work, elegantly printed, substan-
TALLY bound, contains valuable informa-
tion concerning the city of Galveston,
and in its advertising pages is decidedly
artistic. 1t contain 1856 names, upon
which a population Of 10000 is esti-
mated. The increase Of names over d.
rectory Of 1Ss4-S5 being 1875, shows an
increase in population during that time
Of nearly $500.

MONDAY, JUNE IA, 1886.
JUST BEFORE THE BATTLE.

San Antonio seems so largely on the
border land between action and inaction,
90 midway between the case OF her past
and the energy that must characterize
her future If she have any, that it is diff
fiult II not impossible to predict how she
will decide upon any given policy or
procedure. Were it not SO one would
say at once that there could be no ques-
ton about the result OF the proposition
made to our citizens by the San Antonio
and Arkansas Pass railway company.
Were it before a meeting Of Fort Worth,
or Dallas citizens that this proposition to
raise $4,000 was to come there would
be no difficulty is saying how
the proposal would be met. The citi-
zens of these towns have fully COM
mited themselves to the work Of railway
extension, knowing that in this alone
lies their hope for future trade and en-
larged commercial activity. San An
tonic has not entered upon that work
to any considerable extent. She has
hardly outgrown her free grass ideas,
and this proposition to subscribe money
for railway extension does not harmonic
with her old ideas. Mexico has very
largely caught the spirit of improve
ment; Texas has not been behind hand,
especially in the north and NORTHEASTERN
taking advantage Of every opportunity
offered; this section of Texas seems dead.
Austin and San Antonio alone, Of all
our considerable cities, are unequal to
the task Of entering the lists for COM
mercial connections, and securing the
needed enlargement OF railway facilities
by direct competition with other ambi
tious rivals. There is no law of neces-
sity that can make q town prosperous
unless its citizens join hands with OppOr-
tunity, and secure for themselves what
nature offers them. Our natural advan-
tages no one can question, but
these natural advantages become
our natural damnatiOn il we
make them stand in place of our
personal efforts, enterprise and grit.
This railroad extension into the north
west is the means to us Of new life of
commercial and industrial prosperity.
Every citizen comedies this, and yet
there are few who have any abiding
faith in such general movement Of our
people as to feel certain that the com.
paratively small sum asked to secure this
proposed line into the great northwest
will be raised. The meeting called for to-
night will be success If our people
make 1t so. 1t will be a failure II they
do not. 1t lie Tor them to decide. The
land owners, merchants, capitalists,
business men and citizens generally are
interested. The success OF this enter
prise means new business activity, build
ing projects, industrial life, added capt.
tai, manufacturing establishments, in
creased population, prosperity and Wig
orous growth. The defeat of this enter
prise, that is the failure to make 1t sue
cess, means stagnation, commercial de-
cay, industrial death.

OLD Statistics, OF the New York Com
mercial Advertiser, has been sold out by
contributor who essaying to speak
concerning the large cities Of the world
places the whole number Of cities con-
tanning 100000 population and over at
less than half hundred. The census
returns must lie awfully or the compiler
Of the Commercials tables could not see
straight one or the other. Five years
ago the number of cities containing
100000 population and over was Plsced
at ninety-six, OF which America was
credited with having but ten. A care
fully prepared census Of the cities of the
United States would nearly double that
estimate Of ten, and 1t is not unlikely
that there are from l2O to $50 cities In
the world to-day with populations in ex-
cess OF 100000.
