awake citizens Of San Antonio, the
members of tue Association, accom-
panied by their lady companions, left
for the City of Mexico last Saturday
evening on an excursion tendeIed by
the 'Atexican international Railway
Our junior editor, accompanied by his
daughter, Miss Ada, is evidently having
good time Of it, but managed to find
time en- route. to drop Us few lines
last Sunday, from which we make the
following extracts:
SALTILLo, MEx.. Nov. 25, 1888.
We reached here. AIS miles from City
of Mex, at 10 o'clock n. NJ. We had
supper at Laredo last night at 10,
having left San Antonio at ? pm. Ex-
peet to reach City Of Mex, to morrow
before dark There are about 35 or 40
ladies-total number on excursion l65
or 175
We are all right and will write again
on reaching City of Mexico. where we
will remain two and half days Then
We will make a brief trip through
Texas, not as extensive as if we hads
taken that trip first, for 1 guess the

Texas

Willie Plate.

This town IS called Dy Americans
Flat Tawn, name with more appro
priatpness although lacking in elegance.
1t is situated III st. Landry parish, 30
miles southwest Of Bunkie, on the edge
of large prairie bearing the same
name. When one approaches sIti.S
Plate from the east ii somewhat pre-
tentious spire on II Catholic chnrch in
dicates it's existence some four miles be-
fore it Is reached; and this emblem OF
christianity leads one to expect to find
Il town of some Importance, immense
public buildings, handsome churches,
broad avenues, well kept streets, and
the usual dirty lanes aud odorous sew
ers appear like a phantom before the
imagination: but when the sroc3 Is
reached the apparition entirely van
ishes, and one is at a los.5 TO describe
the change tha has takrn place both
in Ills optical aud mental expectation.
Between thirty and forty hanses
scattered over distance of over a mile
is all that is to he found, and naturally
this has the appearance and the faelii-
ties Of ii thiekiy settled rural district,
rather han these at II town. Tins dis
trict. however, ttansaets ii very large
business with the Surrounding country.
About a dozen good stores seem to be
doing d live and hourishing business
two blacksmith shops, three or four sa-
looms aud one hotel are all well patron
lied Half IA dozen or more resident
doctors minister to the physical condl-
ton of the people, and their moral and
religious wants are in the hands ot II
Catholic church and small Baptist
meeting house. The intellectual inter
ests of the t3wn are vested ia two
schools, one private enterprise and
the other supported by public funds,
while the civil institutions consist of a
mayor and corporation, post and II
money order office.
The inhabitants of VilL. Plate are
mostly French Creoles, and are cour
teous, haspitable and law abiding eiti-
zens French is the language gener
ally spoken, but most of the trades
people can speak English fuently, and
those who cannot express themselves
SO well, supplement their Deficiencies
by gestures, which every intuiaive OBJ;
server cannorsfail to comprehend
Vile Plat. is Is miles Of Washing
ton, which is the nearest railroad de-
pot, and whence all freight has to be
hauled over roads which at times are
composed of more liquids than solids,
aud this is naturally a great drawback
60 this otherwise enterprising and sue
eessful community They are, howey-
er, fully alive to this fact, and q bold
effort has been made to induce the
Texas and Pacific Company to con-
struct il blnnch line from Morrow sta
tion; and if the citizens will be sue
cessful in realizing their plans they
will certainly secure great boon for
[ their district, and what we now call
.sFlat Town will soon become "Sharp

Speculations as to the Next
House.

Special to The Times Democrat.
Washington, Nov.26. Very little but
the possible complexion OF the next
House is talked of at the Capitol. The
employees areistruggling with the hope
of Democratic majority.
It is very probable that if the dispute
aud uncertainty about Congress should
continue up to the time OF the meeting
of the next Congress, that the return OF
the Clerk, if showing Democratic ma
iority. would be disputed and the ques
ton of the admission of certain mem
bers to their seats be put to vote of
the House composed of members whose
election is acknowledged Having
been sworn in, they would properly
constitute the House, with the hold
over clerk acting as chairman, and mo.
tions essllli be made and voted on. Re
solutions could be offered declaring
this set or that set of members entitled
TO take their seats. With tie, as there
might be, excluding the members whose
admission was objected to, there would
probably be long struggle.
LATER.-A special to the Times
Democrat from Washington City, ofthe
26th says:
All the employees of the House to-day
threw up the sponge and said the Re-
publicans will organize the next House
This is the first time they have made
such an admission.
