The gist of the Montopolis bridge
trouble is the exact location of the high
water level of the flood of 1869. Given
that level and the question resolves itself
into the simple use of tape line and the
comparison of the height OF the new
bridge with that level. II is not under
stood, however, that the supervising archi.
tect contends for the bridge, that it is
above that high water mark, but that it is
suspended amply high above the river to
prove a guarantee of safety. On the
other hand the county has a contract, IN.

specifically demanding that the bridge
shall be five feet above the high water

CALL MAJOR STEWART HOME.

Under this heading the Houston Post of
yesterday had the following as its leading
editorial: "The Post condemned tbs
plan of begging subscriptions for the
Austin Confederate Home in the north,
when it began. The STATESMAN is now in
the ranks and doing noble service in the
cause. The STATESMAN, too, deprecates
the mission of Major j. II. Stewart to the
north and insists that Texas is under obi
cations alone to take care of the old and
helpless veterans in her midst 1t is graft
flying to learn from The STATEsMAN's col
umns that the appeal TO the manhood and
gratitude of Texas has been and is con-
tinuing to be substantially recognized. 1t
comes with the most grace that the Aus
tin paper should sound the call and take
the initiative. The Home is there and
The STATESMAN should present first and
champion most untiringly its claims upon
the people of the state. The STATEsMAN
is exactly right in heading the movement,
and it has placed the labor of love on the
proper basis and confined it to its proper
sphere. It is little remarkable that any
one in and of Texas should differ with
The STATESMAN in its presentation of this
matter. Mr.. Henry E. Shelley, the presi-
dent of the board OF directors of the
Home, does, however, take issue with his
paper and defends the boards action in
employing Major Stewart to canvass
in the north for contributions for
this charity, or benevolence, or whatso
ever it may be termed. II, as Mr.. Shelley
would have it appear, these contributions
we're really voluntary, coming spontane-
ously and unsought, it would be grace
less act to reject them or criticise the re-
oipients. But to go among strangers
with plenty and prosperity at home, and
actually solicit aims, Is to beg-nothing
more nor less. Beggary supposes destitu-
ton. There is no such excuse in Texas
for going north for solicited aims. An
other feature is that part of these begged
moneys must 60 to the soliciting agent,
either in the way of travelling expenses
or small commissions on the
small contributions obtained, for it is
not contended that Major Stewart is
sacrificing his own time or paying his
own way. This action of the board, there
fore, presents itself this way: 1t is max
ing the north pay the agent for soliciting
from them aims for distinctively Texan
charity. Is this right or defensible? And
is it not humiliating to so prosperous and
heretofore generous people as the south
ern citizens of Texas? And is this "vol-
untary" and Spontaneous" benevolenoe
such as Mr.. Shelley thinks the senti-
ment expressed by The STATESMAN will
affront? No, it is about time Major
Stewart was coming home-about time
for Texas to put up the money and take
tender care of its Confederate home. 1t
is hardly fair to beg the north to pay our
agent to go around among strangers and
solicit them to contribute TO charity in
which neither their pride nor sentiment
is concerned.
