COMPTROLLER INGALLS, REPORT.

An examination of the oomptroller's re-
port for the year ending August 81, 1888
which has just come from the printer,
shows it to be one of the best arranged
compilations of the fiscal affairs of the
state that has ever emanated from that de-
partment. The whole workings of the
financial affairs of the state, the receipts
of the state treasury, disbursements, esti-
mates and the many other statistical
tables are not only arranged in detail, but
are so summed up and analysed
as to make the vast compilation of
figures plain and easily understood.
The records show the imprint
of experience and an excellent business
management of the department. The en-
tire 1887 taxes are shown to be collected
and deposited in the state treasury, with
the exception of about three thousand dol
lars, two thousand two hundred of which
amount is in suit against the sureties of a
deceased tax collector. Can this in any
state of the Union be beat? The limited
time since its issuance will not permit of
such an extended review of this report
as it deserves, or we would like to make,
suffice it to say, the state, as we'll as Mr..
McUall, is to be congratulated upon this
exhaustive report and the splendid show
ing made of the management of the de-
partment.

Mr.. j. F. PORE is an engineer of long
experience and the words he gives to the
public this morning on the county road
improvement question are well worth the
careful consideration of our county COM
missioneIs' court and all our citizens who
are interested in securing safe and quick
ways of travel from one portion of our
rich and growing county to the other.
Our people are very shortly to act upon
this question and they should inform
themselves in all its phases. Prepare for
the county convention of the 18th.

THH clergy of Indianapolis are very
much exercised over the coming presiden-
tial inaugural ball, and the eastern
dailies are running column interviews
with the ministers of President elect Har-
rison's home, all being to the same effect,
the wrong and sin of dancing. But If the
ball in prospectu is like unto its prede-
cessors, these gentlemen are needlessly
exercising themselves on that score, as
because of the crush dancing will be
rather more in name than effect. But
the ball is on the inaugural programme,
and those having the arrangements in
hand will hardly consent to give it up
IL is the great recouping event for them
the sinews of war.

IMPORTANT work was done in congress
yesterday-the passage in the house OF the
Nicarsguan canal bill, which had already
passed the senate. The house amended
it, however, and conference may be nee
essary. The majority of the house was
very emphatio-157 to 80. We, of Texas,
are especially interested in this ship canal
If we ever get deep water port.

SECRETARY Chiffon is the right man in
the right place, at the head of the South
ern Interstate immigration bureau. He
is losing no time in selecting and com
missioning his agents and sending them
on their various missions. Good cannot
too soon result from all this effort, and
the south is fortunate in having such a
man to serve her.

The Christmas edition of the Brown
WOOD Appeal is highly creditable effort
to ad yertise the advantages of the town

on reading the edition, profusely illus
trated, one gets the impression that
Brentwood is big place with elegant
buildings.

IT is found, by consulting the summary
made by the Baltimore Manufacturers
Record of the capital invested in new en-
terprises and the extension of old plants
in the southern states for the year 1888,
that Texas stands third among her sister
states in this form of growth. Alabama
is represented by $29,413,ooo; Kentucky
by $2s, 1901, 900, and Texas by $1H954,Ooo,
while Georgia is fourth, with only $l4,-
100000. This is quite fine showing, all
things considered; but vast improve
Gun be made on it in 1889, when
xas should take first place among the
southern states with at least 100000
high water mark.

WHAT splendid immigration cards for
the state are the booms now on at Rusk,
Birmingham and Jefferson! At Jefferson
in two days last week small real estate
transfers amounted to $4,000; while at
Rusk and Birmingham two cities are
springing into existence as if by magic,
and the snap of business is simply as
founding. Rusk and Birmingham are
only fair sample of what will result to
the state when we once begin earnestly
and systematically to develop our mineral
resources. 1t is our duty and privilege to
advertise ourselves and use our multiplied
advantages to the best effect.

ASIDE from what HE STATESMAN may
be worth to Austin as public institution
it is not improper to state that during
the year just past we have furnished en-
ployment in this city to forty persons,
to whom we have paid an aggregate of
$642 per week, and we have the pleasure
of knowing no week has ever passed
without full payments having been made
for all services rendered. How many
other lines of business IN Austin furnish
employment to as many people and dis
tribute as much money per week in this
city as The STATESMAN In this connec.
ton we will also say during 1888 we in
creased our Associated Press dispatches
twenty per cent, while our state special
service was increased nearly two hundred
per cent, and that the local and general
news service has shown marked improve
ment we believe no one will deny.

The New York World has accom- lished
wonderful growth in the last five years
from 100000 in 1883 to 1O4,OoO,OOO
copies for the year just closed. To illus
trate what these huge figures mean, the
World says the years issue weighed IT,
100000 pounds and there were four copies
of the World issued for every second of time
during the year. Also that zone single
days issue of the World, with the columns
placed end to end, would have made a
band around the equator. In book form
it would have made more volumes than in
any library on EARTH" What huge en-
terprise it is! What an engine for good
or evil! Can anyone estimate the inhu-
ence of such newspaper?

THE handsome present just made our
State University by Mr.. Isham, president
of the Austin ard Northwestern railroad,
who is a nonresident and almost a
stranger in the state, and who never spent
more than an hour in the institution he
has SO minufoiently remembered, might
very we'll "point moral and adorn tale"
for our home people. There are doubt
less in many homes in this state, works of
art and literature that would prove very
valuable to the University. Let our peo-
pie bring this institution very close to
themselves and in every way they can
devise, aid it. 1t is worthy of all en-
couragement, as it is doing noble work.
