FOR A FAIR COUNT.
Judge Maxey to Appoint Election
Supervisors In this County.


At IL o'clock this morning a number of
lawyers and politicians met in the federal
court room this morning to hear the ar
gument before Judge Maxey for the APP
pointment of supervisors at the coming
election. As this is an election which in
cludes the choosing of a United States Of
ficer, congressman, it is customary for
the federal judge to appoint such super
vlsers. Tine question was, could Judge
MaXey appoint these super viSorS when
the application for them was made later,
than ten days before the election, as the
law required.
MeSsrs. Denman, Franklin, Kellar and
Callaghan spoke on the matter. Mayor
Callaghan took the stand that the
appointment was not necessary, as there
was only one candidate. The court, how
ever, was convinced that Judge Robin
son was in the race against JOdie Sayers.
After further discussion, Judge MaXey
decided to appoint the supervisors, one
democrat and one republican in each
precinct. 1t was agreed that Mayor CAL
laghan as chairman of the democratic
committee, and Mr.. Chas. L. Sauer. as
chairman of the republican committee,
should meet with their respective com.
mittees at o'clock this afternoon, and
decide upon the two supervisors of each
precinct.
Judge Maxey will make the appoint
ment of the same in the morning.

THE resources of Texas are almost
boundless both In extent and variety.
The Southern portion is well adapted
to the growth of sugar and rice, all
the sandy lands in West Texas are
finely suited to orchards and vine
yards, both peaches and grapes sue
coed admirable on these sandy lands,
in fact better than they do in Califor-
mia, then como the cotton and corn
lands and the oats and wheat lands
which cannot be surpassed. Nature
has showered her bounties uponTexas
with prodigal hand, but man has
done hardly anything to improve
these natural advantages. There
was so much unoccupied land, that
the settlers felt no disposition to go
to, the trouble of taking precau-
tions to preserve the festility of
the soil, or to enrich q poor soil.
But with the construction OF lines
of railway. Q new era commenced to
dawn upon the land so long given
over to mossbackism and non-pro-
gress. New people flocked into the
state and brought along with them
the spirit of enterprise and progress.
These new ideas begun to leaven the
entire population, and the spirit of
enterprise and progress became con-
tagious. Towns and cities sprang
into existence rs if by the wand of
the enchanter, all along the different
lines of railway and the wilderness
was vocal with the hum of industry.
Great and wonderful as has been the
progress of Texas during the past
twenty years, she is destined to make
still more wonderful progress within
the next twenty years. She is now,
so to speak, only standing on the top
of Pishgah, gazing into the promised
land of the future when the varied
and magnificent resources OF Texas
shall have been developed and util-
lied by a numerous and busy popula
ton.

Sl2); American, 707 to $40 30.
Weayers, English. S3.4 to 1851, subject
at the date on which these rates were given,

S4S2 to SS73.
The average wages of employees in the
Massachusetts mills are as follows, accord
ing to the official returns: Men IS 81, women
s56!, male ch ldren So H. female children
sos According to Consul Shaw's report,
the average wages of the men employed in
the Lancashire mills on the first OF January,
1880 WAS about s. per week subject to re.
duction OF 10 per cent women from 1910 to
$3.50, subject to a reduction of pei cent.
The hours of labor in the Lancashire
mills are fifty-six, in the Massachusetts six.
ty, rer week. The hours of | Dor in the
mills in the other New England states,
where the wages are generally less than in
Massachusetts,, are usually sxtysix to
sixty per week. Undoubtedly the in.
equalities in the wages of English and Amer
lean operatives are more than Cqualized by
the greater efficiency of the latter and their
longer hours of labor. If this should prove
