A Free Bridge.

Judge Erb, of Little Rock, before the
election informed the people that he
was in favor of free bridge, and the
other day he took the first practical
steps towards securing one. He in
structed Commissioner Frank w. Glib
to make soundings in the river at the
foot of the several streets where the To-
cation of the bridge has been suggest
ed, in order to ascertain the point at
which the best foundation can be had
Mr.. Glib is an expert in this particular
kind of work, and the report of his
soundings will have considerable to do
with the selection of the point where
the bridge is to be located.

THE BALLOT BOX SCANDAL.
Mayor Mosby, of Cincinnati, on the Stand
The Smoke InspectOrship.

WASHINGTON, January 20.-When the
special house committee investigating the
ballot box forgery met this morning Mayor
Mosby, of Cincinnati, was placed upon the
stand. He testified he knew Wood. He
first met him about August 6 last, when
Wood came with letter of introduction
from E. G. Hall, manager of the Hall Safe
and Lock company, commencing him as a
practical mechanic. Wood also had an
other letter saying he would make a good
smoke inspector; that he was an honest,
reputable citizen and staunch Republican.
This letter was from John G. Otis. Still
another letter of recommendation to the
same effect was from George Weber niron
merchant of high character and formerly
sheriff. Congressman John G. Caldwell, of
Ohio, also endorsed Wood as soldier and
good Republican. So did W. H. Jones, of
the Jones Electrical company. Wood filed
papers and asked if witness had received
letter of recommendation from Governor
Foraker, and being answered in the mega
tive said that the letter would be forthcOm-
ing.
Augusta witness got letter from C.
l.. Kurtz, the governors secretary, asking
him to have the place of smoke inspector
held open. Witness had told Wood he
would consider his application with others,
and waited to hear from the governor.
August Is he got letter from the gov
ernor asking him not to make the appoint
ment ofsmoke inspector fer few days.
Witness wrote the governor in reply tell
ing'what kind of man he wanted for
smoke inspector and August 16 the gov
ernor replied that he had promised to en-.
dorse Woods application ina certain con-
tingenCy; that he had promised him (the
governor) certain political information
about prominent men,.
Witness said that during this time he.
had received letters from ]. H. Leiden,
Henry Watson and others of the Grand
Army post, and Charles B. Russell recon-
mending Wood for appointment as a wor-
thy man, good business man and a hard
working man.
Witness said he had first seen the forged
paper September IA, when he t.let Governor
Foraker in the Gibson house, and later
showedit to him; Governor Foraker had
told the witness not to appoint HIM unless
ne was found to Oe of good character and
suitable attainments.

CAPITAL PuN1sHMEN:.

1t is curious to note the changes
that have taken place in the modes O
capital punishment since the first
criminal code, the Mosaic, OF which
history gives any account, and ending
with executions by electricity, which
seems likely to be adopted by the
moderns. Among the ancient Israel
ties four methods were in vogue
hanging, stoning, burning, and the
sword.
Implement was practised by the
ancient Babylonians and crucifixion
by the Romans, but the Greeks used
a potion of the deadly hemlock.
In the middle ages great cruelties
we're inflicted on criminals on the
cross and on the impaling stake, the
sufferings being sometimes prolonged
for several days. Afterwards came
the agonies OF the iron cage, the rack
the wheel and OF fire at the stake.
In England in medieval times
men were hung, drawn and quartered
pressed to death by heavy weights OF
burned alive. In the fifteenth cen,
tury implement was customary in
Russia, as the history of the reign OF
Ivan the Terrible shows, while in
France Damiens, who attempted the
assassination of Louis XIV, was torn
to pieces by horses, with chains at
tached to his four limbs.
1t is interesting to note that those
horrible barbarities gradually disap'
peared as the world emerged from the
gloom of the dark ages. At the
present we are 80 far removed from
them as to be apparently approach
ing the other extreme, that of toe
much leniency and aesthetic delicacy
in the punishment OF capital crimes.
There is evidently tendency
throughout the United States al
least, to substitute the peniten
tiary for the hangman's rope
but with notable increase Of
heinous crimes as a consequence
Gan eye for an eye" is very old rule
and human life should pay the penalty
of wilful killing. We believe not in
cruelty of execution, but believe in
the efficacy of execution.

he right direction and is not only
practical for this county but can be
made the foundation of an excellent
state law, solving the much vexed
road question.
The platform of the association
published in one of our former issues
covers the whole ground and is a
document which shows thorough
knowledge of the question. The con-
stitution OF the State of Texas pro.
vides for road and bridge tax of fif-
teen cents on the one hundred dollars
and it will be very difficult so get the
representatives of the various districts
of this state to consent to higher
rate of taxation, as the interest in
this regard is very conflicting one
This was also the reason why no steps
were taken by the last legislature to
change the road laws.
A law should be passed to authorize
the respective counties to appropriate
the.necessary funds, and to issue bonds
if needed, for the construction of mac
adamized roads on application of its
citizens, after paying into the county
treasury % per cent of the cost of con-
struction of such roads. A commission
appointed by the commissioners court
would decide about the propriety OF
building the road, and if the applica-
ton is granted and the road built the
same will be maintained by dividing
the same into sections, to be kept in
good repair under system like that
in other states where macadamized
roads are in use. XXN.

Texas Sugar Industry.

Houston Post: On the oath inst
the Texas sugar men will meet in
this city to consider ways and means
to promote that important industry
in this State. One of their present
needs is an experimental station and
this the government will be asked to
establish. Few realize the possible
ties of the sugar industry in South
Texas. Lying contiguous to Houston
are half million acres of rich
sugar lands especially adapted
to the growing Of tropical cane. The re-
port of Commissioner Foster for 1888
shows that but 1896 acres were
planted in sugar cane, or less than one
thirtieth of the sugar belt proper. Yet
the value of the sugar and syrup pro-
duced from these few acres was nearly
81 800 900 or an average of nearly 500
per acre. There were 386,120 acres
planted in wheat, yet the value of the
wheat crop was but a trifie more than
double that of the $1,000 acres of SUI
gar land. Cotton yielded value of
only $15.16 per acre while corn
yielded but trife over So per acre.
These figures are suggestive. They
mean that very soon the half million
acres of sugar lands lying near Hous-
ton will be planted to ribbon cane, and
they will produce something like $780,
100000 worth of sugar and syrup
annually. 1t means that where land
is not we'll adapted to the cultivation
of ribbon cane, sorghum, which in
1883 yielded return nearly double
that of cotton and more than three
times that of corn, will be planted,
and that south Texas will bristle with
sugar mills.

WAR RECOLLECTIONS.
A Battle in Which General StOnewall Jack
son Was Defeated.


From the San Francisco Call.
My attention has been directed to a
statement published in paper of this
city and reported to have been made
by General Miles in answer to this
question, "What was your opinion OF
Mr.. Davis as a military leader?" to
which the General replies: II think
the South had far ADLER military men
than he. l think Stonewall Jackson
was one of their ablest. They never
lost battle while he lived, nor did
they gain one after his death.
If the language of the General is
correctly reported must respectfully
take exception to the statement that
"they never lost a battle while he
lived" as / had the honor to partici-
pate in an engagements doubtless in
advertently overlooked by him, in
which Stonewall Jackson was thor,
oughly and unquestionably beaten.
refer to the first battle of Winchester
Va, March 90, 1862 Called Kernstown
by the Confederates), between the
forces of Jackson and General james
Shields, in which the former re-
ceived an unexpected but effectual
drubbing.
Nor was this an affair of cover
whelming numbers" as was usually
claimed by the defeated party On
either side, there being very little diff
ference in strength, Jackson having
somewhat the advantage in artillery
and in the final struggle all the adj
vantage of position. =
There were about 5000 men actu
ally engaged on each side, the action
lasting from about 9 o'clock in the
morning until after dark, and it was
certainly splendid exhibition o.
courage and military skill on botf
sides. In order to show that Jackson
had every opportunity to display thu
brilliant qualities claimed for him by
his admirers brief description of the
battle will be necessary. Shields
Division was composed of three brig
AIDES of infantry, Kimball's, Sullivan
and Tyler's, with five batteries of ar
tillery and few companies of cavalry
Jackson had also three brigades, Gar
nett's, Burke's and Fulkerson's, will
six batteries and Ashby's cavalry.
About 9 o'clock in the morning w
took position about two miles soutl
of Winchester, in the direction o
Kernstown, our lines extending Oh
each side of the now celebrated
Road from Winchester town,
A good broad highway leading down.
Gen. Shields, who had been Wounds
in skirmish on the previous day
directed the general movements of hi
division from his quarters in Winches
ter by courier and signal, the imme
date command in the field devolvin
upon Kimball, commander of the frs
brigade, whose vigilance and skill con
tributed largely to the success of tn
day.

fantry, began the attack by an at
tempt to turn or crush our lett. put
the charge was CALAMITY repulsed oy
Sullivan's brigade. Skirmishing ana
heavy artillery firing was kept up on
both sides without material results I'M
til Jackson's main body gained pos
session of a ridge commanding our
right and threatening our rear. inns
was probably the first of the thanking
movements" which afterwards made
him so famous, but in this particular
instance he was doomed to disastrous
failure. Tyler's brigade was sent TO
the right and rear to meet this move
ment and there was a rapid rush to
gain possession of strong stoneWali
standing between the opposing torces'
but Fulkerson's brigade won the race
and received our men with terrlhc
volley, which temporarily checked
their advance.
Our Observation-Disclosures Or
dered to charge straight up the ridge
in the face of the batteries, which we
did in fine style, encountering at the
summit the infantry of Garnett's brig
ade. They held strong position be-
hind trees, rocks and hillocks, with an
open space of forty or fifty yards be-
tween us. Here for nearly two hours
the fire was incessant and deadly,
both sides losing heavily, the final re-
suit being only question OF pluck
and endurance. Shortly before dark
we made a general charge all along
the line, and, after a brief but spirited
resistance, Jackson was forced from
the field, leaN ing many OF his dead and
wounded in our hands, together with
number of prisoners and two pieces
of artillery. He fell back about five
miles, and the next day con-
tinued his retreat down the valley.
Now this was deliberately planned
and stubbornly contested battle, CIV
ing fair test of the ability of the
leaders and the valor of the men.
Having occurred in the early days of
the conflict, it was soon obscured by
the gigantic contests of the great an
tagonists; but to show thai it was not
merely skirmish, l will state that
my regiment alone lost ninety-six
killed and wounded out of 255 engaged,
heavier percentage than in the fam
Gus charge at Balaklava, and including
among the dead our gallant COM
mander, Colonel VIM. G. Murray, the
first Pennsylvania colonel killed in the
war.
Jackson's men we're all Virginians,
fighting on their native heath.
Shields boys were Westefhers, with
the exception of two regiments from
Pennsylvania. They were young, en-
thusiastic, accustomed to the use of
firearms and ready for any emergency,
and the proudest boast of the survi.
vors is that they were'the only troops
that ever whipped Stonewall Jackson
during the war.
l send this statement for publica-
ton in the Call as matter of justice
to the gallant men of Shields division
who sacrificed their lives or shed their
blood on that victorious field.
