Official Statement Of the Success Of the
Enterprise.

Official Statement Of the Success of the
Enterprise.
The following interesting commu-
nication has been addressed to the
Board of Trade:
Mr.. G. P. Warner, Secretary of the Austin
Board of Trade.
Dear Sir-We believe it is proper
Gas it certainly is very gratifying) to
acquaint your honorable body with
the great success of the Alliance
Cotton yard, which was established in
a great measure through the co-opera-
ton and with the aid of your associa-
ton. We do confess that we feared
during the first year of its existence
there might have been inadvertent
errors committed, but the manage
ment has been so fortunate as to
avoid such to great degree by care
full and diligent attention to the de-
tails. and we confidently look for
ward, with the experience obtained
and the great satisfaction the yard has
given generally, to still greater results
next season. Our yard was in its
infancy and hardly known the past
season, yet we will handle some ID, 600
bales of this crop, with results to the
the farmers generally very satisfactory
indeed. With the cooperation of
your honorable body our success next
season can still be much greater.
You can aid us in advertis-
ing the existence and advantages
offered by the yard, so that buyers
abroad will be induced to consider
Austin an important cotton center.
This fact cannot fail to help the city's
trade, as it will most certainly the
producers. We can assure you there
is now feeling of unanimity through
out the farming community and SYM
pathy for the city's welfare not known
before for years. "Let us look and
learn" Very truly yours, ETC.,

COUNTY ROADS.
Measure Suggested by Hon. D. @. Robinson
Of Bexar Csunty.i

OF beXRr County.l
Judge D. G. Robinson, representa-
tive in the legislature from Bexar
county, suggests the following as
substitute for the road law proposed
by Capt. Walsh, of this county:
Be it enacted, etc., that the COM
missioners' court of any county IN
this state is hereby authorized to is
sue bonds of the county for the pur-
pose of building roads and bridges
and levy tax upon the property OF
the county to redeem said bonds; pro-
vided no levy in any one year shall
exceed Is cents on the 500 valuation
of the taxable property of said county.
Abiding to this in connection with
Capt. Walsh's bill, Judge Robinson
says:
The commissioners court, as in
tended by the constitution, should
have the entire control OF the roads OF
the county. The mode and manner
of their construction should be left
entirely to their discretion. They are
presumed to represent the people, and
it is not to be supposed that they
would antagonize the wishes of their
constituents when public sentiment
was evidently against their propose j
action; therefore, an election, as pro
vided for in section l is unnecessary
or at least the question whether or
not an election should be held as a
condition precedent to the issuing OF
the bonds, should be at their discre'
| ton.
They should not be restricted as in
section 2, as to amount of interest the
bonds should bear, the length of time
to maturity, the amount of sinking
fund to be levied or date of redemp,
ton. They should be free to manage
their financial affairs for the best in
terests of the county.
The number of roads to be i'm
proved, their direction, length, etc.
should be at the discretion of the
commissioners. 1 will cite one
instance to show how a general rule
will not apply to all counties: In
Bexar county ten miles from the city
many roads reach the sand, would il
be wise in compelling the court t.
improve the road the entire distance
to the county line in order that q
fraction of eight or ten miles tina
really need it should be be macada
mized? Sections 4, 5, 6, 7, s, 9 and II
go entirely too much in detail. Al
suggestions to the commissioners they
are very good but being incorporated
in the law they must be followed
strictly.

EX-GOVERNOR IRELAND.
A Good Story Told Of This Brave Son Of
the Lone Star State.

A Good Story Told Of This Brave Son Of
the Lone Star State.
From the San Francisco Call.
A Texas member of the house tells
the following story on ex-Gov. Ireland:
1t seems that the former governor
of the Lone Star State knew more of
bravery than ne did of books, and was
better up in politics than he was in
poetry. According to the Texan Gov.
Ireland sat one night alone in his Of
fee. Being in somewhat pensive
mood he picked up a school reader,
glanced over it carelessly and finally
stopped breathless, his eyes caught by
some chance words. His secretary
entered as he finished the reading,
and, looking up at him, he exclaimed:
"James, why do they stick such a
fine thing as this away in child's
reader? It's an outrage, a shame,
that people suffer such gem to be
buried just because some poor devil
wrote it who was not Longfellow or
Shakespeare. I'll write tonight to
some OF those Eastern magazines and
enclose it. Talk about genius, why it
fairly blisters out in that poem, and
yet people are such brutes they can't
see it,"
"What's the name of it?" asked the
secretary.
al don't remember; but mean to
write half of it down and quote from
it in my next speech. Here it is. It's
called 'Grey's Elegy in Churchyard.'
The very name is poem; but listen
to one of the verses here. Could any
thing be truei of its own fate?" and
the governor squared off and read in
his best voice:
Full many a gem of purest ray serene
The dark, unfathomed caves of oceans
bear;
Full many flower is born to blush unseen
And waste it's sweetness on the desert air.
"My man, that's prophecy"

MALIETOA'S STORY.
How He Was Treated While Prisoner Of
Germany.

Uormany.
WASHINGTON, March 7.-Celso Cesar
Marine, formerly of the Pacific coast,
writes as follows: I received a letter
from Hon. George Glendan, ex-mem-
Der of the Hawaiian parliament, and
now resident of Apia, Samoan Is
lands, containing the following,
which will be interesting:
/ have jusi returned from trip by
boat with the lately exiled King NAL
ietoa Laupepa. During our stay at a
place called Malietoa, about seven
miles from Apia, the King gave a
brief outline of the cruel treatment to
which he was subjected while a cap
tive in the hands of the Germans,
which is in substance, AS follows:
During the whole time was in the
custody of the Germans / was sub
jected to the most cruel treatment.
When in Africa myself and others
with me were kept in dark cell with
many criminals of the worst descrip
ton. We were seven months in
prison in Africa. In all the

as to the Island of Jaluit Gin
the Marshall group, where was
kept a year, and on the way to Samoa
/ was treated in the most inhuman
manner. On the voyage from Jaluit
to Samoa, on board the German war
vessel Wolf, I was driven in sheer
desperation to jump overheard, with
the view of taking my own life and
thereby putting an end to my intol-
cradle suffering, for I was daily
threatened and inundated with guns
and revolvers being presented at my
head for not signing document max
ing over the Samoan islands to Ger
many. Swords were brandished in
my face frequently and the most in
sulting language was used toward
me. Death would have been a relief
from wrongs 30 fragrant and from
measures so unbearable.
king Malietoa Laupepa is very
reticent and respondent, and it seems
as if he would never survive the effects
of his ill-treatment. He is a mere
wreck of his former self.
Something of the kind is in store
for the Hawaiian islands, and King
Kalakaua, who certainly is not SO
firm and plucky as King Malietoa Of
the Samoan islands, if the United
States does not very soon and reso-
lutely step forward and declare to the
aggressive Europeans Hands off, and
more especially to England and Ger
many, and in less than quarter Of a
century to Japan and China"

Action Taken by the Citizens Committee to

Action Taken by the Citizens Committee to
Get the State Convention Here.
The committee of citizens appointed
by the Board of Trade to unite with a
similar committee to be appointed by
the city council to extend the invita-
ton of the city to the central commit
tee to call the next Democratic State
Convention at Austin, held an en-
thusiastic meeting at Washington
Hall at 4 80 p. m. yesterday; the en-
tire committee being in prompt at
tendance. Hon. o. M. Roberts was
elected to the chair, and the Hon.
A. S. Walker was elected secretary.
Hon. A. w. Terrell, Hon. A. P. Wool
bridge and Hon. E. T. Moore were APP
pointed to serve on sub committee
to draft the form of invitation.
A committee of prominent citizens
was also appointed to act with those
to be appointed by the city council to
convey the invitation to the central
committe on its meeting in Lampasas.
The greatest interest was evinced. 1t
appeared to be the general view that
in the way of comfortable hotel and
hall accommodations, Austin is
superior to any city in Texas. The
people of Texas, having here their
own magnificent representative hall
and also university hall with its ca
pacity of seating sixteen hundred, and
which by the way will be one Of
the most delightful, cool, pleasant
halls in the State, representative hall

Harrying Harrison.

Houston POSt
Mr.. Harrison appears to be strangely
unfortunate in his Southern appoint
ments. A majority of them have
been unsatisfactory to Democrats
and Republicans alike, and some of
the latter are speaking their minds in
a manner that argues i'll for party
harmony in '92. John Brown, not
the Republican who was general man
ager of the underground railway in
80 and go, but namesake of that
distinguished breeder of political dis
cord, who claims the great Goober
State as his abiding place, is the
latest to give the administration of
Harrison turning over" A negro
named Dudley was recently appointed
postmaster at Americas, Ca, and this
appears to have enraged several good
Republicans of caucasian extraction
who think that Sambo should be con-
tent to vote the Republican ticket
and pose as political martyr and not
presume to lay violent hands upon
the flesh pots. Col. John Brown has
assumed the role of spokesman for the
malcontents and his knowledge of
political history enables him to make
his protest interesting if not particu-
larly instructive. Dudley was dele
gate to the Chicago convention that
nominated Harrison. Col. Brown was
also at Chicago and he relates how he
disposed of Mr.. Dudley to the Harri-
son faction. He says:
~ collared him and led him up to
Allison's headquarters. Dudley wanted
500. I offered him to Gov. Gear and
Mr.. Henderson, who had charge Of
Allison's headquarters at that amount.
They, however, refused to buy him.
Allison was not buying delegates.
Then I led the negro out like mule
and put him on the Harrison block.
Bill Dudley of Indiana quickly bid his
price and got him for Harrison. The
negro, Dudley, carried out his con-
tract. He got his money, all he
asked, and now he gets postofice
BESIDES"
Col. Brown evidently believes that
as Dudley was purchased "like mule"
by the Harrison faction he has no
claim on the administration for polit-
ical reward. He believes that the Of
fees should be reserved for the white
Republicans, who act as middlemen
in little financial transactions, such as
that described above. Mr.. Harrison
has rocky road ahead of him. If he
appoints white Republicans to South
ern offices the blacks threaten to cast
their fortunes with the Democrats,
and if he appoints blacks to office the
white Republicans turn and rend him.
He might try the expedient of restor-
ing harmony by appointing a few
Democrats.

THE POPE'S ILLNESS.
Those Who Claim to be Well Informed Think
His Death Not Far Off.

New YORK, March 1.-THE Mail and
Express this afternoon prints special
cable dated Rome which says. The
Pope is seriously i'll, notwithstanding
all denials. Those we'll informed
think his death is not far off and that
the recent conclave received from the
Pope the intimation that his death
seemed to be near. He desired to
recommend Cardinal Vannutelli as
his successor. This step would never
have been taken unless the end was
believed to be near.
Tardinal Seraphin Vannutelli is of
Italian nationality, was born in 1884
and created cardinal in 1887.
