1t is now decided beyond doubt that
within the next ten days electric cars
will again be operated on the Grand av-
enue line, west of Victoria street. The
stoppage of this portion of the line has
been the subject of much newspaper
comment the past week, the citizens of
Manchester Park making loud "kick"
against the cutting off of their trans
portation facilities. To any one who
has carefully followed the newspaper
correspondence the case of the street
railway company-represented in this
instance by Messrs. Cochran and Ire
land-had justice on Its side. The
trouble has now been happily adjusted.
Messrs. Cochran and Ireland have Sc
cured new agreement, by which Grand
avenue is extended through the park,
and no further difficulty need be antici-
pated. In connection with the resump-
ton of travel through to the river, also
comes the welcome news that all the
cars, instead of One-half as hitherto. will
run the entire length of the
line. 1t was found impossible to
do this until an additional wire
had been furnished from Oakland
avenue. This wire is to be erected
forthwith, and the additional motive
power Will be sufficient to allow extra
cars to be put on the line and cover its
full length.

TEXAS CROPS AND WEATHER

! the cotton crop In the vicinity of
Orange WIS unusually large this season.
The crop of cotton in Colorado county
Is estimated to have been twenty-five
per cent short of what it was last ear.
| The cotton crop of Austin county, says
the Times, is about gathered, with the
exception of a few bales in the bottom
lands. A good deal CT the crop is yet
unmarketed. Those farmers that are
able are holding it for better prices.
Altogether, IL has been very fair crop,
| and it is safe to say that the total for the
county has not been less than 20 900,
! bales.
Hood county farmers are nearly
through gathering their crops. The
cotton yield is abouc twenty-five per
! cent better than expected two months
ago.
There has been marketed ut Brown
wood this year about 500, 900 bushels of
wheat.
The Greer County News has statistics
from Kenton and Aaron which show the
acreage OF wheat sown by seventy three
farmers in the fall OF 1899 and 1890. Last
year there was an average of twenty
four acres TO the farmer and this year
there is an average of sixty-eight acres,
or nearly three times as much.
About 100 bales OF cotton have been
shipped from Seymour this season. Half
is yet to be shipped aud 200 bales will be
about the shipment Of cotton from Sey-
mouT. Cotton was only an experiment
in Baylor county this year. but from oil
reports this will be one of the chief pro-
duets of Baylor county in the future.
JACKSONVILLE. Dec. s - We were
visited by tirst-class storm Saturday
night. Much damage was done IN the
country, uprooting trees, blowing down
fences and some few houses. No one
hurt as far as heard from. A heavy
rain followed. and tonight il IS very
cold. Cotton picking is about over with
US, and chattle mortgages on the crop TO
be planted for 1891 are being fled.
SNYDER. Dec. S.-The fail rains give
surety of a fine stand of wheat, and
with Il rain in January will make oats
certainty. The question of farming is
no longer an open one, as the success OF
the cotton crop has proved to the verisst
skeptic that this country is specially
adapted to the growing of the staple.
The county has produced at least 80 bales
OF cotton to nine OF last seus0l.
CoMANCHE, Dec. 9.-we have had
world of rain here, and while it retards
the work ot building in Comenche, some
what, 1t is fine on the wheat crop.

potatoes is beng loaded on the side track
TO be shipped TO Pueblo, Col. There
were several shipments of nursery stock
to different points this day, one TO Cor
sicana and another to Fort Worth.
KEMP. Dec. 9.-The cotton season is
almost over. This place has received
nearly 1900 bales, much more than was
expected. We are enjoying some real
cold weather. Ice this morning was
half an inch thick.

We have been deluding ourselves,
down here In 1exas-we have been de-
luding ourselves, or the census lies.
Probably both. Texas is not filing up
so rapidly as we had led ourselves to be-
leve. From 1870 TO 1850 the increase in
our population was almost 100 per cent.
From 1880 to 1890 il was but little more
than 40 per cent. Had we kept up the
rate of increase of the previous decade,
we should now show population of
5000 900, instead of 2 1869 900. There
is every reason why this rate should be
kept up. We have millions of acres Of
productive land, to be had cheap and on
long time. Our railroads penetrate all
parts of the state. and reach the great
foreign marts. Our taxes are SO low as
almost TO be unfelt. The laws are re-
epected, and life and property are as
safe here as in any other state. Our

climate is mild and the extremes of heat
aud cold are unknown. Markets for the
products of che husbaudmau' and the
artisan labors are at hand, and the
remuneration is generally above that
which rules in other states. With every
thing SO inviting, why ia so much Of our
vacant domain still untitled, and why
are so many million dollars worth of

North?
1t is as Mr.. Hurley says. We do not
proclaim our advantages in the right
way. a community will take squirt
and invest few hundred dollars in
especial edition. of some paper, and
then, fatigued by the effort, rest from
its labors. The special edition is good
enough, but it must be reinforce by
liberal distribution OF the home paper by
every town that would get ahead. That
is constant worker. What q splendid
array the 600 papers of the state would
make if only 500 Of each were sent out of
the state each week for a year! Three
