A LITERARY VISITOR.

Miss Ruth Ward, travelling cor
respondent of the Pacific Coast
Literary Bureau, arrived here by the
Australia on Friday. She is from
Leadville, Colorado, and is on a
journey round the world in the in
terest of literature. Miss Wards
debut as writer was during her
school days, when she wrote for the
press under the nom-de-plume of
"Graphio. Though quite young,
the lady has received commendatory
notices from well-known critics on
her poetry and other writings, is a
composer of music and the author
of work now in press. Miss Ward
has already travelled in SIX countries
with view of writing up each and
will do these islands thoroughly.
Dressed in bloomers and blouse she
rides bicycle where the roads per-
init, and counts miles by the twen-
ties. In conversation Miss Ward
shows q superior education, and n re-
markable knowledge of books and
authors. Her forte as a writer is in
description, her efforts in that line,
though sparkling with wit, having Il
vein Of poetic sympathy.

Rep Rosa Thirty years

EEp. EQSa" NIItE years.
Rep. Brown did not think the
Government should pay $4,000 for
q road that would pass out OF its
hands in thirty years.
Rep. Rosa was surprised at sucI,
arguments from an attorney. The
House was continually appropriating
money for road damages, etc., but
the Minister OF Interior was not
going to cXpend the money without
being sure Of the titles. There was
no doubt that ut the cud OF the
thirty years the Government would
renew the arrangement, and it would
continue TIL eternity
Noble NidemaHn claimed that
there was no more in the petition
and report than fifteen years use
Of the road.
The motion carried and the report
was laid on the table TO he consider
ed with the Appropriation Bill,
Rep. kalua, on suspension Of the
rules, presented the report of the
judiciary committee on bills Of Reps.
White and PachaOle, to amend the
laws relating tp ,lcsGltion of married
people. They find the bills obscure
IN meaning and submit an amended
bill. GA suspension of the rules he
read the bill - FIRST time, then q
second time 10y title, and finally
moved the bill pass to cngrossment.
lie held that the abolition Of i'm
irisonment Of wives for descrticn
was Il mistake and the law should
he restored
NOBLE WiGemann moved that the
bill be indefinitely postponed. He
had fought that old section OF the
Penal Code long ago, and did not
think he should be called on to li9ht
il again in his old AGE. The prison
and The Police Court were not the
places in which TO revive affection.
Rep. Paehaole was in favor Of
passing the bill. Since the old law
was abolished \ great deal OF hard
ship had been occasoncd 10y wives
deserving their husbands. Under
that law women who had been COM
PEELED to return to their spouses in
many cases lived happily with then,
ever afterward.
The bill passed. to be read third
time Friday.
Noble Phillips moved that the peti.
ton OF Skinner & Co. (London) be
taken from the table and referred tc
q committee. The mover for tabling
IL had used the argument that tho
case was in court. Now, however,
he could say that the case was taken
out of court. He proceeded to cluci
date the nature Of the claim.
Minister Brown raised the point
of order that the mover had no
voted in the majority TO lay TIT
petition on the table.
Noble Widemann said that to talk
the petition from the table and T.
reconsider were two different Ques
tions. If the hon. Noble was out c
order he would make the motion hi
own, as he had voted in the majority
The President ruled that ther
was no such rule against motto
TO take from the table.

HOUSE AND LOBBY.

Members will be ''bracing" Noble
Cornwell for cigars the rest Of the
session, in anticipation Of his great
tobacco monopoly.
The absence of Noble Parker from
indisposition, which the House and
Lobby deeply regret, has made
such big void that Noble Pua is
constrained to carry his stalwart
form across the floor every day to
fill it.
There was Hamakuan named

Grew fitful and suddenly flickere.

WHAT IS the MATTER?
EDITOR BULLETIN -

EDITOR BULLETIN:
What is the matter with those
planters who are kicking so much
against helping the railway? A great
many people thought that the mem
bers of the last Legislature were
working for their own interest, but
it seems that we have some in now
who are ten times worse. 1t looks
as if some of them are scared that
il railway reaches their plantations
the crown lands for which they pay
mere nominal rental now will so
increase In value that they will have
to pay so much more, or will stand
a chance of losing those lands TO
make homesteads for the masses,
which they do not want. Shame on
them for trying to stop industry and
the population of the islands. They
could go ahead and vote money
right and left for raising salaries,
but when IL comes to something for
building up the country they are sud-
denly seized with commissions of par
simoniousness. Look at the populated
sides of Punchbowl. Much of that
is due to the railway company. The
money earned IN working to make
the railroad has been used to build
cottages, plant gardens, and thus
make homes. What are many OF US
poor working-men to do if the rail
road cannot continue to give US en-
ployment2 We see no opening fol-
work elsewhere in the country. II
seems 10 me that most of us shall
have to starve, or clear out.

MuttEr

What Has Been Done in the Oil Inspection
Matter.
The injunction case of Meredith vs.. the
Dallas Consolidated Street Railway Com
pany, in Burke IS court, went over again.
Judge Tucker to-day rendered decree
of partition in the Mansfield vs. Mansfield
case.
Judge Tucker adjourned court at IL
o'clock to-day on account of the cold
weather.
The county court was not opened to-
day. Cause; Judge Bower is not well.
The status OF the oil inspection case
at present is this: Judge Burke has
issued supplemental decision in which
he holds that where, in the legislative
enactment, il reads Zone inspected In
other states does not come under tbs
provisions of this act,' it is
intended TO say, soil inspected in
other states, etc.. which is in line with
the decision recently rendered at Tyler.
Hon. Seth Shepherd, who Is attorney for
State Inspector Brown, has given notice
of appeal; but as the matter stands now
the Waters Pierce people are several laps
in the lead, as nearly all the oil they
handle has gone through the PenDsyl-
Tsnis inspection officers.

Rogg and Throckmorton for Commission.
The Dark Horse.

Rogg and ThrocIEmortou for a Commission.
The Dark Horse.
The Texas Farmer of Dallas has been
making inquiry lately as to the attitude
of the leading gubernatorial candidates on
the railroad commission question, and
also regarding the probability Of lock
IN the Dema4ratic convention as between
Messrs. Hogg aud Throckmorton, thereby
making room for the entrance of a dark
horse in the race. That paper has written
the gentlemen mentioned regarding the
matter, and in this week e issue Will pub
lish replies from them to the direct Ques-
tions: /. Can your friends pledge you
10 withdraw If you should not have ma
jority OF the convention? and 2. Can your
friends pledge you as in favor Of rail-
road commission, and, If so, to what eX
tent will you limit commission s power2
Mr.. Hogg's reply is to the effect that
he believes the policy Of the railroads and
spectators will be to lock the couveu-
tion; that he will not discuss political
matters until after the pressure of court
matters has been relaxed; "but when
do, - he continues, lit will be in plain
Euglish-among other things for the
b adoption of the amendment and q COM
mission -
Mr.. Throckmorton s reply is to the
point, as follows:
MCKINNEY, TEX, Feb. Pin an
swer to your letter Of inquiry, and to
your first question: "Can your friends
pledge you TO withdraw II you should not
have majority of the convention?' 1
have TO say, that when it is ascertained
by fair test IN the convention that I
have not q majority, my friends will be
authorized TO withdraw my name.
To your second question: ''Can they
(my friends) pledge you in favor of
railroad commission; and, if so, to what
extent would you limit commission IS
powers?' / answer: My friends can
pledge me upreservedlv TO q railroad
commission, with power to regulate
freight charges, and such other powers
as will enable it to properly discharge it's
duties in the protection of the interests
Of the people coufded TO its care. I
would not, however, favor any measure
that would deprive railroads OF fair and
just compensation for the service rem
dered by them. Very respectfully,
J. W. THRoCKMoRToN.

Grand Windsor was another party Of
gentlemen, these being railway mag
mates, no other than @. w. White, pres
ident; e. J. Gurley, vice. president and
treasurer; II. M. Taylor, secretary; w.
II. Ross, general manager, and 6. B.
Gurley, chief engineer OF the Gulf, Bra
EOS Valley and Pacific railway.
When these two parties met there was
q Joint adjournment taken to secluded
quarters.
At the end of a couple OF hours the gen.
tlemen emerged again, and it had been
arranged that Henrietta was to be the
northern terminus OF the Gulf, Brazos
Valley and Pacific railway and Mr.. Wor-
sham had taken dictatorship in the COM
pany.
Chief Engineer Gurley at once COM
menosd arrangements to go to Mineral
Wells with his party, calculating to be
at that point Saturday morning to COM
mencs work on the line from Mineral
Wells to connection on the Texas and
Pacific, the definite point Of the connec-
ton being yet an unsettled point, prob
ably Weatherford or Milsap.
Arrangements are being made for COM
mencing work from the Waco end up the
Brazos river. Col. E. J. GurleY has
gone to Houston to meet representatives
OF the syndicate which is operating ct
the mouth of the Brazos, to conclude
arrangements for terminal facilities at
that point.
The gentlemen who are working up
this gigantic project are of good sub
stance, and have backing. They
have recently completed sixty miles
Of road for the Arkansas Pass
running into Waco from the south. This
Brazos valley line will furnish the most
direct southern connection tor the Rock
Island with the gulf, making connection
at Henrietta; and will pass through the
coal fields of Parker, Palo Pinto and
Jack counties, furnishing q direct line
for the transportation of coal from those
vast fields TO Central and Southern
Texas. The projectors claim that the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas line from
Trinity, in the long leaf pine country, to
Waco ia an assured thing; aud then the
Gulf, Brazos Valley and Pacific will be
able to secure return freights Of lumber,
which will give it Immense advantage in
hauling coal south
Work, it is asserted, will Immediately
commence on the new road.
