The great state of Texas is COM
ing forward grandly as an agri-
cultural commonwealth. The day
was when Texas people thought
the state was not good for much
but cotton in the good lands and
wild cattle raising in the undevel-
oped sections. Now it is found
that counties heretofore consider
ed very unproductice are turning
out good crops of wheat, oats,
corn and of course all kinds of live
stock. Texas may rejoice that

Regarding the proposed plan
for the establishment of sub-heas-
uries, the Washington correspond
ent of the Galveston News says:
"If they are constitutional they
are impractical, but the best think
els and best trained lawyers have
no hesitancy in denounsing the
whole scheme as not only yisiona-
ry but clearly in conflict with the
mudsill law of this government.
Be tie Demand for relief in the
way saggested has had the effect
d sIemohstrating not only that the
farmers are being oppressed by
present conditions, but that their
distress has been the means of
quickening their minds. They
are thinking. Their representa-
tiyes appreciate this and there is
no doubt that the result will be
beneficial to the agricultural clas-
es. The agitation has already had
an effect. For over a week the
silver bill has been discussed in
the senate and the depression
among the farmers has been held
up in glowing terms by those who
want the currency expanded as
proof of the result of a contraction
of that currency. There is not
near enough money to pay debts.
How then can they be paid? The
democrats to man are in favor of
more money. The farmers of the
west have about whipped the re-
publican senators from that sec
ton into line. The only opposi-
ton to unlimited coinage is now
confined to the east, or manufac-
turing districts, but it is hardly
strong enough to prevent the pas
sage of some sort of silver bill
which will give relief"

TunNING THE TABLES.

New Haven UnmeYelfully Chaseases
 Wllmihgton's Ease Hall Players In
 tho Second Game-Doran's Curves and
 schoneck,s Batting open she Cranks'
 Eyes.
 WILMINGTON, May 1.-New Haven's base ball players effectually turned the tables on the home team in to days game and took ample revenge for the defeat of the day be- fore. Doran's curves were something that troubled the local players badly. Schoe- necks heavy batting makes the cranks open their eyes in astonishment. The local team were not allowed to score till the ninth in- ming. and this was upon an error. A notable feature of the game was the put outs. Schoe- neck put out but three men on first base. Mckee in left field retired eight men on beau. tiful fy catches. Hofford did more than his share behind the bat by retiring five men.
 Doran had the home team at his mercy. At the bat and in the field, the Elm City players were vastly superior to their oppo- nents. Schoeneck is looked upon as won- derful batter by the Wilmington cranks. In to-days game he hit the ball for home run with two men on bases. It was line drive and went plump through an eight inch hole in the center field fence. "Snap" Lang put the ball over the same fence with e man on first base.
 Rain stopped the game in the fifth inning but after waiting 6 few minutes the play was resumed. If the unpleasant weather continues there will probably be no game tomorrow. The grounds are in very bad condition.
