The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1890-02-13
AUSTIN'S FUTURE.

That Austin five years hence Will
have fifty thousand population and
fifteen millions taxable wealth is a
foregone conclusion. Nothing is
more possible, few things more prob
able. 1t is entirely within our power
to accomplish so desirable an event.
But it will require pluck and enter
prise to do it. The water
power OF the Colorado must
and will be brought in as
factor and lever to start other en-
terprises. Then we must have other
railway connections-one to Mason
and into the west; another short line
TO tap the road from Taylor to Bas'
trop. In other words, Austin must be
made more of what the railroad men
call a common point" than she is now,
so as to give our wholesale trade liv-
ing chance to compete with other and
rival Texas markets. All this is feas-
ible. When these are accomplished
as they will be in the near future, the
citizens of Austin will be surprised at
the effect upon the business interests
OF their city. But to do these things
we must pull together as one man.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1890-02-13
AN ADDRESS.
DR.. Bragg, President Of the Arbor nay AS
sociation. shows Some OF the Benefits.

ISOLATION. Shows Some OF the Benefits
The citizens of Austin are generally
aware Of the action of the last leglsla-
ture in designating the ODD of Feb
ruary to be observed as Arbor Day.
The law reads as follows: "Be it en-
acted by the legislature OF the state
of Texas, that the 22d day of Feb
ruary OF each year, the same being
now legal holiday, be further set
apart and designated as Arbor Day,
to be devoted to the planting and Gull
tivation of forest, shade and orna-
mental trees throughout the tie,
and to be observed for that purpose in
such manner as may seem best to
the people of each community.
Acting under the law and at the
suggestion of number OF our enter
prising citizens, ladies and gentlemen,
public meeting was held and an or
ganization perfected to be known as
the Austin Arbor Day association.
The object: While it is the pur,
pose of this association to carry out
the legislative enactment by cO-Ol err
ating with other Arbor Day assOcia'
tiOns in the formation of "a State For
estry association, the main Object
sought and special work of this Local
organization will be to discuss methods
ways and means for the improvement
of our own city; to assist in better
ment of streets and sidewalks; the as'
adjustment and protection of public
parks and grass plats; to encourage
the culture of shrubbery and flowers
in short, to assist generally in any
move looking to the adornment OF
public and private property.
In this laudable undertaking the as
ISOLATION hopes and most reasonably
expects to have the sympathy and ac
tive cooperation of every man, woman
and child in Austin, nothing short o
this will insure success commensurate
with che Importance of the work to bt
done.
Should the hopes Of this association
be realized what are some OF the bene
fits arising therefrom?
l. twill bring rapid increased valua
ton OF properties.
2. 1t will entice hundreds of health
pleasure and home seekers, many o
whom will become permanent c!ti
zens.
3. 1t will provide for all classes o
society healthful and proper places TO-
pleasure and Amusement.
4. 1t will stimulate among our PEG
pie love of home and cOmmendabl,
pride in our city; an admiration of thu
true and good, a love of nature anC
natures god, and stand as a living
monument to their enterprise and in
telligence. Respectfully,
THos. H. BRAGG,
President Austin Arbor Day Associa
ton.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1890-02-13
THE HOUSE OF ORLEANS.

The arrest and imprisonment OF the
young Duke of Orleans, son OF the
Count de Paris, and claimant OF the
French throne, must have been con-
templated by the royalist party and
anticipated by the duke himself.
There has been so far no evidence Of
a conspiracy to re-enact the escapade
OF Louis Napolean at BOulOgne in
1910, which consigned him to life i'm
prisonment. But it looks like a
shrewd game Of the monarchists to
advertise the young prince and feel
the pulse OF the French, who, rs his
tory shows, can shuttle off royalty or
Republicanism with equal grace and Ia
cility when they get tired OF either.
The presence of the young representa-
tive of the Bourbon dynasty in a
Partisan prison among such people
as the French will do more towards a
reinstatement of the house of OIle ears
than if the duke were free. The
scheme, however, appears to have
fallen flat, and the arrest Of the
royal adventurer has so far crea ted
no particular enthusiasm, much less
popular demonstration. Indeed, about
the only chance of reaching the French
heart seems by the military route, anC
had the Duke of Orleans approached
his countrymen with the glitterinl
fame won ON the battlefield he would
have stood some show. The BourbOn'
ruled France from 1899 to 1892, WERE
kept out of power from that date til
1915, and then, in the person of Louis
Philippe, he'd the throne till 1913
1t may be the destiny Of this remark
able fami y, which has exercised Sc
strong an influence in France for sil
hundred years, to regain power. But
from the result of the descent of thu
Duke of Orleans on Paris, such al
event probably lies in the very distant
future.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1890-02-13
TO OUR WEEKLY READERS.

1t is the purpose of the manage
ment to give the readers OF The
WEEKLY STATESMAN as good a news
paper as possible. Already our col
umns are full of the latest telegraphic
news and all Austin matters that will
prove of interest to those outside the
CITY. In addition, the fullest depart
ment notes of any paper in the State
are published, showing every item OF
business OF Importance performed by
our State government. But in this
issue new departure is made. The
services of Mr.. John G. Edgar, OF
Duval have been secured to contribute
each week two columns of live and
interesting agricultural matter. MIR.
Edgar is a skillful, successful and
highly educated farmer, close and
wide reader, and well up with all the
latest and most approved methods OF
his profession. His letters will not be
fine spun theories, but sound, practi-
cal articles, of use and benefit to the
farmer in his everyday round OF duties.
THE STATESMAN is assured these col
umns will prove invaluable to the
farmers, and they will continue a
leading feature of our weekly. The
effort shall be made to publish good
weekly, and we ask the assistance Of
our farmers to this result. Contribute
to its columns, and make it doubly
interesting to yourself and your neigh
bors. We would be household
friend.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1890-02-13

AND still the political items come
in. The Express says: ais it singu-
lar that no candidate has announced
in opposition to Land Commissioner
Hall? Have the patriots judged his
fighting capabilities by the exceed
ingly neat manner in which he dis
posed of the attorney general? Shall
it be said that they are afraid OF the
roseate Richard?" If not afraid they
at least all recognize his eminent
suitability for the Office and concur in
the verdict that he should be kept
there. At least three of the present
administration can with great profit
to the State be retained in their pres
ent positions.

COMPTRoLLER'S DEPARTMENT.

COMPTROIIER'S DEPARTMENT.
The comptroller's report shows the
amounts received during the year
from redemptions of lands sold to the
state to be $40, 3O4.S3. Of this amount
$l3,S33.ll was state tax for which
the property was originally sold, the
balance, 6,47l.72 being the penalty
paid the state by reason OF the de-
linquency. While there is consider
able increase in the amount of prop
erty redeemed over last year, viz
One hundred and two thousand, seven
hundred and seventy-four acres, 1913
one. fourth lots, 30 blocks, IL improve
ments, still there is no proportionate
increase in the amount of tax col
lected, which is attributable to the fact
that the state tax for 1888 was only
10 cents ON the 500 valuation, and
also to the relief law passed by the
Twenty-first legislature, which pro-
vided for the redemption OF lands by
payment of per cenG interest on
original tax instead of double the tax.
Thus if tract of land had been sold
for IS state tax for 1856 it was ne
cessary to pay 80 to redeem that
tract prior to the law of March Z
1889. After the passage OF the relief
act it was necessary to pay 5 per cent
interest ON the original tax, which for
two years would have been 80 cents
penalty instead OF 80.
The amount Of redemption receipts
issued on land redeemed in the coun-
ties. September, 1882, To- August 81,
1889 is tax and penalty $I3l.3l2.lj
OF this amount 4O,I46Z6 WAS the
penalty Gntcrest, etc.), being about -
per cent Of the original tax lwuirE
was sol 1873. so and was paid To- Jn,
state by reason OF this delinquency.
Thus it will be seen that the state
does not make bad inyestmCntw when
she becomes the purchaser at tax sale.
as she gains about # per cent 10y 'h"
transaction. The sales to the st,tC
during this time from the yclrs lsH4
to 1888, was 1927, Ol5.67. Ecdenp-
tons from sales are being made
rapidly. Whenever a sale is ef.
fecteJ of real estate, and the same
has been sold to the state, it is
4 universal rule that the purchaser
requires that the land shall be cleared
from all such sales. We gain this
information from inquiries made daily
Mt this office The sales are decreas-
ing yearly. Many sales are erroneous
on account of conflicts and the land
being distracted more than once. (See
