hand that their business will be managed
by state board of directors instead of
their own? Illinois and Iowa have
been checkboarded with railroads by
United States land grants and local aid
to begin with, and had their lands in
creased in value from 81 % per acre to
SIS, more or less, by that means? Penn
sylvsnia has made herself the greatest
manufacturing state in the Union by not
taxing capital invested in manufacturing
enterprises. Can Texas people expect to
get railroads and manufacturing enter
prises started by creating q general an
tipathy against corporations, par
ticularly railroads, in electing state
officers on q platform pledged to state
control of railroads? | think not. An
empire needing development by railroads
counted by tens of thousands of miles,
should, by every possible means, encour-
age them to be built by the most liberal
legal enaotments, instead of scts of re-
preston. Having large interest in
Texas, l trust l will not be considered as
interfering with her politics in thus Civ
ing my general views on q subject in
which every farmer is more interested
than any other class of people and should
not be misled by blind prejudice against
the most benifcent agents IN making
their farms valuable.
Railroads and a few deep water har-
bors on the gulf of Mexico, would soon
make Texas the banner state of the
Union in all that makes our nation great.
Let newspapers take notice and use
their brains and type accordingly, and
against all combinations wanting to ride
into power over our railroad cOrpses.

Some Suggestions to the People of Texas
Concerning Railroads, Politics, Etc.
Editor Gazette.
Allow me to suggest that the people of
Texas in their political canvass for state
offices will make great mistake to give
railroad enterprise notice that it must
seek other fields to develop into thriving
communities rather than Texas. If
Texas would build her own railroads
when the country needs them she would
do wise thing. But who viii build any
new roads in Texas if notified before

The pulp Case.

The hearing in the pulp case was contin.

forenoon Mr.. Libby, of the counsel for the
Otis Falls Company, read large number of
dispositions from prominent paper manufac-
turers who had used the pulp of the Otis
Falls Company, testifying to its good quail
ty. Mr.. Libby said that he would show
further on that the pulp was of precisely the
same quality as that rejected by the Poland
Paper Company on the ground that it was
inferior. In the afternoon Mr.. Hugh j.
Chisholm, of the Otis Falls Company, testi-
fled at length detailing the history of the
contract with Mr.. Milliken and the Poland
Paper Company, and the proceedings under
it to the time of their reputation. He esti
mated that the loss by the reputation of the
Poland Paper Company's contract was al
least $4,000 year. Mr.. Chisholm's exam
ination was not concluded when the court
adjourned. The case is likely to consume a

The English steamer Toronto, now lying
at the Grand Trunk wharf, discharged 90
tons of old rusty scrap iron, which is going
in bond to Montreal to the great nail fuun-
dry there. This scrap iron included thou.
sands OF small nuts and bolts, and fragments
OF every conceivable shape ard size, from
slender rods to great rusty plates that once
were parts of the Great Eastern. Small
dealers collect it from all sections in Eng
land and sell 1t to large dealers, who ship it
TO America and receive SIT ten for it. Be-
sides this' Montreal importers have to pay
freight on steamers and cars, and duty of
$l'5o per ton. 1t used to be free. but the
Canadian government believed that too
much money was made on it, and imnosed
the duty, which will soon be aised to 40 70
per ton. This old, rusty iron. when me,ted
over, is better than new iron just made from,
the ore. 1t is purer and finer grained. and II
doubtless pays well the Montreal nail manu-
facturers who import ii. The stevedores
don't like it. There is probably more swear
ing over the handling of scrap iron than any
other imports or exports.

Her eccentric habits and beautiful daughter

at the salon of one she attends dance, with
her daughter dressed as page. A young
sculptor. an intense lover of his art, has by
his close application managed to make
known his name outside the circle of his as
sociates. He falls in love with the page at
first sight. 1t is the mothers desire that the
daughter shall wed a Russian count Of
wealth. The daughter loves the sculptor
and they are married, but the Count still

on him wealth of love and affection. The
husband starts on journey, and at the last
minute changes his mind. By this means he
discovers his wife's intrgues, kills her lover

SMALL VERDICT FOR PONCE.
He Will Have to Pay the Entire Cost
of the Trial.

In the Superior Court yesterday morning
there was large attendance of people anx-
ious to hear the judges cha Ige to the iury.
Judge Bonney instructed the jury, sub
stantially that in order to recover under the
contract the plaintiff must prove that he per-
formed all that the contract called for: or If
there was any failure on his part it was due
TO the fault OF the defendants or the Masons
whom lhey represented. lie must further
snow that he got up and served the dinner 10
the satisfaction of the committee; but the
committee must act honestly and reasonably
in expressing their satisfaction or dlssatisfac-
ton. II Pence failed to do this he was not
entitled to recover. If he has proved that he
did everything he agreed to DO, or if he
failed in anything and has proved that the
failure was due not to him hut to.the Masons,
he is entitled to recover the contract price.
II the clambake was not got up according to
the contract, and to the satisfaction Of the
committee, they were at liberty to refuse to
have anything to do with it, and in that case
Ponce could recover nothing. But having
eaten portion of the food, the plaintiff is
entitled under the other count in his writ to
recover what the food they ate and disposed
OF was fairly worth; not what 1t cost Ponce
to furnish it. but what 1t was worth in the
condition it was when it was placed upon
the tables or eaten or disposed of by the
MaSons.
The jury after being out tw hours brought
In verdict for the plaintiff for $500.
This is practically verdict against Mr..
Ponce. The defendants offered to be de-
faulted for $3.50, which Mr.. Ponce refused
and insisted on trial The award of a less
sum than $3.50 accordingly throws the entire
costs of the trial on Mr.. Ponce 1t will take
about the whole $500 to make good the costs.
So Mr.. Ponce gets nothing for his clambake
The jury was excused finally.
