THE LIVING BEFORE THE DEAD.

The Waco Day with its usual apti-
tude states its position clearly and
forcibly as follows: THE STATESMAN
reprints it as an enunciation OF its own
position-which is not that we love
Jefferson Davis less, but the living and
INDECENT ex-Confederates more, and
that we can better honor the dead by,
as he would have us, caring for the
needy than spending vast sums of
money in marble or bronze. What
so suitable monument to the memo
nv OF Jefferson Davis as q commodious
Confederate Home The Day says:
A gentleman writes to The Day
that he believes, or infers, that this
paper is opposed to the Jefferson
Davis monument fund movement.
His opinion appears to be based on u
remark made by The Day to the ef-
feet chat the first duty of the South
is to the living-the MANNED and in
digent survivors of the Confederate
army" Our correspondent is re-
spectfully informed that The Day is
perfectly willing to contribute to an
appropriate monument to the memory
Of Mr.. Davis. 1t expects to do SC,
and is also willing and desires to see
others do so. But we do insist-and
if Jefferson Davis were living he would
approve the proposition-that every
Southern state ought to provide for
the comfort of the ex.Confederate sol
diers within its bounds who are indi-
gent, manned or unable to make their
own support. The point The Day de-
sired to make was that the movement
to erect a costly monument to Mr..
Davis ought not to be permitted to
Overshadow and dwarf that other and
equally commendable movement to
build up Confederate Home in this
State.

MORE CONSOLIDATION.

The antitrust bill of Senator Sher-
man, which has been favorably re-
ported by the finance committee of
the senate, is good enough so far as its
purposes go. But the principles
underlying the means proposed by
Mr.. Sherman for the attainment Of
the objects sought can not be so
readily endorsed. The bill is q re-
affirmation of the assumption in the
interstate commerce act that the
power not only to regulate commerce
between the States but their domestic
trade resides in congress. Conceding
its power to interfere in traffic between
the different States, it does not seem
in consonance with the genius of our
government, or commensurate with
its powers as modelled and understood
by its founders u century ago that
the Federal authority can step
inside State and NEEDLE
with its domestic concerns as
proposed by the Sherman bill. To
break up and destroy trusts and COM
binations to force prices to an arbi-
trary figure, is something to be de-
sired and accomplished. But when it
necessitates a further concession of
power to the central government,
which has been continually gathering
strength at the expense of the States
for the last twenty years, it is time
to deliberate upon the ultimate re-
suits. The people of the States are
becoming too Indifferent to this ac
cretion Of power in our Federal gov
eminent. Like Lord Byron, these
States may wake up some morning
and find themselves not exactly fam
Gus, but shorn of the powers origin
ally guaranteed them by the constitu-
tion-one of these is the right of
managing their own domestic affairs
inside State lines.

DAM THE COLORADO.

Texas editors must not be deceived
by the present apparent lull in the
dam business. We are getting ready.
That is all. The surveyors are hard at
work. Consulting Engineer Fannin
will be here in March. The summer
will be devoted to the work. By next
fall we expect TO have Austin booming,
real estate gone up to fancy figures, a
building boom inaugurated, and other
things too numerous to mention. To
be brief, the people of Austin
have determined on policy
OF progress. 1t is already in
augurated under practical mayor
and go ahead council. Nor do we
intend to look back, and like Lots
wife, be turned into pillar of salt.
Forward is the word. Those who have
week knees, if any, get to the rear.
In two or three years we intend to
have city here that will be the pride
OF Texas and the most beautiful in
the southwest-but city of trade,
business land commerce as well as a
city of stately buildings, romantic
landscapes and the palatial edifices Of
wealth and refinement. All Of which
can not be accomplished without an

WASHINGTON LETTER.
How the Little Silk Worm Changes Republi-
can Opinion.

can Opinion.
WASHINGTON, d. c., January 6, 1890.
There never was anything more
absurd than the recent appearance OF
Kansas congressman before the
house committee on ways and means.
The honorable gentleman told the
committee that it was absolutely nee
essary for his constituents to have
protection for their silk industry, say
ing: "Silk is raised in my district
from the , cocoon without any outlay,
and results in an addition to the in
come of the farmers, an income which
seems like finding so much money"
Then the honorable gentleman went
on to argue in an earnest manner, as
though he believed it himself, that it
is necessary to protect the people of
his district by the imposition of GUS
toms duty of 81 per pound for the "im-
portation of raw silks"
Think of that, honest men, think
of that. The little silk worm in Kan
sas costs absolutely nothing for sup
port or attention and he does not
charge the farmer cent for his SER
vices. His product is all clear profit
for his owner, but still he is in COM
petition with the pauper silk worms

AUSTIN THE PLACE FOR THE FOR
EsTRY CONVENTION MEETING.

The action of the board of trade
yesterday in inviting the members of
the various Arbor Day associations of
Texas to meet in Forestry conven-
ton" in Austin next month at the
time OF the session of the American
Horticultural society, was most OPP
Fortune and appropriate. The ninth
subject in the list of topics to be dis
cussed by the Horticultural society is
"Some Points in Forest Planting on
the Plains and Prairies." This sub
ject is to be handled first by Prof. b.
E. Fernow, OF the District of Column
bia. Prof. Fernow, from the accurate
knowledge derived from his studies
in the departments in Washing
ton, is thoroughly qualified to
discuss this question upon the
broadcast plan and upon the
most scientific basis. His essay will
be very valuable TO gentlemen organ
izing a State Forestry association.
Besides this, every meeting of this
Horticultural society will be OF interest
and value to these gent emen of GU
State who are planning this new de-
parture, and who should be thoroughly
conversant with the subject in all its
phases. 1t must be borne in mind
that this Horticultural society is not
made up Of novices, but Of the fore.
most men of the nation in their speci
atty. They come from every State in

conditions OF their several States

places quite crumbly when broken.
1t occurs often in connection with de-
posts of greensand, both altered and
unaltered and the beds of one attain
a thickness in many places of from
six to eight feet. These beds extend
from the Sabine river, in Henderson
county, as far south as Sabine county,
and only require railroad facilities to
make them of great value. The value
of the ore for the manufacture of iron
is shown by the following average
analysis made in the laboratory of
the survey:

Remarkable Rescue.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield, H.,
makes the statement that she caught cold,
which settled on her lungs; she vas
treated for month by her family physi-
clan, but grew worse. He told her she was
q hopeless victim of consumption and that
no medicine could cure her. Her druggist
suggested DR.. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption; she bought bottle and to
her delight found herself benefited from
first dose. She continued its use and after
taking ten bottles, found herself sound and
well, now does her own house work and is
a. well as she ever was. Free trial bottles

The Waco Day is an earnest friend
of the Confederate Home and says:
"The Jefferson Davis monument
fund does not seem to grow in Texas
and is tagging in other parts of the
South. The Day holds that our first
duty is to the living. Let us provide
homes for the MANNED and helpless
veterans of the lost cause, however
humble they may be if they furnish
food and shelter, and then we may
erect marble shafts to the memory of
the dead"

contains no combined moisture. In a
perfectly pure condition it yields ~
per cent of metallic iron. The mag
netite is also a compound of iron and
oxygen in proportions somewhat diI-
ferent from either of those mentioned
and pure specimens yield IA per
cent of metallic iron. The number OF
analyses that have been made OF these
ores from the various counties III
cluded in this district is very great,
and their quality is therefore no longer
a matter of doubt. Some of the ores
of Gillespie county contain consider
able quantities of manganese with the
iron, and all are comparatively free
from PHOSPHORUS and sulphur. The
following analysis shows the compost

Abundant supplies OF limestone eX-
list in the immediate vicinity OF these
ores to serve as hux, and the southern
extremity of the bituminous or central
coal field is only fifty or sixty miles to
the north, and it is to such an extent
as to render it available for smelling
them.
The distribution of these ores has
been thoroughly studied, and the repor
which is now being prepared will be
published at the earliest possible mo-
ment, accompanied by maps showing
fully the localities of the deposits.
In addition to these deposits there
are several others which have not yet
been examined fully enough to allow
definite statements to be made con-
corning them. Good ores are found
in the territory covered by the Central
coal field itself, but we know nothing
OF their extent as yet. In Trans
Pecos, Texas, fine veins of hematite
have been discovered, but they are not
available at present, lacking water
and fuel supply, and the distance be
ing too great to permit their ship
ment eastward. Nevertheless, the
amount and quality of the ores of the
districts described are fully equal to
our needs, and W. hope soon to see
them more freely utilized.

The recommendation of Secretary
Tracy's naval policy board involves a
tremendous turning loose of money,
some three hundred and fifty million
dollars. This would, it is estimated
give us two hundred and twenty-seven
magnificent war ships of one desCrip.
ton and another. England, in 1887
had a navy of two hundred and forty
six vessels, which number has of
course in the last two years been In
creased. But with what vessels we
now have and these two hundred and
twenty-seven more, Uncle Sam would
have u monstrous deal to say about
the control Of the high seas. And
think Of that much money turned
loose, put into circulation, what pros
porous days there would be! We need
a navy heaven knows, and by the plan
proposed it could be secured and the
second end mentioned also be attained.
