THE RdTN-uiKERS.

While the rain-making expert
ments proceed, the laugh goes gaily
round among the people who know
nothing about science, and whose pro-
phetic vision does not extend further
than the comprising of the next
meal. Inventors in all ages have
worked to the music of those inane
cachinnations. When some man in
vented a wheel that was round in
stead of square, what a howl of mer-
riment went up! Why, any idiot
could see that the thing wouldn't go!
1t was impossible that it should! And
SO the chorus went on, until, most un-
expectedly, the thing went; since
which time nothing has been heard
of the testers. And when the Mont
golfer brothers were at work on those
curious windbags, how ignorance
stood by and shook it's sides with
laughter. But the windbags floated
off, leaving the croakers behind. In
view of these things, THE STATESMAN
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1891-09-17

that state, made the assertion that all
the school furniture used in Texas
came from Wisconsin. The remark
was doubtless true. We know, at
least, that the furniture used in Texas
is not made in this state. He might
have gone much further, and stated
that all the house furniture used in
Texas is imported from other states;
that Texas imports her wagons and
carriages, her plows and hoes, and
tools of every description, and that
she makes virtually nothing for her
own use. This might be paroonable
if the state were without timber suit
able for these purposes, but the sad
truth is that she has thousands of
acres of timber adapted to the finest
furniture, to the building of vehicles,
to the construction of tool han
dies and almost anything else that
can be made from wood. 1t is a hui
fact that In the midst of all
this abundance Texans will purchase
the very seats upon which their chill
dren sit at school from states no bet
ter supplied with timber than Texas
herself. But these other states are
better supplied with energy and grit,
and with the far-sightedness that en-
ables them to take advantage of op-
portunities and make the most of
them. 1t is time for Texas to wake
up and consider where the greater
part of her capital goes.

CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE.

The New York World, referring to
the collapse of the Park Place build
ing, makes the astounding statement
that six hundred buildings are re-
corded on the books of the fire de-
partment as condemned. In every
instance an official notice has been
posted on the door, headed "This
building is condemned" and in every
case the warning has been torn down,
or other bills posted over it. Some of
these condemned buildings are five
or six story flats, harboring ten or
twelve.families. Many of them are
crowded tenement houses; many
others are business houses, some of
them containing heavy machinery;
and some of them even front on Wall
street and are filled with offices. In
many cases the warning of the in
spectors has gone wholly unheeded.
In others, bitter quarrels have
arisen as to what would be the best
means of remedying that trouble, and
out of whose pocket the money would
come. In the meantime, people come
and go in the condemned buildings;
helpless families are housed in them;
and at any moment the horrors of
Park Place may be repeated. Such
things will continue to be, until some
day justice will demand that the man
who sacrifices human lives through
criminal negligence shall be made to
suffer as severely as though he had
killed so many victims Intentionally
and in cold blood. No man has a
right to be "criminally negligent"
1t is time that the law should cease
furnishing this safe hiding place for
men who sweep through the world
leaving a path of devastation behind
them, and doing as much harm as the
most vicious criminal with the most
cold blooded intentions could possibly
do.

RAILROAD EXTENSION.
The Mexican International to be Built to

Special to The Statesman.

Special TO The Statesman.
EAGLE PASS, Tex, Sept. 9.-The
construction of the long talked of en-
tension Of the Mexican International
railroad from it's present terminus at
Torreon to the city of Durango will be
commenced on Tuesday, the 18th.
Mr.. w. Y. Robinson, the contractor,
and the outfit, which is at present
awaiting orders on the line of the
Monterey and Gulf, will be
moved to TOrreon as soon
as practicable. That will be
the starting point; and the extension,
which is about 100 miles long, will be
completed within two years. This
road will penetrate the heart of the
richest state in Mexico and at its ter
minus will find city Of 10000 in
habitants. This city and the immense
mineral wealth of the state has hith-
erto been practically cut off from the
markets of the world by lack of trans
portation. The day chosen for the be-
ginning Of this important work is the
anniversary of the birth Of President
DiaX.

ARKANSAS HARBOR.
The Second Payments on Notes Given for
Lots Not to be Made

Special to The Statesman.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Sept. 1.-TWO
years ago the Arkansas Habor City
Improvement company acquired u
good deal Of sandy beach on the gulf
coast of Texas and received permits
sion from congress to construct deep
water harbor at Arkansas Pass and be-
gan advertising extensively in North
ern papers and 100000 worth of lots
were sold at public cutlery. The con-
ditions were one-third cash, the bal
ance in one and two years. The COM
pany on its part, agreed that the bona
tide work for the deepening of Aran-
sas Pass should begin by May II,
1891. The second payments on
the lots are now due, but
some of the owners of the notes
will protest them on the ground that
the company has not filled its part of
the contract. No work towards deep
ening the harbor has been done. A
railroad to run to the future port was
graded for one mile and the work
stopped. Over 100000 is due next
week by purchasers of the lots, and
they declare they will not pay cent.
An enormous litigation will result.
Prince Russell Harrison is president
of the comp zny and has come in for

promised there should be $4,000 peo-
pie, there are now 500. He once
piloted an enthusiastic excursion to
the Pass.

TIE Chicago Herald has been inter-
viewing Porter, and closes the inter
view with the following criticism:
"Porter says that the women in his
department are more deXterous, more
amenable to instruction, more consci-
entious, more exact and do more work
than the men. 1t is unfortunate for
the country that one of them was not
appointed superintendent of the cer-
sus i'm Porter's place.
