4 SUGGESTION TO TEXANS

Under the above caption the Chicago
Herald quotes from the Galveston
News asking why Texas does not pro
hibit the planting of so much cotton
and also prohibit all that is grown
from being sold to aliens. The state
has as much right to do this as to pro-
hibit the farmer selling his farm to an
alien and shows the utter folly OF the
alien land law as well as its detestable
paternalistic features.
The Herald says:
"Why not?" is the question asked
by the Galveston News. The News
explains what it means by the ques-
ton by adding that the farmers OF
Texas plant too much cotton, as they
all admit. The most of this cotton
goes to Europe, there to be manutact-
ured into goods, the profits on which
inure to the people of Europe and not
to the people Of this country. In
view of these facts, why not have the
legislature pass a law declaring just
how many acres of cotton shall be
planted in Texas, providing that any
sale of cotton to Liverpool buyers
shall be void, and that any money re-
ceived by Texas farmers for cotton
sold in Liverpool shall be confiscated
to the state?
AS the News remarks, the state leg
islature has as much right to do this
as it has to say that the farmer shall
not sell his farm to foreigner OF
mortgage ii for the money that he
wants to borrow. And it would be
about as sensible to do it. If the state
were to prohibit the sale of cotton for
export the New England manufac-
turers would have good thing, for
they could get their cotton very
cheap if none were exported. In like
manner, if the state shuts out
foreign money lenders and pur-
chasers of land it gives the money
lenders and land buyers of New Eng
land and other eastern states a good
thing, for it enables them to charge
high rates of interest and to buy land
cheaper than they could if they had
to compete against foreign purchasers.
The suggestion made by the News
well illustrates the absurdity and
self-destructiye folly of the war on
foreign capital. The more the capital
the better for all who have occasion
to borrow money and for all who have
property OF any kind to sell.
The country is just so much the
richer for all the capital brought in
no matter IN what it may be invested
The notion that we have anything tC
fear from foreign investments in land
should be dissipated by the notorious
fact that of the many vast landed es-
tates of the revolutionary period not
one remains today. With free trade
in land we are secure against land
monopoly"

The development Of agriculture in
the Argentine Republic, near neigh
Dor to Brazil, within recent period,
has been unparalleled. a few years
ago less than 10000 acres were under
cultivation; now over 100000 acres
are being farmed-2, 557 ,4S5 producing
wheat. In 1885 this country exported
wheat to the value of So, 139, 1856, while
in 1887 the amount rose to S9,514,000.
In 1888 the exploration of corn brought
S., 444, 4G4, while in 1889 the sales az!
gregated S12,977, 721, Brazil taking of
this amount S2,999,82S. This country
contains over 700,000,000 acres, and
from the success attained in agricul-
| ture and her known area of fertile
! lands, our farmers may well dread the
competition Of her fields, not only in
the Brazilian markets but in all the
great grain markets of the world.

not be enlarged except by slow de-
grees, and will not increase with half
the rapidity of our surplus. Great
Britain and Ireland purchased Of US
last year breadstuffs to the value of
SS3 1896, 376, and provisions, comprising
meat and dairy products, to the eX-
tent of Sill ,326,912. We have been
accustomed to hear, in season and out
of season, the people of Great Britain
denounced as the enemies of our in
dustries and our progress. Last year
England alone purchased Of us prod
ucts to the value of S376, 1920, 665, while
we took in exchange from her mer-
chandise to the value of only Sl67-
040,053. The balance of trade
in our favor was more
than 100000, 900, and in
settlement of this she gave us en-
change with which we purchased cof-
fee and rubber from Cuba and Ha-
vana and Brazil, raw silk from Italy
and various products from France,
Germany and Switzerland. The peo-
pie of Great Britain during the last
twenty years, it is safe to say, have
paid to us not less than $4,000, 100000,
more than three-fourths Of which was
for the surplus products of our farm
ers. This great trade is to be OBJ
structed in every conceivable manner,
and our farmers sent to South and
Central America, where they sold less
than S10,000,O 900 worth of products last
year. Germany, Austria, Hungary,
Italy and Switzerland have about con-
summated an agreement that bodies no
good to our farmers. France still
maintains her hostility to our
meats, while Russia is preparing to
step in and reap the harvest which,
but for our folly, would be garnered
by us. The failure of the wheat crop
this year in Russia, India and the Ar
gentine states will rebound greatly
to the advantage of our farmers, but
they must remember that this prov
idential interference will not always
protect them from the disastrous re-
suits of class legislation.
If this policy is to continue the
farmers of the West and the South
will at no distant day be demanding
more speedy and etficacious relief
than can come from the government
loans at per cent or the deposits OF
their products in sub-treasury ware
houses upon government advances.

A Brutal Outrage .

Special to The Statesman.
FORT WORTH, August 17.-Tonight
at o'clock VIII Marlborough, a ne
gro man % years old, enticed a twelve
year old negro girl into an alley way
in the heart Of the city, near Ellis
Hotel, and criminally assaulted her.
Her screams frightened the brute and
he ran. Officers appeared upon the
scene before the negro got out of the
alley, but chased him to his home sew
eral blocks away and caught him. The
girl is in critical condition. The
negroes are much excited.

There is another question in con

that should command the attention of
our farmers. Even with this arrange

likely to long continue to furnish the
people of that country with flour.
Wheat is upon the free list. In Rio

A WINDFALL
Happily Comes to Prominent Austin Bust
ness Man,

J
The following was a special tele-
gram to the Lawrence Gnd.) Register:
"LAWRENCEBURG, Ind, Aug. "A
case which in some respects resembles
the celebrated Barr will case has come
to light here in the last few days, and
two citizens Of this county are apt to
end their last days in affiuance. In
the early part of the century man
by the name of Craig settled in the
eastern part of Kentucky, and being
of a speculative turn of mind he DUR
chased 10000 acres of land, which
then sold for few cents an acre. He
held this land until his death, and it
then went to his children, part of
whom were Of age and part minors.
By some means the children of ace
disposed of the whole estate, and til e
minors received nothing, although
they were entitled to half of it. or 20
600 acres. Time rolled On and the title
was not disputed, but short time
ago an eastern syndicate purchased
the land, thinking the title was good.
About the same time one of the heirs
of the minor children left by old man
Craig found out how thugs were. and
asserted his claim. The land is
situated in the iron and coal belt, and
is now of immense value, and the SYM
dictate, finding the claim was good,
set about finding the other heirs and
getting them to settle the matter
peaceably by giving quitclaim deeds.
for which they were well paid.
In this matter Mr.. Calvin CRAIG. a
former well-to-do citizen here. was in
formed that he comes in for GOOD
slice of his grandfather's estate. His
sister is also living and will assert
her claim.
This sister is the mother of Mr.. L.
NJ. Croker Of our city.
1t is understood this claim will re-
suit in large sum to the two minor
heirs mentioned, and as one of them.
the mother of Mr.. Croker, has ONLY
two children, his part will be quite a
handsome sum. Austin people will
rejoice with him in his rare. good
fortune.

IT is altogether likely that Governor
Hogg will issue call for an extra
session of the Legislature as soon as
the official count on the amendments
to the constitution is received. THE
STATESMAN predicts that he will dc
this, and will name in his call the
passage of laws to make effective the
amendments to the fundamental law,
the re-apportionment of the state, and
he may ask that the alien land law
be considered again, and if found
hurtful or injurious to the best in
terests ofTeXas that it be amended,
but he will never ask the legislature
to repealit See how far The STATES
MAN is correct.

otherwise, the reader will understand
the milk in the lumber item.
Rebates, passes, etc.-The evidence
shows that rebates of two or more
classes were granted and that passes
and tickets were issued to friends and
revoked when friends became enemies.
! If the estimate is claimed to be excess
sive THE STATESMAN is willing to sub
NIT the question to Chairman Reagan
of the Railroad commission.
| If any Of the foregoing estimates are
not supported by the facts the further
estimate may be substituted of
$4,000 or more for fees Of
attorneys paid under special contracts.
Mr.. Duncan testified that contracts
were made with number of attorneys
to represent the road in the district
and inferior courts at fees to be fixed
for each case by the general attorneys.
The road paid in fixed fees and sal
aries to attorneys and under these
special contracts not less than so, 900
per annum.
Attorneys on the other side in the
litigation these various attorneys con-
Quoted probably received as much
more. Then, all the parties at inter
est-owners of the road and bond
holders and stockholders-had to en-
ploy extra attorneys. The road ulti-
mately pays all their fees. Then the
road paid out $4,000 on judgments in
damage suits, of which the attorneys
usually get 90 per cent. The lawyers
probably earned per annum 5000, 600
on account of the receivership. Law
yers of ability were employed. and
their services rate high. No one can
reasonably object to their salaries and
fees if their services were actually
given. Two circumstances slipped
into the testimony which created a
doubt on this point. Mr.. Campbell,
who had passed upon all the accounts
did not believe the services of the
general solicitor were necessary, and
Mr.. Duncan testified in sub
stance that Mr.. Chiltons services
were not necessary. Since Mr..
Chiffon resigned Mr.. Duncan tes-
titled that he had been able to
attend to the business of the general
attorneys with a capable young
assistant at Sl25 per month. Mr..
Chiffon had received 1928 per month
for assisting Mr.. Duncan. Mr.. Dun
can, bear in mind, had received 1925
per month on up to the time he testi-
fed, ST. 800, and had represented the
receivers in court in but one suit
When he testified that Mr.. Chilton's
services were not necessary it was not
because the legal business had dimin-
ished, for he stated that the number
of suits had increased since the re-
ceivers had been appointed. These
circumstances create reasonable doubt
as to the necessity for paying Mr..
Herndon his SO, 900 and Mr.. Chiffon
his SIS, 900 for their two years employ
ment.
There is greater question of the
necessity for paying the receivers up
to this time $4,000. The judge testi-
fies and other witnesses, that for some
six months one of them was sick and in
California on leave and the other was
utterly incapable of attending to the
business of the receivership. But
they received their pay. Their SER
vices were unnecessary if this testi-
money is true and their pay was not
earned. The railroad was MIXED by
the court presided over by judge
who knew the services had not been
performed.
