[rRoM FRIDAYS DAILY.


The following letter, rather severe
on Eastern railroad men and news
papers, was given out yesterday:
AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. %.
James r. Robinson, Esq, Fort Worth:
DEAR SIR: l am in receipt of your
letter of the 2lst inst. in which you
advise -rne that "a number of Fort
Worth gentlemen are trying to build
railroad from here (Fort WORTH &c
the Northwest, and have associated
with them some Eastern friends who
are endeavoring to float the enter
prise" And you add:
"In these letters to the Fort Worth
parties, they say that but for the
supposed untriendliLess of the people
of Texas aud the commission they
could easily succeed"
You mention that "the Fort Worth
people know that the eastern capt.
lalists are mistaken, but they are un-
able Of themselves to correct the inn
preston, and think q statement from
you mel would materially aid them"
For myself and my brother commits
sioners | declare that we know of no
prejudice among the people Of the
state against railroads, and on the
contrary, we know that the people are
anxious to secure the construction Of
railroads.
They have testified this in the past
by liberal subsidies given by the
state to secure their construction, and
by the numerous bounties given by
COMMITTEES cities towns and private
citizens in all parts of the state,
and this commission has from time to
time declared in it's correspondence
with those interested that it not only
had no hostility to railroads, but on
the contrary recognized their great
value in securing the development OF
the State and in promoting the well
fare and prosperity of the people.
We have repeatedly stated and now
repeat that the prosperity of the peo-
pie and of the railroads are so inter-
dependent upon each other that the

RIO GEANDL City, Tex, Dec. 2C. -
On the third instant a dligeu from
Camargo, Mexico, who conveys pass
engers in hacks from that city to the
San Miguel station on the Matamoras
road, twenty-one miles distant, came
to Col. Rafael Aldarate here who is q
United States grand juror at the Jan
uary term next at Brownsville, and
wanted to make contract with him
and the witnesses before the same
court TO take them from the ferry on
the Mexican side opposite Rio Grande
City to San Miguel station. Mr.. AL
derete told him, fearing he might be
& etained by the troops on the Mexican
side, he had concluded to go down on
the Texas side. AT the suggestion of
the hack driver Col. Alderete told him
to ask the military commander at Ca
MARCO if he, as a grand juror, aad the

court, of whom there will be a large
would be permitted to go in
hacks on Saturday before the meeting
of the court to San Miguel, and the
following is n translation of the COM
mander's reply be telegram:
CAMARGo, Dec %, 1891.
Permission has been asked to pass
through Mexican territory. The
general has decided it would be I'M
desirable for groups Of men, such as
described by you, under the circum-
stances existing, TO do so. L thus
notify you for Your guidance.
LUIS YGAGUIRE.
Heretofore jurors and witnesses have
gone by the Matamoras railroad for
to save a long ride in
hacks or horseback on this side, and
they cannot imagine why they should
be denied the right. Now as soldiers
from Fort Ringgold are witnesses,
also as a few days ago they lost Il
comrade and risked their lives to pre-
vent the revOlutionists from invading
the Mexican territory controlled by
Gen. Lorenzo Garcia, the embargo is
not liked bv them.

interests for the promotion OF Che well
tare OF the railroads: and we believe
tue people Of Texas know and APP
prove our views.
But we see that attempts are being
made TO cripple our efforts
and 20 discredit the commission
and to secure the repeal of the
law by the managers OF some, at least
okthe railroads who wish to regain
the unrestricted control OF the com.
nlerce OF this state for their own pur-
poses, and by certain daily newspa-
pers OF this state, which, we believe,
are controlled by mercepary and self
ish motives in constantly making
what they must know 10 be false state
ments about the effect of the commits
sion law and the actions and motives
OF the commissioners.
Now when the crops of the state
nave been abundant and when but for
the scarcity OF money and low prices
OF products the state would be more
prosperous than ever before, these
venal newspapers are declaring that
the commission law and the action of
this commission are paraiyzng indus
y >
roads, depriving workmgmen of their
employment necessary to their sup
port and plunging the state into ruin.
These statement are utterly false,
as all good citizens know, and they
amount to treason TO the best interests
Of the state. They are made in the
face ofthe fact thai recently published
statements IN the New York Finance
and Chronicle and the Houston Daily
Post OF the gross earning Of the rq'l-
roads of this state for corr l.r8'u
periods during this and ls som.
show an increase III earning $50
same period this season, AMI tHp.s Is
AS much railroad building going u
now as there was at the s fu t.Uy
last year. And the men who make
the statements know that they are
sacrificing the interests and honor OF
Texas for pecuniary gain Tor them
selves or their masters.
Some of the railroad men use the
same false stories in the effort 10 IN
timidate the commission aud iuiiu-
ence its action because of their desire
to make the railroads the masters OF
the state and her people Instead of
dllONluS Jncln 10 De D)uDu ~ l3N 10
justice and fair dealing. We are now
going through the same struggle
which every other state has had TO
pass which has adopted O gailroad
commission as a means of )tecting
the people against the rapacity Of
railroad corporations.
And we now must expect tomeet all
the misrepresentation and threats
which have been visited on other
states and people under like circum.
stances. But this need not deter capt.
talists from investing in railroads in
this state. Their capital and property
will be as securely protected here as
in any state in the union.
Such capitalists will themselves
know what allowance to make ds Va
the false statements which havo gone
abroad about the action of the com
mission. When informed thai up tC
this time, while we have adopted some
commodity tariffs, we have adopted
no rates on general merchandise and
that as to the great body of the com
merce of Texas, it is still carried on Al
rates prescribed by the officials Of che
roads and not by the commission

TO CONVERT THE NoMADs.
A New Religious Order for Special Work
in the Sahara Region.

| in the Sahara Region.
| Cardinal Lavigerie, who has done SO
much to abolish African slavery, has
given his sanction to the formation OF a
new religious order having for it's special
object the conversion to Christianity OF
the peoples in and around the Sahara
| Desert. The name of the new order,
says the Chicago Post, is the Brothers OF
the Sahara. 1t is the purpose OF this
brotherhood to advance as fast as they
can safely do so from oasis to oasis
across the desert, and thus to be the
advance guard in pushing French in
fuenqe through the great regions which
she has recently acquired. Thus far the
Catholic church has been very unfortol-
nate in it's endeavors to extend it's mis-
sionary work across the desert. Quite
number of it's missionaries who started
to cross the Soudan have been killed by
fierce no1nads. This time the mission
aries will not attempt to push forward
any faster than it seems safe to advance.
Their first religious establishment has
been opened at Bislkra, in southern AL
geria, where the members of the order
are receiving preliminary training in
languages and native usages SO that
they may easily carry On their work.
They intend to receive under their roof
all wayfarers, fugitive slaves, sick and
infirm people who require either shell
ter, hospitality or medical care. 1t is
hoped before very long to found
branches of the order in Tugurt and
Wargla, the next stages on the desert
route.
1t is probable that the fierce Tuaregs
who killed Nine. Time, the celebrated
Dutch traveller, several other well
known explorers and every missionary
who has ventured into their territory,
will soon cease to be the plague of the
desert. Between the persistent mis-
sionary influences that are constantly
making Roadway, and the purpose of
the French, in one way or another, to
overcome the hostility of the Tuaregs,
these fierce nomads will have an ex-
ceedingly hard time of it if they do not
cease their attitude Of persistent hos
tility toward every white enterprise
that is pushed toward their country.

Absent-Minded.

An absent-minded man created quite
sensation on Sixth street a few even
ings ago, says the Cincinnati Enquirer.
He was in a store making purchase.
The clerk who waited on him went
down into the cellar where the goods
were stored, taking a lighted candle
with him. After securing it he returned
and placed the lighted candle on the
counter while he tied up the goods. He
had hardly begun when the man threw
down the money, and grabbing the CAM
die, dashed out of the store to catch q
passing cable car. He had almost
caught it when the shouts of several
boys made him aware of the ludicrous
picture he presented, and he hastily
returned to the store and profusely
apologized to the clerk for the mistake
he had made. I'll
