AUSTIN, Ten, Sept. 9-Following is the
opinion in full of Judge Key of the Travis
county district court in the matter OF Re
ceiver Giles application for permission 10
expend $50, 900 or SO 600 in the purchase of
rolling stock. steel rails, etc, for the East
Line and Red River railroad:
The State of Texas VS.. the East Line and
Red River Railway company. In district
court, Travis county. In Chambers.
At the suit of the, state judgment was
rendered in this cause May %, 1850, for
feiting the charter of the East Line and
Red River railroad company, and reciting
that if the case should be affirmed on APP
peal, that receiver would be appointed, as
prayed for, to take charge of the property
of said corporation
On appeal the Judgment was affirmed,
and the supreme court held that it was
proper that receiver should be appointed;
and thereafter w. NJ. Giles was appointed
and qualified as such receiver. For rea-
sons, not necessary here TO state, posses
sion of the property of the defunct corpora
ton was.not obtained until April l3. 1891.
The receiver now presents an application,
accompanied,by detailed statement of the
condition of the road, its rolling stock. etc,
eShing for an order authorizing him to pur-
chase, for the use OF said railroad, rolling
stock, to cost about S+4, 80, and steel rails,
to cost about Sl7,235, and to remove two
to put in four new switches at small cost.
The attorney general, in behalf of the
state, joins in this application. The stock

mortgage bonds of said corporation, and

company. now holding claim arising out
of an adjustment with the receivers of that
company, from whom Receiver Giles OBJ
tanned possession of the property. resist
the application. The essential grounds of
resistance by the stock and bondholders are
embraced in the following propositions,
taken from the brief fled by their counsel:
y. That the state having withdrawn the
franchise of the East Line and Red River
railroad company 10 be a corporation-hav-
ing forfeited its charter and taken its cor
porate life-the parties interested in the
res (the railroad and all the properties ana
franchises which survived the dissolution
of the corporation} who are not in posses
sion and not operating the road, owe no
duty to the public. and none that they, di-
rectiy or indirectly, can be compelled TO
perform, and that ths court, through its re-
ceiver has No right, at their expense and
against their protest, TO put the road in con-
ditien to render present effective service to
the public or to meet its future needs

would be No" OF course. Factories

no woman can be blamed for not want
ing to kiss Galveston man, which is a
reasonable excuse for her action. But,
on the other hand, the only chance d
Galveston man has to get kiss is from
Galveston woman. If his own people
won't kiss him, who will? And the
woman, when she married him, knew
well enough what she had to expect.
and took upon herself an obligation to
let the man kiss her. The man couldn't
help himself, but the woman could.
We pity her, but We cannot say she is
free from blame.

PROVIDENCE THE FARMERS ONLY
ALLY.

We hear a great deal about short
crops in Europe and elsewhere, and the
hope is held out to the American
farmer that he will get good price
for his grain this fall and winter on ac-
count OF the demand from Europe
That is pleasant enough, to be sure, and
the Dakota farmer VIII doubtless felici-
tate himself on the fact that a sort OF
famine reigns over the water. But
how if the conditions were altered :?
Suppose providence had been kinder to
the Europeans, and that they would not
want more than half OF our POO 900, 900
bushels OF surplus wheat. What then?
Would Mckinley's tariff. Blaine's recip-
rOcity. Harrison ship subsidies. or the
blessed 'home market" afford any re-
lief to the Dakota farmer or find a mar
ket for his surplus 100,000.000 bushels
of wheat? The more, it seems. We have
OF those potent Republican devices for
making people rich, the more the
farmer must depend upon providence
and the chances OF foreign famines or
foreign wars for a fair price for
his products. But maybe when Harri-
son closes up those commercial treaties
with Venezuela and Mexico it will be
different. Benjamin IS laborinG like

WHAT TENAs NEEDS MONEY FOR.

Texas wants more factories; she
wants more mining industries; she
wants more railroads; she wants more
wholesale business. How are these
TO be got without money? Texas has
not got the money. She is like every
new and undeveloped country, every
beginner. She lacks capital. Supply
her with that at a reasonable discount
and she will so use it as to develop
her mines, establish factories, build
railroads and extend and diversity her
commerce and her industries.
Texas must do something besides
raising cotton and breeding long-horn
cattle. The semi-civilized rancheros
OF the Argentine Republic can beat her
at the latter, and the world is full OF
cotton. Other and more gainful occu-

Editor Gazette
In your reply TO c. in THE GAZETTE Of the
9TH inst. are several statements that, to my
mind would not stand upon an inveSti2d
ton: but in view of the fact that you kindly
published an article OF mine recently, ] will
only refer to one st element. aud that is
that The government stamp,of the United
States of America isn't worth cent in
addin" to the value OF cCin.' Now. if |
understand Alright, the government takes
about say about, Tor the price of silver
varies-11 cents worth of silver and makes
100 cents. adding about % cents by its
stamp. 1t also takes about 20 cents worth
of copper and makes 100 cents of money out
of it. adding $40 cents in value to it by its
stamp. Again it takes about 20 cents worth
o. copper and nickel and makes 800 cents of
it by its stamp, adding 430 cents or 81. 30 to
its value
will close by asking The GAZETTE and
the world question:
If the government can take - cents worth
of material ana make 100 cents, 20 cents
worth and make 100 cents, and 80 cents
worth and make 800 cents, why can it not
take 1 cents worth and make $1,000 Re
