Mr.. J. H. Kruth is president of the An
gelina county lumber company, which is
very large institution with extensive oper-
alton. Meeting him in one of the hotels
What-Not asked him what was going on in
Angelina county. He said. ''WelI | am
sorry to say it, but our county is rather
dull now However, we expect that the iron
DEVELOPMENTS at New Birmingham may
enliven matters little. Speaking of New
Birmingham. l understand that the fur
mace will begin operations there on the
10Th OF this month. Another furnace is
also being erected between New Birming
ham and Rusl and the prospect IS prom
ising. There is undoubtedly good ore in
the vicinity, and I expect that they will
eventually discover coal, as the country is
q solid bed Of Ignite. 4 good many years
ago Mir. Aosse made geological eXamina-
ton of the Trinity river in search Of coal;
but his researches were without reward,
except that he reported the discovery of .
small vein OF coal in Cherokee county.
This has led me to believe that ultimately
coal will be found in sufficient quantities
to meet the demand. However, there is q
vast amount of timber around New Biz
mngham which will afford an ineXhausti-
blesupnly of charcoal. and money and brains
will develop the industry. II the enterprise
succeeds in New Birmingham, it will re-
suit in great benefit to our county. as there
are vast beds of ore in the county that are
as rich as the ore in Cherokee county. Our
people are anxious to see this ore developed
and there is 4 large profit in it for enter
prising men with money"
What Not-"What do you East Texas
people think about NJ. Gerald's bill asking
for an investigation of the International
and Great Northern receivershipl''
Mr.. Kurth-"There has been a silent ru-
NOR surreptitiously floating around East
Texas that there was something wrong
with the receiyership, but l do not think it
amounts to anything. It is true that stir
was recently raised about some rebates and
other matters, and after Mr.. Eddy's death
Col Bonner may have made few mistakes,
due from lack Of knowledge of the bust
ness. but l am certain that he has been

Judge McCord is concerned. he is regarded

any man could. No one impugns his integ-

PUTTING ACID ON THE RAW PLACES

l =
The North American Review prints
an article from the pen of Sidney Dill
lon, president Of the Union Pacific rail
way. wherein he combats the growing
antagonism TO railroads, and alleges
reasons to show its injustice. If Mr..
Dillon took up his pen with a thought
that he would say something to subdue
the popular feeling toward the rail
roads, or more precisely speaking, to-
ward the railroad arrangements, he
should have laid it down again before
dipping it in ink, for his insistence
upon certain contended for rights is
more exasperating than modifying.
"a citizen, simply as citizen" says
Mr.. Dillon, commits an impertinence
when he questions the right OF any cor
poration to capitalize its properties at
any sum whatever" But he will find
st hard to make the people agree with
him, and as they have the power they
are not likely to stop at this imperti-
renca they viii go further, and grow
SO insolent as not only to question that
right, but to raise means Of restraining
it in the future. In q contest between
the railroads and the millions over a
question Of rights aud impertinence.
the millions are likely to say what is
lighU and what is impertinent accord
ing TO their way OF thinking. We
do not say their settlement Of the mat
ter will be exactly just and proper, but
they will settle il.
The truth is that there is TO some eX-
tent strained relation between the
public and the railroads that should not
exist. This is owing in great part to
the ignorance Of the people, but in still
greater part to the contempt which
railroad managers show for that ig-
norance. Such a feeling eff contempt
runs down from the president TO the
newsboy, and it is not concealed.
Naturally the 'iguoramuses" resent
such treatment, and as long as they
have the power to retaliate they are
not backward in using it. So the peo-
pie and the railroads stay apart and
abuse each other, when by getting to-
gether, and each understanding the
needs of the other, more kindly feel
ing would grow up, leading to mutual
respect and forbearance.
Mr. billions writings will not help to
reconcile the inharmonious forces. II
may be a mistake for the people to
think that they ought to have some
thing to say about the excessive cap
italization OF railroad companies, but
they will not be convinced of that mis-
take by telling them that it is an i'm
pertinence for them to think so. They
are more likely to put their thoughts
in acts, and say that there shall not be
fictitious capitalization.

Of Texas. He replied: You have great

frequent murders occurring in the state
have bad effect on Northern people.
For Instance, previous to my departure
from Missouri | requested q friend OF
mine to accompany me to Texas with
view of locating. He was restless and
uneasy about Missouri and desired to move
TO some other more enterpriSing state;

there are thousands Of dissatisfied people
in Missouri who are anxious to seek new

their eye on the Panhandle OF Texas, but
they hold back for fear Texas is inhabited
by lawless men who live by theft, plumber
and murder. Every time homicide occurs
in Texas il is paraded through the GLOBE

r. l., Robertson, whilom of Tyler, but
now a member Of the firm of Mitchell s
Robertson of Ardmore, l. T., was seen by
W haJ-NOL yesterdLy and found TO Dc hlgLly
delighted with the Indian Territory.
Speaking Of the Territory. he said: We
have two elements-the progressive Gle
ment and the pull-DacGs-in the Territory.
The progressive element Is composed mostly
of the Americans W!lO are not citizens, ami
the pull-Dacks are the full-blCOded Indians.
The progressive men are IN favor OF the
allotment of the lands TO Indians and State
hood Under Mr.. Spriu@er's bill the plan
is to give each indian 200 acres Of land, and
after the lands are divided the residue Will
be divided between the Indians. There are
$500 Indians in the Territory, and this bill,
after giving each Indian 200 acres Of land,
Will leave quite Il handsome remainder.
This remainder the Indians will be per
mitted to sell, but they are prevented from
selling the 200 acres until the expiration of
twar.y-one years. Thee Territory will be
opered to settlement and Americans can
acquire tile, ENJOY suffrage, etc. How
over, the town sizes viii be exempted from
this act and can be located as soon as the
| Territory becomes state"
-NOL-"Do the citizens of Ardmore
own their l0tS!'
MI Robertson-"O no. They have
leased from he Indians for term Of years.
Bat, when the leases expire The Indians
Wal be coIapa!lcd TO pay dollar 10" dollar on
the improvements erected. Recently cur
town was greatly excited over a suit
brought by an Indian named Richard Me
Itsh TO recover the land upon which Ard
more IS located. Nici.ish secured judgment
IN the Indian court (where there is no Sc
crat made Of always awarding judgment TO
the rich Indian, wha her he has just
cause or not) and our people appealed to the
Federal court en- the grounds oI \ lack of
Jurisdiction on the part OF the Indian court.
The Federal court reversed the case and
the title 10 the land IS now removed"
Nhat-Not-''When the Territory is re-
Calvel INTO he SIS -erhJOj, wait Z lGct VIII
il have on the titles TO the town lots of Ard
more?'
Mr. Robertson-"I suppose that the citi
zens will simply claim title by location,
and, if they have improvements upon their
| lots. they will be entitled to the title"
What Motif the progressive element
| is composed of men who cannot vote, how
| do you expect to VIM
Mr.. Robertson-"We are now arranging
for great campaign this summer. Our
speakers will be at every picnic and every
| effort will be made to educate the Indian
voters and induce them to join our element.
! 1t may take US some time to manipulate the
matter in such q manner as to secure state
hood but we are now making many con-
verts. The poor Indians now have no
chance of an honest arbitration in the In
dian courts, and it will not be so hard to
convert them as you imagine. When they
sue for Justice the rich suborn the courts
and make the trial a farce, and they are
getting tired of such institutions and will
be easily persuaded to join u.s."

A SWEET SUBJECT.
A Washington Letter Creates a
Furry In Sugar Circles.
THE EFFECT OF THE NEW LAW.
Some of Texas Prominent Planters to Go
to the National Capital in the Hope
of Obtaining a More Favor
able Construction.
Special TO the Gazette.


HousToN, Ten, April "A very i'm
portant communication has been reteived
by prominent planter in Houston from
the in er"rl revenue department at Wash
ingtOn. The contents of the note could
not be ascertained, but from a gentle
man who is largely interos ed in sugar
matters it WAS learned that the
communication dwelt to some extent upon
The workings of the new law giving Il
bounty Of , cents per pound on all sugars of
a certain grade manufactured in the United
States. This law went into effect April /
and is scarcely three days old.
The startling feature of the let
ter Is III the statement that
the planters viii be unable. under certain
construction of the law, to recover the
bounty Of cents per pound if they manu-
facture what is known as seconds.
Although GAZETTE reporter attempted
10 ascertain the full force of this construc-
ton of the new law, as well as
a copy of the letter referred
to, he was unsuccessful Very few
planters in Houston had seen the commu-
nication, and those who had read it refused
to talk. One gentleman, however. said that
Inc su~ar trust no doubt ha1 cOnri~H3
at the new Law and would
De e.lOled, under The ,oIStrUc Iii
placed upon it by the internal revenue de-
partment, TO be master Of the situation,
WI IN lie Planters TO large extent at the
mercy of the trust. The gentleman did
not wish to have his name mentioned, but
continued: If this construction
or interpretation of the new
law should not be changed
or modified it will have the effect of pre-
venting the planters from making SUGAR
from seconds, which is the only product
they have to enter into direct competition
with the trust; also by leaving the trust in
control Of the su"ar business of the
country and giving it the power to
largely regulate prices. it can dictate the
price 20 BE- paid the planter for seconds.
and the price at which it will sell the re-
fined sugiar 10 the consumer. With this
double baIBelled advantage the trust ought
20 make a good Thing out of it,
Its believed, however that the construction
which the internal revenue department has
placed upon the new law can be modified.
and the planters will be given an equal
chance to make sugar from the seconds and
obtain bounty on the same as it was orig
inally supposed they would. However, there
was considerable discussion going on in
sugar circles yesterday regarding the letter
received from Washington, and ii is re
ported some of the most prominent planters
of the state will go to the national capital
in hopes of obtaining more favorable con-
Struction of the new law by the depart
ment. To one South Texas planter alone
the bounty means $4,000 per annum.

4 THING WE ",lusT. Do.

when the American minister at Rome
explained TO the Italian secretary Of
foreign affairs the relations subsisting
between our Federal and state govern
meuts. showing that the Federal au-
thorities had no power to punish the
New Orleans rioters. the Italian broke
out: We have nothing to do with

that is no constitution worthy OF free
and civilized country"

ty, and the people are Of the opinion that

rity, and the people are Of the opinion that
there is some motive beneath tbs
investigation. To men who live
away from Tyler, it has been amusing to
watch the struggle over this receivership.
There have been some fat jobs in the APP
pointmentS. and hard struggles have been
ma ie to catch bi of the plum ;-and it has
seemed, to The outside public, that this re-
Ownership has lasted a long time 1t has
been great boom for TYLER, rs Col. Bon
ner's bank was the deposi Dry for both the
Cotton Belt and International and Great
Northern ROADS. These two recefverships
pulled into Tyler an average OF S2JO.OO0 per
month, and it was deposited in Col Bon
ner's bank which, it is s atad. has trans
acted more business for the last two years
than any bank in the state. Taking cogiii-
Zance Of the fact that Col BonnerS oank is
private bank. this is very remarkable and
shows that the receivership has been re-
munerative to Col. Bonner. Outside of this
and the fact that some very large salaries
have been aid the receivers, attorneys and
employees. l do not think that any eXtrava-
gance or malfeasance has marked the pro-
ceedingS, and I am satisfied that legisla-
tive committee will find nothing to investi-
gate. The committee may h2rass these
gentlemen by Paul Pry investigation, but
il will not rebound to the discredit of the
receivers
What-Not-''What do you think of Re
ceiver CampbelI's move in discharging Mr..
Herndon}
Mr. Kurth-"I understand that he also
discharged Judge Duncan. associate attor-
ney, and Mr.. L. \. Jones, claim agent, and
that Col. Bonner refused to ratify the act.
I know this much and no more; but there
may be large sized colored citizen liuger-
ing cautiously around this Wood pile. How
ever do not think any of the gentlemen
discharged by Mr. Campbell We're guilty of
4 wrong act, and suppose that is simply
disagreement between the receivers. which
can be adiudicated by the court without the
pernicious inquisition of an investigating
committee"
