known since the settlement of the
county, and the crops keeping pace

at the Catholic church, and her re-
mains were inferred in the Catholic
cemetery.

there was evidence enough to convict
Harpole, recommended u jury trial,
which was called to convene at s

appears that on or about May 25th,

worked away from the main prison, or
rather sub-eased. 1t Will be re
membered that Attorney General Pickel
in an elaborate opinion held that
the convicts could not be sub
leased. Nothing came up before the legis-
lature, however, and the question goes TO
court. William Warren, white convict in
the barracks at Briceville has, through his
attorney, filed petition in the Knox
county criminal court before Judge Sneed,
praying q writ of habeas corpus. The writ
was granted and addressed to the warden
at Briceville who is called on tc show cause
why he should not surrender the prisoner
The writ is made returnable next Wednes-
day. This brings the whole question be-
fore the court, is far reaching and exhauS-
tive. The object is to determine the legal
ity of the suitcase, and if it be
decided that convicts cannot be suo-let
then all the convicts must be taken from
those places where they are now working
on sub-contracts. This would move them
from Briceville and Coal Creek. If the pc
tition for habeas corpus is favorably acted
upon, it is understood that the lesseeS will
take the case TO the supreme court Of the
state, which is now in session.

AN OPEN LETTER
To the Farmers of Wichita, Archer and
CLAY Counties, Tex.

GESTLEMEN-Do you consider it right
and just that large land owners (many of
whom are non-residents), owning from four
thousand to sixty thousand acres, be IA
vored by having their land assessed at from
So to 81 and S4.JO per acre-an average of
not over $4-while your land is assessed ut
from S. to Sl2 per acre-an average of $40
per acre,
This policy, or more properly speaking,
DISCRIMINATION. virtually FINES or imposes
a PENALTY on the man who improves his
land and the country in general.
1t occurs to me that this policy should be
reversed. or at least the man who makes
improvements and assists in developing
anu building up the country and towns
should not be FINED for so doing.
If favors are TO be shown at all it is my
humble opinion that the actual settler
should receive them, and not the man who
profits by his work.
think you viii at least agree with me in
saying that the large (unmprovcd) land
Cwner should not be treated better than
others.
1t lies with the farmers and towns people
of the counties above-named to regulate this
matter.
If this discrimination in favor of a few
wealthy non-reSidents and others owning
large bodies OF land is continued it will be
the fault of the people. for they certainly
have it i'll their power to demand justice.
Respectfully submitted for your consid-
Grafton by yours truly, JOHN HOWARD.
Wichita Falls Tex, Sept. %, 1891.
P. S.-By taxing the large landowner as
they do the small farmer and the man who
erects improvements in town and by OPEN
ing up tirst-class lands mo gates) through
the larger pastures in Wichita, Archer and
Clay counties, the population and wealth of
these counties and that of the towns of
Wichita Falls, Henrietta, Archer City and
Iowa Park would. l believe, soon be
doubled. Be this as it may, tits but right
that large landowners should pay their
proportion of the expense of public i'm
provements, maintain county officers. etc.
