A Practical Test.

A new crowd has taken possession
of tn Hale & Norcross. 1t Wal
claimed III he Fox suit that the mine
could easily be paying dividends il
honestly managed.
| A very good practical test can now
be made of the truth or falsity OF
this assertion, by the new manage
ment If this mine pays div dends
it will show that the past manage
ment has been bad, and if the lesson
taught the Norcroas managers can be
instlled into the heads of some of
the other companies, the suit will
not have been brought in vain.
For years the Comsto X has been
worked for q few insiders, and the
public has ceased to look to the mines
as good investment.
The trouble all arises from the fact
that sto kholders in mines as not
allowed to Inspect their own property
or even make any inquiries about it,
as stockholders in other properties
are allowed to do.
The next Legislature should take
hold of the matter and see that in
vestors arc not at the mercy of
schemers.
Unless this reform is speedily &C
complished the future of the State
becomes matter of very serious
consideration.

Retura Of the Searching Party.

The Austin Advocate has the fol
lowing: The searching party that
went out to solve the problem of
Bsauman's disappearance have re-
turned. They report finding his
watch, clothes and some money
about eighty yards from the saddle
and blanket. 1t appears that the
saddle was found about six or ssven
miles from his ranch instead Of II
miles from here as reported. The
superstition now il that his horse
gave out, and that he turned him
loose and tried to walk to the place
and persisted, the snow being about
three feet deep on lsvel at the
time. The coyotes, no doubt did the
rest.

BAD PRACTICE.

The citizens of Roanoke are kicking,
and justly, too, in regard to the con-
dition Of many of the streets hero. The
contractor commences work on them
and after rendering them impossible
and roping them off, withdraws his
force and commences to tear up some
other street.
This is altogether wrong, and the
authorities should see that the streets
are finished as soon as possible. 1t is a
great inconvenience to many people
to have some of these streets roped off,
they oftentimes being compelled to
go several blocks out of their way. The
board of public works, or Council, should
look into this matter at once.

ments use up guns and ammunition to
the value of $3.50, 900.
THE cartridges of Germany, Austria
and Belgium have groove at the end
instead Of an enlargement at the base,
the advantage of which is that the
cartridge is packed more easily.
THE 15-inch aerial torpedo thrower,

Cleveland Makes An Explnnation

Especial = Cleveland tonight was
shown his published letter of July 81,
written to Mrs. E. X. White, niece OF
d. Clay King. which has caused no lit.
tie comment. The letter was a per.
sonal one and Cleveland was very much
surprised TO find that it was being pub.
lished broadcast and that it had been
filed, among other documents, with
Gov Buchanan. Cleveland does not
deny writing the letter. The letter re-.
ceived was very pathetic one and Ger.
tainly deserved an answer. Cleveland
reiterates his statement that hs fought
MOTTO interfere by applying to the gov.
ernor for mitigation Of the sentence. y
Mrs. Whites letter, which stated the
physical condition of her uncle and
other circumstances, led Cleveland tc
tender his sympathy for her with tn.
earnest hope that an execution of the
death sentence might be avoided.

ARRESTING CARA.

Whenever affairs grow dull along the
Rio Grsnde the public is informed that
Catarino CARA will be arrested in
twenty-four hours. The fact that the
announcement has been made q mum Der
of times already, and that Catarino
CARA has not been apprehended doesn't
appear to dampen the ardor of these
enthusiasts They have a firm belief
in the existence of Cara, and just as
firm belief that he is fool, and will
allow himself to be caught whenever
they are ready to capture him. There
may be such person as Cara, though
the will-o'. thewisp character OF his
movements tempts one to be skeptical;
but If there is such person, he is much
too keen to suffer himself to be corralled
like Texas steer by his enemies on the
border.
CARA. whether he is mythical or
actual person, stands for an idea, and
'that is inexorable hostility to Diaz;
and the friends of the Mexican presi-
dent can no more suppress that idea
than they can chain the lightning or
bottle up the winds. The reaction has
set in against the tyranny of Diaz, and
1t will swell until his overthrow is &C.
complished. 1t is safe to say that he
has never been fairly elected president
OF Mexico, and all the recent so called
elections have been the veriest farces.
Wherever there has been the slign test
opposition soldiers have unceremon-
iously quelled it by methods which, If
pursued in this country, would have
Immediately precipited revolution.
To say that he has governed wisely is
not to the purpose. The man who has
no right to govern at all cannot govern
wisely, because he must maintain him {.
self by force or fraud, and thus break
down the guarantees of the constitution
He has undoubtedly done very much to
develop the resources and increase the
prosperity Of his country, but in doing
80 he has saddled the government with
q debt which it cannot pay, and which
must hasten his downfall Reaction of
the kind that is now going on in Mexico
cannot be arrested. It's development
may be slow, but eventually the pres.
emit government will be overthrown, and
one chosen that will pay some respect to
the liberties of the people.
