BREWERY RATES.
COMMISSIONER FOSTER HAS
SOMETHING TO SAY
HAS
In Regard to the Matter--If the Rate has
Been Raised it is in Violation OF
the Commission Law.

Hon. L L. Foster, state railroad COM
missioner, who passed Saturday night in
the city, left for Colorado city yesterday
morning. His attention was called to the
interviews with the brewery people in the
Evening Mail of Saturday. and he was
asked for explanation Of the cause OF
increase in the tariff votes given to the
brewery:
If there has been any increase Of rates, :"
said he, "either upon their product or upon
empty kegs returned, it has been in viola.
ton of law, and the roads are liable to
heavy penalties for it. Their rates are, or
should be, the same as existed when
the commission law went into
effect. The commission has not yet
touched rates on merchandise, having first
directed its attention to the leading articles
OF Texas production, such as cotton, grain
and lumber. The law provides that the
pre-existing rates shall be the controlling
rates until changed by the com.
mission, in order to prevent the
roads from answering reduction
on one commodity by an increase in the
rate on another not listed in the commits
sion's schedule.
Whatever complaint the brewery may
have is against the rates made by the loads
themselves, not against commission rates,
for we have made none applying to them.
while we have not yet been able to deal
with the question of merchandise, we adj
vised the brewery that any application by
the roads for reduction Of rates would be-
promptly granted. No such application has
been made. That settles the question Of
the good faith of the roads in representing
that they were anxious to reduce the brew
erV rates

the expenses of the called session Of the
legislature, the state viii pay of the bonds
issued in 1871 under the Republican admin
istration, and have money left in the treas.
ury. There are many other things of inter-
est to the people that l shall tell them.
For more than year my administration
has been under the reckless. indiscriminate,
unceasing fusilade and criticism OF the op-
position; charged with all the ills of the
Federal government; with the financial
stringency affecting all Europe and Amer.
lea, and with the low price of cotton which
prevails in every cotton growing state. ]
have gone along attending to my public
duties without complaint, and have none
now to make, Had the railroad lobbyists,
who are responsible for these stories,
praised my work, I should have stopped
long enough to find out if I had done any
thing wrong. have no defense to make,
but will discuss questions on which the
public should be thoroughly informed.
"Ihave an abiding faith in the intelligence
and Judgment of the people of Texas and
believe they will take care of the commits
sion after its work has been fully laid be-
fore them in the campaign, and that they
will not be misled by the represents
tions, tricks and devices of its enemies.

Erred AT DUBLIN, TEX.
ated by Prominent Capital
ists-Other Notes.


DUBLIN, TEX, Feb 2S.-While digging a
well recently on his premises L NJ. Newton,
who lives in the southern portion of town,
4 large lump of hard substance was found.
It was not 4 rock, that was evident. Upon
examination it proved to be an immense
lump of silver. OF course this discovery
very naturally led to other more careful
Investigations. The services of an expert
were procured, and after a thor
ough examination of this spot
he pronounced the hard looking substance
as above stated. 1t also revealed the fact
to the astonished natives that other min
erals-gold, lead, copper, etc.,-were lying
just under the surface of the earth in I'M
minerals found on this particular spot, but
all around Dublin. In fact the hills are
just full of the precious metal. MIR. Smith,
an experienced miner, has been here during
the past few days. He is trying to secure
the mineral deed to several hundred acres
of land in and around Dublin. If it is given
him he intends putting in smelteripg works
and will have 500 men at work on the mines
within six months time.
1t is not known yet whether or not
he viii be successful
Our people do not seem to grasp the i'm
mensity OF having gold and silver mines in
their midst, or more interest would be
taken in the matter.
Some cotton sold here last week.
1t is generally conceded that this people
do not want Hogg for another term.
Between twenty and thirty thousand
bales of cotton have been compressed here
this season.
Work has been resumed on the water
works, and we Will soon have one of the
best systems ~ the state.

On the Train to Sing Sing.

Nearly every train that goes to Sing Sing
weekdays bears at least one utterly sad-looking
woman, says the New York Times. She is as a
rule, neatly but poorly dressed. She takes the
long walk, and dreary one it must be. to the
prison. The lovely view across the Hudson she
cannot see for the gathering tears in her eyes.
But the ugly gray stone prison is distinct
enough, Down the hong steps she descends to
the Office, whore big man in blue treats her
kindly enough and gives her a seat on one of the
three hard benches. Il Is hardly necessary to
consult the books TO find If the rules allow her
to see the prisoner she asks for. These heart
broken women keep sure count of the days and
every two months finds them waiting patiently
for the husband or the son TO come in in his
hated stripes. The meeting is almost without
exception very, very quiet. The convict is
shame-faced and nervous, but determined not
to show his feelings or break down as he sits
there talking in low voice, twidding his ugly
cap The woman struggles bravely to keep
back her tears, but she cannot restrain the sobs
that again and again convulse her frame.
Then 1t is Time up and the tears break out
at the parting. One can nowhere else fnd so
utterly pathetic and hopeless sight, yet 1t is a
daily occurrence at Sing Sing.
