There Will be no Strike.

Speaking about the sensational article

ring to threatened strike on the Arkansas

who is thoroughly posted and knows what
he is talking about, said this morning to

that there is any probability of another
strike on the Arkansas Pass road is all
'bosh. Two different organizations Of rail-
way employees, the Order of Railway Con-
ductors and the Order of Railway Brake
men, are both asking for modification of
existing rules, which, If granted, would
place both organizations in conflict with
each other, and on this account the man
asement of the road has declined to take
any action until the two orders come to
an agreement and present joint petition
for modification that will not be preju-
dicial to either"

Tumbled From the Train.

Among the passengers on the S
a. p. train from Houston was
Beaugard ChOate, who got on at
Runge at which place he had q
saloon. He had occasion to pass
from one coach to another between
ElmendOrf station and Berg's Mill
in which vicinity he was missed
by his fellow passengers, they
could not find him on the train.
They reported the matter to the
conductor and when the train
reached San Antonio a searching
party was sent out and found
ChOate near ElmendOrf lying near
the track badly hurt. The train, as
he was crossing between the cars,
had given sudden jerk and he
had fallen from it and one of his
feet had fallen on the rail. The car
wheels had passed over and cut off
his toes and he was unable to
move. He was taken to Elmendorf
and brought from there here this
morning for medical treatment.

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying.

The people are beginning TO realize that
they have good sized elephant on hand
in the shape OF the new county court
house, and that the elephant is tramping
on the peoples pocket book.
Judge CaIlaghan has thrown himself in
the path of the elephant and what the
consequences will be remains to be seen
In his refusal to sign warrants for the
services of an extra superintendent he has
met with a tap from the elephants trunk,
but still holds his position until the sup
RENE court reviews the case.
1t begins to dawn upon the public I'M
Outstanding that this building may cost,
before finished, close to million dollars,
and in order TO pay this the taxpayers
will have to put their hands into their
pockets for the next twenty years.
But the prospect is that, unless the
building contracts are curtailed and
cheaped the building cannot be finished
put Will remain as monument to the
reckless management and incompetence
OF our county administration.
1t is understood that the limit of the
amount that the county can appropriate
for courthouse purposes has been nearly
reached and the adenda'S for Pecos sand
stone, and iron roof will more than reach
the limit.
Judge Callaghan will no doubt come in
conflict with the county commissioner
court upon the addendaS, and will forti-
fly himself on the grounds of excess of the
limit of bonds for courthouse purposes.
The great trouble seems to be that the
county commissioners court have been
unable to grasp the magnitude of their
undertaking, from the start.
The change of material from Null
doom stone to PecoS stone has
involved an extra cost OF some
$1,000: Judge Calaghan contends that
the Muldoon stone is superior in point of
hardness and durability, and equally as
slightly. He also contends that the change
Is favorable to the contractors because Of
the greater ease in working the Pecos
stone. In so important a matter this
question of stone should have been SUBJ
jected to the scrutiny of the very best ex-
perts, and scientific test.
There is no sense in the selection of a
material because it is of home production
unless 1t is superior to similar article at
tainable elsewhere.
But the serious part Of this whole bus
mess Is that the taxpayers Of this city
will be called on to bear this heavy bur
den for the erection of this new court
house at time when every cent thev
can spare will be needed to place our city
in good condition, and to carry out public
improvements that are imperativeiy de-
manded. Ike county commissioners do
not seem to have grasped the idea that
the city taxpayers have any interest in
their proceedings.
If 1t were possible to stop: this court
house folly right where it is for the next
ten years, it would be wise proceeding
and this give the taxpayers a chance to
put our city on its feet.
A system of sewerage should be started
and completed within the next two years,
This will require heavy drain upon our
credit. No further street improvements
should be undertaken until the sewerage
system is put down.
