THE late rains in the cotton belt
of Texas have been greatly bene-
fetal to the crop, and there is no
longer any reason to fear that the
cotton crop Of the state will be ma
terially cut short. The corn and
other forage crops are unusually
good, and with abundant rains
during August there will be plenty
of feed for those who want to send
fat cattle to market. Texas is no
longer under the necessity of send
ing lean cattle and razor-back hogs
to market. Let her judiciously i'm
prove her breeds and send her cat
tie, hogs, and sheep to market as
fat as that market demands, and
she will coin money in the opera
ton.

San Antonio has a nine that can
play ball with any company that

there should be no delay in fitting
up for them ball ground upon
which it is possible to play good
ball. The grounds near the San
Pedro springs are in horrible con-
dition, and it is as much as field

THE STATE MILITIA.

GENERAL MABRY is of the Opin-
ion that something in the way
of a competitive drill would great
ly intensity the interest at the
state camp. lie has under cOnsid-
Grafton the arrangement of such a
program as will meet the case.
This can be very readily done by
arranging for a competitive drill
among the several companies of
the different regiments, on the
camp ground, to determine which
company in each regiment should
enter the lists for the prize to be
awarded for the best drilled COM
pany. This would cOnfine the
competing companies to one each
for each regiment, and give the
contest regimentdl character that
would go far to intensity the friend
ly rivalry between the regiments.
The regimental candidate for hon.
Ors being thus selected the COM
petitiVe drill that would follow
would invest the whole contest
with an interest involving the en-
tire camp. y prize worth contend
ing for should be offered by the
state and the interest of every COM
pany in the state would be assured.
This would be a marked improve
ment on the present conditions.
The camp that has just closed
was conspicuous for the absence of
the best men of the crack COM
panies. The Houston Light Guard
and the Belknap Rifles and the
Sealy Rifles did not send to Aus
tin their best men, and on inSpec-
ton these crack companies were
the most unsOldierly in appear
ance of any on the grounds. The
only reason for this condition of
things is to be found in the fact
that there was nothing in the
camp program to enlist in
terest and command the presence
OF the real soldiers of these
companies and they stayed at
home, sending in their places any
one who would act as a substitute
An effective state militia cannot be
built up and educated in this way
and it is of the first importance
that the state itself takes such in
terest in the camp drill, and pro
vides such inducements for the at
tendance and best efforts of every
organized militia company in tn,
state, and all regimental organiza
lions as well, as will insure tina
every volunteer in the state put
his best foot foremost, on every oc
casion, while in the state camp. S,
long as the state itself is so mig
gardiy in making provision for tn
encampment it is not possible tina
