The Texas farmer has the grand
est possibilities of his craft before
him. In no other state are the
agricultural conditions so favor
able, but he needs brains and good
Judgment in deciding how, when,
where and what to plant. The
wise farmer does not plant his
beans all out of the same bag.

The general dissatisfaction of the
country with the great political
parties is at the bottom of every
political vagray that has secured a
hold upon the people. 1t is not
love for the new or confidence in it,
that creates new parties, but
a profound distrust of the old,
and that distrust is abundantly
justified.

Tom Reed demonstrates to DEM
Ocratic disgruntlement that he is
not a reed shaken by the wind of
anti-Republican opinion. He is a
thOsn in the side of Tucker and
Crisp that they will remember.
Bradstreets have a high opinion
of Texas as the result of the re-
ports upon her trade and finances.
And the country through Brad
streets have decided that there is
nothing like tin and Texas.
There will be little full time
labor and full wages in the Ameri-
can factories until the tariff dis
cussiOn is over, and not then if
American industries are sacrificed
to Democratic hostility.
If the testimony before the city
cOnncil does not show that these
garbage furnaces cannot do the
business required of them under
the contract, what amount Of evil
dence will be required?
The spectacle of the national
chamber turned into a petty court
in which members plead for their
own bread and butter at the eX-
pense of the whole country, is in
deed a pitiful one.
So long as the Democrats insist
that a man is not present in the
House until he answers to his
name, just so long is Reed destined
to have no end of fun with his po-
litical opponents.
1t seems incredible that this gov
eminent should lack the backbone
to stick to its legal conclusion in
the matter of Chinese exclusion.
America has everything to gain by
such exclusion.
Voorhees, undertook a bigger job

THE WATER WORKS QUESTION.
Several Citizens Favor the Town Max
ing a Proposition,

Since the water election was de-
clared off" the question has been
freely discussed by citizens who were
both favorable and opposed to the
proposed proposition which was to
have been voted upon.
Among the many suggestions being
made, THE SENTINEL has heard of
none that appears to be more popular
than the one suggested by Alderman
ID. III. King. He says that he is heart
lily in favor of the town owning the
water works, provided it does not
have to pay too much for what it gets.
''My idea is," says Mr.. King, ''for
the town now to make the Water
Works Company proposition. Let
five or six good DISTINGUISHED citizens,
with an expert, be selected-these to
compose BOARD Of appraisers to eX
anime the property and say how much
TIE plant is worth.
Il am in favor of the city making
the purchase direct and think it
should pay every dollar the property
is worth. Wien this is done the city's
officials, Ithink, should have full con-
troll of the plant. / have long since
realized the fact that the town must
necessarily have more water. How
ever, we want that increase to be
good 1t should also be made accessi-
bic to citizens in all parts of the CITY,"

Hats for Little GIRLS.

Hats with wide brirs and low
crowns are universally worn by little
girls this season. They are trimmed
profusely with wild flowers, and the
effect is exceedingly bright and
pretty. The wreath effect IN flowers
is used instead of punches, and q
pert bow of satin ribbon is all that
is used with the flowers.
A very pretty hat seen on little
darkhaired maid of seven summers
was wide brimmed red straw.
Around the CT own in pretty confusion
were strewn bright yellow butter
cups, ragged sailors, daisies and a
few green leaves. A smart bow of
red satin ribbon was placed on the
crown and completed the trimming
of a very attractive hat. The COM
bination of the gay wild flowers on
the bright red straw was very effec-
tive.

INSURANCE RATES
They are Discussed In the Chamber of
Commerce.

Commerce.
A special meeting of the Chamber
Of Commerce was held Thursday night.
The principal matter was the consid-
Grafton of insurance rates, regarding
which Special Agent Chatterly made
an interesting and instructive talk on
Insurance matters. He said that
Winston had not been singled out by
the insurance companies; there was
no desire to Cypress this or any other
city. Tobacco rates will be increased
all over the South, he said. 1t is now
proposed to put the three-quarter
clause in almost all the cities of the
South. and the iron-safe clause where
mercantile stocks are written. The
latter clause is necessary for adjust
ing losses, for if the books are also
burnt. it is next to impossible to adj
just properly.
In regard to the Hanes fire he said
that on his last visit he remarked
that it was only a question of time
when the frame building would burn
the factory. But the factory would
have escaped had standard iron shut
tiers been provided at windows and
other opening. 1t seemed to him that
the fire department ought to have
kept the fire out of the factory. If
there had been iron shutters it would
have been kept out. 1t was mistake
that nearly all the factories and prize
houses had no protection at the win
dOws. He wondered that the city had
not had that menacing frame build
ing condemned and removed; thought
it was the duty of the town to take
action.
Before adjournment Mr.. Lindsay
Patterson made some remarks on the
silver question and his resolution re-
questing our Senators and Representa-
tives in Congress to vote for the re-
peal of the Sherman law was unani-
mouSly carried.

NINE CoNvICTs KILLED
BY Guards Who Had Been Fired Upon
by the Escapes.

CAIRO, ILL.,, June 12.-Fifty convicts,
while returning from the quarries to
the prison near the city, overpowered
the mounted guards and tried to es-
cape. They constituted the last squad
of a gang of six hundred and the
guards ahead did not know Of the
mutiny until the men had captured
the rifles of the rear guards. AS the
fifty convicts fled, eleven of the adj
vance guards started in pursuit. The
twenty-five guards left with the 9TH
er convicts kept them quiet by firing
repeatedly over their heads. Half a
mile from the spot where the mutiny
broke out, the eleven guards overlook
the fugitives and ordered them to sur
render. The convicts who had arms
answered with a volley, which wound
ed two men and killed the horses.
The return yolley of the guards killed
thirty-nine conyicts- Eleven con-
victs escaped.

ANOTHER GREAT HORROR.
A Tenement House in New York, Filled
With WOrkmel, Burned.
THREE PERSONS INSTANTLY KILLED

And a Number of Others Injured
livery Floor of the Building Occu-
pied by Tailoring Establishments
in Which Three Hundred People
Were Employed.
NEW YORK, June 13.-There was a
scene of the widest excitement this
morning when it became known that
the old tenement house on Montgom-
cry street was on fire. Every floor of
the house was occupied with tailoring
Establishments, in which some three
hundred .men, women and children
were employed, and when the Ialarm
was given that the building was on
fire the scene cot panic beggars de-
ription. The operatives rushed to
every avenue of exit, and when these
became crowded they took to the win
dowS and the fire escapes. A few be-
came so craZed with fright that they
leaped from the windows and were
mangled upon the streets below.
Ghe building was an old wooden
structure and burned fiercely. 1t is
estimated that twenty thousand peO-
pie filed the streets surrounding it,
and all the police reserves had to be
called into service to preserve order
and keep the crowd out of the way of
the firemen.
1t is thought now that fully twenty
bodies have persisted in the flames,
while the number of injured cannot
be estimated with any degree of accu-
racy.
In the basement of the building was
a livery stable in which number Of
horses were burned.
LATER-In the confusion conse-
quent upon so great a fire, the num-
Der of casualties was greatly eXag-
gerated in the the first reports sent
out. 1t is now ascertained that only
three persons were killed outright and
but ten more or less injured.

COURT HOUSE SQUARE.
Can It Be Sold ?-There is a Diyersit.
OfOpinion.

Can the courthouse square be sold?
That is I'd question about which
there is a diversity of opinion.
The business men owning property
around the square are bitterly opposed
to the sale and will enter their pro-
test against it if such action is at
tempted by the County Commission
ers and Magistrates.
Many are of the opinion that the
present courthouse site was given to
the county with the understanding
that it should always be used for pub
lie purposes.
1t appears that there would be no
objection to the sale were the square
sold to the United States government
for public building-or left vacant
as public square-but if an attempt
is made to dispose of the property for
any other purpose there will be hard
s'kicking," and If possible the sale
will be declared unlawful.
