SAN rnANo1sooy HORROR.

The murder of Miss Lamont and
Miss Williams ID San Francisco by a
fiend in human shape Is n OF the
most horrible ever brought to our no.
tice. Innocent girls, just budding
into womanhood, are enticed into n
building dedicated to the worship OF
God and then slain without mercy.
The lifeless body OF Miss Lamont
and the mutilated corpse OF Miss Will
liams should appeal to the law.abid-
ing element Of San Francisco in tones
so strong that once proof has been
secured to fasten the crime upon the
murderer, nothing could stay their
course until the fiend dangled at the
end OF arope from some friendly lamp
post.
Human ingenuity has never devised
any punishment adequate to this
crime. Taking the life Of the muir
derer OF these girls is wholly made
quate as a punishment. 1t is all,
however, that can be done, and the
fathers and brothers Of San Francis
co should see to it that it is done and
quickly.

4 Political Trick.

The Vermonters find no difficulty in
ascertrining how people vote under
the Australian law. Political leaders
having fixed n voter. give him. just
before lie enters the booth, Il sheet of
soft paper of the same size Of the
tire ballot and n hard pencil with
which to make his marks. Inside
the booth he lays the ballot on the
soft paper and any marks he may
make on the ballot with the pencil
show family on soft paper. A subse-
quent comparison of the latter proves
conclusively how the vote was cast.
and no provision of the law has been
Violated. Ii this is not an ingenious
method OF obtaining evidence that
-the goods have been Delivered what

DODDRIDGE.
A Rising Railroad City in
Sulphur Township.

The Texarkana & Shreveport
Railway is now running to Dod-
dridge, in Sulphur township, rs
miles south of Texarkana.
Already a depot has been con-
structed, and the town surveyed of
into business and residence lots and
there is not a particle of doubt as
to it becoming a commercial place
Of considerable Importance, Sui
phur township raises from six to
eight thousand bales of cotton, we
are told, and nearly all of it will be
marketed at this new railroad town.
This, together with other products
of the soil, fine timber lands, etc,
will insure its making a live town.
For some time to come Doddridge
will be the southern terminus Of the
Texarkana & Shreveport railroad.
Town is well located, on a high,
sandy plateau, four miles east of
Bright Star and three miles west OF
Spring Bank; Kelly bayou, near by,
will receive the drainage and olfaI
of the place.
Work of opening out the streets
will begin at once Opposite the
depot is "Foukc Place" a wide plat
of ground, upon which will front
the business houses, to be built at
first; then there are the following
avenues, running east and west;
Collins, SIay, Bryant, and others,
Several merchants are arranging
to locate there right away and ere
another two weeks elapse, a half
d zen or more new store houses will
be in course of construction, One
or more saw mills arc expected to
start up soon.
1t is estimated that not less than
1000 bales Of cotton will be brought
to the new town this fall,
Now is the time to get in on the
"ground floor" as lots are going
cheap, The first stores will reap a
rich harvest,
