The Adv-Martin Contest.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. December 29.-Sen-
ators Chandler and Hoar state that they in
tend to do all they can to bring up the
Ady- Martin senatorial contest case in the
senate and have it disposed of. Last session
they were promised that If the matter was
allowed to 60 over they would be given a
hearing this session. Now they claim that
it is about time that this agreement was be-
ing carried out
Some weeks ago they had an opportunity
to take 1t up, but at that time 1t was sug-
gested that its consideration at that time
would have something to do with the sena-
torial fight then on in Kansas and they were
prevailed upon to allow it to go over until
the case and will endeavor to get a report
from the committee during this week.

To Abalish Fees.

WASHINGTON, D. c., January 28.-A result
that has occurred from the investigation of
the charges against Judge Kicks, of Ohio,
seems to be that it has brought prominently
to the notice of congress the defects of the
fee system which applies to the officers Of
the United States court.
More or less scattering efforts have been
made in years past by both houses to do
away with the system of compensating dis
trict attorneys, marShals, clerks and COM
missioners by fees, which places a bounty
on prosecutions, and tendency of legisa-
ton has been to reduce and limit fees for
some time.
Several attorney generals, including Brew
ster, Miller and Oiney, have recommended
tOcOngress that the court officials be placed
as nearly as practicable on a salaried basis,
and several reports have been made to the
same effect by congr4 4ssional investigating
com n1itreas

Cleveland Endorsed.


WASHINGTON. D. c.. January 29.-The
senate adopted the following resolution by
a vote of "a to %:
Resolved, That while the people of the
United States earnestly sympathize with the
effort to esta blish republican institutions
wherever the effort is made, they re firm
the policy of non-lnterference unless by
agreement with the affairs of other nation :,
and recognize to the fullest extent the right
of every people to adopt and maintain their
own form of government unawed and uuiu-
fuenced by foreign dictation. Th the ad-
ministration of President Cleveland in
maintaining this policy as to our foreign re-
lations deserves the approval and support of
the American people,"
The vote was on party lines with the ex-
ception of Mr.. Pettigrew, republican, of
South D kota, who voted with the demo-
Gratis, but by singular coincidence this vote
carried the resolution. as it would have failed
on a tie had the vote been on strict party
lines

Mandamus Upon the Corporations

MandamuS Upon the Corporations.
BROOKLYN, January 26.-JL.-tice Gaynor,
of the supreme court handed down his de-
cislon on the application of Joseph Loader
for a mandamus to compel the Brooklyn
Heights railroad to operate its cars in suffi-
cient numb mbars to accommodate the public.
Justice Gaynor's decision is as follows:
'It is my duty to declare the law in this
case. This railroad corporation is not in
the position of mere private individual or
com pany carrying on business for private
gain which may suspend business Temporal
rily or permanently at pleasure. On the con-
trary it has dual relation; public re alton
to the people Of the state and private one
to its stockholders.
1t must not be forgotten here, though it
may seem to be growing, not wholly forgot
ten elsewhere that in its chief aspect it is a
public corporation having duties to perform
to the public which transcend any obliga,
tion which in its private aspect it owes to
it's stock holders.
1t has received franchises of great value
from the state and had conferred upon 1t
the states transcendant power of eminent
domain.
They have duties to the public to perform,
and they must perform them. If they can
not get labor 10 perform such duties, at what
they offer, then they must pay more, and as
much as is necessary to get it. Likewise, if
the conditions in respect of hours or otherwise
which they impose, repel labor, they must
adopt more lenient or just conditions, as
they may not stop their cars for one hour,
much less one week, or one year, thereby
to beat or coerce the price or conditions of
labor down to price or conditions they Of
fer.
For them to do so. would be defiance of
law and of government.
In respect of the question of hours and
O f w ges between the company and its en-
pl Dyes, its duty was to have gone on wi h
its full complement of employees, having
the right gradually and from day to day to
supersede its employees if it can, by new
employees who will work on its terms, or
supersede them all at once when it has OBJ
tanned a sufficient number of new en-.
ployes for that purpose: but in such con
troversy it has not the right to stop its cars
while it is thus gradually getting other
men.

The Mob SIM at Work.

With the large force of 1,50O policemen.
1000 specials, some 300 or more Pinkertons,
and 1000 of the states best troops, the
Brooklyn, N. Y, mob continues their ter
rOrzng work.
The weather has been severe, and the men
ar marching around in the snow and slush
up to their shoe tops. Many of the mobs
are led by men who have no real interest in
the strike, except that they sympathize with
the strikers.
The strike on the surface roads has had
the effect of increasing the receipts of the
Brooklyn elevated lines from $98, 100 the
first twenty-one Gays of January, 1894, to
$128, ,7S5 the corresponding period this year.

AMONG OUR EXCHANGES.

Karnes County News: Karnes
County farmers have planted
enough corn this spring to supply
the home needs and have some to
spare. What they should do is to
increase the home demand by feed
ing more of it to cattle and hogs.
New Orleans States: The States
is in receipt of the Third Annual
Report of the Louisiana Society
for the Prevention Of Cruelty to
Children. This report makes a
most gratifying showing OF the
noble work this noble society has
done in the past twelve months.
The Louisiana Society for the Pre-
ventiOn Of Cruelty to Children
should be literally aided by the
people of our city. 1t has done
much good; but its means have
not been equal to the whole work
it has undertaken.
Fort Worth Mail and Telegram a:
The suburbs of this city arebuild-
ing up rapidly, sections that few
years ago were nothing but wild
prairie are now being dotted with
homes of city taxpayers. These
people are without water, and it is
but justice that the city in return
for the taxas they pay should at
least give them water works SER
vice. Whole sections are not only
without fire protection, but are
without water for domestic pur-
poses except what they buy from
water haulers-they derive no
benefits from being in the city, only
having the right to pay city
taxes.
st. Louis Globe. Democrat: The
Monroe doctrine does not estab lish
a United States protectorate over
the independent nations Of Central
and South America, and never was
intended to do this. Those coun-
tries must be made to understand
that we will not and cannot protect
them from the consequences of
any misconduct on their part to-
ward European nations. All that
Monroe and Secretary Of State
Adams ment by the declaration Of
1923 was that the United States
would consider an assault by any
European Powers on any nation of
this continent an unfriendly act
toward herself.

minds of those who are anxious to
remove from the land of droughts
! and billiards. to genial climate.
But, with all the advantages
possessed by Southwest Texas,
there is one essential thing which
she lacks, and that is, an increase
OF moisture, to fertilize the soil and
insure certain crops every year to
the farmer.
Irrigation is the only feasible
method of insuring good crops
every year in Southwest Texas, and
with irrigation, she could almost
feed the population Of the United
States. Here is a powerful induce
ment to the people Of Southwest
Texas to begin and prosecute a
system of irrigation, without de-
10y.
Irrigation would increase the
value of land a hundred fold
and be a potent magnet to attract
population from the northwest.
Rice, sugar, and tobacco could be
proftably grown with irrigation,
in addition to corn and cotton.
Truck gardens, orchards and
vineyards would also prove inn
mensely profitable. The popula
ton would become dense and every
acre of soil would be turned to &C
count.
The subject of irrigation must be
kept before the people until they
realize its necessity and it's utility
and resolutely set to work to OBJ
tain irrigation. These important
improvements can be accomplished
only through persistent discussion,
which will lead the people to study
them and to appreciate their value
Irrigation in southwest Texas
would increase the trade and bust
ness Of San Antonio, at least, ten
fold, because the country in which,
no crops are at present produced,
would be transformed into bloom
garden and teeming granary.
1t is vitality important to
San Antonio, that Southwest
Texas shall be converted into a
granary, yielding a surplus Of
crops for sale.
Irrigation is too important to be-
come threadbare topic. 1t re-
quires to be discussed and pressed
on the people.
