following subjects

yolving railway turnouts, reserying
to the state the right to recover
land where the title Is yet In the

Of alienation and where suits have
already been instituted,
2, Reform the criminal laws by
equalizing challenges, provide that

not raised for the first time in the

An exchange says; ut Is useless
for the local editor to waste his
lungs and sprain his conscious in
trying to boom his town, when the
citizens all stand around with their
hands in their pockets and wait In
differently for something to turn
up"
Our city has been waiting for 70
years for Something to turn up"
and they are a little inclined up to
this date to thus waste their time
away, We could have had the Ty'

and we think we could get them
here now, for a little old ten thou

BOWIE COUNTY GOES DRY"
a Glorious Victory Won by the
ProhibitiOnists.

Yesterday, March the 9th, will
long be remembered in the annals
of Bowie county history, as the day
the friends of temperance dealt
whisky IFS "knock out" blow, having
voted the monster evil out of the
county, in the local option election
by large majority-estimated
at from 500 to 700 votes.
1t was well known by nearly
everybody that whisky was doomed,
even before the election was called,
and the grand victory achieved by
the earnest work of the lovers of
the home and sobriety's is not a sur
prise to us, nor scarcely anybody
else.
In Texarkana, the Sight waged
hotly on both sides, and both sides
claimed a small majority. After
the votes were counted, a majority
of Is was shown for the ants. A
brave, noble fight for prohibition
was made here, else a much larger
adverse majority would have result
ed, But the big temperance ma
iorities came in from the western
part of the county, proving that
the good people of the whole coun-
ty are tired of "rum rule"
AS we stated in November last,
the banishing of whisky from
Texarkana, will do more toward
giving the city good name abroad,
thau anything else. For this rea-
son, as well as for the moral i'm
provement, all can rejoice over the
election.
Attorney F, M, Henry informs us
that the law will give the saloon
men sixty days, from next Monday
(the day tor counting the vote) in
which to wind up their business.
Money for all unexpired licenses will
then be returned them, Therefore
on May 10th next, prohibition in
Bowie county will 60 into effect,
As Miller county is already dry"
having voted out whiskey in Sep
tember last, the whisky curse will
soon be a thing Of the past in Tex
arkana, and Miller and Bowie coun-
ties,
"God moves in mysterious way,
His wonders to perform" Truly
He has redeemed our city from the
tough element, for which every
Christian knee should bend in hum

Why, Mrs, George Gould recently
trimmed a bonnet in such bewitch-
ing shape that it would fetch at
least $50 on the counters of any of
the Nine. Os and Nine, Macs who
have their studios on Fifth avenue
And the material cost 10 cents.
1t was dream a melody in mill
linery,
But did she trim that hat just for
fun?
Nay, May, brother Felix, Mrs,
Gould was in training,
She was honestly endeavoring to
perfect herself in the art of the mil
liner-that form of dexterity which
enables one to collocate a few shreds
of flowers, ribbons and wings, and
demand good cash for the combina-
ton exactly as a table d'hote cook
makes a 81 croquette from the scraps
of last nights 50-cent boeuf a la

What Edgar Fawcette would call
la haute societe is just now turning
itself into industry. Rich folks are

I Is it fear of the impending social
revolution2 Who knows2
Mrs. Cruger doesn't--and she is
supposed to know everything
But it is certain that from the
day when John Jacob Astor became
a machinist, and invented street
sweeper, the upperset circles have
been inoculated with a desire to
labor.
OF course, women couldn't invent
trip hammers or novels, They
hadn't the experience, But there
was one form of manual labor for
which they were fitted
They could devise hats and
stocks.
This explains the glad welcome
accorded to Miss Eleanor Ferris,
when she went to Lakewood, NJ j.,
a few weeks ago and started a school
in millinery,
Sun baths were faded Afternoon
drives were undriven, Every wo.
man has since devoted herself to
making bonnets. Mrs Merriman
now feels herself a worthy rival of
Kate REILLY, and should Mrs. Ed
Harding 20 up to New York and

she would sniir dlsdainfully and say,

probable request for a commission
to determine Waller's rights in Mad

between the French ard American

there is little else for the United
