every portion Of the United States as well az
from every part Of the habiiabls globe. Con-
scqucntly it is an everyday occurrence for
the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from the
various European capitals about twelve or ff-
teen hours earlier than the morning papers

LIFTING BY MAGNETISM
The Electric Crane Has Just Now
Reached England.

An interesting use of magnetism long
known in this country is now being made
at the Sandycroft foundry. in England,
where electric cranes are operated from
the electric power and lighting works
in conjunction with electro magnets
which permit the ready lifting of pieces
of iron and steel weighing up to two
tons. The magnets constructed for lift
ing purposes are attached to a crane.
One magnet takes 5 IL amperes at ito
volts, to excite it, and will support n
weight of two tons of iron or steel. A
switch controls the supply of current de-
hvered to the magnet. 1t is stated that
by the use of this magnet three men do
the work in quarter of an hour which
previously took six men an hour and n
half to perfOrm.-Iron Age.

The governor yesterday appointed Ii
delegates at large to attend the semi
centennial convention, called to meet in
Dallas February %. His letter in reply
to the request is as follows: ~
Austin, Texas, January 81, 1896.
Mr.. II. w. DoOlittle, President Dallas
Commercial Club, Dallas. Texas-Dear
Sir: Your letter of the 9th inst is re-
ceived, asking me to appoint Ii delegates
at large to Il convention of the people of
Texas, to be held in the city of Dallas
on February 25th next, to consider the
holding there in 1897 of an exposition
commemorative of the semi-centennial
existence of Texas. Accompanying your
letter is an admirable address to the
people of Texas, outlining the purpose of
such an exhibition.
| have heretofore publicly expressed Il
warm interest in this enterprise and indi-
Gated desire to further it in any manner
in my power, but it affords me pleasure
to do so again. No State in the Union
possesses history more interesting or
so worthy of commemoration. Discov-
cred by the French explorer LaSalle in
1856 it was for more than century
alternately II French or Spanish prov
ince. Finally attached to Spain as II
limited to Spanish liberty and progress
but for the intelligence and resolution of
its population. The foreign inhabitants
were drawn from all of the original
States of the Union, who, devoted to the
principles OF the American government
and aided by choice spirits in Mexico
| attached to the cause of liberty, early
| developed independence of Spanish con-
troll. This disposition eliminated in the
separation from Spain in 1921 and the
| formation of the Mexican republic in
1924. in which the provinces of Coahuila
| and Texas became Il State. Nothing so
| establishes the wonderful influence of
| the American revolution upon its institu-
| tons than the constitution of Mexico
| adopted in 1924, for it was broadly
| fashioned after that of the United
States. 1t is a remarkable instrument;
| it's overthrow by the military despotsm
luton and yet it is to be found, l believe,
in no history of Texas except that of
| Mrs. Holley, neice of Stephen f. Aus
| tin, long out of print. Gradual en-
croachments upon popular government
| began in 1923 and in 1885, by inspira-
ton of Santa Anna, this constitution was
subverted. After the overthrow of the
| constitution the Texans, in November,
| 1885, met in convention and, appealing
to the sister Mexican States, declared
their purpose to maintain the Mexican
| Confederacy or establish an Independent
| government. This appeal met with no
response and on March .. 1896. Texas
declared her freedom from Mexico. The
heroism and sacrifices of the revolution,
resulting in independence and leading to
the admission of Texas into the Ameri-
can Union December 20, 1915, are I'M
surpassed in ancient or modern times.
The craftsmanship and courage of the
early patriots have their reward in Il
| State of imperial proportions. unriyalled
