country with Corpus Christi
by means of a railroad. He
spoke in the most glowing
terms of the success of the ex-
periments of the company in
grape culture, saying they were
well satisfied and encouraged.
The Texas Land and Cattle
company, and one of Mr.. Og
denis clients, who, by the way,
is one of the wealIhiest railroad
owners in the United States,
but who wishes foreman in
the background yet awhile, are
interested with Mr.. Ogden's
company in this enterprise,
and are determined, he said, to
make it a success.
The old dummy line railroad
track, built here in boom days,
extends TO Aberdeen, five miles
below this place, and it is in
tended to utilize this with an
addition Of about eleven miles
o. new track to connect Flour
Bluff with the San Antonio and
Arkansas Pass road. The new
track can be built at a cost Of
something like $40 900, most of
which has been donated in
lands, and it only remains now
for the citizens of Corpus
Christi to raise a few thousand
dollars to have the work begin
in lew days.
Mr.. Ogden's speech was we'll
received and the people have
taken right hold of the matter.
The committee appointed las
gone to work and 1T is confident
Iy believed work will be begun
on the new road before the end
of the month.
The new enterprise is attract
ing more attention locally than
anything started here in a long
time, owing to the ability of
the parties most interested to
do what they say they will.

morrow evening, when furthe1

THERE IS ANTAGONIST.
l. Exists in the West Against
the East-Opinions of
Two Governors.

New York, July Gov.
Mcintyre of Colorado is quoted
as follows today on the feeling
existing against the East:
"There does exist a feeling of
antagonism to certain class
es and interests, which, as the
West believes, unduly domi
nate national Legislation and
particularly the administration
Of the national government.
The selfish and inconsiderate
action or course of what is
loosely termed the money pow
er is the cause of whatever feel
ing of antagonism that may ex
list. Unquestionably, unscrupu-
lous men controlling great cor
porations have had little regard
for the welfare of the people at
large and have crushed out, so
far as they were able, whom
soever they found in the way.
Whether such men or pora.
tons were located east or west,
north or south, they would act
along the same lines and with
the same disregard for the
rights of others, having in mind
success only. 1t happens that
these men and corporations
have their habitat in the
east, but the dislike for them
and their methods and the re-
suits they have brought about
is not directed against the rest
of the community in which they
reside. l may say it is not
sectional, but class"
Governor Budd of California
says on the same subject: 81
do not recognize any hostility
between the people of the south
and west and those of the east.
I here are, however, between
these sections political differ
ences over certain economical
questions. An unnecessary
amount Of irritation, has been
aroused by the arbitrary and
dictatorial manner in which
some of our leading men and
papers, both east aud west
have handled the subject"

WILSON ON THE ISSUE.
Says the Free Coinage Fallacy
Is Bound to Disrupt
the Party.

New 1 Orh, JHIy . lie
World this morning publishes
a copyrighted signed statement
written by Postmaster General
w. L. Wilson. Among other
things Mr.. Wilson says:
"This momentous issue seems
TO be about to be decided under
conditions little favorable to
calm discussions. This in itself
is ground for alarm. It's truly
said by the late Mr.. Lamar that
financial legislation deals with
the most intricate and sensitive
parts of the apparatus of civil
society-the currency ola coun-
try and the all .pervading rela-
ton of debtor and creditor.
This being true, there is moth
ing in the relations of human
society that ought to be touch
ed so cautiously so that nothing
may affect it disastrously.
"rhe issues are not political,
as the standard Of value and
quality and quantity, should
be submitted to popular vote,
such submissions can he safely
made only after full and earn
est discussion when the people
are ready to listen with open
minds aud then TO determine
what is right. 1t is not right
TO force such questions into the
arena OF party politics In time
of general depression, when
men are too often ready prey
to any fallacy or delusion that
is held out TO them as an i'm
mediate relief for their distress
es.
sour uniform experience has
been that in every era Of hard
tines many voters are the vic
Tins of financial delusions, and
and concessions to these delus-
ions or compromises with them
are directly responsible for our
deprecated monetary system
at is now proposed to com
nit the party to the free coin
age of silver at an arbitrary
ratio so that the government
shall stamp as Il dollar 100
cents worth of gold bullion or
so cents worth of silver bullion
for anyone ;hat offers the one
or the other at its minis. This
is not Democratic and cannot
be harmonized with the princi
pies or practices of the party"
He then outlines the histor
zeal career of the Democratic
party. He next says:
cit is a clear attempt to com
nit the party to free coinage of
silver at a ratio twice above its
ma. let value, as a supreme is
sue is to set up a new test Of
party fealty and one diametri-
cally opposed to all party de
clafation or action and the
warning has already been given
by leaders whose words cannot
be lightly rejected that such p
step would ine7itably result in
more or less party disruption

A TIMELY WORD.

The members of the Bar have
sometimes opposed the manner in
which cases against gamblers and
opium smokers are disposed OF by
the police authorities. Whenever a
raid is made on Chinese gambling
or opium den and a number of
people are arrested it has become
customary to have two or three OF
the culprits plead guilty and enter
a aolle prosequi in the majority OF
the cases. The wealthy culprits are
induced to plead guilty and general
ly get of with a fine OF which in
opium cases the informer gets one

As could be expected OF Queen
Liliuokalsni she has not given any
opportunity to the American Rows
paper reporters to make sensation
out OF her visit to the States. The
subsidised press in New York and

matter OF course try to make fun of
the Queen aud her visit to Washing
ton.
The proposed action of the U. S.
congress in regard to Cuba is very
i'll advised and can only lead to in
ternational complications. The in
surgents OF Cuba have no seat of
government and are not in posses
sion OF the government buildings
and archives, the excuse Of John l..
Stevens for recognizing the Dole
junta in 1898. Nations as we'll as
private people are always wise in
minding their own business. The
Cuba rebellion is a matter between
Spain aud her subjects and the

The Company known through
out the world as the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO,

Having met with the highest sue
cess in the manufacture and sale of
the excellent liquid laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, it has become import
ant to all to have knowledge of the
Company and its products. The
great value of the remedy rs a medi-
cinal agent, and of the Company's
efforts, is attested by the sale of
millions of bottles annually and by
the high approval of most eminent
physicians.
The California Fig Syrup Co. was
organized more than twelve years
ago, for the special purpose of
manufacturing and selling laxative
remedy. which would be more
pleasant to the taste and more bene-
fetal in its effects than any other
known. In the process of manufact-
uring, figs are used. as they are
pleasant to the taste, and healthful
in their tendencies, but the medicinal
properties of the remedy are obtained
from an excellent combination OF
plants known to be incidentally lax
alive, and to act most benefcially.
If in the enjoyment OF good health,
and the system is regular, then
laxative or other remedies are not
needed. If afflicted with any actual
disease one may be commended to
the most skillful physicians, but if
in need of laxative, then one
should have the best and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most
largely used and gives most general
satisfaction.
