Evidence that Prosperity is Here.

The Clinton Qowa) Advertiser.
which was not entirely satisfied
that prosperity had arrived, sent
reporters to interview a number
of business men, and some of the
interviews are given:
Havemeyer-Never knew the
prospects for business to be bet
ter. The sugar trust cleaned up
a few millions out of the last deal
they had on sugar, and the Ding
ley tariff will enable it to still
further increase its profits.
Business never before looked so
bright.
Morgan-We made a good
thing out of the Cleveland bond
deal, but the recent increase in
the selling price of the bonds has
enabled US to still further add to
our profits. This has been due
to the fact that President Nc
Kinley has determined to stand
by the gold standard, as evil
denced by his request for the
appointment of a currency COM
nilsson.
Lumber Baron-The additional
duties placed on lumber have ad-
ded millions of dollars to the
value of the stumpsge we own.
Prospects for business never
looked brighter.
Steel Rail Maker-The fact
that We are enabled to get our
help for less wages shows there
is boom in the iron business.
Clews-Operators of Wall
street never cleared greater pro-
fits than they have during the
last two or three months.
Coal Operator-We were be-
ginning to enjoy a fine and fair
ly prosperous season, as we had
made arrangements to secure our
labor for a much less cost than
ever before, but the fool miners
did not know when they were
we'll off, and are out on a strike.
In the mean time, the coal we
have on hand is bringing a much
better price so that we are doing
fairly well. AS soon as the min
ers are brought to terms you will !
see prosperity return in a great |
tidal wave.
Federal OfIceholder-I never
saw times more prosperous than
they are at present. After being

earn my living for four long

THE Houston Post states that
Mr.. A. j. Conley, manager of the
Luling Oil Mill, recently made an
experiment with mesquite beans
that may prove of great value to
Southwest Texas. He had gath
cred a ton of mesquite beans,
and treated them in the same
manner as he does cotton seed.
From the ton of beans he secured
sixteen and a half gallons of
clear, amber-colored oil, very
rich and with very pleasant, aro-
matte smell. The cake is dark
brown, quite oily, and is eaten
greedily by stock. 1t is a well
known fact that stock fatten rap
idly on the beans, and that the
year when the crop is a heavy
one is always a prosperous one
for stockmen. This year the
beans are very plentiful, thous-
ands of tons of them falling from
the trees and rotting. If they
could be saved in the shape of
oil cake there would be almost
enough to carry stock through
the winter.

THE New York World is re-
sponsible for the assertion that
two million dollars was contri-
buted to the Mckinley campaign
fund by the very men who are
now urging upon Mckinley to
allow them to rob the Govern
ment of a score of millions in the
Union Pacific deal. Cornelius
n. Bliss was treasurer of the
campaign fund. He handled
every check. He is one of Nc
Kinley's constitutional advisers.
Mckinley knows all about the
matter. He knows how rascally
a scheme this is, and he knows
how to stop it. VIII he stop it?
Or will he become a sharer in the
cascally? Whatever else he may
afford, he cannot afford to per-
nit the men who contributed his
campaign fund TO square them
selves" by robbing the Govern
nent. !

The Cameron Herald learns
that the organization among ten
ant farmers to break up the cash
rent system exacts pledge from
members not to contract to pay
money rent. The movement is
strong in many counties in Cen
trail Texas. They contend that
with the present price of cotton,
there is not a living in farming
under the cash rent system. At
Blevins, in Falls county, two
members of an anti-cash rent
club were taken out and severely
whipped for violating their
pledge: 1t is said that in some
sections of the state merchants
will not credit men who contract
to pay heavy cash rent, as the
landlord comes in ahead of any
other claim, and the chances for
loss are too great. This is an
important question, and is one
that should be speedily and ami
cably adjusted.

Oaks railroads have taken hold OF the
matter and the Santa F'e is now asking
to be counted in with the others in

the right of way from Austin STREET to
Stanton street along the river and
propose to build levee above the high
water mark to connect with the levee
already built. These roads will build
two tracks on the levee and will thus
form a belt line alcng the river front
which they will use for yard purposes
and such other use as they may desire,
and all they ask OF the city is the right
of way and strip OF land lying south
of the Texas & Pacific aud White Oaks
line. 1 am determined that the levee
shall be built but 1 will recommend
some changes in the roads program,
as 1 think they should 60 nearer the
