SAM SANGER,
TO MAKE A FREE BRIDGE
out Of the Bundick Bridge ON
the NavasOta River.

Mr.. W. A. Gustayus Of Madison
county, was in the city yesterday
talking up a movement 10 make
free bridge out Of the toll bridge
across the Nayasota river on the
road from Bryan TO the Bundick
aud Sand Prairie country. The
owner Of the bridge, which also in.
cludes a slough bridge near It, Of
fers to take $3.50 for both, we are
informed by Mr.. Gustayus, who al
70 states that Judge Wiley Of Mad.
ison county, assured him in con-
yer.ation recently that if Brazos
county would do her part towards
the enterprise Madison county
would free the bridge. A hundred
or one hundred and twenty-five
dollars is all that is wanted from
Bryan, we understand, and Mr.
Gustayus told the reporter he
would leave a list here 10 receive
subscriptions from the business
men all Of whom are interested in
this trade.
The people Of Madison county
are very partial to Bryan as a trad
ing point and it is the policy OF
Bryan to return the compliment OF
favor just as much as possible by
offering every inducement possible
TO the trade from Madison and all
other surrounding counties. This
road is the natural outlet for the
western part Of Madison and the
southern part Of Leon counties.
Mr.. Gustavus says ii is by far
the best road leading TO his county
and the tIade coming here over il
would be largely adyantaged and
increased with the removal Of the
toll for crossing the bridge, which

Socialist Gains in Germany.

Berlin. June 1S.-1n the reichstag
elections 339 results show that 1865 sec
ond ballots will be necessary. The re-
turns thus far assure the election Of "a
Conservatives. 1meprialists, II Cent
rists. Reformists, 6 National Liberals,
candidates Of the Radical Uniou, 80
Social Democrats, II Poles, l Dane and
independents. 1t is impossible as vet
to predict the composition of the new
reichstag. The crisis of the elections
will occur over the second ballots. A
few facts. however, stand out plainly,
The Centrists will, as heretofore, with
probably undlminished strength, hold
the balance of power with 100 seats,
enabling them to sway the reichstag in
either direction. A Cartel majority will
be next to impossible, and the So
cialists will, after all, not only largely
increase their poll, which it Is esti-
mated will reach 100000 votes, as
against 1,7S6000 in 1898, but will also in
crease their representation by ten to
twelve seats.

Senator Butler still In Control

Omaha, Neb., June 1S.-Shortly after
a. m. the conference of the Populist
committee adjourned sine die. The
final outcome was the practical rout of
the middle-o f-the-road crowd under
the leadership of Milton Park, although
the liberal wing made some conces-
sions. The attempt to Gust Senator
Butler from the leadership was a sig
nal failure. There will be no convcn-
ton in 1899 to outline the policy of the
PARTY. In 1900 there will be an early
convention to nominate national
ticket, the same to be held prior 20
the Democratic convention. No over
ture looking to fusion will emanatt
from the national committee, and none
will be received and entertained by it.
