Ex-senator NJ. G. Butler, of South
Carolina, in reply to certain ques-
tions recently asked him as to the
race question in the south, says a
Greenville dispatch, says he believes
the government should provide a
place of emigration for the negroes.
He says: "To my mind it behooves
the government of the United
States to carry out the proposition
of President Lincoln and provide a
home in Central or South America
or elsewhere where the negro may
be induced to emigrate and set up
for himself. 1t would be infinitely
better for the negro, who can never
reach the full measure of American
manhood and citizenship with his
environments of race prejudice and
estracism in this country"

The Marvel of the Locomotive

1t all sounds simple in the recital.
The wonder of the thing comes into
view only when one reflects on the
speed and nicely with which cum
brous parts are made to do their
duty. The piston and connecting
bar of a modern locomotive weighs
some six hundred pounds. When
the speed is sixty miles an hour
these parts travel back and forth
five times a second. Ten times a
second, at the end of every stroke,
the piston head is at rest. 1t must
pass from this condition to a velo-
city of | 800 feet per minute in one
twentieth of a second. The drive
wheels measure more than a rod at
every revolution, but when going
sixty miles an hour they must turn
more than three hundred times a
minute.
Sixty miles an hour is the merest
commonplace to the mind of the up
to-date railroad man, but it means
other things besides those described
that are wonderful to the outsider,
II means a steam pressure blow of
twenty tons on each piston head
every tenth of a second. 1t means
that up in the cab the fireman is
throwing into the furnace two.
thirds of a ton of coal every hour;
No. 900 burns coal faster than two
men can mine it. 1t means two
quarts of oil every hour to keep her
journal boxes CREASED and every
thing running smoothly. 1t means
that the engine with it's half dozen
cars and load of human freight is
moving through space with twice
the power of a shot from a hundred
ton gun. 1t means that tie engin-
eer has worked her up to the point
where she can use every ounce of
steam, that he is coaxing her as a
Jockey urges his mount in a fierce
race, and yet it means that he is
ready at a seconds notice to move
the reversing lever and apply the
ale brakes that will stop the;mighty
steam avalanche within the distance
that it covers as it stands on the
tracks. Earl W. Mayo, in the No
vember Ainslees.

1t is said that this is how the
game of base ball first started. The
devil was the first coacher He
coached Eve when she stole first.
Adam stole second. When Isaac
met Rebecca at the well, she was
walking with a pitcher. Sampson
struck out a good many times when
he beat the Philistines. Moses
made the first run when he slew the
Egyptians. Cain made base hit
when he killed Able. Abraham
made a sacrifice. The prodigal son
made home run. David was a
long-distance thrower and Moses
shut out the Egyptians at the Red
Sea.-Ex.

Horrors of Philippine war.

Tales come to us of the sufferings
endured by our brave soldiers in the
Philippines. The papers ring with
them and sympathy is freely given.
And yet there are people in our
midst of whom we hear nothing who
are just as brave. They are suffer
ing silently and fighting bravely
with the greatest enemy of man
kind-dyspepsia and all its terrible
ills. There is relief for them if they
will take Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters faithfully. 1t will cure dyspep-
sia, constipation, biliousness, mala-
ria, fever and ague and liver and
kidney troubles. 1t tones up the
whole system. Get it from any drug

In our Wednesday issue a refer
ence was made, complimentary of
the Bowie District Court in con-
victing murderers at the present
term, which fact should tend to
check the mob spirit and further
expressed the hope that no minister
in this part of the moral vineyard
would again "openly advocate mob
law. In this mornings Courier we
see card from Rev. Percy Fem,
in which he calls said squib mud
Singing, and says, II stand pre-
cisey where / stood when | wrote
that letter., referring to his let
ter in the Courier last April,
wherein he urged white-capism and
used this language: "Once again,
let us all agree to make short work
of the next cowardly murderer
Our squib of day before yesterday,
we think, was timely--can see moth
ing wrong in tiff Rev. Fem wants
to keep up his record of advocating
mob law, it is his right and privilege.
While we will not discuss matter
with a minister, will unhesitatiugly
say that this paper cannot endorse
his position, and we do not believe
that our law-abiding citizens do.

1t is a notable fact that many
good items are lost to the newspa-
per every day by the modesty of the
people concerning themselves. The
right thing to do is to courteousIy
stop the reporter on the street or
any other place you may see him,
and tell him that you have been on
a visit, have relations visiting you,
that you and your wife entertained
friends, or anything that is in any
way a matter of news. If you have
done anything mean, keep that TO
yourself for he already knows It;
there are others who make II their
business TO tell that. lex,

Here is a Pointer Right,
The following railroad clipping

The following railroad clipping is
taken from the Globe Democrat:
"Col. G. N. Points, of Shawnee,
Okla, president of the Shawnee,
Oklahoma and Indian Territory
Railway Company, is at the South
ern, on his way from New York to
.he West. Contracts, he says, are
signed to furnish all money neces-
sarv, by New York parties, to build
this line fpom Wichita, or some
good point in Kansas. to Deuison
and Texarkana.
Now if our readers will take a
map and trace the route this road
will take, they will see that it will
leave Wichita, Kansas, and traverse
ir almost an air line direction to
Texarkana, and touch the following
places in Kansas and the Indian
! Territory. The road will run
through Arkansas City, Kansas,
thence to Supulpa, and on to Eufala
South McAllister, and Luscahoma,
all in the indian Territory. At
South McAlister, a branch will be
built to Denison, Texas. This road
is certainty and we will have the
trains coming in here before 1900 is
ushered out or we will be grevously
fooled.
Iu!connection with matter of new
railroad building, as to the good for
this city, we note in the Dallas
News few days ago, that the Ar
kansas and Choctaw road has not
been idle, but the parties owning
it have graded the road opposite
Bonham and are pushing work up
the north bank of Red River, with
Wichita, Texas, as their western
point.
We would also state that Genera
Superintendent Kress, of the Tex
arkana and Shreveport road, SAYS
one more month will put this road
into Shreveport.
AS to the Mississippi River and
Hamburg road, we have not hearc
from it in several days, but we sup,
pose it will be built in time.
The outlook is bright for our city
in more ways than one, as to rail
road building.

cause we are in it'-that is, be-
cause the President, of his own no.
