the feasibility OF improving the Trinity
to a navigable stage, the city OF Dallas
will eventually succeed In obtaining the
governments assistance and the accom-
plishment OF the work.
There is but one mind and one spirit In
the North Texas metropolis as to this
subject, and no sacrifices will be held too
great to secure success in the undertaking.
That city will work as one man to carry
the project to successful conclusion
Here is an example for Houston. There
are scores OF prominent and well-to- do
citizens in this city who are disposed to
look with indifference on our own great
to let others take the whole burden upon
themselves. and It Is. possibly, this very
spirit that has so long prevented the real
ization OF Houstons much deferred hope
in the premises. We must see a change
here! other cities are pushing their am
bilious schemes with enthusiastic unan-
unity: Houston must do likewise.
If Dallas can dream. and with reason,

riages, should General Miles fail to arrive
but In case he should get here the senator
will join him in his visit TO the govern
ment works and afterward participate In
his reception rendered by the people OF
Galveston.
Senator Thurston was informed soon
after his arrival of the death of Vice Presi-
dent Hobart and had this to say OF the
deceased statesman:
Il feel a deep sense of personal loss In
the death OF the vice president. He was
not only one Of the ablest and most popu-
lar men who ever filled that position. but
he had been for years my intimate per-
sonal friend. AS presiding officer of the
senate he was beloved by every senator.
Always courteous, kindly and impartial in
his rulings, he completely filled ones ideal
Of what vice president should be- The
loss of the vice president will be deeply
felt in all official and social circles IN
Washington. His home was the center of
hospitality and the vice president and
Mrs. Hobart were the most genial and
successful host and hostess Washing ON
has ever known There will be but one
sentiment in the country, that of honor
and respect for him as a man, OF admira-
tion as an official and of deepest regret
at his untimely loss"
The senator Immediately wired a mes
sage OF coincidence 10 Mrs. Hobart.
Senator Thurston and party will leave
tomorrow afternoon for San Antonio, where
they will spend dav or two and then start
for his home in Nebraska, stopping at
Austin and Fort Worth on the way, and
expect to reach Omaha in time to take
Thanksgiving dinner.
Mrs. Thurston is an exceptionally bright
and intellectual lady and is a fitting wife
for the senator from Nebraska.

A TRIUMPH OF PUBLIC SPIRIT.

Dispatches In The Post yesterday in
formed the public that Colonel Richie. in
charge of the government river and har-
Dor work In this section OF the country
had completed his report as to the matter
OF the Improvement of the Trinity river
and would likely visit Dallas shortly to
discuss the question involved. before sub
uniting his conclusions finally to the au-
thoritles at Washington.
1t would be a remarkable instance OF
the triumph of intelligent public spirit II
the government should at last be induced
to take up the work of rendering the
Trinity na~sgable to Dallas for even
barges and the smaller kind OF river
craft. The Texas public will remember
that when the Dallas people few years
ago began to agitate this improvement. the
scheme was not only regarded as chimer-
ical but the citizens OF the North Texas
metropolis and the incident of the great
ovation to the little Harvey, when 1t
finally made its way TO Dallas, became
the subjects OF much pleasant ridicule in
the Texas press.
About that time came the "bursted
boom" in North Texas. Dallas dropped
her ambitious projects and in common
with other fine schemes for the upbuild-
ing OF that growing city, the improve
ment OF the Trinity was for time ap-
parently forgotten. 1t seems, however,
that the faith was still strong in the
feasibility of rendering the river TO
large extent navgable. There were pub
lie spirited and far sighted citizens in Dali
las who kept the matter in mind and made
It the object of their earnest solicitude.
AS result We now find the government
investigating the subject and the intima-
ton comes that Colonel Riches report
