VOLUME XVI.

The TExARKANIAN has Just entered
upon new volume-XVI. The
present editor and proprietor has
been at the helm continuously for
nearly half of this time. Paper has
never missed an issue for fifteen
years, and is decidedly the oldest
paper here-News was established
only few months since, and Cour-
ier in May, 1897, we believe.
The paper has had varied expe-
rience, sometimes enjoying prosper
ity. Since our connection with it,
it has stood up for TeXarkana first,
last and all the time. 1t has had
for its principles right and justice,
and ever sought to be fair and i'm
partial to one and all,
We desire to thank the kind pat
rons who have stood by us during
our connection with the paper, auo
in every instance we have endeav-
ored to give full value received
have never sought patronage upon
any other basis. Business and good
will accorded us is always apprecia-
ted-feel that we can never do too
much to reward our friends, As
for those who have given us the
"cold shoulder will say we have
nothing unkind to say-simply let
them go their way aud we go ours,
AS in the past paper will continue
to pull for the good of TeXarkana,
and fearlessly advocate the right,
as we see it, In politics it will re-
main Democratic, but reserves the
right to criticse any and all party
acts.
With charity toward all we go
forward with our work

Holland Excursion Coming.

]. E. Kroes recently received a
letter from the Amsterdam office OF
the Port Arthur Land Company
which contained much Information
of an encouraging nature for the
Hollanders residing here, and among
other things it stated that an ex-
cursion would leave some port in
Holland on October 2Ist for the
purpose of bring many Hollanders
and their families to join the Dutch
colony at Nederland. Just which
port the ship would sail from and
what steamer would bring the peo-
pie was not stated in the letter, but
Mr.. Kroes said he would inform US
of these facts later on when ar
rangements were more nearly com
pleted. 1t is expected, however,
that the colony at Nederlaed will be
considerably augmented by the ar
rival of this steamer and cargo Of

ed the article quoted in this paper last
Saturday. There were no christiens
