BRYAN MERCHANTS.
Again Reaching out for Basi-
ness-whatThey Have Done.

From the Jacksonville Meteor.
With the opening Of the fall bus
ness the number Of advertisements
in the Meteor from the Bryan mer-
chants is increasing every week.
They have an unbroken record Of
many years standing for enierpris-
ing methods in reaching out after
trade which the people appreciate
aud can not soon forget. They
never tire, in season OF out Of sea-
son, Of extending the invitation to
come and see them and look at
what they have to offer in all lines.
Bryan has already received this
season considerably over five thou
sand bales Of cotton in spite OF the
flood and the drouth shortages.
Last season she received abou
forty.two thousand bales. These
figures speak for themselves in
showing how Bryan is appreciated
as a cotton market and trading
point.
No county in the food district
perhaps suffered more heavily than
Brazos in the loss Of bridges b.
the flood, yet no county has more
quickly recupcrated. The bridges
have nearly all been replaced ard
the county has inangurated the
system Of working her convicts on
the roads and bridges. The con-
Wet force has been busy the pas'
week replacing the Bundick bridge
across the Navasota river, the ex
pense Of which is shared By TIM
county. The "Long Bridge" o.
trustle on the North Grimes roa'
II will next receive attention and b
rs put in shape. Independent of tn
: work done by Brazos county tn
BRYAN merchants have done mue
TO improve the roads and bridges
They have not only subscribe
money, but at times have gone OF
and camped to supervise and heI
with the work. Among the no
able things they have done recen
was the grading down of a sal
hill on the west side Of the Nayas
~ ia river on the jacksonville al
Bryan road.
N The Bryan business men ha
not only shown their appreciate
for years by adyertiseing a
other enierprising methods, b
they have come in person to
- reunions and on other occasiC
,ur. yearly, and by mingling with
n a,e people have formed ties that
-. not measured by trade-gettii

PETITIONS AGAINST ROBERTS.
A Revival of Opposition to the Rep

A Revival of Opposition to the Rep
resentative-EIect Expected.
An official of the House of Representa- A.
tives, speaking of the thousands of petit
tions filed during the last session of Con-
gress against the seating of Repi piesentative
elect Roberts, of Utah, said to Times re-
porter this morning: Il do not know
whether the sentiment against Mr. Robert
is as strong now as it was last winter,
but l do know that if the petitioners de-
sire tle coming Congress to consider their
prayers they must have them reintro1uced.
The petitions sent tolour Cngr ess and not
acted on die with adjournment. l expect,
however, that those who protested against
the seating Of Mr.. Roberts will flood Con-
gress at the very beginning of the session
with duplicates of their petitions. OF
course, Mr. Roberts will be sworn in the
same any other member elect his GER
ti1cate of election being regular and hav-
ing been accepted by the Clerk of the
House. The new petitions, if any are in
troduced, will be referred to the Commit
tee on Elections when that committee is
appointed. What action the committee
will take no one can tell.
Should the outcry against Mr.. Roberts
be as pronounced in December as it was
last winter, when the petitions came in by
the thousands, it will no doubt make the
members of the Committee on Elections
very uncomfortable, for the army of petit
TONERS scattered over the country will ex-
pect recognition

THE PoSToFFIcE LIBRARY.
An Effort TO BE Made to Enlarge and
Improve 1t,

Now that the Postoffice Department in
a few days will be under the same roof
with the City Postffice" remarked Fo t.
master Merritt to Times reporter today,
perhaps arrangements can be made
whereby the letter carriers and other en-
ployes of the City Postoffice may have az
cess to the library of the department
which, by the way, l understand is not
oyerstocked. i was somewhat surprised TO
learn the other day" continued Postmas-
ter Merritt, that nearly all the boks in
the Postoffice Library were volumes that
had found their way into the Dead Letter
Office, and also that large numbers of
them, including current magazines, were
contributed or donated by the clerks in
the department. l am sure that if tie
employees of the City Postoffice are per-
mitted TO obtain books from the depart
ment library they will be as liberal in
the matter Of contributing books and
magazines as the clerks of the department
AS yet have said nothing on this sub
ject to the Postmaster General but after
he is settled in his new quarters shall at
the first opportunity present the question
to him."
Assistant Postmaster Davis saws the
employees of the Postoffice would certainly
appreciate the use of the department IL
brary. He is of the opinion that if the
matter were properly presented to Con-
gress appropriation could be obtained
with which to purchase standard works
The reason the employees of the City Post
office have never had a library, he says, is
because the question has never been agi-
tated by the local press.
There are several thousand volumes in
the Postoffice Department library. and,
with few exceptions, all have been obtain
ed from the Dead Letter Office Congress
has never appropriated dollar for the
purpose of buying the works of we'll
known authors for this library, but it is
understood that this year an effort will
be made to have the library in keeping
with the dignity of the Postoffice building
The catalogue of the books of the library
is typewriter.

wants of Northwest Citizcns

copy of the annual report and statement Of
the needs of the Northwest Suburban Citizens
Association was received at the District Build
ing this morning. The report contains num-
ber of recommendations for improvements which
the association requests the Commissioners to
consider when they make out their estimates for
the appropriations for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1901. Principal among these is the
statement of the need OF a police station
to be erected in Tenleytown. The report states
that at present the nearest police station is in
Georgetown. and all persons arrested for viola
tons of the law are transported from Tenleytown
to the city station. which is some distance and
often results in great inconvenience not only to
the police, but TO the people residing in the vi
cinity. On account OF the inconvenience the %
lice are thus subjected to, there are many cases
of disorder where no arrests are made The
matter has long been discussed by the citizens
of the Northwest Association, and they have sew
eral times made the Recommendation that is con-
taned in their report this year. They ask that
an appropriation Of $4,000 be made to erect =
suitable station. The association also recommends
that an appropriation Of $4,000 for the compile
tion Of the bridge across Rock Greek. from Con-
| nectieut Avenue extended. The bridge in ques.
| tion is public necessity. il is urged and wilI
| he great public improvement, in addition to

TO STAY AN EXECUTION.
John T. FOw1er's Petition Against q
Justice of the Peace,

Justice of the Peace.
John T. Fowler today, through his at
torneys, Linscomb & Walker, filed a pc
tition for ceruoran against Justice of the
Peace Charles S. Bundy in the suit brought
by HI. j. HEM & Co. against the petitioner
for debt.
Fowler sets forth in his petition that on
September IA last the plaintiffs filed suit
against him before Oliver P Johnson. a
justice of the peace, having his Office in
Georgetown. and also claiming to have a
branch office on East Capitol Street; that
he, upon being summoned to appear in
Georgetown, asked for a change of venue,
which he claims should have caused the
case to be referred to Justice of the Peace
A. S. Taylor, but that Justice johnson un-
lawfully transferred the cause to Justice
Bundy for hearing. The latter, without
notice to the petitioner, it is alleged in
vestigated the matter. and entered judg-
ment against Fowler, and this morning is
sued an execution.
Fowler now asks that the execution is
sued by Justice of the Peace Bundy be
declared void and to have all the papers
in the case certified to the Supreme Court
of the District. The amount involved is
S35.65.
