About II o'clock last night there was a
very lively row on Monkey Run" sec
ton of Rockville inhabited exclusively by
colored people. The participants were all
colored. nearly all of whom, 1t is stated,
wee under the influence of liquor The
trouble started in a dispute over some
trivial matter. Words led to blows, and in
a very short while about a dozen men were
mixed UP in the warmest kind of fight
During the melee George w. Meads, who
claims that he was attacked by an over
towering force, drew a revolver and fired
upon his adversaries. Two shots took eff
feet. Ambrose Proctor receiving both bull
lets. one in each leg. Meads was consider
ably battered about the face and head and
several others also received cuts and
bruises.
The town authorities, upon learning of
the disturbance, at once instituted an in
vestigation, with the result that warrants
were this morning sworn out for the arrest
OF those said to have been implicated In the
ARRAY. Disturbing the peace assault and
carrying concealed weapons were the Of
lenses charged. Two of those accused of
disturbing the peace were tried this after
noon before Justice of the peace and
upon pleading guilty. each was fined 81 and
costs.

1.-The advantage OF the measure, rs may
be seen. IS that the legislation is not com
pulsory, but optional In character. and
therefore imposes no injustice on any mu-
nicipaity which is content to abide by the
existing mode of levying taxes; on the
other hand, the local option law will at
once enable progressive communities, de-
string a change, the opportunity OF carry
ing their desires into practical effect. The
experiment carries with 1t no burdens to

object lesson and without cost to thNn.

Immediately after the publication OF the

That having thoroughly investigated and

proposition and submit few reasons
which have influenced this decision.
We find that By exemphng our industries

have thoroughly investigated the condi-

that about $3.50, 600 is invested In manu-

purpose OF escaping city taxation. Wesa
these factories exempt they would un

member that when the Southern Pacih
railroad hesltated between Houston an,
San Antonio as to the location OF thei

that for number OF years the yaluatio
