gan TO How into the canal from the
Mediterranean sea in February 1869,

by the following October the canal WAS
navigable by ocean vessels of the larg-

by the tidal influence from the Red
Sea, the Hood running in for about sew

HE is PLEASED WITH HOUSTON
JUDGE BRADFORD OF ARDMoRE
TALKS ABOUT HOUSTON.
Immense improvements since His
Last visit Thirteen Years Ago-sit-
nation in the Indian Territory.

Judge S. B. Bradford OF Ardmore. l. T.,
district and formerly attorney general OF
Kansas. was in Houston yesterday for the
first time In thirteen years. Some three
months ago. through the influence OF Colo
mel w B. Slossen. he was induced to pur-
chase two blocks OF Houston city property
without ever having seen 1t, and he Is
here to see what kind OF a deal he made.
When asked by Post man what he
thought of his purchase, he replied: i
bought the property on the Recommended
ton of Colonel Slosson. and knew that 1t
was good value for the price paid. / would
not sell for double what 1t cost me. When
visited Houston thirteen years ago II
was nothing more than an overgrown
country town; now II is metropolitan
city of 10000 people with a future that no
other Texas city has. The substantial i'm
provements in way of buildings and other
public enterprises show that men of CAPT
tai have conferred in Houston as the place
to invest their money. Then your street
improvements will compare with any city
In the South.
THE appropriation made by congress
assures deep water and being the rail-
road center of the South. Houston is
bound to be the central shipping point for
the entire West. The time Is not far dis
tant when the entire cotton crop of Texas
and all other exports OF the West and
| South will be loaded on the steamers at
| Houston.
| Judge Bradford talked Interestingly of
| Indian Territory matters, and said that
| since the Federal courts had assumed en-
! tire jurisdiction over that country crime
| was materially diminishing and tho time

than the Territory in which to hide He
| had only last week sentenced twenty seven
| prisoners to the penitentiary at Leaven-
| worth, Kan, and would open court again
Tuesday at which term there were to be
| tried sixteen murder cases.
The work of Judge Bradford at wash
ington in the interest of the appropria-
ton for the deep water project is appre-
ciated by the people of Houston. Through

TO cast its vote for this bill, and no will
be gratefully remembered for his labors
