victory For Texas Corporations.

Austin. March 9.-The corporations of
Texas won big fight in the district
court here in securing from Judge Nor
ris an opinion throwing out of court the
hundreds of franchise tax suits pending

contention hundreds of suits have been
brought al over the state to recover

is good news for everybody
here-about. II is good news about TINS
deservedly prosperous and popular COM
nanv. which has been in very large
way promoter of the prosperity OF the
city and of its worldwide good reputa-
ton as ship building and manutactur-
ing community.
Asa pioneer in the business OF iron
ship building, the early enterprise anu
success Of the Harlan & Hollingsworth
Company has not only conferred honor
upon this city and the State, but has
also benefited its people to an extent
that cannot be over.estimated. A few
wears ago, if we remember rightly, this
company had built more iron vessels
than all the other iron ship building
companies of this country; its products
have included every class OF iron
vessels, from the small vessel for inland
waters, to the ocean palace; from
the pleasure yacht to the monster
warships which have made the
nation a first class naval power COM
manding the respect and admiration OF
! the world; its ships are the strongest,
swiftest and most beautiful of the Amer
icon marine; they are not only products
of the highest degree of mechanical
skill, but specimens of art in applied
mechanics. The designing and building
of these vessels has put into labor its
highest quality, an appreciation OF the
, beautiful, and delight in it's produc-
ton. In this, and aside from the ma
teral benefits conferred upon the work
, men and their families, the desire Tor
/ that which is beautiful and elegant in
. their homes has been stimulated and
encouraged until, probably, no city Of
: the Union dominated by mechanical and
!, manufacturing interests can boast OF
g larger proportion of comfortable ano
4 elegantly furnished workingmen'i
: homes.
d 1t is not necessary to say in commen
r dation OF the results of this company't
enterprise and success, that all of thest
= good things have resulted from it. Othe
r firms of like interest and capacity hav'
q contributed their share, and share the
d honors with it; but it is true to say tina
% the Harlan & Hollingsworth Compan.
A. stands pre-eminent in ito place. 1t
b present prosperity is an assurance o
70 good things to come to everybody and t.
RS every commendable business enterprls
at of the city.
al The news of today includes higl
il. proof of The Harlan & Hollingswortl
v. Company's interest in and care for th
n people and business of the city. Th
b, contracts now on hand are far beyon
a. its own capacity, but have bsen secure
Ii and distributed among local establish
IN ments not so crowded with orders. Tw
,e- of the contracts for barges have bee
he sublet to the Pusey & Jones Company
m Another of the great manufacturing pit
its neer firms of the city, and this has bee
of done in order to retain the work here.
ch For this thoughtful care of the generi
MS interests OF the city President cause
is The Harlan & Hollingsworth Compan.
,n; deserves the thanks of its people, an
of The Sun, presuming to speak Tor then
100 heartily accords him that token Of a.

When plays that are shady and risky
Come in for phenomenal runs,
And heroines giddy and frisky

And herOlnes glddy and frlsky
Seem by far the most popular ones,
Just match 'em, from your recollection,
With better things done by the score.
And you'll find upon sober reflection
That humanity's sound ut the core.
OF course we're all sinners; that's certain,
And not always we do as we should,
But behind every sinners soul-curtain
There's mighty big leaven of good;
And the PLAYS and the books that last longest,
They prove to my mind and more,
With conviction the surest and strongest.
That humanity's sound at the core.

Saltwater, Minn, Feb Z, 1900.
At a meeting OF the Board OF Man
ayers held this day, the prices OF
Irvine f. o. b. Saltwater, to farmers
or actual consumers only, were fixed
as follows: MANILA and SISALz
MINED, 121Kk cents per pound; (only
100000 pounds made); PURE 81
SAL, 10 cents per pound No PURE
MANILA has been made, and none
will be made this season. During
the season from August LIST. 1897,
to August LIST, 1898, the price Of Ma
Mia hemp ranged from AZ to cents,
and Sisal from 3X to SIS cents per
pound. For the year '98 to so
about 100000 pounds OF Manila
were carried over, which cost an av-
erage Of 4.35 cents per pound. The
price OF Manila the same year, ranged
from 6X to ", and the price. Of Sisal,
from 6 and 1.16 to TX cents per
pound.
For the current year, Aug. 1st,.
1899, to Aug. 1st, 1900, the average.
cost Of Sisal purchased by US has
been 8 and 4.10O cents per pound.
delivered at Saltwater, which is q
little more than double the average
price OF '97-'98; and the advance iii
Irvine oil has been about two hum
dred per cent. In view Of these facts
the price established By the Board Of
Managers barely covers the costof
material, cost Of manufacture and q
reasonable allowance for repairs and.
depreciation Of the plant. ~
