How the Work is Progressing.

Messrs. Ward & Ockander have on
a good force of men street building
and they will keep up the lick until
every street is graded and graveled
in Bird Improvement District. We
took a look at the work being done
on Elm street this morning and
found several men at work placing
guttering stone in the cutters.
From there we went to spur track
on the Iron Mountain road near the
Collins building and saw several
cars being unloaded of stone both
for guttering and for curbing. The
curbing stone is some 10 inches wide
two or three inches thick and from
6 to 8 feet long. After Elm street
is graded, State Line Avenue from
Seventh street will be worked on, as
also Vine street, and these street
will be put in apple pie order, We
learned from Mr.. Ockander that the
West Side will bear its part of fixing
up State Line Avenue and that
when they get through with this
street, it will be one ofthe prettiest
streets i'll the South.

THE GREAT DAM GONE.

The dam across the Colorado river
at Austin, Texas, has been swept
away, and some Is or 20 people found
a watery grave.
The telegraphic news given out
says:
Austin, Tex, April THE great
dam across the Colorado river,
which was constructed seven years
ago at a cost of an even 1000, 900,
was swept away this morning by an
unprecedented food in that river.
The break occurred at 11:l5 o'clock
causing an instant rise of fully 80
feet in the river below the dam.
This torrent of water swept down
upon the broad valley below in all
of its force, leaving death and de-
struction in its wake. The power
house, municipal water, electric
light and power plant, all situated
Immediately below the dam, were
flooded instantly and eight persons,
men and boys, we're caught in the
powerroom and all except one were
drowned like rats in a trap. Those
who were drowned in the power
room were John Baiz, Walter Bios
som, Frank Pinget, Thomas Kirk
patrick, Old Dan (colored), all en-
ployes, and three boys, who we're
watching the food from the power
house windows. Frank Jones, an
engineer, miraculously escaped by
grabbing belt and hauling himself
out hand over hand through an
opening in the roof of the building
before the water reached him,
There we're eighteen lives lost in
the food asfar as known.

LET US BE LIBERAL TO FACTORIES

Brady Sentinel; Cotton spinners
/ are contracting for this years crop
of cotton at Sc and over. The build
ling of cotton mills in the South is
the cause of this. If Texas would
| offer bonus to every cotton mill in
| the State instead of taxing the life
out of them, every town of any size
in the State would have one.
AS factories can not be relieved
from taxation by the State the fac
tories will generally locate in small
towns where there is little muni-
cipal tax. This question of relieving
the factories of tax has been agi-
tated for years in Texas, but the
idea did not make much headway
till this last boom period for factor
les came on. Mississippi has re-
lieved them and other States will do
likewise. Dallas News.
We are in favor of not only re-
lieving the factories from city tax
TOR a number of years, say five or
ten, but also of raising sufficient
money to buy them a site to build on.
We have always been liberal with
railroads, in giving them a helping
hand and we do more for our city
and community by acting literally
with cotton as other factories. We
have a town ideally situated for
several different kinds of factories,
where the raw material is right at
our door: Namely, cotton factory,
fruit box factory Cotton wood
handle factory (hickory and ASH,
stave factories (oak), jug factories
| CLAY and many other kinds of fac
tories. We think that tannery
would do well here and we know a
ready market could be found for all
leather tanned. Let us wake up,
organize an improvement brigade,
buy eligible sites for factories and
either give or lease for number Of
years at low rentals to those parties
who many wish to locate with us
and engage in the factory business,
