Good manners remove the friction
in life. They produce the courteous
soul, the gentleman, the lady. They
inculcate consideration for others,
thus promoting altruism. II there
was closer adherence to good man
ners, there would be less c;ime, less
lying, less injustice and less vice.

STREET. WORK.

Street Superintendent J d. Con-
lee has put his force 10 work on
the south end Of Main street. under
the direction Of the street commit.
tes Of the city council. Plows and
scrapers were going yesterday; the
work advanced rapidly and shows
up we'll. Work on Main street first
will be of two-fold benefit. First
it will benefit all the people Of the
town and all who come here; and
second, it will be an object lesson
in street improvement that will
tend TO aid in carrying the work
on until the streets are fixed
throughout the city. The people
appear to be responding cheeriully
to the demands Of the ordinance
for street work of able bodied
men between the ages Of 81 and -,
Notwithstanding the seneiment in
the minds Of many that the meas
ure works a hardship on some. We
are fully aware of the force Of these
arguments, aud while noting that
the same plan has worked well in
other places, we also take pleasure
in stating that in some other places
whore it is in vogue, property own
ers over the prescribed age limit
have in some instances voluntarily
contributed the prescribed amount
either in labor or money to the
work. II occurs TO Us that this
shows a proper spirit and is en-.
encouraging to those who have To
Bryan morning eagle. [volume] (Bryan, Tex.) 1898-1909, 1900-02-01

do the work under the letter OF the
law. No town was ever built up
and no movement was ever success
ful in the fullest measure without
the unanimous sentiment and ef
fort of the people behind il. With
such united sentiment and action
the matter of street improvement
would soon resolve itself into an
easy problem, and those who vol.
UNFAIRLY contributed to the work
would be proiited many fold by the
for their additional
outlay. We throw out these sug-
gestions for what they are worth,
and would be glad to see a united
citizenship move forward to street
improvement, factory building and
progress along all lines.

The shooting of Senator Goebel
was the act Of a cowardly assassin
which has aroused the indigna.
ton Of men Of all parties through.
out the land, aud no punishment
which could be meeted out to the
guilty would be too severe. Tru.
ly, Kentucky is in bad way when
an assassin may Turk in her cap.

It's windows. 1t is high time that
the people Of the state regardless
of party, should unite and stamp

which breeds nothing but disorder

were delivered The resolutions COM

night, while the lnnin body OF the dele
gates were listening to the speeches At
Central Music hall. A ret OF resoiu-
tions were formulated by the commit
tee covering the following points:
Government ownership OF all rail-
ways and telegraph lines; the abolition
Of all special privileges by legislative
enactments; placing OH the free list Of
all trust goods and direct legisiation
by petition from the people.
The discussion In committee was car
ried out on those lines. An amend
ment was offered for the taxation of

Justice to 1t. Captain Torrevo sat near

said the captain. When I saw the
young man thought 1t was all up.
But I clubbed you we'll. did ! not?"
II should say So" said Rob. shrug-
ging his shoulders. which still ached
from the drubbing. But what is the
meaning of 1t all?"
"The meaning Of 1.-THE meaning of
my part of 1t is this: For some reason
or other, Starne wanted you to die.
II he or Elvin knew l saved your life
either one would kill you and me.
They stop at nothing. l don't know
why Starne wanted to kill you, but l
know enough not to let him kill me-"

But who Is Lemuel Starne?"
"He isn't Lemuel Starne at all. He
is Lemuel Elvin. the captains son."
But he hates me-"

Captain Elvin will kill anybody he
wants to get rid Of. He is the most
suspected and the most feared OF all
men in Buenos Ayres. But he is 30
crafty that the government cannot
catch him."
"But you! Why do you stick to a
man like that?"

You must SO remain. What! 1t is

We live on the best. What more do
you want?"
II want to reach my uncle"
Torrevo turned on him savagely

could not be mistaken. Il am not

I will kill you before Elvin has a

Rob looked at him appealingly.
There was no mercy In the dark and
now scowling countenance. He stroll

The dark crew sprang to work. the
