10 LIE nkRALD.
Tioeano, Tex, March Some
six months past the postal depart
ment granted us a special mail line
from Arroyo to this point. The
department now proposes to es-
tablish a permanent route, sending
bond of contractor to be executed
and returned. When approved, he
will be commissioned and the mail
facilities Of this place will thus be-
come permanent.
We hear that line is to be es-
tablished from Santa Maria by
way of the Wells ranch and on to
the north, intersecting the Texas
Mexican Il. r. somewhere above
Alice. 1t would be much better to
extend the line from Tiocano, as it
is not probable thai the depart
ment will be willing to establish
so many short extensions. The
payment of the costs would be far
more than the earnings of the lines

THE PEDDLER NUISANCE.
The peddIers we have always
with us-happy and welI-favOred
lot that they are. They do not have
to pay tax or license, but let any
one open a little store and they
will soon have the assessor and col
lector to appease.
Will someone acquainted with
the laws ofsthis state explain why
one part of its citizens are made to
pay taxes and licenses, while an
other part, although following an
occupation, that demands higher
license, are allowed to continue a
more lucrative business without
license. Being of an inquiring
mind, l just ask for information.
There are many persons from
Mexico coming here to peddle their
wares. notice they are all careful
to stay below the line that divides
Cameron and Hidalgo counties. Is
it because the officers are more
vigilant in HidaIgo7 Or is there
different law in that county?

railway property. Here is report of
remarks made by Governor Shaw at
one of the sessions:
Are there any representatives of
The people to be heard?' asked Cover
nor Shaw, at the conclusion of the
nearing OF representatives of the rail
roadS before the executive council
lhere was no response.

governor continued, that in all the
length and breadth of the state there
IS not one who Is not railroad man

ment OF the railroad property"
The Clinton Herald, whose editor,
Mr.. Brant. is an avowed candidate for
the republican nomination for lieuten-
ant-governor, appropriately comment
ed upon this. He wrote:
"Yes, there are representatives of

is conferred, the act of the council in
assessing railway property at less
than one-ninth while other property
is assessed at one-fourth its actual
value is utterly indefensible. 1t is a
wanton violation of the principle of
equality, and it proves that the four

Nebraska Redeemed" !"

This was the startling head line in
all the republican papers after the
election last fall. A few of the def
nltions cleaned from the lexicons will
be of interest just now.
Redeem" to buy, ordinary language
to repurchase. to buy back.
"Redeemable" purchasable.
Redemption" repurchase.
Redeemed" purchased.
Now the trouble about the matter
seems to have been that Nebraska
had too many redeemcrs, j. e. too
many purchasers. The purchasers
we're the G. B. & Q. Railway. the Elk
norm, and the Union Pacific railroads.
The interest of the purchasers
centered in the election of United
States senators, about which the ssre-
deemers" were unable to agree, as the
interest of each "redeemern is to
some extent antagonistic of each of
the other "redeemers" that is pur-
chasers of the state.
The railroads finally agreed upon
two men for senat tors from Nebraska.
