GALVEsToN's BONDS.
New York Holders Will Not Agree to
 Refundine of the Issues.

New York, Nov. 26.-Charles s. Fair child. President of the New York Secur- ity and Trust Company, and chairman of the Galveston, Texas, bondholders' committee, wrote to the authorities of Galveston recently stating that holders of the city bonds could not consider the proposed substitution of new bonds of a lower interest rate and that the com mittee could negotiate only as to the par tial postponement of interest upon, the present bonds The Galveston committee Is reported to have replied to this with some chagrin. The Galveston committee added that "an erroneous impression as to the extent of the loss Galveston city has suffered" was pro bably responsible for the apparent attitude of the local ondholders. A meeting of the two com mittees will be held here December II.

The Birmingham Ledger makes the fol- lowing venture into the unknown:
 When D,SJtO made that wonderful ex- petition through Alabama he and his lit- tie my went to M bile, called Mauviila, and fought great battle there and burn ed the Indian town. The town that then existed was not on the same spot as the present Mobile, neither was Blenvilles 8 Mobile exactly where this one is. but they were all Mobile, and the fact that a town has moved about little does not destroy it's identity. All were the same town on or near Mobile Bay.
 The Ledger's latitude is faulty It is doubtful if DeSoto was ever within one hundred miles of the present city of Mo- bile, Mauvilla was not on either Mobile Bay or Mobile River. Mobiles site has moved about a little" no doubt. but because it's name was derived from Mau- villa is no evidence that they were ever near each other. Birmingham was named for the great manufacturing city in Eng IAad. don't you see3

THE WAY IT WORKS.
Discussing the subject of prohibition The Leavenworth Times says:

Discussing the subject of prohibition The Leavenworth Times says;
 The railroads and corporations have done more to make men cut out the liquor than all the prohibitory laws ever passed in Kansas or elsewhere. Freaks like Car rie have nothing to do with it. Many a man has been bowling drunk just because she happened to stop off in his town and make show of herself.
 On the same line The Savannah News remarks:
 So. in the case of the blind tigers in the prohibition counties, the desire for whiskey is greater because 1t is forbid den fruit and because it is forbidden the profit of selling it is greater, and, hence, the q, sire of the dram-drinker and the cupidity of the dram-seller combine and we have the blind tiger
 Our contemporaries are both right be- yond doubt. When a man is running a blind tiger it matters not how mean his liduor is, or how high his prices, he knows his customers are not likely to "sdueal," and that he will not be held to very strict account, either on account of the price or the quality of his stuff Not only that, but the fact that he lives under constant fear of detection and punishment naturally causes him to be more grasping and conscienceless than he would be if he were conducting legiti- mate business. He must make large profits in order 10 have something to pay with If he gets caught.
 And the same sense of greed and desire to get the worth of his money bears on the man who slips into d place of this l character to appease his thirst, The dlfi- | oulty of procuring liquor and tn proba- bility that he may not get another chance at 1t causes him to take more than is
