An exchange says that the Rev.
Sam Small who has been lecturing on
the prohibition side for some time was
SO drunk the other day he could not
fill his appointment. But he was
honest enough to acknowledge to the
corn juice. This is better than hav-
ing a jug of the stuff hid under the
bed and taking five pulls at it before
taking the stand to lecture on the
evils of intemperance. We hate a
fraud, anyhow, whether he is in a
drinking saloon or in the amen cor
ner Of the first church in the city.

The Galveston, Tex, News is
authority for the statement that at
one time when a prominent citizen of
a certain community died and when
the coffin lid was being screwed down
at the grave, the editor of the local
paper. to whom the deceased owed
fourteen years subscription, appeared
and revently deposited fan, linen
buster and a thermometer in the
coffin, which causes an exchange to
remark: "While editors, as a rule,
are not prosperous, they are always
kind and considerable. -

Did you ever get any thanks for
telling people of their faults? No,
and you never will. 1t becomes your
bounden duty sometimes but it always
has to be done as stern duty and not
with any hope of reward. The ten
dency of the world is to the man who
tells the truth and love the man who
lies. What a pity it is that men will
never learn that Jour friends tell us

With the Action of Council
and Orient
REGARDING RIGHT OF WAY
And Selection of Site for Pas
senger Depot.

The fact that the Kansas City. Mexico
and Orient Railway company desire to
build their passenger depot at the corner
OF William and fremont streets, has met
with the approval Of nearly every per
son in the city. as has also the action Of
the city council in granting the company
a right of way through the south part Of
the city and on Mosley avenue.
The granting of the right Of way came
as a surprise to the greater number Of
people in this city Very few had any
idea where the company wanted TO build
their tracks, and the question of how the
company would enter the city and where
their depot would be was often asked
Now that it is known. nearly everybody
is satisfied. The people did not want any
more streets torn up by railroads, if 1t
vas possible 10 prevent it. but they real
lied that the Orient being a transconti-
mental line, would be Of immense benefit
Il the city and would necessarily have to
use some street. They did not want any
Of the principal streets given TO them.
The company realized this state OF affairs
and placed their line where it would do
the least damage. The road crosses the
city one mile from the main thoroughfare.
it is far enough away from any Of the
main residence districts OF the city not to
carnage them, and for this reason the
people generally have stamped the mark
OF satisfaction on the action of the city
council.
The building of the depot at the corner
Of William and fremont streets has met
with very little objection. Some want the
company to build it's line up the alley
between Santa Fe and fremont, but all
want the depot on that corner. The ordi-
nance has not been granted as yet, but
none of the councilmen anticipate any OBJ
lection TO the passage of the ordinance
next Monday night. The depot at this
point will make it easily accessible from
all points of the city by means of the
street cars. All of the roads. with one
exception. will be within two blocks of
each other, and the railroad district Will
be but four blocks wide and all in one
section of the city. and in a section that
is now well built up with wholesale
houses and factories.
A reporter for the Eagle talked with a
number of men who are materially in
terested in that section of the city
through which it is proposed to run the
tracks, and without exception they said
that the depot and tracks had been To-
Gated so that it would do them the least
monetary damage.
All of the councilmen talked to about
the matter stated that their constituents
who had expressed an opinion indorsed
the action of the railway company in
selecting the route they did. and in the
council in granting them this route.
