or was it $1O0,000-was expended
to stop a gentIemaniy prize fight
and cinch the election to.the Unit
ed States senate OF an ambitious
politician. Yet we are told that
the legislature can not be con-
veniently called in special session
to stop the death-dealing plague of
yellow fever, and if it were in ses-
sion and should appropriate few
thousand dollars for this humane
purpose, the governor might veto it
in the interest of economy!
DR.. Wolff has done all that was
in his power to prevent yellow
fever from reaching Brownsville.
The city government has exerted
its entire capacity and its officers
deserve the unanimous commenda-
ton of all the citizens. Mayor
Carson, Marshal Bates, the city
council and DR.. Layton, each and
all have been alert and vigilant
and their actions have been prompt
and effective within their spheres
in maintaining a quarantine.
Dr. Combe, the marine hospital
surgeon, has worked day and night
for two weeks and heroically thrown
himself into the breach in the In
terest of the local quarantine. But
unfortunately he too is restricted
in his action. United Consul
Griffith at Matamoros, has CO.
operated from the beginning with
ali other officials; none have in
terfered, but all have worked to-
gether in the interest of the com
mon welfare.
As result, very efficient local
quarantine is being kept up, but it
exceedingly expensive. 1t is
sting about $50 a day to main
in this quarantine. This is an
cessive tax on the resources OF
be local governments.
1t should not be SO imposed. The
State is the proper authority to
conduct this quarantine.
Just now the eyes Of all the COM
world are looking toward
Brownsville. This city and sur
rouDdin|country are awakening to
a new birth. The marvellous pos
sibilities of Industrial and com
mercial achievement in the Browns
vile country are being made known
in more widely extending area
each day Gradually but surely
the innumerable advantages which
the valley of the Rio Grande offers

turist, the florist, he merchant,
manufacturer and mechanic are
being realized in all parts OF tie
country, and men, ambitious IL

The valley of the lower Rio

The HERALD is still of the opin-
ion, and still afirnos, that if yellow
il er reaches Brownsville it will be
solely to carelessness. However,
Us only fair that We explain our
Ise of the term carelessness, for
There are extenuating circumstances.
It was carelessness on the part of
the State government, either through
the legislature in not appropriat-
ing or the governor in vetoing an
appropriation, providing ample
resources and executive latitude to
the State health officer for just such
emergencies as this yellow fever
epidemic.
THE HERALD is not prepared TO
say who is at fault, but it is too
plain to deny that somebody has

each Of the four corners pointing
at Excelsior school house for a
station site which is about half
way between Wellsville and Mid
dletown. j. II. McGlcary stated
yesterday that there was no ques-
tion but that the road would be
built and that construction work
would begin In y short while.
Rumors are ailoat that movc-
mcnt is being made to have the
electric line run direct from Fulton
to Montgomery and from here to
st. Charles aud there connect with
the Housman line.
We give below clippings from
other popers in regards to the two
different roads:
For some time the Burlington
and Alton roads have been con-
sidering plans forthc improvement
of their st. Louis-Kansas City
lines. Surveys and Investigations
have been going on for more than
n year, and after most careful
consideration IL has been decided
to make a joint line between st.
Louis and Kansas City by using
the Burlington's tracks from st.
Louis Union Station to Old Monroe
fifty-onc miles; by building from
Old Monroe to Mexico, on the
Alton, sixty-thrce miles, and using
the tracks of the Alton from Mex
leo to Kansas City, 1866 miles,
making total distance over the
proposed line 2S0 miles between
st. Louis and Kansas City, as
compared with distances via other
lines as follows: Wabash, 277
miles; Missouri Pacific, 3S3 miles.
The new road between Old Mon
roe and Mexico will be built,
owned and managed by the Burl-
ington Company. Under this plan
n good line between st. Louis and
Kansas City for fast passenger and
freight service Is obtained for both
the Alton and the Burlington with
out building duplicate lines, and
ut a minimum investment OF cap
ital. A good country, needing
railroad facilities, will be opened
up between Old Monroe and Mex
leo, and additional facilities furn-
ished for handling the business Of
the State of Missouri.
The line to be constructed will
have maximum grade Of ~ feet
to the mile and maximum curva-
turc of 1 degree, and this Is also
the maximum between st. Louis
and Old Monroe, except at one or
two points, where the curvation is
slightly in excess OF degree. A
line Of this character will permit
the furnishing to the public Of
fast service, both freight and pas
senger, with minimum Of delay
and danger.
Il is hoped the new line will be
completed and ready for business
by June 1, 1904, or in time to ham

Ninety per cent of the right-of-

road. The directorate will mold a

work should commence within the
