BRowNsvILLE,s RAILROADS
The San Antonio Express at Last
Looks at the Situation
nationally.

Now that the bonus asked of the
city of Brownsville and the dona-
tons along the route all the way to
the starting point on the line OF
the Texas & Mexican Railroad have
been secured, the immediate con-
struction of the St. Louis, Browns
vile & Mexico Railroad seems to
be assured.
1t is stated that the preliminary
surveys have been completed and
that grading outfits are en- route to
the point of beginning, so that the
actual work of construction should
be under way before the end of
next week.
1t is we'll understood that the
country to be traversed by the new
road presents very few obstacles to
speedy railroad construction. The
country being level, there will be
no heavy grades or cuts and
practically no engineering Difficult
ties. There are few streams to cross
and these will not entail any very
great expense in the matter of
bridging, wherefore it may be as
sumed that construction can be
pushed rapidly and the road COM
pleted within the time prescribed.
If pushed with the vigor and en-
terprise which may reasonably be
expected, considering the we'll
known character of the gentlemen
actively engaged in the enterprise,
the road may be completed and in
operation in less than a year from
now.
AS we understand the position OF
the San Antonio & Arkansas Pass
Railway in relation TO the Browns
vile extension from Alice, the con-
truction of the other road will in
nowise effect the agreement as to
the extension of the Sap. The effect
will rather be to hasten preparations
and to cause the Sap to use greater
energy than otherwise might be
displayed to have its new line CON-
pleted and in operation with the
least possible delay. 1t will, OF
course, be thought desirable to be
first in the field for the business of
that new territory and the COM
petition in the matter of construc-
ton may be quite as active as that
which will be shown after the com
peting lines are in operation for
freight and passenger business.
To San Antonio merchants and
business men the opening up of
new trade territory which will
develop and rapidly enhance in
value is matter of deep interest.
Rival business centers will bequick
to cultivate that field and to claim
supremacy therein if there should
be any lack Of enterprise and push
on the part of San Antonio. 1t will
not do to sleep on opportunities

THE TROUBLE OF
FREEHOLDERS.

In commenting on the recent trag-
sdy in Austin, the Statesman says:
Many a man is in embarrassed con-
dition in Austin and elsewhere in
the State because of the fact that a
new administration has left them
without employment No blame
for this can attach to any man, for
custom and usuage has been mex
Orable in its demands that place be
given to the partisan who aided in
winning victory for his chief. The
individual official cannot be blamed;
but the people can and must be and
are blamed for permitting this
condition of affairs.
The offices belong to the people.
The subordinate places are created
IN the service of the public. When a
man is given one of these places it
should be because of fitness for its
duties, and the law should provide
that he should retain that place
during good behavior.
A man comes to Austin with the
notion that a salary of So to 500
5 month is a bonanza. He finds
living expensive demands upon him
require money, and it is not long
antil he finds that it would have
been better for him had he never
left his home. Then grows the un-
certainty of his tenure of office.
When all too soon he loses his place
be has become untitled by reason of
worry over what was to happen and
bis having lost the associations
which made him strong before going
INTO State service, and he faces the
problem of earninga livelihood with
depleted confidence and assurance
which are so necessary to success.
Civil service in State employment
will cure these ills. Civil service
aust therefore be adopted. No occur
renee could possibly have impressed
Ibis necessity so emphatically upon
the people as the terrible story of
yesterdays tragedy at the capitol.
While some people of merit re-
ceive the credit due them, the major
ity prefer cash.
