DIDN'T KILL IT.
Central Texas Fair a Little Disfigured,
But Locks too Good for the
Slaughter House Yet
Little While.

The directors Of the Central Texas
fair held a called meeting last night,
the purpose being to 60 about wind
ing up the affairs OF the corporation,
aud turning the property over to the
creditors. But after discussion, by
directors and others who dropped In
10 the meeting, IL was decided that
it would look So bad for the town 10
let this fine enterprise go TO pieces
for the lack Of small amount Of
money, that another chance will be
given the people Of Bryan to con
tribute something to keep It going.
some surprising statements were
made 10 the directors, about liberal
offers that have been made by the
various business men 10 keep the fair
going.
Contributions ranging from siO0
down 70 s25 were heard of all around
the town, and the directors now be-
lieve that the town Is going to take
the matter right up aud keep the
fair going. 80 mote 10 be-. We
await develol meuts II will look

this splendid enterprise Is aban-
doued.

Galveston. Now as the cotton

cotton is not 40 cents per 100
pounds, ls2. 45 per 500 pound bale)
which the commission has fixed a.
the rate, but 50 cents per hundred
pounds, or 81 IS for 500 pound
bale-3O cents more than it ought
to cost according to the commits
sion's rates, added simply for the
benefit of Houston. We do not
mind benefiting Houston, if it does
not est anything; but why the i'm
mense cotton crop Of Texas should
be compelled to pay about $3.50, 900
per annum for Houston's benefit,
and get nothing in return, we fail
10 see.
For these reasons it Mr.. Houx
will send W. some of his literature.
We will take pleasure in printing
some or all Of it, because it will
probably make clear a proposition
which we already believe in.
The Eagle is not here to use its
columns for money consideration,
IN support ofany proposition which
we do not endorse, and this il why
we turned down Mr.. Houx's propo.
sition to start on-because we did !
not know what it was.
This Houston Galveston differ
entail question, however, Is a mat
ter in which the cotton farmers Of
Texas are deeply interested, and if
they ever see the matter like the
E'gle gees it, they will raise rack
ct with the Texas railway commits
sioners that will put them out of
business ifjustice is not done, and
this "differential" abolished.

The Eagle received proposition
from Mr.. Houx of Mexia TO make
a contract for advertising, without
specification as TO what the adver-

il was something regarding reduc-
ton Of freight rates, in which the
farmers and business interests OF
Texas are interested. The propo-

when seen would be satisfactory TO
us.
1t now turns out that the matter

abolishing the Houston Galveston
differential on cotton.
To the Eagle the matter would
not be Objectionable So far as it.

have learned what it is, for we, like
