COMMITTEE MEETS
Citizens Interested in Railroad Pro-
position Discuss Situation.

The Light wishes that every citi-
zen in Waxahache could have wit
messed a scene that took place last
night in the directors room at the
Citizens National Bank. There for
more than two hours about twenty
OF the most enterprising citizens of
the town were engaged in q discus
sion of the Trinity and BRACES Valley
proposition, which was recently sub
nitted ip writing by Col Sweeney,
When this document was filed with
the committee by Col Sweeney he
called attention 10 the fact that Col,
Yoakum and other high officials of
the road had been opposed to the
road coming TO Waxahachie. but as
a majority OF the directors favored
this route the proposition was still
omen to Waxahaohie All that is re-
quired is sum sufficient to pur-
chase the right OF way through the
eity, and unless this amount is raised
the road will be lost. Since the sub
mission of the written proposition T.

gone over the proposed right OF way
and discussed the matter with the
owners of the property over which
the survey passes The entire com
mittee was present at last nights
meeting, and the situation was dis
cussed In all its phases After care
full investigation of the matter some
members OF the committee expressed
the hope that the road could yet be
secured by every citizen of the town
doing his part Many who have been
frequently solicited have as vet sign
ed nothing toward the bonus, while
others who at first refused have
come across with their pro rata One
more heroic effort will be made and

EVERYBODY WILL BE MADE HAPPY
 WHEN CONGRESS MEETS AGAIN


An American who recently held high place in the government of Porto Rico says the people of that island want neither statehood TOT nde pendence All that they seek, he says, is an elective upper house in its legislature. They have elective lower chamber already, so that the extension of the elective principle to the other branch would give them fair share of home rule. This ought to be easy to grant
 Porto Rico is represented at Washington by a commissioner " ho makes known the wants of his constituents, and who has influence ill melting legislation. The island has not full territorial government, but comes very that status. It has been reported that the islanders wanted the complete territorial regime to be placed a step nearer to statehood, but the American ex-official just referred to says state hood is not desired. They have larger hold on their revenues now than they would have under a state government. The elective upper house cf their legislature would give them all the privileges which they desire at this stage of things If this be SO congress ought to be able to satisfy the Porto Ricans at it's next session.
 There is a strong desire among Americans to please the people of Porto Rico where this can be dcne without injury to the United States oI to Psrto Rico. The islanders rallied to the United states in the spanish war of 1898 prompt ly. although they had not been in rtbeliior against sI ain, and had not found serious fault with the spanish regime, far as the Ameri- cans had learned No thought was giyen to Porto Rico a- possible spoil Of war at the time hosttlitie~ began. Not one American m ten at thc declaration ofwat ever supposed that Porto Rico W ould clme under the flag That island wa. overlooked iu the excitement It's people, however welcomed the American troops when they landed in Porto Rico ncar the close of hos- tjutte. and they gavo DO trouble to the country aftcfvard.

That Valdez mass meetings demand that Alaska be annexed to Canada was only little flourish, intended to call the United States at tention ill striking way to the sights which Alaska has suffered at the neglect of congress. Alaska has, for years past, been asking for terri torial government. She wants delegate in congress- such as Oklahoma, Arizora, New Mexico and Hawaii have. Congress has denied this request
 his is the reason why that gathering at Valdez sent telegram to the president asking for annexation 10 Canada. According to the resolutions passed by that meeting, there are 60 900 American citizens ill Alaska. Undoubt- tdly the population of that region is growing rapidly. Its expansion at the present time is particularly great. The recent gold discoveries al Nome and elstv here ill AmeriCa's big north ern colony are sending people into that quarter i'll large numbers. The region is rich ill min erals oi all sorts, in timber, in fur and in fish. It's agricultural atd stock raising capabilities, too. are believed to be high. Yet congress per sists in keeping 1t in ome thing like what would be called the crown colony stage in the British system.
 Alaska has been badly used by Congress II has been part of the United states possessions for much more than @ third Of a century, and yet it's government, or lack uf government IS in the most rudimCntary stage. No other people under the American dag have a, few privileges except those Of the Philippines. and in some respects the filipino> are better treated by the American government. Tti, of course. Is iu- excusahic There are tens ct thousands uf per sons in Alaska whu have tmisfated tu that re- gion from thc various ,tates and they have thus io-t nearly an the political privileges to which they had been accustomed alI thcjr lives This neglect Cu congress part ot very important section of thr country deserves tlt thc cundt u- nation w hieh the Nit.kuus have hurled against tt.

The Advance
 of "Wire1eSS. "

oOlue very lltClSStlliS ldStS SOl- ceining the state of development of wireless telegraphy are given by Eugene P. Lyle in The World $ Work. He says:
 Wireless telegraphy is already making a commercial success. Go, if you wish, to the nearest telegraph station, and thence you may communicate with a friend on almost any trans sAtantic liner on the h ;gh seas. The service will cost you, exclusive of land tolls E for ten words. Or you may send your friend money, or give notice of legal action against him, or play a game of chess with him. And you might reach him similarly from Canada or Englaud, or from another steamship. The United States, Great Britain. France, Italy, Ger many, Holland and Belgium, and Lloyds and the British Admiralty, all have steamship lines carrying Marconi install lations. Tn all, about 100 vessels are equipped. The Atlantic Ocean is charted into squares, and since every ship is con stantly i'll range of communication from land and from other ships, 1t can be located at any moment and rung up to take a message. Moreover, every vessel is reported hours before her arrival ill port.
 Newspapers printed on the steamships contain wireless messages. The Cunard Daily Bulletin appears every morning on every ship of the Cunard Line, alongside of every passengers plate at breakfast The dispatches are labeled "Marconi grams-direct to the ship" On one day the column of news is headed Received from the Marconi station at Poldhu England, 2So miles from Liverpool"; next day the head is changed to this: Latest news received from the Marcou station at Poldhu, England'; the third day the distance is I,4oo miles. The fourth day Cape Cod is picked up, Eng land is cut off, and the head reads: Latest news through the Associated Press of New York, received from the Marconi station at Cape Cod, distance I ,o0o miles.
 It is from the news service that the men interested ill the Marconi sys- tenn hope for rewards, and, incidentally, the steamship companies which publish the paper secure profits for railroad, hotel and summer resort advertisements The present news rate to ships is 25 cents word. But even at a fifth of this large yearly profit is possible.
 There are wireless newspapers on land also. Towns on islands not important enough for cables depend on wireless messages for their news dispatches. The Post-Dispatch at St. Louis and La Prcsse in Montreal have been receiving the De Forest service. A land newspaper in Amsterdam takes the London stock mar ket exchange reports by the Marconi system. Even the London Times has publishe wireless messages. Last years yacht races were reported by wireless.
 Of course. as au aid iu navigation the value of wireless telegraphy would hc hatd to over-estimate. Two great ships approaching m fog can uow waru each other of A number of ships have
