THE DEEP WELL.
Prospect OF Striking Flow Of Water
Becoming More ENCOURAGING.

N1otV HtuSouI X.
The prospects for striking an
abundance of water in the city's
well are just now little more en-
couraging than they have been for
some time. Henry Franks, who has
charge of the work at the we'll, stat
days the drill had been at work in
alternate layers of rock and shale.
On account of the great depth of the
well work necessarily progresses
slowly. Mr.. Frank is an experienced
| we'll man, and he feels hopeful tina
1 a plentiful supply of water will b.
| struck by the time the drill goe
about two hundred feet deeper Th<
depth Of the well is now 1865 feet.
this well but he is not yet discour-
aged He believes that if the city
will provide the funds to keep the
work going that success will ulti-
mately come. He doesn't think 1t
will be necessary to expend all of
the funds to be realized from the
second issue of bonds, provided the
proposition carries in the election next
Tuesday. He gave it as his opinion
that the additional $40, 900 would be
more than enough to complete the
we'll. The city has already spent
nearly $4,000 on the well. and ac
cording to Mr.. Franks the citizens
of Waxahachie cannot afford for the
work to be abandoned at this stage
of the proposition.

CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR.
J. &. LOwden Was Member OF Cam
paign Flying Squadron.

J. G. Lowden of Abilene. who was
tried and sentenced to five years in
prison in the federal court at Abb
lene Saturday was the republican
nominee for governor two years ago.
The campaign which the flying
squadron of republican candidates
made at that time. under the di-
rection of Cecil Lyon, is well remem-
bered The principal issue raised
by Mr. Lowden and associates on the
ticket was that the democratic ad-
ministration of state affairs was
overrun with graft. AT that time
Mr.. Lowden was looked upon as one
of the wealthiest and most honest
citizens OF Western Texas.

IONGVIEW ~ ELATED.
Santa Ec May Have Another Line
To the Gulf.

According to advice from Long
view the citizens of that city are
much elated at the purchase by the
Santa Fe of what is known as the
Texas and Gulf line. which piece of
road extends southwest from Long
view II is believed that the Santa
t'e intends to build the line on from
Longview northwest to Ladonia and
Whitewright and the present tap
running from the main line Will then
be extended on to a Connection with
the tap line which runs into Tulsa,

The building of this line would
give the Santa Fe another almost
straight line to the Gulf and would
also open up rich new territory.

She was kind and obedient, and loved by all who knew her. Sslie wes too precions a jewel to be trusted longer to earthly hands, and He who doeth all things well has given her setting around His great white throne, to await your coming. Look, up, dear moth CT, sisters and brothers, you have greater claims on Heaven, and how sweet to think you can go to her. She is not dead; but sleepeth with Jesus.

The Russian Situation.

Russia continues to occupy the center of the stage. The attack and capture of Syeaborg came like T clap of thunder in clear sky. This was no doubt due to the fact that much has been going on in Russia beneath the surface, of which the public knows nothing. Russia is a very large and un- homogeneous country. T h e Caucasus, for instance, is about as different from Finland as Red Indian of the plains is from the cornetist of German orchestra. The city of Tifiis is wasp's nest. Bokhara is sort of mysterious forbidden territory. Irkutsk IS q city of contrasts, as placid as 8 summer sigh in the day time, but filled with all sorts of perils at night. Moscow, the Holy City, IS utterly diverse from St. Peters burg, the cold white city that the great czar built amid the frozen solitudes of the North.
 Naturally the people in such a country cannot be homogeneous. But this fact contributes at least as much to the bringing or of the revolution as it does to solidifying the foundations of the throne. The oo,ooo, ,ooo peasants have been the bulwark of czardom because of their ignorance and their supersti tion; but they have in recent years discovered that the czar's influence and power do not protect them from the famine. They have be- gun to learn a few things with the result they are ripe for revolt. The army, of course, is mainly recruited from this source, and when once it becomes saturated with discontent, the autocracy will disappear like "the baseless faLric of a vision.' There are several discordant and dangerous elements
 
 in Russia. Finland may veil but she will never forget her wrongs. The flair land of Poland" can never cease to remember her ancient glories or the evils inflicted
