Some idea of one of the causes which
delay windpammers may be gathered
from the experience of the Am. blk.
Charmer, which arrived recently at
San Francisco after the long passage
OF Ill days from Newcastle, N. S. w.
The Charmer left Newcastle May z,
with a cargo of 1926 tons of coal, Fine
weather was experienced until the lati-
tude of Honolulu was reached, when
the winds dropped to zephers and the
bark lolled in the Gains, the rudder
banging and the sails tapping idly.
From July until August II the Char
mer made only 425 miles. Two days
off San Francisco she had strong north
west gales which hustled her on into
the harbor.

Guy Adams, superintendent of the
mail service on the Rock Island
Frisco and Trinity and Brazos Val

Chicago; H. T. Mason, travelling
agent of the mail department of the
same lines; T. A. Wickersham, gen.
eral agent, and number of the
board of directors of the Chesapeake
and Beach Railway company, with
Headquarters at Washington, D. G.,
and f. II. Dallas, chief clerk to Har-
ry p Bronson of the Trinity and
Brazos Valley line, arrived in Hous-
ton Monday night at O'Clock from
Dallas.
The party spent several days in
North Texas before coming south,
the object of the trip being to look
generally into the conditions of the
railway mail service and to suggest
any changes that may be deemed
necessary for the improvement of
that service.
An inspection of the Trinity and
BraZos Valley mail service was made
on the way to Houston.
In Houston yesterday morning a
conference was held in the Office Of
the Trinity and Brazos Valley road,
at which many routine mail matters
were discussed. These were not of
sufficient interest, it was stated, to
be given to the public, as no definite
changes had yet been agreed upon.
After the conference the party
took in points of interest in Houston
via the automobile route, and eX-
pressed themselves as wildly i'm
pressed with the extent and growth
of the city.
The party left for Galveston at
/: 40 on the Santa Fe, returning to
Houston last night. They will leave
at 9:45 this morning for an inspec-
ton of the Beaumont, Sour Lake and
Western line. Mr.. Dallas will remain
in Houston. Houston Post.

CAUSES DEBILITY.
Here Are Facts Backed Up by
Strong Guarantee.

Here Are Facts BACKED Up Dy Is
Strong Guarantee.
Debility is caused by catarrh. In
our opinion, person free from Ca
tarrh was never troubled with debil-
ity. Debility can ever be cured by
medicine not designed to cure Ca
tarrh. We positively guarantee to
cure Catarrh, and thus cure debility.
In every case where we fail to erect
a cure. we will not charge cent for
the medicine employed during the
trial Now, surely no one should hes
itate to believe us or to put our claim
to a practical test under such condi-
lions. We take all the risk; no one
else can lose anything by the trans
action.
We make these statements and
this offer because we know and have
time ard again proved that Rexall
Mucu-Tone will cure Catarrh. 1t is
designed for that one particular pur-
pose. 1t is not a cure-all prescribed
to cure every disease that flesh is
heir to- 1t is specific. RexaH Mncu-
Tone is absorbed in the stomach and
carried by the blood until it pene-
trates every part of the body, acting
as an antiseptic, disinfecting, clean
sing, soothing and healing agent. 1t
rids the system of all germs and poi
sonous matter, purifics and enriches
the blood, rebuilds injured tissues,
cleanses and invigorates the muco-
cells, neutraliZes the acids of the
body, stops mucus discharge, tones
up the entire system, promotes nu-
triton, increases body weight. and
brings about feeling of healthful-
ness that is lasting.
We have Rexall MucuTone in two
sizes. Prices soc and 500. We urge
you to try a bottle on our guaran-

THE SITUATION IN TEXAS.


and the anti-prohibitionists are hon
est when they say that the question
which divides them is to be kept out
of politics.
But they are mistaken, as they
will discover. Whatever goes to the
ballot box is political Behind every
policy must be party These state
ments can be supported by innum-
cradle instances, says the Waco
Times-Herald
An effort was made to keep the
slavery question out of politics, but
that issue created the republican
party.
1t would seem that an economic
question like the tariff could be con-
sidered outside of party lines, but
the contrary is true.
And so with this prohibition ques-
ton it is purely political and back
of every political consideration is a
party.
Already the question has entered
the party organizations in this state.
The prohibitionists have captured
the democratic party.
The anti-prohibitionists are in
charge of the republican party
An anti-prohibition convention
was held this week in Houston, the
delegates coming from all parties.
But this is as it was when the
slavery question was uppermost
men were reluctant to break with
old alignments.
But Jake VOTERS and Rienzi
! Johnston viii ultimately have to
| swallow prohibition or quit the dem
| ocratic party.
OF course, it is possible for them
to rescue the party organization from
! the hands of the prohibitionists, but
that doesn't seem likely.
And if they do---if they swing
| democracy away from prohibition
then Sterling Strong and Eugene
| Williams will have to take up their
beds and walk or admit themselves
| wrong on this question.
But some one will tell us that the
| issue isn't permanent-tha it will
soon pass.
| That is another mistake.
The prohibitionists have been
working in Texas for twenty years
and they are today sufficiently strong
to make an aggressive fight not for
one day only but for every day
The anti-prohibitionists flatter
ponents next year will end the mat
| ter for another twenty years, over
! looking the fact that the infant of
| twenty years ago is now full grown,
attested by what took place at San
Antonio.

Lyon, the one a democrat and the

INTERESTING TALK ON
LAND, LABOR, WEALTH

Prof Lee Francis Lybarger, Of Phil
adelphia, an authority on economic
questions, delivered an address on
Land. labor and wealth" In the
Church OF Our Father Monday even
ing. Prof. Lybarger maintained that
along with the accumulation OF wealth
there must necessarily be an Empower
ishment. That TO make one man a
millionaire, thousand people must be
made poor. To prove this he cited an
instance in the history of this coun
try as follows: When the popula
ton OF the United States was $4,000
the national wealth was estimated "a
be $65,000,000. This left 81 900 for ey-
cry man, woman and child In the coun
try, consequently for one man 10 pos
sess a million dollars II was necessary
that 1000 OF the population should be
come poverty-stricken.
Statistics have proven that only 81
per cent OF the people In this country
own homes free from debt. That Is per
cent possess homes that are mort
gagged. and that 81 per cent have nc
claim to anything like a home.

STEVENS REVEALS
BARGE CANAL
SCANDAL
IN REPORT SAYS ne BELIEVES
s22, ooo, 900 OF CONTRACTS FOR
STATE WATERWAY WERE UN-
LAWFULLY LET.

+ ALBANY, Jan. 21.-A new state
canal sensation is let loose In the re-
port OF f. c. Stevens, state superin-
tendent OF public works. sent TO the
legislature. He severely criticises the
management of barge canal affairs in
the administration of Gov. Higgins.
He questions the validity OF all OF the
$22.342,27 OF contracts let principally
while Supt. N. V. V. Francnot and
State Engineer Henry A. Van Alstyne
were In Office. Letting OF these con-
tracts by piecemeal, without compre-
hensive plan for the work. has caused
great delay, he declares, and he init
mates that the cost of the work will
exceed the SOL 100000 fund voted for
1t, In consequence of "shortsighted
business policy"
Democrats say that the consequences
OF the report will be far reaching in
politics. Champions OF the barge
canal have been exceedingly FESTIVE
because of the slow progress made.
and are ready TO take advantage OF
the criticism by Mr.. Stevens. Further
more It will increase the bitterness
between the Stevens and Wadsworth
factions In western New York. An
attack on the contracts that have been
let. many TO persons associated with
the old Higgins machine, Will tend TO
widen the breach in the Republican
party
