realized until then how thoroughly

strain Of continued peril, and the long
abstinence from food had Slapped their

were meant certain death; all hope
found its center amid those distant

Population Of Rome.

According to the last general census
OF 1901 the resident population OF the
whole province of Rome was estimated
at 1,142, 500, and the %fiuctuating popu-

The increase since the annexation Of
Rome to the Italian kingdom in 1871
has been very considerable. AT that

amounted to only S36, 704. SO that within

THE EAGLE AND THE CONNER.
cIAl SECRETARIES.

Commenting on an editorial of the
Eagle in regard to the lack of frank
ness on the part of the commercial
secretaries association in regard TO
the campaign for fewer laws and bet.
ter laws" the Beaumont Enterprise
says: 'lnasmuch as the Commercial
Secretaries have flooded the state
with their literature telling of their
hopes and plans, and have called
meetings in various parts of the state
at which men OF every rank and call
ing are urged to appear and state
their ideas, 1t is hard to see what
more can be done. The com.
mercial secretaries have not set up
as directors Of policy, but merely fur
nish a vehicle by which the people
themselves may get together on plans
for the advancement of the state. One
of these meetings is to be held in Gal
weston next Monday, and any man in
the StdlC vi ACAaS 10 pIiNIcbC0 W 81
there and make his thoughts on the
state betterment known. and the more
that go the truer will the state senti-
ment be expressed"
The Eagle has seen some of this
literature but is not yet convinced
that there is no bug under the chip.
The commercial secretaries are the
compliments and II is manifestly
their duty TO dictate" or say
plainly what are the evils they com.
plain Of and to suggest remedies. AS
yet they have not done this; their &C
cusations against Governor Campbell
and the Thirtieth legislature amount
only to a charge of general cussed.
