The possibility of a national strike among railroad employees is anything but pleasant outlook in the business world at the present time. 1t is time that a special commission was appointed for the settlement of questions of this character. A fight of this kind does not only injure the fighters but every interest in the country big or little. It isn't question of the right or wrong of either side but the unavoidable wrongs to the general public, and the people are the greatest loosers-every time.

MONDAY. MARCH %, 1903.
THE TARPoN ARE HERE.

The tarpon have heard that spring
has come to stay on the Texas Gulf
Coast. Already these shining beau
ties are beginning to run into the
beautiful bay of Laguna Madre, and
fishermen are dropping into the pic
turesque seaside village of Point Isa-
bel to enjoy the sport of capturing
them. The silver king is a warmth
loving creature. Winter always finds
him sheltering in the warm bays of
tropic coasts. but when spring yomes,
following some law of his nature
which perhaps demands a change of
water and climate at this season, he
migrates to the higher bays of the
coast as the waters there grow warm.
Laguna Madre at Tarpon Beach and
Isabel is the first Texas bay visited
by the tarpon in early spring and
these waters are already becom-
ing famous as a resort for tarpon
fishers.
