AT one Of the meetings OF the Negro

according to the newspaper reports,
pleaded for the Solidarity" OF tho

theory that the negro was only a

that he might be something else than

Willard has reached the conclusion at
last that the negro must be regarded
as thing apart from the rest of the
people of this country. II that is his
view, upon sober reelection, we have
both reached the view of Abraham

JUDGE CARTER
 GRANTS INJUNCTION

The application made by the city for an injunction to prevent the railroad from building a new depot in the center of Main Street was heard before Judge Garter at Texarkana yesterday. A temporary injunction was granted which prevents the rail road from erecting a adepot on the old site until next January. The city was required to give bond for $2, 300 to indemnify the railroad.
 The case was set for trial on the third Monday in January. As the matter now stands, the railroad cannot build a depot in the center of Main Street until this suit is decided, which will likely be year. The plans as drawn for the new building are for a building and platforms about 800 feet long to cost $20,. 000.0O. This cannot be built un less a street is closed. The rail. road agreed to move the building out of Main Street if Walnut Street could be closed. It was found that the city had no power to close a street so this location

could not be used. The railroad people say they cannot move the depot more than 300 feet without making a deep cut through the center of the town at an expense of about $40,000 which it will not undertake.
 If the city wins it's suit it will result ill forcing the railroad to build depot between two streets and as the distance is only 300 feet the railroad people ay they will be compelled to build small depot less than half the size of the onei it had arranged to build or continue to use the old one.
 The only hope or relief in case the city should be successful. would be for the legislature to authorize the closing of Walnut Street and for the city to pay damages, as the adjoining prop erty owners should recover.
