Contracts Let for Much Concrete
Work-Episcopal Cemetery
To Be Moved.

The regular January meeting of the
city council was held at the city hall
at s o'clock last night, with Mayor
Maloney presiding and all the alder
men present. The minutes of the two
previous meetings were read and ap-
proved.
The cemetery committee reported
that the action of City Sexton Spell
with regard to colored burials had
been approved.
All audited bills by the proper COM
mittees were ordered paid.
The committee on extending the wa
ter mains to Allen Academy reported
that one car Of pipe had arrived and
would be distributed along the route
today, and that work on same would
begin at once.
The committee on test well reported
that the well had been sunk the con-
tract depth, 500 feet, and would be
tested today and report made to the
next meeting.
An ordinance was introduced per-
hitting the removal of the Episcopal
cemetery to become effective at once.
After discussion the ordinance was
passed.
1t was ordered that Pat Wallace
be given the contract for the Main
street concrete crossings TO be built
according to plans and specifications

The City National Bank proposed to
pay one-half the expense of walk

the city would pay the other half. 1t
was ordered done, and Mr.. Wallace
was also given this contract.
A motion was made that concrete
walks be made from the Eastside
school grounds to property across the
surrounding streets. Mr.. Wallace was
given the work.
A motion prevailed fixing the tax
rate the same as last year.

THE MARKETS
COTTON.

The English market opened and
closed today about three and one-half
points up, which was about as due,
The American markets opened prac-
tically unchanged, ruled very narrow
during the halliday session and closed
few points under last nights figures.
The weeks business closes very little
changed and there have been no spe-
cial features except the ginners' re-
port of last Tuesday. The English
spinners continue to report a good
business, which, if it continues, the
present crop will not meet the require
Iments. There is well defined opin-
ion among the cotton talent that Mr..
Scales, the Texas bull, is in the saddle
again, and If this is true we are likely
to see some large transactions in the
market, as this big operator is recog.
nized as the greatest power in the
trade.
Spot cotton has not declined in pro.
portion to futures and there still con-
tinues demand for spots at II LAC,

quitting the earth at Dallas Monday.

combined efforts of a dozen men to
hold it down and keep the governor
from going up in the air. In spite
of its handicap the machine dragged
its precious burden the full length Of

The victory of the ants in the sen.

was due TO the fact that the pro
leaders had taken an untenable posi-.
ton. To attempt to block the inaugu-
ration of governor duly and consti-
tutionally elected would be a high
handed revolutionary proceeding and
would not be tolerated by law-abiding

so legally and fairly, but the people of

WHY NOT ALL BE REPUBLICANS?

The Eagle is democratic news

ing the doctrine as taught by the old
time democratic fathers, but the ex-

this suggestion in contravention Of

not a man in Brazos county who is

If every man in Brazos is benefited

true there is no excuse for the exist
