cott-for refusing to purchase an
unfair product, or advising others
to do the same-it is worth not
ing, in contrast, that the highest

Germany recently handed down a
decision declaring that the people
had moral and LEGAL right to
withhold their patronage from
whomsoever they pleased.
The case came up in Berlin,
where landlord refused to rent
"a large hall to the socialists for

Organization and trades unions de-
clared a boycott against the land
lord, and he suffered heavy finan-

ize or not to patronize any con-
Germ, and that the judiciary had

LINE TO SOUTHWEST TEXAS.
One Plan Is to Build from Gid
dinoS tn Stone Civ.

CHICAGO, March 2.-Advices from
Texas since the visit of President
Lovett and other officials Of the Har-
riman lines on their tour of inspection
state that the encouragement of the
State has been called upon for a copy
of the trackage contract between the
Katy and the Trinity and Brazos VAL
ley for the joint use of track between
Waxahachie and Dallas.
The object is to make 1t the model
Cor the contract which the Southern
Pacific made with the A kansas Pass
for a like arrangement from Flatonla
to either Giddings or Cameron.
This is interpreted as ~evidencing an
intention upon the part of the South
ern Pacific to shorten its line from
North Texas to the southwestern part
of the State. and confirms the general
understanding that this is to be done,
though In just what way has been a
matter of uncertainty. It Is of sig
n~ificance that the contract called for
has been upheld in all points by the
Supreme Court.
It is said that the Southern Pacific
has two propositions under considera-
ton. One. understood to meet with the
most favor. is to build from Giddings
to Stone City on the Brazos river. the
present terminus of the Hearne and
Brazos Valley Line. The second prop
osition referred t contemplates the
building OF q line from Cameron &c
Bremond or some other point on tbs
