THE INTERURBAN PROSPECT.

The clouds that have obscured
the interurban proposition for the
past few weeks are beginning TO rift,
letting through some light, Pending
action by those who may have prop
erty along the several lines surveyed
in the matter of providing a right
of-way the promoters of the Dallas
Waxahachie line are holding back
their decision as to just which route
will be taken, but the activity of the
people on at least one of the survey
ed lines justifies the conclusion that
the right-of-way arrangements will,
in few days, be so far progressed
as to remove the necessity of longer
delaying the designation of the
route.
The advantages to be derived from
the building of an interurban line, in
50 far as such a line would be of
benefit to the property owners along
it's route, are beginning to be more
fully understood by the people, and
genuine activity is taking the place
of former Indifference. Waxahachie

THE PROSPECT FOR GAS.

A franchise Mas been granted by
the city, through its city council, to
gas company, by the terms of
which it is agreed upon the part of
the promoters to install, equip, main
tain and operate a gas plant in Wax
ahachie, work to begin within few
months after the acceptance of the
franchise by the promoting company
and the plant to be in operation with
in fifteen months after such accept
ance There is certain amount of
vagueness in every proposition sub
mtted by a promoting company and
while this proposed gas plant is no
exception to the general rule the
gentleman representing the propo-
sition does not bear the marks of
fakir, neither is his record for past
successes and honesty of purpose
against him. For these reasons the
Light is inclined to believe that
there is at least a prospect of the
carving out of the proposition on
which the gas franchise is based
That Whxahachie is sadly in need OF
such an enterprise there can be no
question. AS a means of effecting a
general saving to the people there
could perhaps, be suggested no oth-
er proposition that would give to the
people so wide a range of benefit and
so general a relief. For years Waxa-
hachie has been a grazing ground
that has furnished most protitaf!e
picking to those who have had their
feet upon the necks of the peop'",
and any proposition that offers to
lift the city out of this state of hon
dage must be accepted by the people
as almost a godsend. The Light does
not pretend to declare that this Ia
est proposition will result different
ly from other similar propositions OF
the past but We do know that If this
promoting firm means business they
will be welcomed and encouraged by
practically all the citizens.

Popular Conception Of the

Arms from the United

Associated Press Special.

Baltimore, May 5.-James l..
| Texas, devoted his address at the
| Third National Peace Congress yes
terday to an attack on the popular
conception of the Monroe doctrine.
He declared that the impression of
the average American to the effect
| that it was the business of this
country to maintain form of pro-
tectorate over all American states,
to indicate Their foreign policies, to
| protect them from just punishment
for failure to fulfill their obligations
and to enter their internal differen-
ces and to send troops from this
country into their borders to force
the fullfilment of private obligations
! had done much to prejudice the
| South American countries against
| the United States. The United States
had no right, said Mr.. Slayden, to
prevent the colonization of foreign
ers in these states.
so far as / am advised" said Mr.
Slayden, ''the people of South Amer
lea do not want us to protect them
against the settlement of white Euro
peans on their unoccupied lands.
They do not believe that we have the
right to assert a policy that will re-
tard the development of their re-
sources and | must own that | think
their position is well taken.
Da;, -;I A
erican states is to let them alone,
only holding them to strict res
pect for the obligations of interna-
tional law.
The recent noisy and unjustified
demand for Intervention by our gov
eminent in the internal affairs of
Mexico is case in point. Tho gov
eminent of Mexico is not the govern
ment that we would like. But it is
the sort of government that the Mex
leans have set up for themselves and
its forms and facts are not our con-
Germ so long as international obliga-
tions are discharged.
