Mr.. GLASSCOCK GRATIFIED.
ONE OF AUTHORS OF NEW IRRI-
CATION LAW GLAD GOVERNOR
SIGNED D-ASSTRES PROTECTION
OF VALLEY INTERESTS.

Nc ALLEN. Tex. April 9.-Represen-
tative s. NJ Glasscock. who returned
home several days ago. received tele
gram today from Austin, announcing
that Governor Colquitt had signed the
BurlesOn-Glascock irrigation bill. AS
Mr.. Glasscock had a great deal to do
with the framing of this bill, which was
substituted for the original Burges ir-
rigatiOn bill, he is naturally much graf
ified at its becoming a law. The Burgess
bill contained number of provisions
which would have been very hurtful
to the Valley irrigation interests. These
features were eliminated or modified by
the measure which was finally passed,
known as the Burgess Glasscock bill, and
il is believed that the new law instead
of restricting or retarding irrigation in
terests will be beneficial to them.
Mr.. GlasscOck expresses appreciation
also for the cOurtesieS extended him and
assistance given by the Herald in push
ing this matter at a time when the
most important interests Of the Lower
Rio Grandc were threatened.

as unreasonable and unduly discrimina-
tory the increased freight rates by

tiOns.
This is the famous Texas Common

The commission decided that if car
riers narrowed the boundaries of com

fair regard to the rights of the COM
munities they propose to exclude. The
commission refused to graf petition
from Amarillo territory for inclusion in
the common point territory, because that
makes the lattel practically coextensive
with the state of Texas and seriously
reduces the railroads revenue. The
carriers however are directed to estab-
lsh rates to Amarillo on many import
ant commodities 0 ma party with Texas

Former Governor Adams of Colorado,

clave here was approved at the meeting
of the knights Templar at Corpus

fifty miles Of Brownsville, and all who
are eligible within that radiOus will be
affiliated with the lodge in this city.
The Masonic bodies in Brownsville
are the owners of valuable piece of
property on 10Th street, near Elizabeth,
in the heart of the business sec
ton, and they plan to erect modern
lodge building on the site. The property
cost the lodge about $500 and nearly
this entire amount has been paid in.
Therefore it is probable that the pro
posed temple will be well under way
within two or three months. This mat
ter will be taken up by the lodges soon
looking to the early construction of the
building.
This increase of Importance of the
Brownsville lodge makes the temple all
the more necessary to the lodge.
