A "PRINATE MESSAGE"

The tragic death of Madero yesterday,
in the City Of Mexico, recalls the sinister
prediction contained in a Herald Special,
printed in Fridays edition. The epecial
is here reprinted:
Fl PasO, Tex, Feb. PA private
message received here this afternoon
from Mexico City says that Madero
will meet death within forty-eight
hours.
The dispatch says FREDERICK Don
Gonzales Garcia, the depOsed gov
ernor general of the federal district
meets a like fate. Garcia is charged
with being an army CRATER. Gen
Huerta will issue no orders for the
executions, but the two will die I'M
der the notorious fugitive law.
1t would be interesting to know who
the write of that private message was.
1t would be still more interesting TO
know the grounds of his prophecy. if it
was a prophecy, or who gave out the in
formation, if it was information. In any
case that private message has a queer
look in the light Of what has happened
since it was received. The prophet who
proclaimed ii had a singular grip on
the DEATHS. for a prophet.
That part Of the fifth brigade which
moves from blizzard stricken Minnesota
must be allowed to remain in Galveston
a few days to get used to the tropical
climate.

conditions caused a stimulus in the out
put of lumber in Texas for 1912 and it
is estimated that last years production
of the Lone Star State was approximate
~ 100000, 600 feet, which brought the
highest price Of any previous year.
The value of the years production
after passing through the process Of
manufacture was $53.39S.517. according
to data compiled by the Texas CONNER

HUTCHINGS' REPORT.

Mention is made elsewhere of the or
ganizatiOn Of the Texas national guarC
as shown in the report of Adiutant Gen
eral Hutchings. As to the anger force
General Hutchings says:
The ranger force at this time
consists of three captains, two ser
geantS and twelve privates. The
reduction of the force has occurred
because of the assumption Of the
federal government of the duty of
protecting the border. The report of
the treasury department shows that
the treasurer Of the United States
reimbursed the ranger fund in the
amount of $9G39.41 for services rem
dered on the border"
On the financial SIDE General Hutch
ings says:
The many demands made OH the
Texas national guard caused an cX-
penditure of more than the $500 al
lowancc made by the thirty-sccond
legislature. There are still accounts
outstanding against some Of the
companies. The allotment Of the
United States congress to Texas,
amounting to $107, 363.S0 is all that
makes possible the arming, uniform
ing and equipping Of the force.
There is no fireproof warehouse for
the safe custody of these articles.
and the legislature shall be asked
for an appropriation of $4,000 to
build a tireproof warehouse at Camp
Mabry."

COMMON SENSE.
I"ttPve

Brownsville is not alaramed. and has
not been alarmed over the Mexican sit
uatiOn. Nevertheless every citizen of the
place is perhaps i'll full accord with the
governor in his efforts to have the Dor
der protected. What the governor has
asked Washington to do is nothing more
or less than what Washington ought to
DO. Common sense should rule in the
affairs of men and nations, and common
sense teaches us that the border at this
time should be effectually patrollcd.
Soldiers should be sent here, and the
soldiers should be from the regular
army-cavalry by preference. Surpris-
ing things are happening in Mexico, and
this nation, while peaceably inclined,
should not trust too must to chance in
the matter Of protection to the people
along the border.

1t is estimated that there are 466
mills operating i'll Texas at present, of
which 316 operate exclusively upon pine,
40 upon both pine and hardwood and 20
mills upon hardwood timber exclusively.
The consumption of lumber in Texas is
about equal to the product of the Texas
mills, but all of the product of the Texas
mills do not find a market in this state.
The mills Of Arkansas and Louisiana
reach Texas upon substantially the same
freight rate as the mills located in Tex
as pay to the consuming territory and,
in consequence. about 20 per cent of the
timber consumed i'll Texas il manufac-
tured in Louisiana and Arkansas. Only
about 30 per cen of the product Of
