Mr.. Hoax arrived here Saturday from

Houston, Dallas, San Antonio and one
or two other Texas cities.

form a clearer judgment Of what is

resided in the community for years.

as it never saw before. Il knew FL

BRICKBATs FOR HON. W. R. SMITH.

From New York Sun.
The foremost champion Of immediate and
radical antitrust legislation by congress is
representative William Robert Smith, Of
Texas, who also poses as a friend OF bust
ness kindly if severe. In the present re-
luctauce to invest capital Mr. Smith sees
only "a natural hesitation necessary for a
proper adjustment of business to the new
conditions of freedom" He admits that
tariff and currency legislation have had the
effect of checking enterprise, but in his
judgment the new freedom" is not yet
contaminated, and must be. TT is bette.
for the country" he says, chat business
should mark time a little while longer il
need be- than that the corporate monopoly
interests should be granted a continuance
1t is better to apply the remedy now than
to permit the disease to run on"
No rest for business; let it mark timei
Such is the ultimatum Of Smith, OF Texas.
whose opinion Of business on any large scale
is so bad that perhaps only the lockstep for
corporations would suit him. Tt is natural
to inquire how the Hon. William Robert
Smith comes to be an authority upon bust
ness, big or little. He has the distinction
OF representing 81 counties in western Texas
and the Panhandle, including the Staked
Plain, the Sierra Diablo, Twin Buttes Buff
falO Gap, Goat Mountain, PaintrOck Wild
Horse; alkaH flats. dry lakes and water
holes, all on the map, and immense stretches
Of desert
Much Of the landscape in the trust killers
district consists Of mirages, and the settlers
remote from industrial centers think in
mirages. Their representative, who lives in
that crowded mart Of trade Colorado Cpopu-
latiOn 1900 is not exempt From this coign
of vantage Mr.. Smith, surveying the bust
ness Of the country, sees many nebuIous in
versions and distorted images, also horrid
phantasma gOrias in which every corporation
IS an octopus and its officers are COLLINS
damned. What wonder is it that he demands
drastic antitrust legislation and will give
business no grace, no respite, no breathing
spell?
Do it now. says Smith. We believe that
his constituents in jeff Davis PaIo Pinto
Pecos, Tom Green and Winkler, to name a
few Of the outdoor counties in his district
agree with him to a man; but that there is
unanimity for marking time and awaiting
the new freedom" in the busy manufactur-
ing city and railroad center of FL Paso
may be honestly doubted.

SALAZAR'S BOND
is FIXED AT $4,000
He Also VIII Have to Explain at SANTA
Fe Why He Jumped Bail in FL PasO
and Why Fountain Was Shot.


Santa Fe, n. NJ. Jan 19.-United
States attorney Summers Burkhart and
United States marshal A. H. Hudspeth
have conferred upon a plan Of pro-
ce6ure for Gen. Jose IneZ SalaZar with
whom Uncle Sam has several bones to
pick. A bond of $1,000 having proved
insufficient to hold Gen. Salazar in the
United States the last time, United
States attorney Burkhart has had it
raised to $4,000, under the impression
that generals are not held at that
much in Mexico and that no one is like
ly to put up such a sum for Salazar.
Salazar is to be given a hearing
before the United States commissioner
at Maria, Texas, and if unable to furn-
ish the bond of $4,000. will be taken in
charge by the United States marshal
of Texas and brought to Santa Fe to
face judge w. II. Pope and his court.
While Salazar is held on a charge of
violating the neutrality laws, he will
also be asked to explain why he
skipped his bond at Eel PasO recently
and did not return until driven across
the line at OUnaga by the attack of
the "COnstitutiOnaliStS" under villa
He may also explain why he ordered
Tom Fountain, of Las Cruces, shot at
ter the secretary of state had sent him
word not to do it. In fact. the secre-
tary of state had informed Salazar that
he would be held responsible personal
" if any harm befeu Fountain, where
upon, it is said, Salazar promptly exc
cUted the young man who had fallen

Gunpowder.

The explosion of gunpowder is divid
ed into three distinct stages, called the
ignition. Inflammation and combustion
The ignition is the setting on fire OF
the first grain. while the Inflammation
is the spreading of the fame over the
surface Of the powder from the point
of ignition. Combustion is the burn
ing up of each grain. The value OF
gunpowder is due to the fact that
when subjected to sufficient heat It be.
comes gas which expands with
frightful rapidity. The SO called ex.
plosion that takes place when a match
is touched to gunpowder is merely Il
chemical change. during which there
is a sudden evolution of gases from
the original solid. 1t has been cal
culated that ordinary gunpowder on
exploding expands about 1000 times
or Oils space this much larger as n
gas than when in a solid form.
