as a public road or opened as such
by any competent authority. The
owners of the land closed the road
up. In Jutfo last suit was institut-

junction was issued restraining the
defendants from closing the road
-which it was claimed was a neigh-

On motion of Alderman Wil-

ized to to make final settlement
with the contractor 31. Russi.
3Ir. Russi reported that ho had
unexpired insurance on the build-
ing lor $9000 and desired tho city
to accopt a transfer of the same

Tho finance committee wcro in-

Said committee was further in

that as far as ho could judge being
no mechanic the contract had been
fully complied with and that the
constructor had dono himsolf cred-
it. Ho bolieved that the building
had been constructed at a much
less cost than is usual. Tho entire

something less than 313000 and

Governor Ireland.
I.NUErENPEhCE Jan. 18. I am
glad to see that our county papor
has the courage and boldness to
antagonize the Galveston Nows in
its unprovoked war on Gov. Ire-
land. Tho News is a vorj- relia-
ble paper in most things and has
many friends but has surprised
many of them by the weak nnd
even silly attack made upon the
governor for his position on the
leneo cutting question. Had Gov.
Ireland sent out troops to roam
over tho prairies and hunt for
fence cuttcrc he would have been
ridiculed by the fenco owners
themsches. They were not as
sembled as was supposed in other
cases w hen troops w ere ordered
delving the law.
Ilorso stealing is going on now
all over tho country. Does the
News suppose the governor ought
to order out troops to stop it ?
Gov. Ireland has cause to be
proud of his record. The people
aro equally proud and should an
opportunity offer will prove it.
Tho News can not make and nn-
make governors at will and when
a few more of tho interior papers
show a little mora independence
and speak out the opinion of the
pcoplo tho News will see moro
clearly the estimation in which
Govdrnor Ireland is held by all
classes of people in tho state.
The news is sound on the all ab
sorbing questions beforo tho Legis-
lature. Tho TForH Tnir" li rnilr
effectual remedy for fence-cutting.
To this it must como; it is best for
tho poor man with no home in
Texas especially. He can culti-
vate land and pay for a littlo home
if his more fortunate neighbor is
lorccd to do the fencing to- keep
his own stock from interfering
with him but it will bo late when
ho has to buy tho land and then
build a icnco to keep other peo-
ples stock off of it.
Why have freo grass for cattle
and not for sheep? 3fy sheep have
tho same right to cat freo grass as
my neighbor's cattle yot his cattle
aro allowed to destroy.tho grass
up to my very door during the
summer and yet when winter
comes on my sheep dio for want of
it while ho collects his cattle and
puts them in his well preserved
pasture. What is this? Class leg-
islation. It looks very much like
it to me and no doubt equally so
to the fenco-cuttcrs: hero is whera
tho "Blamo comes in" over threo
thousand head of cattlo wero driv
en in front of a sheep ranch some-
time ago and turned looso to cat

aro beautifully shy. I reckon that
herein wo can see tho reason why
Independence did not have a rail
road many years ago.
We arc a conservative people :
we dread innovation ; wo have no
lence-cnttmg here no railroads no
fast stages no street fights. But
we have plenty of cotton somo
cedar lelt and highways which fur
nish rich opportunities to ameteur
geologists. I might add though
wo havo no courts here wo havo
not a littio courting.
A Brenham man was hero tho
other day for tho first timo and
could not conceal his disappoint-
ment at finding so littlo business
doing. Wo asured him that what
he missed constituted the chief at
traction of the place. Wo spoke
of our two stores our postofflce
a deserted blacksmith shop and
somo ruins and remarked that tho
man who looked forward to grcat-
jicaa iiiusi receive ms euucuiion in
part amid the ruins of tho past
(That sentiment dear Mr. Editor
is borrowed). Speaking of the
postoflice reminds me that it can
not bo beat. Wo think it is tho
best part of 3Ir. Arthur's govern-
ment. Our Postmaster is just tho
man for the place.
Wo rejoice that Brenham has a
good school house and neat desks
and sittings. Thero is no reason
why your Tittle city should not bo
tho banner town in educational
matters. Somo of your capitalists
havo a good' chance to pcrpoluato
their names by givingyou another
school house loryou will need it
soon.

Kditors Banner:
Christmas has Daued nflhere ra nuirtlr.
that from all external appearances no one
would ln e suspected any unusual occasion
unless indeed from the extraordinary stillnet-s
whkhperraded the city and from" the fact
that alt places of business were closed during
part of tbeda. Christmas i perhaps more
universally celebrated here than in America
ouiinan altogether uiflercnt spirit. There
U no firing of runs or other explosives of any
sort; no crunds of intoxicated and fun-sec-ingraenonthe
streets: the fire-cracker and
the sky-rocVet seem to be totally unknown
and there is a notable lack of other earpiere-
inir contrivances through which vnnni-
America is want to rent his surcharged en-
thusiasm on this occasion.
On the other hand Tverybodv after laying
o asuppn oicnoiccDccrandine nest eata-
blehismcanswillanord retires home and
celebrates Chmtnias a quietly as bo would
his birthday with his family.
I did not see an intoxicated man in the
wholecitr. On the other hand everrbodv
seemed to be universally sober.
I had no little occasion to wonder at the
small amount of dninkenness I hare seen
here considering the fact that liquor is cheap
and its sale perfectly free. Though total ab-
sence is totallv unknown in this countrr and
every German big or little male orfemale
dnnks more or less liquor yet it must be said
forthesobnetrof the German people per-
naps some 01 u Hiouia De creditea to the
puntyof their liquors that there Is infinite
ly less drunkenne4 here than in America
where there is a .strong public sentiment
against the uc of infexicants and where a
tuousand restrictions are thrown around
their sale.
Whin a German doss happen to get
drunk it very rarely assumes a malignant or
combative type. It is more apt to he a jol-
ly good-natured sort of drunk. Occasion-
ally from my room I can bear one or more
of them jogging down the street singing with
all theirmight but interfernngwith nobody.
Tlic police vay no attention to them and
they wend their way through the city filling
the evening airwith their melodic.
I attended services Christmas day tn the
English Kpicopal Chapel here where per-
haps one hundred and fifty persons were
congregated. I was somemhat surprised to
find so many Knglish speaking people here.
There must bo several hundred in the city.
Besides these there are hundreds of Germans

h ho have learned enouch EnirlMi tn the-

thtir ludicrous efforts to eiercie themselves

But not wishing to "pod the surprise be had

old." I said nothing but began to think
that Cael was a very unhealthy jdace or
