MOBS ABOUT THE ROADS.
Mr. Eeitor: I fear wo arc tres
passing upon your valuable spaco in
our discussion of the road question
but feeling assured that you rocognizo
the great and pressing importance of
tho matter I will venture to reply to
"II. 's" letter in your issue of the 26th.
"II." indulges in platitudes about the
great prorosity of this soil insect
holes etc. in tact mixes up Agricul-
ture Horticulture Aborculture and
oen approaches Pisi culture all of
which we think foreign to the subject.
He even assumes that I am ignorant
upon tho subject of drainage whereas
the contrary is the fact. He also par
allels the drainage ot swamp lands and
roads. I admitted that under drain
ing was efficacious in wet lands but
do not admit that it will make a road
"H" has never yet cited an instance
where it has.
"H" is wrong acrain when he asserts
the great porosity ot our black lands
for their great resistance of drought
comes of their tenacity of moisture
else why do our sandy soils fire no
much sooner? Tho faet is "H" is
deluding himself with a tile-mania.
Practical and observing men know
that whenever you have expended
$700 in tiling a mile of this road you
have as far as the traeling public is
concerned practically buried that
much money three and one-half feet.
I must re-assert there is but one abso
lute plan at a reasonable cost and that
is the prevention of contact with the
soil coupled with ready surface drain-
ago. The advocate of baled material men-
tioned broom weed and I am convinc-
ed that rightly applied its lasting
qualities are indefinite and it can be
had in limitless quantities at the cost
of cutting baling and hauling to.the
place of use.
Mr. Janes asserts that all vegetable
matter will rot Admitted; but the
length of life will be greatly enlarged
by the favorable conditions prescribed
in the plan for its use. He also
speaks of tho tenacious character of
the soil and then suggests his plan
for making a road like the "Bock of
Ages" in 24 hours but unfortunately
failed to mention several facts in con
nection. First where is the gravel to
come from? Second the estimated
cost; and last he says not a word of
tho intense contractile powers of this
land under our midsummer suns and
drought which pulls it apart in fis-
sures that would mako travel absolute-
ly unsafe on his road.
Mr. .honor this question has to be
settled in some way and at some cost.
It would bo tho part of wisdom vo ex-
periment with some of the material
nature has provided and if we fail to
find some cheap and durable plan why
then the demand is imperative for ma
terial from somo more favored section.
If we expect to progress in accord
with our resources wo must make our
facilities for transportation good. The
demands of trado and prosperity have
outstripped tho old ox-team days and
tho days of unfathomabto roads are
numbered. Nature has done much for
us but she has finishod her part ot tho
contract and we must now take up the
work ourselves. Ten miles of good
road in any direction leading to Waoo
is worth more than any forty miles of
railroad wo have and property on it
would thriblo in valuo immediately
upon itB completion.
Hoping you will keep tho master
beforo the people I am
Yours for Phouuesh

Let Us Have Harmony
The mass meeting on Monday night
was a decided and uncquhooal expres-
sion of public opinion on the charter.
The mass meeting decided by an over-
whelming vote in faor of tho new
charter and the extension of the city
limits. There can be no doubt of that.
The points were put plainly and per
spicuously and wero voted on intelli
gently or at least there was no excuse
for the individual who did not so vote.
The Kendall resolution was car-
ried almost unanimously and the Ken-
dall resolution is for the new charter
and the city extension. The adoption
of tho new charter and tho extension
of tho city limits was the very spirit
of the Kendall resolution and of tho
big vote which adopted it.
That resolution provided as a part
of it introductory to tho charter that
said charter should be amended by the
legislature That amendment can only
consist in such changes as will make
that particular charter better accord-
ing to its intent and purposes or as
will mako tbo extension of the city
more conguous.i BcnsiDlo and proper.
If the opponents of the charter at
Austin recognize tho spirit of the
charter and work to maVo it conform
to that and if the friends of the char-
ter take the Kendall resolution accord-
ing to its meaning there is no reason
why it may not pass at once to the
satifaotion 'of eerybody. There oan
be no mistaking the verdict of the
people on Monday night and there
should be no trying to vary that mean-
ing for partizan purposes on cither
side.

The season at this popular play
houso was opened last evening with the

elegant stock of goods will be put in

A war with Germany or any other
nation would quicken business put
up prices and vitalize the whole
country. It is however like the
quickening power of alohohol bring-
ing subsequent prostration good for
the present generation but hard on
the next.
Tho teaoher or
type writing at the
new Collego of Telegrphy and Short-
hand is one of the few men in the
United States who joan set at a type
writer and take telegarms red hot from
the wires. He can take the markets
as they come whieh is the most difficult
feat. But he can do more than that
He can take the fastest operator and
listen to a story at tho sametime. He
has done it here in Waco often. He
is a lightning type writer.
Sam Novich vs. Jno. D. Johnson is
the title of a suit over a bale of cot-
ton. Two parties were interested in
the bale of cotton half each where it
lay at the gin and Mr. Johnson and
Mr.Novioh each claimed the cotton for
debt. Leveys sale advertisements
replevies claimants bonds and a law
suit are vexing aid harassing thatbalo
of cotton while the two men who rais
ed it look on serenely and curiously to
see tne outcome.
Prof. Malone one of the old citizens
of Waco and a gentleman of eml.
nent learning is out in a new book. It
is ontltled "The Self What is It."
Tho book is for sale at Hill Bro.'s
book store price 75 cents. The News
will contain a notico of the book as
soon as the editor has made a careful
reading iu the meantime we advise
our readers to purchase a copy. It is
the work of a gentleman of eminent
ability and learning and a citizen of
Waco.
It may be taken as pretty certain
that the effort to establish a creamery
here will be successful and if a few
more persons will take stock it is nossi-
ble that Waco people may be eating
Waco Creamery butter in the next
ninety days. And what a God send
that would be to those who are partic-
ular about thoir eating. Nice fresh
butter on the table every day. A
creamery ought to be a financial suc-
cess from the start. Cows are very
cheap and Johnson grass grows like a
weed. A man with a small farm n
good field of Johnson grass and a dorvo
of cows could i beat the biggest cot-
win raisers in tue county.
