‘I see that the San Antonio people
have now gotten the bonus for the
Fredericksburg road do nearly, p that
it k within striking distance, which
means that by a closer canvas they
will make up the required bonus and
get the road. This means the loss of
a considerable trade that Austin has
enjoyed for years, and it means also
that Austin will have to look elsewhere
for trade to make up for this and other
losses she has suffered.
“It would have required some seven-
ty-five miles of road to reach Fred-
erlcksburg and It is doubtful whether
the trade of that country and ter-
ritory would be worth it. I am of the
opinion that if the city can build seven-
tyrnve miles of a good road that it
would pay better to bald It in another

on his wedding day he and his bride
were sprinkled with the blood of faith-
ful guardians who were killed by bomb
throwers.
It is natural that, seeing the war
with the Moors lag, Alfons should de-
sire to cross over and put some ginger
into the campaign. He will not be per-
mitted to go endanger himself, but he
has no fear. The fact he can not
realize is that the Moors can not be
whipped. They may be slaughtered
and routed and may remain quiet for
a time, but they are just as ready to
engage in con fllot again at the first
opportunity. There is no keeping them
in a peaceful Mate.
Alfonso may well set the Moorish
problem aside, apart from its execu-
five details. It is the harder part of
bravery to keep out of danger, and that
harder part is his. Danger_he has at
all times. Any moment may see his
soul separate from his body by the
hand of the assasin. His lot is to
stand strictly by his ideals of proper
rule and be prepared to meet at any
moment the fate which seems sure to
some day overtake him. It is the high-
est brand of courage to walk calmly
on with the knowledge that murderous
plots are always in existence against
one. Alfonso is the European sover-
eign most in peril of such plots. He
knows it and he conducts himself as
if he ignored it. In his daily- living
he is furnishing a rare example of the
truly brave man and is making for his
nation a better name.
of view of the Austin people. The
question for Austin te whether tho
Fredericksburg proposition is worth
what it will coat and whether Austin
can get the line from that city to the
capital. The Fredericksburg case is
entirely different from that of the pro-
posed Katy extension or new north and
south line. । Fredericksburg Is Isolated.
When it gets an outlet the entire trade
from that section will pass over the
first railroad line built and will be car-
rled to the first city reached by the
line. This means that if Austin sue*
coeds in getting the Fredericksburg
road it gets, almost exclusively, the
trade of a rich and growing section. In
th case of any other new road which
passes through towns and cities al-
ready upon some railroad the share of
business gained by Austin, while
naturally considerable, would not be
nearly total.
Austin might very well go after or
aasist in getting any line that led into
the city, but ita project of getting a
line to Fredericksburg has enormous
prospective returns for the Investment
as compared with almost any other
project now in hand.
It would further give that country
down there a direct northern outlet
which it now has not got. Such a road
would cross five east and west roads
and would parallel no other line. It
would bring Aransas Pass as close to
Austin as it Is to San Antonio,, and
would actually save eighty miles on a
trip from Austin io Aransas Pass.
Lockhart, Gonzales and Goliad and in-
numerable towns on the side lines
would find themselves much closer to
Austin than they are to San Antonio.

'The Thirtieth legfslature authorzed
such delinquent corporations to pay up

penalty clause providing that failure to
so pay up should constitute grounds
for forfeiture of charter, there was in-
serted a date prior to that on which
the act took effect, and for that rea-
