Mr. Howard couples this report and
estimate with the statement that moic
when labor Irou and all other muter!
al is thirty per cent cheaper the cost
of the road will be correspondingly ro-
(luoed. We entertain no doubt our-
selves but that our roads cau be con
structed here iu Texas at least thirty
per cent below the abovd estimate.

These estimates are pregnant with
iuterest to .all of our surrounding coun-
ties and of greater interest to us. One
of our most enterprising citizens whose
interest Is second- only to that of The
Herald in narrow gauge roads bauds
us the following letter bristling with
such facta as will surely commend it to
careful perausal:

Dear Sir Yours of the second In-
stant Is received. 1 -You inquire about
narrow-gauge railroads in general and
ours the Toledo and Maumeo Narrow
Gauge in particular. . I must answer
brletly as a full history of even a narrow-gauge
road would till small vol-
ume. Ou the fourteenth of April 1874
we began grading our road nine miles
in length. On' the twelfth of August
we had finished laylug the Irou aud
putting the track in Hue aud began
carrying passengers ou that day aud
to the first of this mouth have carried
over the road 104800 passengers. Our
road is three-feet gauge road-bed seven
feet on surface tiea two feet apart or
2(40 per mile flv and a half feet long
Ave iucbes thick and seven-lnoh face.
Our Irou U twenty-five pounds per lin-
eal yard say forty-four tons pel tulle
aud cost delivered in Toledo sixty-
four dollars per ton.. The cost of grad-
ing bridging culverts cattle-guards
iron laylug etc ready for use was
six thousand dollar Der mile We have
two locomotives and tenders cylinders
eight by sixteen inches weight nlue
Urns each built by Porter Bell 4 Co.
Pittsburg and warranted to run thirty
miles an hour. Tbe flrsv euglue ship-
ped us was in July 1874. an cost at

Wabash aud Western Kuilroud we
curry freight and passengers at Just
hall their rates. They uavesince made
some ohaugu In rates; we have not.
Our entire running expensed per day
are about nineteen dollars and fl fly
ceuts; receipts $151)00 to $200 00.
iNot an accident nus occurred up
on the road. Our curves are sharper
than staudurd uuuxe oars can run. If
your people are fearful of a narrow-
guage Uounirui ol us uiiiuy and ill
ness tor all kinds of trutiic assure them
of tills that a uarrow-guage railroad
can be built over a reasonably level
country aud equipped for sixty ' per
cent of the cost of u standard ami over
u rough hilly or broken couutry for
fifty per cent of the cost of standard
guuge. While for even a uurrow-
Uiiuge it Is deslrublo to avoid sharp
curves as much as possible yet through
a very hilly surface much heuvy work
lu gruding can be saved by the narrow-
gunge maklug curves that cannot be
run by the standard ruuds. If you
have heavy grades aud large tralllc 1
advise thirty foot iron about twelve or
thirteen ton engines ten by sixteen
inch cvlindtr thirty-six to forty inch
drivers and as to cunuclty you need
not limit. It will curry cuttle corn or
oottou as well us a standard Your
box cars weigh say tour tons and curry
six or eight tons us saiely uud quickly
as the other. The standard guuge car
empty weigh us much us the narrow
uuuue cur unu its lonu. wo mat iu
every trulu of twenty or tweuty-liveoars
the uurrow guuge saves over one hun
dred tons deud weight or non-paying
loud. I send you a circular our Kuei-
ucer has brought out giving figures
uuu raeia.
I tuko it your people are nruoticul
and will not for the suke of grandeur
employ an elephunt with u mammoth
carriage to haul a mules loud. We
are so well convinced of the capubll
lly of the narrow gauge three f.iot
railroad that II wo had millions iu
money we would never invest it iu
the broad or standard four foot eight'
anil a half inch roudp iSome objec-
tion is made to the transfer of freight.
That is a small matter aud is now
being done from one standard cur to
another. This has been styled a "pro
gressive ago" and though the (Jen
tennial is passing will continue its
progress doubtless toward perfection.
1 suggest to you (what we intend) to
make your road-tied eight feet wide

' Galveston News correspondent: Well
informed land agents say that Dallas
county will cultivute two acres of land
in 1870 to one aore cultivated iu 1874
This estimate 1 think is more likely
to fall short of the mark than to ex-
ceed it. The same may perhaps be
said of mauy surrounding comities. It
seems as if this portlou of Texas was
goiug to till up aud overllow within a
few years. Uooil farms are now worth
twenty to forty dollars per acre. The
greatly cheaper farming districts quite
as gooou ami lertile iu tbe southern
and western counties will largely be
filled up with the excess of people of
meseoeutrai counties at no distant
period. To revert to the prospects of
this city it appears quite evident that
Dallas win make a ten-strike aud the
Central Iiullrood will also be greatly
benefitted when the proposed railroad
to the Wichita country is built. The
construction of such a road would large-
ly couuttfact any temporary injury
to the 'trade of the city result-
ing ' from the construction of the
Texas and Pacino to the West.
It is not known outside of official cir-
cles how tbe company is to raise
means but its recent reorganization
with live men. at tbe head the pres
ence bere at the time or promineut
otllclals of the Central and removal
of the depot of tbe latter company to a
point which villi be convenient for
both roads together with the appar
ent iuterest which the Central would
teem to have In Its construction Just
now that the Texas and Pacific ia be-
ing built to Fort Worth give rise to re-
ports that the Central is to assist lu Its
immediate construction. Although
the business men of Dallas seem to
have had a prosperous business season.
yet it Is very doubtful if their ability
Is equal to the task of 'building the
Wichita road without material assist-
auce. Ualveston should look with in-
terest to the project as oae ultimately
to be of very great benefit to her trade.
Dallas for a ol ty lined witb railroads
and business aud professional men is
remarkable for its sentiment upon the
uew Constitution. There are few who
are openly to oppose It while nearly

eroor Coke's decided stand for it and

The great trial of Hubcock was fair-
ly opened on the eighth instaut by a
preliminary speech from Colonel Dyer
The intense Interest manifested by the
entire country in this trial is scarcely
second to that evoked by the great
scaudal suit. We will keep our read'
ers fully posted as to each day's pro
ceedings.
The following well worded article
from tbe St. Louis Ilepubllcnu very
forcibly indicates the relation of Bris-
tow to the administration :
As tho deadly wrestle between the

ring approaches the critical point it is
not surprising tnuc me silent uadU'
miiHthUs Who presides over the Trmwo
ry Department and in whose powerful
hands all the threads nf Miu
tiuu are held should become an object
of mingled hatred and dread. We
speak of the struggle as ouo between
the Treasury Department and the
whisky ring but it would be more pro
per to suy between Bristow aud the
rmg; for notwithstanding the silence
which he has maintained from tlm li.
ginning aud his careful avoidance of
display the country recognizes the iu
tense personal nature of the contest
and credits Bristow " with niue-
teutbs of all tho labor dar-
ing and responsibility which the
central management of it involves.
