ANNOUNCEMENTS.
An item in going the rounds of the
papers telling how the idea of the
sleeping car came to the late George
M. Pullman from seeing a swinging
bunk In a miner's oabln out In Colo-
rado. when ha was a poor young man
in that state. Rot and rubbish! The
Idea of the sleeping car was con-
ceived and patented while George M.
Pullman was a boy in pinafores.
Sleeping cars were run on the Brie
railroad In 1843, embodying all the
principles' of the sleeping cars of to-
day. A few years ago Pullman sued
Wagner, the alleged inventor of the
Wagnrr sleeping ear. for infringement
of the Pullman patent The evidence
that "Would have been produced In the
trial of the wilt, if it had been carried
to a finish, developed so positively
the fact that neither Pullman or Wag-
ner had a right to tbe Invention that
a compromise was called and effected,
and n consolidation of the two com-
panies was subsequently formed to
avoid future trouble over the matter
Pullman bought his original idea from
Colon"1 Wheeler of Clmlra. N. Y.. and
it turned out not to be Wheeler’* idea
at all. The rightful Inventors of the
sleeping car never got a penny from
the results their gen'ns bronaht
about.

the summer vacation she was trans-

tbe school she had been touching into
another district. When the scholars
gathered at the beginning of the

they struck in a body, declaring that

Does Prohibition Provoke Rather Than
Remedy the Evil?
The Houston Poet compiles from
official sources figures bearing on the
liquor traffic in Texas, and makes de-
ductions therefrom which are at least
of more than passing interest, and it
can not be denied that they are log-
ical.
During the fiscal year ended July 31,
the revenues of the state from “occupa-
tion taxes on liquor dealers decreased
$62,850. showing that prohibition
gained some ground during the year,
principally in North and Central Tex-
as. For the part year the occupation,
tax paid by whisky dealers amounted
to $577,100, a decrease from the pre-
ceding yiar of $54,700. while the total
paid by beer dealers was $88,150. an
increase over the preceding year of
81850.
Analyzing the figures, it seems that
North Texas is the liquor consuming
section of tbe stale, notwithstanding
the fact that nearly all of the oounties
in that section are prohibition. Dallas

$3650 for selling beer. Bexar county
is sicond with only $32,600 paid for
selling whisky and $12,450 for beer
lincenses.
The primacy of Dallas in the matter
of whisky taxes ia explained by the
enormous growth of the jug and bottle
trade from the surrounding local op-
tion counties. It seems, therefore,
that while local option has driven the
dealers out of many of the great agri-
cultural counties, those who' like to
tipple rtill enjoy the privilege of do-
ing so by patronizing Dalian.
On the other hand, in South Texas,
where the majority of the oounties
have licenses, the sale of beer is on
the increase, just as It Is on the in-
crease in nearly every state of the
Union, the United States having al-
ready become first in beer production.
From the figures of the state, it would
seem that prohibition tends to re-
strict the consumption of beer while
it increases tbe consumption of whis-
ky. for whereas under license there
was always a large patronage for
beer, that class of drinkers now buy
Jugs from centers like Dallas and
Fort Worth because it is easier to con
coal whisky than to conceal beer, and
because beer is perishable to a certain
extent, while whisky Is not.
If the beer drinkers of the prohibi-
tion counties have been turned into
Historical Data Which All Know, But
Few Remember.
It was in March, 1837, that the
United States acknowledged the inde-
pendence of Texas In the following
August the Lone Star State made ap-
plication for entrance into the Amer-
ican family, hut the United States sen-
ate tabled the matter by a vote of 24
to 14.
In 1843 President Tyler made propo-
sitions to the president of Texas for
Its annexation to the United States,
and a treaty was made, but again the
senate rejected the idea. This was on
June 8, 1844.
In January. 1845, the United States
house of representatives, by a vote of
120 to 98, resolved in favor of annexa-
tion. and the,senate finally concurred
by the close vote of 27 to 25. That is
how near we came to losing tbe acqui-
sition of this vast and viable area.
Texas became ours on July 4, 1845.
AH the money we paid was $10,000,000
in United States bonds In 1850. for
which the State of Texas ceded to the
Federal government what is mow the
eastern half of the territory of New
Mexico, the central portion of the pres-
ent State of Colorado and a small sec-
tion In the present States of Wyo-
ming and Kansas. The $10,000,000
was applied to the payment of the
debt of the State of Texas.
A provision was made on the ad-
mission of Texas into the family of
American states that It can be divided
into five states of convenient slse,
each of which shall be entitled to
statehood under the terms of the Fed
eral constitution. The provision 9till
holds good, at the will of Texas.
