DAM THE COLORADO.
Texas editors must not be deceived
by the present apparent lull in the
dam business. We are getting ieady.
That is all. The surveyors are hard at
work. Consulting Engineer Fannin
will be here in March. The summer
will be devoted to the work. By next
fall we expect to have Austin booming
real estate gone up to fancy figures a
building boom inaugurated and other
things too numerous to mention. To
be brief the people of Austin
have determined on a policy
of progress. It is already in-
augurated under a practical mayor
and a go ahead council. Nor do we
intend to look back and like Lot's
wife bo turned into a pillar of salt.
Forward is the word. Those who have
week knees if any get to the rear.
In two or three years we intend to
have a city here that will bo the pride
of Texas and the most beautiful in
tli 9 southwest but a city of trade
busincsKand comnierco as well as a
city of stately buildings romantic
landscapes and the palatial edifices of
wealth and refinement. All of which
C.in not be accomplished without an

MOKE CONSOLIDATION.
The anti-trust bill of Kcnator Sher-
man which has been favorably re-
ported by the finance committee of
the senate is good enough so far as its
purposes go. Hut tho principles
underlying tho meaus proposed by
Mr. Sherman for the attainment of
the objects sought can not be so
readily endorsed. The bill is a re-
atlirmfltion of the assumption in tho
inter-stato commerce act that tho
power not only to regulato comnierco
between the States but their domestic
trado resides in congress. Conceding
its power to interfere in truffle betwocn
tho different States it does not seem
in consonance with tho genius of our
government or commensurate with
its powers as modelled and understood
by its founders a century ago that
the ' Federal authority can step
insido a State and meddle
with its domestic concerns as
proposed by the Sherman bill. To
break up anduestioy trusts and com-
binations to force prices to an arbi-
trary figure is something to bo do-
sired and accomplished. But when it
necessitates a further concession of
power to tho central government
which has been continually gathering
strength at tho expense of tho States
for the last twenty years it is timo
to deliberate upon tho ultimato re-
sults. The people of tho States are
becoming too indiil'orent to this ac-
cretion of power in our Federal gov-
ernment. Like Ix)rd Byron these
States may wake up somo morning
and find themselves not exactly fam-
ous but shorn of tho powers origin-
ally guaranteed them by tho constitu-
tion one of these is tho right of
managing their own domestic affairs
inside State lines.
bAlSTIVTHK 1LACE FOB THE FOR-
ESTRY CONVENTION MEETING.
Tho action of tho board of trado
yesterday in inviting tho members of
tho various Arbor Day associations of
Texas to meet in a "Forestry conven-
tion" in Austin next month at the
time ol tho session of tho American
Horticultural society was most op-
portune and appropriate. The ninth
subject in tho list of topics to bo dis-
cussed by tho Horticultural society is
"Some Points in Forest Planting on
the riains and Prairies." This sub-
ject is to be handled first by Prof. B.
E. Fernow of tho District of Colum-
bia. Prof. Foruow from tho accurate
knowledge derived from his studies
in tho departments in Washing-
ton is thoroughly qualified to
discuss this question upon tho
broadest plan and upon the
most scientific basis. His essay will
bo very valuable to gentlemen organ-
izing a State Forestry association.
Besides this every meeting of this
Horticultural society will be of interest
and value to these gentl omen of ou
State who are planning this new de-
parture and who should bo thoroughly
conversant with the subject in all its
phases. It must be borne in mind
that this Horticultural society is not
' made up of novices but of the forr.
most men of the nation in their speci
alty. They come from every State in
the Union and are prepared to dis-
cuss every question as the climatic
conditions of their several States
effect the several questions. Their
meeting together here will be a
memorable occasion in the history of
Horticulture and will mark a
memorable day we think in
Texas horticulturally at least. It is
impossible to avoid the conclusion that
it is the wis8t thing the Arbor Day
associations of the State can do to at
once decide to spend the week of Feb
ruary 17 etc. in Austin in fellowship
with the horticulturists of the Union.
And in this connection we think it
most advisable that Mayor McDonald
and our county commissioners at once
take steps to form an Arbor Day asso-
ciation for Austin and Travis county
that it may take the initiative in se-
curing the attendance at this meet-
ing of the rest of tho Arbor Day asso-
ciations of the State. The time is
very short and only tho promptest
action can secure the end in view.
THE LIVING UKFOKE THE DEAD.
The Waco Day with its usual apti-
tude states its position clearly and
forcibly as follows: The Statesman
reprints it as an enunciation of itsown
position which is not that we love
Jefferson Davis less but the living and
indigent ex-Confederates more and
that we can better honor the dead by
as he would have us caring for the
needy than spending vast sums of
money in marblo or bronze. What
so suitable a monument to the memo-
ry of Jefferson Davis as a commodious
Confederate Home 1 The Day says :
A gentleman writes to The Day
that he believes or infers that this
paper is opposed to the Jefferson
Davis monument fund movement.
His opinion appears to be based on a
remark made by The Day to the ef-
fect "that the first duty of the South
is to the living the maimed and in-
digent survivors of the Confederate
army." Our correspondent is re-
spectfully informed that Tho Day is
perfectly willing to contribute to an
appropriate monument to the memory
of Mr. Davis. It expects to do sc
and is also willing and desires to see
othors do so. But we do insist and
if Jefferson Davis were living he would
approve tho proposition that every
Southern stato ought to provide for
tho comfort of the ex-Confederate sol-
diers within its bounds who are indi-
gent maimed or unable to make their
own support. The point Tho Day de-
sired to make was that tho movement
to erect a costly monument to Mr.
Davis ought not to be permitted to
overshadow and dwarf that other and
equally commendable movement to
build up a Confederate Home in this
State.
The recommendation of Secretary
Tracy's naval policy board involves a
tremondous turning loose of money
somo threo hundred and fifty million
dollars. This would it is estimated
give us two hundred and twenty-seven
magnificent war ships of one descrip-
tion and another. England in 1887
had a navy of two hundred and forty-
six vessels which number has of
course in the last two years been in-
creased. But witli what vessels we
now havo aud these two hundred and
twenty-seven more Uncle Sam would
havo a monstrous deal to say about
tho control of tho high seas. And
think of that much money turned
loose put into circulation what pros-
perous days there would be ! Wo need
a navy heaven knows and by the plan
proposed it could be secured and the
second end mentioned also be attained.
The Waco Day is an earnest friend
of tho Confederate Home and says:
"The Jefferson Davis monument
fund does not seem to grow in Texas
and is lagging in other parts of the
South. The Day holds that our first
duty is to tho living. Let us provide
homes for the maimed and helpless
veterans of tho lost causo however
humble they may bo if they furnish
food and shelter and then we may
erect marble shafts to tho memory of
the dead."
It is stated conservative Republi-
cans in congress denounco Senator
Ingalls' lato speech appreciate tho
difficulties of the South in dealing
with tho negro and frankly say they
do not know what to do with him.
Well this is tho result of seventy-live
years' agitation of tho subject during
which tho lives of a million of men
have been sacrificed to the great black
idol.

TEXAS MINERALS.
SECOND ARTICLE BY E. . DCMBLE
8TATE GEOLOGIST-
IRON ORES.
Aa Important and Interesting Document
Showing the Location of Ores
and Their Analyses.
Texas is rich in iron ores. Not
only are there extensive beds of lim-
onites of various .degrees of purity in
the eastern portion of the State but
in the central mineral district (com-
prising Burnet Llano Gillespie
Moson and parts of adjacent counties)
and in Trans Pecos Tex. hematites
and magnetic ores occur in large
bodies and in some places of a very
high degree of purity. Tho import-
ance of tho occurrence of these dif-
ferent varieties of ore within our own
borders can hardly be estimated. In
most of the larger iron producing dis-
tricts it is unusual to find such quan-
tities of both kinds of ore and when
as is generally the case a highly su
perior grade of iron or steel can be
made by a mixture of two or more
of tliese varieties the missing ore has
often to be brought from great dis-
tances. Thus magnetic ores similar
to those of the central mineral district
of Texas are mined in the Lake
Superior region and shipped to. vari
ous interior points and even to
Birmingham Ala. for admixture with
the commoner ores of these localities.
Our great advantage in this regard
must therefore be readily apparent.
As stated above tho iron ores of
East Texas are limonites that is a
compound of iron with oxygen com-
bined with a certain percentage of
water yielding when perfectly pure
GO per cent of metallic iron. These
ores are of sedimentary origin having
been deposited from solution or sus-
pension in water. They therefore us-
ually contain a greater or less quan-
tity of impurities in tho shape of sand
clay phosphorous sulphur etc. and
when either of these impurities pass a
certain limit the ore is no longer com-
mercially valuable. Thus sand is
detrimental if it exceed 10 per cent
and the phosphorous is too high for
Bessemer ores if it amounts to one-
fifth of 1 per cent.
These East Texas ores occur in con-
nection with the strata of the tertiary
formation partly in that division es-
pecially characterized by the lignite
beds and therefore callod the Eo-lig-nitic
and partly in that portion im-
mediately overlying this and charac-
terized by its deposits of greensand
marls and tho numerous beds of fos-
sil sea shells which it contains and
which is known as the Claiborne from
its most typical locality. The ores vary
greatly in physical character as
well as in quality. Some of these are
massive like ordinary sandstone or
limestone; others are laminated or
havo a stalactitic or botryoidal struc-
ture and in some places thy show a
conglomerate structure. In color
they vary from yellow through
orange and brown to a glistening
black and thoir lustre while mostly
dull is nevertheless in certain varie-
ties often resinous or even glossy.
As a result of the diflbrent condi-
tions attending their deposition the
ores of these two regions differ con-
siderably in character although their
mode of occurrence is very similar in
both districts.
The beds are most usually found
lying horizontally on or near the tops
of the hills and havo generally no
covering other than a bed of buff
sand from a few inches to twenty feet
in thickness.
In some places however more es-
pecially in the southern district this
is replaced by a sillicious ferrugiuious
sandstone which is seldom more than
one foot in thickness. The upper bed
of ore is in nearly all cases the princi-
pal one those that undeilio it when
there are such boing generally thin-
ner and of poorer quality.
To the fact of the greater hardness
and consequent greater resistance of
these beds of iron ore is largely due
the present topography of this region.
The strata which for the most part
are horizontal have been cut through
by tho drainage system of draws
creeks and rivers leaving flat top-
hills and plateaus with steep canyon-
like banks ; and it is often entirely
possible to judge from afar whether a
hill contains ore or not from the char-
acteristic shape thus imparted to it.
The ores of the area which we have
called the eo-lignitic are of stalactitic
botryoidal coglomerate and geode
structure and include the so-called
kidney ores. These vary in color from
yellow to black and the beds them-
selves vary from an inch to twelve
feet in thickness.
There have been numerous an-
alyses mode of the ores ot;this district
and the results differ with the locality
and character of ore. As a rule the
percentages of phosphorus and
sulphur are very low and many an-
alyses show results placing them
well within tho Bessemer limits.
Analysis of specimens taken hy
members of the survey to represent
typical localities showed the ore to
contain: .
Metallc Iron .40.07 to 51.88 per cent
Phosphorus trace (i.i7
Sulphur O.3'to0.77
Salt 4.36 to H.N5'
. This in connection with the many
other analyses already published of
ores from these localities proves its
good quality.
The Sabine river may be taken as
the southern boundary of these depos-
its. The ore of tho southern portion of
the district or Claiborne division is
on the contrary generally laminated
compact or massive in structure and
is sometimes black but more often
yellow buff or brown and is in some
places quite crumbly when broken.
It occurs often in connection with de-
posits of greensand both altered and
unaltered and the beds of one attain
a thickness in many places of from
six to eight feet. These beds extend
from the Sabine river in Henderson
county as far south as Sabine county
and only require railroad facilities to
make them of great value. The value
of the ore for the manufacture of iron
is shown by the following average
analysis made in the laboratory of
the survey :
Water X4 fi9
Silica 9.04
Oxide of iron C7.84
Ume Trace
Magnesia 8.10
Sulphur. Trace
Phosphorus 06
Corresponding to metallic iron 47.5
Having by these examinations and
assays definitely proved the value of
these ores the survey is now engaged
in determining the location and ex-
lent of all workable beds of iron ore
in these two districts. Eight counties
have already been carefully examined
and all such deposits accurately
mapped. As soon as the field work is
finished a map will be published
showing these in detail.
The smelting of the ores has bscn
carried on in both districts in a small
way for more than twenty years. The
Loo Ellen furnace in Marion county ;
the Nash and Sulphur Forks furnaces
in Cass county ; Young's Philleo's and
others in Cherokee and Nacogdoches
were operated during and subsequent
to tne late war.
The Alcalde at Kusk a 25-ton fur
nace erected by the State at
the penitentiary has been success-
fully run and the ore has proved so
good mat cast iron pipe is made di-
rectly from the furnace.
At Jefferson at 80 ton furnace is
now under construction and will be
put into operation as soon as com-
pleted. At New Birmingham the
Tasse Belle a furnace of fifty tons ca
pacity is now practically completed
and ready to put in blast.
Tho products of the furnaces which
have been run on these ores is a re-
markably tough iron which is es-
pecially suitable for car wheels plows
and all castings requiring a har-
dened or chilled surface. By select-
ing and mixing- the different ores
iron can doubtless be made to suit all
purposes.
Tho fuel used up to the present
time has been charcoal. The depos-
its lie within the timber belt and
there is sufficient 'timber if used
properly and charred in retorts to
answer nil purposes for many years to
come. But if this is to continue the
source of supply then it is necessary
that there be an economic use of the
wood from the beginning. This is
impossible under the present system
of burning charcoal in open kilns.
Not only is there a loss of valuable
by-products wood alcohol but the
yield of charcoal is much less than
when proper retorts are used
anu the charcoal ltselt is
less dense. It must therefore seem
most prudent as well as financially
beneficial that attention be given at
once to the building of retorts or ovens
of the most improved pattern in order
that the best results should be ob
tained in this most important item of
fuel as regards its quality quantity
and price. The Jefl'erson furnace is
from 150 to 200 miles from the coal
mines of the Indian Territory and it
is stated that the owners of that fur-
nace expect to use coke.
Limestone for fluxing can be ob
tained in the vicinity of Palestine and
elsewhere in the cretaceous islands
Dr from a short distance further west
along tho different railroads.
The existence of all the requisites
goo 1 ore sulhcient fuel and limestone
for lluxing for the rapid development
of a great industrial country in East
em Texas is therefore clearly shown
and even if there were no other fields
from which to get supplies of ore
these are fully worth developing; but
when as is the case these limonites
are within easy railway distance of
the magnetic ores and hematites of
the Central district and m addition
to this there occurs in that district a
fine grado of mangenese ore the pros-
pects for their profitable working and
the consequent enrichment of the ad
jacent country is very bright indeed
The ores of Llano and surrounding
counties are of a very high grade and
occur as beds or belts in the rocks of
that district.
Very extensive deposits of limonite
limite and other hydrated ores for
the most part not seriously contami
nated with silica are very abundant
all through this area hematites and
magnetites though more restricted
occur in great quantity over extensive
belts aud many of tliese show by
analyses that they are unusually rich
in metallic iron and free from unde-
sirable contaminations.
The distribution of the hydrated
ores is practically unrestricted
Workable deposits exist in connec-
tion with tho wildest variety of rocks
from the oldest to the most recent
but the accumulations are chiefly vein
deposits or segregations instead of bog
formations. Hematites occur in van
ous forms both as beds and enclosures
in uuartz and other varieties. The
magnetites form well maiked belts ex-
tending across the whole area along
certain lines of greatest disturbance.
As to the geographic distribution
although strict accuracy must be dis-
claimed at present it is roughly cor-
rect to designate the northwest trend
and the region in eastern Llano
county (with extensions into Blanco
and San Saba counties) as pre-eminently
tho magnetite belt; the
hematite belt par excellence covers a
wide area bearing more nearly north
and south extending through Llano
and Mason counties continuing into
Gillespie county.
The hematite ore is similar iu com
position to limonite except that it

and pure specimens yield 72.4 per

analyses that have been made of these
ores from the various counties in-
cluded in this district is very great
and their quality is therefore no longer
a matter of doubt. Somo of the ores

able quantities of mangenese with the

as to render it available for smelting
them.
The distribution of these ores has

ment accompanied by maps showing
fully the localities of tho deposits.
In addition to these deposits there
are several others which have not yet
been examined fully enough to allow
definite statements to be made con-
cerning them. Good ores are found
in the territory covered by the Central
coal field itself but we know nothing
of their extent as yet. In Trans-
Pecos Texas fine veins of hematite
havo been discovered but they are not
availaole at present lacking water
and fuel supply and the distance be-
ing too great to permit their ship-
ment eastward. Nevertheless the
amount and quality of the ores of the
districts described are fully equal to
our needs and w hope soon to sec
them more freely utilized.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Haw the Little Silk Worm Changes Republi-
can Opinion
Washington D. C January G ISfW.
There never was anything more
absurd than the recent appearance of
a Kansas congressman be lore the
house committee on ways and means.
The honorable gentleman told the
committee that it was absolutely nec
essary for his constituents to have
protection for their silk industry sav
ing: "Silk is raised in my district
from the j ocoon without any outlay
and results iu an addition to the in
come of the farmers an income which
seems like finding so much monev.'
Then the honorable gentleman went
on to argue in an earnest manner as
though he believed it himself that it
is necessary to protect the people of
his district by the. imposition of a cus-
toms duty of .f 1 per pound for the "im-
portation of raw silks"
Think of that honest men think
of that. The little silk worm in Kan-
sas costs absolutely nothing for sup-
port or attention and ho does not
charge the farmer a cent for his ser-
vices. His product is all clear profit
for his owner but still he is in com-
petition with the pauper silk worms

be time enough to discuss nomina-

ever that at present Mr. Carlisle is a
staunch friend of the ex-president and
would be very glad to see him renomi-
nated and re-elected. Indeed it
seems to be the general sentiment of
Democrats in congress that alter all
