Scibntuts say that yawning is
Caused by a deficiency in the air sup-
ply to the lungs By a strange
Coincidence the deficiency always
occurs when one is bored or sleepy
Thb members ot the legislature
who remained awake to listen to
the governors message pronounce
it disabling and exhausting docu
ment for the listeners
The movement looking towards
legislation for the protection of the
fisheries on the Teas coast is one
of importance as such protection is
greatly needed It i 6 especially ne
pessary that the oyster birds should
be protected

Senator Atue js one of the
honored members of the present
Texas senate He has been appoint
ad a member of no less Jhan eleven
important committees The senate
has been divided into two closes
ope toehold over for four years
while the term of the second class
expires in two years Senator Atlee
is one of the long term senators
which is an advantage for him as
Well aB for his district

Toledo Blade The scheme for
Uunqling the English channel is
again jrevived It is perfectly feasi
ble but the English people are ridic
nloiiBly fearful of aa invasion from
the continent in ease of war
through the tunnel Even two ot
Britains great soldiers the Duke
of Cambridge and Lord Wolseley
hare declared the tannel shonld not
be built and wo fancy it will not
be
V7asbington dispatches says that
it is probable that Congressman
Kilgore will be appelated minister
to Mexico by Cleveland He
would doubtless till the position
with great ability The Mexicau
mission is fast becoming the most
importaut of all the United States
foreign missions and to have a
Texan appointed to it is an honor
to the state
Thb enemies of thi republic in
France are disposed to make the
most of the Panama scandal and
doubtless every effort will bo made
to besmirch the reputation of Pres-
ident Carnot So f r his enemies
have not found any evidence o n
netting bim with the disgraceful
affair
Gabzaites like veritable willo
the wisps have disappeared since
U S troops are scattered along the

until the troops are withdrawn and
then will issue from thoir hiding
places The building of that pick
et line railroad would put an end
to them entirely
Thb Reverend Dr Smoot has
long been the religious guide of the
Texas state senate but as he failed
to cast his ballot for James Stephen
Hogg for governor he has been de-
feated for the place The law will
probably be amended to read that
none but Hogg prayers shall be
beard on high

Despite the delicately expressed
pinion of the Honstoa Pust re-
garding the constitutionality of a
law providingan appropriation by
the twentythird convention of
Texas salons for the worlds fair
the governors message declares
that suoh an act would be nnconsti
tutioual
JSnild Factories
Montgomery Anvertiser
If cotton can bo carried from the
fields of Alabama to England bo
there turned into cloth and thence
shipped to al quarters of the globe
and dividends be oarned by the
mill owners it stands to reason that
still greater dividends can be cam
ed by mills in sight of the fields
Our people ought to have cotton
factories in every goed sized com j
mnn ity in the state By propor
management they cau he made to
pay Nearly every one in Alabama i
the
has been making rnooey

however by only thirty six com
panies with an aggregate capital of
19518000 paid ont in dividends
in 1892 2155000 making an
average of 11 per cent Besido it
may be taken that these mills laid
aside quite a anin for surplus and
for new machinery New mills it
is said are being erected with the
profits of the old ones Sis per cent
is however deemed a fair rejurn
for mill property What is being
done in old and New England cmj

A called meeting of the city
council is to be held as soon as a
quorum reports for business It is
the intention ot Alderman Nichol
jon to submit at that meeting a
rosolution memorializing congress
on the subject of the government
interesting itself in the constrnetion
of a railroad along the Rio Grande
border It will receive unanimous
indorsement not only by the coun-
cil bnfrby all our citizens All
other official bodies which have a
beine along the Rio Grande river
would act wisely to follow the lend
of the Laredo city council Laredo
New3
When will the city council of
Brownsville do likewise As has
been pointed eut there is nothing
to lose and all to gain by such a
course If government aid is not
secured it will at least serve to
call the attention of capitalists to
the subject As everyone must ad-
mit this roid would be suro pay
for the money invested in it and
capitalists are not slow to recognize
a paying investment But at any
rate whether there be ranch or lit
tle hope of success it can cost noth-
ing to hold a moating and prepare
a memorial to congress We will
ouarantee that it will not he a hard
matter to find signers for such a
document
