Trallc Manager Newmau's letter is a
good one aud brealhes tho proper
spirit from a represeututivo of a big
railway system; but therols ouo point
with which wo must find fault. Mr.
Newman says tho bulk of immigra-
tion Is during tho months ot October
to February which is true. Hut ho
shoots at too long rauge when he
suggests that work should bo inaugu-
rated lor results next winter. Tho
right sort of work aud that immo-
diiilcly will bring good results now.
Thousands of industrial pooplo and
millions of capital cau be brought to
Texas during tho months of Jautiary
February and March through
the influence of well circulated adver-
tising mutter coupled with tho neces-
sary low immigrant rate: and certainly
this can be accomplished in three
weeks time. Why lo'o nny time? A
great deal of good or harm can bo ac-
complished in three or four weeks
time. A revolution cau be brought
about iu tho public miud throughout
tho Fast and North in favor of Texas
by three weeks judicious work. Then
why postpono it a year '( Tho expert-
enco of publishers aud immigration
workers throughout Texas will bear
us out in this position. They receive
about the first of the year thousands
of Inquiries from other States in re-
gard to Texas with tho statement
that they contemplate a move to a
;iew home; and it is only about ono in
live who writes for while all who
make n movo would gladly get the
pejnicd information. Many there arof
too who change their Until destination

Thk objection to the Ulair bill ap-
propriating many millions of tho idle
sin plus to (ho States ou a basis of il-
litenu y comes mainly irom Southern
Democrats Ihouzh all the Southern
Statos except Texas have among their
delegations ablo and earnest advocates
of tho measure. Ou that basis be-
cause of the negro population the
Southern States would get tho llou's
sharo of tho appropriation and great
er prosperity as well as woudcrfiil
progress in education would be tho re
sult. Old Stale s rights idias coupled
with pride and 'omo prejudice arc the
objections to tho bill. As for tho first
named objection there is ceriamiv a
precedent iu tho acceptance of Iho
inta nf thn mniicv which established
tho agricultural and mechanical col
leges. It is believed t.io mil wnicn
