In speaking of cities iu Texas, the
Fairfiold Recorder says: "Dallas, we
think, is dostinod to be ono of the largest
and best in the state." There can bo no
doubt of this. The citizens of Dallas are
liberal, enterprising and watchful to
take advantage of every opportunity
offered to advance hor commercially
aud in importance. Dallas is destined
to bo, not ono of the largest cities in
Texas, but tho most important trade
centre west of tho -Mississippi rivor aud
south of St. LouiB.

Railroad company, Samuel V. Felton,

The congress of the United States is
considering the propriety of passing

the question in this state? The lands of
Texas should be reserved for actual sot-
tiers.

INTENSE FEELING IN IRELAND,
to
THE New York Herald, after opposing
Mr. Evarts for senator, is now favor
able to him ou tho ground that opposi
tion Is wanted to a Democrats adminis
tration. That argument might apply in
r the house, but Just how it would como
la where tho senato is decidedly Repub
lican, the IIerai.d cannot at present
fteo.

In their petitions to the legislature for a

I such a penchant for speaking that ho

The San Antonio Light truly says:
l"Tho nlaKmiHm to tho railroads dis
played by the present legislature does
tun accord with the spirit ana progress
i of the ago, aud If sumo of the bills intro

CHARTER AMENDMENTS.
The following is a summary of the
proposed amenduiouts to the Dallas city
charter, as agreed upon, to be sent to tho
legislature for enactment into law:
First To clearly define the bounda
ries as they are, about which, by tho ac
tion of tho la.it legislature, there is some
confusion. Two or throe very slight
changes aro made on the north lino, so
us to have a street boundary instead of
an imaginery lino running diagonally
across private property. To do so two
or three small fractions nro thrown out
and two or three taken In, but iu neither
c iso of appreciable extent.
Second To provide how additions can
bo made to the city by the peoplo tut
siielitorrltory, only simplifying the pres
ent modo.
Third To make all city officers , ox
ccpt tho secrotary aud treasurer, eloo-
tlvo by tho peoplo.
Fourth To regulalo the mode of en
rolling ordinances and the veto power
of the mayor.
Filth To require all ordinances to bo
published one time In a nows papor.
Sixth To allow tho city to acquire
ground outside the limits for hospitals,
cemetorios, water-works, etc.
Seventh To give cvory ofllcor a fair
trial before he can be removed.
Eighth To regulate the mode of levy
ing any special tax for school-house
purposes by a vote of the poople.
Mnth To combine Into one and ren
der intelligible the several sections in
relation to opening, widening and ex
tending streets.
Tenth To authorize commit!! ng
city prisonors, in cortaln cases,
to tho county poor-farm with tho con
sent and under arrangomonts with the
county commissioners court.
Eleventh To allow about two weeks
more time for levying the annual taxes
in May, so that the assessor can complete
his assessment rolls.
Twolfth To more clearly doQno tho
powor of tho municipal authorities lu
the regulation of struct railroads, and,
Thirteenth To romove obscurities in
the provisions in regard to stroot pave
ments.
Tho changes are mainly to romovo
ambiguities and simplify tho language
used, so as to make tho meaning clear
Reside thW, sovoral obsolete and uso-
loss Boctions are repealed, such as the
power to buy the bridgo, aftorwards
bought by the county, and the power to
vote as a stockholder In any rtilroad or
other company. No city iu Texas can
now bo such a stockholder, and benco
all such useless Boctions are strlckou
out.

CONCLUSION OP EM'DUTS,
Experts examining tiio locality of tho

reached thi conclusion after tracing the
progress of the ib hi iVihut thuexplimion
occurred in the passngo leading from
tho ayo division ol the lobby to seals in
tho southwtst chamber, usually occu
pied by public si cretaries. A par
cel containing dynamite was placed
a few fc;-t beyond tho barrier
at the entrauco to the house of cotil
lons, 1 ho locution being precisely in
of
calod by a bole ploughed through tho
usenrv a looi iiiick. A
fissure was also made In tho brick-work
au arch near by.
si npi.isi: is i;runsKP
that tbo explosive was not placed dl-
ctly under tho barrier, in which
caso tno daniago would iiavo Peon

the ruin to be more appalling
than at first supposed. The
postofllce in the lobby was de-
troyod and several huge blocks of
stone fourteen inches thick and
avoraglng half a ton were upheaved.
no magazino at ilvdo rark is patrolled
by police. Great excitement prevails
throughout the Irish province ot Ulster.
TH E LOYAL CLASSES
attribute the activity among the dyna
miters to the weak action of the govern-
ieni against conspirators. A meeting
as ueon called to urge tho government to
enact moro vigorous laws against
American aud other revolu
tionary agouts in England.
l'ho dynamiters consist of two classes
thoso who are convinced that it
impossiblo to porsuudo English
laiesuiou oi tiio reality ot
tho Irish Grievances bv
legal methods and those who have
sutl'ered for tho Irish cause and their
relatives and friends.
ttll'HAl-.L DAV1TT SAID
experience had shown that agitations
wero without results while move
ments bordering on revolt produced
different results. He allegod that it was
luipossiuio ior itossa to lor
get tho degrading Insults he
received while in English prison
Mr. Davitt mado tho clurge
mat tne secret police were los-
torlng tho cTutragos through their
agents, such as MoDormott.
They would lind their occupation gone
unless the scare was kopt alive. Ho
said he believed tho present outre gos
wore the precursors of more desperate
aud reckless ones in the near future,
lu conclusion Mr. Davittsnid: "England
can deal the most otloutuul blow
to the dynamiters by showing
them that the mainsprings of
Irish discontent, Dublin Castle
and landlordism, shall not continue to
1 e England's only expression of good
will toward Ireland.
WHAT CONSTABLE ( OLE BAYS.
Constable Colo, who was so terribly
injured in his attempt to
prevent tho explosion at West
minister il an. made an important
statement this afternoon. He said when
bo picked up tho bundlo on tho steps
loading to tho crypt, ho noticed that
it was very Heavy in proportion
to Its sizo. Ho determined to enrrv it
outsido tho building, because lie
saw smoke issuing from the
bundle, and bul ing it to be somo sort
of inleraal machine. Just as ho
reached tho top of the stairway he saw
an oily substanco oozing from the bot
tom of tho bundlo. This stuff buniod
his hands und compelled him to
drop tho bundle. He has no
recollection of anything that hap
pened lifter that. This statement
confirms the theory of tho police that
a chemical fuso was arranged in
such a way that it burned through
a cotton plug inserted between the
fuso and the milstanee, intending to
explode tno dynamite. A move
ment is on foot to raise funds
by popular subscription to reward Cole
for his plucky effort ayort the disasler
HE'S A STATE SECRET.
Tho man arrested to-day on sus
picion of being concerned in tho
outrage, is still iu custody
but tho polico refuse a';,
information as to his name or their rea
son for believing him guilty.
