'ou are to have on the 17th.
uinst, inspired by prlnd-
r patriotism, drawn together
links of soldier, love,
led over by the genius of thft
faith, which while it remem-
i affection and pride, the
> devotion and unsurpaas-
ralor of late comrades—living
dead—looks also to the future
ith ! cheerfulness and hope. For
! is proverblal that the best sol-1
^ers in our late war, both Confed-
) and Federal, make the best
citizens in peace. Such comming
of kindred and opposing sphv
i ylts does much to allay antagonism
' work a proper appreciation off
l present, and excite high hope
u future. Such re-unions re-
incidents of camp, of march,
fhattle; and while it gives them
lie touch and tone of legendary
lore, places them at the command
of those who will treasure them for
Mtature histories. Many of the hap-
- piest and brightest incidents—es-
j| peclally those most redolent with
| personal charms—connected with
our unequal but glorious Confeder-
ate struggle are yet in legendary
form, and should be preserved for
-historic use, when the sunlight of
’froth and justice shall have dispen-
sed the clouds of passion and preju-
dice. Such re-unions, to those un
written facts, is but “the art pre-
?;8ervatlve.” The patriotism, gal-
; lantry and glory of our inter-state
,, strife belongs to no section, but to
all, and when the abrasions of yes-
terday and to-day shall have worn
smooth, history will so write it.
How inviting the scene will be of
a Vast number of our ex-Confeder-
ate comrades, assembled from
points remote, with here and there
auold patriot of San Jacinto fame,
and a few Mexican veterans, who
in their young manhood moved
upon the Block Fort at Monterey,
l ^bver the heights of Beuna Vista,
and under the fire of many subse-
quent battles in that great war, of
which Texas was the cause and
consequence—men who brought
back with them from Montezuma
Land permanent peace and a terri-
■ torial empire. Yes, all these as-
sembled, and peacefully and social-
ly commingling on the soil of Tex-
as, will be no common ev^nt We
hope every ex-confederate soldier
in the state will attend.

DBUNKENNEHtqOH THE DEC REESE.
Notwithstanding tbe lamenta-
ble increase of drunkenness, pau-
perism, etc., depicted by tbe pro-
hibitionists, it ie a fact that in
large cities where these matters
•re closely watched by tbe author-
ities, and where a more accurate
port can be obtained, that the
past forty or fifty years show a
marked decrease in drunkenness,
poverty and crime. The New
York Star in speaking of this mat-
ter, editorially, a few days since,
said: “A government document
gives these figures of tbe per capi-
•ta consumption ot whisky, wine
end beer forty seven years ago and
last year:
Gallons.

Prohibitionists will probably
reason from these figures that
drunkenness and the vice and mis-
ery which it entails are on the in-
crease. This deduction, however,
would not be altogether a safe one
ke. The police court records
es \Mich have been publish-
pear to show that so far
is any marked change in the
o per person of arrosts for in-
dication, the change is a de-

Temple is on the ;rand Atchison-
Gulf trunk line, which embraces
nearly 8,000 miles of railway.
Temple is on the main line of the
Missouri Pacific which embraces
and controls nearly 10,000 miles of
railway.
Travel is heavy on all the roads,
and the tide between those travel-
ing north and those bound south is
about evenly balanced.
Ten regular passenger trains
now arrive and depart from Tem-
ple every day, and, including the
accommodation trains on the Santa
Fe, there are thirteen daily pas
senger trains.
Temple will continue to be divi-
sion headquarters for the conduc-
tors on the new runs as well as the
old. The run of conductors under
the new arrangemement will be
from Galveston to Temple and from
Temple to Purcell, in the Indian
Territory.
Yardmaster Carnahan has been
promoted to a conductorship and
will take one of the new through
passenger runs when the new sche-
dule goes into effect. His succes
sor as yardmaster has not yet been
named. J. N. Cole is another of the
new conductors.
Conductor J. E. Barker brought
his family back on No. 1, yesterday
and says they ail had a glorious
time at Galveston. Conductor
Barker goes out on No. 2 to-day
and leaves Galveston to-morrow as
conductor of the first through train
on the Kansas City and Galveston
run.
Only the north bound trains on
the Missouri Pacific and the Santa
Fe now make close connection at
the junction, as the south bourn
train on the Santa Fe passes down
about forty minutes ahead of the
south bound Missouri Pacific.
The following stations on the
Santa Fe are announce d as open
for business: On the line of the
road in the Nation north of Gaines-
ville. Thackerville, Marietta,
Overbrook, Ardmore, Berwyn,
Daugherty, Washita, Winnewooc
Paul’s Valley, Pa«.la, Wayne and
Purcell. On the line north of La-
donia: Ben Franklyn, Roxton,
Ambia and Paris.
The new Texas Express messen-
gers who now make their head-
quarters in Temple and make the
runs on the through Santa Fe
trains are, L. Trimble, John
Mershon, D. T. Elgin, (‘Little Don,’)
E. C. Groce and J. W\ Alexander
on the north run and C. L. McKen-
zie, Don Driscoll, J. S. Crozier, J.
T. Mallard and Jerry Brasher on
the south run.
“The road, that puts its trains
through first and gets there in the
best shape, is the road that is going
to haul the passengers,” said an
old railroader yesterday in discuss-
ing the new timo card and the
through express trains on 'the
Santa Fe. 'The struggle between
the Santa Fe and the Missouri Pa-
cific for through traffic will be
sharp.

The new trains on the Santa Fe
now render it necessary for the
Missouri Pacific to shorten up its
time and put its trains into Sedalia
n season to make closer connec-
tions for the north than are made
at present.
The through trains between Gal-
veston and Kansas City stop only
at junctions and county seat sta-
tions and the run of nearly a thous-
and miles is made in the fast time
of 36 hours. From the above card
it will be seen that the accommo-
dation train for Belton and the
west leaves 30 minutes earlier than
by the old schedule and the regular
passenger from that direction ar-
rives here at 1:85, nearly an hour
earlier than at present This is to
make connection with the south
bound train which, uhder the new
card arrives at 1:40 and leaves at
2 for the south.
The first through express train
fiom Galveston to Kansas City
reached Temple at 12:10 a.m. yester-
day. The train was made up of new
coaches throughout and was pulled
by engine No. 4, just out of the
shops, with that old veteran en-
gineer; Roxie Reese, presiding in
the cab. Conductor W. L. Kelsey,
who has been transferred from the
Montgomery branch, had charge
of the train, which was gaily deco-
rated with flags and bunting. On
the northward trip from here en-
gine No. 21, with R. L. Fleming at
the throttle, pulled the train and
ex-yardmaster Sam Carnahan held
down the conductor’s “sit,” There
were eighteen through passengers
aboard from Galveston and two
were added here, being Mr. W. H
Willis, of P.J. Willis & Bro., Gal-
veston, and Rev. L. Shaefle, of the
German church of this city. No
through train from Kansas City
came down yesterday morning.
The new time card takes effect
on the Atchison-Gulf, to-morrow at
4 o’clock in the afternoon, and the
first through Galveston and Kan-
sas City express train will pas?
through Temple at 12:10 a. in., Mon
day. The arrival and departure of
all regular passenger and accom-
modation trains on the new sched-
ule is as follows:
Going north, train arrives 3:25 p.
in., departs 3:30 p. m. Night Ex-
press arrives 12:10 a. in., departs
12:15 a. m.
South bound, arrives 1:40 p. ni.
leaves 2 p. m.; night express, ar-
rives 3:35 a. m.. leaves 3:40 a. m.
