The Object of the Meeting and What It Is Proposed to Do. Dun visit, Aug. 29. The deep water conveution has been in session three days, and aaide from the agitation of the ques tion of a harbor for oceun steamships on the gulf, nothing will be accomplished. The convention very wisely has tnken occasion to say to the large delegations present from Corpus Christi, Galveston and Arkansas Pass, "you must keep the whole subject of location in the yeas, to be settled by competent government tn gineers." The attendance from all of the western states shows a growing interest in the subject. Pet Imps less than one hundred Nebraska people have ever giv en the subject any consideration. THE ItEAL QUESTION. The state of Texas is fust awakening from her slumber and begins to realize that her commercial prosperity can lie as sured if -ho can bring ocean ships to her shores and load them with western grain and beef, which supplies are now shipped by rail to New York. It is claimed that the western farmer will effect a great sav ing in. cqsf- qf trnnsporUtiun by opening up the gulf route. If such is the case, and it looks reasonable, Jiejmblican will heartily favor the project. It will always be my pleasure to advocate any movement which is cajdjlnted to aid that large agricultural class wjth whpm I have always been identified, and the que in whose prosperity eyey business man is iuterested. I have no desire to go into statistics at this time. Governor Thayer has given the matter considerable study, and he clearly demonstrated in his open ing speech (hji aferpqon tiat a deep water harbor on the Texas shore would enable the western farmer to hettep prices for hi- pioduets. WHAT MUST BE DONE. The subject must be agitated until the congressional delegations in the west and south will unite and pass nn Slpy&priar tion for the necessary harbor facilities, which are required for the largest ocean steamships. Of course the movement will be opposed by eastern railways, YtliifU are i&teresied in the big haul, but that opposition can be overcome. For the purpose of agitation the Denycr conven tion will result in much good. It is pro posed to hold a convention in Tore:a, Kansas, to be iVilowed by a rousing one in Omaha, where steps will be taken to place the keystone in the deep water and to le enacted by the wesf and sQtJi. When tl.o Um6 '.oies, timuha must put on her lest clothe9 and give thft business men of the Lone Stare a royal welcome. THE NEBIIASKA DELEOATION. Some forty-eight Nebraska people are h.ere from Neh.rus.ka, ad J.le it ' ftUout as follows; The IIou. John M. Thayer, Max Meyer, William N. Nason, John F. Boyd, G. M. Nattinger, Colnoel C. S.

Corinth, D. A. Campbell. The delegation unanimously selected Col. Chase for temporary chairman, but Colorado captured the position before the Nebraska people could present their candidate. Besides Col. Chase declined to allow the use of his name if it would antagonize the candidacy of Gov. Thayer for permanent chairman. This doop water convention will adopt some resolutions, appoint an executive committee to consider the subject during the recess, and adjourn. Some members are of the opinion that but one more meeting will be necessary, but the major ity incline to the belief that neither Kap sas nor Nebraska are as yet thoroughly informod as to the importance of the subject.

A girl who has written a good many maga zine Stories, and has succeeded in getting n few published, confided to me that slid had been told that the readers pf tho uiagatines hail ri system of sfcor-et marks which they put bit vcj&iited manuscripts so that, although to an ordinary eye a manuscript appeared per fectly clean, tho initiated could at ouce tell whether it had been offered to an editor be,: fore.
