J882. D.nvn hero , twelve hundred
mill's awiiy , south and west of Omaha ,
jn the hiitorio state of Texas , it may
not bo unintaroating to say Bomoihiuy
of its hiutnry imd resources , otc.
"Texas , " in the Indian language ,
means "friend , " but its mysterious
application to that vast territory ,
lying between tinbinu nud El Paso and
the gulf , llio Grande and Hod riucro ,
has not yet been fully defined. They
sny llobert do LaSallo , with a .French
colony , built a fortress near Mata-
gorda bay , on the gulf , in 1085 , and
named it St. Louis , in honor of the
king of Franco. The Indiana ROOM
exterminated the colony. In 108'J , n
Spanish colony attempted the occupa
tion of Texas , which was dispersed
and brokou up by disease and thu
Indians. During thirty years , from
IC'.IO to 1720 , the Spanish Roman
Catholics established several missions
atid fortresses in Texas , which were
occupied by Monks and Friars , and
soldiers sent to defend them. Within
a century from their establishment ,
these Sp.mish missions were one after
another abandoned , and to-day thu
crumbling ruins and frowning frag
ments of those mission buildings at
test the devotion and labors of the
Christian auibasBitdura of the old
world. I frequently visited three of
those ruins m > ar San Antonio.
In 1752 u silver mine was discover
ed near the Mission of San S.ibu ,
The savages , heretofore friendly ,
made an'onslaught on the mission ,
and slow all that were there , not one
escaping. The efforts of Franco and
Spain to effect a permanent occupation
of Texas , failed. In 1821 , Mexico
throw off the Spanish yoke , and thus
Texas became a tributary of Mexico ,
and from that year forward the colonization
nization of Texas by citizens of the
United States began and continued.
Stopun P. Austin is justly credited
with the American colonization of
Texas , having furnished the colonists
homes , otc. In 1830 , its American
population is said to have numbered
twenty thousand , when the then dictator
tater of Mexico , Bustamanto issued a
decree , forbidding any citizen of the
United States from settling therein.
In 1835. the oqlojiists hold meetings
and tooK "Stops to secure a separate
government.
Santa Anna , havingsuccooded Jiuata-
mftiite as dictator , sent large bodies of
soldiers to quell the revolutionary
spirit of the colonists. The opening
battle was fought at Gonv.alefl. In
1835 ( October ) a largo bjdy of Mexi
cans attacked a detachment of Tux-
aiiB on the banks of thu Sau Antonio
river ; the Mexicans were completely
routed , and Hod , leaving their dead
upon the battle field. Oil the ltd of
November , 1835 , the Texans elected a
govnrnor , provisionally , and adopted
a declaration , setting forth that Texas
no longer owed allegiance to the Mex
ican republic. In , January , 183(1 ( ,
Santa Anna equipped an army of
7,000 picked men , and placing himself
at their head , marched into Texas.
The defiant attitude of that brave lit
tle band of one hundred and sovonty-
fivomen , under Col. Travis , may bo re
peated hero , and compared favorably
with the patriotio valor of the three
hundrad Spartans at Thermopylae un
der Lvomdas. The Kiuall uarrisun
was surrounded by the whole Moxicuti
army , and sumiuond to surrender.
This was refused. A bombardment
ensued , and was continued from the
25th of February Ui the Oth day of
March , 1830. On that inornini ! the
besiegers made an assault upon the
garrison , The particulars of that
struggle can never be known. The
heroic little band among whom was
Uavy Crockett exhausted by inces
sant toil , were at length destroyed.
Of the number within the walls , only
two escaped , a woman and a child. I
have visited the ruins of thu old f > r-
trcss located in an obscure cornur of
the Alamo Plawi , San Antonio , wliura
it remains unobserved , and distin
guished only by the same old , iron-
barred windows , about three feet
square , and fifteen foot above the level
of the street , that admitted thu sun's
rays and enemy's fire in 1830. The
conflict hero ia characterized by some
as the massacre , by others the mar
tyrdom fcf the Alamo. On tlw 21st of
April , 1830 , the decuive buttle wan
fought on the banks ofthoSanJacinto
river , which resulted in the total rputo
of the Mexican army , and the capture
of Santa Anna , and secured the inde
pendence of Texas. In March , 18,17.
the Congress of the United States no.
knowledged the independence ol
Texas. In 1837 , so acknowledged bj
France. lu 1840 , by England , Hoi
Jand , and liulgium. In 1H45 , luxai
was annexed to the United Status ,
Its population to-day is estimated al
fcbout 2,000,000. It has a territon
of 274,370 < iciuarouulo8or 17fiB87,84 (
acres , and is the lurgcst state in tin
Union. It ia larger than France 01
Great Britain , and lucks only abou
4,000 square mites of b'eing as largi
as the combined area of New York
Pennsylvania , Ohio , North Carolina
Indiana and Illinois.
It has ICfl organized counties , am
is divided into 32 judicial districts
At the time of admission into ( hi
Union , Texas owned atid retainec
control of the public domain , so tha
titles emanate from the gtato , ant
not from the United Stateg , It is i
vasi inclined prairie , with a gradual J
descent from the Gulf of Mexico.
Tlti'coast bounties are nearly level
lor sixty or eighty miles inland. The
surface tUon becoiiu-s undulating , with
alternate ( [ radual elevations nml de
pressions , and this fenturo increases -
creases until it becomes hilly ,
and finally mountainous in some
of the far western counties. The
highest rouges , however , d not attain
a higher altitude than fi,000 feet.
Stock graze all the winter. Field
work can bo done at all eoasons of the
year. Thuautnmur heat is BO tem
pered by cool and refreshing breezes
from the soacoait as to rondot it less
oppressive than inthonorthcrn states
The nights are delightfully cool and
plc'apant , Immigration 1ms recently
poured into Texan in a continuous
stream. Politically , the state is
largely democratic , but an independ
ent movement is on fool and gaining
strength daily. The party In power
have necoino arrogant and dictatorial.
A nomination , no matter how un
worthy the nniiiinup , is equivalent to
an election , so 'that ' the convention ,
as in Nebraska , in some instances ,
nid not the ballot box , is the arbiter
cif the pen | lo's dettiny , and thinking
men look upon the domocr.ilic ma
jority as a hideoun monster that it
would bo a blcRUim to destroy. Texas
is growing so rapidly that it is out
growing im old prejudices. I'aity
name has a strong influence upon pco-
pie , but when they discover that it is
only a name to cover the operations ol
u private political 'corporation thuy
will revolt.
There are thounaiidn of men in
Tciiis who have allilialcd with the
majority , but who have no sjmpithy
with its truits , and now chafe under
the political slavery they are sub
ject to , and who , convinced that the
parly has outlived its usefullness , aio
anxious to renounce its control. It is
coniM)8cd | ) of incongruous elements ,
and the work of disintegration goes
on , notflilonUy either , mid will con
tinue until the fabric falls. I'arty
names are becoming insignificant.
( Jrcat benefits may bo accomplished
by now organization , and BO , upon the
good sense and patriotism of the now
patty , depends the success of this in
dependent movement. Col. Wash
ington Jones , or as ho is fatniliarly
known , Wish. .Jones , is the reput
ed leader of this now move
ment. AH an individual , and
public man , ho atanda high. Ilia
character is irreproachable. The poo-
pie of his district have twice elected
him to congress * over the democratic
nominee , and multitudes of the tlio-
satisfied democracy are daily adopting
his views. A healthful innovation is
infusing its consequent vitality , and
Texas is awaking from long democratic
slumbering. The railroads on her
northern and southern boundaries ,
and those penetrating her interior ,
are importing from the northern and
easturn states the elements of a new
life ; and the largo subsidies of land
and money granted by the republic of
Mexico to American railroad enter
prise within her territory naturally
invite capital to Texan , and with it
talent calculated to diffuse new and
vigorous thought. It is by way of the
Texas railroads that American enterprise -
prise must and will penetrate Mexico ,
developing the latent wealth also of
the Lone Star state , of which some
politicians propose to make four (4)A
But ox-Oovurnor Hubbard has said
this will occur only "when San .1a-
cinto shall bo forgotten , and the mar
tyrdom of tjio Alamo shall fade from

Call fpr a State Convention to Muko
tbo Illinois RiillroiKla Comply
with the Law.
A committee appointed for the pur
pose , at a conference of. prominent
citizens , have issued a call for a state
convention to consider thu railroad
question , which reads as follows :
All citizens of Illinois who are in
iivor of compelling the railroad cor-
lorations doing business within this
tatu to comply with the lawu , and of
ecuring a schedule of rates that will
be equitable to all parties and
'ndustries , are invited to meet in
: onvontion at the state house
n Springfield , on Wednesday , March
15 , 1882 , for the purpose of organiz-
ng the etato and placing every county
n charge of an intelligent , energetic ,
uul discrixjt committee , to detect , re
port and prosecute every violation of
ho laws by the corporations , and to
nitwit such measures us shall insure
justice being done the people by the
agents of the law who have its en
forcement in hand. In view of the
Fact that the railroad corporations
mvo for years boon openly disregard-
.iii { and defying the law , and are to day
lixing theirown rates regardless of legal
provisions , except when their inter
ests are fully served by a schedule of
ratea which in many respects is unjust
to the shippers , and must bo revised ;
that they have been and are discrim
inating against individuals , commu
nities and industries ; that they have
been and are evading taxation , mid by
such and various other ways shoul
dering upon our citizens an indirect
burden of taxation which annually
amounts to from $100 to $300 pur
capita this call for a convention in
the interest of simple justice and tlio
supremacy of law should enlist the
sympathy and co-operation of every
law-abiding citizen.
The olocction of delegates is lixqd
for Wednesday , March 8 , and all citi-
zuiw in sympathy with the object * of
the convention will bo admitted' ,
wheUior regularly accredited as delegates -
gates or not. The call is signed by
A. .1. fitrootor , 1) . W. Wood , George
F. Huding , Milton George , John S.

A BREAK FOR LIBERTY ,
Dospornto Conflict Between
Prisoners and Jailor in
Plattsmouth.
Hill Bittern , tbo Horao Tiller , Eucapos
Jourwl , ( MurcU\
A terrible wave of excitement
swept over the town last evening
about hull-past < i , caused by the
announcement that two of the pris
oners in the connly jail had attacked
the jailer and beaten him in a Bavago
manner , and ono of thorn Imd made his
esc'ipo. On a visit to the jail Mr.
iVilin , thu jailor , wan found to bo m
the hands of Dr. Livingston , who
was binding up several ugly wounds
about his head. Mr. Point's clothing
was covered with blood and it was
evident that ho had suCorod a severe
charge from the desperadoes. The in
mates of the jail at the time of the
attempted delivery were Bill Hitters ,
in for horse stealing ; H. II. Ilnrtimj-
ton , whoso teal nme is ITciiry Volck-
111,111 , conlined for theft and forgery
while in the employ of Mr. Krank
Cfirruth , and .John Buckingham , the
man who was in from ( Jcdar Creek on
a peace warrant for threatening the
life of U. 0. Mallard , and was lodged
ia jail in default of S.'IOO bail.
Mr. I'olin tells .the particulars as
follows :
At supper time Mr. I'olin went as
usual to take the prisoners their sup
per , bnt , being in a hurry , ho neg
lected to tnko the usual precaution by
locking them in tlieir cells before ho
opened the jail door. Just us lie
swung the heavy iron door part way
open and was setting the tray with
their suppers upon it down upon the
stand or bench near the door , Hart-
ington and Hitters made a rush for
him , Ilnrtington striking him
with a slung shot , which he
had secured by some mya-
torious means , and Hitters striking
out rapidly and wrecklossly with his
fista. Buckingham , it is probable ,
was not in league with the two des
peradoes , but ho was frightened BO
that ho was unable to render the
jailer any assistance. Notwithstand
ing the fact that there were two of
them , the plucky jailor wrestled man
fully from the door of the iron cage ,
across the room and out of the jail
building , holding tightly to both of
them and calling at the top of his
voice for assistance , while Ilarting-
ton was belaboring him over the head
with the slung hot and Bitters was
doing ollectivo damage with his fists.
Once outside tko door Hitters freed
himself Irani the grasp of the oflicor
and started oil'at his host speed. The
ollicor then choked Llartingtoii into
submission , took him back into his
cell , locked him in and cimo out
reeking with gore , only to meet tardy
assistance just coming to his rescue.
Bitters , on gaining his freedom ,
struck for the cut on Third street ,
down toward the railroad shops. Ho
went without hat or coat. He was
mot by several people who were com
ing up town from the vicinity of the
hops , and when they stopped to see
what lie was running for , ho would
shout at them to hurry on down to
the jnil "for they are killing H man
down thoro. " L'he last aeon of him
ho was on the road leading out of
town to the south , going in the dark
ness at the top of Ins speed. Hart I
ington says that the plan agreed upon
was to overpower the jailor , escape
together and cross the river into Iowa
before morning , hitters , as soon as
his liberty was opened before him ,
deserted Hartington and loft him to
his fate , which was an ignominious
failure.
1'iirtits were soon posted at every
point in the country through which
vho poorly-clad fugitive would have to
PUSH. Telograma and postal cards
have informed every ollicor of the
law for miles up and down both Bides
of the river of hm escape , and they
buvo boon furnished with a doscrip-
iou of his person. Ho is bad medi
cine , and the law can ill afford to lose
ts grasp upon him. Ho tras under
lonlineinent for stealing horses in this
ounty some years ago , Sheriff Hyors
laving captured him at Sioux City
oinetliing over a month since. It is
o bo hoped that his destitute condi-
ion may load to his identification.
After tlio wounds of the jailor wore
Ircssed ho sailed out , and by numer-
us threats anddomonstra ions of yio-
once forced the avowal from Harting-
on that the slung ahot had boon given
0 Bitters by a man who waa conlined
1 few days since for drunkenness , one
\1. Sexton , who lives just outside of
this city.
The murderous weapon waa after
ward found , and consisted of a ball of
oad about the ai/o of a hen's egg , fas-
: ened to the end of a wrist strap.
Hartington had dropped it in the mud
when I'olin choked him at the cast
end of the jail.
Sheriff Hyora was soon out looking
for a trace of thu culprit , but up to
time of going to press none have been
gained. Hyora ia determined to
catch him if tiioro is any possibility
of doing so. Another lesson that it
will undoubtedly teach the jailor ie
that it ia best to thoroughly search o
priioner's sleeve before putting him in
the pen.
