ance 'mpanies do business. We are view>
ing the matter simply from business stand
point and We are presenting our thoughts
and ID ,as alone in the interests of trade and
commerce and Of safety to business men and
property owners and of Justice alike to them,
TO the insurance companies and to fire de-
partments. Dallas has the lowest rates Of in
surance Of any town or city in the state.
Why is this sos the question 10 naturally
asked. Because we have water works that
AFFORD an abundant supply of water and
because the insurance companies, and they
are always well posted, believe that this city
has the most efficient fra department in The
state. The city takes care of and supports
it, department by paying all its necessary
expenses and keeps il supplied with ade-
qua.e apparatus for all its requirements.
This is of great advantage to its CONNER
cial interests. The fire department of the
different towns and cities 10 this state are all
so far as we know, volunteer, and their loss of
time and damage to clothing at fires is COM
pensated by the state. How? By exemp,ing
the members from jury, and militia duty. If
a town or city is unable or unwilling to. have q
fire department of its own, and number of
men join together, organize fire companies,
purchase engines and hook and
ladder trucks, buy their own horses,
deirsy all their own expenses and
announce to the public that they will attend
all fires and labor for their extinguishmeht
Tor certain rate of salvage on cotton mer.
chandse and buildings, and then their ser-
vices are accepted by the owner of any prop-
erty that is burning or that is ieopardized by
fire contiguous to II, such q fire department
would no doubt be eutilled to salvage from
the owner of the property, but under
no other circumstances do we
think such claim could
or ought TO be made. Under such circum.
stances at these, insurance companies would
b einformed and could shape their business
Ia such town or city accordingly. 1t
would be lamentabe indeed for any city, if
the rule should obtain that DE department
supported by that city could at its option. re-
fuse to work on species of property where
they could not get salvage on demand, or in
o.her words, should "let it burn" and the
business of that city would be very apt to
rapidly decline.

NATURE BEATEN.
One Of the Most Useful OF Mana Dis
cOvertes.


One ofths most truly remarkable, certain.
ly beneficial of modern discoveries is the
manufacture Of artificial Toe. At first it was
almost incredible to vast majority of the
people, but it has now become one of the
great industries Of the country. Constantly
has the process and machinery for It's manu-.
factuse been improved, until at last
through the instrumentality of the
new patent of the Rankin leo
Manufacturing company, quality of ice
superior to the natural is 'bsing produce
ed. This new macbiue is the patent of Mr.,
7. L. Rankin, Of New ork, aud there are
no v two of them in operation in this state,
e at Dallas and the other at Denisor. The
tory in this city has but recently been
ted, butt is now in such fine running
der that thousands Of pounds are being
turned out daily, of the clesrest, purest and
tirmest ice ever before in
Dallas. 1t is simply equal
to any lake ice ever
gathered and it il being made by an enter,
prisng company right in cur midst. An.
other gratifying fact is that it is made from
hydrsht water, and is consequently purer
and cleaner in the very nature of things. TO
natural ice. Let it now be distinctly under
stood that ice made by the RAJ kin company
is brilliant and uuquestionsble success.
The factory here is under the management of
MIR. j. W. Dorsey, an accommodating gen.
teman and an old and experienced ice
man. They are now constructing another
tank, and in few days the capacity of the
establishment will be f'om fifteen TO twenty
thousand pounds day. The machinery Is
very simple and the expense very light, and
MIR. Dorsey is prepared to supply the town
at the very lowest rates The same Company

all the important towns of Texas, and simply
propose controlling the entire ice trade of
Texas in a year or SO. 1t is not possible to
give more minute description f the pro-
cess of the manufacture of thi, ice, as it
would be oil Creek TO the
general reader, but we con.
graduate MI. R-nkin upon the success of
this browning result of his extended experi-
ments in ice manufacture. But above all,
Dallas is to be congratulated upon the Cd.
por'unity now presented to her to obtain such
ice go easily and SO cheaply. Our citizens
ave rapidly beginning to buy extensively of
Mr.. Dorsey, and some Of The largest ice
consumers in the city are now buying of him
ASclusively. 1t would pay the curious 10 90

is made.
