tlcFk i4fnuSrl, no upNDt f,noNsiN
Affects our western trade, 10 IL ridiculous
and almost incredible to be told that tina,
matter placed in the Dallas post-o2ice
to night reaches Fort Worth about the
same hour that the matter placed in the
Galveston office tonight does, bat such is
the fact. So far rs newspapers and night
mailed matter are concerned, we are as far
/ from Fort Worth as are Houston and Gal
weston, and all owingt to the schedule of one
train passing westward through our city.
That matter of such decided importance
TO our whole city should have been left I'M
attended to 30 lonb is indeed singular,
and those officials who regulate the
schedule time upon the Texas &
Pacific should at once have their
attention directed to the perhaps uninten-
tional, but still damaging discrimination
against us as com AIRED with other large
towns in the premises. IL seems to US as
but Just and reasonable that important
points, with heavy mails and large
and valuable interests depending Oh
the rapid transmission thereof, should
always be regarded, especially in
adopting time tables and schedules.
To overlook, such considerations
and ignore such paramount interests is, to
put it mildly, exceedingly costly and dam
aging neglect, so far as the towns arc con
cerned. At Fort Worth the schedules
are admirably arranged to suit the
commercial and epistolary worlds, rs an
early morning train leaves with the
mails on each one of our busy neighbours
many roads, and on each one OF them also
the evening train brings the citizens their
Matchmaker from distance. IL should be
so here. What we want is such schedule
time on our various lines as will prevent
mails from remaining anywhere from
twelve to twenty-four hours in the
Office here before any train ar
rives to carry them away. We have
no doubt that this desirable result can be
attained if the proper steps are taken in
the right way, and by the proper par
ties to direct the attention OF the
railroad officials TO the pres
ont defective service and the impor lance
and real necessity for improving it. The
business men are most deeply inter
csted and they should at once take the mi.
tiatvo. Such bodies as the Board OF Trade
and the Merchants Exchange ought ct once
to take the matter in hand and work inces-
sanity until the evil is remedied. An urg-
cnt appeal accompanied by a plain state
ment OF facts will undoubtedly accomplish
what is needed. In view of its importance
we trust that the bodies referred to and the
business men generally will arouse them.
selves and act promptly in the premises.
