MAN OR MYTH?

Young Mans Interrogatory Answered.
We wonder whether "peter smith, so
much talked OF, Is u man or II myth HouS-
ton .tge,
Having chronic charity for igno-
rance. the GAZETTE takes pleasure in
informing the frisliy youth who runs
The Age that Peter smith is Il man.
And, testing aside, no town or city in
Texas possesses u man of kinder
heart, broader charity, nober lib
rality, more practical sense and greater
enterprise. MOI to know Peter Smith
indeed, is to argue one 8 self unknown.
The history of Fort Worth's growth
nd enterprise could not be written
Without naming Peter Smith His
iand sustained every enterprise and
is name lent strength to EVERY move
ment. Peter Smith has more largely
made Fort Worth than any other one
man-and Fort Worth with but three
years of "cityn life will not decline "A
comparison with Houston. which is
heavy with age. Peter Smith is an
old Texan, with all the vim and push
that characteri2es men in any country.
More than one man--more than one
suffering famiiy-could, with tongues
OF gratitude, tell TIE Age man who
Peter Smith is; and all Houston does
not contain citizen who carries big
ger or better brain. Peter Smith is
talked of now--in fact, one could not
mention Fort Worth without thinking
of him; but the time will COME, Uncle
Daniel, Whcn he lcW be more tUtkCd
about than he is now; and when that
time comes you viii want TO 90 of and
try to licl; yourself for ever admit
ting that You did not know Peter
Smith-an honest man, the noblest
work of God

AN ASSESSORS CONVENTION
A Movement on Foot To Hold one for tbs
Purpose of Equaiizing County
aud State AssessDtppts

and state Assessments.
A GAZETTE reporter met Mr.. W. ID,
Hall. county assessor of 1arrant coun-
ty, In his office yesterday and learned
from him that II movement was on
foot to hold convention of the county
assessors of this state for the purose of
considering the various methods of
assessment and TO devise means OF
making more thorough and COM
plete assessment all over the state.
This movement started last spring,
when representative Of the Missouri
Pacific railway company invited n
number OF the county assessors to
meet him in Waco to discuss the taxa
ton of railroad property in the state.
II seems that. a. committee of five,
representing the counties of McClel-
land, Denton, Smith, Galveston and
Bexar, were appointed TO make an
effort to get the assessors together in
convention. Mr. Hall stated that
there was sometimes great trouble in
getting the proper assessment of cattle
on the border lines of counties and in
case of non.residents owning cattle.
The subject of railroad taxation is Il
veXed one in many localities and
much difference of opinion exists on
this point. He was also of the opinion
that II the comptroller, w. j. Swain,
would lend his assistance to the move
ment 1t could be accomplished, and
that the bringing together in conven-
ton of the various county assessors
would prove very material to the best
interests of the state.

1t is one of the pecularities of the
American people to devote all their
time to business, without regard to
health. In this rush for money and
fame many lives are ruined, which,
with proper attention and timely use
of II proper corrective, could 5e saved.
For this purpose there il nothing
equal to the "Prickly Ash Bitters."
1t relieves the system of all impurities,
puriilos the blood, and by assisting ma
lure, restores health and vigor.

Review of the Local Grain, Produce, and
Provision Markets

Review of the Local Grain, Produce, and
Provision Markets.
INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. Is.
Nothing new developed In the general mer-
chandise markets to-day. Possibly business ia a
little more active, but there is large for i'm
provement The grain markets show the most
activity. Many circumstances conspIre to give
buoyanoy to the breadstuffs trade. The crop
prospects in the United Kingdom show no i'm
provement to say the least Germany is import
ing unusual quantities Of wheat; France is buy
ing freely, and there are no large Accommodations
on the other side of the Atlantic. In addition,
the estimates of our yield, which in the fall
ranged from $40 DOC, 900 to 900, 000, 900 bushels,
are now reduced by some competent st atlsticians
TO 50,OoO,OOO, the figures of the agricultural
bureau being 2,7JS, 600. And then there are
reports of serious damage TO the winter wheat
in three or four of onr States. The movement eff
wheat to the primary markets is small, partly
because of snow hlockades and floods, but
chiefly because higher prices are expected.
Corn is coming forward steadily, ana there is a
considerable foreign demand for 1t. In the gro
Gerry markets sugars continue hrner. C0ffees
strong, with indications that prices will go
higher Many wellinfOnned operators have
been predicting the present boom for some time
past. The supply OF strictly fresh
times very meager. Butter, with the exception
Of strictly choice, is duh, with the supply Of
common and medium steadily accumnlatlng.
Dressed poultry continues very scarce, and
sellers have no difficulty In realizing fun prices.
There is an increasing demand for dried fruits
mud beans, but no recent change in prices. POta-
I0ts are coming on tHt marker SLOWLY, ana prices
are remarkably well sustained The supply of
apnles is light and prices strong. The pro.
vision market is unchanged, with prices strong
at quotations given.
GRAIN.
The firm tone to the grain market continues
Bulls on prices are in a cheerful mood, and on
Change bid somewhat reckless, which they are
safe in doing, so light are the receipts The
Board of Trade Price Current says of wheat:
Local markets rule STEADY at about yesterdays
prices. Our dealers, in common with the general
business public, are very active in sending help
to the suffering along the lines Of the food
swollen streams, and business, in consequence is
'omewhat inactive. We have very meager re-

East having Frustrated the wires. New YORK
