The Gazette and the Branch Of Su'
prene Court.

A few days ago the GAZETTE had
occasion 20 commend the beauties Of
the truth telling propensities OF the
Dallas Times, and TO lament its pain
ful awkwardness when ii deyiated
from this conImendable virtue. This
has been made more impressive by the
following excerpt from the columns
oftbe Times. In discussing the loca-
ton OF branch of the supreme court
nj Dallas, the Times says:
The Fort Worth GAZETTE, hoping 10 build
up itself on the pTeludiees. ofpeThaps, a few

II cannot, II does not attempt Ia give "a fes-
son FOR It's opposition. Dallas wants II and
that Is enough. The name OF Dallas II a red

pie. Yet It's siiiy-we mean whs, that

that Dallas shall be disappointed.
We are willing that branch OF The higher

do not dictate the town. We ask only that
which the people ask That n branch Of the
court shall be placed in north Texas. II has
more litigation, because u has more people.

this knows the feeling on the subject yet. IL
Ignores those Wishes, lis vii Ing to deny
north Texas everything II asks for, just be-
cansc Dallas Is a small part Of north Texas
There is one sufficient answer to the
above, and that is that there Is not
scintilla Of truth in the whole article,
30 far as il relates to any opposition on
the part Of the GAZETTE, to the loca-
ton of branch Of the supreme court
1t Dallas. The GAZETTE defes the
Times or any one else to point out a
single utterance, paragraph, sentence,
line. word or syllable which justifies
the assertion it makes against the
GAZETTE. II owes II to it.
self to reproduce the article, or any
portion of one--or must plead guilty of
misrepresentation of the most willful
character. VIII the Times point out
the place where, and time when, the
GAZETTE urged any opposition TO the
pet ambition Of Dallas to have a
branch of the supreme court located at
TINT village.

And What Then2


Strange and unaccountablc things
are coming to pass. The world wags
on in its usual way, but progression in
all things makes change in customs
and II want of gullantry among men.
American society is now threatened
with new evil and one which casts
n reflection upon the chivalry and
courtesy of the men of modern times.
Affairs Of the heart, and which in
volve the tender passion, seem 10 be
more numerous than In ancient
times, but they are characterized
by degree of practicability which
threatens to overthrow the pleasant
social intercourse which once occupied
the minds of all people of all grades
and all shades of belief. The follow
Ing advertisement appears in an East
ern paper:

Who is NELLIE, would he the first
question asked. Many people would
proceed to place her In the category OF
adyenturesses. But that would do her
an injustice. She Is eminently respect
able and belongs TO n well-known
and wealthy family. She wants Ia
so toa public entertainment and has
no big brother To accompany her and
must necessarily call In some other
girls big brother 10 perform the duties
which her own would in all probable
ity decline, IL she had one. Men are
Mt n good premium aud women ut y

The days for real, old-styled,
genuine pleasure in the social world
are past. This fact portcnds many
great evils. The permanency ofthe
"church sociablep IL threatened. 1t
places the young man of the period in
such hopeless relations to the future
and such state in regard to
the present that generation
of bachelors are likely To
be thrown upon an innocent and un.
suspecting world. II seriously affects
the sources of gossip, the channels Tor
scandal and the hopes of moneyleS,
narriagable women. II impairs the
prospects of the fashionable tailor and
cripples the trade of the energetic mill
liner. 1t consigns 10 ignominy the

disappointment to that class OF people
who would walk many leagues to see a
wedding, and decreases the uses of
Memberships March. The pro.
fessionM usher's occupation will be
gone and the society reporters of the
morning papers will mourn that Il is.
Verify, there is a prospect for great
revolution. II Is impossible To con
ceive what the results may be. A
complete reversion of the social Gus
toms may follow. And IL II doess No
matter. IL will not make affairs
worse. IL may better them. AT any
rate, the change will be novel and
necessarily popular for a while, and
may accomplish great good TO all man
