The Council acted wisely at its last
session in not indirectly receding from
the pledges made by the mayor and
committee which appeared before the
county court. 1t will be very I'M
wise tor the saloon interests to agitate
the question Of reduction of license.
The fact that many sober people op-
pose prohibition, as u matter ofjudg-
ment and principle, must not lead any,
one to suppose that the community
therefore indorses, or can be brought
to permit, anything like practical free
traffic in whisky. The policy of this
state is high license and local option.
This is a compromise. 1t will be al
lowed to stand, if no war is made upor
it, but if it is attacked, and the question
storced as between prohibition and free
whisky the whisky will be most certain.
ly doomed. Take the Intelligencer, fol
instance; it is opposed to prohibition
but ii is in favor of temperance anc
morality, and in a contest of this kind
one that would raise the issue in THU
town of schools VS.. saloons, it coulc
array itself upon but one side. We
say this i'll a spirit of good feeling al

played upon either side the better j
will be. The matter is settled nov

Advertising The Gazette.

The Fort Worth GAZETTE has been
better advertised by the visiting states
men from the East than any paper in
Texas. To this the management OF
that excellent daily can have no rea-
sonable objection. But the people OF
this section favoring free grass smile
at the verdancy of those statesmen
who presume that THE GAZETTE
or any other newspaper OF
modern times has pioneered them
into the advocacy OF free grass. They
inherited the right TO free grass in
new and sparsely occupied regions
from the earliest settlers. Many OF
them were raised on II, aud they can
not now see and never yet have seen
any reason why they should depart
from the uniform custom and the pol
Icy of the fathers, who made our coun-
try great and powerful, by building
homes ia the wilderness and on the
prairiss while enjoying free grass.
