Professor H. II. Wiley has been con-
Quoting some experiments in the manu-
facture of sugar from sorghum, Mt
Ottawa, Kansas, and is enthusiastic over
the results he has obtained. He reports
that he has succeeded in extracting over
80 per cent of the sugar contained in the
cane, leaving only 12-10O of one per cent
in the waste waters and exhausted chips
The yield of crude sugar went as high as
$50 pounds per ton of juice.
The product obtained was lighter
in color and more palatable
than that obtained by the usual method
and Professor Wiley says the results show
double the amount of sugar obtained
from given quantity of the cane. We
do not understand the published de
scription that we have seen of Professor
Wiley's process; but it is called the
diffusion method" and it is stated that
it does away with the crushing of the
cane and ut the same time takes the juice
out of it so completely That there
is only y per cent left in the
refuse. Then follows s'the process OF
carbonitation," which is explained as
adding large excess of lime to the juic,
and precipitating it with carbonic acid
II the method is one which can be EN-
ployed, without costly apparatus, on the
spot where the cane is grown, it woult
seem adapted to stimulate the growth o
sorghum by farmers. One great drawbacl
to the sorghum industry on this Peninsula
has been the labor of hauling the cane
oft'entimes two three miles, to mil
and carting back the expressed. j,nv. ~
the partly manufactured syrup; tn
quantity of sorghum cane grown by til
average farmer being two small to warrar

Instino to Mr.. Mouaba.

The following telegram appeared in
yesterdays GAZETTE:
The man McCabo arrested In Fort Worth
last night and br ught here to-day, was the
operator OF an advertising scheme. He had a
picture around which he painted mel chants
cards and hung up the picture in hotels, etc.
Some Of his patrons here say be swlndled
them,
Our Waco corr espondent was rather
hasty in his report Of the matter, as
Mr.. McCabe was not taken to Waco at
all. Mr.. Van Hall OF the Hall Detec-
tive agency ofWaco came over to see
Mr., McCabe and found that the fault
was In Messrs. Castles & Morrison,
druggists of Waco, not putting up the
frames in the hotels as soon as they
agreed to do so. This firm wanted
some change In their card, which
they agreed to moko them
selves and then put up the
frames. The other advertisers did moi
know OF the arrangement Mr. McCabt
had made with Castles & Morrison
and supposed he he had carried Off TIA,
frames. The Hall Detective agenc,
was one Of the advertisers who had
card in the frames and Mr.. Hall as
aured Mr.. McCabs upon leaving hin
that the Waco papers would public
the mater in its true character an
convince their readers OF his homes
purposes. II is the pleasure also Of Til
GAZETTE TO call the attention of Il
readers TO the facts in the case.

Five Gents an Acre,

The lease-law majority in the legis-
lRture seem determined to fix the
minimum lease price at cents an
acre. And yet these are the gentle
men who declare themselves the
friends OF the actual settler and as be-
ing opposed to the cattle syndicate
and corporation In the discussion Of
last summer, the leAse.lsw newspapers
proclaimed their purpose to make the
kings and barons pay what the grass
was worth, say from 25 to 30 cents an
acre. Have these journals no protest
to urge against the proposition ~ lease
out the lands at s cents2 In his 81 eech
" Fort Worth, Gov, Ireland alluded to
the action of the land board In rais-
Ing the minimum lease price from four
to eight cents an acre, and explained
and justified II by the declaration that
IL was done 10 save the lands 70 actual
settlers; for, said the governor, In
effect, III the board had not decreased
the lease price, the syHdlcates and cor.
porations would have sotbled all the
lands and there would not have beer
left TO the actual settler land fit L
Craze q goose on"
This lease price Of five cents an acre
taken in connection with that othei
provision Of the proposed lease law
which leases laud without competi
ton, viii accelerate leases and it's ensct
ment will be followed by Gland Ollie,
business in leases, the like OF wh,cl
has never been seen in Texas. WhA
the effect would be could only be de
monstrated by time, but THE Ga
zETrEs prediction is, that It woul,
} perpetuate the raising of cattle on
big scale and that the majority of Ia
''raisers" would live outside the state
The proposition in lis present shap
bears the mark OF some fine Italia
hand, that Is interested In perpetual
ing the kingly ranch business at IN
expense OF all others.

The Santa Fe Extension.

at the railroad meeting held in this
city on Saturday evening, matters OF
vitalimportance 70 every property own
err OF Fort Worth and rarrant county
were presented for consideration. The
Gulf Colorado & Santa Fe Railway
company have at last secured from con.
grees the Tlght Of way aeross the Indian
territory, provided that a. least one
hundred miles OF road be completed
within three years. Col. Gresham,
representing the company, now aslSs
the citizens OF Fort Worth and

secure for this extension the right OF
way, 100 feet In width, Dorthward from
this city acrOs0 TaTrsnt county, q dis.

lance Of but thirty miles. He at the
same time states that Gainesville will
grant the right Of way from that point
to the Red river in Cooke county, The
construction Of this extension sof vast
importance both TO the city and coun-
ty. II will increase the vsluea Of real
property from Is to 20 per cent. Thisis
true not only II property Immediately
contiguous TO the line OF railway, but
alec of that which lies on either side OF
the same within distance OF ten to
twenty miles. That improvement
which raises the value OF one mans
farm must, by natural law, also en-
nance the worth OF every other farm
in the vicinity Of it. The cost Of the
land for the right Of wsy viii be far
less than the increase in the values Of
property caused by the construction of
the road. Hence every dollar Of value
granted by the farmer or other citizen
In giving or in assisting to purchase
tho right of way will be not an
expenditure, but rather pay
ing investment from which almost
immediate profits will be realized.
The results of the construction OF
another line across the Indian territory
will be Of great benefit not only to this
city and county but also to all North
weet Texas. Such competing line
means better rates and consequently
higher prices for all our produce. 1t
means lower rates Of freight and there
fore more moderate prices for the vast
quantity Of manufactured material
which this section OF the state re-
ceivss from the North. 1t means an
increase of the territorial area thai
will purchase supplies from For
Worth, and it will also caus'
O decided influx of population
as new towns and citiei
are sure TO spring up along the line
Now let every property owner in thi
city and county make 1t a persona
matter to push this proposition Of tn
Santa Fe to success so far as granting
the right of way at least is concerned
and enable the committee TO shortl.
inform the directors Of the railwa
that the right OF way across Tarran
county awaits their acceptance.

IN day or two we will likely hear
that Gen, Gordon lost glove at the
siege OF Khartoum. 1t usually ends up
about that way. When the tower was
blown up the other day, in London,
people were RECALLED with vivid pic
lures Of the crowds Of woman and lit
tie children that had been torn and
mangled in the disaster. The very
screams of the victims seemed to reach
us from across the ocean. The facts
were that two police officers were in
jured and no else. SO, too, may the
report Of Gen. Gordon's brutal massa-
ere be modified. We ara told now OF
the atrocities of the Arabs and in the
next item we see that it is questionable
whether or not Gordon has been cap
tured. There is some one making
money by trafilcking in these exagger-
ated sensations. or else England iH

TEXAS CURRENT COMMENTS

The Austin Sun says: There are
more possibilities than men dream OF
in the coming political situation In
Texas.n
Apropos OF the coming gubernatorial
scramble, the Austin Sun says:
IA dispatch from Austin to the Her
aid says there Is strong sentiment IN
the legislature In favor Of Msj Elliott
for governor. L. Sullivan Ross had
better ge. his shooting-irons in order"
Dallas has now three gubernatorlsl
aspirants, Jno. II, Elliott, w. l.
Crawford and Barnett Gibbs. The
second crop will be gathered later in
the season.
The Texas Methodist is Of the opin-
ion that 1.-THE proposition to do without
the rangers is not looked upon as ia
vorable by the people Of the north
western portion Of the state. Our
people know that 1t is impossible to
preserve peace and order, and TO pre-
vent cattle-siealing in the Western
counties without the presence Of the
rangers. Even the pres ence of few
rangers is more effective in quieting
matters than all the sheriffs and depu-
ty sherifIB combined. We can't do
without the rangers yet awhile"
The Alvarado Bulletin is of the
opinion that Texas IS going through
an epidemic of reform, and says; "OuT
Lawmakers have become suddenly
very virtuous, and would make every
crime and misdemesnOr a felony.
Harsh meas ures eldom cure evils"
The Brentwood Democrat would
have the wise men at Austin 'remem
Der the admonition o. the press in re
gard to reform in the present method
Of giving publicity to public Gales

Texas OF 1885 are different affairs en-
