Fort Worth and Waco.

FORT WORTH ls an excellent cross
roads town, but when people are in
earnest about settling permanently In
Texas, they try to get within trading
reach OF Waco, Waco's immense cot
ton business is the attraction, together
with her safety from bonded Indebted
ness--and other advantages. The Fort
viii doto camp at until one learns lust
where the rich heart of Texas is
located. Waco Examiner.
Let us see. Assertions are good
enough in their place, but what of the
figures?
In 1860, McLennan county had 62O6
people and Tarrant, then frontier
county, had 5000. The Indians made
1t warm for the greater part of the
next decade and, in 1870, McLennan
had 1850 inhabitants, while the
population of Tarrant actually fell
back to 57SS. In 1850, however, the
score stood; McLennan, 26 1854; Tar
rant, 2l,67l-McLennan having in.
creased an hundred-fold while Tar,
rant had added 400 per cent. In the
same length OF time. The next census
will show the population OF 'Tarrant
to be at least double that of McLennan
So much for the counties.
AS to the cities, respectively, of Waco
and Fort Worth, the Examiner will not
deny that Waco was long In the race
before the Fort stripped for the con.
test. The recent elections tell the re.
suit: In November last Fort Worth
cast over $500 votes; at its recent mu.
nicipsl election, in which Waco polled
the largest vote IT ever cast, there
were only s0ll voters. Let Waco be
content to contest the palm OF growth
and greatness with Dallas, Austin and
Houston. II is not in the race with
Fort Worth.

A Pandora's Box.

Texas will have to deal with the
land syndicates one of these days
sometime soon, or a veritable Pando.
ra's box OF trouble will be opened up to
us in the future. Men and corporations
must be checked in their efforts to buy
up whole counties of land and thus
create number of Independent prin.
CAPABILITIES In the body of the state. The
statesmanship of the future, so far as
Texas Is concerned, will consist in de.
wishing ways TO correct the abuses which
have already grown up from this
cause. We should like to see a little
OF the best thought of Texas take hold
of the subject Waco Examiner.
The Examiner maintains that more
than one-hslf Of Texas is fit only for
grazing purposes. If this be true,
then the land law should be
framed with reference to the adapt
ability of the country, and 1t
should be consecrated to live
stock raising. This can only be
done by permitting men or syndicates
to control land enough Tor the purpose.
Logically, therefore, according to the
Examiners view, and since that paper
opposes the sale OF lands in large
bodies, the lands should be leased In
perpetuum.
III the state will do this, II it will
enact law that will give lessees
absolute and undisturbed control of the
lands, In quantities to suit, even in ten.
year lease'holds, The GAZETTE is con-
fident that the state can secure twenty
or twenty-five cents an acre annually
for these lands.
If the lands are unfit for farming
purposes and IL they are sacre d trust,
that law ought TO be passed which
VIII yield the greatest revenue to the
school fund-snd that law is one that
would provide for perpetual lease
and that would forbid sales.

A State Temperance Convention to
Meet In Fort Worth.
FoRr woErn, TEX. April n. 1N

FORT worth, TEX, April IL, 1855.
To the Ministers of the Several Churches In
Fort Worth and Vicinity,
The undersigned Is in receipt of a
letter from Col. T.. l.. Dohoney OF
Paris, Tex, chairman OF the executive
committee Of the Prohibition party Of
this state, stating that he wishes to
call convention Of that party and Of
the temperance.workers in this state,
to meet at Fort Worth at an dav early,
say in June, to take into consideration
such measures as may be leemed ad.
visable for the interests of the great
cause OF temperance.
be seems to think, as we all do, that
the action OF the state senate at its
late session in Austin, In refusing to
submit a constitutional amendment
touching on the question of Prohibi-
ton, to vote of the people in answer
TO petitions signed by more than 3d.
600 OF the best citizens of the state, is
80 unDemocratic, so unAmerican, 80
like the despotism of Russian autocra.
cy as to leave TO the people no hope of
fair treatment by that body for years
" Cuuic. Anu ne seems 10
deem 1t important now that the pro.
hibitionists and friends of temperance
In this state meet together in conyen-
ton, and adopt the line OF action that
will be most likely to secure them the
right for which they lately humbly
pelitione and rebuke that whisky
cursed senate for its insult to their
virtue and intelligence
To these ends then allow me to sug-
gest that you each submit to your
members and friends proposition
that we, as citizens of Fort Worth and
vicinity, will open our hearts and
houses and do what we can properly
to entertain the members OF such con-
venlion during the day or two they
may be here as delegates. And in the
meantime let no friend of this great
cause be idle or indifferent, but let us
work together that we may insure
succe So. j. M. THOMSON,
OF the executive committee.
