MOURNING FOR THE GAZETTE.
The Fort Worth Gazette has sus.
pended; It's suspension was caused by
financial embarrassment. IL WAS
splendid newspaper, iRr better than
the business il was doug iustitied,
or in other words, 10 was far ahead az
its town. It has been repetition OF
the experience Of the Houston Post
when u was given such boom q wear
or two ago, The only successful
newspapers axe those which pay their
own way. The Gazette will no doubt
be revived In lew days, as Fort
Worth must nave q good morning pa.

PROHIBITION.
Senator Coke and Congressman Mills
have become the target of tho prohibit
tionist3 Oh ac3lunt OF their utterauCes
against prohibition. notwithstanding
the attempts t. deny the fact, 1t atli
remains that there will be very big
split in The r8uk5 o tha Democracy, on
account Of the prohibition issue, and
when men who ClGiu TO have voted
nothing but q Democratic ticket for 20
years, say thst they will vote for pro

"DOWN WITH PROHIBITION
The prohibition question il not, or
at Least il should uOt be . d!ctation Of
personal rights snd liberties, but it is
to sever the government iruIu the evil

We do not believe that tho establish
ment OF the Dallas News al Dallas wi
seriously interfere with the busiuei
OF tho Sherman dailies, morning
evening. IfsO, then our business me
had as well move 10 Dallas and hay
done with it. The idea that the bus
ness men of Sherman will withdra
their patronage from their home p
perg, and so cripple them That the
will be forced TO suspend, Is absul
and ridiculous in tho ONrOme, A.
the newspapers Of Dallas published
the interest OF Sherman or GraysC
county that they should DO foster,
and sustained by our people? NOT

papers in the upbuilding Of Sherman
If there interests were conferred he
they would undoubtedly move here,
IL the Dallas News or any other 7
pers expect TO mOuopoliza the new
paper business in North Texas tn
had as well rid themselves Of tho {

A BIG FOOL,

perhaps the biggest pooling arrani
meut ever made. IL embraces soy
main lines, and the gross earnings

season will be little, II any, less til
S25,000,00 The effects Of the assoc

in tho way Of oquitably adjusted a
uniform rates, and charges low
