THE GAZETTE is just now engaged
in the pleasant task of depicting the
benefits to Fort Worth OF the exten.
sion of the Fort Worth & Denver City
railway northwestwaTd. THE GA.
zErrE il very much gratified TO have
the aid of the Dallas Herald In point
ing out the advantages ofa railroad into
the great Northwest. Our good neigh
Dor, Of course, directs attention to the
resources of the grand territory men,
toned in order to induce Its people to
build railroad thereto, and reap a
portion OF the benefits that now accrue
to Fort Worth through the Fort Worth
& Denver. or Northwest Texas the
Herald says:
But few people In this city realize
the extent and possibilities OF this
northwestern section of Texas. Go

Don't All Speak at Once.


The Day timidly ventures into the
newspaper discussion as to the status
of the leading dailies of Texas-which
is the state paper, as distinguished
from those that are more local In their
scope. There are five newspapers
that stand in the front. Alphabetical
ly arranged these are the Express,
GAZETTE, Herald, News and Post.
Any one OF the five is worthy TO occupy
the entire field, il t'other dear charm-
ers were away, Each fills its own terri
tory fully and completely. But gen.
eral recognition accorde the first place,
in circulation. prestige and compre'
hensive scope, to only one of these,
which IL may be invidious and Is GER
tainly useless to name. When the
country pArson SAID TO Sidney Smith
that Shakespeare was a great poet, u
he WAS only laughed at. Like the
newspaper question in Texas, j. was
self-evident proposition.

Advising the Land Board.

ADVISING the Land BOARD.
II the land board will sell seven Sec
tions of land in the grazing districts
to one person, the West will be settled
up with permanent livestock breed
ers, and every acre of school land not
sold will be rented at prices ranging
from the minimum figure to twenty
cents an acre. To rent the most in
ferior lands, of which there are mil
lions Of acres, the price fixed in the
law, four cents, should be retained as
the minimum Austin Statesman.
Encouraged by the temerlty Of the
State sman, and with trembling for
fear of what the Houston Post may
say, THE GAZETTE also ventures, in
behalf of the West and of those towns
vitality interested in the settlement
and development of the West, TO offer
"a few suggestions to the land board
Classify the lands. There are graz
ing districts and grazing Districts"
but there are no grazing districts in
! the West, in the sense that any large
area is unfit for aught but grazing
| there are hundreds of thousands OF
acres of land in "the West" as well
adapted to agricultural pursuits as any
in the state.
Sell from one to five (or from one to
seven sections, according to locality.
In such localities as, for instance,
Haskell or Wilbarger county, no more
than one section should be sold to any
one man. In those localities where
the surface is more broken, sell from
0ne to five (or from one to seven sec
tions as settlers may desire and &C
cording to the adaptability of the par
ticular sections desired. On "the
plains" and in localities east thereof
one section does not offer sufficient In
ducements but the privilege to buy
from one to seven, or from one to five
sections, will attract home-seekeri

to settle and develop such

A prominent figure has dropped out
from Northern financial circles by the
death of Commodore Garrison. He
WAS striking figure In Il coterie of re-
markable men. Tall and broad.shoul-
dered, with massive head and full
crop ofcurly white hair that may have
been wig, he bore his seventy-odd
years well, until partial paralysis
compelled him to depend upon two
strong body-servants for help in his
movements from place to place. he
had made millions but his last few
years on earth found him contending
vigorously, not to say greedily, for some
that had slipped through his fin
gers. He paid an immense
sum of money to compromise the Pc
ter Marie suit, which was involved in
the long.pending litigation over the
tile to the Missouri Pacific railroad
A considerable part Of this went t.
Roscoe Conkling, whose mastery
handling OF the suit compelled com
promise OF the entire series Of legal en-
tanglements, many of which wer'
purposely woven for other interests
but through all of which the grea
lawyers searching vision penetrated
Commodore Garrison, like the eide
Vanderbilt and Huntington, took unit
himself young wife to share his sep
tuagenarian affections.
