SEVERAL marrisgeable young men
OF Rochester, n, H., are In terrible
pickle They have heretofore given
ia reason Cor not marrying that they
could not afford the luxury. About
month ago several marriageable
young ladies put their heads together
and prepared document proving con-
oluslyely that families Of from two ia
six (they provide for tho future, YOU
see) can live well on 50 week. Having
disposed OF rents, fuel and provisions.
these artless girls turned their atten-
ton to clothing, and the do ument
aforesaid states that the woman who
cannot dress stylishly aud save money
on $50 year is not worth the marry.
ing Then these girls made copies OF
the original and sent one to each Of
the eligible young men.

THE GAZETTE, under tho nom dc
plume Of "Lihertas, THE GAZETTE
with great pleasure transfers TO its own

Fort Worth, In consequence Of events
unnecessary to recall, bears the repu.
tation Of law-defying city, 1t is un.
observable, ga all men who live here
know, but this is unavailing. An eff.
fort Is now being made by the county
attorney to enforce state law. That
attempt VIII succeed or fail as public
sentiment decides, for no law can bt
enforced in opposition to public sen.
timent. The interested oppo
nents of the laws enforce.
ment seek to arouse public sentiment
against the law by making it obnox.
ious; In this effort they are aided by
those who might, naturally be ex pected
to favor the enforcement OF law, but
who, for some reason best known tC
themselves, are bent on making the
law obnoxious.
The Issue ia In the hands of the peo
pie of Fort Worth. If they wan

day stoppt q, the law will be enforced
II public sentiment oppose

gregate capacity to decide,
The issue ia with the people Tn,
consequences OF their decision will res

Bowlin will make it impossible I,

not law-abiiing town. The peopl,
are competent to judge, rnd they mus
decide for themselves, whether they
favor or oppose the enforcement o
law.
