Pluck and Progress.
FORT woRTH's ENERRY.
Hamilton Herald: Fort Worth has
raised the ST., 900 demanded as a subsi.
dy for the location of extensive cotton
mills there, and they are q fixed fact.
Inc full dynamic power of Fort
yet.
GIVE DALLAS A cHANCE
Weatherford Sun: Now that Fort
Worth has secured, beyond all doubt,
the cotton factory and the extension
OF the Waxahachie Tap, the Fort
should no longer begrudge Dallas the
wandering branch Of the Dallas News.
Ambition and enterprise are com.
mendable only so long as they do not
degenerate into downright hoggish-
ness. Give Dallas chance.
WORKS FOR WHAT III GETS.
Alvarado Bulletin: Fort Worth has
a working hand and busy brain.
When she sees anything she needs or
wants che goes to work and--gets IL.
Among the many things she has done

the Central at Waxshachie, whereat

land over the prospects OF new rail-
roads, and II pluck, with any amount
of other essentials, can secure these
desirable connections, that great city

GROWS DESPITE OPPOSITION.
Alvarado Bulletins Fort Worth is
full OF pluck and enterprise. Scarcely
had the amount necessary to secure
railway connection with Waxahachie
been subscribed before we are told the
Fort Worth & Rio Grande Is an assured
fact and bound 10 materialize. The pan
ther perhaps did lie down at the Fort
but he left no lazy hairs there and the
city prospera and grows great in spite
Of all opposition. Long may she grow
and prosper.
THE FORTS FAITH.
Graham Leader: Almost every
evening the citizens OF Fort Worth
hold meetings for the purpose of ex-
hibiting their faith in railroads and
factories. Peter Smith and b. b. Pad
dock attend all the meetings and have
convinced the people that faith with
out works Is dead" and now every one
in and around the Fort are working
like Italian bees In field OF clover
The Forts faith in railroads and fac.
tories as means of supremacy over all
her rivals is fully as large as grain OF
| mustard seed. IL Peter Smith and 3
B. Paddock don't weary in well-doipg
the Galveston News may be sorry that
| it preferred Dallas to the Fort.

Houston Herald: Fort Worth has
the bulge on Dallas, and is growing &C
cordingly.
BOUND TO WIN.
Hamilton Times: Fort Worth IL
sure to nave the railroad TO Waxa'

and pluck in that city.
EXACT SIZE or THE DIFFERENCE.
Houston Post: Where there's 9
will there's a way" says the proverb
| Fort Worth has the VIII anO DAiihs
hae not. That Is about the size OF IL
ALL TExAs ADAIREs THE FORT.
Cleburne Chronicle Since the pro
posed Dallas d Northwestern railroad
has resulted in failure, the Herald
wants Dallas TO build narrow-gaugt
road TO Wsxshachie, The GAZETTE
appears TO think q scheme is on foot In
| nallaa IN divert the rpnant RuDRcriD
ton made in Waxahachie for the road
TO Fort Worth to q narrow-gauge tC
Dallas. The Herald lie doubtless
wasting it's sweetness In lending its in
fiuence TO such scheme. The people
of Waxahachie can hardly be induced
to swap their chances with a live, pro
gressive city for one that seems to bs
mapping and waiting for something e
turn up. All Texas admlres the pluch
and enterprise OF Fort Worth.
