Fort Worth realizes that the influence
Of railroads In building up cities tran
scends all others. This town now has
railroad outlets In eight directions
through the Missouri Pacific, the Texas &
Pacific, the Fort Worth Denver, the
Gulf, Colorado Santa Fe, the Fort
Worth & New Orleans, and the Trauscon-
tinental. In thirty days another outlet,
via the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, will
be added, TO Red river, and the tenth out
let will be supplied In the Fort Worth s
Rio Grande. None but those who Will
not see can be blind to the effect Of such
railroad facilities. Fort Worth is the
destined railroad center and greatest city
Cf Texas. II the possession Of (practi-
cally) ten railroads do not sufllce to make
city, nothing will.

Indorsed a. an Evangell.t

WACO, TEX, Oct. IS, 1886.
To the Editor OF the Gazette
MIR EDITOR: AS the pastor of the
Cumberland Presbyterian church here, |
wish TO say few words Of Mr.. Tyler,
who is now conducting meeting in my
church, He has very recently left Gaines
Vile, and In the series of meetings here
now enters upon his work as an
evangelist. As your paper has very
large circulation, permit me to
give him very hearty indorse-
ment through it's columns to the
people OF the state. He has very i'm.
pressive personal appearance, speaks
fluently, and thinks as rapidly as he
speaks, presenting Bible truth in very
attractive way. He has ability enough
OF his own not to be follower OF any
body in mis- method Of preaching and con-
dneting meetings, aud relying upon Gods
word for success, he has all the elements
Of successful evangelist. 1t will be
safe to say that no one has made more
favorable impression upon all classes of
people In Waco than Mr.. Tyler. He
preached to thousand people in the
opera house here last Sunday night, and
after listening to his bold and
fearless discussion Of the prevailing
vices TO men only, almost
the entire audience, most OF whom were
wicked men, arose and pledged that they
would lead y better life. Judging from
the many expressions made the next day
To the writer, this sermon made most
wonderful impression upon all classes OF
people. The meetings are still continued
With increasing interest. Not only my
church, but other churches, feel that Mr..
Tyler's work here has been great bless
November /, and, | understand that he IS
to hold meeting in your city, / sin
cerely hope he may receive as cordial well
come everywhere as he has in this city

for the present, he need not assume there
is nothing l,fi for him in the future. He
cannot go 70 California or any other state
aud become congressman without wait
Ind several years, and perhaps not then.
As lawyer be can make as much money
In Texas as anywhere else. THE Ga.
zETTE must regard the rumor of his in
tended migration as a canard. Texas
would get along without him, 20 be sure,
for there is not a man in this big state Of
able men whose death or departure would
be an lrreparable loss to the state. But
THR GAZETTE esteems Mr.. Wellborn, and
the people esteem him, even II they
didn't return him TO congress this time,
and II is TO be hoped he is going TO stay
right here, where he found the oppor-
tunity to win the prestige he has made,
and where he can certainly look TO the
future with full as much confidence as he
could anywhere else.
