FORT WORTH.
What the State Papers Are Saying OF
the Place Where the Panther
Laid Down.
KIND words for the City of Pluck, Enter
prise ma Railroads, and for
Its Morning Paper.

falO ilntO news, Fort worth has |
again rendered herself famous as the lead
ing city Of the state for pluck energy |
and public spirit, by very promptly put
ting M $4,000 TO secure the Santa Fe |
road, running from north to south.
THE PEER or ANY.
Mineral Wells Herald Fort Worth /
stands to-day the peer Of any city in the |
world for pluck aud enterprise. II has
fully demonstrated what the people OF
town can do by liberal policy. One
would suppose by the way the cash rolled
| in whenever there is subscription
started for any enterprise beneficial TO
Fort Worth that citizens OF that city, not
satisfied with loosening their purse
strings, they Just knock the entire bottom
out of them. While the enterprising
citizens Of the Fort are deserving Of the
highest enconiums for their unprece-
dented liberality, THE GAZETTE should
not be forgotten, for it has been largely
through the ceaseless efforts Of that pa
per that the Fort is what II Is to-day.
However, while THE GAZETTE has built
up the leading city in the state, on the
the other hand, the city has built up the
leading newspaper In the state. Let the
people of Mineral Wells emulate the eX-
ample of Fort Worth and in five years
we, too, can have a city. With little
pluck and enterprise, with our natural
advantages, we will get there in great
shape. In the language Of the Fort, "On
to Millsap with the rairoadl"
ON TO FARMERsviLLE.
Farmersville Times Fort Worth is
jubilant over her success In obtaining the
main line of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe. Fort Worth is certainly live city,
and we predict that in the near future
Farmersyllle will have railroad connec-
ton with her. What does THE GAZETTE
think about it2
ON TO sPRINGTowN.
Springtown PILOT Fort Worth will
soon be the Chicago of the Southwest,
and THE GAzETTE is happy. Don't blame
the "old gal" bit. Wish she would di-
vide her happiness and build road out
this way to Springtown, Jacksboro and
the coal fields of Young county.
GOT THE RAILROAD RABIES.
Dallas Herald: II there ever was
iustihable time for Dallas and the rest of
the country to quarantine against Fort
Worth, now is the accepted time. The
whole place seems to be afflicted with the
rabies, and such frothing and bowling
one may see over at that deluded town
! lust now is hesrtrendlng to behold, 1t
appears to be its periodical epidemic In
d its most yiruent form, and should
a another railroad man speak to Fort
Worthite from the car window, the whole
b place viii have to be bundled OF 10 the
lunatic asylum. What verdant though
hysterical people they are, sure enough
y PLUCK WILL WIN.

well II she but takes pattern after forl
4 Worth. What that city has accomplished
= within the last six years in securing ran
roads, building up new enterprises ana oth
s erwise adding otis growth ana permaheh
:, prosperity is indeed wonderful Ana oul
city is much more iavorably located thar
the Fort was. Pluck, energy and enter
prise will accomplish almost anything
CITY OF PERFORMANCES.
Austin CALI Fort Worth is actively en-
gagged In work on three different and al
O vergent lines of railway Dallas II

many more. That is the difference be
IA tween the two cities. One performs, I'M
other promises.
