The Work WIN Commence as Soon as Fort
Worth Does It's Duty TO Itself
and the Road.

Learning that Mr. w. b. Parsons, Jr.,
the representative Of the financial syndl-
cate which proposes 10 furnish the "sin-
ews OF war" for the Brentwood road
was in the city, a representative OF this
paper was dispatched to interview him In
regard TO the enterprise. Mr.. Parsons
very readily yielded to the reportoriel in.
QUESTION with the following result:
"Haye you come to build the Brown
wood road?n asked the reporter.
"Not necessarily" replied Mr.. Par.
sons. 81 have been commissioned
Dy the syndicate who have taken
the securities Of the company to
investigate the situation, and II
all the conditions Of the contract made
with Mr.. Paddock are complied with, the
road will undoubtedly be constructed"
"Is IL absolutely essential that the full
sum OF $4,000 shall be raised before the
work OF construction commences2"
"Most assuredly II is. When / was
here in July last, questioned your peo-
pie particularly upon this subject, and
the opinion was almost unanimous that
the sum Of $40, 900 could, and would, be
readily raised by this city. You must
understand that the gentlemen who take
these securities assume all the expense
OF constructing the road, and all the risk
OF the investment. They will have
to operate and maintain the
road until the bonds are mar
keted, and this may be un indefinite time,
and II may be years before they realize
anything on the investment, 1t is but
Just and equitable that your citizens, who
will receive direct and immediate bene-
1T, should aid In The enterprise"
OWN other towns along the line be
asked to contributor"
Certainly, all will be treated alike,
and none will be asked TO contribute be-
yond their ability to pay, and whatever
asked we expect to receive"
Chow soon will the work commence?'
"That depends entirely upon your
people. Mr.. Paddock has made all
his arrangements for the money
and am authorized to put the ball in
motion as soon as this question is settled.
The work will commence as soon there
after as an engineering corps can be or
ganized, line located and the contract
let. can assure you no time will be lost
and no delay permitted, except what il
caused by your own people In reising the

About month ago we stated In the pa
per that we had purchased the BANK
RUPT STOCK OF Dry Goods and Dress
Goods OF II. T. Cooper, Chicago, valued
at $4,000, for $500. We stated we
would offer them for sale In a few days;
but they never came. After writing
number of letters, and sending many dis
patches, we at length learned that
the car upon which the goods had been
shipped was in wreck, and they did not
know what the condition of the goods
was. To our surprise two of Binyon's
wagons drove up to our store door upon
yesterday and dropped the goods upon
our pavement. 1t is all right now; we
shall offer these goods for sale upon
MONDAY, NOVEMBER lST.
A great many ine dry goods apd dress
goods will be sold by us for less than
what they cost other merchants. Ladies,
pay no attention to what the dry goods
merchants in town, and their clerks, may
say about these goods being out of style,
etc. Come and see the goods for your
self. There is another little matter
WE WANT TO MENTION.
More than month ago we bought OF
Charles P. Kellogg & Co., clothing manu-.
tacturers Of Chicago, the stock OF Cloth
Ing, Gents Furnishing Goods and Hats
recently owned by &. W. Belts, Esq, Of
800 Houston street. These goods We
stated that we would offer for sale upor
the opening of fall trade, and are now fol
sale at good deal less than other mer
chants pay for the same goods.
In addition to all of the above We
have in our store an immense stock o
Mems Suits, Pants and overcoats, of tn,
best makers in the United States.

zETTE asks this consideration for the
good name OF city and county, Of Demo
Gratis no less than Of those who oppose
the Democracy. THE GAZETTE would
counsel all TO patience and regard for
decency in discussion. There are coca
sions when It requires as much courage
to restrain ones indignation and resent
ment as TO express them. The occasion
is at hand when every man who calls him
self a citizen Of Tarrant county should
feel that its good name rests in part upon
himself, and II there be those who care
less for the good name OF the community

is all the more need for seIf-conirol on
the part OF those who do feel the respon-
sibillty resting on them as citizens Of the

GONE TO THE JURY.
The Wallace Merchant Murder Case Con.
oludod.

,cluded.
Correspondence Of the Gazette
MONTAGUE, TEX, oct. 22.-The dis
trict court Of this county has been en-
gagged since Tuesday in the trial Of the
Wallace Merchant case for the murder Of
one Dave Kyle, in Clay county in Octo-
Der, 1885. The case was transferred to
this county on change of venue. This
case has excited considerable interest
here owing to the report that had pro-
ceeded 1t to the effect that the killing Of
Kyle byldefendent and his brother, House,
was most foul and dastardly murder
The witnesses upon the stand, however,
put an entirely different phase upon it. It
is the general expression OF the large
audience who have been In attendance
throughout the trial that the case has
been conducted with more ability, es-
peclally the defense, than any case tried
here In long time. The prosecution
completely broke down upon the testi-
mony OF Mry. Kyle, widow of deceased,
who, upon cross-examination by defend
ants counsel, admitted that Mr.. Barrett,
counsel for the state, told her at Henri
eta what to swear, and that II she did
not swear 1t that the defendants would
come clear on the testimony Of Mrs.
Wallace Merchant, who testified as to the
insults offered her by the deceased on the
day OF the killing, Mrs. Kyle was intro.
duced for the purpose Of contradicting
Mrs. Merchant. Mrs. Kyle Is apparently
very ignorant woman, and, in the eyes
OF all who heard the testimony, is more
/ TO be pitied than blamed. II was also
shown by witnesses for the defense that
the lives Of some OF the witnesses for the
defendant had been threatened by parties
interested In the prosecution II they testi.
fed In the case. The case was given tc
the jury at late hour last night. Up tc
this writing they have not returned Q
, verdict.
The case against House Merchant wa
continued by the state.

THERE is good deal said in Republl-
can papers about "sectional preiudices,"
and 1t is being constantly urged upon the
South that she bury the Ratchet, that the
war is over, that traternal relations be
established, etc. All this Is very well.
Yes, they are willing the South should
think as she pleases, so she pleases to
think with them. Senator Miller, in his
address to Brooklyn Republicans urged
them to refuse to elect Democrats to
congress, because Southern men rule the
Democracy. That battle-cry ante dates
the war, and is so Anticipated that the
senator will have hard work TO conyinc'
his admirers Of It's originality, and he
perhaps, may learn the lesson effectuall,
that the people are tired OF such sense
less appeals, and the clans no longer rail-.
20 the old slogan.

THE DALLAS FAIR,

The Dallas State Fair and Exposition
opens next Tuesday, the 26th inst and
the promise is for the Inauguration Of an
exhibition that will yield good fruit TO
all North Texas. The managers OF the
Dallas State fair have expended large
sums OF money and displayed great &C
tivity and energy, and the opening Of the
fair is intended TO mark an era In the
progress of North Texas and of the entire
state. The people OF this section
should respond to the liberallty
and enterprise Of the gentlemen
who have put this fair in operation. It's
results will be far wider than city or
county lines, and its success should be
guaranteed by the people for whose adj
vancement II was Instituted. THE GA
zErTE trusts and expects to see proper
appreciation Of the efforts OF the Dallas
fair managers, and an attendance aud in
terest in the exposition that will be en-
oouragement for greater efforts in the
future. GAZETTE representative has
