county is daily receiving accessions to its
population both from Eastern Texas and
the North. These people are mostly
farmers attracted by the fine lands still
to be had direct from the state, and there
is no doubt that the county will settle up
very rapidly.
Captain King of Fort Worth has just
completed the survey of the town plat of
Salisbury and has won the admiration of
all by the skillful manner in which he has
done the work. As an engineer, Captain
King cannot be eXcelied.
Colonel R. E. Montgomery of Denver
and Major c. G.. Allen of Fort Worth
spent Friday last in Salisbury superin-
tending the plating of the town. They
have made arrangements TO place lots on
the market Mt once and those who wish
to locate here can now secure desirable
building sites.
The Denver, Texas and Fort Worth
Railway, always alive to the best inter
ests of the towns along its line, has a
force of men here engaged in moving
their side track from its former location
TO point opposite the business portion of
town. This is ar improvement much
heeded and highly appreciated by all our
Citizens.

wood, London, is a very strong advocate
of the trade being opened out, as he has
ample means of knowing the prospect as
regards the demand and prices realized
here, and the excellent prospects which
would be in store for Fort Worth when
once the trade is started, as that would
soon become the center of the cattle
trade, and very busy place through it.
If few of your wealthy citizens would
form syndicate and start the thing, we
feel quite sure that you could easily beat
the Northern men out. Your advantages
being so great over them, and your
expenses being so much smaller thaH
theirs on the cattle, you cpSld
deliver the stuff in England, in fact
first handed, and sell at a price Chat
would ruin them, and you wouldAtill
make a profit, whereby Fort W0rFf
would divert the cattle trade to that
quarter, and in the natural course o.
events make itself in short space SE
time the center of the cattle trade. ~
We trust that all who are interested in
the welfare and trade of Texas will assist
in bringing this to actual business, and
cooperate to the fullest extent in
their power with Mr.. w. F. Somer-
vile, and endeayor with that
gentlemen to make it reality, as it will
then succeed and the people will have
cause to feel pleased with the result of
their enterprise.
Nothing shall be left undone here, and
we shall be glad to give any further in
formation and replies to any question
any interested person may feel disposed
to write for regarding this most import
ant industry. Faithfully yours,

ANOTHER CHICAGO EXPLOSION
Four Men Killed-The Loss 100000.
Mill Dust the Cause.

CHICAGO, ILL. Dec. 11.-Shortly be-
fore ? o. CLOCK this morning an explosion
took place in divers oat mills on Hal
sted street, near Fulton. The mill was
surrounded by number of frame build
ings, and the roof of the mill was raised
in the air and fell on several, crushing
them. No lives are known to have been
lost, however, outside of the night force
employed in the mill. OF these Charles
Miller, engineer, John Smith and Ernest
Casper, millers, are known to be in
the ruins. John Holmes, another
miller, was blown out a second
story window into the street and was
picked up fatally injured. The fire
which ensued lasted an hour. The en-
tire fronts of the buildings for block on
either side of the mill were cracked and
the windows broken. A rough esti-
mate places the loss at S100 900.
Persons who were asleep i'll a build
ing adjacent to the wrecked mill
were thrown out of their beds
by the force of the explosion,
and most of them were more or less
injured. During the terrific lombard
ment of bricks and other debris several
of them barely escaped with their lives.
About 1890 this morning the eXcava-
ting party discovered the body of a man
supposed to be Engineer Miller, but the
face was mutIlated so it could not be
recognized. The boilers have been I'M
covered and are intact, which dispOSes
of the theory that they had exploded.
The police say there is no evidence of dy-
Mantle. 1t is SNOW considered certain
that mill dust was the material that ex-

There is no doubt now in the minds of
cattlemen in all parts of the state that
the present will be a very easy winter on
range stock. The dangerous part of the
season has about passed. The weather
that ultimately proves disastrous to
stocks is those early fall rains and north
ers that usually occur at the time when
the old crop of grass is very light and
when the cattle are entering upon long
period of short pasturage. The cattle
become enfeebled, lank, hungry and
void of energy, so that when in the
spring the cold storms come on they are
unable to stand the pressure, and one by
one succumb. This season, however,
the grass has held out unusually well,
the rains have not been too heavy nor of
the kind to destroy grass or take the flesh
off cattle, so that there is good reason to
hope the spring crop will find an active
lot of stock on Texas ranges, ready and
anxious to be fattened for the market.

The last Logan Freeman follows
the example of the Kirwin IIldeDea-
dent and hashes up and garbIes our
articles on the matter OF the deposit
ing OF the county funds in the banks.
so that with a twist here. a misquota-
ton there, and the copying OF a part
OF a paragraph in another place. with
a liberal amount of misrepresenta-
ton thrown in, that paper makes it
appear to the careless reader that
the Herald is in favor Of the banks
paying but one per cent. interest on
county funds deposited. Every read
er of this paper knows that the HER
AID has never taken that position.
We have in discussing this subject
repeatedly stated that the bankers
said ''they could not afford to pay
over one per cent. for money left sub
ject to check at any time" We al
ways followed up that quotation by
the statement that we had no means
of knowing the recourses of the banks,
and whether they could or could not
afford to pay more except their own
statement IN the matter. Why then
does the Logan Freeman continue to
misrepresent US and claim that the
quotation of what the bankers say is
our language. Why cannot Candi-
date Boyd be fair and tell the truth
as to our position. He is a candidate,
it is true, but that is no valid excuse
for him to continue to misrepresent
us, even if such misrepresentation
does make him votes. In the long
run it is better to be honest and fair
even in politics.

WANTED, by the Republican state committee
Two able-bOdied adept liars in each township in
the state, to blacken the reputation of opposing
candidates. It's our only show 10 win. Phillips
county liars will please report at the Herald Office
Phillipsburg, for Instructions.
BY ORDER OF COMMITTEE.
The above appeared in the Kirwin
Independent last week. It does not
display any ability nor is it witty. It
is intended as a slur on the HERALD.
We ask what ground has the Tllde-
pendent for insinuating that this pa
per is guilty Of backing the reputa-
ton of anybody and that it wants the
assistance Of liars to carry on the
work? So far this campaign we have
studiOusly avoided attacking the per
sOnal character of any opposing can
didate. On the other hand we have
generally spoken well Of them as men
and citizens. We have criticized the
scheming and fusing methods Of GER
tain candidates, and exposed some
political maneuvers but we went no
farther. Then why does the indie
pendent print the above and mani
fest so much venom? It must be be-
cause the HERALD's shot at the actions
Of its political Captains have hit the
mark aimed at. We have a right to
discuss candidates and their acts
which effect the public, and the rag
ing and crashing Of teeth Of the par
ty bosses, shall not deter US from
writing our honest views about politi-
cal affairs The writer will knowing
" make no statement about friend or
foe that is not true; neither viii we
assail with venom any one, nor de
scend to bandying epithets with our
Kirwin contemporary, but we viii, to
the best Of our ability, show up the
inconsistencies Of protested political
leaders who preach one thing and
practice another.

Mr.. Boyd a Good Soldier, But a
Slick Politician,

MI. BOyd a GOOD Soldier, But a
Slick Politician.
Two weeks ago we stated that we
had heard that Mr. Boyd had so al
luded to Major Wilson as to offend
some Of the old soldiers OF Logan.
Then in kindly spirit we used this
language:
The editor of the freeman we be
heve was a soldier himself and is a
member of the @. A. r. as is also the
writer and we believe Major Wilson
also. Old union soldiers should ney-
er allow their partisan feelings to so
warp them as to speak insultingly of
a cOmrade.
Mr.. Boyd gets quite indignant at
the HERALD over what any one might
have seen was but the expression of a
friendly sentiment. In his reply oc-
ours this language:
Old soldiers are roaming over the county, doing
all IN their power TO Willy and njure the Freeman
editor but that is all right because the editor is
U. L. man, but put an interrogation point after
the name of Republican soldier is a crime.
Are you not getting a little excited
Brother Boyd? We know of no old
soldier who is vilIifying you. So far
as the HERALD is concerned it has not
printed a line editOrially that reflect
ed on your personal integrity, nor ut
tered one word against your soldier
record. We understand you was a
good soldier. What we have said is
about, not you, but your under-hand-
ed political methods. You denounce
democrats, and then for votes fatter
them; to strengthen your own candi-
dacy, you manipulate the political
wires so as to pull off the U. L. ticket
your own political associates and put
democrats in their stead, who dispise
your party and your party's princi-
pies. The HERALD has not even de
MED the correctness of the great ma
jority of the doctrines enunciated by
the Union Labor party, and the writ
er has personally boldly declared a
belief in the correctness of those prin-
ciples in the main. Our criticism has
been, and is, that you are incOnsist-
ent in fusing with a party that you at
heart despise-a party that you Sc
verely denounce when no democrats
are about, but a party you sell out to
for votes. That is tolerably plain
talk Mr.. Boyd, but we state the truth
don't we?
