WHY NOT AE1XCURSIONs

| PdE GAzxTTK desires to repsxt and
emphasiz. the suggestion TO the ner-
thsnt and people generally OF Fort
Worth. as made in this paper yesterday,
for an excursion Of tie business men Of
the toHnssand cites of the ParallelogIam
TO For. Wo tn nexs month The people
! Of the country t3aversed by he S., Louis,
Arkansas and Texas Railway from Fort
Worth TO Texsr ana, and especially ihe
merchants and BUSINESS men OF thst terri
tory, are very friendly to this city. The
Go ton Belt has brought them in direct
connection with Fort Wort,, and
the opportunity is most favorsble to
an expression Of the desire Of
Fort Worth for close business relations
with one of the mostpopulous,p progressive
snd fertile sections Of the state, Fort
Worth hiss everything to gain and nothing
to lose by cultivating the friendly dispo-
sition Of the famous Parallelogram to-
ward this city. Fort Worth is not indiffer-
ens to the value Of this rich connection and
OF TIE kindly feeling for itself entertained
by its new neighbors, but public ex-
preston of Fors Worth's interest and
appreciation would not only be grateful
TO the friends of the city in the Parallelo-
gram but advertise far and wide
the close relations of this rich northeast
ern feld with this city. In the Language
of TIE GAEsrTs's suggestion yesterday,
the merchants OF Mount Pleasant, Sui
phur Springs, Wylie, Greenville, Com.
me7ce, Plano, Pittsburg, Mt. Vernon,
Belder, Morris, Csrrollton, Renner,
Josephine, Nevada and other towns ex-
press desire to know Our merchants
snd our people and the business mea OF
Fort Worth should arrange with the
ofacials of the Cotton Belt an excursion.
The month of Msy is the time.
In this movement for an excursion to
Fort Worth in May from the Parallelogram
our wholesale merchants should take the
initiative and all the people Of the city
should lend willing aid. There are mer-
chants and bankers and real estate owners
AID lawyers and others in Fort Worth
who formerly lived In the Parallelogrtm
or did business with lis people. These
men should be active in such movement,
for they know the value Of tho new con-
nection. An excursion of these people
to Fort Worth, where they would be re-
ceiyed and entertained By Fort
Wortl's prominent business men, would
be timely expression OF this city's
appreciation Of the feeling entertained for
it by those who have been made near
neighbors and friends through the compile
ton of the Cotton Belt.
