TIE LEADING NEWSPAPER

Carrizo Springs Javelin: We confess
that we hardly know how to say enough
in praise of that excellent paper, the
Fort Worth GAZETTE. 1t has donned a
span new petticoat in the shape of new
type, and is a marvel of typographical
beauty and joy to the eye of practical
printer. Its editorials are marked by in
tellect, by pith, by humOr and solid COM
mon sense. Its "Rounds-Ups'' column
is full of matter in each issue not only of
interest but of practical value to every
progressive stockman and wool grower in
Texas, and it should be in the houses of
them all. Its news columns are replete
with matter gathered from the four cor
ners of the earth, and redundant with
matters connected with our state news.
He who does not subscribe for THE GA
ZETTE is the loser, for it stands to-day
pre-eminently the leading newspaper of
Texas. May it ever prosper.
