FORT WORTH, TEX, June 10, 1883
While turning the Refrigerator scheme"
over in my mind to-day the thought
occurred to me that if the people OF Fort
Worth who are subscribing their money
to start this great work (Which seems to
be the quickest If not the only salvation
to the cowmen of the SOUTH fear that
there will be collapse after 1t is started
sgsin, the cattlemen should come to the
front and say, ave are Interested in this
thing more than any one else; and il the
business must be run at e loss for while
in order TO make it G success IN future,
we will stand to you, shoulder to shout
der, and subscribe cattle to make up this
loss" For instance, take 100 Of the cat
tle-growing counties and let each county
subscribe 100 cattle. We have 10000
cattle, valued st Sl5 per head, making a
donation of $4,000, which would be
only small amount for each county to
give. The benefit derived from the enter
prise would soon pay each county back
with interest on the donation, and $780,
GOO sdded to the stock of any enterprise
will bridge ov3r d difficulties that sometimes
occur and cause collapse, when, If the
people that are directly interested in
these certain enterprises would come to
the rescue, it could be carried on and
eventually become q grand success.
When we look around us and see how The
cities have grown and prospered that
have built and fostered such enterprises
as this, how can We stand back? Vow
my suggestion is this: Every cattleman
VINO feels that she will be benefited by
this refrigerator being established at Fort
Worth and we certsinly al feel that way
90 to work in his own county and see
how many cattle he can get donated TO
them. 1 will say for myself that, al
though my means are limited, will guar
antee one carload and believe l
would be safe in saying my county

not only to its owners. but to the people
st large. There is only one way to drive

is to mass our forces, and march right

weapons, so to speak, "csplsal,"
This is one enterprise Fort Worth will
aIways fell proud Of II secured, and will
always feel like-Well wish we had 1t, If

K GOOD TARIFF TALK.
A Good Speech by H. H. Price
Candidate Tor State Senator.

Mr. Chairman, Ladies and GEN
AemeN [ am in the present
situation owing to little misap-
prehension, however l trust that
am well enough known to most of
you, that you will not expect any
speech from this quarter. Hand
ling sawlogs or trying to make
farming pay has not done much
towards building up any oratorical
ability.
But the present political cam
paing is SO clearly one that the
farmers, loggers, laborer and
merchant should take an active
part in, that, being of their class,
I can give 4 few of the reasons
causing me to take the political
position [ do. Just before l
became old enough to vote, it
seemed to me that I wanted to do
just exactly opposite to that
which most boys do with their
first vote, that is I did not want to
vote as my father did. Simply
wished to exhibit an independent
spirit and vote a free opinion. In
fact this desire and feeling has
caused me considerable trouble
always and did so in this case,
for the first obstacle that appeared
IN my way, was the fact that in
order to pull with any other party
than the Republicans it would be
necessary for me to join hands
with the worst elements in our
village, elements that did nothing
