Wichita Herald: The enterprising citi.
zens Of Fort Worth hsve called conyen'
ton to meet in that City on the 10Th OF
July, for the purpose Of taking action in
the matter Of deep water. AS the people
OF Colorado are, next 10 Texas, interested
In this important matter more than any
one else, so invitation will be cent them
to hsvs delee ates present and cooperate
with tee people Texas in obtaining this
much desired and necessary result. The
plan Of action will probsbly be to tx
upon some point OF the Texas coast
where the best hsrbor can be had, sld
then to call upon the Senators snd Rep
resentstives OF both states in Congress to
lay the matter properly before that body
and ask for an appropriation sufficient TO
make d good harbor possible. Consider
ing the glorious harvest Of the present
season and ths area Of prosperity tina: is
already daWni1g, there never was e more
oppOrtune time for such concentrated &C
ton IS is comprehended In this call, sRd
Fort Worth is to be greatly commended
l., r the enterprise sac has shown in tsk-
ing the initiative step and issuing It
Certain citizens OF Dallas, animated by
spirit OF petty jealousy, or else from s
way of doing business ths1 shows them
to be much ike a cows tail, got up 8
counter movement after the Fort Worth
csll hsd been issued, By suggesting that
convention be held in Denver, but tlss
movement is meeting with but slight ga
coqragement even from the Colorad6 pc :
pers. The RJCky Mountain News says in
so many words thst Fort Worth is the
place for the convention to be held
and the Denver Republican merely init
mates that Denver is cool plsce in July
and that the city will be glad to enter
tain the convention II it is decised to
hold 1t there. 1t suggests, however,
that 1t should not be held il Denver IN
less Fort Worth will relinquish her claim.
This, Fort Worth will not do, and hence
II may be said that virtually both Texas
q id Colorado are In favor of the "Con-
yention Center" IS the place of
meeting and the convention will with out
doubt be held there. In the FIST place
Texas is more directly interested IN daep
water than any one elae srd it is right
that she should be the prime mover in the
matter OF securing 1t. In the second
place Fort Worth was the f st 10 bring
the matter directly before the people and
her priority in the matter entities her to
the convention. Lastly Fort Worth is
the best place for the convention.
san Antonio Ex press: So far as ex-
preston CT sentiment has been made
delegates to the deep water
are anxious to meet the
Denver people-in Fort Worth. They
sre not at all anxious to meet Fort
Worth people in Denver.
Houston Post: The Post is unsole to
understand why some people are opposing
the hol, ing Of deep water convention at
Fort Worth. What are they afraid OF
