Citizens Of Dallas Urged to Do Their
Duty by the Flir-COurt Notes.
Fort WORTHLESS Consider the ACCESSIBILITY of

THE DALLAS FAIR.

TIE DALLAS FAIR.
Special to the Gazette.
DALLAS, TEX. Feb 9.-The manage
ment of the fair is waiting patiently for
the citizens to invest in the $50 900 sec
ond mortgage bonds. 1t is necessary to
secure this amount before work on the
fair of 1889 can proceed Thirty thou
sand dollars worth of the bonds have
been disposed Of, leaving $40, 600 worth
yet on hand Several committees have
been at work for several weeks trying to
complete the amount, but they receive
poor encouragement. The people seem
TO think that the amount will be ar
ranged for somehow or other, and that 1t
is unnecessary for them to invest. On
the other hand, the management is
bound hand and foot until the money. is
at their disposal, and no active prepara-
tionS for the fair will be commenced until
the amount IS secured.
LOOKING At THE COTTON MILL.
Hons Hyde Jennings anu \ NJ. Car
ter yesterday visited the cotton mill to
inspect the machinery and to examine
mto.it as an investment These gentle
men, it is understood in Dallas, are at
the head Of the proposed cotton mil in
Fort Worth, and they looked over the
ground carefully and were satisfied that
such an industry was desirable in Fort
Worth, not only because it would pay
handsome dividend on invested capital,
but because it would give employment to
several hundred operators thus largely
increasing the city 5 retail trade, besides
keeping at home large sum of money
which IS annually sent to the North.
THE DEMOCRATIC CLUB.
The announcement that officers would
be elected brought out seven to the meet
ing of the Democratic club last night,
but as the number present was not large
enough to supply the official roster, the
election was postponed a week Under
the head Of officers reports the treas
urer reported 81 No in the treasury ana
$40 outstanding claims and accounts
Under the head of good of the ORDER
= proposition was made to disband the
club, as judging from the interest mani
tested, it had outlived its usefulness
The only obstacle III the way of disband-
ing was the debt of the club, and on that
account dissolution was, voted down.

The Tariff Bill.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The Demo-
cratic members of the committee ON ways
and means have been earnestly consult
ing and working upon the tariff bill, and
the present expectation is that they will
be able to report to the house upon the
senate amendments next Tuesday. The
indications are the report will be confined
to recommendation that the senate
amendments be rejected for reasons
stated. 1t win argue upon basis of
treasury figuring, that when account is
taken of the operation Of the package
clause and other administrative features
of the bill as wei as of the amendments
whose effect cannot be stated in advance,
but which must result in increased reve-
nue., the total gross reduction made by
the bill as it came from the senate, ex-
elusive of the internal revenue section,
will not exceed S., 900, 600 Without TAX

VIGOROUSLY INExACT.
Such Has Been Proved TO be the Evidence of
Leearon Before the ParnelI Commission.

AUGUSTA, GA, Feb g. II John F.
Armstrong has just returned from
meeting of the executive council of the
Irish national league of America at Gin
cinnati. Beach Cor Becaronl testified in
the Parnell investigation that ne (Arm-
strong) had gone TO Ireland in June,
1885. Armstrong says he went oyer
in January, 1886, as the duly authorized
agent of the Irish National League of
America, and that he went openly to
confer with Mr. Parnell to secure a better
understanding between the branches of
the league in Ireland and America His
going was published fully in the news
papers at the time, and there was
no effort at secrecy about
his trip He met Mr.. Parnen
and dispatched his business. Mr.. Arm
strong says when it is shown that Beach
is thus notoriously inexaet in public
matter of this kind an idea can be had of
the accuracy and reliability of his general
testimony.

Abdallah, the Sheek of the
Persians, who was noted for his
wisdom in many things, once
gave some advice to his court
iers about choosing wife. "Let
her be a woman whose eyes turn
not away when ycu speak to her
and whose nose hath no tenden-
cy upward, for the first is owner
of deceit, the second of bad tenn
per; but above all, look you to
her lips. Choose no woman
whose lips drop at the corners.
for your life will be a perpetual
mourning time, nor yet should
they curve too much upward,
for that denotes frivolitx. Be-
ware Of the under lip that roll
eth outward. for that woman
hath more desire than con-
science. Select for a wife one
whose lips are straight-not
thin, for she is a shrew, but
with just the fullness necessary
to perfect symmetry"

GLADSTONES OPINION.

No man of sense and candor
will dispute Mr.. Gladstone's
great abilities and accomplish
ments. He is indeed q very
marvellous man. He is the
greatest financial Chancellor
that England has had since Will
liam Pitt. Some time ago a we'll
known Chicago lawyer, Col. Jno.
Atkinson, who is tainted with
the Protection virus, was in Eng
land and had an interview with
Mr.. Gladstone. Upon his return
to his own country Mr.. Atkinson
gave an account Of what occur
red. He says the great states
man expressed surprise at the
hold Protection seemed to have
in this country. He asked why
was this? Mr.. Atkinson repli-
ed:
"The main argument was shat
free trade would cripple our in
dustries, deprive us of our home
market, and compel us in COM
peting with Europe to reduce
wages to the star dard of Eu-
rope" "Do you know" said he,
"that by and through free trade
wages have advanced in Eng
land"
He asked if Mr.. Gladstone
thought that Free Trade would
increase wages in the United
States? The reply was:
"I think SO. AS long as Amer
lea maintains protection Eng
land will be the foremost of
commercial nations, but when
America adopts free trade We
must take a second place. You
may say this is arguing against
England's interest. Not so.
England would gain immensely
by free trade in America, but
America would gain still more,
You must promise me-" he said,
"to get rid of your protective
notions."-Wil. Star.
