The Minneapolis Exposition this year
will contain 4 greater number of at
tractive EXHIBITS than ever. AT 4 re-
cent meeting of prominent Minneapolis
manufacturers, it was decided to put
in very elaborate displays, and in order
10 add interest to them. it was decided
that they should be movable in char
acter. Manufactures from abroad are
showing much interest this year owing
10 the recent admission TO the sister
hood of states OF North and South Da-
kota, Montana and Washington, and
rs a result are bringing forward their
finest goods for exhibition at Mimi
eapolis. Prominent among these are
Messrs. Powers u Weightman, of Phil
adelphia. tho largest manufacturers OF
chemicals in the world, who viii place
on exhibition their mammoth display
they had at London, Paris and other
old world exposition centres A num-
Der of other equally prominent in the
manufacturing world will be repre-
sented, 50 that undoubtedly in point OF
general interest the Exposition of 1889,
viii be the best yet held.
A new SCENE to defraud the conliding
farmer mas recently been put in prac-
tice in Iowa II was recently worked
on Lyon county farmer and is des-
eribed as follows: An agent called on a
farmer 70 sell him apple trees. lie did
not ask any pay for them, but simply
asked the farmer to plant them on
shares The agent Of the company
furnished the trees. the farmer planted
them. and the company got half the
fruit for twelve years from the time OF
planting The farmer bound himself to
keep the trees pruned, etc; also, if he
old his farm any time before the
twelve years expired. he must pay fol
the trees at the rate Of 81 80 each. For
this lie gave n bond of agreement as
security TO the agent for $500 and this
bond was registered againt the land
without the farmers knowledge. In
The course Of three months, another
gentleman came along looking for a
farm. He called nj the house and told
the farmer that his farm was just what
he wanted. He had the cash to pay
down, and he offered him all or more
than it was worth. They made a deal
hut of course before the purchaser
paid amy money down he wanted 10 90
and examine the registry office, to
which he and the farmer proceeded.
They found the bond registered against
the place .or $500 and the farmer,
rather than miss a good sale, paid the
$500 in order TO get clear title. He
then looked for his friend who had pur-
chased bis farm. but he was nowhere to
no found He only then learned that
he had been swindled out of his money.
The swindler has not been heard from

THE GAZETTE imagines that the efforts of Dal-
las to make the late effort a success had some
thing sinister in them. It says:
''To Dallas: When next you buy an exhibit
in the Texas Spring Palace be sure you send
men enough to receive the goods. Fort Worth
stands guard at the Texas Spring Palace entrance
and the exhibits viii remain therein until the
Palace closes. 1t was very slick trick, but
it could not be played on Fort WORTH
What does this mean?-fDallas News,
1t means this: On Wednesday, June
10, when it was well known that the
Palace would be kept open until June 81,
and perhaps until July 4, Dallas man
came to Fort Worth and bought certain
exhibit from two of the three men claim
ing to control such exhibit, it being
agreed that such exhibit should be re-
moved from the Palace the next day,
Thursday, June 90 The exhibit was not
removed. Now, if Dallas yearned to
make the Palace a success why did
Dallas man seek to lessen its attractions?
If Dallas loved the county that sent the
exhibit, why did Dallas man seek to
remove the exhibit from where it could
be seen by many to private office where
it could be seen by few? Had the ex-
hibit been purchased to be removed after
the close of the Palace nothing would
have been thought of the matter.

are presumably in search of remedies for
wrongs against the trade ana manufae-
turing development of Texas, and are
certainly not supposed to be in hunt OF
office through agitation against railroads
Neither the meeting at Fort
Worth tonight nor the state
convention az Dallas should per-
nit its deliberations to be embar-
raised by indlscriminative discussion of
freight tariffs and special passenger
rates, The true contention on the part
of the people, it would seem, is this
The railroads are as much a part of the
state as any other interest, and when the
railroads are so managed as to indicate
an independence of responsibility they
should be impressed with the
predominance of the whole to
any OF its parts and be promptly
taught that no interest eau segregate it,
self from the common veal or woe. This
policy is pursued with other Interests ia
the state, and the roads themselves are
to be benefited by hearty aequiescence
in the claim that they are not separate
from the state but part of it. Ger
talnly the owners of Texas roads have a
common interest with the people of
Texas, and if the managers of
these roads refuse to recognize this iden-
tity of interest, then they must be COM
PEELED to do so; but the state cannot at
ford to be unjust to any while asserting
justice to all.
If there is any remedy within the
power of the roads for the
wrongs in freight tariffs, the roads
should be compelled to apply it
in case they refuse to do so will
ingly. And when these freight charges
are disposed of, the Dallas meeting might
probably employ itself in discussing the
generous cooperation of Texas roads in
special rates for taking people out of
Texas and their inability or unwillingness
to secure from their connections like
liberal policy towards movements for
bringing people into Texas. But it
should be borne in mind that
the freight tariff and the special
passenger rate are separate propositions.
The Texas roads have direct peou-
mary interest in the development of
Texas, and if the Dallas meeting can
ascertain why the management of the
roads so often appears obhvious of the
fact. perhaps the owners of the roads
will join hands with the people in opening
the eyes of the management.

PERHAPS if the passenger service on
certain roads IN Texas was improved the
hostility to roads in Texas would be d.
minished. Through some means the peo-
pie and the roads are growing further
apart when a common interest demands
active cooperation. The people give
heavy yerdicts against the roads and
roads give poor passenger service and
evinee no interest in movements to
bring people to Texas. Which shall
take the initiative in an effort to bind
the two in closer union? The railroads
missed a golden opportunity last month.
No good to either people or roads can
result from the present feeling of antag-
onism.

Il TEXAS PALACE IN THE NORTH.
The Fort Worth Spring Palace is closed for
this year. In every sense it is understood to
have been a success, and as an advertisement of
the resources of Texas in compact space and
beautiful design, and for the most part thor
oughly practical, it has never been equaled.
Would not some such elaborate advertisement
located in New York, and possibly some other
large Eastern or Western city, pay royal inter-
est on the outlay? The cost would be light on
the respective cities and counties of Texas, self
taxed for the purpose, and who can estimate the
returnsP It win ut all events forever kill, bury
and water the grave of the heretical idea that
Texas is only state for cattle and the cowboy
-[Austin Statesman.
The Statesman offers a suggestion that
was debated by the Texas Spring Palace
management in an informal manner, but
the probability of obtaining the money to
carry out the scheme was not encourage
ing, and Fort Worth did not feel able to
carry the load. Once established, say in
Chicago and New York, it was argued
that a duplicate of the Palace would
attract patronage profitable TO the
management, as the unique display is
well calculated to interest the public.
On the other hand, it was urged that the
prime object of the Palace was to induce
people to come to Teas and thus enable
them to see the state as it is and not as
it Is falsely represented to be. Answer
was made to this that the Palace in New
York or Chicago. or in both places, would
SO favorably advertise Texas that people
would be tempted to come and see the
state from which such wonderful exhibit
emanated. But the money necessary to
prepare and transport and set up the ex-
hiblt did not appear TO be available and
the subject was dropped without formal
debate. Perhaps after the exhibit next
spring, Fort Worth may be able TO carry
the Palace display northward and show
the people of the Union the rare oppor-
tunities offered in Texas to the capitalist
and home seeker.

EFFECTIVE ADVERTISING.

The magic effect of advertising was IL
Illustrated recently in the settlement be-
tween the Hoaglands and Zieglers.
These people owned baking powder
which has been popular in the market
for some years, and when they come to
make division of their property it was
found to be worth S., 900 900. Now,
though their powder IS doubtless a good
one, still it is no better, perhaps, than
many others in the market. How, then,
did they make so much money out of it?
By judicious advertising. No matter
how good the article you have to sell, if
the public does not know 1t, the public
will not buy. Barnum, who is probably
the greatest advertiser in the country,
considered the getting of good thing as
only the beginning of business. Letting
the people know it, putting it before
their eyes in an attractive manner and
keeping it there constantly was the far
more important point. Mr.. Barnum has
made advertising pay, and SO have
majority of those who have undertaken
it in a practical and systematic manner.
Spasmodic efforts IN this line do not yield
good results. The proper mode is to
keep the advertisement standing, so that
the eye becomes accustomed to see it
whenever the paper is picked up. This,
of course, applies to newspaper advertIs-
ing, for there is little of any other kind
worthy the name.
