IN NEW YORK they are having tough
time with the law that provides for ex-
ecuting criminals sentenced to death by
electricity. One Kemmler has been
sentenced to die in this manner, and his
lawyers now have the case in court on
the plea that execution by electricity is
prohibited by the constitution, which
says criminals shall not be executed in a
cruel or unusual manner. The fight is
one of technicaIities, and may eventually
save the life of a murderer.

Thus far the get-together organs have neg
lected to tell us why free trade capital is seeking
investment in protected American industries
minneapolis Tribune.
THE GAZETTE is not 'get-together
organ, - but the information asked is so
easily gwen that it is willing to enlighten
the Tribune's ignorance. Free trade
capital is seeking investment in protected
American industries because it recog-
nizes the fact that, though the workmen
in these industries starve, the capitalists
wax fat. In short, they see that the
whole scheme of protection means every
thing for capital and nothing for labor.
Ask a harder one.

MR.. STEAD, the editor of the Pail Mall
Gazette, who created such sensation a
few years ago with his Modern Baby
lon'' articles, is about to retire from
that paper. Mr.. Stead tried to popular
ize sensational journalism in London
and failed, whether because the
English people were too sluggish
and too set in their ways to
''catch on'' or whether they were
too heightened for such things is not
known. Lovers of pure, moral jour
nalism will not be sorry for the failure of
the sensational kind in London, and
hopefully look forward to its downfall in
this country.

field rifles arrived here this morning
from Philadelphia and were taken to
the Homestead Bessemer steel works OF
Carnegie, Phipps s. Co.. at Homestead,
Pa. They will be placed about the mill
property to protect it and the wOrkmea
from the strikers. The sheriff Will also
swear in a posse of 100 deputies for the
same purposes. The struggle prOmisss
to be the most bitter in the history OF
strikes and lOckouts in this section. Both
sides are determined aud a long fight II
anticipated. Everything is quiet about
the works this morning. No more mea
have arrived and the plant is still
silent.
At noon 125 deputies, under ex-Sherif
Gray, arrived on the train, at Home
stead. They were Immediately sur
rounded by strikers to the number Of
nearly a thousand and requested to re-
turn to the city The deputies refused
to do so and the crowd would not ALLOW

HOW TO BOOM TEXAS.
Establish a Miniature Exposition at st. Louis
and Entertain the Visitors

Establish a Miniature Exposition at st. Louis
and Entertain the Visitors.
To the Gazette.
In an article published in THE GA
zETTE July 10, headed How to do It, -
Texas Boomer struck the key note to
successful Texas boom.
He says a perpetual Texas baby expo
sition in New York. Boston, Chicago,
st. Louis and other cities with the right
man in charge to show it up, will accom-
plish more in one year for our state
than any five state fairs held in Texas.
And 1 most heartily indorse what he
says. Suppose a live, wide-awake man
be sent to st. Louis Gas that is the key
to Texas emigration): that he rents a
commodious room as near the terminal
of all Eastern railway lines as possible,
places a large sign in front, bearing
these words, ''Fort Worth Baby Spring
Palace. Admission free. Capitalists
and home seeker walk in and see what
advantages Texas can offer you. -
Let the several counties send liberal
specimens, paying the express charges
thereon, and every county assigned a
place, with large map of Texas, where
each county could be seen at a glance.
Then the one in charge could prove TO
the capitalist that his interests lay in this
direction, and to the home-seeker that
beneath the sunny skies of Texas he could
find home to his liking If 1 was in
charge of such place, would have boys
to scatter flyers at every incoming train,
inviting travellers to the exposition build
ing to see the wonderous wealth of Texas
IN miniature, and when got them there
would try not to lose my grip.
When this plan materializes, please
note that l am a candidate to blow a
Texas horn. p. A. LOCKE.

people. AS one who. represented the
only county in Texas at the convention

blame the railroads for the failure
of the immigration bureau or accuse
them of not advertising Texas when the
papers were furnished them. l placed
over one hundred and ffty thousand

Prior to June 10 Fort Worth aud Gal
weston were the only Texas cities re-
ported, and are therefore the only two
included by the Post in its half-yearly
report.
An examination of the above figures
viii prove of interest. In the weekly
report Fort Worth shows percentage of
increase of 9O3, while only one other
city shows an increase as high as 20 per
cent. The report ending June 90, the
week previous, shows a gain of 81 3 for
Fort Worth. The semi-annuaI report
shows that only one city had greater
increase than Fort Worth, viz: Denver;
but the monthly report of the Post shows
the gain of Fort Worth to be At per cent.
and that of Denver 26.6 per cent.
These figures prove that the business Of
Fort Worth is increasing more rapidly than
that of ony other city in the Union. Many
other cities have much larger exchanges
than Fort Worth, but no one of them at
all approximates the percentage of in
crease shown by this city.
An interesting feature of the report is
the record of Los Angeles, Cal. which
shows loss Of 50. 3 per cent.

odd scene the other day which, when
recounted, may possibly amuse the
reader. One of those not infrequent,

necessities. had arisen which take me
to a stable-on this occasion to a
large establishment in the vicinity of
Chardon street 1t was about 3
O'Clock in the afternoon and various
people were starting for home, among
them a man and woman who had a
remarkably intelligent looking gray
horse lust as he began to trOt down
the lane by which the stable is reach
ed from the street, a stout party
who, | noticed, had been watching
the gray very intently, suddenly
cried out in a loud voice. Dan, don't
YOU want a piece of cake2" The
horse stopped short, picked up his
ears. looked around and uttered a
faint whinny of recognition and as
sent; nor would he go on until the
stout man had come forward and ex-
planned his interference. 1t appeared
that several years before he had
brought the horse from Vermont,
where he owned him for some time,
and as the beast was particularly
docIle he had taught him the true
sense of the question the sudden ask

standstill 1t is well known that
