THESE THREE.

The truth of the matter is, Dallas viii have to
hump herself TO prevent Fort Worth getting
ahead. The Post is beginning to believe what
THE GAzErTE has so long contended for-that
Houston, San Antonio and Fort Worth are the
future cities of Texas.-[H Houston Post.
For six years THE GAZETTE has been
laboring to convert the Post to the true
faith, to-wit: that trunk lines will win.
San Antonio is without opposition in the
southwest as railroad center; Houston
was, up to a short time ago, the greatest
railroad center in Texas; for ten years
Fort Worth has steadily kept in view
the purpose of the men who realized that
its one hope of supremacy was IN be-
coming the great trunk line center of the
Southwest, and, through good and evil
report, up hill and down bill, despite
guarantees and reports OF diabetes
in its artesian water, this city
never lost its grip or wavered

Democrats in the North, - for the reason
| that the solidity of this section seems a
| constantly less excusable phenomenon. -
We refrain from making some very
suggestive comments here because we re-
member that the Herald is not authorized
to speak for Northern Democrats; but
there is one fact that ought to be con-
sidered by the esteemed free lance,
whose words we have been quoting,
namely-that neither Democratic success
nor Democratic defeat can have any
| effect or any real bearingsbn the solidity
of the South
The Herald's idea (Which is the general
idea) is that the solidity of the South is n
political affair. 1t is most curious that such
an idea should prevail among men of INTEL
ligence. Politics have only the. remotest
connection with the situation. The South
is solid, not to elect Democrats to office
at the North, but TO protect itself from
the tribulations with which it was visited
shortly after the war
The issues of the reconstruction period
were social rather than political, and
these are the issues now. The South is
no less solid when the Democrats are in
power in Washington than when the Re-
publicans have charge. Neither party
so has power to change the situation
far as the South is concerned.
If, as the Herald suggests, the solid
South is burdensome to Northern Demo-
Gratis, it is a very easy matter indeed for
Northern Democrats to whirl in and hoe
their own row, and leave the solid South
to its own resources Those who, like
the editor of the Herald, believe that the
situation here is merely political, have
no right to discuss it until they can do so
with their eyes open.
Meanwhile, the solid South will be as
long-lived and as burdensome as the
negro problem. If the Herald will solve
for us this problem it Will dissolve the
solid South

in its purpose-and behold the reward.
The trunk lines are here, and they have
been recognized by the United States
government, by the Pullman Palace Car
company by the Methodist church, by
the International Weighers association
and by real estate investors and numer-
Gus business firms. The Post learns
slowly, as do certain people in North
Texas, of the inevitable influence and
effect Of trunk lines, but the day of the
fulfllment of THE GAZETTE IS contention
is at hand. Houston in the southeast,
San Antonio in the southwest and Fort
Worth win be the great cities of Texas.
And if the Post viii but pause and re-
call for one moment that all Northwest
Texas lies west of Fort Worth and that
this city stands between the cheap lands
and all rivals, the Houston paper will
fully believe that with the trunk lines
centered here giving Fort Worth eleven
rail outlets, and all the cheap lands west
of this city, Fort Worth must become the
great city of North Texas, and of the
Southwest.

THE local columns of the THE GAZETTE
yesterday contained this item: 'sFor
two years past H NJ. De Hart, super
visor of weighers of the international
railway association, who at present has
twenty-seven assistants, has made head
quarters at Dallas, but he has finally de-
cided to remove from Dallas to Fort
Worth, and has done so. Asked last
night what had induced him to make the
change, he said: Fort Worth is a
greater railroad center and more bulk
cars are received in this city; besides
Fort Worth is healthier city and more
pleasant place to live AS stated, Mr..
De Hart has as assistants twenty seven

tends cordial greeting to Mr.. De Hart

Correspondence of the Gazette.
TYLER, TEX, Feb. I4.-The East
Texas Fruit and Vegetable shippers as
ISOLATION has about perfected plans for
building cold storage room in this city,
and for the shipment of fruits and vege-
tables to the Eastern markets in refriger-
ator cars. The Cotton Belt road agrees
to furnish the cars and give the
shippers a rate of about 80 cents
per hundred to Chicago. In view
OF these facts truck farming viii be con-

Already they have agreed to ship at least
one car of melons each day during the
melon season, besides large quantities of
vegetables of every description, as al
most everything grows to perfection here.
Capt. John P. Douglas of this city is now
in Chicago perfecting arrangements for
the association.
The work of rebuilding the Grand opera
house is moving rapidly. Your reporter

The Australian Ballot.


There is mistaken idea abroad that
the Australian ballot system, whose adop-
ton is being so strongly urged upon the
Tennessee legislature by those who have
made the subject a study, is too compli-
Gated for the average voter. This i'm
preston, unless it can be successfully
combatted, may deprive the movement
of the earnest support necessary for its
success. The fact is that the law is very
simple and may be easily understood by
any one who viii take the trouble to
examine it. There are many modifi-
cations of it, but we will outline
the general plan in as brief a space as
possible. There need be no qualification
demanded of voters except that they shall
be of a certain age, but If desired it may
be provided that such voters shall register
say thirty days before the election and
that they shall not vote unless they are
registered or can show some good cause
for failure.
The tickets are printed by the state,
county or city, and each one contains the
name of every candidate, with blank
space for new names. One man from
each party who can read with ease is
appointed as inspector and the entire
committee sworn to secrecy. No one else
is permitted to enter the room adjoining
the poll in which the tickets are placed.
Voters who can read select their own
tickets, but one who cannot may request
member Of the committee TO give him
one. He then hands it to clerk, folded:
the clerk puts his initials or stamp on the

GEN. KING ON THE RANGER SER
VICE

| GEN. KING ON THE RANGER SER
VICE.
In his annual report to the governor
Adjutant-G General King pays a just and
deserved tribute to the ranger service
and makes strong plea in favor of its
retention As the official to whom is
specially delegated the supervision of the
exercise of the police powers of the state !,
his ideas upon the subject should have
peculiar weight with the legislature. He
thus expresses Them
The battalion is now too small, as before said
for the many requirements and exigencies of the
public service, and it may so continue; and yet
it is such powerful factor for good, has been of
such immense advantage to the whole border,
and in many other sections; has aided so mater
tally the peaceful progress of our Western settle
ments; has given protection and needed support
to so many courts in weak communities;
has often given encouragement
and hope for the present and
future to the peaceable people, and fright and
confusion to the lawless ones, and has been so
efficient and safe and ready aid to wise execu-
tive authority, as to render its continuance
matter apparently of positive necessity. 1t is by
far the most efficient and economical agency in
the state in the suppression of lawlessness, and
as an adjunct TO active enterprising sheriffs all
over the border its usefulness cannot be easily
measured. The number of criminals arrested by
the rangers, the courts attended and witnesses
protected, the stolen stock returned to its own
ers, are things of Importance, and may be
counted and named; but these all sink into COM
parative insignifcance when balanced
against the moral force, or some
other mighty influence for good, exerted
and made active by the presence of this body of
men in any community where they serve. a SIM
pie ''scout'' by the rangers through any county
infested by lawless men purifes the whole moral
atmosphere, so to speak, and the criminal ele-
ments disappear for the time being. In the in
terest of peace and security to life and property
of law and order and good government, trust
that the wisdom of the honorable legislature so
soon to assemble in this grand capitol building
may induce this body to confide to your excel
lency's hands a yearly sum sufficient to meet all
reasonable demands made for the continued
service of this frontier force.

OK-CART ROT.

Give the loan agents an opportunity to buy
road bonds, and then Texas will sure enough be
at the mercy of the money lenders. They have
plasters on the farms on both sides of the
country roads, a default ON the part of the bor-
rover gives them the land; default on the part
of the county in paying interest on road bonds
gives them the roads; this leaves the farmer
nothing but little air-pretty picture this,
should the legislature pass road law authorlz-
ing the issuance of bonds-stranger things have
happened.-[Da Southern Mercury.
This is the kind of rot upon which farm
ers are fed by their chosen "organs. -
A county road bond, like all other county
bonds, would be based upon the property
of the county, and glance at the tax
rolls viii show that in Tarrant county.
for instance, the town lots, and not the
farms on both sides of the country
roads, - would pay the major portion of
the tax needed to meet principal and in
terest. AS long as farmers give heed to
appeals to their passions and prejudices
they may expect a diet of air.
What the farmer needs is
means of communication way to
SOI W IldIh6G, W anu W HIS
neighbours house at all times and in any
kinds of weather. The country road is
to the farm what the railroad is to the
town, an educator, a civilizer and pro-
moter of progress, comfort and pros
perity. Isolation is the cruelest enemy
of the farm, and continued isolation,
with all its train of evils to the farm, is
the logical sequence of such ox-cart ar
guments as that addressed to farmers by
their chosen organ.
Means of communication are as essen
tial to the farm as to the town, and it
takes money to provide good, permanent
roadways and that people who first real
ize the truth will be the first to start out
on the path to prosperity. The best
friend of the farm is he who advocates
that which is calculated to make the
farm valuable and to promote the social
life of the farmer.
