Fort Worth Criticized.
Wichita Herald.

The immigration headquarters that
proposes to represent this Northwest
Texas country. is not liable to arouse
any great degree of pride in the minds
of the people of this section, in Its pres
emit location in Fort Worth. Not that
there is any objection to Fort Worth,
but rather to the particular place in Fort
Worth. The room selected is in the
second story of the Board of Trade build
ing. The Board of Trade building Is
located in a part of the town that is not
liable to catch the kind of people this
part of the state is looking for, that is,
farmers. There is very little business
done in that particular locality at any
rate. The headquarters should be placed
in the more populous part of the city
and on the ground floor, so that persons
passing along the streets cannot help
seeing the display advertisements.
Farmers as rule when looking for in
fosmation are not accustomed to LOOK for
elevators and back rooms, in the second
stories of buildings.

less. Here is another appar-
ent mystery which is not en-
tirely explained by the advance in
the prices of corn since last March, an
advance that is not accounted for by the
| partial reduction of rates in Kansas and
Nebraska in February. Besides transpor-
tation charges, other factors, economic
| and commercial must be considered in
solving the knotty problem. A restrict
ed foreign market, and the fact thai
production has outruu consumption at
home has something to do with the low
prices prevailing
In summing up the results of the in
quiry the commission arrives at these
conclusions:
L. That freight charges cannot be SO
limited that the shipper may in all cases
realize the actual cost of production.
2. That charges should have q reason
able relation TO cost of production, but
not so low as to impose q burden on
other traffic.
3. That freight rates between the
Mississippi river and the East are not
excessive.
4. That rates between Western points
and the Mississippi are excessive, and
that seventeen cents from Mississippi
river points to Chicago, and fifteen cents
to the Mississippi river, east side, are
high enough for corn and oats.
5. That any charges between the
Mississippi and New York on wheat and
flour based on rate higher than twenty
three cents from Chicago to New York
are unreasonable, and than the rates on
wheat and -four should in no instance ex-
coed the rates on corn and oats more
than 10 per cent.
The rates on shipments from Kansas to
Texas are declared to be "extortion-
ate. - but as they have been reduced
somewhat of late, especially on corn,
that item of the report serves merely to
show the opinion of the commission.
So it will be seen that the report of the
commission still leaves the question of
the relation of freight charges to unre-
munerative prices an open one. 1t shrinks
from attempting to establish the relation
of cause and effect between the former
and the latter. Neither does it hold that
excessive rates had nothing to do with
prices. Locally, it is admitted that they
have, but as respects the entire country,
the commission pleads the lack of accu-
rate information and reliable data i'm
possible to get, as reason for its ina
bIlity 70 say what shall be considered
reasonable rate in all cases, and how
far existing rates are responsible for IN
remunerative prices.

WAR has again broken out between
st. Paul and Minneapolis, making lurid
the sky over the-wo rival cities. Sus-
pecting or having reason to believe that
some crookedness was being praoticed in
the taking of the census in Minneapolis,
citizens of st. Paul procured the arrest
by government officers one day this
week OF seven enumerators, and the
capture of lot of documentary matter,
actual proof it is said, of an elaborat.
and well planned scheme to pad the cen
sus rolls TO the tune of 40, 900 or so 900.
A judicial inquiry will develop the facts
in the case which by all accounts,
promise to be pretty rocky for
Minneapolis.

Andy Farrell is Yet Alive, but Exhibits Fatal
Eymntoma

Andy Farrell is Yet Alive, but Exhibits Fatal
symptoms.
Andy Farrell, who was so badly stab
bed at the foot of Calhoun street or
thereabouts Saturday night, was at noon
yesterday, being still alive. removed to
the hospital, where under the treatm emit
of skilled physicians and nurses every
thing is being done to ease his condition.
1t is almost impossible for him to sur
viye. Since his wound was sewed up
his stomach has swelled and extended to
abnormal size, and he lies on his couch
at the hospital with but few hours lease
OF life.
He maintains his obstinate refusal to
divulge the circumstances of the stab
bling, and the officers have not been able
to locate the responsible parties. 1t is
hoped that the wounded man will give up
the facts before death claims him, that
outraged law may be indicated.

A Good Paper.


We feel it not in the least despairing to
any other daily or weekly Texas paper
when the Cyclone asserts that the Fort
Worth GAZETTE leads the field OF jour-
nallsm in the Lone Star state to-day land
it assuredly deserves its present pc pular-
ity and prosperous vantage
gained by the purest mo-
tives and almost superhuman efforts in
behalf of people like Texans; and THE
GAZETTE is for the people, of the people
and by the people, instead of being built
up by railroads and other monopolies.
Every Texan who needs a first class news
paper for the home circle should send q
dollar to the Fort Worth GAZETTE, Fort
Worth Texas, and enjoy one years rich
harvest of mental blessings. Well may
Fort Worth be proud of its GAZETTE as
Texas is of the Spring Palace City by the
Trinity, for its push pluck land persever-
anoe is unexcelled by any.
Some Texas rhymer once sang of the
Galveston News,
''Whose great chief editor is Belo
All other Texas editors in name,
Yet, as the Texas press hero,
Stands highest on the roll of fame
Vow the Cyclone "sees' that "gush'
and goes it one better, thusly,
The editor OF the Fort Worth GAZETTE
Is no stranger to fortune or fame,
And on Fort Worth we can safely bet
While THE GAZKTTE gets there all the same.

DR.. PHILLIP BROOKS, in his bacca-
laureate address at Harvard, alluded to
the TACT that 100 years ago a provision
was made for an annual sermon, the
theme to be "Agaiust Enthusiasm. - If
the Conservatives that lived in that day
could be resurrected and walk the streets
OF new cities in the dress of their day +,
their garb would scarcely be more an
tiquated than their ideas. Enthusiasm
is what makes heroes, reformers, and
pioneers, and without it the stream of

Tue GAZETTE employs thirty night and fou,
day hands in the compostors' rooms, and has q
well systematized business. 1t requires about
5000 every month TO run such paper as THE
GAzETTK.- Fort Worth Trade Review.
Our neighbor is mistaken. 1t costs
over $40, 900 month to run THE GA
zETTE. This paper pays out in Fort
Worth for labor alone nearly $4,000 q
month. In fact, THE GAZETTE lacks but
a few dollars Of returning in actual cash
to the city every dollar paid to it by the
city. Such papers as THE GAZETTE
could not live on the patronage alone of
any city in the state. Whatever it does
for Fort Worth outside of returning to
the city all the money it collects from
the city is clear gain to Fort Worth that,
up to this writing, has made more out of
THE GAZETTE than any Individual firm
or corporation.

NEW YORK, June PA split occur
red in the Central Labor Union to-day.
The Socialistio delegates withdrew and
formed a new central body, which will
be known as the Central LGber Fedora
ton. Anticipating this action the couser-
natives, at the instance of the building
trade section passed a resolution denying
socialists the right of representation in
the original organization. The war OF
words thus aroused was loud aud vigor-
Gus, and for a time il looked as though
the opposing factions would come to
blows. The socialists were called igno-
rant foreigners, usurpers and nation
wreckers, while they in turn character
lied the conservatives as boodlers, pads
and professional politicians. and dubbed
the place as 'boodler'5 hall. - Then
the resolution passed, and the fire eaters
were put out.
