shipped another would be on hand to take
its place in the pens. And the cry is,
"Still they come!' as fast as cars can
be had for shipment.
The Childress Land and Cattle COM
pany, of which Maj. R. L. Ellison of
Fort Worth is manager, has shipped the
bulk of their cattle to Kansas and the
Indian Territory and Will transform their
land in this county, large body, into

The cattle in Cochise county, Arizona,
are in deplorable condition, and the

The development OF the livestock in
dustry in South America is most strik-
ing. Within ten years horses and sheep
have more than doubled in number in
Venezuela, swine have lrebled and cattle
have quadrupled. That country in 1888
had 8 ,4G6 ,29l cattle, 5,727 ,527 sheep,
1929 ,693 hogs and 3s7 ,646 horses.
In the three years 1868 the number
of outbreaks of pleuro- pneumonia in the

SCI and 703; the numbers of diseased

One thing which has prevented mutton
from becoming as general an article of
die as is desirable has been the fact that
ii is by no means the cheapest meat on
the market. Taking one year with an
other, pork is less expensive than any
other meat which Is placed upon the gem
eral table. Beef will come next. And
mutton of good quality rates rather more
costly. This is not because OF so great
difference in price per pound--though it
Is usually higher than beef-but because
IL does not cut 10 so good ADVANTAGE and
is not, in this particular, an economical
meat. Yet q shrewd housewife can
make mutton very cheap article of diet,
while it is certainly more wholesome
than any other meat that can be used.

Editor Gazette.
The inclosed circular letter l refer to
you for information on the following
points:
What executive committee orders
this circular?
Is it the Democratic executive COM
mittee?
If yes, by what authority do they take
this action2
This circular comes from Austin and is
being sent to men, as a rule, who are
known to oppose the railroad commits
sion idea. What interests of the state
and Democratic party are to be ad-
vanced by the nomination Of Mr.. Hall
for governor? The voice OF the populace
is too well known on the commission
business to bear discussion. The only
way to defeat a railroad commission is
to defeat the will of the people. Is 1t to
the interest of the Democracy to attempt
to do thisI
If this circular emanates from the Re-
publican executive committee it will not
amount to much.
While we have some misgivings as to
the wisdom of railroad commission we
have none as to where the people stand
on the subject anu we Dol6V6
that the best interests of the Democracy
of Texas demands that the fullest express
sion by the people in the primaries be in
vited and let the people thus settle for
themselves this question. The plea of
the sophists that railroad commission
will restore railroad construction and de-
velopment in Texas is too transparent to
exclude the light. The interest OF the
Democracy and Texas Is to cleo gov
ernor who will enforce the law to the
letter. Under such governor bad laws
would soon be repealed, and our statutes
purified, so TO speak.
The Democratic state executive COM
mlttee have made one grievous error by
calling the state convention to meet in
an extreme corner of the state, thus
forcing the representatives in some parts
to travel near 100e miles to the conven-
ton. Why was this? VIII was the con-
vention not called for Waco, Dallas,
Fort Worth, Houston or some point that
would be convenient aud less expensive
to the delegates to attend? The Dem
ocracy will speak out loud enough to be
heard and understood on all matters per-
tanning to its interest this year. They
will speak out in the primaries, in the
county conventions and when they go to
San Antonio they win go loaded for bear
The man who fails to hear the slogan at
this hour is as deaf as hitching post.

AS yet It may not have reached the
ears of many but nevertheless there is
talk of the fair association changing its
location to North Dallas, and from the
figures that have been made, 1t does not
seem that such move would be attended
by any loss; on the contrary, it would
seem that the change would result in
considerable financial gain, without any
loss in any respect. The association has
IN its present grounds lis acres of graua
which could be sold for $1,000 Eere,
or a total OF s2 5000 600. Itts sFe5 that

sociatiaf &5did have about $500 900 sur

may not materialize, but however that
NAV be, there are enough attractions al
ready secured in North Dallas to make
the purchasers Of lots in Halls Second

portion to the money invested, they viii
have as big returns, il
not greater, than in any in
vestment they could have made. Sun
