Appeal

Mr.. Tom c. Evans of Fort Worth, ,
Tex, sends the Appeal a
copy OF new journal started in that
city for the purpose of telling the world
what is being done in that aspiring mu-
nicipnlity. They are beginning TO build
everything, from dime museum to a
dome of st. Peters over there, and in
the railroad columns of the local papers
is the cry: "On to TopolObampo!'
Whenever Fort Worth declares her in
tentIon of building railroad the people
along the line of the proposed route take
their children off the street for fear they
will be run over by train, and Cowboy
Paul Reveres rush through the country
shriekiug: "Look out for the engine

practical idea in q few plain words than
Mr.. Hurley. In his speech at the
Il custom convention on "The Best
Methods 20 Induce Immigration, he
started of by saying: Build up and
support your home papers. Make them
the medium of telling the world of your
town, county and city, There is
world of common sense in that. If you
send to man in q distant state copy
OF some special edition of a paper, soma
advertising scheme concocted for the
good of the publishers, he looks at it
sees what it is, and throws it aside, or
else reads and refuses to believe it. But
send him every day for six months q
copy of daily paper, or every week 70
year copy of good weekly, and the
effect will be different. The first
few copies will be Little noticed;
then he VIII begin to read
It; he will see the advertisements
of live merchants and business men; he
will notice the volume of trade; he will
become interested in and acquainted
with the resources OF the surrounding
country, and 1t will make an impression
on his mind. He knows that untrue
statements OF the country's resources
are not reiterated day after day, for that
would make the paper ridiculous in the
eyes of its own people; he knows that
merchants who advertise largely are do
ing large business, for men do not
spend their money for nothing. Finally,
when the conditions which surround
HIM become dstasteful and he decides to
hunt new fields, the locality about which
he has read so much Is the frat to which
he turns. He feels that he knows the
people there, and that when he meets
them he will be among friends. So
he sells out his property, packs his
household effects and moves into the new
country, arriving there firm believer
in its greatness and ready to take hold
with. the hustlers and do his share towards
making it greater.
The home paper is your best and
cheapest missionary.

TEXAS SCHOOLS AND CHURCHES

We shall no. have much longer to
wait, says the Arkansas Pass Beacon, for
the foundation of our fne high school
building to be laid, when the superb
structure will be pushed to as speedy
completion as possible.
The old primitive Baptist church in
Farmersville, Collin county, Is to be re-
built. The money is subscribed.
In conversation with Professor Whita-
ker, principal of the Wiley university, Il
school for coIored students, a reporter of
the Marshall Star learned that the brick
work has been finished and the carpen-
tiers are completing their work on the in
dustrial school for females. 1t will be
ready for occupancy in time for the next
term of school. There will be about
fifty girls to enter at the beginning. a
carpenter shop for the boys will be
erected 10 the near future, when the
boys Will be drilled in mechanism about
three hours per day. a shoe repnrer
has already been secured, and the bows
study the art by repairing the students
shoes on Saturday. The boys also work
on the farm connected with the school,
and raised $50 bushels of potatoes this
year, as well as over 100 bushels of corn
and several tons of hay. The school
now has 2ll pupils, an advance of about
fl fly over last year.

IN spite of the fact that the PEG
pie have set the seal of condemnation
upon the Republican robber tariff, the
probabilities are that the law will con-
tiuue as it is for the remainder OF the
present century. The admission OF the
Northwestern territories has given the
Republican party q clnch on legislation,
FOR, even IL the Democrats elect a sena-
tor 10 ill every vacancy that occurs. the
year 1900 will arrive before they can get
control of the senate, and as long as the
Republican party chooses TO stand in the
way of tariff reform, its members in that
body will defeat any bill that Demo-
cratic house may originate or Demo-
cratic president stand ready to sign. The
people, meanwhile, are in the condition
of the little black bull so beautifully and
touchingly described by the Kentucky
poet:
They tied his tail TO a hickory stump,
And ne pitched and he paved, but he coul dn's
jump.

Takes the Rag.
Austin Capitolian


The Times Herald favors Mr.. r. I
Miner of Henderson for speaker of the
house.
We will let the Times Herald into q
Secret Hon. John Cochran of Dallas
is q candidate for speaker - Fort Worth
Mail.
Miner and Cochran are both good men
and have legislative experience, but if
the Mail will listen for only breath,
the Capitolian will tell it something
else. 1t is an open secret that j. n.
Browning of the heretofore ignored Pam
handle country, will tear the speaker
ship rag from the bush, and unless East
Texas aud Dallas wants half dozen
planets and a slice of the moon, they
should be modest enough TO Withdraw
their candidates ana indorse Browning.
1t will be better to do this than to be
forced to submit TO defeat, which low
seems inevitable.

OBITUARY.

WILLIAMsoN.- Sallle G. Will. Hanson, daughter of pr. J. J. and Mrs E. c. Harten, was born October 23, 1857, near Quitman. Cleburne cou nty, Ark. She professed religion at the early age of ten years and joined the NJ, E. church, south. She was united in marriage Nov. 6, 1877 to Mir. Robert T. Williamson, formerly Of Pope coun- ty. She was educated at Qultman Male and Female college, being one of the first students to enter said school. It was my pleasure as a friend of the family to know Mrs. Williamson well. She was an exemplary christian and possessed, in remarkable degree, that most beautiful christian grace, charity, which "thinketh no evil" She was an aifectionate wife, fond mother, a true friend and devoted and c0nsis- tent christian. Her life was one that commanded the respect and admiration of every one who knew her. Died at Pinnacle Springs June 8, 1890. A de- voted, christian husband and four children mourn her loss. K. II. M.
