p. nj. tomorrow to decide the date of the

pointed by the city council held con-
ference last night with the citizens COM
mittee, and discussed the situation. The
general expression of the meeting was
strongly IN favor of urging the city council
to procure the necessary fire apparatus
and also n good chemical engine. The
agents Ct the various fire engine manufac-
turing companies will shortly be given an
opportunity TO show the respective merits
of their machines and the one approved as
best will receive an order. A good fire

California Cattle Snnnlv.

SAN Francisco, July l0-A wholesale
butcher and cattle dealer. speaking this
morning concerning the probability of the
scarcity of cattle in Nevada having an un-
favorable effect upon prices in this city,
said:
Butchers are now asking cents per pound for
first-ciass beef AID from that figure down. Our
supplies are ample for any possible demand.
California has sufficient cattle for all purpose
and what is more, the stock is in such splendid
condition that our people have never had such
fine meat as they are now getting. We depend
usually on supplies from Oregon and Nevada 10
some extent but this year we are getting moth
ing from those two sources. California has all
the cattle tina. will be needed. and has some 10

HARRISON Nv THE LEAD.

We are told that Harrison proposes to
congress, and that he will make the
brethren toe the mark. Every soldier
must be at his post of duty duly armed
and equipped, and ready to march or
dance, as the august leader requires,
ut moments notice. Ben means bust
ness with a big B, and is determined 10
show the Disguised people of this monop-
oily ridden land that he is leader from
LeaderviIle. Quay must step aside, also
Reed and Lodge, and Blaine even must
subordinate his prstensions to those of
the Hoosler statesman. There is a rumor
current at Washington that Blaine and
the president have agreed TO compact
by which the one who deyelopes the
greater strength in the party during the
presidential campaign shall have the
support of the other for the nomination.
But that is all bosh. Benjamin is not
the man to admit the possibility of an
other having greater pull with the peo-
pie than he himself has. The late
election? Well, he was not in that.
Besides, it is an off year, the season of
surprises. Let the magic name of Har-
risou emblazon the banners of the Re-
publican hosts. and victory follows them
wherever they go.
There are two attributes in Harrison 3
character that are worthy of undying
admiration. They are his sublime conf
dence in his own powers and popularity,
and his trust in God. The Supreme
Ruler made him president once. To
DOUBT that He may do so again, if for no
other reason than to vindicate the wis
dom of the first selection, would DE an
act of nonstrous impiety and forgetful-
ness. This sweet-souled trustfHlness of
the president in his Maker is the most
touching thing about him, except, per-
haps, his inclination for dollar cottages
and the like. He never refuses to touch
whatever Providence or Wanamaker
send him, whether it be the presidency
or seaside cottage.

10 see a few OF the Fort Worth

Appropos Of land agents. We
heard good yarn on leading real es-
tate firm Of that city. The principal
members of the firm a-s old cowmen and
for several years made their headquar-
tiers in Shackelford county. They
learned how to hustle while punching
the festive COW, and since turning their
attention to real estate occasionally
make things hum. The firm advertised
in the paper that they had ''city lots to
exchange for farms, and q. good old
Tarrant county farmer appeared and in
formed them he had farm he wanted to
convert into city property and would
like to see their lots. So the agents took
MIN in their carriage to their lots which
are south of town, and showed him all
the good points and advantages of the
property, telling him the price aud as
surfing him confidently that he would
make a fortune in twelve months, If he
would only invest. After the farmer
had looked at the property the agent
asked him where his farm was and was
Father taken aback by the answer,
''about three miles over there between
this and Fort Worth.'' The agent had
the man four miles out in the country
trying to sell him town lots.

TEXAS IN TYPE,
TEXAS CROPS AND WEATHER.

Cotton picking is about over in Hood
county and the yield has aggregated
more than was expected.
A larger area than ever has been led
down in wheat this year IN Crosby
county, says the News, and the recent
rains will be q great benefit to it.
A great deal OF prairie hay, sorghum
and other forage crops have been saved
i'll Randall county this season, and people
generally are prepared to carry their
stock safely aud probably through the
winter.
TERRELL, Nov. % The actual re-
ceipts of cotton now reach about II 900
bales local. Cotton came to-day from
nearly every county bordering on Kauf-
man, and yesterday cotton was brought
from over fifty miles east of Terrell.
The recsips to-day have been immense.
MIDLOTHIAN, Nov. 26.-The small
grain crops of this section are looking
fine. A heavy frost fell here on the
mornings of the 9th and 2Sth.
LEwGsvILLE, Nov. 2S.-There was q
practical brick maker and brick house
builder here yesterday, md there is an
other to-day. The air is thick with ru-
mors of brick houses and railroads, and
it is pretty safe to say that by the time
the robbins nest again there will be I'M
portant changes in the affairs of Lewis
Vile. There are at least six men, mer-
chants, in Lewisville who are able
financially to build brick houses, and
who are now doing business in old sham
ties that are not satisfactory to them.
Whenever the right man makes them the
right kind of offer, they will build.

money, an increase of the "circulating
medium hes been their more or less
constant demand. That was the shib-
baleth of the Greeubackers, the Grange,
the Patrons of Husbandry, and is the
raliying cry to-day of the Alliances in
the South and the r. NJ. B. a. IN the
North. To the demand for more money
and cheaper rates of interest, all other
questions are subordinated. The tariff
is only a secondary matter. Pension
creased foreign trade and economy Of
government expenditures, are scarcely
thought OF. Increase the volume of
currency, and ali elss will come in good
time. The policy is one idea d, but the
cry for it is none the less urgent.
In what form or manner, the food OF
cheap money is to be let loose over the
country for irrigating purposes, is not
fully agreed upon. The oranges in the
North ask for direct loans from the gov
ernment. The Alliances of the South favo'
shop attachment. Perhaps Us both
favor an expansion of the currency they
could get together quite easily on the
methods by which the financial change
III view might be secured. Until they do
agree upon some concerted plan OF CAM
paisn they will accomplish very little in
impTessing congress or the country with
the importance of their pet measures.
II Is hardly probable that even then they
will get what they want. for the country
is not yet sufficiently mad to Arsentineize
itself or plunge recklessly into South
sea bubble.
When the clamor for greenbacks was
at its highest il was fully believed by
those smitten with the craze that nothing
but a deluge of that species of money
could save the country and all in It from
going to eternal smash. The came class
OF men, or rather their leaders, are now
predicting dire calamities if the farmer
shall be denied the privilege of borrow
ing money at q nominal rate Of interest
from the government or of giving Uncle
Sam chattel mortgage on his crops ut
low Interest. This ia no less delusion
than the other, and like that, or an at
tack of fever, will have to run Its course.
There seems to be no help for it.

We are glad the road law amendment
pulled through. 1t is of more Importance
to us than almost any other question that
our state administration will consider.
Good roads are rs important as anything
else. No city can hold the trade of any
considerable section of country without
good roads leading to that country. No
county ever did or ever will have good
roads from couscript labor alone. 1t is
not right to do this IL 1t was expedient.
We had just as well call all the people in
to work SO many days when we go to
build a new jail or courthouse as to call
them in to build ana keep up their high
ways, and We would get just about as
good jail as We get roads by that sys-
ten. Let US have no more foollshness
or injustice In the matter, but let us
have good roads and have them paid for,
just as We pay for any other public
work.
