The Dallas and Fort Worth papers are stirring
up their people to build a railroad TO the north
west, and seem to be playing game of "bluh. -
THE GAZETTE uses this argument to hurry up its
people: ''If Fort Worth builds railroad to the
northwest Dallas cannot get the money to build
a railroad to the northwest. Men who buy rail-
road bonds are not idiots, and will not put their
capital in two roads in frontier country" But
Dallas has already commenced work.-[Brenham
Banner.
The earnestness and business-hke methods OF
the Dallas and Pacific management, together
with the large expenditures already incurred,
ought to dissipate at once the idea that they are
''blufing" It was first suggested by the Fort
Worth paper, which is an adept in such things.
-IDallas Times Herald, last fall.
All, there! 1.-THE earnest and bust
ness-Iike methods of the Fort Worth
and Albuquerque has knocked the
bluff of the D. P. and s. E. into pi. On

Rich merchants of Toxic will organlze
a Lanking institution with capital
of So, 900 900. There will be main
office in the commercial centers of Japan
and China, and branches in New YORK
and San Francisco. Said Nee Soko;
.'B7 such chain of financial
institutions the monetpry transactions or
the two oriental countries can be brought
into nearer and more systematic COM
nupication. Il will also lessen the diff
culties now experienced in the trans
portation OF $40 900, 900 shipped each
year from the United States to China.
The banks will also be a sound depository
for the natives, who make the best bank
customers in the world. Perhaps the
institution will be so increased that
all foreign banks will be forced
to depart. Although Sokio merchants
are prime movers in the enterprise,
Chinese capt. alists have signed papers to
advance their share of the capital just as
soon as the money is needed.
Nee Soko started for New York to-day 4,
where he hopes to COMPLETE the arrange
neuts for the opening of branch in that
city. He declined to give the names or
