RAILWAY MATTERS.
Harvest Excavations.


The harvest excursions on the Cotton
Belt, Texas and Pacific and other lines
have begun to arrive, the first INSTALL
ment coming in over the former road
night before last. Last night trains on
both the Cotton Belt and Texas and
Pacific came in loaded down with exour-
sionists, who have taken advantage of
the low rate offered by the roads to see
Texas. Those who have come so far are
from the Southeastern states, and they
are good class of farmers who are look
ing after cheap homes in good farming
country. This Cotton Belt brought in
five coaches loaded with them, and the
Texas and Pacific followed with a large
contingent. These excursionists are an
evidence what railroads can do towards
bringing people to Texas if they try to
do so. The waste places in the Western
and Northwestern states will be con-
verified into splendid farms through cheap
railI Dad fare, and the same can be done
in Texas if the roads wish it.

The American Girl.

The latest of heroes for fashionable
worship is Rudyard Kipling, writer of
fiction, who has achieved considerable
distinction and has been recently visiting
literary centers in this country. Like
all foreigners he has taken notes, and
like some of these has published few of
his impressions.
Americans are noted for a thin epider-
mis- and unlike their stolid ancestor, the
sturdy Briton, are not so satisfied with
themselves as to be insensible under the
scalpel OF foreign surgeon. 1t is well
however TO read of ones faults. and
honest criticism like drastic medicine
may be beneficial An American poet,
1t had almost been written the American
poet speaks of stepping stones of dead
selves, as means of ascent to higher
things, and a knowledge of points of
weakness given by the criticism of an
outsider may lead TO improvement that
shall be widespread in it's effects
This shrewd observer speaks of "our
girls'' most pleasantly, aud the freedom
he finds accorded to young women, es-
pecially excite his comment. While this
comment is not altogether unfavorabIs
IL is easily apparent that such license
does not meet his full appreciation. In
contrast with the English maiden, he
says that an American girl is piqusnt,
that she looks one full in the face with
una0ashed eyes as sister might a
brother That she seems TO have a
thorough understanding of the masculine
species aud adapts herself with equal
ease to the boy, the beau or the patri-
arch. This same maids en- has her opinions

An old-Time Cattle Nan Talks of the
Changes in the Cattle Business
that Must Come

| An old-Time Cattle Nan Talks of the
Changes in the Cattle Business
that Must Come.
"Every quarter section OF land broken
up in Texas for cultivation, " remarked
an old cattle man to q GAZETTE reporter
yesterday. destroys range for sixteen
head of cattle, and at the rate popula-
ton is now pouring into the Panhandle
and other sections of Texas 1t will not be
many years before this will begin to tell.
1 have been Watching this thing for
several years, and as l see the agricult-
ural district growing larger and larger
and the grazing sections becoming more
and more contracted, have been forced
to the conclusion that it will not be
many years until large cattle ranches
will be scarce.
cit used to be said that the Almighty
did not intend Texas for anything but
cattle ranch, but the lie has been given
that long ago. The fertile lands of the
state are becoming too valuable to be
kept for cattle pastures. There are
few men who own their pastures who
will, no doubt, keep them intact and
maintain large ranches, but those who
own a few sections and lease thousands
of acres will soon find that they will
have to give up the leased lands to the
man with a hoe.'' lam an old man
now, but 1 expect to live to see the day
when Texas has 200 200 more people
within her borders than she has
to-day, and the broad prairies west and
northwest of Fort Worth will be thickly
settled with a good class of farmers. 1
expect to see the day when cattle in
Texas will be much scarcer than they are
now, but there will be more good cattle
to the square mile than there is now to
the country. The large herds of COM
mon cattle will in great measure dis
appear, and II their places will come
well titled farms, each OF which will
have q small herd of improved cattle,
one of which will bring as much money
as three of the old kind.
'There is kind of sentiment, 1 DON t
know what else to call it, thar makes me
contemplate these inevitable changes
with a feeling akin to sorrow. Il
have been tied to tbe cattle business
the range cattle business-so long you
may know that / am attached to it,
and while am bound TO admit that the
changes going on are all for the best, 1
