ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.l
New YORK, July lO-The Iron Age reports
the British iron and metal markets from Lon
don: Scotch warrants have ruled somewhat
irregular, selling up 45s Cd, and subsequently
reacting 4d@5d. The improvement early in the
week is attributed to outside buying, due chief
ly to belief that the steady drain upon store
supplies will lead 10 higher average prices later
on. The outside demand, however, is offset at
present by bear" pressure. Cleveland war
rants have been traded in moderately,
but while considered proportionately
higher than Scotch, prices have
shown greater frmness, moving up 10 AS 9dQ
12s lO1Sd. In Hematite warrants there is little
doing. and prices remain at about DIS 3D. Max
ers iron generally has been rather slow and
prices are barely steady. Prices for merchant
bar copper have receded a trifle in the face of
the fact that deliveries last month exceeded
the fresh supplies by S,5iS tons aud the present
nominal stocks, to say nothing OF the prospects
that supplies will be further reduced in July
by the heavy shipments yet TO be made of the
large quantity Of Anaconda matte sold some
little time ago.
Should French holders refrain from forcing
sales il is believed difficulty will be experienced
in finding sufficient copper to meet deliveries
on short sales that have been made by specu-
lators for forward delivery. There is only
small quantity afoat from Chilli. Sales here
have latterly been confined to stock of Ana
conda held on French account, some OF which
is TO be reshpped to the United states. Late
transactions In furnace material embrace $500
tons Anaconda matte at lis Cd; 500 tons ditto,
resale, at lis Cd; 200 tons Anaconda ar
gentiferous on private terms. Tin i'm
proved in price under the influence
of the vast amount awaiting shipment
TO the United States and statements that the
contemplated movement thence would take

scarcity has been averted, however, by more
recent movements. Stocks here will hardly
sllow any considerable reduction, as consump-
increasing.

For great many years THE GAZETTE
has been accustomed to the rawlings of an
alleged independent press, and has read
much of Democratic dissolution, throes,
"reminiscences, etc., etc., but the party
has lived, it still lives, and it Will live

/. If farmer voted the Democratic

Democratic primaries this year? If the
non-partisan business man did not vote
the Democratic ticket at the last cleo

Immigration.

Perhaps never in the history of Texas
has the subject of immigration been so
much agitated as it is being now. With
the opening up of the Panhandle by the
Fort Worth and Denver railroad came an
effort on the part of those most interested
to settle up and develop this vast terri
tory. Gradually the movement grew in
interest and spread to other sections until
now all Northwest, West and Southwest
Texas is becoming aroused in regard to
the matter and the possibilities are that
the next few years will witness an
inflow of population surprising anything
ever seen in any state on this continent.
Texas, with her vast area of yet unOc-
eupied, fertile lands has homes for mil
lions, and with our advantages of soil
and climate properly set before them,
hosts of dissatisfied people East and
North will turn in this direction. The
Spring Palace at Fort Worth last year
was but result of the desire to eneour-
age immigration, and beyond doubt it
has proven q wonderful success in that
line.
Now, however, much better plan is
being formulated and much more eff
feotive method adopted than even the
Spring Palace offers. The scheme now
beng perfected with headquarters at
Fort Worth offers the advantage that
every county and town along this line of
railroad may, at all times in the year,
have displayed at this headquarters their
products aud. advertising matter so that
prospectorS coming to Texas any time of
the year may find something to attract
them to the sections there represented.
The board of trade of Decatur are max
ing commemorate effort 10 get Wise
county organized In order that.
we, of this county, may get
our share of the benefits to be derived
from this source. Every town IN the
county should thoroughly organize and,
while we may all act together effectively,
each town should have its own local work
in addition. AlvoTd cannot longer delay
organizing. An opportunity for telling
work is now offered that If neglected
may never offer again. With very
little outlay our town can get up very
nice display of vegetables, fruit, corn,
wheat, etc. as well as lot of attractive
advertising matter and keep it constantly
before pTospectors. As matter fof
course when this immigration headquar-
tiers is established and opened up,
prospeetoTs from all parts of the country
will go there to flud an index, as it were,
to the country they want to live in, and
Alyord cannot afford to fail to be repre-
scented there,

FORT WORTH,S WAY.

The occasion of the visit to Fort Worth of the
capitalists of Boston and Chicago is to be made
an event of Importance to the whole state, as
the following telegraphic dispatch sent out yes
terday will show:
To the President of the Boards of Trade Of
Gainesville, Denison, Sherman, Paris, Green
vile, Dallas, Waco, Weatherford, Austin, San
Antonio, Houston, Galveston, Corpus Christi.
Abilene, Wichita Falls, Henrietta, Vernon,
Bowie, Decatur, Denton, Cleburne, Corsicana,
Temple, San Angelo, Texarkana;
DEAR SIR-special excursion trains filed with
prominent citizens and capitalists from Boston
and Chicago will arrive in Fort Worth on
Wednesday on a visit to the Spring Palace.
Your board and citizens of your city are cor
daily invited to be here and meet them and
make their acquaintance. B. B. PADDOCK,
President Texas Spring Palace.
That is Fort Worth's way. The Tex as
Spring Palace was intended to benefit all
Texas, and although it is the creation of
Fort Worth money and Fort Worth
energy, this city desires all the state to
come in and reap where Fort Worth has
sown. Visitors from a distance have
been and are here, and Fort Worth says
to East, South. West and Northwest
Texas; "Invite these strangers to visit
you and persuade the railroads to make
excursion rates from Fort Worth. -
Now, there are special excursions to the
Palace from Chicago and Boston, aud
Fort Worth says to all the boards of
trade of Texas: "Meet these men of
money, make their acquaintance
talk up your cities, parade your advan-
tages and do with these gentlemen all
you can to advertise your cities.
This is Fort Worth s way. Fort Worth
works for Texas and to draw people and
capital to Texas. The Spring Palace was
born of desire to attract attention to
Texas, and Fort Worth put its money
into the Palace to give expression to that
desire. Then come, gentlemen, meet
these visitors, and do all you can to adj
vertise your own cities.

Main and Houston.
The project which Col. Robert Mozart
is working upon to induce property own
ers on Main and Houston streets to cover
their holdings with substantial and
creditable business houses, is being
taken hold of with encour aging enthus-
iasm by the firms which have been
preached on the topic, and already about
a dozen signatures have been appended
to the doenment, whereby promise
is made thht within ninety days work
will be commenced on the construction
of store or office buildings. hr. Mozart
says that he expects TO get at least
twenty-five signatures before the end of
this week, and as most of the buildings
will have at least fifty foot front, many
of them more than that, the aggregate
of space on the main streets of the city
that will be built up can be esti-
mated. A spectacle of 1000
front foot in the radius of Il
mans vision being built, up with
substantial and ornate store buildings
is one that does not occur frequently in

lamb and the lion, the Clark and the
Lyons, might lie down together between
times, but how can they do so at meal
time, when both are hungry
5. If railroad corporations and indi-
viduals are one and the same thing, as
set forth in the ready-made platform or
the "Non-Partisan Business Mems

corporation was ever tried or hung or
imprisoned for murder?
6. If the Democratic party, in conven-

railroad commission amendment and
dominates Mr.. Hogg or some other COM
missionist for governor of Texas, will the
News support the platform and nominee?

Lyons, the recognized Republican leader
in Texas, to be its candidate; or will the
new party, the "purer formation" SO
to speak, nominate some pronounced cor

break up in row because POLITICAL oil

s. Is not this "Non- Partisan Business

in name and incongruity with the Marion
Martin politics OF which the News affects
to complain in behalf of Democracy?
8. If it is wrong, as THE GAZETTE oon-
tends it is, for alliances and knights
of Labor lodges as organizations to take
hand in politics, is it not equally wrong for
drummers' associations, partisan

to attempt to control or defeat Demo-
cratic action?

The Test.
Fort Worth Euaninr Mail

Fort Worth Evening Mail.
The interest among the printing fra
ternity of Texas having been keenly ex-
cited as to the workings of the Thorne
type setting machine, now IN use by the
Mail at the Palace grounds, we present a
summary of the results SO far demon
strated by this paper through actual ex-
perienee.
l. The machine IS easily handled and
does not get out of order. 1t is as simple
in construction as paper~eutter. The
Mail has never been delayed moment
on account of trouble with the machine.
9. The proof sheets received from the
machine are the best ever turned out in
Fort Worth within our knowledge. They
average less than ten errors to the galley,
the most of which are trans positions.
8. The saving in room for composition
is one half or more.
4. The distribution, which is auto
matte, is perfect. A letter cannot fall
elsewhere than in It's proper channel.
All printers know that the time consumed
by distribution is twenty-five per cent.
which is the saving effected through this
agency alone.
s. Two experienced operators, with q
boy to load the machine, have set for the
Mail at q rate of over 5000 ems per hour.
The limit to the speed is not IN the ma
chine, which is capable of 10 900 ems per
hour, but in the operators.
6. The net result of the experiment is
a saving Of sixty per cent. in the cost of
composition, under union scales, main
tanning the weekly wages OF the printers.

The Dallas Failure.
Alvord Budget.

A correspondent of the Dallas News
from Bowie eriticises the action of the
convention at that place last Monday,
and also sails into Wise county for the
stand taken by her delegates; and raises
a prolonged howl because Grafton cast
her vote for Fort Worth, and because
her delegate was not q resident of Graf
ton. Now, in all good faith, We can't
see why Dallas and her friends should
raise kick at this late date. If Dallas
and her supporters had no idea of
opposition on the part of Fort Worth,
and if they went TO Bowie sim
ply to close q contract with delegates
from her favorite towns, why did they
vote and participate in syery act of the
convention, and then after the vote was
taken and headquarters located at Fort
Worth, say we have been treated unfair
ly and we will have the headquarters
anyway, the majority to the contrary
Notwithstanding. The facts in the case
are simply these, Dallas wanted seme-
thing for nothing. She concluded that
the Panhandle country was worth work
ing for, that Is if they could get charge
OF affairs by simply asking and not
putting up little hard cash. So these
wise men laid their heads together and
decided to work .rabbit's fcotn on

BUILD HOUSES.

THE GAZETTE has uniformly urged
upon property holders here to build bus
mess houses-houses that will be attrac-
tive to wide-awake business men even If
year should elapse before they are
rented. There must always be places in
Whiting. 1t would be most unusual in
ducement that could tempt men ready to
go into business to wait until suitable
house was erected for their occupancy.
The building of neat, comfortable
houses, such as can be rented at reason
able prices, is an essential element in
the steady growth of a town. No N an
living in as growing a town as Fort
Worth can afford TO be a Shyloek. He
will find that public spirited liberal men
will crowd him to the wall; he who will
not sell nor improve his land will live to
appreciate that the world moves without
him. He can sit wrapped in his own i'm
perious selfishness. He can If he choose
keep acres of vacant lots, but towns have
way of getting away from such sur
roundings, and though like Crusoe he
may be monarch of all he surveys, like
him he will be left in solitude and find
that the world will care little for the man
who has climbed into his house and
pulled the ladder up after him. Yet for
time he can retard growth by his cold
ness and indifference. Strangers coming
into the town will by his ungraciousness
be inclined to seek other localities, and
were he type of the majority of the
towns people, progress would be slow
If not well nigh checked.
