TEXAS JOURNALISM.

The Weatherford Constitution is going
to get out an illustrated edition before
the Dallas fair. The Coustition does not
intend to rest with what it has already
done. OF the extra it says: 1t will
bristle with facts concerning Weather
ford, so written that the busy people
who receive it can at glance, take in
at least a small idea of Weatherford 8
growing greatness.
The Corsicana Observer is one of the
Invest and trimest weeklies in the state
1t is model in appearance and fully
alive to what is moving in its horizon.
The Observer is more than dollar paper
if one may judge comparatively.
The Mexia Democrat has changed
hands, Mr.. Kennedy having sold out to
]. H. Hanson. Mr.. Hanson is not new
in the business, and the public is assured
by the former editor that the paper will
lose nothing of its accustomed merit
under the new management.
The Fayetts County Democrat is the
name of new paper in that section.
The headline is against the paper, for
one finds more IN its eight pages than he
is led to believe at first sight. Accord
ing to the prospectus it will be devoted
to the interests of the town OF LAGRANGE
and the county of Fayette in particular.
We will do all in our power to advance
the material interests of our people and
will strive to build up our section and
increase her wealth and prosperity. We
will advocate such measures as we deem
right and just and in acco rdanoe with
the spirit and genius of our government.

TEXAS CROPS AND WEATHER.

The crops IN Live Oak county are flour
| ishing. Cotton Is sure Of half bale Il
the acre, and is expected to make a fine
top crop.
In the vicinity around Alvsrado the
stock water is not plenty, though enough
has fallen for gardens.
Cotton in Bee county is beginning new
growth, and with the prospect for more
rain the farmers entertain considerable
| hope of top crop.
Cotton is promising exceedingly well
around Georgetown and rolling in rap
idly.
The gins are overcrowded with cotton
in Erath COUNTY, which is something I'M
usual to see at this early date.
AT Cranfn's Gap, Bosque county
crops are rather light. Cotton is being
rapidly gathered.
Thirty bushels to the acre is the aver
age crop of corn in Liberty county.
Thornton has had some fine rains
which are beneftting late cotton very
decidedly. The boil worm is reported
from some sections.
Crops in Angelina county have been
considerably damaged by the drouth ,
and the anticipated big crop will not be
made.
In Nacogdoches county there is some
complaint of cotton not doing well and
that ths plant is acting strange. The
crop Is not suffering for rain, as gen.
eral thing, but has not fruited well from
some cause or other in some localities.
The cotton crop in Navarro is turning
out better than was expected few days
ago,
Cotton in Pleasant Valley, Dallas
county, is opening faster than the farm
ers can gather it.

TERRELL, Sept. 5.-The ground is so
dry that great cracks are seen every
where on the raw prairie, and yet the
cotton is rolling in in large quantities.
Water is falling in many OF the stock
tanks, and many people are watering
their stock at the Terrell public foun-
tains. The corn crop is short. 1t was
reported this morning that corn had been
sold at sixty five cents per bushel, and
half dozen men were ready TO deny its
being SOLD so low.
HENRIETTA, Sept. 5.-Wheat is COM
ing in rapidly. The mills are taking in
large quantities and paying S1.05 per
bushel. Since the last big rain the farm
ers have commenced in earnest to put IN
crops. There Will be larger acreage of
wheat sown than ever before.
BIvINs, Sept. 4.-The dry weather
continues here. A light shower fell last
Sunday, but it is not moist enough to
SOW turnips. Cotton is opening very
fast and is being gathered. All kinds of
crops are short.

THE RAILROADS.
a Rival City Watching Fort Worth and
the Albuquerque Road.
an Important Deal In Leading Southern Rail
rOads-GpneraI And Local Railroad
News and Notes.

al was in Dallas yesterday, re-
marked a prominent business man to a
GAZETTE reporter, "and from all
could learn the agitation in Fort Worth
of the question of rushing the AIbu-
querque road through is causing the
crowd there u great deal of uneasiness.
1t had been regarded in Dallas by most
people who took any interest in railroad
matters that the Albuquerque scheme
was a dead duck-as dead as the Dallas,
Archer and Pacific is-and many there
were congratulating themselves over it.
When it developed, however, that there
was movement on foot that had some
prospect of resulting in the road being
built they began to worry.
81 can tell you one thing: Those fell
lows in Dallas are watching the progress
OF this road with fully as much inter-
est Us we are in Fort Worth.
They realize the fact that if Il is built
soon all hopes of ever having a road run
ming from Dallas 10 the Northwestern
territory are gone forever. They are
wide awake though, and if the present
movement here fails or hangs fire for
any great length OF time, there will be
al effort in Dallas TO reach the territory
the Fort Worth and Albuquerque would
tap. Fort Worth has the opportunity
now TO secure this road, and own it after
il is built, and it seems to me the oppor-
tuniJy should be taken advantage Of. 1t
won t do to dilly-dally about it either;
the thing must be worked up at once,
and for my part can t see why more of
the Old-time Fort Worth spirit is not
thrown in the enterprise. Somebody
should take the lead, and then the
ntners would follow -

IMPORTANT DEALS.

Three Changes IN the Control of Leading
Southern Railroads.
Some big railway deals have beer made
IN the South in the last week. The Cen
trail of Georgia and the East Tennessee
have bought up three railways. The
Central, it is understood, after consider
able negotiations, has secured the Chat
tauooga, Rome and Columbus railway
and the Covington and Macon. This en-
ables the Central to tap East Georgia
and gives it another road from Macon,
But more important than that, il has
secured line from Columbus to Chat
tauoogu through Rome. This makes two
more Georgia roads for the West Point
Terminal.
The most important deal, however, is
the one by which the East Tennessee,
also part of the West Point Terminal,
secured the Monon route, or the Louis
vile, New Albany and Chicago. 1t
gives the Terminal line into Louisville
over a popular road running into that
city, enabling il 20 tght its great rival,
the Louisville and Nashville, on its own
ground, and line into Chicago, max

The immense revenues of some of the
Western railroads from stock shipments
alone can hardly be comprehended by
the average shipper. OF late years the
stock raising business is becoming an i'm
pOrtent industry west of the Missouri
river. Advices from u. river points say
that since the opening OF the Sioux
reservation thousands of head of cattle
and sheep have been driven IN to be
fattened on the nutritious grasses of the
ranges. The stockmen IN the Black Hills
region will ship fully 80 900 head of cat
tie this season to the Eastern markets.
Allowing eighteen head to car, it will
take 1873 trains of fifteen cars each to
complete the work, or a total of 5000
cars. Estimating the rate at 500 per
cgr-and 1t will probably exceed that
amount-the Fremont, Elkhorn and Mis-
souri, Valley road, which will handle
most of this stock, will receive $500, 900
for the maui. Shipments will soon be-
gin.

Abilene and San Angelo are working
hard in the interest of proposed line of
road between the two points, which will
be, when built, most excellent feeder
for the Texas and Pacific, aud which
will take an immense volume of traffic
from the Santa Fe road in the Concho
country. This fact leads to the belief
that the Texas and Pacific is more than
friendly to the proposed new line and
that when it is complsted that it will be
operated by the Texas and Pacific COM
pany. There is no doubt that the coun-
try through which the Abilene and san
Angelo line will run is q most fertile one,
and it has always been looked upon as
Texas and Pacific territory; therefore it
is very reasonable TO believe that this
grea. corporation is not disinterested
party in this movement, to say the least
of IT.

TEXAS PROGRESS

The artesian well at Luling is down
about HOO feet. Water is expected at
the depth of 1900 feet.
TERRELL, Sept. 5.-The asylum arte-
sian well is going deeper, but the arte-
sian stream has not yet been struck.
The work is being fastened somewhat in
order to get water for full supply of
completed additions.
WACO, Sept. 5.-The sanitary commit
tee reported favorably the petition to the
council to construct a crematory for the
incarceration of garbage. The matter is
now in the hands of the public improve
ment committee. The committee rec
commended the acc eptance Of the Eugle
patent furnace, and it is probable such
will be put in. The present method of
disposing of the garbage of the city is to
dump it in the river just below town.
The finance committee IS report contained
a recommendation requiring the city as
SCISSOR TO assess real estate and personal
property separately, in order to ascertain
their proportion. The plan is TO keen
the entries in separate accounts.

that work continues. Terrell has been
ice hungry, the factory having been
crippled for day or so: but now the
cooling process is on again. The CON
sumption of water has nearly doubIed
this summer, and consequently an effort
will be made to increase the water sun-
ply. The question of a large artesIan
well Is being discussed in some quarters.
HENRIETTA, Sept. 1.-THE Henrietta
improvement company has reorganized.
and on the 18TH of this month the con-
tract will be let to put in waterworks
and an electric light plant and ice fac
tory. The plant will be located at the
Junction of the Fort Worth and Denver
