A Paper MN.

Mr.. G. W. Post stated yesterday that
he would investigate paper mill while
in the Eastern states this summer. If
the plant now being considered was not
suitable another would be looked up.
ssWe want paper mill in the Industrial
addition on Alamosa Heights and 1 feel
safe IN saying I will have one in
my inside pocket when I come
home this fall to offer Fort Worth.
Your boys in THE GAZETTE building
want to begin to sack your clippings and

HBaok East the frugal housewife lets
the boys have the 'psper-ragsi to sell
during the year for Fourth Of July and
Christmas money, but in Texas, IN Fort
Worth alone, several thousand dollars
worth of paper making material is
burned each year, because there is no
industry to transform it into that article
of daily and hourly use which
We send hundreds of miles
for, and take Fort Worth
money to pay for. Money sent into an

bring the machinery here, pay our peo-
pie money for that which they now burn
up, pay another lot Of our people to use
this machinery aud turn out paper, sell
this paper to Fort Worth people, for Fort
Worth money and repeat the operation?

SPIGoT AND BUNq.


II the press reports are to be credited, ,
President Harrison Is veto of the Dallas
public building bill is the first Of series
of similar messages. He seems all at
once to have determined 10 save at the
spigot in order that there may be q more
profuse waste at the bung. He exhibits
alarm lest by liberal appropriation for
public buildings there will not be left
enough money In the treasury to satisfy
the pension hooters, the subsidy grabbers
and tho coast-defense robbers.
Another reason, not apparens on the
face Of his veto, may be given for his
professed solicitude lest the public reve-
nues be unduly wasted in the construo-
ton Of pubic buildings not actually
needed for the transaction OF public bust
ness. This is to be found in the fact that
most of the bills. either pending or
awaiting his signature, call for appropri-
ations to be expended in Democratic dis
trlcts or In Democratic states. 1t is pen

those asking for public buildings in Re-
publican districts and for vetoing those
calling for appropriations to be expended
in Democratic districts.
1t VIII not, however, be SO easy Cor
him to carry this purpose INTO execution.

eyes, said gentleman around

the residences that car be built in Fort

takers for all the houses that money can

sooner. This seems strange to me, too,
when I consider the number Of
houses just built or now
under construction. have in
my mind right now whole grist of them.
There are the Chase residence, $50 900;
