IF the CAT wishes County Clerk
Smith to edit that paper it should
offer hun salary Free Press.
No, Brother Borden, you need have
no fear that because two of The Colby
papers are edited by democrats, the
third will be. AS to the salary, we
might be able to hire an editor if we
were able to collect certain advertis-
ing bills due us for several months
past. Under the circumstances you
should say nothing regarding that
which would increase our expenses.

"Never Lets Up."

Ira E. McMillion, the lightning Southern Arkansas traveller of the old reliable firm of Wolf X Brother. is in the city circulating among his many friends, after an extraordinary big years business, feeling as happy as lark. and in the best of spirits. He predicts a large increase of trade in his section for the coming year. Mac is one of the boys that never ''lets up,' as MT. Ike Wolf said yes terdav by way of a compliment, He has been connected with the whole sale house above mentioned for the past eight years, anl has renewed his contract for another year. His grip will again be packed for 1890, and many q Southern Arkansas mer- chants heart be made glad to well come him and his samples in the new year near at hand. Mir. McMillion 8 sales last year aggregated Sl0O, ,O00, his collections are in, and no trans action of his has been loss to the firm. He goes to Prescott, his home, to-day, to prepare for next year. s business Arkansas Gazette, Dec. 2S, 1889.
 The above high compliment from the Gazette and Mir. Ike Wolf, to our fellow citizen, is but giving to worth and merit its due. Few men on the road have more friends or sells more goods than Mir. McMillion.

Owl Club Ball.

Some of our enterprising young men. among them Messrs. M. NJ. Spears, Jno. II. Arnold and 0. E. Gordon, assisted by Mir, w. II. Ter " and wife, J. E. Portis and wife, and J. N. Ferguson, and number of young ladies of the Owl Club, got up grand ball and supper on the night of the 27th, in the new Waller building, just completed. Fine music by string band from Texar- kama. Quite a number of yonng la dies and gentlemen from Hope and other places, present. The supper, prepared by Mrs. Matt White, was all that could be desired. The ball and supper was big success every way, and reflected credit upon the members of the Owl Club, who ar ranged it.

Camp Hunt and Fish.

Accompanied by Messrs. II. T. h. gram and son Ava, E. F. Baker, O. l.. Moncrief and J. C. Byrd, the edi- tor enjoyed camp hunt and fish, in the Little Missouri river bottoms, and on Blue lake, near Mir. John Hays, last week. Squirrels were plentiful, and easily found still hunt ing; forty fine ones were bagged, and the way we ate them, fried stewed and smothercd, twas a eau tion." Otis Moncrief was chief cook, with an able assistant in Mir Baker. The first regular meal in camps, our party of six easily made way with ten squirrels. MT. Byrd k the boss" thoroughly understands the piscatorial art. With his aid and counsel caught some fine iish-trout, white perch and blue cat. Mir. Baker hooked and captured very fine lb. trout in the lake, with troll; the editor had an exciting experience in playing a , lb. blue cat, and finally landed him from the river. Mr. Byrd cap tured most of the white perch. Ours was indeed jolly, good crowd. We might tell some fine jokes-how all were piled up in the tent--some aris- ing before day looking for hats, etc. but forbear. All enjoyed to the full our two days stay in the woods. Long will be remembered the part we took therein--our half days ram ble through the dense woods, and at times when squirrels were not occu- pying our attention, we unused on our beauteous surroundings-nature unadorned, and natures God, awed us into very reverence, and at last we were made to feel still more our littleness and dependence, when we came near being lost in the trackless forests, miles and miles from any habitation.
 While out we noticed the effects of the recent warm weather. in the swelling buds, and blooms on some forest trees; saw plum trees in full bloom, and with our own hands gath cred bunch of wild violets, in the open woods near Blue lake.

Sunday School Entertainm ents.

The entertainments given by the different Sunday schools of Prescott, on Christmas eve, for the benefit of the children, were all very nice af- fairs. At the c.

McGUFFEY ENDORSED.
Read the Following Endorsements of Some of Prescott's Lead.
 ing Ministers:

l have for many years been well acquainted with the McGuffey's s series of readers. The selections are from the best of our standard authors and of the highest literary merit. The moral tone is of the highest Christian standard. For literary merit, moral worth, and practical adaptation to the school room, Me Guffey's series has no superior.

JNp. h. SASbN, Pastor NJ. F.. church. Prescott. Dec. 26, 1889.

Having had some experience in the school room, speak from that ex- perience in saying that l regard Me Guffey's revised readers are the best readers extant, to my knowledge, for use in the public schools. have examined Appleton the Standard, McGuffey and others. On account of the superior moral tone and other advantages, l would prefer teaching or have my children taught Me Guffey's. GRANVILLE JONES,
 Pastor Christian church.
Nevada County picayune., 1890-01-01

To the School Board of Prescott, and to all whom it may concern: have in my possession full set each of the Standard and the Me- Guffey readers. Having carefully examined them on their merits with out partiality, 1 unhesitatingly say that l consider the McGuffey read CTS far superior to the Standard in many respects, and l would prefer them used by my children now in school. Respectfully,

To all whom it may concern:
 From an examination made in ref erence to the comparative value, from a religious and moral standpoint, ex- isting between McGuffey's and the Standard Readers, am convinced of the superiority of the McGuffey. While in the McGuffey series there are some fine selections on Christian Moralitv," in the Standard series such selections seem to have been studiousIy avoided.
Fort Worth daily gazette. (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1890-06-28

and the following morning Chicago was
reached; only a few hours was spent
here, and after another railway journey
OF some thirty hours the party reached
Boston, having completed one Of the
most delightful trips of the kind ever
gotten up, and with enthusiastic ac-
counts of Fort Worth people, Fort Worth
hospitality aud Fort Worth pluck, vim
and energy.
The members of the party feel es-
pecially indebted to the Wagner palace
car company, and more directly to its
efficient agent, Mr.. Burns, for the mag
nifcent coaches which were used on the
trip. Neither should Mr.. Davidson be
forgotten, whose gentlemauly services as
conductor were so invaluable on every
occasion.
1t is the intention of Fort Worth peo-
pie to organize large excursion in the
fall TO visit this section of the country,
and if all goes well there is no doubt but
that the trip will result as advantage
ously to that city as has the one just
flushed in proportion to the increased
number of exoursionists.
Fort Worth daily gazette. (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1890-06-28
growing demands of this rich and fertile
BANKING BUSINESS.

BANNING BUSINESS.
Fort Worth can boast of seven national
banks representing q combined capital of
So, 600 600. The bank clearances have
increased in such remarkable manner
! during the past year as to attract gen.
| eral attention in commercial circles >,
The clearings from January l to April
| 20, 1889, we're Sic 1898, 3.S1, and for
| the corresponding period of the present
| year (lS90) $50, 767 ,032. AZ. This GER
tainly is a magnificent showing, and one
which can be equaled by very few cities.
The clearings for the entire year of 1889
showed an increase of So per cent. over
those of the preceding year, and it is
not unlikely that this year will show an
increase of even as high as $50 per cent.
| over 1889 The individual deposits
amount to 81 500 900.
In proportion TO its population Fort
Worth does more business through its
banks than many an older and larger
city.
NOTABLE BUILDINGS.
There can be no better evidence of the
substantial prosperity of Fort Worth
than the character of the commercial
buildings now being erected there. One
of the latest additions to the ARCHITECT
tural beauty of tbs city is the Hurley
office building, the finest of its kind
south of st. Louis. 1t occupies the most
valuable piece of land in the business
portion, and when finished will be eight
stories high. Milsap sandstone is being
used in its construction; the corridors
will be tiled, and the stairways will be
of wrought-iron and marble. The build
ing will be lighted by both gas and cleo
tricity, and an improved Hale passenger
elevator will be put in. The cost of the
building, exclusive of the land, VIII be
S125 900.
The board of trade building lately COM
pleted, is one of the handsomest struct-
ures IN the city. 1t is built principally
of brick with terra Gotta trimmings, and
is crowned on one corner with a square
tower. In this building is the postoffice,
which occupies the entire first floor, the
second being used by that body of men
from whom the building takes its name,
while the rest of it is given up to offices.
1t cost 500, 900.
Another structure to which the people
point with pride is the natitorium, built
AT a cost of $50, 900. Here may be found
all the convenienoes for Russian, Turk
ish OF vapor baths. There are about
forty private bath rooms, and large
swimming pool 60xl00 feet, The upper
part of the building is let to gentlemen
for lodging purposes. These rooms
are all very comfortably furnished and
the building is heated throughout by
steam. All of the apartments are occu-
pied and the building is proving a paying
venture to its owners.

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS.
Arlington Heights, about a mile and a
halt to the west of the city, and separ-
ated from it by beautiful natural park
might well be called the aristocratic
section of the city. From the Heights a
magnificent view may be had of the
broad and fertile valley of the west fork
of Trinity river, stretching out for many
miles and covered with fine woods and
farming lands.
Arlington Heights is connected with
the heart of the city by rapid transit
line through the Arlington boulevard =,
which is the connecting link between the
two sections. The boulevard is three and
half miles long, l25 feet wide and is
planted with four rows of shade trees.
With rapid transit to the Heart of the
city, and the improvements that are now
being pushed to complexion, such as
graded streets, waterworks, electric
lights and q complete system of sewer
age, II is foregone conclusion that this
section will become the futurs residence
of the best class of citizens, The most
artistic and most expensive dwellings to
be found anywhere around Fort Worth
are springing up in this location. A
large power house has just been finished,
and contract has been signed for q
large winter hotel to be erected within q
few months.
The park mentioned above, as lying
between the Heights and the city, covers
137 acres of land, the greater part of
which was the gift of one generous citi-
zen. During the next few months a
large sum of money will be spent upon
it in the way of improvement, and it
will then be formally put in the hands OF
park commission. a beautiful CIRCULAR
drive of three and one-half miles is one
of the features of this place, and the
presence of the Clear Fork river winding
in and out amongst the flower covered
hills and verdant dales lends an addi-
tional charm to this already delightful
pleasure ground.
MANUFACTURES AND INDUSTRIES.
1t might almost be safely said that all
kinds of manufacturing are carried on in
this city-or at least, such as are peculiar
to the South. In 1880 the number of
merchants doing business in Fort Worth,
that is, trading and buying goods, did
not exceed 200, whereas at the present
time no less than 5000 country merchants
depend solely on this market for their
goods. The total jobbing trade of the
city ten years ago was merely nominal,
and was confined to q few agricultural
implements. Last year the wholesale
trade of this city was fully SIS, ZOO, 900.
In 1880 Fort Worth had no factory of
any kind, while now there are more
than sixty manufacturing Industries,
