Nothing to Take Back.

Notwithstanding the fact that Jay Gould has
departed from Texas, the papers are still busy
informing the public what he intends to do.
Your correspondent said few days ago that he
had decided to build a branch of the Interna-
tional and Great Northern from Palestine to
Terrell. This news did not meet with very
favorable reception here in Dallas, and the
papers of this city have since been insisting
that Mr.. Gould will come direct to Dallas from
Palestine, over the Trunk line, if he can get
control of it, and over independent line to be
built by himself, if he cannot. Inasmuch as
your correspondent got his information from a
member of the Gould party, and from one likely
to be correctly informed, there is reason to be-
heve that the road from Palestine to Ter
rell is the one that will be built. 1t may be
stated in passing, also, that equally good au-
thority can be given for the statement that Jay
Gould intends to build line of road from Mar
shall through the heart of the lumber region to
Sabine Pass.
ponds upon his securing control of that road.
If ne does not secure control, the building of
a new line from Palestine becomes necessity.
The distance is shorter between Palestine and
Terrell than between Palestine and Dallas, and
the country through which the road will pass
will give it better local traffic. From Terrell
ITO Galveston he will have nearly airline route,
with the use of the Texas and Pacific tracks from
this city to Terrell. He has studied all the adj
vantages the route offers, and when the dirt be-
gins to fly the people of both Terrell and Pales-
tine will realize that in making the first an
nouncement that the road between their two
cities would be built THE GAZETTE had a tip
from headquarters and spoke by the card.

the ''Shriners'' and the report of the Dallas

and the spirit in which it was written was both
