THE CENSUS.

I
Capt. John Nevins, supervisor of the
United States census for this district,
was seen yesterday and states that every
thing about the enumeration in Fort
Worth is now in good shape. George
! Wray has been appointed to do the work
| in district sighty-two. vice Percy Bren-
| ner who is sick, Under the law Capt.
Nevins has extended the time on this
district, giving the enumerator all of
this week and four days in next week in
which to complete the work. There is
Misrepresentation in regard to the district
at first assigned to John Coleman. That
gentleman declined the position and A.
G. Shattuck was appointed and had his
work so well in hand that he completed
it last night.
In Mr.. MeMichael's DISTRICT which is
In the First Ward aud is very populous,
the enumeration is proceeding rapidly,
being already about half done. MIR.
MoMiohael is working early aud late and
will probably get through on time.
Capt. Nevins desires the people to IN
derstand that where they sleep, is their
place of abode, and they must be
enumerated in that district. Some BUSH
ness men who thought they were not
enumerated because not taken at their
offices or stores, are on the rolls. Capt.
Nevins says the enumerators are all I'M
der the most binding osths and
cannot divulge thesnumber of names en-
rolled by them, and therefore all the
talk about the enumeration in any city
or town having reached q certain figure
is bosh. No one knows the figures, not
even he himself. Capt. NeVins says the
population of his district and of the
cities and towns in it will probably be
known by September /. He expressed
the opinion that it was possible that the
Seventh ward might be counted in the
population of Fort Worth, especially as
it was actually within the corporate
limits. The census is being so taken
that this can be done
In this connection it will prove of in
terest to know what conservative men
estimate the population of Mr.. Nevins'
district to be. 1t is as follows:

REBUILD THE PALACE.

The people and the press of Texas

NEW BRoOMS SWEEP CLEAN.

The right thing for Democrats to do is to see
that their primaries are controlled by those who
are Democrats at heart, and that those only are
instructed for who ask for Democratic support.
Mr.. Finley's idea of the eligibility of partici-
pants in Democratic convention looks as
though it came of desire to see his friend made
governor. Let no class Of citizens, as such, be
admonished to go into conventions. Let the
admonition be to Democrats to go 10 their con-
ventions. Let all Democrats respond to the call.
and let them see that men do not come there
simply in obedience to the behest OF some secret
society or organization, and that for the purpose
of capturing conventions and reversing the
order OF their proceedings and making them
speak the reverse of what they were called for
and intended to speak III. c. MACK, in Dallas
News.

Mack having, not many years ago, made

ocracy could only emanate from one who
knows by experience what it is not to be

After considerable search man bsI
been found who lost money in Fort
| Worth real estate. 1t is common re-
mark that no one has ever lost penny
| in that way, but genuine case has at
last been dug up. In 1888, when things
were quiet and everyb body marked up
| their property peg or two because none
was selling, an educated German from
| the North landed in Fort Worth with the
avowed purpose of buying some property
to make some quick money. In those
| days the real estate men were not so
hurried and worried with business as
they are now, aud he was shown over
the city, with the result that he bought
some residence property on one Of our
best residence streets for $500, paying
part cash and the balance due one and
two years. The price at that time was
high, and it was thought by some that
Bismark' 3 subject had been rather over
reached.
Time rolled on with a circular sort Of
motion until just before the year pay
ment became due, when the brother Of
the original buyer, who had, in the
mean time, bought the property without
seeing it, came to this city to see his pur-
chase before paying the first note.
His disgust was supreme. He COM
paredNhe property to that in his own
SMOOTH finished and sleepy town, and
verify b was wroth, fQrshe "could buy
better property ct hoihs for Oue-third
the monSE," and refused to psy

amount thsF had paid in cash, rather
than put any good money into the
property. M

THE Daily American of Nashville
utters q double loaded cry against the
unsatisfactory progress being made by
the census enumerators in that city.
They are, it says, either insufficient in
number, too young or too old, and in
several ways lacking in fitness for their
work. Census taking in the South seems
to be rapidly degeneratiug into farce.
