ABOUT FORT WORTH.

All merchants who have dealings with
farmers report collections exceedingly
good, and say the farmers are slow to as
sumo new liabilities, indicating that they
have the cash with which to buy what they
need. The farmers OF Tarrant county are
in many instances improving their places,
building new houses, barns, etc. Quite
number of wagons have been sold to farmers
by our merchants recently.
Conservative men estimate that within
the next seven months $40, 600, 600 cash Will
find its way into the hands of our farmers
and stockmen for wheat. cotton, cattle,
sheep and hogs. In addition to this will be
the money paid for oats, corn, fruit and
vegetables. In other words, between this
date and March, 1892. there will be SIS per
capita paid TO the people Of Texas for what
is produced in the state, and this is exclu-
sive of what will be paid for such manu-
featured articles as we may send out of the
state. Nor does it include our iron or
lumber. The fall of 1891 and spring OF 1922
promise to be unusually prosperous in the
Lone Star state.
The men interested in Texas real estate
are through the Texas Real Estate associa-
ton doing great work for the state, and
unless all signs fail they Will cause thou
sands of people to locate in Texas. Fort
Worth has contributed literally to this
work, and what the citizens have done has
been supplemented by the Fort Worth and
Rio Grande railroad company. The follow
ing letter received by Secretary Clarke Of
the chamber of commerce shows how the
work is being done.
VIRGINIA, ILL.,, Aug. 6, 1891
Gen F. NJ. Clarke:
We are on the ground and up to our eyes
in missionary work. Side track built to
this enormous fair and convention was
completed on our arrival We were vel
coined with bands of music and procession
of citizens simply immense. When the ex-
hibit cars We're opened three policemen
were required 10 keep the crowd in line.
EXtravagant expressions of admiration
about the Texas exhibit are heard on every
side. You have no idea how hungry for
Texas literature the people are-three men
busy handing it out, farmers standing in
line waiting for it. Governor HubbardS
speech to-day will be the event of the
weeks convention and fair. Already we
have received a number OF names who say
they are going to Texas. We are keeping
4 register for future use. Our route from
Texas here was an ovation from beginning

met us with large delegations and gave
write-ups in their papers. At Sedalia, Mo,
the mayor, city officials ana Missouri, Kan

Saving Wood.

attends well to his own business, that
che saws wood in his own door yard. !"
We read this frequently in the papers
about j. g. Blaine, and of others who
do not understand the business as
well as he does. But what ever we
may hear of celebrated statesmen,
or politicians saving wood, we have
at least one man in Morris, who. If he
don't just saw wood, he sells it in
the shape of lumber at as lively 4
rate as any politician could hustle for
votes.
It Is now mid-Winter and hs Is

Morris improvements For se2


Already are the contemplated i'm
provements for next year, in this
growing village, cropping out. The
capacity of the Morris brick yard
will be tested for Morris alone.

is that of Syverson & Thorsted,
who have purchased lot 5, block 2 on

AS soon as spring opens they will
put up two story brick store 25 by

prise for this Young and prosperous
firm; and proves that they have not
been wasting their time thus far.
We may confidently expect to see
some fine brick buildings erected on

liberty to give names yet. We will
be glad to record all improvements
as soon as possible.

In last weeks issue of THE Sun
we published the appeal Of Governor
Merriam for relief to the starving
Russians, rs the most eloquent lite
nature we could lay before -onr
readers. The American people can
have no sympathy with the Russian
government; either In its treatment
to the Jews, or its other subject, yet
we have some cause to remember the
kindness OF that government. 1t was
our warmest European friend during
the dark days OF the rebellion, and Ii
we read history correctly, the En-
porer of Russia was the man who
effected arbitration with England
during our war Of lSI2-l5. But how
ever we may feel toward the govern-
ment of Russia, the starving millions
have nothing to do with the govern
ment; they are our fellow men;
children of one common father.
They are starving: we have album
dance; they cry for help-the Ameri-
can people will obey their Great
Teacher,ssand feed the hungry.
What will Stevens county do? We
have talked with some of the liberal
men of the county and the conclusion
arrived at is, that this county can
send a carload of flour 200 bbls.)
IL. w. Stone & Co. will furnish 100
barrels of good -four for $500, and
give a liberal donation to the $500;
they will also take wheat at 80 cents
per bushel, toward their amount,
from farmers who have more wheat
than cash. Let Stevens county men
consider the advantages of such do
nation to themselves. Tn the first
place it would be discharging a
christian duty obligatory upon us.
In the second place, it would be
worth more to the comfy as an
advertisement than the whole sum.
just think of small sparsely popu.
lated county away ON the frontier,
contributing $500 pounds of flour to
the starving Russians. The fact
would spread through the whole
country.
Are there not one hundred men in
stevens county who will give So
each, or its equivalent in wheat! We
believe so; then let us move in the
matter at once.

Christmas Greeting.

"Merry Christmas to all" This is
the greeting that will ring out al
over the land tomorrow; and we
heartily greet the readers of THE Sun
in the popular phrase. Xmas day is
the day of days in the christian world
all other days have something earthly
about them: this is the day supernal
The Christ whose birth we celebrate
on this day, taught us some excellent
lessons; one of which was, to remem-
Der the poor. On tomorrow when
you are rejoicing in your happy
home blessed with health and plenty,
remember that there are many people
in Morris who will have no Turkey,
or even roast beef, unless some who
have more than enough will divide.
I'VE are fortunate in not having
many of this class in Morrisl and
they have lovely children with the
same desires as yours; will you not
hunt up some of these needy ones
and add to your own happiness by
contributing to theirs.
The stores of Morris locked for the
past few weeks as if Xmas was surely
coming; it was hard to get waited
on in some of them; the delivery
wagons have been kept on the run;
and the mysterious bundles under
shalls and in baskets. would indicate
that Santa Claus means business this
time at any rate. And so it ought
to be, for this county of Stevens was
never. before so prosperous as it is in
this year 1891. We have every reason
in the world to rejoice and be glad.
But we repeat. remember those who
are sad; and if everybody makes mp
their minds to make it glad day,
there will Ee little sadness felt.
