a COMMUNITY OF INTEREST.

Three hundred and fifty miles north
west OF Fort Worth, along the Fort
| Worth and Denver railroad and in the
back counties that look to it for con-
| nection with the further world, the
| wheat fields Of the Panhandle are
waving 10 the breeze and CHANGING in
the sunlight. For three hundred miles
or more, westward along the Texas
and Pacific, the wealth of focks and
herds bears testimony to the prosperity
Of the people. To the southwest, fol-
lowing up the Fort Worth and Rio
Grande railroad, for $50 miles, the cot
ton, wheat and oat lands admit hardly
an equal in their fertility and the
bounty that they yield to the industri-
south, east and north, for long reaches
Of distance, the older settled counties
of the state send up their notes Of pros
perity as betokened by larger acreage
put to cotton and corn, all giving prom
ise OF an overlooking harvest.
This is the territory that stands in
the closest commercial relation with
Fort Worth. Its crops are marketed
through this city, and great part of
the money they bring returns eastward
through the agency of our tradesmen.
To this country-to the west, the
northwest and the southwestern
Worth looks for its future greatness.
Here is larger area than is tributary
to st. Louis, and richer soil, capable
Of supporting as dense population,
and in the range OF agricultural posi-
bilities, more profitable. The settle
ment OF these millions Of acres with
people who will extract from them
the stores o. wealth that the
Creator has hidden beneath the sur
face, is the task that now engages the
thought and the effort of this city.
Looking steadily to this end, Fort
Worth, first of all Texas cities and all
Texas agencies, has called the intelli-
gence and progressiveness Of Texas to-
gether to take such action as will give
the state its proper position before the
world at the Columbian exposition.
Fort Worth wants the unoccupied lands
to be titled and prepared for adding to
the wealth of the people by bringing
the money OF the East TO our producers.
To advertise this wide domain, to make
known its riches, and TO turn in this
direction the overflow OF the surplus
population of the older states, is the
end OF our efforts. Fort Worth expects
to profit by the work now doing, for
when the West is populous, and she its
mistress, the prosperity to come will be
mutually shared between the country
and the city. Two million people in
West Texas will make Fort Worth a
city of 100000. And that is what We are
after, and we are willing to work for it
by working for Texas.

travellers.
To-day was the day for paying the Sac
and Fox tribe OF Indians their annuities,
which amounts to S1s00o0. 1t was thought
that the greater portion would come down
by express Saturday. The highwaymen
had no doubt reasoned thus and knowing that
any move to be made must be made after
the express train left the Kansas line and
before it entered the thickly settled portion
of Oklahoma, they wisely made Wharton,
in the Cherokee strip, their seat of opera
tons and had the amount Of money alluded
to before been on the Saturday nights ex-
press, the robbers would have taken 1t.
As it was, they secured between 500 and
$1,000 for which the Santa F'e and
Wells Fargo have offered . reward OF
$500 and $500 respectively, thus swelling
the amount offered for the Daltons dead or
alive not far from Sl1 600 Several de-
tectives arrived here to-day and

Texas is unknown. knowledge of
Texas is wealth untold to Texas.
Shall Texas make itself known?
What is wanted is a plan. Adver-
Using costs money. An exhibit of the
state at Chicago will costmoney. How
can the money be raised? That is the
question before the convention. Reso-
lutions, glowing descriptions, will not
avail. a plan is wanted-a plan to
raise the money needed to provide an
exhibit of Texas at Chicago-a plan
practical, popular and comprehensive
a plan that will insure state repre-
sentation. The man who devises that
plan viii be public benefactor; with
out such plan the convention will be a
failure, and Texas, if represented at
all before the millions at Chicago, will
be exhibited in spots too small to at
tract attention.

The Dallas News cannot be accused
Of any great partially for Fort Worth,
and, therefore, that papers report OF
the bank clearings of the two cities for
the week ending May cannot be sus-
pected of ha:ing been cooked in the
interest of Fort Worth. The report of
the News is as follows:
Dallas, 1,So46 So; increase, 24.s per cent.
Fort Worth, 81, 429, PIG; increase, 69.l per
cent.
The rate OF increase tells the whole
story of future commercial supremacy.
Fort Worth's trade grows because Fort
Worth's territory grows. Here is Fort
Worth-there is West Texas, with its
rapid development.
Fort Worth is the coming great city
of Texas.

New YORK, May 1.-THE committee OF
the New York presbytery, appointed to
consider the alleged heresy in the address
of Rev. DR.. Charles \. Briggs before the
Union theological seminary on January 20
last, submitted their report before the
meeting of the presbytery in the Scottish
church this afternoon. The majority report
openly accused Briggs of heresy and radical
divergence from the belief in the church as
stated in the confession of faith. 1t was
signed by Rev. DR.. c. W. F. Birch. the Rev.
DIR. Jesse T. Forbes, Rev. DR.. Joseph j.
Tampe and Professor John J. Stevenson.
The minority report was presented solely
by Rev. DIR. J. II. NIcIliyein of the Church
of the Covenant. Walter Edwards, the
lawyer who was also on the committee, de-
clined to sign either report. He agrees
