RlvETING THE BANDS
THAT BIND THE cATTLEMEN TO
THE CATTLE CENTER.
A Proposition to Establish the Permanent
Headquarters OF the Northwest Texas
cattlemsn at Fort Worth Made.

While Fort Worth is the permanent con-
vention headquarters of the Northwest
Texas cattle raisers' association, the work
ing headquarters of the association IS at
Gertrude, Jack county, the home of J. C.
Loving, the secretary. The business OF the
protective and detective branch of the as
sociation is very large and calls eattemen
from all parts Of the state 10 that point
This IS felt by them TO be somewhat OF
hardship, as Gertrude is far OF railroad,
aud travel to and from that place IS done at
great disadvantage. They have deter
mined, therefore, to make an effort to nave
the headquarters removed to Fort Wortn
AT the last convention resolution LOOK
ing 10 this removal was made, but Mr.
Loving objected and told the cattlemen that
they would have TO elect another secretary
in that case, for it would cost him more TO
live in Fort Worth than in Gertrude and he
could not afford it. This killed the matter
as Mr.. Loving had given such satisfaction
in his management that his services coula
not be parted with, and the cattlemen mace
up their. minds that rather than let MN re-
sign they would continue to undergo the IN
conveniences of journey to Gertrude
when business called them there.
Now it is proposed to meet this objection
of the secretary by increasing his salary,
so as to equaliZe the cost OF living IN Fort
Worth and Gertrude. This will very likely
be done at the coming convention. and the
result will be to establish the permanent
headquarters of the Northwest Texas
Cattlemen's convention in Fort Worth.
This will bring a great many cattlemen
and others having business wig the pro
tectiye and detective ASSOCIATION to TINS
city and still closer connegc the bands that
bind the cattlemeAto 10 great cattle center
of the state.

Across Mexico by Rail.

The Jalisco Pacific Railway company,
which was recently organized in Mexi-
co with a capital of $40, 900 to build
the extension of the Manzanillo and
Colima railway from the latter point to
Guadalajara, will continue the line to
two points ON the Mexican National
railway. The portion of the line now
in operation, which is owned by the
Mexican National Construction COM
pany, has proved eminently successful.
The distance from Manzanillo to Guada-
lajara is 225 miles, and there are already
SO miles of railroad in operation, leav-
ing 166 miles to be built. Guadalajara,
with a population of about $4,000, was
formerly one Of the most prosperous
trade centers of the republic, and the
best informed business men of the city
believe that the completion of the rail-
way TO the Pacific ocean will restore its
old time commercial importance. With
the completion Of the Jalisco-Pacifc to
Guadalajara, it will be possible to cross
Mexico by rail from ocean to ocean,
starting either from Tampico or Vera
Cruz.

out, burning intense. There was no
reciprocity. The treaty had not been
negotiated. Free trade was not in
force. Protection's shield was thrown
around the heart to which his love
sought entrance.
I" He went he card not whether, mad he
was,
The cruel God so tortured him alas"
No jest could exhilarate his sad mind
no joys comfort his wounded, distressed
soul. He said:
" Would l were dead, for nought God
knows
But death can rid me OF these woes"
Repeatedly his spirits revived. Re
peatedly he called upon the one dear
being to him on earth. But all was
naught. To his home he went. Home
had no charms. Sleep refused to lend
its solace to his weary mind. Mid
night came. One o'clock came. His
heart grew weary. He said:
Lulu alone can quench my desire
With neither ice nor snow, but with
like fire."
He arose and went, in this dead hour
of night, to again visit the one and only
one with whom his happiness rested
and sighed aloud at the mansion. But
all in vain. She
" Is no more moved with those sad signs
and tears
OF her sweetheart than raging sea with
prayers.
Thou scorns't the faiIest youth In all
our city
And makest him almost mad for love to
die"
Still Antoine loves the fair lady. He
goes before Laws tribune and so de-
clares. He says he must marry her.
Only distance can keep him from her.
Legal learning and medical knOwl-
edge are baffled. Only love can reach
his malady. Thus he fingers. Hope
never dies. What is to be the doom OF
the lover?

a LOVESICR YOUTH

The atmosphere of New Whatcom is
conducive to love.
For twenty-eight years Antoine Nell
son, a noble youth Of Scandinavia, had
rested in peace, with his affections de-
votedly centered upon the mother of
his childhood. Sweet sleep, good
health and contentment in life were
his.
On the 9Th day of July he went into
the postofflce. Gods finger pointed.
Antoine beheld the object of all objects
his hearts love. He said:
st shall not grieve me to the snowy hills,
Or frozen Pinduss tops forthwith to climb,
Or run through fire or through an army,
Say but the word. for am always thine s.
He went home and he slept. A voice
seemed to say:
mo tongue can her projections tell
In whose each part all tongues may
dwell"
He awakened and rose up. The sun
never shown in such splendor. The
breezes of the bay were never so refresh.
ing. The white clover never before SC
sweetened the air. He burst forth with
the declaration:
I'm never rest or cease my suit
Till she or death do make me mute"
He floated in sweet anticipation, like
the ripple ON the water, never dream.
ing that
''The nearer he unto his mistress is,
The nearer he unto his ruin is.'
His love was so intense nothing could
come between him and the object Of
his love to quench the unsuitable fire,
AS well bid a deaf man hear, blind
man see, dumb speak, lame run as
bid him not love.
"Physic can soon cure every disease
Excepting love, that can It not appease. -
Days past, a month came and was
gone. Hope had kept him above de
spair. He had looked, but looked In
vain for the form that delighted the
eye, the beng that satisfied the long
ings Of his heart. As destiny placed
Joseph in Egypt, so its decree brought
Antoine into the parlor Of the home
that sheltered her whose spirit seemed
to him as II divine. Hope built high.
Heavens joy seemed In reach. But
only Jacobs ladder reached to Heaven.
without il the helping hand must be
reached down for one to attain the
Elysian field. Antone's love reached

neutral blue eyes and is a native of
New York, where he was born Aug. 8,
1919. When in congress quarter of
century ago he was a vine grower and
advocate of winemaking, but he has
changed all that since. and now not a
grape dare sprout on his magnificent
California ranch.
He has taught school, was Pacific
coast pioneer and served in the Mexican
war and the California militia during
the civil struggle. He has been miner
and farmer, has affiliated with Repub-
hcans and Democrats, has been men,
Der of the state and national Legislatures,
and now, although more than threescore
and ten, doesn't look more than fifty
years of age. His neighbors like him,
and in every respect he is vigorous old
man.
Among the vice presidential candi-
dates Whitelaw Reid is known of all
men. He was born Oct. 81, 1887, at
Xenia, O., was graduated from college
in his teens and took to teaching. When
twenty years of age he went into the
newspaper business, and as reporter, war
correspondent and editor of the New
York Tribune has been in journalism
ever since. His principal personal serv-
ice in politics has been as minister to
France. He is tall, thin and of distin-
guished appearance and is Presby-
terrain.
Not so very long ago his hair, mus
tache and little chin tuft were raven
black. Now they are tinged with gray.
By his own energy he amassed mod
est fortune, and the lady whom he mar
ried is also wealthy. He is reputed to
have the finest stock of wines in Ameri-
ca, and it is no uncommon thing for him
to serve dozen rare vintages at din
ner. Personally he is very abstemious.
His New York and country homes are
magnificent. Save during the Greeley
campaign he has been consistent Re
publican. He wears a No. 10 standing
collar, No. shoe and is very quiet in
his style of attire.
Cleveland's running mate, Adlai E.
Stevenson, is a native of Kentucky, be-

There is one process that may be set
down as little harder than drawing
blood from turnip. It is for woman
to get the alimony the court DEGREES her
when 1t gives her a divorce from her
husband. There are as many ways Of
avoiding payment Of alimony as there
are of getting out Of paying taxes. So
manifest has this fact become that a
learned judge lately gave it as his opin-
ion that unless the husband is a rich
man with reputation to maintain, the
practice Of awarding alimony should be
discontinued. 1t is hard and growing
harder for the average John Doe to un-
derstand why he should support wom-
an who is no longer his wife, especially
when, as is often the case, he failed to
do 1t when she was his wife.

Plymouth Rock Astonished.

No doubt the Puritan's landing place at
Plymouth on the stern and rockbound
coast of Massachusetts would utter
strange things if tcould talk. For here,
at the very spot where the Pilgrim Faith
ers set foot on shore from the Mayfiower,
Felix Adler's School of Applied Ethics is
in session at this time. The school was
founded by some excellent people, who
think that you can teach morality on a
common ground on which members of
all religious denominations can unite,
from Presbyterian to Jew and Roman
Catholic. The old Pills would have
whipped around town at the tail of a
cart anybody who promulgated such
atrocious sentiments.
After all, though, it is not likely that
the world will this summer be turned
over by the School of Applied Ethics,
however astonished the Pilgrim Fathers
would have been. The subjects chosen
for the papers will not apparently startle
the mass of mankind one single hour
from their money grubbing and selfish
