WORLDS EAR.

One of the finest articles we
have seen on the worlds fair
to be held in st. Louis, comes
from the pen of Howard Elliott,
Gen. Man, of the Burlington
Route. He treats his subject
as he does his road, from Il
business stand point, with Just
enough patriotism thrown in
to give it pink tinge. He
shows what the development
of the valley and it's cities have
been and the stimulating effect
that it will have not only on
the commerce Of the Future
Great but also on the agrIcultu-
raj interests Of the entire val
ley. Of course the DEMOCRAT
believes in the fair and is salts
fled that it will prove to be the
greatest in the history of the
world because the greatest
State and people on earth are
behind the movement. The idea
had its conception in this office
and this paper was the first to
suggest 1893 with all that has
followed it.

NOS,

The BURLINGTON'S NO. 5,
which leaves st. Louis at .: 05
p. NJ, makes Il very desirable
fast afternoon train from st.
Louis for people in Missouri.
One of the important things
that influenced the Burlington
people to put on The Nebraska,
Colorado Express" which leaves
st. Louis . 05 p. NJ, is the fact
that it would be a splendid fast
daylight train for the benefit of
Missouri people living along the
line of the Hannibal & st.
Joseph road. Our people can
now reach st. Louis at Z: 90
p. II. instead of s; 90 p. NJ, do
their business, the next morning,
and get back home the next
evening.

Gold always goes where it is
most wanted, that is where
people will give the most for it,.
The decision about to be rem
dered by the British Indian
Monetary Commission to con-
tinue India upon Il gold stan
dard neceSsitates the sending of
an enormous sum to that Coun,
try to be kept there to be OK
changed for rupees when de-
manded, if the rupee is to be
maintained at 4 gold valuation
of one shilling and four pence.
The Indian demand for geld
alone. if the policy outlined be
adhered to, will cause every
ounce of gold in existence to
double in value within the next
twenty years. But the Indian
demand is only part of the
new demand that is made upon
that metal, Japan is Oh the
market; also Russia. The de.
mand from these two sources
has already reduced the re.
serves in the great European
banks and is now being felt in
this country in the resumption
of gold exports. National

Saturday we took peep at
!. NJ. Proctors herd of REGISTERED
Herefords. There were thirty
two faultless COWS in one bunch
with thirty.four beautiful calves
by Their side. The Proctor herd
in Monroe and the Wood herd
in Rails county cannot be sur
passed any where. There is
only one trouble with our fancy
stock people in this section of
the country and that is, they
look upon their registered herds
as a matter of course. so unless
you stumble onto them you
hardly ever hear of them.

ANGRY WATERS.

The suffering caused by the
torrents plunging down the
Brazos valley is much larger
than the first estimates allowed.
There is Il strip of country 15O
miles long and from 3 to 8 miles
wide that was swept clean of
improvements, stock and the
people were driven out. All
bridges were swept away. The
loss of life is placed at 125 and
value of property at s., 250, 00O.
Euen the streets of east Waco
were under from two and one
half feet of water to six feet.
1t is stated by those in position
to know, there will be no second
crop in the valley and that the
losses are irreparable for this
season ut least.

Gen. WALLsCE's WARNING.

| Gen. WALL JE'S WAtiNiINO.
AS coming from stalwart
Republican of wide popularity,
the warning given President
Mckinley that the people will
hold him responsible for the re-
cent great growth of the trusts
ought to give the President
some concern.
Gen. Wallace says; The
public will lrold the President
responsible for the negligence
and Indifference Of his Attorney
General"
1t is true that many trusts
were in existence a. thc time of
President rMcKinley's Inaugural
ton. But the great trust move
ment. which the New York JOur.
nal of Commerce says lis the
most stupendous revolution ever
accomplished in the history Of
the worlds industrial growth"
has practically been accom-
plished during the Nc Kinley
administration, and it has taken
place without che President or
his Acknowledgement lifting i
finger to prevent or control it.
The Journal OF Commerce
says that this revolution lis
now Il fixed fact. 1t places
nearly our entire Industrial
system upon the monopolistic
basis. Industry at large is or
gained into system of feudal.
lied corporal ions, each of which
enjoys absolute power within
its special branch of product
ion, while taken in the aggre-
gate the system constitutes
itself the supremest trade pow
er in the nation"
If it were true that his Attor-
ney General is powerless under
such a Condition, is not the sit
uation important enough for Il
President to do something to
show that he realizes the dan
ger? Would not special mes
sage to Congress, or at least in.
structions to the Attorney-Gen-
eral to test the law to it's ut
most, have been a natural
course for President Mckinley?
But he has done absolutely
lothing. And Il great reyolu-
ion has progressed to it's Climax
lnder his eyes. What must the
people think Of such an Ad-
ninistration?
