Waxahachie, and the people Of the
city who know him confidently ex-
pect to see some of the prettiest
horses and vehicles that can be OBJ

INTEREST IS INCREASING
Proposition to Establish Inter
Urban Lines Is Creating
Discussion

Recently AlF. VI r. r. n. afNAa am
general manager Of the Union Trac-
ton Company, of Cleveland, Ohio,
visited this city and had q confer
ence with the business men, with "a
view to establishing an interurban
railway line through Ellis county,
the line to be part Of the line run
from Sherman TO Austin. At the
meeting held here TO discuss the
matter with Mr.. Farnham an exec
utive committee, composed of bus
mess men and farmers was appoint
ed 10 make further investigation of
the proposition as submitted by Mr..
Farnham.
The proposition as submitted by
hinYwas in substance that the peo-
pie take three thousand dollars
stock in the company for each mile
of the road built and also the right
of way he furnished. He announced
that il was the intention of the com
pany which he represented to con-
struct "A system of electric lines
through black land belt Of Texas, be-
ginning at Sherman and coming
south and going as far as Austin, a
distance of 260 miles. The same to
be double track and passing
through the towns of Mckinney,
Dallas, Waxahaehie, Hillsboro,
Waco and Temple. The company
is said to be capitalized at $780,
O0o, aud II is claimed that it has
ample capital to put the scheme
through. Such system as Is pro-
posed would make mileage equal
To most 0f the steam railroads of the
state.
MFR. Farnham was in Fort Worth
one day this week and stated TO a
Register reporter of that city that
the work of construction would be
commenced on the north end of the
line at once. He said 1t was the
purpose of his company To complete
the line between Waxahachie and
Dallas within eight months and
that within eighteen months the
line between Dallas aud sherman
would be ready for operation.
Already surveyors are in the.
field between this city and Dallas
and between Dallas and Sherman
Mr. Farnham says three surveys
will be made and the one offering
the best Inducements will be the one
that will be adopted.
IL some portions of the country
when the proposed line would run
the people are very enthusiastic and
II is announced through the papers
that Collin and Hill counties have
already taken the amount of stock
that is required by the company.
AS known there is line in oper-
alton between Sherman and Den
ison and Is paying very handsome
dividend. There is also line be-
tween Dallas and Fort Worth and
Notwithstanding the fact that the
Texas and Pacific railway system is
making very hard fight against
the line, it, too is paying well. The
reason for the success of the cleo
trie system is the advantages Ii
offers over the steam railways.
Some Of these are the numerous
stopping places, having depots each
half mile; the low rate for passen-
gers being one and one bali cent per
mile, and also the frequency of the
| trains or cars.

what the Boom Depends on.

The Investing public learned something
from such an experience and so it was not
to be wondered at that the present boom,
almost as marked as that of tenyyears ago,
is in farm lands instead. These have
a more substantial basis, to be sure, than
the town lots, and yet the price at which
the grain fields can be protftably held and
cultivated must depend much on the
world market for our great cereals. Our
own agricultural lands are pretty well
taken up. Although Uncle Sam still
owns millions of acres, amounting to so
per cent of the area of seventeen states,
1t is, with slight exceptions, land on
whic no one could support himself in ag-
rioulture except by shifting the rock Of
national irrigation. Accordingly, as the
land boom wakes strong, with that ad-
vance of prices which has created an
anti beef trust agitation among the con-
sumers of the east, the western benefi-
Charles of this same upward movement are
reaching out for more land. The natural
increase of population, Of course, empha-
sizes the call, and Canada has just been
discovered. Americans have found out
that they oan raise wheat there for the
British market just as profitable as they
can here, and so they are pouring across
the line. <,-..-. sz. H.

Americanization of Canada.

In 1893 fewer than 10000 Americans
crossed the border, while this year 1T Is
estimated by J. Obed Smith, dominion
immigration commissioner at Winnipeg,
that out of a total immigration into west
ern Canada of $4,000, the United States
contributes 10000. 1t has been predicted
that we shall soon, be pouring Americans
into Canada at the rate Of 900 year,
as we have 80 long been pouring them
into our own northwest, under a similar
economic stimulation. It Is notable
illustration of the way the plans Of men
turn askew that when Sir John Mcdonald
built the Canadian Pacific railroad, partly
| to prevent the Americanization of west
ern Canada, he gave the road a land grant
Of about 40, 900 acres. It is this very
| land, through the company or It's as
signs. that the American settlers are now
| buying; and they will bring about the
| Americanization of Canada with greater
rapidity than was ever before thought OF.
Last year Manitoba raised as much
| wheat as North Dakota, land with the
three territories Of Alberta, saskatche-
| wan and Assinibota, produced $4,000, 900
bushels. The same section will pro-
duce this year 5000, 900 bushels, or about
! the yield of Minnesota. One minneapolis
milling company has already made ar
rangements to receive and grind Assin1-
| boia wheat in bond, and is planning to
build a 5000 bushel mill for the exclusive
grinding of Canadian wheat for the export
| trade. Manitoba alone has $500 miles
| of railway and other spur tracks are
| building. The Canadian Pacific Is active,
| and the Canadian Northern, the new con-
| tinental whose eastern terminus Is at
Port arthur on Lake Superior, is already
pushing out from Erwood, 800 miles
| northwest on to Prince Albert and Ed
! monton and through the Yellow Head
mass the lowest of mountain pathways,
and down to the Pacific. It is also es-
timated that within three years the whis-
| tie Of the locomotive will be heard on the

The Duty on Wheat.

=
Our northwest wants reciprocity with
this adjoining Canadian country. It
wants the removal of duty of twenty-five
cents bushel on wheat, which is sense
less since both countries sell In the same
market, and with it all the vexation of
having to mill in bond and export in bond
would be avoided. In return, the north
west would expect larger Canadian
market for its agricultural machinery and
other products. A number Of the har-
vesting machine concerns have already
established factories in Canada, but this
may be due to requirements of the pat
ent law quite as much as to the tariff it.
SELF Our northwestern boundary line
is purely AM artificial barrier; 1t does not
separate races or institutions or civil1za-
tions, to any noticeable degree. ~, For
s. R. Galloway, have been coming south
of the line to grow up with us, while
Americans are now going north of 1t to
become subjects of King Edward. Since
conditions of labor in this new wheat belt
will not differ materially from those in
the United States, it is easy to see how a
vigorous agitation, within the republican
party, for Canadian reciprocity is bound
| to be heard in the near future. 1t will
become political question of the first
| Importance, and If the northwest really
awakens to an economic advantage, the
| tradition of leaving the tariff alone Will
| probably have to give way Meanwhile,
Americans will be having weather eye
out for an opportunity to carry out an
almost forgotten plank of the republican
national plank of 1895 which read: 'We
hopefully look forward to the eventual
withdrawal of the European powers from
this hemisphere, and to the ultimate
union Of all Of the English-s speaking part
of the continent by the free consent OF
