Why havo wonofireorganization'in
Dallas? With a population of seven
thousand a largo district built
entirely of wood buildings and
with the very bestmatorial to form
such an organization) it is a Bhamo
that wo havo nono If our citizons
would reflect a moraont wo fool
sure that some ono 'would make
the nocossary move. Is it to tlioir
advantage to have a lire organiza-
tion or not and will it justify them
in expending a littlo trouble and
money? Wo think it will. In
many instances merchants havo
largo stocks in buildings situuted
on blocks built ontiroly of wood
houses in othor words in framo
rangos. Now it is evident that
should a fire occur in ono of these
rangos there is no possibility of
saving any houso in the range.with
the means wo now havo of fight
ing tho destroying clomont. A
crowd without somo ono to lead it
wo caro not how largo it may bo.can
hnvo but littlo ctToct upon ft largo
tiro undor full hendway. In order
to do anything to arrest tho de
struction it is absolutely necessary
that tlrtji-o should bo somo one to
direct. Every ono knows how
much confusion thoro is at eve'
ry fire- oven whoro there are
woll organizod fire companios und
how difficult it is to command a
concert of action. How much
greater then must bo tho confusion
and how much moro feoblo must be
tho ; effort to battlojigainstthe con-
suming flames when thero is noth-
ing to work but an excited crowd
with no head whatovor to direct or
control it. In tho singlo l'tom of
insuranco a great advantage may
bo gained by organizing a good and
efficient tiro company. Many grum-
blo at the apparent high rates of
insurance that companies are charg
ing on buildings and stocks in our
city but nover seem to think of the
inevitable loss that firo insuranco
companies jnust sustain should u
firo occur and nil on nccount of our
utter inability to arrest it.
Some may object to organizing a
steam firo company on nccount of
tho expense. This wo hurdly think
a reasonable objection for Dallas
ought certainly to be ablo to sus-
tain ten fold this expense in a causo
so necessary to her interests. But
if wo can not havo a steamer let
us havo a hook and ladder compa
ny. Surely tho cxponso of organ
izing and equipping such a compa-
ny cannot bo an objoelion. Besides
with our present number of frame
buildings such an organization in
many cases may be of moro sorvice
than any othor. Will some ono
take tho lead in n causo bo noccssa-
ry to the interests and safety of
our city ?
Wo notice from tho Ilonston
Union that a ''Mammoth Fraud"
has perhaps boon porpotrated by
some ono or moro in tho way of a
hugo bill for stationary for the ben
efit of tho Senators of our present
legislature. The Chairman ol'iho
appropriate committee baring 'Un-
covered I lie fraud makes an ex-
posure and the matter is referred
to- an official committee Which
will bo likely to bring to light
nil (if any exist) tho frauds
that have been porpetratod by somo
one or other. "Who is ho ? Lot us
havo all the light possible upon
this subject. We aro somowhat
interested on this subjoct for our
worthy cltizon John W. Lane
who is the assistant Socrotary of
tho Sonnto is or should bo like

guilty partios? If guilt attaches to
any ono lot us know who he is
that our judgomont bo not un-

I am glad to soo tho Daily llEa-
ald appearing to so much adviwi-
tago both in typo and matter; and

to this important body from which
the poonlo oxnoct so much. Tho
good Lord grant that they may not
bo disappointed. At lvut 1 am
happy to say tho Constitutional
Amendment has been adopted. Af-
ter tho emphatic declaration of tho
peoplo on that question there
should havo boon no useless ex-
pendituresof time nor money upon
it but a few ambitious individuals
thought othcrwiso and fought it hi
long as they could. Tho final vole
against it in tho House only 111
showed the utter weakness of tho op-
Simmon ..uub certain geniiomon
who it may bo aro looking forward
for ofllco of somo kind havo from
tho buginninrg of tho session been
manifesting a decided hostility to
internal improvements though
thoy aro in tho habit of coininonuc-
ing all their demagogical speeches
with tho assortiou that "they aro
not opposed to railroads." O no!
they uro very friendly to railroads
if capitalists will build them but
opposed to any aid or encourage-
ment indeed they aro for throw-
ing such impediments in tho way
as will offootually prevout thorn.
For'instanco since tho adoption of
the Constitutional Amendment the
latest hoslilo movement has boon
made by Judgo Smith of Colorado
to ingraft upon any now railroad
charter or supplement to an old
oho tho right of tho legislature to
ropeal it at ploasuro. Any man of
sonso ought to know that capital-
its would never think of investing
thoir money on tho uncertainty of
l..!.l.... - n.. i-- I
ICglBIULIirU HULIUII. DUHIUUH II
would if carriod out produco n
systom of corruption far beyond
anything yet known in legislation.
At each session tho different mil-
roods trembling for their oxisonco
would have on hand any quantity
of agonta and money to buy up tho
mombers. It would work wretched-
ly and such men as Smith and Ire-
land ought to know it. It is a
principle of common law that nny
corporation may bo looked into on
a writ bf (no warranto by tho courts
and ifachnrtor has boon violated
it may bo annulled by thorn. Tho
friends of railroads 'aro porfoctly
willing that a general law shall bo
enacted by which proceedings
against corporations may tie institti-
tod in the courts; tor ulmrtors
while they are contracts undor tho
Constitution of tho United States
must be faithfully carried out by
both parties. I am happy to. in-
form you that tho attompt of
Judgo Smith to ingraft this right
ot appeal by the logislaturo undor
charter of tho East Texa! railroad
was A failure. A doeidod majority
of tho lower Houso aro right on al-
most nil mattors but thoy aro re-
tarded in their action by the por-
siBtent all'ttirs of tho impracticblos
and the old corduroys and "stick-
in-the-muds. The members lrom
your district nr0 ft" rir;h t and good
sound working mon. It is said
that tho now rogistry and election
laws will receivo tho Exocntivo
sanction. Thoy have boon modi-
fied and shaped bo as to avoid the
Governor's veto and I am told
that thoy will bo a great improve-
mont on the present systom and
wo can got along with them very
woll1 Tho houso has already acted

Senate may do wjih Tracy mi llie
sumo evidence I cannot with cer-
tainty say but 1 prosumo he will bo
unseated. Tho action of that body
in the Tcndick caso is not to bo ta-
ken as indicative of thoir conclu-
sion in this raattor. I think thero
were reasons for not going so far
back in the formor caso and that
cortnin democratic Senators have
boon too warmly censured for thoir
conduct in rotation thereto.-A great
many privnto bills aro being in-
troduced and passed on but it is
not my intention to notice any-
thing not of grout public impor-

The Story of Lost Will-
IProm the Datroll Free Proa. '
Two or tbroo -months ago J.
Howell tho furniture dealer on'
Michigan Avonuo sot about over-
hauling a desk fillod with ' old pa- '' ''
pors which had boon nceumulat- '
ing on his hands for several years '
until ho could scarcely say whoro
or hdw ho got tho most of them.' "
Aftor throwing awnya bushel or "
moro of the documents ho camo '
upon a paper scaled and tied with wn
red tupo. Ho could not ronietnbor '
having soon it before and waa
amazed whou ho broke the seal
lind read "Last will and tostamont 1
of Israel Whitworth." Gotting fur-
th or down he found that tho paper
was nine yours old and that tho
willgavo to "Margaret Davis my j
sister or her children tbo Gordon
farm situated two and ono hatf
miles from St. Joseph Mo. togeth-;
or with all live stock and farming '
utensils; Author tho sum of 850U0 u
in bank in St. Joseph (unless I :
shall have withdrawn it) my gold
watch my household furniture -and
tho ono-hulf of what my houso
in St. Joseph may bring at private ' 4
sitlo." '
So read tho will ns far as tho sis-
tor and her kin wero concorned " '
and then Whitworth made bequests '
to several other relatives. Tho'""
will was dated "Dolriot Aug. 10.. -.
18t!3." It occurred to Mr. Kowelt
that tho will might bo of somo ao- "
count to somo one' and ho wrote to .
to Mrs. Davis; directing tho letter
to St. Joseph Mo. In about two ;
weeks ho received a reply fr6m '
her dated at Weston in same
State his letter having been for- r
warded to that point. Sho stated
that her brother hud boon dead
nearly eight years and thut she ;
had novor known of a Jvill. Tho (
property had boon divided among
four near rolativos of tho deceased r.;t
or should havo boon bat thrco of j
thorn had cheatod her out of most ot . .
what fell to her. injdividing up Shu
further stated that hor brother had '
a cousin in Dotroit years ago "and ' :
that ho wos in this city' on a visit
about tlioduto of tho will Tho 't
cousin's namo was signed ns ono of
the witnesses and a Mr. Johnson
now in Cincinnati was tho other -witness.
. i - . ..'!
Kowoll sent on tho will and Fri-
day last he received a grateful lot- . -ter
from tho woman who said that .h
tho will had been admitiod to pro- '
bate thero the witnessos called on
and that sho had boen put in pos- . :
session of noarly 920000 through
his finding tho will. She caution-
od him to look out for an express
package and will probably sond "
something handsome. Tho puz- :
zling thing of tho whole is that
Howell can t toll whero oivwhon he
got tho will nor imagino how. tho ..
doqeasod camo to leave it. where it ...
would fall into tho hands of a"!!"4'
stranor.
