The clouds are beginning to lift in

No one accuses Ingalls of orlbbinfc

dextrous mudslinglng In that com-
mon consent allows him the mastery
Lawrence Barrett has returned from
Europe entirely cured of his malady He

More plotting against the czar That

United States takes the form of plotting

When a politician becomes puffed up

Emperor William has ordered Bismarck

less complaining is on especial hardship
But what can bo expected of an autocrat

It is stated with every show of nu
thority that the expenditures of tho first
year of Harrisons administration frill
exceed that of Clevelands by 107000
000 and that the excess over InorenseIs
597030000 This is one form of Kepub
lican simplicity in the Scotch sense
The Louisville Times says that the
enumerators show a want of drill In their
efforts at census taking Drill may make
trembling knees grow stiff even facing
the battles tierce front but no amount

A little common sense horso sense

It is either a wise thing or the most ar-

that it is so popular and works so well in
about twontyUve other states in the
Union
Iv tho senato will take the trouble to

the country have expressoa their ap-

While wo are so often in the habit of referring
to the violations of law and order in Kentucky
we should also look at homo and see if some
moans cannot be found to forever stop the dis-
graceful perpetrations of Whlta Caps In oar
state those gangs of vlllians who nndcr the
pretense of correcting evils turn themselves
into brutes and commit outrages that should

A bill has been introduced by Repre-
sentative Hill for the incorporating of an
international bank simply to facilitate
commercial operation tho bank not to
be one of issue but of loan and discount
Should the bill become a law its effect it
Is thought will be to give the United

Emerson advises hitching ones wagon

The usual off year kicking is observ-
able in Kansas politics The Hnrpor
county Alliance people rebelled In con-
vention the other day against Ingalls
But when the critical hour arrives In
galls will be reeleoted all the same The
average Kansas Republican is liable to
take suoh spurts as that occasionally and
cot both feet outside the traces but a
few cracks of the party lash suffice to
teach him his duty when he dowb his
head nnd trots along in the furrow as of

A RErORT favorable to cooperation in
the survey tor the PnnAmorican Trunk
line has been submitted to the house As
this enterprise is neithor sectional In
benefits to be derived nor In any sense a-
political move it seemstbat the bill need
encounter no opposition but might be-
come a law at once The point to bo
striven for is to secure a route that is
most natural and least expensive that
there be no jobbery or repetition of the
Dulutb farce ns was exhibited In the
Northern Paoino survey
The Democratlo party has always
given the people an honest economical
government in Texas It will continue
to do so and capital that is seeking legiti-
mate Investment will ask no more
With any man as covornor the stato
will continue to prosper Railroads that
want to do the fair thine will have noth-
ing to fear and the men who manage
these kind of roads know It The power
to control railroads by the most practloa1
means will be put in the constitution
how much of it will be exercised depends
upon the roads themselves
Here Is the rather peculiar situation
in Nebraska The farmers up there be-
came so clamorous for railroad legisla-
tion that Governor Thayer was foroed to
call the legislature together in extra ses-
sion The call was issued only a few
days ago and the special session was to
convene June 5 Two or three days ago
legal objections to the speolnl session
were found whioh prompted the gov-
ernor to revoke the call and having
marched bravely up the hill ho marched
as bravely down again In the mean-
time the farmers will have to wait for
the regular order
When asked by the census enumera-
tor about your maladies or your mort-
gages you may answer or not ns you
choose The Federal constitution pro-
vides for an enumeration only a coun
of noses and not for an elaborate system
of impertinent crossquestioning for
statistical purposes Should you decline
Census Commissioner Porter will send
you a blank asking you to fill In the
omitted information You may decline
that also although penalttos are pro-
vided for refusing It Is extremely
doubtful however If you will ever hear
of the matter again penalties and all
We take pleasure In giving editorial
acknowledgment to the following kindly
and generous expression found in the El
Paso Tribune
Fort Worth El Paso shares your sor-
row over the loss of life and material
treasure In the burning of yonr Spring
Palace But El Paso rejoices to know
that the same energy and intelligence
that have served you so well in the past
nre still yours and that out of the ashes
ot your monument destroyed you will
rear another that shall be yet grander
and nobler than the first

says
Much Important business was handled today
Amo ng other things they gave a magnificent in
dorsement of the Newsjust think of it a vote
of 30 to B done not because an opponent might
have been a proHogg paper There were no
politics lu it whatever
If there was no politics in it why did
the News deem It neoesiary to say
there wns not The man who kicks be
joro he is spurred excites the suspicion
that he should be spurred Why was the
News so quick to deny that there was
politics in its selcotion as organ of the

Mary Anderson has written a charm-
ing letter to a relative in this country
fairly bubbling with a gossipy descrip-
tion of her affianced whom sbo avows
she loyes desperately Although the
day is not fixed the marriage she says
will take place in September or Ootober
after whioh she will settle down to house-
keeping In New York It may be there-
fore regarded ns positive that barring
accidents Mary will no more adorn the
stage with her queenly presnoo or pur-
Sue further the profession which she has
done so much to honor nnd dignify
That she should have fallen desperately
in love however will be a gratifying
surprise

If Northern journals derive any spe-
cial pleasure from asserting that Gen
Lee wns drawn Into the war against
his will well nnd good The pleniure
It may bo will be enhanced by the as-
surance that every true Southern man
was drawn into tho war against his will
Men went Into the Confederate army be-
cause their homes were Inyaded nnd
those who went otherwise were not men
of the stamp of Lee Albert Sidney
Johnson and Stonownll Jackson How-
ever men may differ as to the justness of
a cause he who Is true to his conviotlons
is a hero whether be wore the blue or
the gray and none need grudge him the
tribute paid to heroism
The Gazettes report of the Spring Palace
burning differs widely from the report given by
the News In the Gazette nothing is said of
the death of any one save the contractor Al S
Hayne while the News speaks of the great loss
ot life Nothing definite seems to be known by
those who are on the ground and reports are
made so conflicting that little ot what is now
given tolhe public may be regarded as true
Temple Times
This shows the evil of reckless report-
ing The first report sent to the Dallas
News from this place Friday night May
30 was an inexcusable sensationalism
cruel and heartless There are people
In Texas even who yet believe more lives
were lost than one That telegram to
the News carried terror to the homes of
all who read that paper and as the
above extract shows leaves many still
in doubt as to the truth
A rare exhibit of enterprise In the

edition Is hard to excel Whether there Is
not some of that kind of fact which It is
best to substantiate we refrain from say
ing This muoh is most heartily con-
ceded The work is creditable in a high

An exrailroad attorney who opposes
a commission can be just as good a
Democrat as a railroad attorney or any
other man who favors a commission but
no better The Democraoy was fouuded
to take all men in its folds on a basis of
political equality Mr Cleveland says
the farming and laboring classes ore es-
sentially Democrats Mr Barry in his
remarks as printed in the Dallas News
seems to think they are essentially no
suoh thing and no declaration of faith
is to be accepted from them A test
found sufficient in tho Democratio party
for a century and now found snfSoient
in every state in the Union is good
enough jind this same test of political
faith should be applied to all alike to the
banker and hod carrier to the lawyer
nnd farmer to the railroad director and
meohanlo Any man may deolare him-
self tho only simonpure Demoorat or
the only simonpure baking powder man
but the world need not concede It
Consider the faots should be the
desire of every man In dealing with the
rnilroads ns with every factor in the up
building of Texns Should tho amend-
ment be adopted and a law bo proposed
to establish commission regulation then
will be the time to present every fact A
crusade against railroods Is not the wish
of the people Democrats or Republi-
cans A crusade against railroads is no
the path to permanent political fortune
but it Is the road to ruin The adoption
of the commission nmendmont is ono
thing a commission law will be
another Therefore every friend ot
the amendment should givo
heed to the legislature to bo eleotod in
November To declare the right ot
commission regulation is ono propo-
sition to elect unreasoning enemies of
corporations to the legislature is an-
other Those who believo in the right
of the state to enaot commission law
must support tho amondment but
those same men should lend their influ-
ence to the election of a legislature that
is not aotuated by blind prejudice The
legislature will make the laws that shall
promote or impede the progress of TexaB
JOXntNALISM AS ABVSINESS
Few readers of newspapers have any
well denned idea of the business features
iq newspaper work and that each month
larger sums of money aro paid out than
In almost any business employing the
Bame number of men Only those on
the iuslde can appreciate tho many com-
plication of the business nor how nicely
balanced must be all departments in
order to make a successful paper The
soalo thai weighs the coin of the realm
is not more nicely adjusted The weight
of a hair it Is said will disturb that
balance a breath will affect the balance
in the newspaper and that breath hun-
dreds of miles from tho ledger
Soma Idea ot the cost of a largo paper
ma be gathered from statistics to be
found in the current number of the
Century Mr Camp the author of the
paper quotes on the authority of ono ot
the most suocessfull journalists of this
country the total Journnllstlo produot of
a year at 100000000 ond estimates the
amount paid out by publishers for the
gathering of news at 516570000 The
bills that are given for white paper and
for composition nre startling and leave
not a vestige of doubt in a candid mind
that the newpaper industry is a gigantlo
business an enterprise that to be run
successfully Must be run on a sound
business basis
The comparative circulation of morn-
ing and ovenlng papers indifferent cities
is given In a comprehenslvo table One
fact is clearly eluoldated and It is one
that bears upon newspaper enterprises
it is that any point which does not by
railways compass a largo soope of
country or where there is a pauoity of
tributary population cannot in the
nature of the case be favorable to new
journatlstio ventures

window on tha northwest nngle ot the
building and who was hurt in the back
to a place of safety that I returned as
near as possible to the same point when I
saw several gentlemen on the north side
of the wire fence aporoacbiug the flames
with a tarpaulin aud goin hurriedly in
that direction I saw a man emerge from
the smoke and heat from the burning
building He was alone and running
westward near the wire fence 1 asked
the parties to give me an end of the tar-
paulin through the fence while pulling
it tbroush the fleeing man passed me
I pursued him and saw that his clothing
was aflamo and burned entirely off his
back I enveloped him in the
Moth nnd he fell gently into
my arm and I as gently laid
him upon the ground and threw the
cloth from over his face and wrapped his
body closely In It
By this time others came and assisted
me in carrying him to a place of safely

When wo stopped some one said that
this man was Al Hayne I see one
Jessie Williams claims to have rescued
Al Hayne and carried him to a
place of safety He may have brought
Al Hayne from the building but he
certainly did not carry him to a place of
safety I do not claim any credit to
myself since it is the duty of every one
to rescue care for and sympathize with
suffering humanity no matter what the
conditions
Our people sympathize and moin with

SPECULATIVE
Speculators Enthused Over tho Prospect
of an Early Silver Bill
fosar Bcflnerles Certificates onChance Bask
Jnr in the Snnllght of Prosperity
Bull and Eer Tactics
Special to the Gazette
New York June C The aspect of thing
this morning was similar to that of sir weeks or
more ago when silver was the watchword oh
every tongue and prices were rising of thciO
own accord with a bnoyancy born of ihe belief
that there would be such an inflation of the
currency as would cause a real increase in prices
of stocks as well as everything else The pas-
sage of the silver bill is now believed
to ba a mattar ot days not ot
months Wall street now seems to precede
not to follow events and it proposes to put up
prices of stocks at once to figures to which they
would eventually attain in a general inflation
Opening prices seem to rise with effort and ad-
vances were general This is in contradistinc-
tion from the recent more or less labored eleva-
tion ot one groupo after another Vanderbilts
were perhaps favorites but they rose of their
own accord Tho Miehigan Central rise was
accompanied by the renewal of the
reports that the stock will at
the next meeting be made a G
per cent dividend payer As for
Cleveland Columbus Cincinnati and St Louis
everybody has wondered for some time why it
did not go up to a place which belongs to it as a
4 per cent dividend payer earning 5 per cent
Sugar refineries certificates now bask in the
sunlight of Drospenty so dazzling bright
that it is almost incredible that a week
ago they were plunging wildly downward
with all the forco which unscrupulous
bear tactics could lend The point
used to advance them is the prosperous condi-
tion of the sugar trade How little that has to
do with the fluctuations ot the certificates is ably
demonstrated by the fact that the condition of
trade a week ago was Just as promising as it is
at present Sugar makers are not fortunately
situated for bear purposes They have legal
difficulties ot trust an invaluable ally which
they will he loth to lose For bull purposes
they have actual profits of trust
which beyond doubt are great
at nearly all times These two cards they play-
off against one another as suits their ends The
last hour of the day was an excltlngone Sugar
certificates monopolized the market entirely and
fluctuated madly Prices went up to 84c then
a sudden attack was made which sent it tum-
bling down to liVtC Shortly before the close
many stop orders were unearthed For the last
ten minutes prices jumped about feverishly
closing at 77yc Fresh batches of innoeents had
been caught monkeying with the buzzsaw and
manipulations were so much the richer
Tho general market was demoralized but
prices did not g > off greatly There were evi-
dences that London is waking up to the occa-
sion Bar silver advanced sharply Private
cables state that no cash silver was in the mar-
ket and that offerings for delivery next month
were from d to 1 penny above the quoted price
Indian rupee bonds were considerably
higher in London on the prospect of
increase in the value of silver which is to follow
the passage of the silver bill London prices for
Americans were higher alhough buying orders
in our market were not heavy In fact trading
on onr stock exchange was dull duller than it
has been for weeks Sugar transactions consti-
tuted nearly onethird of the whole deal-
ings notwithstanding the confidence in
the law makers The days market was
a willing ono and dullness came alter the first
hour and a falling off from early advances of
the day Citizens gas of Brooklyn was a strong
and active feature Distillers and cattlefeed
ers company shares continued strong The
sturdy way in which these securities stood tha
attacx on the industrial securities last week
gave rise to considerable favorable comment

good sized transactions in hand which
will be dosed within a week or ten days
The month of June promises to be active
as far as real estate is concerned and
sales will exoeed those ot Maroh
which was considered a heavy
month This fact coupled with
the record made in May when the aggre-
gate sales readied over 2250000 shows
that Fort Worth dirt Is growing in de-
mand The recorded transfers published
from day to day show that hundreds of
lots iu the various additions are being
sold 1o people who propose to build resi-
dences from the neat cottage to the
grand mansion

AN ERA OF BUILDING
It begins to nppear as if Fort Worth
was about to enter into an era of un-
precedented buldling notlvlty The Ga-
zette knows of 400 feet front of hand-
some buildings to go up on Main
and Houston streets in the near
future and there is good ground to
believe that work will be under way in-
side of nlnoty days on 225 feet more As
mentioned a few days ago Mr Hyde
Jennings will erect a threestory build-
ing on Main street near Seventh and
yesterday Mr W A Huffman just be-
fore his departure for the East stated
that arrancements bad been made
by him to build 100 feet front-
on Main and Twelfth streets
A gentleman left last night
for Chicago to look at a number of line
buildings there to select a model for a
building ono hundred feet square to go
up on Main street work to begin on this
building during the summer Tho other
buildings to go up will be made known
in a few days There is ono thing in this
connection that demands the serious at-
tention of our oltizens With twenty or
twentyfive fine business structures go-
ing up in Fort Worth In nddition to
the work already in band a
largo number ot mechanics will be
added to the citys population Where
will they find houses This demand must
be supplied and it should not be many
days until at least 150 new dwelling
bouses are being built for homes for
these people
FINE BUILDING STONE
Texas is indeed a great state how
great is not fully realized by our own
people It has only been a few months
Binoe Fort Worth Dallas and other cities
were brlngins red sand stone from
Colorado and Lake Superior to
put In fine buildings whereas it is
now known that a much finer red sand-
stone Is found in Texns 335 miles west ot
Fort Worth on the Texns and Pnoluo
Yesterday nfternoon two immense blocks
of this stone were unloaded In the vacant
lot on Main street between Sixth and
Seventh street one weighing 11000
pounds the other 8000 pounds A mirn
ber of citizens among them expert
stonomen looked at tho stone and
pronounced It far superior to an
red sandstone they had ever
seen Messrs MoCart Durack and
Roeers own the quarries from which the
stone comes and they say lc will be laid
down in Fort Worth at such figures that
it can be largely used It is probable
that St Andrews Episoopal churoh will
be built of this stone
