TOWN AND COUXTItr POPULATION
As the census reports testify 2912
per cent of tho population of this coun-
try lives in cities and towns Very near
one third of all our people are towns-
people
But this urban population is very un-
equally distributed over the country
The Xorth Atlantic states have the
largest proportion where 4922 per
cent or about one half of all the peo-
ple live in towns and cities In
the South Atlantic btates and the
South Central states the percentage is
but 779 and 029 respectively
Tho Southern cities must grow
They will never perhaps be as popu-
lous in proportion to the whole people
as the cities of the Northern states for
we are more purely an agricultural
people in the South and there is so
much more good land unoccupied in
the South than in the Xorth to allow
for expansion in that direction but the
Southern cities must reach a place of
far greater importance than they hold
at present As the Northern states
overflow the surplus seeks the South
and these people bring with them their
preferences for city life
The diversion of manufacturing en-
terprise southward will have the
greatest effect iu changing the char-
acter of our population and bringing
people to the cities
Iu 100 there will be at least two
cities in Texas that will number 100
000 people or more One of these cities
will bo Fort Worth The other that
depends
Till TEXAS cities

There are twenty eight cities in the
United States with a population of 100
000 or more
tkkacii for the people
Nothing can surpass the profound
respect which tho anti administration
organs now profess for the sovereign
people save and except the profounder
contempt in which they held them
last fall after they had declared their
choice for governor When the peo-
ple said they would have Jim Hogg
and no other for governor they were
playfully and flippantly alluded to as
anarchists communists and tho
riff raff of creation Now when war
is declared against the governor these
same anarchists and communists that
elected him are told that they are the
salt of the earth Solomons all and
that it was a cruel shame to rob
them of tho privilege and the right
of electing three railway commis
bioners Six months ago they did
not know enough to elect a decent
governor Now they are each and
all bubbling fountains of wisdom
sagacity and patriotism If tho peo
ple believe what tho organs alluded
to said of them six or eight months
ago they will swallow the sickening
treacle that is now being ladled out
to them but notothorwi e
TIIC COUNTRY needs people
During the discussion of the Brown-
ing bill to appropriate money for a
Texas exhibit at the Worlds fair the
state press that assumes a sort of pro-
tectorate over the farmers interests
was bitter in opposition to the bill aud
not to tho bill alone but to the setting
asido of any public money for that pur-
pose Tun Gazette does not believe
that these papers voiced the sense of
tho intelligent and progressive farm-
ers of Texas in their utterances on this
occasion
There is no reason for the farmers to
stand against the using of the public
means for ssttling the state Thoir
very interest is in line with such a pol-
icy As tax payers they want men to
take up the vacant school lands and
contribute to the state revenue
Some twenty odd million acres now be-
longing to the state are untaxed When
this land passes to private ownership
it becomes tax bearing and the as-
sessed valuation of real estate would bo
swelled by 830000000 if all this land
were in the hands of farmers from
which the state and the school fund
would draw a revenue of about SloO
000 a year And the purchase money
would increase the permant school fund
to 75000000 or more the income from
that principal doing away with taxa-
tion for school purposes
As producers they need the waste
lands settled and towns built up for
trading centers Population makes
towns and cities and their citizens be-
ing consumers they become the best
local markets for farm produce Wo
have an example in the Fort Worth
packing house Fort Worth would not
be possible but for the people that have
settled the country around it The
packery would not be here but for Fort
Worth And there would bo no local
market for hogs and cattle but for the
packery Give us double tho country
population to draw from and tho mar-
ket at this place will be more than
doubled
As landholders the farmer more
than anybody else want the country
settled Close population makes land
valuable The farmer owning a section
of land in a county of 10000 population
has a property worth may be 85 an
acre Double the number of people
and it is worth 810 an acre and if in
consequence of the added population a
railroad is built and a town spring uj
near it the land is worth from S25 to
S0 an acre Immigration brings
wealth
From whatever side we look at the
proposition it must be held that the
welfare of the farming world goes side
by side with a close settled well tilled
country Those papers and those self
made leaders who presume to speak
for the farmers have misled them and
misrepresented them in claiming that
they were not friendly to an appropria-
tion for a Texas exhibit at Chicago
THE PRESIDENTS WELCOME
The president should learn a useful
and a profitable lesson from his tour
through the South He is met at every
turn with the most lavish hospitality
and welcomo Cities vie with each
other in doing him honor and the re-
ceptions accorded him are certainly as
elaborate and magnificent as he or his
friends could hope for It is his first
visit to the South the first time ho has
mingled with Southerners on their na-
tive heath or broke bread with them
If he were a Democrat he would not
receive a more profuse welcome An-
drew Jackson himself would scarcely
be greeted in a more elaborate manner
or honored more highly It is doubt-
ful if President Harrison has met with
grander ovations in any of his tours
through the North He may have en-
countered greater crowds because of
the larger cities but in proportion to
population he will probably find no
where during the present swing round
the circle a more generous hospitality
or enjov a more generous welcome
He will learn much about the South
that he knew of only imperfectly or
perhaps not at all Ho will find a peo-
ple magnanimous hospitable and brave
He will find that the war is over He
will find the two races living and work-
ing together in harmony and with far
less friction than exists between tho
mine owners of Pennsylvania and their
thousands of overworked and under-
paid employes Ho will find that the
race problem is farmore so farasit is a
problem at all of a socialogical than
of a political character and one there-
fore that must of necessity work out ils
own solution all the sooner if unvexed
or unimpeded by political interference
He will find a new South such as Henry
Gradys burning eloquence made known
to the people of the North a South that
rich in the wealth bestowed by nature
and a bountiful providence is devoting
its best energies to material growth and
prosperity The smoke of unnumbered
chimneys from Atlanta to San Antonio
will testify to that fact in the plainest
terms It is an object lesson that the
chief executive can not but profit by
He will find an earnest desire among
our progressive people to widen tho
scopo of thoir energies by breaking
down the trade barriers that keep them
to a great and harmful extent out of
the markets of the world The evi-
dences of this praiseworthy spirit he
will find on the gulf coast as well as in
various commercial and industrial con-
ventions held from time to lime in the
West and South
Another thing he will find and that
is the absence of the bitter sectional
and political animosity commonly sup-
posed by Northern Republicans to pre-
vail to an alarming extent in the South
He will find that tho partisan spirit in
the solid South is less rancorous than in
his own state of Indiana where in bi-
ennial elections the spirit of faction be-
tween the two parties glows at a while
heat and partisanship well nigh runs
mad
The people of the South honor Presi-
dent Harrison as the chief executive of
the nation and it is only natural to in-
fer that he will regard a people so
kindly and generously disposed towards
him so ready to do him honor and to
strew flowers in his way as patriotic
and attached to the institutions of their
country People who look sourly on
their rulers and detest the laws under
which they livo do not shower honors
on those same rulers when visiting
them The people of the South respect
the constitution as much as they of
Maine or Massachusetts They are as
well disposed to obey the law of the
land and to honor him who executes
the law as are the people of any North-
ern state Conscious therefore of their
own integrity upright purposes and
good intentions they resented the im-
putation that they were otherwise and
that they deserved to be robbed of tho
inalienable right of freemen the right
to conduct their own elections They
opposed Warmly and bitterly the intro-
duction of Federal mercenaries to man
ago and control their elections for
them not because it was undemo-
cratic but because it was unjust hu-
miliating and degrading
It is hoped that the president will
learn their true character while among
them which if he does will teach him
tho folly of force bills in governing a
high spirited people

ABOUT FORT WORTH
There were eighteen deeds Jo real estate
sold filed in the county clerks office yes-
terday Some of tho sales are for good
amounts and the number indicates that
trading is reasonably active Several
pieces of property bought lately
are to build on and architects say that
they expect building operations to be active
in a short time One firm has plans pre-
pared for a 20000 residence oa which
work will begin on Juno 1 and
another residence to cost Jo500 which is
being built This firm has also completed
plans for a 23000 residence for Mrs Sollie
Huffman which will be built on Buena
Vista Heights in North Fort Worth over-
looking the charming valley of the Trinity
The residence will be three stories and will
be of stone and brick It will be of the old
colonial style of architecture It will
have great wide halls that on the first
floor being reached from three entrances
In the third floor will be a balh oom This
residence will be one of the finest in Fort
Worth
There is marked improvement in real
estate dealings in Fort Worth There were
nine transfers recorded yesterday but this
by no means covers all the sales made
T B Burbridge yesterday sold to Kudolph
Hochstadter a wealthy New York
importer ten acres of land near the city
Three citizens of Hopkins county bought
six lots in the Methodist colleee addition
John Spurlock of Neyland bought two lots
in the Polytechnic addition and has ordered
plans for a nice residence Ho will move
to this city
W F Lane of Hunt county has pur-
chased two lots in the Methodist college ad-
dition He will build in a short time Mr
Spurlock who owns a very large farm vis-
ited tho packery while here and ordered a
years supply of meats for his people John
D Templeton sold four lots on Peach street
between Hampton and Harding for 2000
This was a bargain
A Springfield Mo citizen was discussing
values of Fort Worth property yesterday
with agents here Ho considered 15500
cheap lor the corner of Main and Sixth
streets twenty five feetandtho agents con-
sidered it so also They said JviOOOOwas
cheap for fifty feetcornerMain and Seventh
streets and held that all Main and Houston
street property was low at present prices
The material development of Fort Worth
continues steadily and for the times rap-
idly and on this development being made by
our people with tho assistance of some out-
side capital and on tho extraneous forces
at work for the upbuilding of Fort Worth
do our people reasonably look for renewed
activity in real estate transactions Every
sicn points to such activity and the recent
increaso in the number of sales leads
close observers to come to the
conclusion that this activity is
near at hand The area of Fort Worth is
but little over four square miles aud in the
city confines as they were when the United
States census was taken at which time
Fort Worth covered exactly four square
miles the enumeration showed 23000 peo-
ple On overy square mile of territory
0000 people lived In other words Tort
Worth is to day tho most compactly built
and densely populated city in Texas The
people living in this territory have
grown rich and are growing richer Tho
assessed valuations show that every man
woman and child even to the infants have
109s per capita The result of this accu-
mulation of wealth is that people ate leav-
ing the hotels and boarding houses where
they have resided and are building houses
of their own which they will make their
homes Thus it is that tho present active
building operations are seen The houses
that are going up are of the better class
from the cottage costing 500 and 1000 to
mansions costing 13000 2S000 and SJO
000 In tho mouth of March always a dull
mouth for building building permits were
issued for residences aggregating in cost
10500 In April tlio new residences that
will be constructed or on which work will
begin will aggregate in cost something
over 123000 The Chamberlin invest-
ment company alone will build
fifteen houses to cost about
sixty thousand dollars Somo twenty
houses will be erected in North Fort Worth
that will cost over eighty thousand dollars
Ten houses are now being completed in tho
cotton mill addition and yesterday Tuc
Gazette was informed that fifteen other
houses would be built at once Twenty
houses are being finished on Prospect
Heights and sixty five houses will soon be
under way on Lexington Heights
The foregoing enumeration does
not Include the houses being built
by those who will occupy them such as
those built by John D Templeton Hyde
Jennings W D Farris Jake Zurn N O
Blanchard W M Bering and others This
is what is being done in the way or resi-
dence building Several store houses are
now under way asgrcgating in cost 175
000 and several largo public buildings will
certainly be in course of con-
struction within tho next few months
a Federal building a city hall two school
houses and a lire hall in the Sixth ward aro
certainties The Masons will before long
build a temple that will be a credit to this
city St Andrews congregation will build
a line church aud one property owner has
decided to invest 100000 in store buildings
on the principal streets All this shows
that in the building line Fort Worth will
lead all Texas cities this year
Another Enlargement
The packery is a continual surprise It
seems impossible to put up buildings fast
enough to keep pace with increased trade
Yesterday tho company decided to double
the smokehouse capacity and will there-
fore turn the largo brick office building
into a smokehouse and build a large
two story brick west of tho new cooling
house for offices This will double the
smokehouse capacity as well as cooling
storeago and killing capacity
Headquarters for Bootes
The Southern Methodist church has es-
tablished its Texas book depository at Fort
Worth and placed Kev I Z T Morris
formerly of Bryan in charge Mr Morris
said the unequalled distributing facilities
of Fort Worth had determined the location
Her Mr Morris will bring his family to
Fort Worth in May
Extensive Improvement
H W Tallant of the Chamberlin invest-
ment company said yesterday that tele
fraphic instructions had been received by
im to at once begin tho construction of fif-
teen residences on Arlington Heights to
cost from 3000 to 5000 apiece Some of
these houses have already been sold and
the others will be sold on small payments
This company is increasing its power and
will soon have 100000 volts capacity with
240 horse power boilers which will run
twelve cars besides running motors A
circle of lights have been placed around
Lake Como which will burn until midnight
after May 1
Another Park and Lake
Wallace Hendricks said yesterday that I
C Terry engineer of the Fort Worth city
company had laid out a park for the com-
pany on the North Side and as soon as
grades were given work on the park and a
beautiful lake would begin The teams are
all ready on the ground The park is in a
beautiful spot covered with natural trees
with a stream of clear water running
through it A contract will be let this
week to build a number of houses in North
Fort Worth Besides the mansion to be
built on BuenaVista Heights by Mrs Sal
lie Huffman to cost S2s0O0 it is almost an
assured fact that four other fine residences
will go up oa tho same property Work of
constructing the bridge over the Trinity
will begin in a week or ten days and in a
few weeks thereafter the rapid transit line
to the North Side will be in full operation
again
The Mcthodbjt Collese
Fort Worth will soon see work under
way on the Methodist Polytechnic institute
to be built near this city by the great church
which numbers its members in Texas by
the hundred thousand Yesterday Rev W
L Nelras presiding elder of this district
Rev W P Wilson and T T B Andrews
were busy inspecting plans submitted by

Capt McKeo of Kansas City the head of
the firm that is to build and conduct the

lumber bills and orders for other material
that will enter into the construction of the

finds a trade ready for it in the
quantity of barrels and cusks used
by tho packery brewery and the
four flour mills that will make 1200 barrels
of flour every day as soon as the srreat
