WEDNESDAY, JUNE, 16, 1889. A OOMPLIMERT. At the last county convention of the Bates county “wheel” a commit- tee was appointed, composed of Messrs. Shelton, of Deepwater, Bow- den, of Spruce and Judge Fix, of Prairie, to confer with the publish- ers of this paper and notify us that the “Wheel” had endorsed the ‘Trurs as the official organgof that order in Bates county. We con- sider t his as a great compliment, not only for the high regard in which the Times is held by the very best men in the county, but itshows an appreciation of the past efforts of this paper in the interest of the farming class, and for that reason is a gratificaticn to its managers. The Tus is published in the interest of the farmers and any orgainzation that directly affects the interest and is beneficial to the farming element meets our hearty approbation. There is no doubting that the only true policy for the proper advancement of farming interests is through a systematic organization. This can be found throughout all branches of trade and the results show that it is highly beneficial to those thus work- ing for mutual benefits. The “Wheel” is a non-political order, with the ob- ject in view of bettering the condi- tion of the farmer and of protecting his interests. It brings him in closer relation with his neighbor, where an exchange of ideas and experiences can be had and forms a closer union and better feeling than could possi- bly be gained any other way. The first “wheel” was organized in this county less than three months ago and the membership now ranges from 800 to 1,000 of the very best farmers in the county. The Tres will pub- lish from time to time the proceed- ings of the “Wheel” conventions or of neigborhood “wheels” and other things that will be of benefit or inter- est to the members. ESE TRIP THROUGH TEXAS. The editor of the Tnsxs, accom- panied by his wife and son, hada delightful trip through the central and southern portions of Texas last week. Leaving Butler on the even- ing of the 10th, Tuesday morning found us running through the Cher- okee strip of the Indian Ty. This is one of the loveliest countries we ever beheld, with its undulating prairies, stretching out as far as the eye could penetrate, with now and then a mound, rising abruptly from the surface, as if the work of man or the freak of nature, now a beautiful stream crossed with timber in abundance along its margin. When this strip is opened up to white set- tlement it will make one of the rich- est agricultural sections in the west. The southern portion of the Terri- tory 1s rougher, with more timber and the soil not so rich. The towns we pass through in the Territory are allsmall, but in some considerable business is transacted, noticeably at McAllister, where is vast coal fields Deing operated and a great amount of the black diamond shipped. The first city of importance we stop at is Denison, Texas, which has so recent- ly passed through a phenomena] boom, a first cousin to the great Wichita boom, but not so long lived, as the knowing ones already predict that the “bottom has fallen out.” Dension isa beautiful little city of 20,000 inhabitants, surrounded bya good country, and while it will prob- ably never make a great metropolis, there is lots of wealth, the citizens are prosperous and enterprising and it is avery desirous place to live. The next important stopping point, after arun of about 200 miles through a beautiful, well improved, agricultur- al country, was Ft. Worth, the coun- ty seat of Tarrant county, situated on the bank of Trinity river, with an altitude of $25 feet above the level | of the sea. 30,000 inhabitants, from a city 2,000 in 1878. She hashad no boom but a steady, healthy growth which to | jshows no sign of diminishing, : | judge from the number of fine large | purposes unless there is a storm on | buildings now under course of con- | the gulf. Galveston is a beautiful | | struction, Antonio, by way of Austin. ae - st TSS GT She has 2 population of besides other improve- ments going up. The stranger is impressed with the excellent condi- tion of her streets of which her citi- zens boast of 40 miles of well graded streets and 15 miles of street rail- way. The chief attraction now at Ft. Worth is her “Spring Palace,” and here we could but fail did we try to give ever so cursory a des. scription of this beautiful and mag- nificent structure,built and decorated from Texas’ products, with the fine and artistic display of her resources and products by counties. The frame of the building is, of course, wood coyered from dome tip to foundation with wheat, oats, cotton, corn, grasses, etc., arranged se as to produce the most desirable effect. The interior arrangement must be seen to be appreciated, and was pro- nounced by one and all who viewed it as one of the best exhibits of the kind they had ever witnessed. The citizens of Ft. Worth deserve the thanks of the entire State of Texas for their enterprisein thus arrang- ing to show the vast resources of that state to the outside world at such excellent advantage. placed under lasting obligations to our former fellow townsman, Brower Brugler, who represeats the Missouri Loan & Trust Co., with headquar- ters at Ft. Worth, for a carriage ride over the city and other courtesies shown us during our stay, also we desire to acknowledge courtesies from Messrs. Moore & Terrell, a prominent real estate firm and the Powell Brothers, formerly of Bates county, now in the live stock busi- ness. We were From Galveston we went to San At the latter place we only stopped fora few minutes and had to content our- selves with viewing Texas’ $3,000,- 000 state house from a distance. This is probably the finest state house in the United States. The country we pass through compares very fayorably with the best portions of Missouri, only as we near San An- tonio the country gets rougher and the chaparral, a scrubby looking brush, grows in abundance. San Antonio isa quaint old city, among the first established on the conti- nent. Its population is about $60- 000. It was laid out by the Mex icans, the streets are very narrow and not systematically laid off. Ev- ery few blocks can be found public plazas, or squares. The San Anto- nio river winds around through the heart of the city, spanned by iron bridges at every street crossing. It is a very cosmopolitan city, the Ger- man element predominating. The places of interest to the traveler are the San Pedro Springs Park; the San Fernando cathedral, two hun- dred years old; the Alamo, where were butchered 170 brave Texans by five thousand Mexicans, after a siege of twelve days in which the latter lost over one thousand killed; and the other old missions built by Monks over two centuries ago, for the pur- pose of civilizing the Indians. These old missions are well preserved and bid fair to stand for another hun- dred years. The architecture of these buildings will compare favora- bly with the very best of our en- lightened nineteenth century. Those who visit this city for the first time should not fail to visit the chile stands on the military plaza, and partake of a Mexican lunch. The bill of fare is about as follows: chile, (hash), Torteas (pancake); Enchilada (mixture of chile, torteas, cooked cheese, &c.), Chile Concarne (meat with chile gravy);Chiley Frijola (chile and beans); Tamales (flavored meats put up in corn husks); Guyana (prep- aration of stewed chicken). We were the guests while in the city of J. J. Dickinson, telegraph editor of the Express, the best morning paper in San Antonio. The friends of Mr. Dickinson in Bates county will be glad to learn that he is doing well, and is well liked by the people of that city. and spent a day on the beach and en- joyed a bath in mother ocean. This is claimed to be the tinest beach or the continent. It is 27 miles long and is never too rough for bathing city, of about 40,000 inhabitants, | gituated on an island several wiles | from the main land. Itis a shipping | port of considerable importance, though the larger ocean vessels can ' not get into herharbor. Consider- able money has been spent here for deep water but without avail, now it is generally conceded in Texas that if they ever get deep water they must look to Corpus Christi, located further down on the coast. The corn and cotton crops are looking well throughout the portion of Tex- as over which we passed. The wheat and oats have been harvested in southern Texas. They have had plenty of rain and the grass looks fine. Texas is a great state, with an excellent and healthful climate, and at present there is a large emigra- tion going into her borders. Before closing this article we would speak of the excellent condi- tion of the M. K. & T. railroad, which runs through most of the territory over which we traveled. The road is smooth, solid and kept in good repair, the coaches are kept clean and comfortable, the officials polite and accommodating. Theroad runs through the most picturesque por- tion of the Indian Territory and makes the quickest time from this section of the country of any road runuiug to the Lone Star State. Death From Hydrophobia. John Schaples, bitten by a mad dog three months ago, as stated in the Evening News yesterday, died last night at the city hospital of hy- drophobia. He suffered terrible ag- ony, snapping and biting at every- thing and frothing at the mouth. The cog which bit him has not yet showed any symptoms of rabies. Schaples has relatives in Ft. Scott and Paola.—K. C. Evening News.
