THE WHISPERER.
"I seo hiiory is repeating i'slf"
said G ner.il K cber Van ' ii.dt of
Fort Worth 'otho Whiepertr "I
reckon Fort Worth is tho greatest
subscription town in the world and
we al stays have found there mat
tt o sihrkd men tamo to the front
wilt' lemiikablo celerity ard w.th
Mitprish gly largo amcu'irs when

same csperieice here now with
reference to the Cotton l.lacj
-totk aid I am Mire you will lind
it so in anything elsu ou tindo!-
tike. The men who woik for wages
are the backbone of any communuy
any w.iy you tike thoiu."
"I throw up my hands" said a
prominfiit business man this morn-
ing. "When tho Cotton Pal ice
pn jeot wa- lirst mooted I thought
it would bo a gcod thing for co
to have tho Palace but had no idea
tho money coulJ bo raised and o
have tiicn lather cold in the work.
But the rirct two days of sub-
scription soliciting showed mo my
niHtake I am willing to acknowl-
edge it and from now on I am
going to be one of the un st enthu-
siastic workers in tho enterprise
I can't do very much but work and
am not a very good hand at that
but I'll make up in enthusiasm what
I laek in ability. Count mo and
my houso for the Cotton Palace."
'The trouble with this ;ouutry".
skid a thoughtful uiiiuhur of a
group of gentlemen whoso conver-
sation was tnjjyed by tho Whis
perer uus mining "is that too
ui'iny people are trying to live with
oiu ork. And ttio educition of
early lilii is largely responsible Lr
ibis. Tuo many peoplu aro having
their children cdueatcd out of the
desire or wi.linguess to work for a
living. As a result the cities aro
b-.coinii g eruwdud with people who
are. trying lo live oil' of one another
and all depending upon the few
whom lak of educuiou or natural
tisto compel to produce for the
many. Ttio armies of thu un-
employed who aro bett-igiug tho
fiee lunch counters and cnarit
soup houses in the big cilie aie
c imposed largely of nun who went
to w rk in the towns when they
should have stayed on the farms.
Fanners aro not getting rich very
fast ihoo days and ueer have any
too much money but they c.n all
luve (onieihing to eat if they are
iiidustriuu-' no inaitor how haul the
tiiui-s may be. The salvition of
UiU country lies in keeping nnre
people on the fauns an l moie of the
)0uih of the nation must bo edit-
ted to toat end."
