re called to meet in Austin on
londay April 18tb for the pur
pose of making a more perfect or
ganization
State candidates who will speak
I in San Saba well be granted full
protection And if they sound the
right note they will make a big

San Antonios city Treasury has

It is now believed that Clark
will be elected if he gets the nom-
ination And he will certainly bo
in the convention He is gaining
rapidly and the Clark enthusiasm

The executive committee of the
Farmers State Alliance of Texas
have issued a call for the several
alliance throughout the state to
hold a meeting on Saturday April
2nd at 2 oclock for the purpose of
ratifying the platform of principles
adopted at St Louis Feb 22nd
1892 by the Labor conference
The law can compel a man to
work the road five days provided
the road overseer sees proper But
doea the law compel the overseer
to call his hands together five days
in each year It is to be hoped
however that the overseers will
give their respective roads a
good working and pnt the roads in
good conditions as roads are an im-
portant item in the make up of a
countys welfare
Our county is still making head
way on the road to success Sst
tlers are coming in and the county
f ia filling Crops are growing nicely
and stock doing moderately well
All who come to our county and
see it just as it is say they are well
pleased This speaks well for the
county We need n railroad in ol-
der to ship thtr farm products and
stock from our county and some-
day in the near future we will get
a road the shipments to and from
our county are heavy and would
bjULbandsome income to a road
There is scarcely a worse school
on earth for the education of the
young than that of the street And
it is a melancholy reflection that
so many of the rising generation
ore preparing to graduate into act
ire life from its corrupting associ-
ations It is impossible to calcu-
late the power and extent of the
evil influences which are brought
to bear upon the minds and hearts
of boys who are allowed unrestrict
r ed liberty to roam the streets day
and night imbibing the evil com
mnuications which corrupt good
manners drinking in lessons of
blasphemy from their companions

Why dont the lawyers who go
out to make speeches when allud

country tell their hearers that
we only have nine million of our
homes mortgaged that we have the
small number of three million men
hunting work that aliens only own

In comparing our sale of lands
for Taxes with the sales of other
counties advertised in our exchang-
es we find that ours is much less
than a great many others although
ours is much larger than usual
This speaks well for our county
And in ours there is not a town lot
advertised this certainly speaks
well for our town

Ed News The grass is grow-
ing birds are singing hens are
laying a fine rain has fallen and
everything seems to bo dressing
up in spring style probably spring
will soon arrive when it comes we
trout it immediately announced be
cause we stilish people dont want
to be attired in spring clothing in
tho winter time that would be nn
intrnsion on the season and then
us people are gettin purty hifaloot
in anyhow We farmers are trying
to keeD pace with the progress
we have sorter got it in our headn
thniwoTnest coitJJiS od way p
doing and rub ont and begin new
as it wore Little one horse plows
have no more charms for us We
like these hightoned yanky ridin
plows Fes sir whats the use of
staying so far behind the world
when wo can get a plow thats
manufactured away back there in
yankeydom which will harrow tho
ground plow in the stumps and
split it into stovewood cultivate
the crop and do everything else but
go to mill Now the fact of the
business is weuns down here keep
getting more sensible all the time
and still we want to learn more nil
the time so once and awhile we
have to get a dot or so from the
Editors describing how to take the
rock out of tho other end of the
sack and divide the corn and ad-
vertise more liberally c But
now for this new impetus in agri-
culture we must have imported
amongst us some courteous loving
gentleman who feels such an inter-
est in our welfare that he can no
longer refrain from letting it bo
known to us so he comes to see us
in person and is always oh so hap-
py to see us be shows us his goods
and then tellfi us that we have been
highly recommended to him as
just the fellows to come to there
fore has called around He then
begins to put an affection bait on
his hook If wo nibble he goes on
but if ho thinks wo aint going to
grab righter hold hed put on
llOoItbolt hvpnnotliPrnntUfioBl
lyhed bait with something so
smart and so funny that we will
nail righter bold and freeze to it
We are now prepared to consid
er more prolificer and decide that
wo are not as enterprising as we
should be Wo wont to farm a
little more biferlootin Weve got
some six bit ponies too and if we
dont put tb em to work we cant do
nothing no how
Mr Editor we got sorter stuck
on that man who sold the Yanky
plows He was so hifalootin polly
tick he said said he I just tell you
brethren we poor downtroden
hardy handed farmers are going to
down those dadblasted National
banks and we are going to have
free silver and gold too In fact
bretheren justice equity and love
is on our side We feed them Ac
Yes sirree said he ho said with
their herculean strength ns it were
they bavo clutched us and have
thrown around us their mighty
claim and before they lock it
around us and throw away the key
brethren we must break it into
splinnix and knock the whole Ka
poodle pell mell
Now in regard to this double
selfactingwith the assistance of
about six mulesforty horse power
agricultural promoter Til tell you
its cheap and then lookattbe time
you get on it only 75 at interest
Why just look says ho he 6ays
you can go out and throw up the
earth before you are half through
then go a fishing and read the re-
form papers more Well yes says
we butdoggon but how about the
note Why ho says says he this
hero machine is as selfsustaining
as tho Government is going to be
II well all right Pie tako one
then Old Fogy
Colony Items
Everything in tho farming line
is progressing nicely in this local
ity All are grateful for tho loto
abundant nnd timely rain and nre
rustling to moke it the more effect
ing Several farmers aro taking
in more land by clearing and mov-
ing out fences This seems to be
indispensiblo ns the population is
on the increase The wise man
was right when he said as riches
increase they increase that eat
them Indeed a good mans re
sponsibility never ceases while
life lasts and his sphere of useful-
ness does not contract so long as
his mind nnd body are both ncthe
Gray hairs aro respectable but old
age with decrepitude has fore
bodings that aro not in the least
inviting

DRAMATIC
Tho entertainment last Saturday
night was pronounced a Grand
Success Mr Ed Hart as Enoch
Arden and Miss Maymee Doffle
myre as Annin proved themselves
in every respect actors worthy of
the parts they represented Miss
Julia Daggan as Miriam acted her
part in n most becoming manner
Mr Bob Soiders as Philip Ray
acted well his part and proved his
ability equal to the difficult piece
he personated And old reliable
Arch as Dr Grammet rendered his
part in such a way that had old Dr
Grammet himself been there he
would not have known himself
from Arch Nix Lidstoue as Pe-
ter the drunkard personated his
part to that degrea of perfection
that we were at times puzzled to
know whether he was acting as a
drunkard or was really drunk
Guy Brown Henry Chamberlain
JEiLGompbell Will Campbell as
Sailors went through with their
parts without a bobble And La-
mar Lidstone and Miss Lillie
Campbell Enoch Ardens children
went through their parts in a man-
ner to merit high praise The
music furnished under the direc-
tions of Miss Ada Campbell was
delightful and reached that degree
of perfection seldom nttaiued by
amatnres Tho whole entertain-
ment was indeed splendid nnd
when we consider that it was got
ten up nnd rendered by our own
home talent and consider the dif-
ficult play rendered we hav e a
pleasant feeling of mingled pride
and surprise A large nnd attent-
ive audiance was present and as
far as we can learn all are pleased
We trnst that the Company will
keep this movement up and bo
ready for nuother entertainment
in the near future
Tho tolal receipts at the door
