The Autioption bill is attract-

understand the bill it strikes us
that it is a ood thing and tronld
certainly prove beneficial to tho
fartuiug iwlustry The farming

relief and protection but every ou
ouragement possible The farm-
ing industry of the United States

the nation and whatever measures
the government can adopt towards

eirlj a day as possible Xo one

government that it should have re
eived that it has not beeu pro

fhe fanning industry virtunlly
furnishes if not the motor power
it least the fuel that runs our nn
tion Therefore the nation should
tender that industry a kindlier
hand and extend to it every pro-
tection and encouragement within
itb power

Some members of Congress who
are afraid of both agricultural and
commercial constituencies think to
deceive farmers by a protended
support of the antioption bill
To this end it will perhaps be
amended in the Senate returned
to the House and lost in tho shuf-

between labor nud production on

gambling on the other That pro

A newspaper has other fish to
fry than tugging forever at the
front of an unprofitable attempt to
make a progressive community
out of one that is torn asunder by
petty jealousies and little hatreds
that do no man good Intelligent
people know what a town is when
they see its newspaper and there
is no UhO for a newspaper to try to
make people believe it is publish

ive community without its patron-

uhen it serves or lose our vent ure
The tide is flowing and the cur-

portunity launch out on the tide
of prosperity keep in the middle
of the stream and follow the flow
lug currents of progress to deeds
of greater fame and by this single
effort place San Saba on an equal

little while longer tho tide will

Ed News An article in the
News of the lGth iust advises the
reformers to lay down their weap-
ons go to test and await further
developments Considering tho
question at issue and tho princi-
ples we are contending for it would
bo impolitic and cowardly to say
the least for tho Peoples party to
lay down their arms and leave the
field after tho first battle
To illustrate two armies are iu
the field one is an army of inva-
sion whoso leaders evidently be
lieve that the common people havo
jiriih hftth y rrbifMiftlHrT
respeef except tho right to live
work and pay tribute to the money
kings The other is an army of
volunteers who have taken up arms
to assert their rights aud defend
their homes against the encroach-
ments of usurpers and oppressors
You aro right Mr Editor in
your surmises that the people went
into this reform movement for the
betterment of their condition and
not for tho sake of a party It was
tho only practical protest we could
make against misrule and class
legislation and I believo it will
have a good effect The good
seed that was planted will grow
and bear fruit then vhy should
we disbaud our forces What
guarantee have we that the Demo-
cratic party will give us the polit-
ical reform demanded by the mass-
es of the people If we are to
judge of the future by tho past we
have no hope of anj measures of
relief from the next administra
tion that will be of auy benefit to
the masses of tho people if any
measures of relief are granted it
will b9 for the sako of policy or un
der pressure
Thereforo I would ay to tho
Populists keep in line show a sol-
id front keep a close watch on Con-
gress keep a record of tho bills
introduced and mark the men who
work against tho peoples interests
But to the mon who have espoused
thepeoples cause and who nre
fighting our battles and mantain
iug our cause against monopoly
aud the money kings Let us give
them all tho help and encourage-
ment we can no matter what par-
ty they may belong to
The Peoples party is here to
6tay and we will not disbaud or
rest from our labors until all our
demands have passed into law
in tho ratio of 1 to 100 taking the
Uuiten States over Then because
this 100 refuses to grant tho whims
of this 1 or because the 100 do
not see proper to iujuro themselves
to the profit of tho 1 the 100 are
called usurpers and oppressors
But this is rather n loose use of
tho words from the fact that the
democrats and republicans havo
already been classed as one
army and according to the Popu
lists view tho reins of the govern-
ment have simply changed hands
but in principles remain the same
then as either tho republican or
tho democratic party has held tho
reins of government for tho last
forty years and there has never
been a Populist party until the last
campaign then upon what basis
does tho writer establish the fact
that tho so called army of inva
sion is au army of usurpers And
since tho army of invasion is
made np of the common people
at least an outlaudlishly big ma
jority of them how can they be
oppressors If tho 100 made
laws that did not effect themselves

pressors but the 100 aro effected
by the very sarao laws that effect
thei Therefore the only teason
that we can see for calling the 100
oppressors is because the 100 do
not bow to and grant uncouditiou
ially the demands of tli8 1
A little fnrther down he says
What guarantee havo tre that tho
Democratic party will give us the
political reform demanded by the
masses of the people We are
sorry to disappoint Mr Burns but
we are forced to saygthat the Pop
ulits have not even the slightest
guarantee that they will get the
political reform they demand
Why Because the last election
speaks in tones far louder than it
is within our power to proclaim
that the Populist party does not
represent the masses of tho peo
ple but that the Democratic par
ty is the true representative of the
ranssses as that party wns sup
ported by an overwhelming major-
ity nt tho last election Notwith-
standing the jnniiN mid Our ii 1
false nccusati his of lif Pipuh ts
party nud the teriilm uoj of
republicans with which it had to
battle yet the mnshes of the peo-
ple with the exception of aditBt
isfied few rallied to thebupportof
the Democratic party and gave it
such a glorious victory as hns not
been witnessed in 25 years Yea
it may be truthfully said such a
victory as has never been known
before in the history of the United
States Then upon what basis
does tho Populist party claim to
be the reprentativesof the masses
of the people Yet a little fur
ther on he says If any measures
of relief aro granted it will be for
the sake of policy or under pres
ure Yes Bro Burns is right hero
The Democratic party will doubt-
less grant measures of relief
through policy of pleasing the
great mnsses of people that sup-
ported that party and meas-
ures of relief will be granted un
dor pressure of its own tremen-
dous weight But from tho man
ner in which Bro Burn3 used the
exprosston through policy or un-
der pressure wo imagine that
he meant through policy of pleas-
ing the Populist or under the pres-
sure of that party If this is what
is meant Bro Bums might gain n
thought or two by meditating upon
the fable of the gnat on the bulls
horn
If Bro Burns has anything else
to say on this subject wo shall be
pleased to furnish space
If San Saba prospers the next
twelve months as she has for the
last twelve she will bo a city worth
reading about aud she will do it
