THE GREAT STATE OF TEXAS.
“We are advertised by our losing
friends." The New York American
tins this to say of “the great state of
Texas, which would make several Ku
ronean kingdoms”:
"Some Idea of the size of the state
of Texas, which ’Bob’ Ingersoll once
compared favorabl ywlth hades la af-
lorded by the new* that the authori-
ties are offering for sale 0,000,000
acres of land at. $l an nere. This is
about 9400 square miles—or more than
the area of Massachusetts, New Jer-
sey or New Hampshire.
"This Is the land over which the
range cattle of Texas have long - ’ray.
ed, and on which the fortune of the
cattle kings were founded. It Is fer-
tile, but needs Irrigation, which is
readily provided by windmill-driven
pumps, as there is nn inexhaustible
supply of water at irom twenty-five to j
fifty feet below the surface.
"Texas has concluded that she wants
more settlers and fewer steers, ami so
throws this land on the market nt a
price cheaper than the I’nlted States
government offered its magnificent do
main. Yet the ranchmen are not. to
he wholly shut out, for 12,000,000
acres of public land remain open to
them.
"The possibilities of the I>>ne Star
state are Illimitable. Her area is near-
ly four times that, of Knglaod and
VVahs, and the pnreel of land she has
Just offered for sale almost equals In
extent the whole of busy Belgium,
whoso trade Is with all the world.
"The ancient saying ‘Happy Is the
land that has the shortest history’ ap-
plies peculiarly to the jiiates of this
Union of our*. Europe, with an area
vastly smaller than the United Stales
is divided up Into almost a score of
Independent states, each with its dis-
tinct government, Its hereditary rtilers
Its expcdltures for national defense.
Through the slow ages of historic de
velopment there has been some con-
solidation Indrcd. Germany and Italy
have become united nations. France
Is no longer an aggregation of rival
duchies. England and Scotland are
federated Instead of fighting.
"But the spectacle of a great com-
monwealth like Texas being only one
of forty-live federated and united
states, paying only its pro rala shnre
of national expenses and enjoying a
local self-government ns Independent
ns though It had no sister common-
wealths, Is one to make European pub-
licists envious."
Sunday was the first of Octo-
ber, and Monday tin* bill of the
Htrgomiah Fnscita worried us
less than any other.
We have received n copy of
the Keho, published at .Justin,
tind it is n neat paper. We notice
there are two flowering mills at
•luslin, find that they both have
nice ails in their local paper.
Col. K. K. Rudolph, a good
newspaper man and an old-time
friend of the writer, has taken
charge of the (iainesville Signal,
nnd we predict that it will be a
better paper than ever before.
We are in receipt of a lot of
circulars from a big mail order
house, one of which denounces
the “trade at home bugaboo.’’
We would like to know what
would be< min of Hanger, or any

other little town, if every man,
woman and child sent their mon-
ey to Chicago for everything.
|low long would the town live,
and how much would your prop-
erty be worth? Nine times out
of ten your home merchant can
duplicate or beat the price ol
these mail order houses, let you
see the goods before you buy,
and save you the freight. And
if you are a decent sort of a man,
he doesn’t always require “cash
with order.” Did you ever get
sixty days from Chicago houses,
except possibly sixty days from
the time you sent your money
until you got your goods? Trade
with your home people; keep
home money at home.

From time to time unusual
I shipments originate in or pass
'through the Sherman yards. One
out of the ordinary was two cars
loaded with blood originating at
the Fort Worth packing houses
and destined for Memphis, where
it will be put to commercial uses,
one of which is in tin* refinement
of sugar.—-Sherman Demoeat.
