San Saba town and county have
itnessed decided improvements
Inringthe past year Our town
as Rained new business firms
new business men the population
has increased and all dwell in
peace and harmony nnd hopes of
greater prosperity predominate
The county is blessed with bright
prospects for a successful year
STany new settlers have taken up
their abode with us and are busy
tilling the soil and so far they are
highly pleased with San Saba
county All these things unite to
place San Saba countyon a basis
of prosperity never before known
here Tho next twelve months
will bring new developments and
new enterprises and San Saba
f countys ratesof prosperity will
increase and our county will take
its place where by nature it was
intended to be in the foremost
ranks of weBternconntJBS
A county fair wonld advertise
our trade and industry It
would show the kind and quality
oE farm products Wo could dis-
play our minerals and invite for
eign capilalists to come and see for
themselves and to see our county
just as it is is the finest advertise
ment possible It would bring
money into the county and as itis
now the fairs elsewhere take money
away from the county Besides
the advantages of this local enter
prise and the financial benefits
arising there from it wonld afford
pleasure and pastime and would be
3 place of meeting for old friends
and acquaintances Let uh not

county conventions this summer
Her advantage ore she has a good
sized hall splendid hotel accom-
modation plenty of water pure air
hospitable citizens near the cen
ter of the county has good roads
leading to it and plenty of Tegeta
bles mel and bacon Therefore
should San Saba be the place for
the summer conventions

Cleveland is in the lead and mov-
ing at a uniformly accelerated
d and Hill is moving with a
ormly retarded motion There
iwsome doubt as to whether

Ed News I notice a contribu-
tor to the News signing him-
self Observer giving the locality
and surroundings of what is known
as the Harky school house His
observations and statements were
correct with the exception af a part
of the statement i j regard to the
Grange He said the Grange
was organized at the Harky school
house and met every second Satur
day The Grange was organized
at theJETarkey school house in May
28thjp875 an d meets twice a moitli
ehTdenominations wlienit began
meeting there in a year or two the
fourth and fifths Sundays were oc
cupied regularly by two branches
of Methodist Cumberland presby-
terian and Baptist The Grange
meeting twice a month necessarily
conflicted with the religious meet
ings but never with religious servi-
ces When the time came for re
ligious services the membership of
the Grange was always there and
quite an audience too Some
might ask why go back to the Har
key school house 1st because a
great portion of the membership
had moved from that community
2nd because there were no meeting
of any kind at the Harkey school
house nor has been for seven or
eight years except preaching two or
three times a year 3rd we believ
ed we would be carrying out our
declaration of purposes as we
would be seeking the greatest good
to the greatest number in so doing
So we moved back to the Harkey
school house Nov 11th 1891 since
that time there is two regular ap
pointments for religious services
One appointment fill by Eev Buck
Bomar of the C P church one ap
pointment filled by the Bev Shaw
baptist also a Sunday school orga
nized with the membership of 42
with the efficient J C Kainey sup
erintendent and the efficient James
Gauny secretary as stated by U
server so you preceive the Grange
is still carrying out its declaration
of purposes by observing in essen
tials unity in non essentials liber
ty in all things charity and the de
veloping of a better and higher
manhood and womanhood among
ourselves J F L

Pleasant weather Vegetation
is coming on rapidly The pros
pects for a crcp of small grain is
very flattering The stand of

crop was not destroyed by the cold
spell in March With no disaster
in tho fnture this crop will be
abundant
Mr T J Jackson and lady are
here from Waco visiting relatives
Mrs Jackson is a neice of Mrs
Barnett and daughter of Hon Jer-
ry Fleming who wasonce a citi
zen of San Saba county
The writer has just returned
from a trip from up the Colorado
river Found the loss in stoek to

at least threefourths of their en
tire stock
The county alliance held a har
monious session last Friday at
Bowser Bend J B Carroll presi-
dent in the chair Trust the wor

proceedings in the News

of ability will address the people
throughout San Saba county dur-
ing the month of May
1 notice in your issue of the
25th of March that Old Eusty of
Horse3hoe Bend takes the county
Judgo to task because his children
fails to get the benefit of the pub
lic money Doubtless he failed to
havs them enrolled at the proper
time Some people grumblo at
the officials and find fault with tho
teachers when the fault realy is
with their own dear selves They
fail to do their duty towards their
dear children We should see
that our childrens names are en-
rolled When the teacher is em-
ployed wo should send them to
school every day But our teacher
does not suit neighbor Smith aBd
if we had employed Shultz to
teach for us he would not have
suited neighbor Jones and so it
goes Observed
Llano continues to grow and get
bigger
The silver bill is still slumber
ing Eequiescat in peace
Cleveland is slowly bnt surely
