FRANK J. CHENEY,
Sworn to before me and sub-
scribed in my presence, this 6th
dayeof December, A. D., 1886.
Edwin 'Schuhard closed up his had lived neighbors for years,
known as “governor of Trick-
ham” he could hardly have con-
cealed his identity for an hour
in any hamlet of Texas. The evi-
dence is too familiar to most of
our readers to justify a repetition
here.
The case ereate i quite a good
deal of interest among the local
people as well as those from
Trickham. All day long during
each of the three days of the trial
the court room was filled with
eager listeners.
In addition to the district at-
torney the firm of Woodward &
Baker, who had ben the legal
rd risers of the deceased, were
retained by the prosecution. The
lawyers for the defense were
Snodgrass & Dibrell, and Critiz

There is an ordinance against
leaving your horse standing on
the stretets without anchoring
him to a hitch post. This ordin-
ance is being flagrantly violated
every day. A run-away team,
people injured and perhaps killed
and somebody will be responsible.
A hint to the wise is sufficient.

Another inch and a half of rain
would replace the smile that is
growing a little dim again. It is
remarkable the amount of boost-
ing necessary to keep that opto-
mistic spirit alive in some people.

not lengthen life nor hurry .the

The building of the big irriga-
tion dam on the Colorado river
and placing the water within
reach of the farmer is a million
dollar proposition and until men
with the million dollars can be in-
terested and made to see that it
is a feasible proposition, there will
be nothing doing on the big
scale. The men with the mon-
ey are becoming interested, as will
be seen from a news item appear-
ing elsewhere in this paper. We
are going to irrigate.

There is not a country on the
face of the earth that does not
have reverses, and is free more or
less from some objectionable fea-
tures. If such place could be found
we would all be breaking our
necks to get there. Take the aver-
age life time and figure back
and you will find no country that
excells our own healthy and beau-
tiful Central West Texas when w
take into consideration all the ad-
vantages and disadvantages. Its
true that we have had our revers-
es during the last two or three
years but there is a great day com
ing. and when we again get “in
clover” it will be the other coun-
try that will be up against it from
the effects of some calamity. Only
a few years ago we all remember
that the weathy black land belt
went through trying times on ac-
count of the boll wevil. At that
time this country was prosperous
and in full bloom. Today there
are sections of country that have
been placed on the charity list on
account of storms, fires and
floods. It seems best to the ruler
of this universe that He adminis-
