The official count of the Maine
election will not be mude until in
January when the lejfisUture con
venes.
Governor Cornell ot New
York ban been sick of late. lie he-
came Indisposed as did many other
Republican after the Maine elec
tion. -
While Gen. Weaver in attempting
to serve Republicans his congress
ional district is being contested by a
Republican. Xo objection ia made
and it dhows that a trade in un-
doubtedly at the bottom of all ot it.
And yet the ugliest part of th affair
as it affects Weaver i that it now
appears he will be unable to enrry
out the contract.
Don Cameron who i now in
Washington admits that the Repub-
licant' hope of success in this cam-
paign hang on a slender thread. If
the business classes can be made to
believe that the country will go to
smash in the event of Garfield's de
feat the Chicago nominees will
stand a fair chance of success but if
the "scaring" programme should
1811. a cnange win oe inevuaui".
It is expected that Jlr.T. II. Bow
man will resign the position of chief
clerk in the Department of State in
December next which office he has
filled siuco 1874. Should his friends
see proper to present his name for
appointment to the position of Sec-
retary of State which position it is
understood will be vacated by Col.
Templeton. the Statesman will
give him a cheerful and hearty sup-
port. -
Hon. John Hancock It was rx-
pected would have been back home
by this time to commence a canvass
of the fifth congressional districtf
but having been invited by the na-
tional committee to make a few
speeches in Ohio between now and
the 12th and having agreed to do
so ho will not bo home before the
middlo of the month. Ho will then
devote himself to the canvass here
and will visit portions of the dis
trict where he can do the most good
The Age calls it as the States
man said idle talk to presume that
the United States senatorship be-
longs to any one man. The office
belongs to the people of Texas and
they will dispose of it says the Age
as it is thought best. This rule did
not hold good however when Gen
Maxey waa made Senator. Only
eleven members of the legislature
really favored his election and yet
this is not said in disparagement of
Senator Maxey.
Next Tuesday is election day in
Colorado when a representative in
Congress is to .be chosen. On the
following day Wednesday Georgia
holds its election for governor and
other state officers. On Tuesday
the 12th of October comes the great
struggles in Indiana and Ohio for a
governor and state officers a legisla-
ture and members of Congress in
Indiana and for minor state officers
legislators and congressmen in Ohio.
On the same day an election is to be
held in West Virginia for state offi-
cers and a legislature.
American ship interests have
been allowed to decline bo much un-
der the unhealthy legislation of the
Republican party that It costs twice
as much now to build a ship in
America as in England. A .New
York sen captain lately wanted a
ship built and .the same plans pre-
sented to Amercianand English ship
builders' were bid npon with a differ-
ence of two to one. The ship would
have cost him on this side the Atlan
tic $200000 while on the other side
he paid $100000. The tale is told by
the ship -builders who waited upon
Gen. Hancock a few days ago.

WEEKLY
THE MTCATION IS I ULAN A.
The Washington Star aaya it is
stated by Democrats that uier have
made the most complete aiiiut-ejfo-tion
poll of voters ever iuuwa in
Indiana and that it cnowa relia-
ble Democratic majoritt wi over
7000 for the Democratic Ucaet. while
the canvass of the Itepuoucaiis. it is
said indicates a majority ot MX) for
their party. At the last eteruon In
1878 the Grecnbackera poueO. 89.448
votes and it is beyond ute ability
of any Indiana politician u predict
how the doubtful vote wui ne cavt
at the coming election. The Demo-
crats lost the state in 186U. ont car-
ried it in 1862. The next Democratic-victory
was won in lhVO bv a
majority of 25.VI out ot a total vote
of over 317.000. At the Ocmur-.r elec-
tion of 1872 the Democrats won by
a majority of 1148 but oetore No-
vember the Greeley movement went
to pieces and in the latter month
Gen. Grant had a majoniy oi vl.098.
In 1871 the Democrats regained the
ground they had lost oy tne sup-
port of Mr. Greeley anu earned the
state by 17252 majority ou oi a to-
tal vote of 847000. In the. t October
election of 1876 the Demix-raia won
by a plurality of 6513. TUat vear
was the first .appearance ui the
Greenback party In tua tamest
and it cast a vote of 12.710. Un-
dismayed by the Octooer de-
feat the Republicans maintain
ed a stubborn fight ana 1'ilden re
ceived only a plurality ot bol.1. but
in the November election ot the
same year the GreenDaca vote fell
off from 12710 in Octooer. to 95S3
showing that over 2000 oi mat party
did not vote at tho presidential elec
tion. In 1878 the Democrat won by
a plurality of 18786 tho trteenoack-
ers casting 89.448 votes. This vear
the Greenback vote is an uncertain
quantity and therefore tue unrelia
bility of calulations as to me result
of tho coming election. Tae mana-
gers of tho Republican ana Demo-
cratic stato canvasses agrtsa mat the
Greenback voto will lau off this
year from the figures ot leva. The
Republicans assert that ine riisrup
tiou of tho third party will largely
increase their vote. Tue-u estimate
is that two-thirds of tho trieenback
voto of 1878 was cast by uiasNtisfled
Republicans; that the return ot busi
ness prosperity has 6hown mesemen
tho folly of their past course and
this year thev will renuu to their
former political organisation and
vote the Republican ticatit. The
Democrats while admitting the de
cline of th third party vote deny
that this will materially atrengthen
either the Republicans or Demo
crats. They say that tue tetnrning
wanderers from the GreeuoacK fold
will be pretty equally uividod be
tween the two partiee ami claim
that the Democratic piurantv will
be increased several tuouaand by
recruits from Republican i ana's who
are brought over" by tuo nomina-
tion of Hancock. As tuuwn. the
Greenbackers cast over aiJUO less
votes in November 186. than
in October yet at we presi-
dential election tho Democratic plu-
rality was increased. Thu may
have been caused by ine jart that
the result of the Octoort election
had shown the RepuotuanA that
they were almost witnout nope in
contending for the electoi at vote of
the state. In tho state election cf
1878 the figures go to snow mat the
increase in the GreenDaca vote did
come largely from the ivepablicans
as the vote of the latter feu off more
in proportion than that oi Demo-
crats who more than doumed their
plurality of 1876. Tfie aiest esti
mates seem to fix the meenback
vote of Indiana in the coui.ng elec
tion at from '-0000 to -o.UUO. two-
thirds of their voting strength.
The Republicans and isetnocrate
have party lines distinctly drawnf
and it is evident that tne regulars an
each side stand firm auu true to
their respective principle . out there
are 80000 or 40000 vof t-i in the
state who are not enhstett nnd6r
either banner of the twv opposing
political armies and it la this ele-
ment that is being so uuuv con-
tended for. 'Those few voters com
paratively hold the political destiny
of the 6tate and possibly um country
within their power witn m prob-
abilities in favor of Demouacv and

DEMOCRATIC STATE
AUSTIN TEXAS THURSDAY OCTOBER 7 1880.
HOU CCD FOB THE CAPITALIST.
Wonders will probably cea&e when
the capitalists of Austin put their
hands down into their pockets and
expend f 100000 in Industries cred-
itable to the community in which
they live. As stated some time ago
it was their Intention to pay in $100-
000 and with it build a cotton com-
press and a cotton seed oil mill. The
Statesman came to their relief and
demonstrated that $60000 put into
a compress wond be almost dead
capital and that $40000 in an oil
mill would probably with good
management give only a tolerable
return upon the investment. Wc
were doubtful at the time
as to the Statesman's influence in
extending advice upon these sub-
jects but emboldened and encour-
aged by the fact that not a dollar
was paid in after the Statesman
commented upon the character of
such investments in this community
we feel encouraged to again urge in
partour views as to the establishment
of a cotton factory at Austin. The
Graniteville mills and the Vaucluse
mills at Graniteville South Caro-
lina are among the very bet man-
aged manufactories of the South.
The capital stock is $600000. upon
which a large amount of bonds
have been issued money derived
upon them having been used in
building and improving. In these
two mills are operated 34264 spin-
dles and 884 looms which convert
into cloths 1000 bales of cotton per
month and there are employed in
both mills 775 operatives. These
two mammoth mills are moved by
the waters of a very insignificant
little creek collected into large
ponds and conveyed therefrom
to tho turbine wheels in a manner
to create a vast deal of power sup-
plying for one mill 600 and for tho
other 300-horse power. Tho goods
are 3-4 C. and 7-8 R. R. shirting
4-4 A. A. and 4-4 L. L. sheeting and
Improved 7-8 drills and S. S. drills.
The dally production of these mills
is 41600 yards of tho above men
tioned cloths. At the Graniteville
mill during the two weeks ending
January 10 165616 pounds of cotton
were consumed which turned out
140773 pounds or 489000 yards of
cloth. At the Vaucluse Mill during
the same time 70788 pounds of cot
ton was consumed which produced
56587 pounds or 197000 yards of
cloth. The cotton which was used
daring this time was purchased at
ll.f2 cents per pound. The coet
therefore for the cotton usod at
both mills during thoso two weeks
was $27699.51. Tho cloth produced
from this cotton at both mills was
686000 yards the price for which in
the market at that time was over
eight cents per yard. Calling it
eight cents a yard the value of the
cloth produced was $54880or within
a small fraction of double the value
of the cotton. In other words the
process of manufacture increased
the valuo of the raw cotton 100 per
cent. In obtaining and presenting
these points for the instruction of
those who may feel interest in mat-
ters suggested we have been influ-
enced by a desire to give information
that cannot be disputed. The fig
ures may be looked into with tho
greatest care and they will thereby
only convince inquirers that what
wc have said about cotton manufac
ture is true. Suppose to start with
these capitalists were to use their
money to pay cash for buildings and
machinery reserving a small
worktng fund and were to put in
operation only 5000 spindles and 150
looms what might be expected of
the investment. The estimate of
daily outlay on expenses and upon
return might be made as follows :
To TTO0 pounds cotton 270 00
To B0 operatives 120 00
Dally running expense.
By 8000 yards cloth 8e . . .
.3KOO0
C40 00
Premium on manufacture $250 00
In making this result the average
price for cotton and the minimum
price of goods Is used. The estimate
on labor is too liberal since the
operatives would" be two-thirds
women and girls and money saved
on this item would pay the small ex
pense of baling and boxing goods.
But let us make a lnore liberal esti-
mate and admit that $50 more per
day will bo needed than the
above figures call for still we
have $200 per day left as a
premium on manufacture. With
800 working days in tho year this
gives a surplus of $60000. The cot-
ton handled in one year at such a
mill would be 1620 bales valued at
$81000 and the South Carolina mills
show that the premium on manufac-
ture is double the value of tho rot-
ton. From the Colorado river there
could be collected with sufficient
outlay ten times the power taken
from this little creek in South Caro-
lina and the expense of obtaining
power for a mill running 150 or
300 looms would be smalL Are we
to go along forever without an en-
terprise to build up and maintain
Austin or will our capitalists give
us this little mill as a starter? If
they will do this in twenty years
thereafter there will be 3000 looms
turning ont cloth on the banks of
the Colorado river and Austin mills
would then annually convert 24300
bales of cotton worth $1215000 into
36000000 yards of cloth worth $2-
880000. To demonstrate the value
of mill in the midst of our cotton
fields and to show the value of the
Colorado river water for manufac
turing purpose it is only necessary
for us to have this nucleus around
which would ia a few short years
cluster Industries giving employ-
meat to thousands of laborers and
supplying means of sustenance to as
many people as now inhabit our
city. The work is graad. Who will
inaugurate It?

DECIDEDLY KrONTAXEOr.
Dick Hubbard must not be de-
nied tho right of free 6peech away
off in Indiana where ho is laboring
for the Democratic cause. It gives
him consolation far away from
home and amidst strangers and he
must be allowed to indulge himself.
He is a big man corporally and oth-
erwise and to object to his appear-
ing to advantage along side the big
guns of the country is wrong. The
truth about it is Hubbard is a greet
orator. He bursts forth spontane-
ously like a volcano and a perfect
lava of words fall in all directions
and in all places. He is a human
Vcuvius belching forth gas and
explosiveness and his words have a
natural brilliancy glowing at times
most strikingly and often as start-
ling as wondrous. He feels his
power and hence it was that he told
a Courier-Journal reporter that he
was going back to Texas to speak to
the colored voters and that half
of them would vote for Hancock.
He was in one of his grandeloquent
humors . after he had electrified an
audience in Indianapolis and when
a Sentinel reporjer followed him to
his hotel to learn if possible some of
the distinguished gentleman's real
political history he found the cx-
Goveruor in u disposition to com-
ninnicate on this point l'art of the
interview went as follows :
Reporter When wero vou first
elected governor of Texas
Gov. Hubbard I was first elected
in 1873 by 53000 majority being the
first Democratic governor elected
eince the war and I succeeded a
very vile Radical administration of
our state. In 1875 I was re-elected
by over 100000 majority. : I held the
office for a term and a half. : At the
last state couveution I positively de-
clined a renomination as my busi-
ness relations were of such a charac-
ter that I could not afford it." .
7OT ABSOLUTELY VOU SALE.
Much dissatisfaction it is said
prevails among New York Republi-
cans about tho alliance between
Chairman Jewell and Gen. Weaver
the Greenback nominee for tho pres-
idency. It is known that the Re-
publican party has been compro-
mised by this alliance and that its
money has been wasted with noth-
ing but" disaster in return. When
LGcn. Weaver stumped Alabama and
Arkansas in support of a Republican-Greenback
fusion supported by
Jewell's committee it waa looked
upon as a necessary surrender of
principle to expediency but when it
became evident that the fusion In
Alabama and Arkansas was merely
a banding of a few political camp-
followers to plunder the national
committer the waste of Republican
means wae .-everely ciitii-irel. Tl-
Maino con:--t developed to biuh
tho Republic i.n- ainl'iln iinpurehas-
able Greenbueki r-.that. (i?n. Wea-
ver had sold oui sit the imitiplihtf
and reversiomm inic-r-eis of him
self as a candidate i'.flus puny to
give direct aid to the rlr(!nn uf
Garfield. Under that contract Gen.
Weaver was sent to Maine to defeat
fusion but there as in the South it
was disaster that- - followed him
There is a continuing contract to op
pose fusion in Maine on the electoral
ticket and Weaver will do his best to
defeat the only four electors he could
possibly receive in any state of tho
Union. Ho has also contracted to
take the stump in Indiana in favor
of ho Republicans of that state
Having exhausted himself unavail-
ingly to save Maine for the Blaine
ticket by denouncing fusion he and
Blaine will soon be on the stump in
Indiana teaching different doc-
trines but urging the election of the
same ticket with equal fervor. In
Indiana Weaver will be unable to
deliver goods he has sold and the
unmarketable portion of his flock
are withdrawing from the sue
tion. while leaders are revolt
ing and striking at thohe who
are trading them oft' for cost
or approved political ' promises
In a paragraph elsewhere ref
erence is made to thus Greenback
disaffection. The truth about it is
Democracy is ahead and a great
many politicians are trying to catch
np with it.

seen in that "city. The Stir in an ex
tended report say? :
Tho enthusiasm wa unbounded
reaching a pitch hardly anticipated
even bv the moi sau-fuine members
of tho various committees. The re
sult was that upward of 50.000 men
participated in i he torchlight parade
w In I e a quaricr oi a minion person
lined the thoroughfares thrrMiph
which it pasted of eougregatrd in
Tamilian v Hall and around th
sneaker o" stands. It was a great out
pouring of the masees in honor of
the IK'inocratie conuiuaies ior me
Pre6idencv and Vice Presidency of
the United States and it will occu
py a prominent place in the luntory
of the citv for many years to come.
After last night's -demonstration
there can be no doubt as to how the
EniDire State will vote in the No
vember election. The citv will roll
up such a tremendous majority for
the Democratic ticket that it will
completely swamp any Republican
vote that can be secured in the rural
districts of the state: The celebra-
tion of the completion of the At-
lantic cable and the receptions that
were extended to the Prince of
Wales and the Grand Dnke Alexis
were great in their way but they pale
into insignificance when compared
with the great Hancock and English
rally. ' r
Tammany was founded by Demo
crats in 1789 and never in its his
tory has such enthusiasm prevailed
among Democrats. There ia perfect
harmony and it promises victory. '
The Mexia Ledger Is responsible
for this: "The miserably verdant fa-
natic who edits the Galveston Jour-
nal mvs it seems as if Robert Mo-
Cormick and Lubbock are willing
to have it known that they tske a
drink and seem to feel no shame for
the crime of doing so. That writer
is either Briggs or one of the same
ilk. We advise the women of Gal-
veston to watch hlaj."
TUn PROGRESS OF TEXA.
The New York Herald in touch-
ing upon Sentor Conkling's refer-
ence to the probable future political
power of the South to be derived
from Texas says :
Senator Conkling. in his speech at
the Academy of Music the other
evening touched npon one of the
most important questions in our po-
litics in allusion to the inequality of
senatoral representation and to the
political possibilities of the immense
state of Texas. The latest exact
statistics of the changes In its inte-
rior are of especial Interest in con-
nection with this subject They in-
dicate the rapid approach of a dav
which is inevitable when a new al-
lotment of power must give to the
population of tho Soutbweet an
enormous influence proportionate to
its destined destiny and its present
extent. No other part of the North
American continent unites such
great natural advantages of soil cli-
mate interior navigation and water
power with cheapness and freedom
of domain. It has been a misfor-
tune in the history of Texas that a
reputation for lawlessness has clung
to it so long after its admission into
the Union as to retard the inflowing
tide of immigration. This has been
the effect of its situation upon the
borders of the country from which
it forcibly separated and tho min-
gling ot Mexicans Indians and
Americans in a haphazard struggle
for the greatest advantage. These
influences however have grown
much weaker since the close ot
the war and in one department
alono the new census shows that
the . people are fast advancing
in thrift and in civilization.
The school-attending population in
1877 was 102981. In 1880 but three
years later it is 253350 more than
twice as great. This is a significant
index of the tendency of the great
1 commonwealth and shows that it is
advancing in tne rtgnt direction. It
will remove the chief doubt that has
rested in the mind of many an in-
tending resident deterring him from
fulfilling his purpose. With such an
educational development and the
f)rincely endowment possessed by
ts public echools in unoccupied
lands it will be impossible for the
name of Texas lon to remain a
synonym for semibarbarity and that
its inheritance of empire should
long be delayed.
Hon. Thomas F. Bayard was one
of the speakers at tho great Demo-
cratic ralley in New York on the
23d. In referring to the political
condition of the South the dis
tinguished statesman said:
Republicans raise tho crv.of the
solid South and declare it must bo
antagonized by a 6olid North. But
if the South be solid for those
things the North needs and desires
then all reasons for antagonism is
gone and the solidity of both sec
tions for the same end and purpose
is surely demanded w hat does tho
South as a section 6eek to do which
the Norlh should feur? If I be-
lieved the success of the Democratic
party imperiled uationnl honor or

our iioertv. l protxse to lay the
foundations broad and wide and
deep in the hearts of our country'
men and to assist no party
organization wnicn is tainted
with sectionalism. The South
ern States are solid for local self-
government in each state nninter-
iered with by extraneous power.
i his is what eacn northern state in
sists upon under the constitution
and actually enjoys. They aro solid
in asking tnat tne tasks of govern
ment in all its higher positions shall
not be committed to the hands of
ignorance and weakness but to in-
dividuals rendered competent by ed-
ucation and fitted by natural quali
ties to perform tne i unctions. The
North seeks to do this and votes
down incompetence and ignorance
whenever it can. The South is solid
in seeking advancement in all that
tends to its material prosperity. The
South is solid ia responding to
friendly treatment and kindlv sym
pathy with mutual confidence and
support and responding to contume-
ly and villification and injustice with
indignation and resentment. Ibis is
but human nature and they would
be less than men if they wero not
true to themselves 'When a man
feels resentment and conceals it
then beware or him. The South is
solid for retrenchment reform econ-
omy and good government state and
federal and should not the North be
also1 solid in these things? - The
South in the great crisis of 1876-77
was ' solid in lavor ot . tne com
pletion of the electoral count
under the law and opposed to
throwing the country into confusion
and ; the. hands of a military con
spiracy. Was that solidity injurious
to Northern security? In 1880 tho
South is solid in favor of the election
to the presidencv of ono of the
most distinguisned captains in com
mand of the armed hosts that put
an end to an nope of separate and
independent government of the
Southern States. Is this a cause of
apprehension to the North? But
the South is also solid against a po
litical party tnat has never ceased to
hold its people up as ruffians and
murderers and rcpudiators; that
has sympathized only with those
who misruled and beggared it and
which refused to tolerate that manly
independence which is the birthright
of American freemen and without
which thev would be unworthy of
respect ine cry or a solid south l
but an attempt to renew unpatriotic
animosities and an unworthy resort
of desperate partv managers. The
South is not solid for anything the
riortn need spprehend and Its solid
ily has no feature and no result un-
friendly to the prosperity of the en
tire union.

In his speech
September 28d.
in Tammany Hall
Senator lien Hill of
Georgia said :
I approach the issues s a Southern
man and ask : Is it wise is it just is
it patriotic to tell the people of oue
section of this land that they must
hate those of the other? The Re-
publican party says it is wise and pa-
triotic but they do not believe their
own assertions. I'util recently I
cherished the hope that such ati is-
sue would never again be presented
to the American people. It seems
to rue singular tfiiit the argument
Fhould be advauci d by the Repub-
licans that the Democratic party
should not be trusted because the
South chooses lo adhere to tlmt
party. ; People who are ruled by
reason and intelligence and not .by
evil passions do not believe that the
serious charges made against us are
true.' We all belong to the same
country our destinies are the same.
We must stMUfl or fall together.
There is one fact which Republicans
of intelligence Roscoe Couklhig
included do not appear to grasp.
It is simply this. There existed at
ono time a South that advocated re-
bellion and slavery. That South is
dead. Tho South which now exists
is a believer in full liberty
and in the Union of these
States. We urc cdncatiug 70-
000 colored children iu our schools.
The colored pevplo havi found from
bitter experience that the. Democrats
of tho South are better friends aud
more worthy of trunt than the
Radical carpet- baggers of t he Xort h
Whoso motto is to rob the Southern
whites of all they enu. and the poor
blacks of all they have. Is ir any
wonder that the darkies turned
around and became Demoernis?
('oukllng' Neellonal War.
We have taken for granted that
tho Southern property-holder is the
same kind ot human being as the
rest of us and has to be conciliated
by the same met hods. Wo have
thought therefore that the denun-
ciatory tone of Republican platform
and speeches and articles ever since
1860 was. as a matter of practical
politics n great mistake ami that
with more forbearance of spei i h and
more blindness to fault- which wt re
in a moving w orld plainly tempo-
rary anil a little livelier perception
of virtues on our part the owners
of the comiiitrcia!. linancial nd in-
dustrial interests at the South might
have been largely Avon over into
sympathy with if not active support
of the party at the North w hich is.
in our eves unque-fiomibh- th
guardian of those interests all over
the country. The policy which has
been pursued however aud ot
which Mr. Conkling has been one
of the foremost supporters has been
that of organizing through Fed
eral agents the non-taxpayers ot
tho South against the taxpayers in a
political partv ana prt-nciuug to
them at every election hatred and
distrust of the verv persons to whose
skill and intelligence the South must
mainly look for the revival of her
material prosperitv. The mischief
thus dono we believe to be incalcu
lable and speeches like Mr. (Ynk
ling's wnicu uave uot even tiie ex
cuse of fauatical ignorance cau not
but ' greatlv aggravate it. because
they convince the Southerners that
the Republican party is determined
to hate and pursue thuu whether
thev present themselves ns tnsnav-
ers or non-taxpapvrs. If the Repub-
lican uartv should father 1 ho Sena
tor's doctrine that those sections of
the country which have most capital
and manufactures and the best mines
ought to have most political power
and that the distribution ot tin?
power as made by the Federal Con
stuution on tlic basis partlvo-t poi.u
lation and partly of historical unity
is iu practice dangerous and unfair
it will insure lt-elt as deep and swift
damnation an overtook the Federal

The attempt of the grandees of
Spain to substitute uorse. racing as
the popular amusement iustead of
bull lighting tins laued despite the
powerlul support tb movement r'
ceived Jt appears tnat while the
Spanish people welcomed llie horse
racing and enjoved it they cmuc to
the conclusion that there was no rea
son why they should not indulge in
both the old ami the new sport. Sf.
they now vary the trials of speed be
tween last horses with desperate
contests betwtenmeu uudbul!-. At
San Sebastian the fashionable water
ing place of Spain the bull lighti
draw tbousandx ol spectators. huiI
the danger of these eucouuters
are relished with as much apparent

cent occasion when the favorite to

by an infuriated bull uutil it was be
lieved be was killed the ladies left
their seats in the arena and crowd-
ing around the injured man. after he
had been rescued man v of them
kissed him upon the forehead as a
mark of their admiration. As long
as the Spanish ladies thus recognize
bull fighting it will be deilicult to
crush out the custom.

not come on here to starve. Wanted

Ten thousand men willing to work
could come to this countrv just now

Cheyenne has be n luakiny these
