There is much sentiment with
reference to Tammany in politics
It is sad that money should rule
in a republican form of govern-

If money is to be an issue then

Mr Editok Uh poor cow
punchers have got the blues from
away back Old Pide is dead old
Bed is on tho lift and old Crump
is barely able to monkey around
and will kick the bucket before
grass rises Tho poor widows and
orphans of the ordinary cowman
will bo cut off from thoir clabber
this year and what they are to
subsist on is a question It seems
that the boys will have to crawl off
of a forty dollar saddle and take
ahold of the rear ond of a ten dol-
lar yankee plow and scratch with
the balance of tho nesters for a
living which will go against the
grain However thcro is some
hopes yet You see this is elec-
tion year and if we aro as slick
with our tonguos as wo are with
the rope and iron we can probably
get a fat office Wo will go around
nmong tho good farmors and tell
them that we are dipted and died
in the blue and give them a gag
about the yankee and go home
with him and take up the baby and
brag about its beauty in presence
of the good madam so as to havo
her sympathy and if wo succeed
in this humbugery and are elected
when get in office we will make a
big steal and if Uncle Sam should
catch us in the act ho would ap-
point a committee to white wash
us This is present day democracy
You see it wont do to expose a
satisfied democrat it gives tho re
puplicans something to harp on
and if we are as successful robbing
the the treasury as we have been
mighty fine things with which to pnlHng mavricks we
bait for larger fish
On Feb 2nd at Austin a co
vention will be held for the pur

will make
good paity men and tho party will
stick to us for the more we steal
tho better able we are to keep our
party in office But if we fail in
this we will try to go i j to the
national banking business bntyou
see Uncle Sam wants ns to have
fifty thousand dollars as a start so
wo will have to open up a private
bank first with a crowbar and
and drill and we may be caught in
this but if we can get our hands
on the money the bank proprietor
will compromisa with us on the
halves You see they are conser-
vative and they think half a loaf is
better than none They say that
wo would bo able to employ good
council and we would beat them
out of tho entire sum if they went
to law about the matter
Mr Editor if wo fail in this we
are going to join the farmers al-
liance and try to push the sub
treasure demands to the front not
that it would give us any direct
relief for our ranches are already
under mortgages and wo have not
anj produce to deposit in the ware-
house and are not likely to have
AVo are uot built that way bnt if
the farmers can get some cheap
money from Uncle Sam we can
finger him out of some of it In
my humble judgement if we dont
strike a steak of luck soon wo will
see an advertisement in the News
that will read like this
Sheriff Sale I will sell to the
highest bidder in the town of San
Saba at the court house door on
the first Monday in June seven
dozen broke cowmen
I think we will see a comment
in the News from tho editor after
the sale that will read like this
The novel sale took place in our
town last Monday Col AV E D
Sons bought two dozen to use
as livery boys to give his horses
exercise during the dull season of
the year Ho is to be congratula-
ted on geting such useful men for
which he payed 8150 per dozen
Messrs bought 2 dozen for
fence riders for which they paid
SI per dozen Tho business men
of our town bought 2 dozen to use
to drive their delivery wagons for
which they payed 80 cents per
dozen one dozen of those seemed
to be a drag on tho market while
they were the largest and most
portly ones in tho outfit but it is
generally considered that cowmen
are not fit for any labor only as
such as can bo dono on horseback
or by driving Others big fat
fellows owing to thoir weight made
them undesirable however they
were bought by tho charitable men
of our town and returned to their
family
Now Mr Editor when you got
those men in your town you will
have to keop the little dudes out
terribly high prices Tho Czar I of their way if you dont they
sent instructions to the Mayor of vill bo continually forefooting
Moscowo buy at a fair price 15 them and turning them sommer
sots and will havo to keep

Away among the Alleghanies
there is a spring so small that a
single ox could drain it dry on a
summer day It steals its unob
strusive way among the hills till
it spreads out in the beautiful
Ohio Thence it stretches away a
thousand miles leaving on its
banks more thnn a thousand villa-
ges and cities and bearing on its
bosom more than half a thousand
steamboats Then joining on the
Mississippi it stretches away some
twelve hundred miles more till it
falls into the great emblem of eter-
nity It is ono of the great tribu-
taries of tho ocean which obedient
ouly to God shall roll and roar un
til the angel with one foot on the
sea and the other on the land shall
lift up his hand to heaven and
swear that time shall be no longer
So with moral influence It is tho
rill the rivulet tho ocean bound
less and fathomless as eternity
