A NICE PRESENT,
THE BROCllO STAFF WILL
PRESENT

TO THE MOST POPULAR
YOUNG LADY IN MI-
LAM CONTY.

MARK THE CLOSE
OF AN IMPORT-
ANT EVENT.

THAT ONE IS MORE
POPULAR THAN
THE REST*
girl, Milano girl, a Cameron girl,
or where will she come from?"
That she lives within the domain
of Milam county, and the most
popular of them all, goes with-
out saying.
You are invited. Vote for
your choice, and as often as you
please.
But, you are wondering what
the present is to be? You will
find it at J. M. Pipes' jewelry
house, in the Milam Bank build-
ing, and that it is a ' 'little beau-
ty" you yourself 'will say when
you examine it.
The present is a real nice gold
watch—a lady's time piece, and
a good one—twenty year gold
case, with an American move-
ment. It is exactly the kind of
a present a young lady would
like most—one that seems akin
to themselves, beautiful as they
are beautiful, and "useful as
well as ornamental.''

and Buoknor or for Bryan, or
MoKinley, or what not. If there
could be any doubt about that
being their polioy after what Mr.
Foster has said about the gold
elements, populists, ete., sup-
porting Mr. Sayers, the action
of the Williamson county demo-
cratic executive oommittee, which
met on the 13th instant ought to
be convincing. That committee
was evidently called to meet for
the purpose of taking such ac-
tion as was within its power to
aid Mr. Sayers'candadicy. Its
chairman is a gold standard,
Clevelandite, who preserved his
'' regularity'' with the party by
voting the the ticket and who is
one of Mr. Sayers' pronounced
supporters. The committee,
after meeting, passed resolutions
practically removing every ob-
struction to the most pronounced
gold standard Palmerite or Mc-
Kinleyite participating in the pri-
maries and aiding in the shaping
of the platform and in selecting
its nominees. And, again, Far-
mer Shaw's paper of the 7th in-
stant advocates Mr. Sayers' can-
didacy upon the ground that his
nomination will enable "every
honest gold-bug, every honest
old populist, every honest mug-
wump" to "get back to the
home of his father without hav-
ing to swallow enough mortifi-
oation to make him continue
feeling that he is 'pizened.'
'In other words, these gentle-
men propose to have some more
'harmony." It will be remem-
bered that "harmony" upon a
former oocasion, when there was
some justification for it, resulted
in what our gold standard friends
called a gold standard platform.

No one will objeot to a nice
present.
The staff of The Broncho pro-
poses to make a present—and a
nice one—to some young lady in
Milam oounty.
She must be popular, of
oourse. We might, at any time,
present a similar gift, as a token
of friendship, to some one of our
young lady friends, without
using the columns of the paper,
but that would not answer the
purpose. It is our wish that
Broncho readers shall say to
whom we shall make this beauti-
ful present.
The plan is simple. Write
plainly tho name of tho young
' lady whom you wish to receive
. the presont, in the blank space
In tho coupon below, paste the
••ooupon on a postal card, mail It
to Messrs. Rather <fc Garrison,
\whero a sealod voting box will be
kept at thoir candy emporium and
•news depot, post-offioe building
in this city, under thoir care and
inspection.
A striot and careful count will
be kept and published from week
to week.
None are bar rod from voting.
Tho opinion expressed will be the
opinion of the county at largo
and It it will bo uri opinion as to
who i* the most popular young
lady in old Milam.
Already tho query wmos up in
the mind of the \vrlW "Who do
you suppose «ho will be?' * • 'Will

Mr. Foster thought it impor-
tant for some reason, to take up
spaoe and avoid meeting the
issue raised in regard to Mr.
Sayers, I presume to oall in ques-
tion my vote while a member of
the legislature upon the railroad
stock and bond law. I have
nothing to conceal and no apol-
ogies to make in regard to my
action. Along with a number of
oitizens along the route of the
projeoted road about 130 miles
long I was endeavoring to get a
railroad project on foot in the
hope capitalists and railroad
builders would take hold of it and
build it. I was seoretary and
treasurer of tho organization,
and my interest in the enterprise
amouhted to $S00 in stock and
what incidental benefit might
oome to me through the develop-
ment of the country in the event
the road should be built. My
experience in attempting to get
that ^enterprise on foot enabled
me to look at the proposed bond
measure from somewhat of a
practical standpoint. The friends
of the measure claimed for it
that it would make railroad se-
curities desirable and enable new
enterprise to be built, the very
thing the friends of our enter-,
prise desired. I thought other-
wise. 1 thought thai its real ef-
fort would be to add to tho pow-
er of tho then existing four or
five railroad systems of the State
to control future building of rail-
roads and practically stop fur-
ther railroad building for some
time to oome. Therefore, I
fought the bill. So far as I know
tho bill has not enabled the Trin-
ity, Cameron and Western rail-
road to be buiit, notwithstand-
ing more than $100,000 has been
put into the enterprise by local
people. Time, however, mayyet
demonstrate the law to bo a wise
one. For my part, I think the
law as it is, is ten or twenty years
ahead of our limes. It is the
only measure that Governor Hogg
audi over differed about, and
! Mr. Foster's attempt to make it
I appear that I ran with the crovd
j he is now training with is ridicul-
I ous in the extreme.
Mr. Foste r, also,' in his letter,
attempts to ennvey the impress •
ion that i was nut courteous and

gentlemanly in my way of taking
issue with him. He announces
that I am "the head of the mud-
slinging brigade,'' and suggests
that I ought to be ' 'muzzled.''
From the numerous letters I have
received from distinguished gen-
tlemen throughout the State in-
dorsing my letter to him, I feel
quite content to allow that letter
to speak for itself. I am decid-
edly of the opinion that Mr. Fos-
ter does not know the difference
between "mud" and truth.
And this thihg of calling upon
the public to "muzzle" men who
do not hesitate to expose "con-
fidence games" being put upon
the public by politician^ is not
now to the free silver demoorats
of Texas. "We heard about that
a great deal when Cleveland was
being denounced in the unmeas-
ured ttttms which he deserved.
Some people then, and a great
many of then are supporting Mr.
Sayers how, thought it was trea-
son for anyone to oriticise Mr.
Cleveland, and never failed to
oall for the' 'muzzle.''
