shops and asked for barrel Of -four

Announcement.

Both Congress and the state Lesis'
'lature have adjourned, and there is
likely 70 be nothing Of specisl interest
from the outside world for some months
to come. Besides, the increase Of yell
fever reuders altogether probable
another period Of guarantees, unfayor'
able alike to mail and news facilities
AMI to business activity. Then there
is every indication, from Ito shortnsss
of the crops, etc., Of q continuance of
tho dearth of profitable enterprise
which has for some time prevailed
in this part Of Texas.
In view Of these and similar cousid-
erations, and believing 10 frank deal.
ing, we will say. that We shall issue no
more supplements to the FREE Press
till fall but shall have to be content
to continue to give all the local news.
with merely compendium Of the
geo eral news Of special interest. This
is the best our patronage will at
present permit US to do, and we are
not in . position to work without
compensation.
With the beginning Of the next VOL
ume-sarly in November-we expect
again to increase the amount of reading

oided on, which We believe will make
the paper more valuable aud satisiao.
tory to its patrons than it ever has
been, and by which We hope to be
able to hold it up permanently to this
superior mark. Meantime, we think
the great body Of our patrons. who
were furnished our enlarged paper at
cos. for some eighteen months. will
have no just reason to complain while
the few who began later, We trust will
also be satisfied in the good time
coming" At . time like the present,
We take it that people have got to bear
aud forbsar' with one another, add We
feel sure that some at least of the pat

many more who ought to be but are
not its patrons-have no cause to boast
over it 10 the matter Of forbearance
or short .oomings.

a Mean Ace.

The extra session Of the Lesisla'
tue, which fooled away . month
time, found time to DO . very mean
thing 10 the repeal Of the law requir'
ing the publication Of Delinquent tax
lists 10 the newspapers. An exchange
explains as follows:
Formerly the Law allowed the col
lector TO advertise tax sales three weeks
in . newspa per, and the people had
full and timely information. Now the
collector must post up" few written
notices that misohievous boys tear
dowr, and this 10 all. Land sharks are
the GLASS whose interests are subssryed
BY the passage OF this law, and it
should have been styled An act 70
out money into the pockets OF the land
SHARKS at the expense Of the taxpayers
OF Texas" No. the legislature would
hardly listen to. and certainly not 40.
oept, q proposition Of bribery, but how
did the land sharks argue them into
this species Of law.making that was .
direct stab at the interests OF the peo'
pie?
We cannot see Why this thing was
done, s.vs on the principle Of bargain
and sale, unless it we're out of spite to-
ward the newspapers Of the State,
against which, for obvious reasons. the
average Texas legislator cherishes .
chronic antipsthy. The newspapers
on their side have only to give these
minlons of darkness a efficiency OF
rope. and our legislative halls will soon
be rid of their presence. Such acts as
that under notice cannot fail of Civ.
iug them their quietus.
