The oplnIon prevails with the officers
Of, and the attendants upon tho county
court, that the present court room is en-
tirely too small for the purposes in
view. Order cannot be maintained, and
hence the business of the court is disturb
ed and gravely retarded. 1t Is suggested
that petition be gotten up and signed
by those interested. praying the commas
sioners TO have an archway cut between
the county court room and the assessors
ONCE, thereby making sufficient room
forthe important sessions Q fthe court; or
that another room, of greater dimensions,
be set apart for the use of the court. The
suggestion is timely and we'll founded,
aud 1t Is hoped attention will be given
tie matter az once.

the standard silver dollar is coming into

A poor farmer cannot conceal the fact
that he Is poor farmer. All his sur
roundings proclaim the verdict against
plows, fences, flelds-even his wife and
children bear silent but unmistakable
evidence against him. On the other
hand, all these things will testify favor
ably on behalfof the good farmer. Every
passer-by can read the evidence pro or
con. This fact alone ought to stimulate
every farmer TO do his best for the sake OF
his own character, as well as interest; for
he may rest assured that every passer-by
will pronounce judgment accordlngto the
evidence.

Hnsincss and tho Roads.

The trade of last week was nothing to
brag of. but will compare favorably with
that of the first week OF November, al
though Friday and Saturday were rainy
and disagreeable days and the farmers
were unable to come in. However, on
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day the receipts of cotton, pecans and
other four days during the season. More
pecans have been bought so far this sea-
son than for many years before and the
price has ranged all the way from $500 TO
IS per bushel. 1t is reported by our
largest farmers, as also by those engaged
in ginning cotton throughout this section
that about five-eighths of the cotton crop
has been gathered. From now on, the
gins will be run on full time. and should
the price advance little, the receipts
would be very large. Universal COIN
plant is made from every portion
in most fearful condition. VIII
nothing wake up our people to the neces-
sity of doing something to place our roads
in such condition that the farmer can
haul more than one bale of cotton with
four mules. Is it the decree of the prop
erty holders and business men of Austin,
that our streets shall he grown over with
grass, and that we shall hunt coons and
rabbits in the gas and water pipes, or
shall, we by turning loose dollar or two
and little public spirit, at least give the
farmers chance TO bring their products
TO our markets. Is IL not within the power
of the county TO do something in this mat
teri IL it is, the newly elected commits
sioners can cover themselves with glory,
even il they do vote the money out Of the
county treasury. The commissioners
! should give this matter their earliest at
tention. Let it be taken up as the matter
OF first importance on the calendar, and
let the principal roads from every direc-
ton as far as the county line, be put in
good condition. Good roads make short
miles, and by rendering our city easy of
access will bring prosperity. Turn loose
the money and woPkingmeD on these
roads, and for every dollar expended ten
will return TO us.

will complain that their fathers were
suffered through Ignorance TO leave
them such hard lot and cursed in
h-rilauce. Arrest the social evils OF

from the rest. 1t is worth more than
all reforms. Ii Howard laoored in the

WHY should not we for those bound in
