Timely Suggestions.
S. b. Mcbride, Sec'y.

EDITOR FREE PRESS Those who con-
template farming next year should take time
by the forelock and begin operating now.
For several reasons, LIST, because the work
stock are in better condition and stronger
than they will be two or three months hence.
md The ground is in good condition for
blowing, much better than it will be after
receiving the heavy rains during the winter,
which make it more compact. Again fall
blowing destroys great many insects their
eggs and larvae fall blowing also puts the
land in better condition to cultivate after the
crop is planted. Turning under the vegeta-
BILE matter that has accumulated during the
previous season will give it ample time to
rot before planting time III the spring there

has been ploughed thoroughly during the
fall need to be ploughed very shallow with

The County Seat Question.

We had intended this week giving
our views at some length as to why
San Marcos should be retained as the
county seat, but noticing by the pro
ceedings of u meeting, which appear
in our columns, that committee
had been appointed for the purpose
of presenting her claims before the
people, and believing their work
would supercede the necessity OF ours,
mostly if not altogether, we conclud-
ed to give them precedence and.supple,
ment their work by such remarks OF
our own, if any, as might appear to
be necessary. The exposition Of the
committee will probably appear in
our nextissue.
But we feel like saying at once just
this: We trust the impending contest
over the county seat may be gone
into and maintained to the end in
good temper on both sides. We see
no occasion for the least ill-feeling. An
honest difference of opinion, among
citizens all alike having the best in
terest of the county at large at heart,
is to be settled by vote Let all go
into the canvass resolved to take a
fair and honorable course, and to
cheerfully abide by the clear verdict
of the majority. And after that, let
the matter pass, and turn to topics
of the living present"

sort of grudge at San Marcos, since we

lately comes at her for her poor support OF
her home paper as compared with Orange.
Well, if the Tribune had made that issue
last summer, instead of the one about Flaw

knowledge that Orange was ahead. How
ever, our people we think are improving in

any one could come to such a conclusion,
from the general tenor of what we have
published on the subject. We are positive,
at any rate, that it is all mistake.
We attended one of the Majors meetings
a. San Antonio last summer, were introduced
to him, AMI heard from his owa lips the
history of his religious experiences. and how
he came to engage il his present work.
which he has followed now some half dozen
years. We were impressed by MS zeal,
candor and sincerity, and have never joined
in dispaaging him. On the contrary We
