Successful sheen Rnisin.

From one of our Coleman City ex-
changes of recent date We get the fol-
lowing: Mr. James Cannon, brother To
f. J. Cannon, cashier Of the City
national bank, at Dallas, has been Wis
ting Mr. George Mahuncy this week,
with a view of locating ii sheep rancho
When he learns of M Mahoney's sue
cess, having seen his extensive rancho,
he, no doubt, will become considerably
worked up over the result. Mr. George
W. Mahoney informed us this week that
he had built q sheep shed on his rancho,
eight miles south of town, 2S by about 3Gu
feet, perhaps $50, We do not remembe,
the exact figures Mr. Mahoney is one
of Dallas old bankers hut he really al
mires the sLeep business more than the
banking business. He cares we'll for
his stock as the large shed indicates.
He says he cannot risk Il hillside rs
some do. There is something like Ger
tainty III any business, and building
sheep sheds Is similar 10 having houses
aud goods insured. We do not think
there is another such a shed or rancho
IN the state Many persons here Will
remember Mr.. Mahoney, who made his
headquarters here for some time. He
had quite an extensive farm and rAucLe
splendidly improved a short distance
from this city which We believe he ex-
changed for IA part of the extensive
flock OF sheep lie now has. Mr. Ma
honey left Chicago with the intention Of
making money IN Texas and he has been
singularly successful, for all of which
he can credit his judicious Use of what
capital he mad and.that thorough atten-
tion to his pursuit of which the article
above speaks. Such men as Mr.. NJ. are
not only benefit to Texas in them
selves, but their success induces others
Of like energy to come into the state.

We have before us circular of one of
the most prosperous and best managed
financial institutions of the United
States, proving that as the country il
general prospers, the banker, merchant,
artisan and farmer endeavOrs to provide
against the contingencies of the future
by investing small amounts III corpora
tions of solid worth and approved record.
Insurance, whether fire or life, is more
sought after now than few years since,
and the strongest and most liberal com
panies have increased their business be-
yond expectation. The Equitable life
insurance company issued new policies
in 1881 amounting to S45,000,000, an in
crease over 1880 of S10,O60,000, making
a total amount of outstanding risks OF
over S200,000,000, an increase over 1880
of S24,000,00O. The assets of the Equi-
table January ! were $44,0O0,00G, with a
net Surplus of S9,500G00 In connection
with this We notice that the Equitable
paid during the year, for death claims
and maturod endowments, S2,750OO0,
and in addition to this sum paid for
,lapsed or surrendered policies $4,000, 600
From the above statement we are not
surprised at the progress the Equitable
is making in this state, as it is sufficient
guarantee for any one desiring genuine
life insurance

At the Atlanta exposition there were
many fine exhibits from this city, and
among them, towering above everything
in the building, was the magnificent
centennial pavilion of the American
sewing machine company. Notwith-
standing the fact, there were IA great
many machines competing for the grand
prize, which WAS
GOLD MEDAL,
If was unanimously awarded to the
American sewing machine company.
The company also received two orhcr
awards for excellence, making three III
all. and it Is one more award than was
granted to any sewing machine. No
medal OF any kind was given to any ma
chine, excepting the grand gold medal,
awarded to the American. The follow
ing official document, as received from
the judges, speaks for itself

part of the known world.
They possess more good points than
any other machines, and are, in fact,
just what the company claims they are.
THE BEST IN THE WORLD.
There are many macnlncs made by
this company, Tor different kinds of
work, among the number the most no.
tlceable are the No. machine for family
use, in many handsome styles. No. =,
which is great favorlte with tailors,
carriage trimmers and all who desire the
best machine for light manufacturing
work, the button-hole machine No. 3,
and the extra manufacturing machine
No. !.
All these machines are sold at very
moderate prices, and are within the
reach of all classes of society. Columns
could be written ahout the superiority of
these machines over 4 very great many
on the market, but the writer thinks the
foregoing Will be sufficient to induce
all interested in the matter, who read
the EXAMINER, to visit the Office Of the
agent Of the company in Waco, next

to describe. or send for an illustrated
pamphlet, which more fully describes
them.

chickens, turkeys, ETC., and always have
the best country and western produce IN

". Downs, L. s. Ross, d. Il. Wallace II
W, Hubby, all PRESENT.. S. Ross ba;,o
called to the chair and ID. R. Wallace
acting AS secretary, an organization OF
the EXAMINER PUBLISHING COMPANY
was effected by the election of L. S
boss as president, upon the motion Of
D. w Downs, senior proprietor, and d
IL. Wallace as secretary and treasurer.
Inc above Is taken from the records OF
the abovenamed company. 1t originated
WIN The proprietOrs Of the above-meu-
toned papers, who are made directors
FOR one year. The purpose" as ex-
pressed il the articles of corporation, SIS
tor transactlng a general printing and
publishing business of every character
and description, and especially for the
publication Of daily newspaper called
the WACO DAILY EXAMINER, and Il
weekly newspaper called the EXAMINER
AND PATRON"
The capital stock of the company is
put down III the articles OF corporation
at $4,000 The directors ordered the
issuance to themselves of only so much
stock a. the actual value Of the property
fully justified them IN doing, and IN
structed the president to place $1,000
worth of stock upon the market IL shares
of 300 each They were melted to tins
action by two reasons-tirst, to raise adj
djtional means to enable them TO en-
large the sphere Of operation, to pur-
chnse new fixtures ana appliances and
generally to push the circulation Of their
publications-the money raised by sale
of stock not going TO the previous own
ers, but into the Joint stock COM
pauy Another still stronger
reason is to give all our citizens, who
may desire it, an equal opportunity with
themselves to go into the business.
There Is no purpose Of getting up mo-
nopoly or "a close corporation. All can
invest III the stock upon the same terms
with themselves, the stock issued being
only enough to cover actual cost of the
property, as can he demonstrated to any
who may desire TO look into it.
1t Is the purpose TO get up tirst-class
newspaper-onc that will compare favor
ably with any other IN the state--a
worthy representative of Waco and Cen
trial Texas, and suitable medium of
for our business
men, with their patrons and
correspondents. It is desirable, there
fore, that our leading professional and
business men should, so far as this is
practicable, become identified with the
enterprise-should become directly IN
terested in the publications. It is the
purpose to couciliate all the material
interests and social wants OF our city
and community. As the best way to eff
feet this. We have left unissued the major
portion Of the stock, so as to give all an
to become interested il the
enterprise. 1t is quite certain that a
capital OF $4,000 can be employed in the
business with excellent results in the
way OF dividends. The business is
capable of indefinite expansion. The
occasion is propitious. VIII not lead
ing citizens and business men cooperate
with Us in an enterprise that promises
to build up the material interests of our
city and to pay a handsome dividend to
