REPUBLICAN wool buyers are trav-
ersing the county, visiting men wh' M
they know HAVE SOLD their wool, aud
offering them 35c per pound. This is
two or three cents in advance of what
they are paying when they BUY. The
object OF this Dodge is to make wool
growers who HAVE SOLD, believe that
wool is coming up--that they sold too
soon--and that The reduction of the
tariff has not been the cause of the
extremely low price of wool this year.
These applegists for the great outrage
perpetraJed upon the wool growers
sbsuld explain why an UNUSUALLY
LARGE NUMBER OF Boston buyers have
gone to London and Australia to buy
foreign wool. i Newark Advocate.

A Shaking Mountain.

About three months ago a number
of miners explored Ell Monte Amargo,
the Bitter Mountain in Northern
Chill. Near the top of the mountain
they found something of which they
had heard marvellous stories-the Eye
of the Gold. This mine of poetic
name was examined, to the dlsap-
pointment of the whole party. Even
ing had crept on, and it was too
late to descend, so the Californians
lighted a fire under rock near the
summit, there to pass the night. A
furious wind was blowing from the
neighboring desert of Atamaca. Sud,
denly the wind dropped; and unusual
calm and silence followed. Then
came a confused murmur as from a
distant angry crowd of people, swell
ing to grinding, crushing sound. A
slight SILVER ran through the solid
mountain, succeeded by more posi-
tive rocking motion. The men got
upon their feet as quickly as possible,
but in another moment all were shak-
en- down. One of the prospectors
says that the mountain seemed about
to sink beneath them. A horrid roar
pervaded all space, and Monte
Amrargc beloved like the wind
stirred surface of the ocean. The
men were seized with dreadful nausea
and an indescribable feeling of de-
spair. The frightful phenomnon
lasted less than half minute, and
when it was over earth and sky were
as peaceful as ever. They had ex-
perienced "a trembler," said to be
worse on Bitter Mountain than at
any other known place.

The Princess of Wales and the Cleveland
Girl.

It is whispered in serene attitudes
of the best society in London and it is
muttered in the next stratum that
my pen ter-r-rembles at the thought
Miss Chamberlain has been very
nearly cut" by the princess of Wales.
Her royal highness was very cordial the
other day to every lady present, shak-
ing hands with all of them, but return
ing Miss Chamberlain salute in the
stiffest manner. The princess is not
only pretty and good, but extremely
sensible woman, and, knowing the
prince to be confirmed male firt,
smiles gently at the toquades to which
he is affected. When he constituted
himself the cavalier, first, to Mrs.
Langtry and then of Mrs. CORVALLIS
West, his wife was extremely kind to
those ladies who knew perfectly well
how to keep the heir apparent in his
place, and thus maintain their own.
As [ was not at Hamburg when the
prince was there, 1 cannot repeat the
Enthusiastically chatter I heard about
Miss Chamberlain and the prince.
No actual improperly is suggested,
but it seems that they appeared tegeth
er in public too often to please CEN
serious world, and behaved with a
freedom pronounced quite unprece-
denied. The worst of all was the in
discretion of an illustrated newspaper,
in which appeared full-page wood
cut of the prince and Miss. Chamber
laine looking at the fireworks at Ham
burg. This work of art was, l hear,
shown to the princess, who is, as any
other lady would be, annoyed that her
husbands flrtations should be made

The Cotton Crop.

All we know about picking cotton
is nobody has finished and that every
body lacks a great deal OF beng
through. Bradstreet has a hundred
letters from Texas, so of which say
picking will be finished by Jan. l, 20;
by Feb. 1, and 2 and by March !;
The error in this is the 80 should
have fixed February l. From all the
information we can gather 1t VIII De
at least that date before it is all
picked out or even the greater portion
of it. And the weather will have
to be fine in order to do that. We
hardly think over 60 per cent. OF the
crop has been picked, taking the
state over. If it has taken Septem..
Der, October, November and half OF
December to pick 60 how long Will 1t
take to pick the remaining Az per
cent? Certainly more than two
months and likely all of two and a
half, which will bring around the frst
of March. The bad weather to inter
vene must enter in the consideration.
We cannot make feld-hands work IN
Texas when it is raining or severely
cold. The two who say there will be
cotton to pick on the first of March
are highest the truth.
Some of Bradstreet's correspon-
dents are hardly posted. For instance
the one in Dallas says, the yield IN
this county will be 10000 or 10000
bales. 1t will be about one-thlrd
these amounts, or 10000 to $4,000:
That publication makes up table OF
the whole crop of the south, based
upon the figures given in $50 coun,
ties, written from 500 counties. 1t
says:
The figures are the results of adj
ding the estimates of the correspon-
dents for their respective counties on
the basis of q close knowledge OF the
county's acreage. The existing proba-
bilities, are set forth in the following
table, which shows the probable cot
ton crop of 1928, as compared
with the crop of 1SS0-S1: ;"

Value of Texas Cattle.

A short time since there was a
great cutlery about this country ship
ping an enormous quantity of beef
cattle to Europe. 1t had the effect of
running the price up to about double
what it was few years ago. AL
though export had something to do
with the increase in value it was not
the whole cause. Two men who at
tended the Dairy Show at London
last week declared, in addressing an
assembly at the Agricultural Hall,
that the American population is in
creasing faster than the power of
American farmers to supply it with
beef, and that they will have very lit
tie to spare for shipment for some
time to come.
Be all this as it may, there is no
denying the fact of steady demand
for every surplus steer Texas has on
hand, and that her wealth in cattle
has doubled quite recently. This has
greatly stimulated production. Great
ranches are being established at every
point in Western Texas where grass
and water can be found. In the older
counties farmers appreciate the diff
ference between So and $50 for a
fat steer, and are having more Of
them for sale than they used to. The
ewes Of the world are now turned to
Texas for a supply Of beef. As great
as is our capacity We cannot wlth-our
present stock and ranches begin to
supplyit. We are rapidly increasing
II. but there is not the least danger Of
San Marcos free press. [volume] (San Marcos, Tex.) 1877-1892, 1883-01-04

going too fast or too far. There is
too much net profit in a COW and her
offspring to place her in the scale Of
speculation. So enormous is the
profit, capital is being fast attracted
from the outside world and placed In
il. But our great ranches only have
limited number of years to run.
Farmers are slowly but surely moving
upon them and will eventually fence
them upin from 100 to 1000 tracts
of land. What those populations
now depending upon as for beef will
do then is problem of the future.

Kosmos says: 1.-The beliefs of one
decade are the superstition of the next;
the paradoxes of to-day are the propa-
ganda Of tomorrow. This is i'm
portant if true, and any person that
feels the symptoms of paradox COM
ing on him to-day, should not neglect
it, but take something at once, or to-
morrow he may be cut down with a
propaganda, and beyond the reach of
medicine. People are liable to be
careless. A paradox may not seem to
be a serious thing, and man will
think it will wear off, and he will 90
abouthis business giving it no thought,
and he will laugh at it if friend tells
him he ought to see a doctor about the
paradox, but when, the next day, the
propaganda breaks out, and he is con-
fined to his bed, and can't get his
night shirt of, and has to be rolled
over to the back side Of the bed to
have the sheets changed, he begins to
realize, when it is too late, that he is
condemned fool for net heading of the
paradox when it first began to show
itself, and thus save himself from
run Of propaganda, with Its attendant
evils. Kosmos ought to advertise IN
the papers.-Psoly Stfs.

By which it will be seen Texas
leads Missouri, the next highest cot
ton state, 1923, 900 bales. She stands
indisputably at the head of the last by
a long shot over "a New York ma
jority," as they say i'll political circles
these days-123,0O0 over, that ma
jority being only 100000. 1t will
also be noticed in the above table we
will send to market this year, 49,
900 more bales than we did in 1880,
showing the rapid increase in cotton
culture in Texas. At this rate of in
crease we will raise 1000, 10000 bales
five years hence, and will doubtless
do SO. While all the other states
above enumerated, except Arkansas
and the Indian Territory, have about
reached their maximum production,
Texas is still a new state with not
over 10 per cent. of cotton lands
under cultivation, with, indeed, per-
haps not ovor five. We have land
enough to raise the present crop of
the world, quite easily.
At $40 per bale the crop of Texas
this year is worth $58,995,00O, or
sixty million dollars in round num-
bers. This is a princely sum Of
money to be earned in one season,
off only one article of export.
