San Marcos free press. [volume] (San Marcos, Tex.) 1877-1892, 1883-09-27

In answer to number of letters which
Governor Ireland has addressed to various
county officials rs to what has been done by
the county authorities to prevent or punish
offenders for cutting fences and depredating
upon cattle, the uniform answer is that no
action has been taken. As has beep stated
before, the governor can do nothing practi-
cal in the matter until the county authorities,
by their action, afford him some basis on
which to proceed, other than mere individu-
al complaints. without testimony against
parties. In one instance when he sent to
investigate the facts, the sheriff told the Of
ficer that he dill not want his assistance,
and in all cases it has so far been impossible
to get at any tangible action in the mater.

SPECIAL EDITION.

Early in October, we propose issti
ing a Special Edition of the FREE
PRESS, embracing a new edition OF
our description of Hays County, with
notices of every town and locality in
the county, statistics from official
sources, and a summary of the bust
ness of the county, especially OF San
Marcos. We solicit facts and figures
on these points from all whom it may
concern. The entire edition will be
for circulation among persons desir-
ing information of the County, main
" resident abroad. 1t will be a good
advertising medium for all who are
permanently engaged in business
here, especially bankers, real estate
agents, and all others seeking to be
known abroad, or to do business
with prospective immigrants
We ask that all who desire copies
will give us the number they want as
soon as possible, so we may know
how many to print. Also that those
desiring advertisements inserted will
hand them in promptly.

il might be rather awkward for them to be
compelled to "eat their own words" We
would also kindly suggest to them not to
be too hard even on Ben Butler, for next TO
Tilden he is just rs likely as auy one TO re-
ceive the nomination, andin case he should,
these editors to man will be found throw
