A Generous Tribute.

Looking at the sales of land and real es-
tate in your county, am surprised at the
high prices Here in this county. which is
well watered by several very large creeks,
with plenty of timber and rich soil, we can
not near get the prices, and believe the
average death rate according. to population
is less here, than in Hays. I own several
tracts-more than 1000 acres-but if
would ask such prices they would laugh at
Inc; however, az do not need money, I
hold on to my lands. The prosperity of
your county, 1 think is great deal due to
you, because you gave good description of
your county, for which, however, think
your people give you little credit. 7 think
you are the only editor in the State who has
been so painstaking in regard to this.

The FREE PRESS claims that San Marcos
has a century plant which blooms every
wear. We know that the soil about San
Marcos is very rich and productive, but
Bro. Julian, isn't that just leetle bit lively
for century plant?
Thus goeth of our friend of Every Sunday
of San Antonio and the EXPRESS previously
tried to poke fun at us on the same subject.
Be il known, therefore, that we only stated,
on the authority of Mr.. Stein of this place,
who knows both Texas and Mexico,
that the plant which blooms every year
referred to is Texas production Iesembl-
