sIGNIFICANT.

In these days of political excitement
all things that have a bearing on the
subject that is now uppermost in the
minds of Americans is interesting. Ii
is very generally conceded that New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut are
the pivotal states. Indeed, for all
practical purposes this year it may be
granted that they are one Sate, and
that as either goes so will go the other
two. The relations existing between
the lower Hudson river counties in
New York and New Jersey and Con.
necticut are Of the most interesting
character, growing more so every day.
Northern New Jersey and southwest
ern Connecticut are really suburbs Of
New York city.
The way in which New York state
has cast its vote for President becomes
interesting, the more specially as the
two adjoining states have for years
past followed the example Of the En-
ire state. Now, ever since the late
war, or to speak more accurately, since
and including the presidential election
OF lsGi, the state Of New York has
given its electoral vote TO Republican
and Democratic candidates alternately,

PHKoFFIoIAL PAPER OF CUSTER COUNTY

How to Build Cotton Mills.

One day last week few business men
we're gathered together in a bank in Char
lotte, n. T., and In general conversation
some comment was made on the proposed
building of cotton mill by company
recently organized there. 1t was said that
the more mills the better for the city, as
well as for the stockholders, and this re-
mark meeting with approval, it was cssu-
ally suggested that if those present be-
leved that, let them show their faith by
works. Then one gentleman proposed to
organize 'new company TO
build second mill, and
in ten minutes $4,000 was subscribed.
The next day $4,000 was added to it, and
it is probable that before the company
can be organized the amount will run up
to 100000. So Charlotte will soon have
two mills under construction. This shows
how southern people can push matters
when they are interested. Lynchburg is
also doing something in the same line.

New Mlcrobe Factories.

Mr.. VIM. Radam has returned from an
extended trip to Washington, Cincinnati,
Nashville and other points. While absent
he established H large Microbe Killer fac
tory at Nashville, Tenn, and one at St.
Joe, No This makes six factories, and
if the demand for the wonderful remedy
continues to increase other factories will
be established. The authorities refused
to give Mr.. Radam permission to visit the
yellow fever districts to give the Mic9obe
Killer a trial. Notwithstanding he is sstis-
fed the remedy will kill out the disease
and save hundreds of lives. He should
have been permitted to test it.

That Old Clock.
AUSTIN, November 20, 1888.


To the Editor of The Statesman:
Sir: 1 have little matter of com
plant to lay before the public, and 1t is
this: Why cannot the clock on the
Eighth street station house be repaired,
so that any body who happens to be caught
out after dark can mark the time of night
whenever it strikes? This morning the
clock struck twelvs times for 2, ten
tunes for and eight times for O'Clock.
By way of explanation will say that l
am engaged in Legitimate business which
requires my presence durisg the time
when most of our citizens are enjoying
their slumbers, and, therefore, 1 have
right to complain.
This clock reminds me very forcibly OF
one once saw in little inland town in
PENNSYLVANIA. party of US we're seated
around the stove in room in a little
tavern, which served the double purpose
of Office and barrOom. One of our num-
Der, during a lull in the conversation,
fixed his gaze upon the face of a CLOCK
which hung over the bar. The landlord,
a good natrred Dutchmsn, noticing the
interest our friend took in the clock, re-
marked:
dot is peculiar clock, shentlemens'
eyes," remarked our friend, sit is about
the most unique design 1 ever saw. But
what is there so very peculiar concerning
it?"
"Vell, 1 tell you" remarked our host;
"ven dot minute hand vas on to six, und
de hour hand vas on three, und de clock
strikes ten, den it vas half-past eight"
That is aboat the size OF the Austin
town clock. Let's have it fixed.

FORCIBLY CLIPPED.
How a Snake Charmer Lost His
Charming Twists.

Charming Twists.
Snake Ohsrmer Johns, colored man
who wraps his hair into little twists after
the most improved Senegambian style in
vogue in portions of the African jungles,
was suddenly seized with the idea that it
would be about the proper thing to have
the aforesaid twists clipped off.
Having gained his consent he repaired
to the shop OF Jim Garfield and George
Mcknight, two tonsorial artists of I'M
doubted ability and much reputation
The snake charmer beamed with pat
ronizing air upon the two artists and they
in turn beamed with intense admiration
upon the snake charmer.
He wanted his hair trimmed and they
wanted his money.
He was asked to take seat which he
did, stating at the same time exactly what
he wanted done.
He would have his head shorn of the
numerous little corded twists which had
long graced it.
The artists understood and prepared to
do the job mt atty and expeditiously.
Suddenly change came over the snake
harmer.
He deeply regretted the step he was
about to take, and at once declared he
would not have his head clipped.
The artists, however, did not change
their minds. Not much they didn't
They would cut his hair whether or no,
and while one finally held the terrified
snake charmer in the chair the other cheer
fully proceeded to denude his head of its
time-honored twists.
He cussed and kicked but it did no
good.
The shears snapped and clipped and the
twists fell under the skilled hand of the
manipul ,tions of the self-satisfed and
gleeiul artists.
After they got through, the wrathful
John gazed ruefulIy at his pet twists and
then hurried out and made complaint
against the two artists.
They we're arrested, and yesterday
morning before Justice Tegener they
plead guilty, and we're fined So and costs
each.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
Time Extended for Completing
the New Bridge.

The county commissioners, in session
yesterday morning, upon oath made by
the representatives of the King Bridge
company that circumstance over which
they had no control had delayed wo-k at
their shops, extended the time for com
plotting the Montropolis bridge until the
LIST day of next April.
The commissioners also requested all
the county officers to make a careful in
ventory of all the furniture and books in
their offices preparatory to turning over
the same to the officers-elect tomorrow,
when they will be indicted into Office.
1t is possible that tomorrow a superin-
tendent for the poor farm and bridge
keeper will be selected. There are scores
of applicants, but from talk yesterday it
seems that the present incumbents have
the inside track by large majority.

PASSENGERS LEFT
While Wrestling With Railroad
Sandwiches.

The southbound International train,
in the murk and rain yesterday morning,
wheezed itself into the city and glided up
to the new depot.
In trice hungry, tired passengers tum
bled from the coaches and repaired to the
lunch stand to get bite to eat.
The sleeping car conductor, too, took
his place at the counter and cheerfully
sailed into any and everything to eat
which came handy.
All were busy filling up when the signal
to back was given, and the train began to
wheeze itself out.
The sleeping Car conductor and passen-
sengers thought it was moving back for a
short distance, but they we're mistaken.
The train was starting out on its San
Antonio run, and it went out with rush,
leaving the conductor and passengers all
full of disgust, hard boiled eggs and sand
witches.
The cleft" crowd made the best they
could of it yesterday and went over to San
Antonio on the train last night.

this city, handed Colonel William Came
ron check for about $4,000, due en-
policy taken twenty years ago, which had

outlived the term he received the amount
of the original policy and 90 per cent

The Able Assessor,

Mr.. Ham Metz received 1924 votes at
the last election; just two votes less than
the number cast for Mr.. Hart. Mr.. Metz
is one of the most efficient and careful
tax assessors in this state, and no more
popular gentleman lives in this county.
He is untiring and painstaking, and his
rolls in the comptroller's department are
among the most accurate and best pre-
pared on file in that Office.

Austin people should ponder over the
above and go to work and build a mill
