WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER. "a 1898.
For Congress, 10th Cong. District
COL. AUGUSTUS BELKNAP,
OF SAN ANTONIO.
THE TENTH DISTRICT.

If any one will map out this, the
tenth district, he will easily see that |
it was gerrymandered for the purpose
of destroying the stock growing indus
tries in West and Southwest Texas |
in the sole interest of free trade; and |
he will see further, that it was made
for the present incumbent, the Hon.
Jos. ID. Sayers, away up in Bastrop, |
just as the Kangaroo district, begin
ing in Galveston, and running along |
the Gulf coast and up the Rio Grande
to Eagle Pass, was created for Mr.. |
Finley, Of Galveston, another Golden
free trader. But, alas, poor Finley;
the "red headed Ranger gobblCd
him up, as turkey would a cricket,
and that was the last of him. Then
came Grain, ready like Savers, to
place the wool and all stock on the
free trade altar of his party. We scan
the vote on the Mills bill in vain 10
find three democrats, like Lanham,
Grain. and Sayers, so liberal
in the sacrifice of all that is produced
in their districts, and so generous with
their votes, in giving protection to
every other congressional district in
the United States. We venture the
assertion that more complete sur
render of all interests of constituents
can not be found in any other district
represented by democrat in the late
congress. They gave all and got moth
ing, absolutely nothing in return.
They took the new degree in their
party; put OH the iron collar, gave p
their own individuaIities, forgot Tex
as and joined free trade England.
West Texas is, as was well known,
the stock district, represented by cat
tie, horses and sheep, with more
money invested in these than in any
other districts of our country; and
with their products on the free list,
free trade, absolute free trade, means
death to all of them-hOrses, cattle,
wool. Chihuahua and Sonora, in
our sister republic, being nearer
the Chicago market with their
cheap labor can underselI us there
and render west Texas ranches as

cLAp-TRAP FREE TRADE BosH.

CLAP-TRAP FREE TRADE BOSH.
Mills at East st. Louis stated that
the labor in ton of pig iron costs
from 81 .25 to $3.50, whereas the real
cost is about So. What are statistics
worth in the mouth of such man!
One dollar and half ton !!
Think of that, when it requires from
2 to 2 1-2 tons of ore for one ton OF pig
iron; from ga to | ton of lines tone to
fiux it and a ton of coke or coal to re-
duce them, and all these for Sl.5O.
When man can live on ten cents q
day Mr.. Mills statement may become
true, but not until then.
Mills & Co. keep asserting that our
manufacturers protect the amount OF
the tariff on all protected goods, thus
ignoring the increased prices OF wages
here and in the foreign countries.
They claim farther that protection
benefits only the manufacturer and
forgets the laborer entirely.
Free traders can see no difference
in the benefits CT home industries as
against foreign. They tell us in one
breath that free trade will give us
cheaper goods, and in the next, speak.
ing to the laborer, that free trade will
give them higher wages.
They tell us they are in favor of
home production, but every last one
of the free trade boomers, Morrison,
Mills, Scott, Cleveland and Carlisle,
are members of the English Golden
club.

cheap as they were twenty years ago
This is the condition" to which free
trade would reduce us. And Sayers,
like Paul at the stoning of Stephen,
stood by and consented" If we
could hope for any repentance In
Joseph, we might bear with him, but
he rejoices in his free trade iniqulty,
and our only hope is in the election OF
Col. Belknap, who will defend the in
dustries which Mr.. Sayers has so
wantonly deserted. Perhaps MIR. Say
ers will jump up and tell us that he
secured us cheap fuel by putting coal
Oil the free list also. Yes he did
this, so that we could get our coal just
across the Rio Grande, where labor Is
very cheap. He seems to have over
looked the fact that in what some
genius of a map maker mas
termed elevated hills" in
Llano and other counties north and
northwest of us in his district, there is
abundant coal, and coolies OF rich
iron ores, with as many millions In
them. as in red and brown hematlte
ores that have made Birmingham
and Admission in Alabama. There
are marble quarries in the tenth dis
trict, also, that need the defense of
protection, but which the honorable
Joseph could not give consistently
with his free trade theories. AS Mr..
Savers is not in harmony with the
genius of American enterprise, this
district should vote for man who is;
a man who believes in utilizing our
water powers for spinning and weav-
ing our own cotton and wool; a man
who would encourage the erection of
hot blast furnaces in our iron counties,
and the building of rolling mills to
roll our cotton ties and all other iron
needed: man who believes in tan
nerries and shoe factories here, in
stead of in England, to consume
our hides and goat skins: and
a man, who would give us here in
Texas all the benefits of all kinds of
manufactures enjoyed by our fellow
citizens in other parts of our rapidly
expanding republic. In brief, the
tenth dirtrict needs man who is
selfish enough to believe in home en-
terprise; man who knows that our
resources must be fully developed be-
fore we are ready for free trade. And
we need not tell the reader that Col.
Augustus Belknap is such a man,
fully inspired by the spirit Of the age,
alive to all that would promote the
material interest of every man,
woman and child in this district.
Send him to congress and west Texas
will have an advocate in the capital
of the nation. and her wonderful re-
sources will be heard of in way that
will turn the tide travel here.

Erroneous.

1t has been reported, and probably
believed by some, that Hon. S. IL.
Davidson is editorialIy connected
with the Record. We will here state
that he is not, nor never was in any
way connected with the paper.
While we acknowledge Mr.. d. to be
an able and finished writer, who
would grace the sanctum of a met
ropolitan journal, he is lawyer with
a fine practice and has no time to
devote to another mans business.
The name Of the editor, publisher
and sole proprietor of the RECORD
appears at the head Of the first col
umn on the first, second and fourth
pages, and he may be found in
person at most any time, doing noble
work for the people of Sharp county,
by calling at the corner of Main St.
and Tan Yard avenue, where he will
be glad to meet all friends and pros
moters of progress, and will receive
subscriptions and the announcements

The closing exercises of the
Evening Shade High School will be-
gin next Thursday evening, the l4th.
Steps are being taken to revive
the brass band at this place. The
prospective leader and musical di-
rector casually inspected most of the
Instruments last week, and makes
the following report: Drum and
'enhals in good condition, but Jihe
drummer has forgotten the scale.
Z fiat bass is rusticating at Dusock.
b fiat baritone in fair condition,
minus mouth-piece. B fiat tenor
only two valves Gin kiIter," but will
do for picnic use; I'd alto damaged,
but can be fixed; lst alto in very
fair order: b fiat cOrnets can't be
used unless worked on by an expert;
L flat cornets, Of which there were
three, two badly out Of repair, and
the third horn can not now be found.
So, the prospect for picnic, candidate
and barbecue music seems gloomy
indeed. But there's no telling what
energy and determination will do,
coupled with a little money, which
no doubt our public,spirited citizens
will donate to this commendable
enterprise. Who'll pass the hat
while the drummer and lSt alto man
gives q duet.
