SOME Of the Mayes campaign
orators love to dwell upon the
pedigree Of the Downing party.
They love TO tell how Lewis Down
ing, way back in the sixties, told
a certain party Of our citizens to
come back and all be one people.
That was all right at that time.
Ii showed a patriotic spirit and is
worthy of praise. But what is it
worth now 1t reminds one of a
guide board still standing for years
after the road had been fenced up.
1t stands silently pointing into
some mans field swearing that is
the road, when a traveller had not
went that way for ten years. So
with the Downing party, it still
swears it is under the leadership of
Lewis Downing, who has slept in
his grave for more than a quarter
Of century, and the principles he
inaugurated have been forgotten.

The Mayesitos are making their
main fight on the Alliance in Coo
weescoowee district, which in it.
self is very suggestive. The Al
lance movement is an Independent
one. men from every political
party are hocking to its support
and il means an utter demolition
Of party lines. Capt, Jackson and
others are trying to make it ap-
pear that the Alliance and Liberal
parties are one and the same. But
everybody knows that it is not the
same. The Liberal party endorsed
some OF the Alliance candidates to
be sure, but they were in nomina-
ton long before there was a Lib
eral ticket. There never was such
an opportunity to give the old
parties black eye, and show to
the country that men can be elect
cd to office on their merits as men.

steers in the market should not bring 51S
cents and better for long period to come
Cattle are cattle once more. There is 10
imitation or manipulation in the present
state Of the market It is simply the
natural effect of supply and demand. The
shortage OF beef animals is going to con-
tinue sufficiently long to breed and mature
steers for market. Cattle growers should
not for moment think different. Now is
the time for action and for planning. In
the next four years it viii not be possible
to raise surplus of good beeves.
One good thing has been accomplished in
curtailing the number of cattle on the
range by millions, and that is it has in a
large measure aided in doing away with the
scrubs. The average beef animal in the
Rockies is of far better grade to-day than
three or four years ago. Those that Will be
grown and turned of in the near future
will also show further Improvement.
While the number will-for a time at least
not be so great, there will be more beef
and of better quality. With the march of
progress the cattle growers of theSfar West
will advance this industry in full keeping
with the development Of the country.
Hereafter the choice matured young beeves
TO be found in the chief markets OF the
country will be largely made up of ship
ments from the Rocky mountain domain
An assertion of this sort in 1885 would have
caused a broad smile of derision, while
now its truth is appreciated by all think
ing and well informed persons connected
with or Interested in the cattle growing
industry. Field and Farm.

William Farar, prominent livestock
trader from California, but who covers the

receiving about $500 head of cattle for his

Ranger, is in the city mixing with his many
friends. Mr., Ray has recently been at Hico

branded. The firm also has interests in
Stevens and Shackelford. He remarked
that people in his section were preparing to
pay attention to hog raising in future, in
addition to other interests, and that he pro-
posed to take no small hand in the business.

Beef Cattle and the Market Supply.

Cattle have advanced over 81 hundred in
the Chicago market in the past three weeks,
and still there is a shortage in the supply Of
good steers. The daily receipts show a
large decrease from the same dates of 1890
This is bound to continue. More than once
the Field and Farm has pointed out the
drift of the cattle industry. and it is par
ticularly pleasant to have our statements
verified in this practical way. There is an
actual shortage Of beeves from one end of
the country to the other, and even up to
this writing there are many well informed
stock growers who do not recognize the ex-
tent or the importance of this shortage.
Each wsalrfiow will make it more manifest
uau11 markets will continue firm, with a
strong upward tendency. The down grade
road has at last turned, and with proper
care and management the thrifty cattle
growers should make good their losses of
the last half dozen years. This cannot ~
done in one season, but each year q part bf
the old score will be wiped out, and in 1A6
the cattle industry will be on a frmer Al
more prosperous foundation thaaszi6 the
halcyon days of 1854.
Strictly choice cattle have sold for more
than Z cents, live weight, pound in Chi
cago This is an improvement that is fully
warranted, and there Is no reason why good

Gives Up Illinois for Texas.

J. L. Elwood of DeKalb, Ill, has pur-
chased 10000 acres of land in Lamb and
Mitchell counties, this state. The con-
sideration amounted to about four hundred
thousand dollars, and the cost of stocking
will be about two hundred and fifty thou
sand dollars. This is the investment of one
man, who will conduct his own business
OF course Mr.. Ellwood is in love with
Texas, and he says that the state has the
greatest future of any country in the
world. Speaking of West Texas, he said ::
1.-The finest soil and the largest area of
tillable land awaits cultivation in this sec
ton. The land is now cheap and can be Sc
cured for 50 per acre, but the time is not
far distant when this land will be worth $40
an acre. Such magnificent agricultural
land is bound TO be IN demand some time,
and the manner in which immigrants are
pouring in indicates that the time is not far

and firmly believe that the land will treble

Coal Trade Dull.

The trade is dull and unsettled, and
prices are consequently weaker, while
there has been falling off in the demand
for coal during the past week. This
condition of affairs will continue to alter
nate with the rise and fall of the mercury
in the thermometer until after the winter
season is over. Broken coal is drug in
the market, and egg coal is also weaker
in price, and chestnut is being forced on
the market by shading the price in order
to reduce the accumulation at tidewater.
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending
December 5, as reported by the several
carrying companies, was S79,7SS tons,
compared with $40, 800 tons in the cores
ponding week last year, an increase of
300, ,7S9 tons. The total amount of an
thracite mined thus far in the year 1891
was 37,509, $50 tons, compared with 49,
469, 1865 tons for the same period last year,
an increase of 4,039, ,593 tons-Ledger.

The proprietor of the Philadelphia
Record, VIM. M. Singerly, locked out his
compositors Tuesday evening, and the
paper yesterday bore evidence of rat
work. The trouble arose over demand
made by the Typographical Union upon
the publishers of the morning papers for
an advance in wages. The rate asked
has been paid for some time by the
Record, excepting upon two sizes of type,
and when the committee proposed uni
form scale per 1000 ems the men, eighty
two in number, were locked out. All
the other publishers employing union
men granted the demand, some under
protest. Non-union employees were taken
on, and the Record is now down to the
level of the Press as scab sheet. Sing
erly was regarded, next to Mr.. Childs,
of the Ledger, as the printers best friend
in that city, and in private letter to
this Office President Somers states the
union people believe he will reconsider
his hasty action. The Record can scarce
ly afford to incur the enmity of the
thousands of friends it has made among
the laboring element, yet it is likely
organized labor will take suitable action
in the matter. The Press is yet smarting
under the blow it received for locking
out its men, as the prosperity of its rival,
the Inquirer, testities.
