THE BUTCHERS SIDE OF IT.

In justice to the butchers killing and handling
the native meats both in summer and winter
season. we have this to say in reply to Mr..
Charles Drayton's interview with your reporter
OF 10th issue: While his statement regarding
North Carolina cattle is correct, and he was one
OF the largest dealers in that class of cattle
several years ago. such is not the case now.
Our butchers who slaughter the native meat
home became muca wiser in the past few ears
and do not handle that class of cattle that will
become sick from change of climate, but use
the native Georgia and Florida steers in the
summer season and chiefly the Tennessee stock
IN winter season, which come here in perfect
health. In conclusion will say that it looks
very queer and inCOnstant that a man who
wishes to suake his reputation on the purity of
the western meat which he sells now when be
acknowledges himself that he had to kill
twenty or thirty head Of cattle to prevent them
from dying, and sell them for good meat be
fore handling western, as he acknowledges in
has statement Of the 10th.
Below you will read a statement from gen
tleman whose experience in handling cattle
here and in the west has been long and varied.

TEXAS CROPS AND WEATHER.

In Hall county fifteen bushels OF corn
have been made on sod land that was only
broken and planted.
Farmers in Runnels county are still SOW
ing wheat.
The fall crop of Irish potltes in Wichita
county IS said to be very fine. in some fields
the yield Will reach 100 bushels TO the acre.
TROY, BELL COUNTY, Oct. 26.-There
have been over two thousand bales Of cot
ton bought here this season, and there will
be more marketed here this year than last,
but the reason is not that we have as good
average crop-but increase of acreage and
not SO much sold in other markets as last
year. The prices are so low that great
many who can will hold for better mar
ket. We are having very fine dry weather
for picking. and if the good weather Will
hold for two weeks the principal part Will
have been gathered, though the continued
drouth is making stock water very scarce.
Hamilton. Hamilton COMMUNICATION is
turning out better than was expected a few
weeks ago. People who do not know about
Texas soil would scarcely believe that such
crops as we have gathered this fall could
be produced ii they were informed that we
mad not had Il general soaking rain since
June, 1890, but yet such is the case. The
branches here have not been knee deep in
water since that date, but well-water is
1000 inhabitants there are at least 100 wells
that are not exhausted. While this is the
case. and as this is almost the principal
country in the state for the Woodworking
industry, although they have mostly plenty
of water. still they may have to call on
some of the rain-maliers before next sum
mer.

COME SHOUTING.
THE FARMERS TO RISE TO MAKE
STANFORD GREAT.
The Ticket to be Stanford and Polk or
Stanford and Iorgsn-Allo Hail,
the Ticket of Reform.
Special to the Gazette.


SAN Francisco, CAL, Oct Ex-senator
Stanford's plans for the Farmers Alliance
nomination for president Of the United
States are well laid. The ticket Will be
Stanford and Polk or Stanford and Morgan,
and Stanford has already at work in his
interests some of the best political managers
and manipulators in America. If these
managers could have then own way about
matters, they would first secure for him the
Alliance nomination and then urge his
claims upon the Republican national con-
vention as the sure road to Republican vic
tory. This is not idle talk, but embraces
the scheme that is said to be in active
working order throughout the United
States. There are able and siillful polit-
clans who are only too anxious 10 serve the
senator as long as he foots the bill.
Senator Stanford will not pose as a seeker
aftec the nomination; he is too aSute for
that. but he wants it to come to him in the
form of q mighty uprising of the farmers OF
America in his behalf. If they should fail
TO rise and come shouting then the senator
can say he was never q candidate and never
INDUCED even dream of being one.

ing found guilty OF trying to get up an eX-
hibit merely on the strength of their title,

guilty of trying to acquire title through
