SHORT STOPS.
what the People are Saying.


The people are busy just now looking
from the court house to the city hall ana
the contemplation is by no means cheer
full one.
BY their own confession, under oath, the
county commissioners court is thorough
ly incompetent and unfit body of men to
handle the important business entrusted
to them.
They have undertaken big job In the
erection of county court house and have
already spent over one hundred and
twenty thousand dollars and not stone
or brick has been laid. They are
practicing deception upon the people as
To the cost of the structure which Will be
but half finished and the 100000 will be
expended, leaving gigantic folly on the
hands of the taxpayers.
A set of officials who by their own coz.
fesSion are incapable of understanding
their duties under the plain laws of the
state, and careless of the expenditure Of
public money to the verge oflcriminality,
undertaking 10 erect magnificent public
building!
The people can see that this is but a
scheme to control, through employment,
the purchasable vote of the county at the
next election. Is there no way to stop it?
The passage at the last meeting of the
city council of an ordinance to issue an
other batch of refunding bonds, is chip
with cockroach under it.
If the members of the city council, not
in the secret, cannot see the bug the peo-
pie can. 1t is a scheme to put $4,000 in
| the bank as basis for further credit.
These bonds that they want to redeem
are already in the hands of the city to the
credit of the sinking fund. They are re-
funding bonds issued 10 redeem other
bonds, and are the property of the city,
having been paid for by the city, and are
Lo doubt cancelled or should be, but they
are not money, which the city very much
needs just now.
The excuse for fishing out these bonds
and reiSsuing them, is to redeem bonds
due and about to become due,' which ac-
false statement; there are no bonds due
or about to become due.

city has been plunged by the reckless ex-
travagance OF the administration, prompts

Tho Tragedy OF the Ba:nyard.

By the right of ancient custom and
the order of the president this is lanen-
tation day-in the barnyard. Elsewhere,
perhaps, it is Thanksgiving day, and the
selfish world of folks, that spares from
the prodigal's joy no plying thought for
the fatted calf, is going to make it u
holiday. Blessed little concern is given
the tremendous tragedy it brings to
poultry. There is rather glory in the
slaughter, and the carnival is peculiarly
one of deHth. THE frost is in the pump
kin and the fodder is thriftily in shock"
throughout this northern farm land this
morning. There is rime upon tho
shingles Of the barn and a white mist
rises from the litter of the stable yard.
Who would mar this peaceful scene
and check this flow of life and Joy? Tho
duty has its vandal candidate, and he
does SO in the name Of Thanksgiving.
Down from the wall comes the old
smoothbore; down its rusty throat 90
the powder and the shot; down against
the stock goes the farmers cheek us he
levels his eye along the barrel; down
comes the hammer, and-oh, the crime
OF it!-down comes the gosbler in the
pride Of his plethoric prime. There is
one wild cry and then q prodigious
futter. This is the drama Of the day,
and whether it be the block instead Of
tho gunshot 1t is none tho less tragic

Thanksgiving y Patriotic Festival.

As patriotic festival Thanksgiving
does much to foster love of country
and feeling Of pride in the goodly land
which is our national heritage. From
sea to sea, through all our borders, we
are Christian people. and we expect to
receive the crowding immigrants from
foreign shores and make them Chris
tian too.
In the home happy scenes are the
rule. Grandparents survey with proud
complacency the features Of the babies.
Only grandparent fully appreciates
the rare endowments and wonderful
beauty of the second generation. Chill
dren on their part find it difficult 10 be-
lieve that the grandparents who spoil
them could ever have said NO with
the readiness and ease with which that
monosyllGble is uttered by father and
mother. Around the table and by the
hearth "reminiscences are in order, and
the quickly responsive laughter crowns
the innocent jest.-Christian at Work.

Don't Forget the Cook.

And who thought about the cook? The
cook it was who prepared the feast
which tici;led the cookies Of your heart
and made You look at al things through
the roseate spectacles which are but
an adjunct to a well fed stomach.
Thanksgiving is great day for the
cook. She can glory over the triumph
Of her art. She can offer up thanks that
the soup was just right, that the turkey
was well cooked, tina. the pudding was
grand, and that she, in her humble way,
did much to make Thanksgiving a day
for giving thanks.

Little Paul's Thanksgiving,

They tossed him and they squeezed him.
And they kissed him, one and all;
They said, you blessed, blessed boyl"
And Darling little Paull'
But thsy d!dnt give him turkey,

And when the nuts aud grapes went round
They slyly passed him by.
But he d'dat seem To mind It,
For in the sweetest way
He sat and sucked his little thumb,
His first Thanksgiving day.
