VOLUME XVIII.
From 0nr Pa.

The following is an extract tax
en- from a letter from our Pa.
Dear Son. 1 see from your pa
per that you had a blow up at
Houston. 1 was at Houston so
years ago, 1 little dreamed then
that 1 would ever live to hear of a
son of mine mixed up in such an
affair as that Houston mus. But l
suppose you got into it uninten-
tionally; 1 was however somewhat
pleased when 1 learned that you
did not go off with the Turner
Hall delegation. The politics Of
your state are indeed badly mixed
up. All / have to say in reference
to the above is to keep your paper
out of politics for the present, and
vote for the democratic nominees
if you can find them to vote for.
Your FATHER.
Pa; why didn't you write that
letter longtime ago? We got
into the political mus some how or
other, and the more we try to get
out the deeper in we get. But we
viii try TO stay with them yet
little while longer, and promise to
vote for the democrats if we can
find them, but it is mighty hard to
tell a democrat from any body else
out here Just now. Say Pa we
want you to write US another letter
just before the next campaign COM
mences.

Joint Debate at San Saba.

According to previous arrange
ments, a joint discussion took
| place at the Courthouse Monday,
Sept. r., between R. B. Allen of
Brentwood, and S. d. Foote of
Lampasas. Mr.. Allen opened in
one hour and twenty minutes. His
reasoning was sound and convinc-
ing. He showed from the records
the true character of both the old
parties and the absolute need of
political reform as demanded by
the Peoples party. The Court
house was crowded with men of
all shades of politics. Mr.. Allen
was listened to with wlapt atten-
ton and was frequently applauded
Mr.. Foote replied in a speech of
one hour and forty minutes. He
spoke eloquently of the record of
our grandfathers, but when he
came down to modern democracy
he could not meet the issue, hence
the best he could do was to talk
around it. This he did in good
style to the satisfaction of his
friends, no doubt, but much to the
amusement of the Peoples party
men who were present. Mr.. Allen
is making a -FOUR of the county. A
democratic team has been engaged
to go around with him. 1 believe
that they, (the team will be wiser
if not better men, before they get
through with Mr.. Allen. Accord
ing to tho San Saba News some
one has said that Mr.. Allen was
butting against democratic princi-
pies. fit is butting against dem
ocratic principles to stand up and
fight for the peoples cause against
the encroachments of oligarchy
and the money kings, then 1 say if
this is against democratic princi-
pies, let Mr.. Allen keep on butting,
the people are with him.
Yours for Reform,
Jas. Burns, in Living Issues.

A Poem IN Prose.

Lives there a man with soul SO
dead who never to himself has
said, "I'll pay before 1 go to bed,
the debt 1 owe the printer" Yes,
there are some we know full well,
who never such a tale would tell,
but they, we fear, will go towel,
the place where there's no winter.

If the department Of the state
government can get along for four
to six months in the year without
the presence of their chiefs and
their principal clerks, they should
be able to get along for the bal
ance of the year in the same way,
as work in those departments does
not go by Seasons" And if so
much of the force can be dispens-
ed with without detriment to the
state, suggestion in the line of
economy can be found for the con-
sideration of the next legislature.
Why maintain two or three extra
men in each department simply to
enable that many to spend six
months of their time electioneAr-
ing for Office for themselves and
friends at the states expense?-

SAN SABA. TEXAS. OCTOBER Z. 1892.
SAN SABA, Oct. 4, 1892.

OAN OADa5 WI. Il
To the Hon Board of Trade Of San saba, Texas
The Board of Health of San
Saba, Tex, having received your
valued communication of Sept. 9Th
inst, the purport of which was e
put the town of San Saba in a
proper sanitary condition by rais-
ing a fund by voluntary contribu-
tions, &c, would respectfully state
that after a respectable effort to
obtain said funds the response was
SO very meagre, the agent aban-
doned the undertaking, eonse-
quenty we are left without resouE
ces to carry out your wise sugges-
tions.
We would respectfully suggest
(the Importance of this being too
self-evident to all civilized people
to require argument) that we see
no other alternative than by rigid
enforcement of the Statutory Law
for the abatement of nuisance.
Article 3S9 of the Penal Code
declares that eff any person shall
suffer any substance injurious to
the health of those residing in the
vicinity to remain on premises in
his possession, he shall be punish
cd by fine of not less than $1,000
nor more than $4,000. And each
day such substance re-
mains on such persons premises
shall be considered a separate Of
fence"
In view of this law, we desire to
say, it is a fact easily established
that pig styes and privies not prop
erly cleaned are certainly inju-
rious to the health of those resid-
ing in the vicinity. And in order
that our town may be properly
and put in good sanitary
condition, we recommend that
$4,000 or as much thereof as may
be necessary be appropriated for
the purpose of securing strong
and rigorous enforce
ment of this law.
Respectfully, but earnestly sub
mitted, We remain,
A. GREGG, NJ. D.
n. KETCHUM, NJ. D.
W. NJ. ALLISON.
Board of Health.
Resolved, That we the Board of
Directors for the Board of Trade
Of San Saba, having under consid-
grafton the above and foregoing
report of the Board of Health, con-
slider the question of sanitary reg
considered in said report
as one of vital Importance to this
town, and request our president,
J. II. Martin, to call a meeting of
the Board of Trade at the earliest
time practicable, that all members,
as well as all others interested in
the health of our town are earnestly
requested to be present and take
part in said deliberation.
Conforming to the above, 1 here
by call a meeting of the Board of
Trade members, and invite all 9TH
ers to be present, Tuesday, Oct.
18th, at 7:30 pm.
