!. We don't own lot in the city
of Waco for sale.
2. We don't own an acre of
ground in McLennan county for
sale.
3. We are not a seeker nor an
aspirant for any office in the gift of
the people.
4. We are not asking for the post
office, nor any other Office in the
gift OF the president or congress, IN
the United States.
5. We are in a business which
will be less benefited by attractions
bringing people to Waco than any
other. We sell very few things
that people could take away with
them on the train.
e Notwithstanding this fact, we
offer to take $1,000 of stock in the
Waco Cotton Palace. no matter by
whom controlled or where built.
7. Our business last year was the
best we ever had In our line, and has
increased from year to year ever
since we have been in business,
which we attribute TO our friends
and our liberal dealings with our
customers.
S. The money spent on adverts.
ing in newspapers has brought the
biggest returns of any money we
have ever spent.
o. We are receiving trade today
from fifty miles around as the direct
fruits of our liberal advertising and
low prices.
10. We have made some enemies,
all of whom are in the list of those
who tried TO beat us in some way.
In the language of Sam Jones: "If
you want to get a man right down
hard on you, just wait till his bill is
out Of date, tnen try to collect it,
and he will never forgive you in the
world"
II. If we owe dollar to any
man or woman in Waco, whether
due or not, they can get the same
by presenting their bill at our office.
Il. Tha Waco Cotton Palace has
more friends, more enthusiastic sup.
porters, and we believe there are
more men in Waco who will con.
tribute to il or take stock than any
thing which has ever been started in
Waco. We believe the Waco
Cotton Palace will bring 81, 900, 900
to Waco in one year that would
have never come here without it.
IS. The Waco Trading company
has the biggest stock, is the best
prepared, has the lowest prices for
the quality of goods, and il the only
house IN Texas that can furnish
your house from kitchen to parlor
IA. The approval of my con.
science is dearer to me than the
praise of any man or set of men.
Is. Never had the cheek to write
communications, advertising myself
at the expense of the newspapers,
when | was not spending one cent
with them.
l6. We have never "toadied" to
any man or licked the boots of any
'big bug"
II. We have succeeded upon
plain principles of right.
IS. Many chit dog" has howled
at our kick, but small pup never

10. If you want man to hate
you just let him beat you, or get
away with you. This applies to a
woman as WELL

sought,
Hath lost her charm when once
she's caught"
Lastly-We can furnish your

An enterprsing editor of a Chicago
paper who investigated this matter for
public news, estimates that during the
last winter season the 1000 saloons
of that city fed $4,000 persons per day.
| This is concentrated uncnaritable charity,

beggar has, debase him, pauperize him
and send him out to practice again his
parasitism upon the public. again to re-

Let US look at the other way of doing
beneficence-that OF individual face to

those of all classes who ask it. While
this is the best form, up to date, of aid
ing the poor, yet IL has IT'S weaknesses.
One is the careless inconsiderate passing
out OF small sums indiscriminately to
beggars and so encouraging pauperism.
One says: ITS little mite, and does not
deplete my purse" another says: ITS

another thinks to palliate a punctured

YOUNG to be Seated.

Moscow. Dec. 25,-It would seem
from late reports that W. W. Young,
populist county commissioner-elsct from
the first district, qualified within the
proper time. This was not believed to
be the case. Young, who lives IN re-
mete part of the county, has stated that
he did not receive the official notifea-
ton of his election until December 2
and returned the proper papers about
week later.
The case OF the state against Neil Nc
Gilvray for horse stealing on trial the
past week in ths district court, has at
traeted considerable attention. The &C.
cussd suffered from'epileptic fits. After
it was found impossible to have him de-
clared insane, the case was thrown out
OF court on account Of flaw in the in
dictment. A new information was filed
however, and the case got into court
again. q. L. Denning, attorney for the
defense, summoned Drs. Watkins, Blake
and Gritman as exper,s to prove the
prisoners unaccountabiNtv. 1t was

BAD BOYS IN THE TOLLS.
A Bunch of Opera House Tickets Stolen

A Bunch of Opera House Tickets Stolen
 From the Park Drug Store.
 Sunday afternoon between three and four o'clock some boys entered Cones drug store, and when they left they took with them bunch of opera house tickets, all reserved for the Leland T. Powers en- tertainment. Yesterday morning the theft was discovered and MT Jacques was noti- fled. Last night about 8 o'clock three boys presented themselves at the opera house door with three of the tickets. Officer Kennaugh arrested them. One told MT Jacques that he was George Smith, that his father was William Smith, and he lived at TO South Main street, over the DEMOCRAT office. Mir Jacques knows the office pretty we'll and he knew that the number was not TO. After his arrest the lad gave the name of Joseph Callahan. The others were Patrick Kelly and Will liam White. During Monday a boy, who gave his name as George Dillon, returned fifty of the tickets to MT Cone, saying he found them. After 8 o'clock a man pre- sented another of the tickets at the door. This ticket was traced to young Callahan. This was the testimony introduced this morning, and the case was adjourned until tomorrow morning. William McNellis was also in the tolls. He and young White were charged with theft of articles from Reid & Hughes store. They will be tried tomorrow

FIRE BOARD MEETING.
The Matter of Appointing Hosemen ant
 Fireman Tabled.

The Matter of Appointing Hosemen and
 Fireman Tabled.
 Mayor Kilduff presided at the meeting of the board of fire commissioners last night.
 communication received from the board of finance recommending that strict compliance with the requirements of the city charter, section 28, in relation to claims against the city, be insisted upon, was accepted.
 The bill of D. E. Carroll for damage done to his wagon by the fire truck was referred back to the commissioners by the board of finance. It was voted to refer the matter to the city attorney.
 Commissioners Hart and McAuliffe were appointed to act with a committee from the road board in regard to the two horses which are at No 2's engine house which belong to the load board.
 Chief Snagg recommended that the fol- lowing persons be employed as paid fire men: William Keegan, as permanent hoseman of Phoenix, No 1; Sidney Carey, as permanent fremen of Citizens Go, No ?; and Edward R. Munson, as permanent hoseman of Citizens Co, No ?. It was voted to lay the matter on the table until the nex meeting.
 Commissioner McAuliffe reported for the committee appointed to see about using electricity as means of lighting the fire company's houses which are now lighted by gas, that it would require ninety-one in- candescent lights to take the place of gas in the different houses. The total cost for one year would amount to S695.25. The matter was tabled.
 Some members of the board thought that the appointment of few call men at the different houses at a small salary would be cheaper and give better satisfac- ton than the addition of a few permanent men located at one or two of the houses.
 The board also discussed thesadvisability of extending the fire limits and decided to have a new layout presented to the court of common council at the next regular monthly meeting.
 A. G. Griswold purchased some old hose which was stored in No 2s house, to be used in flooding the ice at the rink on the Manhan.
 The board appointed Chief Snagg and Commissioner Hynes a committee to sell the wagon which is stored at No 4s house to the American Pin company.
