For less than FIRST COST selling;
And HALL TREES too at thirty off,
Are facts well worth the telling.
My MATTINGS now with cotton warp
And those with figures striking,
Are being scattered far and wide,
They're made just to your liking.

Are strong as well as fancy.

Slide back and forth so easy
That though the day may sultry be,
You'll call it cool and breezy.

With all the things you're needing.

POLITICAL sPLINTBRs.

Now since goose neck Mcdonald
(negro) has been kicked clean out
OF that job OF Chairman Green to
fuse with the Populist, what will
he do with that harmony walking
cane so ostentatiously presented
to him by a Bexar county delegate
at the late republican convention,
at Fort Worth.
This presenting OF walking
sticks, by white men to negroes,
has bad odor about it. Ten years
ago there was found in the Texas
senate a negro from black dis
trict, and his white colleagues SO
loved and admired him that they
bought and presented him gold
headed walking stick. The act
did not hurt mis- white colleagues
ia the senate, but that negro never
sat in the senate again and never
will. His name is William Bur
ton, of Fort Bend county, Texas.
Now what is the white delegate
from Bexar county going to dc
about that stick? Will it politi
cally kill the white man or the
negro-One must die. White
men are mighty uncertain and ne
groes will run away.
