A Christmas Trip.

The thousands of Texans who
came from the South Atlantic
States find much pleasure in revert
ing to the happy days of long ago
when they were children, and Of
ten they awake at night to recall
those scenes of yore which gave
to life charm, and which now
come in later years as visions of
Joy. There is a tender spot in
every heart for the old home, and
the memories which cluster about
the dear old spot are solaces in the
weary. weary struggle we make
day by day to build in our new
EldOrado a home to which our
children in future time will turn,
as we turn now to the old place
where our loved ones in the even
ing of life await the final summons.
The Texas & Pacific Railway
Company again offers you the op-
portunity to 90 Shack to the old

bread and shelter. And at the
end of that four years we see hope
only in tho success of the Peoples
party. The democratic party has
lost the confidence Of the people,
and 1t is entitled to have lost it.
Close up the ranks of the Poo
pies party; weed out the traitors
and the week knees, from wards
up to the national committee. In
our party lies the only hope of
freedom for the laborer, white or
black. We present the only or
ganized force opposed to the en-
croachmeDts of wealth and corpo-
rations upon the rights of the
working man. We must spend
the four years in hard work pre-
venting the absolute enslavement
of the poor,.the working man, and
at the end of the four years the

The Election.

Mckinley is unquestionably
elected; exact figures are not yet
to be had, but he will have from
twenty-five to forty votes majority
in the electoral college. Many
Western states that were consider
ed safe for silver have gone for
him, and the entire middle West.
This cannot be looked upon as a
reputation of Free Silver. 1t is
not that, but it is the unmistaka-
BILE evidence that the people have
no faith in the promises of the
democratic party, and even their
great faith in Mr.. Bryan was not
strong enough for them to trust
the destinies of the nation for an
other four years to even him, back
ed only by the democrats, and their
promises to do better, if they were
given another chance.
The democrats have virtually
wrecked this country in the last
four years, and they have simply
been buried under the wreck. The
people have voted for the republi-
can ticket in sheer desperation.
The indications are that both SEN
ate and house will be republican so
we will have an outright republi-
can administration for the next
four years; there will be nothing
to interfere with their plans and
the people will watch them fear
fully, almost without hope.
They have declared that an era
of prosperity will open almost at
once, and that the whole people
will be prosperous under McKin-
ley. 1t seems that majority of
voters have preferred to trust them
rather than the democrats, whose
broken promises and absolute fail
ures are so fresh in the minds of
all of us. We do not have any
faith in these promises; we can
see nothing but benefit to a few
favored classes in the legislation
proposed by them; and we can see
nothing but four years OF increas-
ed hard times and struggles to get

Dear Sir The election passed

60 votes polled at Vivian, a very
good vote for this box. The vote
was as follows:
For Bryan So, Mckinley 9.
For Congress, B. W. Bailey IS,
H. w. Ogden 33, r. P. Hunter 1.
The two votes for Mckinley were
through a mistake. lam proud to
say that the election was car
cried out according to law. / hope
all the boxes in the State were
carried out as well, for if there is
anything / do abhor, it is fraud in
the vote, / consider it the lowest
down principle that a man can be
guilty of, and the ballot box stuff
fers are responsible for the condi-
tion that our government is in.
The fraud and rascality that were
practiced in our late election has
added several votes to the Peoples
party in this precinct.
Yours Respectfully,
