STATE Tories, printed at Aus
tin by Jeff MCLemore, AYERS that
Texas is in the grasp of a printing
trust. Topics goes on to say that
1t not only robs the public that
must have printing done. but is
robbing our state. city and county
governments. So brazen has it
become that it has printed a
schedule of prices to be charged
and forbids its members doing
work for less than the price named
in this little book. " What McI.e-
more says must contain some truth,
or he would have been confronted
by libel suits before his magazine
was dry. 1t therefore appears
that there are other trusts in Tex
as besides insurance trusts, lumber
trusts and office trusts. There
even appears to be a little trust
over i'll Flatonia The Argus this
week contained the following
notice: After February LIST,
1906, most all the wood-haulers,
west of the Sap railroad, will
charge s.. so per cord. This item
of news was furnished the Argus
officially. D." If trusts and combines
continue to increase as rapidly
in the future as they have in the
past, it won't be long before one
half of our citizens will be mem
bers of trusts and the other half
members of trust investigating
committees. Some trusts are good;
some are demuition bad A good
trust is marriage. Still another is
old-time religion. The worst trust
of all is the country newspaper,
for it trusts everybody and every
thing and never gets trusted. If
our time wasn't short, or paper
and ink expensive, or our columns
too crowded we might indulge in
an old-fashioned dissertation OH
trusts from the littlest to the big
qest and from the oldest to the
latest -Hallesttville Herald.

NEW COUNTERFEIT NOTE.
Secret Service Men Give Description Of
Bogus $40 Bill.

San Antonio, Texas, Feb. L.
Government secret service men
in this city have received notice
from Washington to look out for a
counterfeit SO note which is in
circulation. The note is of the
series of 1901, check letter 4, face
plate No. PIP, back plate No. 121,
J. W. Lyons, registrar: Ellis H.
Roberts, treasurer; portraits Of
Lewis and Clark. The general ap-
pearance of the counterfeit note is
deceptive, particularly the back of
the note. While the treasury num-
bers are too heavy they are of good
color and formation. In the por-
trait of Lewis the left eye has
decided cast upward. There is
period between Washington" and
d. c." instead of a comma.
There is no period after the N"
after the signature of the treasurer
of the United States. The counter
felt is about a quarter of an inch
shorter than the genuine and the
DaDer Is thick and stiff The back
of the counterfeit is several shades
lighter than the genuine.
