THE ANGLE CHILD.
Kate Crew, the world famous
woman artist, has this year
struck the public right in the
risibles with her funny stories
told entirely in colored pictures
in that greatest of all Sunday
newspaper. THE SUNDAY St.
LOUIS POST-DISPATCH.
A sensible husband once said
to his dear wife: ‘.Susan, don’t
you spend one cent of my money
with merchants who do not ad
vertise in the papers.” The wife
who was a business woman re
plied; You old goose, I learned
better long ago than to go where
I was not invited. You would be
an old bachelor now if you had
not invited mo to be your wife.
Catch me going to a store with
out an invitation, I guess not.

NATURE HIS HELP.
It was in the far south.
“How’s the times?” asked the
tonrist.
“Pretty tolerable, stranger,”
responded the old man who was
sitting on the stump. “I had
some trees to cut down, but the
cyclone leveled them and saved
me the trouble.”
“That was good. ”
“ ies and then the lightning
sot fire to the brush pile and
saved me the ti’oubleof burning
it.”
“R; markable! Bat what are
you doing now?”

Macon at McCrory.
On last Saturday according to
former announcements Hon. R.B.
Macon, democratic nominee for
Congress, spoke here to a large
crowd.
Mx. Macon was in his happiest
mood during the whole speech
! and told us a great many facts,
fie is the only candidate for Con
gress in Arkansas without an
opponent which makes public
speaking a little irksome on his
part; no oppositiou to place
him on his metal.
Mr. Macon took up two charg
es, which he had heard were
made against him in tholastcam
paign. One that he had signed an
instrument indorsing the Dis
trict Court movement. This he
denied and said as he had friends
on both sides, he did not feel like
meddling in local affairs. He of
fered $100 for any instrument of
writing proving said charge.
The News man is satisfied Mr.
Macon did not meddle with the
affair whatever. The next charge
was that he had entered nol pros
in a case of the state against one
Gaines for the consideration that
Gaines go back to Mississippi
County and work for Mr. Macon
for Congress. .Mr.Macon made
this matter very plain and I can
not beleive Mr. Macon capable
of such a trick. Mr. Macon is one
of God's noble men. If going
through that Wynne convention
wasn’t enough to try a man’s
honesty, there is no place this
side of Satan’s domain to test
it.
He then dwelt on the issues of
the day at some length. The re
publicans had not introduced a
bill for the masses since the
| war, but for the classes, bills
! are plentiful. The trusts were'
flie outgrowth of nefarious re
publican legislation. That an an
titrust law had been on the law
books since 1890 but never en
forced.
Repubs are the biggest frauds
on earth always promosing and at
the same time never carrying
them out. He said he believed
I the rank and file of the republic
J an party was honest, but their
leaders were to corrupt to be
safe and yet the party followed
I them. He said it reminded him of
; a party of men going on a hunt.
1 It was a difficult matter to find a
cook in the crowd and finally by
drawing straws one poor fellow
j had it to do. The understanding
1 was the first man that grumb
1 led at the cooking would have to
; relieve unlucky cook. The first
j meal was eaten with a relish, but
j the cook, not liking to do all of
the work while the others enjoy
ed life, decided he would cause a
kick. So for supper he made up
'he dough for his biscuits out of
k flour, i soda and l salt. Ere long
supper Jwas on the table and the
hungry hunters were seated
to relish an evening’s repast.

one of the hunters took a bite of
his biscuit and began to spit. He
said, this biscuit is d--n salty,
(One said, look oat.) but its d-n
good. That is the way with the re
publicans, they will follow their
leaders to perdition and swear
the ruler thereof is perfection.

LETTER FROM TEXAS.
Everybody is wearing a happy
smile since the rain and cotton
picking and gathering corn is be
ing pushed to its full capacity.
Health is good since rain and all
water hauling has stopped. Pools
and cisterns all ran over such
was the enormity of the rainfall
during the month of Sept. Ma
ny acres of cotton were washed
away. Bole worms and bole
weavels nearly cleaned up the
cotton. An old farmer said he
saw 100 acres that would not
yield 10 bales. Bad all over the
county. Some lands may make
a i bale to the acre, while it will
require 15 acres to make a bale
on other lands. Corn is good and
the farmers are selling same at
50 cents per bushel and next
j spring these farmers will be
i compelled to pay 75 cents or
more per bushel. More cotton
has been sold here under Scents
than over it. Honey Grove is
considered one of the best cot
ton markets of northern Texas,
Up to last Saturday, Honey Grove
i has handled 7,000 bales.
In the last few years, the price
of land has advanced from 00 to
50 dollars per acre. After a rain
one soon gets into the mud up to
ones knees. The roads are fine.
Two mules pull 8 and 10 bales to
the load with all ease. They us
ually haul two bales of seed cot
ton, This black land is like the
Republican party; it promises
more and gives less than a:r.
land in the world.
Two of DeView’s briglitos
bo.ys, Robert Winters and Galen
McMurtry, are here picking cot
ton. The boys came here in a
buggy. Atone place, a small
creek had swollen to be about
two miles across. After many
adventures, they safely arrived
here and are well pleased with
the country.
Hoping much success to the
News and its many readers, I
am, Yours truly,
J. S. Haggard.
