Business Transacted.
The county, owns 160 'acres of
land southwest of town which was-
purchased eight or ten yearv ago
for a poor farm. Since its purchase
it has yielded but'little Tevenue ta
the county; lirhas at times been
leased by farmers but. the uncer
tainty of crops made the-leasingian
unprofitable venture; There is now
an opportunity to make the farm
self-sustaininer, and at the same1
time provide a home for those who
are. county charges, : thus doing
away with the expens'e of maintain
ing them by providing them with
such work as their physical ability
will warrant. The land is under
the South side ditch, and it is said
two propositions have been made
by which a water-right can be ob
tained without an .outlay or" cash.
One comes from a farmer who will
work out a water-right and have it
applied on back taxes which he
owes the county. The other prop
osition is to have the cost of the
right worked out by farmers, who
have no crops and are obliged to
ask for county aid, thus giving
them an opportunity to earn what
they get The farm as at present
is practically valueless.; if irrigated
it would yield, a handsome return.
By accepting either of the above
propositions the commissioners
would certainly show good business
judgment. In the hands of a com
petent farmer the irrigated portion
could be made to yield a large crop
of vegetables, the cultivation and
care of which could, .largely be done,
by those who are now, and others
'who may become, county charges.
Let the commissioners investigate
this matter.
Thereat quite a diversity of opin
ion among our farmers as to. what
the small grain crop will make in
this county. Some pronounce it a
failure, while others say that the
crop-will be fair,, but none claim a

Him Question
rt you could buy-extrauiigh

for ready-made garments, .
would you? -..--"
Yes or No?'
t ?g)
The Occasion.
(pj " r -
The Royal Tailors, of Chi
cago, offer the opportunity.
They say "The Better the
Bigger the Trade, " and the
force of the argument is seen
in the fact that they are doing
business in almost every nook
and corner of the United
States.
They have thousands of cus
tomers for whom year after
year they are making Business
Suits, Dress Suits, Overcoats
anything everything that
enters into the stylish make
up of the outer man..
Facilities and Methods:
They have the completest
tacilities of any tailoring estab
lishment in the world. All
work is done expeditiously
and when 'tis done 'tis well
done.
Faultless work makes faith
ful friends. Their patrons stick
They do business with their
eyes open, they are progres
sive. Clothing made by them
is always up-to-date in fit, fin
ish and form.
Going back to the
Original Question. Is it
Yes or No?
Needn't go to Chicago to
place your order. Needn't even
write.
Just step into the Wilcox
Department Store and have
your measure taken. You
will find the prices as low as
you pay for the same goods
ready made. ;

Sheriff McKinney received a let
ter this week from Charles Parker,
who is serving a life sentence in the
penitentiary at Rusk, Texas. Par
ker will be remembered as the des
perado who was arrested by Sheriff
Doane in Gandy in 1888 on the
charge of robbing a
government
paymaster. After serving his time
for that crime he was turned over
to the Texas authorities and placed
on trial for killing his wife, being
convicted and sentenced to be
hanged. His counsel succeeded in
getting a new trial and he was
sentenced to the pen for life. He
is trying to raise funds to make
another legal fight and wrote the
sheriff here hoping he would help
him. He undoubtedly thought
that Doane was still sheriff.
