The Shiner Gazette lists varied local notices and ads including prices at Carnes Cash Store Seydler's sale items and A C Koepke’s hair trimming and baths. It mentions political speakers Burgess Slayden and a Burges campaign, farm purchase by C F Richter near Gonzales and moving date, plus cotton market slump and other small commerce notes.
A rousing Democratic speech by Mr. Burgess last Friday drew a large audience of men and women. He attacked imperialism, urged government consent of the governed, and criticized Dewey Aguinaldo, McKinley, and the Philippines policy. He also attacked trusts and denied charges from Gonzales reporters, with enthusiastic closing remarks.
A garbled item notes Mr. B and Mr. Searcy in local affairs, with mentions of a pleasant return from Gonzales and a general sense of improving health. It references a last Friday incident involving Mr. Searcy at his desk and a partially unclear political candidacy context.
A parcel of furniture arrived last week and another is due next week. The consignor offers fine bedroom suites from See & Bro and other pieces including four beds with good workmanship. Prices and availability vary at Gio and Seydler's.
