The attention of our readers is called
to the platform of the Democratic L'arty,
to be found in another column.
Mr. G. E. Ballew, a citizen of this
county, residing about lour miles north-
east from McKinney, was greatly re-
joiced one day last week at the arrival at
his house of a son, whom he had not
seen or heard of for eighteen years. Mr.
Ballew was married A. D., 1SCG, in the
State of Georgia. His wife survived this
marriage eighteen months, leaving the
above mentioned son, John L. Burton
Ballew. The motherless boy was taken
by his maternal aunt, Mrs. Allen Bailey,
to care lor as her own child. Soon after
Mr. Ballew started for Texas to select a
permanent home. While he was West
Mrs. Bailey took the boy and went to
Indiana, without letting the lather know
where the boy was, alleging as a reason
she thought Ballew would marry again,
and the bov would have to serve a step-
mother. For years Mr. Ballew hunted
his lost boy. Not finding him he married
again, aud as there were no questions
asked, Mr. Ballew did not tell that he
had ever been married, and his present
wife was in complete ignorance of the
fact until the lost son found the father.
When it was made known to her that the
young man who had just arriyed was the
son ot her husband, she said if it was a
fact she was willing to receive him as a
son. The way the young man found Ins
father was through an aunt, a sister ot
Mr. G. E. Ballew, whom he had not
heard of for eighteen years until a short
time ago. This sister, however, had
known ;rll the time of the wlieieabouts ot
the boy. The day before the arrival of
young Ballew, Mr. B. had a visit from a
sister, Mrs. G. W. Brannum, whom he
had not seen for twenty-three years. So
it seems that Texas, and especially Collin
County, is becoming the place, not only
lor the re-union of ex-Con federate and
ex-Federal soldiers, but the place where
the happiest re-unions take place, that of
friends and relatives; faint shadows of
that re-union which is in store for the
veteran and the humble worker who en-
dures the toils, cares and tiials of this
life.

The Collin Guards returned home
Thursday morning ol last week, all look-
ing very much tanned but in good spirits,
and report having had a*splendid time.
In regard to some of them having diso-
beyed rules and having been put in the
guard house our information was wrong.
Not one of our boys got into the guard
house, and we are proud to hear of them
having conducted themselves in such a
high-toned, honorable way. The erection
of an armory is being talked. One good
citizen has offered $i>0, another $10 and
another followed, and the movement is
beginning to take shape.
We hear of several cases of sickness in
different parts ot the county, some of
which is flux. In such cases we would
recommend the following antidote : Hall
a teaspoonful of Epsom salts and the
same amount of common salt, dissolved
in about half a cup of water, used three
times a day, will cure ninety-nine cases
in a hundred of bloody flux. There is
probably nothing better for common
bowel complaints. A child's dose should
be lessened in proportion. This simple
remedy will save sorrow from entering
many a household if the attention is
given it that it deserves. It came to us,
vouched for as above.
Ij team took fright last Friday and
keaiiK near smashing things up, only lor
;5th.e itimely appearance of two or three
"fbravts^en.
Call and have your measure taken for a
nice pair of boots or shoes at R. L.

We wish to lay in our supply ot Winter

^ When we see an able-bodied man
lounging around saying he can't get any-
thing to do we have our doubts whether
she wants fo do anything or not.

"better work and as good prices at
Bomar's.
'iliwc wishing to send a paper to rela-
tives baek in the old State* could not do
better than send the Gazette, as it gives
the county news and has a good word to
gay ot our people. Come in and subscribe
now.
We have one more mouth in which to
prepare lor active operations ere "the
leaves begin to turn." We must antici-
pate the big cotton trade which will soon
be Jnpon us. The farmers all know of
our supeiior facilities and propose to
avail themselves of them this Fall.
McKinney must meet them at her doors
and assure them that they are welcome-
not only because they have come to trade
here, but because they have come to visit
us and to enjoy our hospitalities. Let us
busy ourselves during the remaining in-
active days of this month putting the city
in order. Have we room enough and
proper accommodations for the teams and
loaded wagons ot our farmers? Other
cities are making such institutions serve
as the basis for argument in their favor.
Have we watering places within easy
reach ? This matter must be attended to.
A locked cistern has no charms for a
farmer who leels lor his thirsty team, and
it has too much the appearance of selfish
reserve. To be sure we have plenty ot
desirable boarding houses, where our
visitors can secure good fare at reason-
able rates. This, ot itself, is a blessing.
Indications are already abundant that
our merchants will have larger and better
stocks of goods than ever before. The
most careful buyers of all the prominent
houses, if not already there, will soon
visit the Eastern markets, and all will fio
with a determination to spread them-
selvesf and bring on stocks that will be
equal to all possible demands. In short,
we may assure the public that McKinney
will be in order for the grand business
festival of 1S80, and by her bounty, good
management, liberality and courtesy,!
will abundantly reward and bless the j
labors of the husbandman.
A man named Philetus Grow happened
to^i very painful accident last Thursday,
in which he had the misfortune to lose
three of his fingers on the left hand, his
hand having been caught in the bolting
machinery of Rurrus' Mill, a mile north-
east of the citv.

How to Make McKinney Hum.
Personal Mention.
This is how we can make staid old j Mrs. li. W. Rhine was visiting in Dallas
and dust: Give us ; Friday.
We have not had a chance to write a
local about the "beautiful mud" since
the Gazette was launched. The usual
salutation, "It's fearfully hot, isn't it," is
getting old, and it makes a man blush to
talk to him in that wav.
The party at the residence of Mr.
Walker, living live miles south of McKin-
ney, Monday night last, given in honor
of Miss Mattie Calhoun, of Dallas, who
is the guest of Misses Tommie and Mell
Walker, was a most enjoyable affair.
Dancing was the order of the evening,
which was kept up until the wee small
hours of morning, when the young folks
departed, feeling much the happier for
having attended.
Dr. Abbott's team ran away Saturday.
He had given the lines over to a negro to
hold, but the negro let the horses go mid
proceeded to attend to something else
than his own business with the above re-
sult. Besides having his fine buggy
smashed up, the doctor will in all proba-
bility lose two of tiic finest buggy animals
in the city, owing to the flight given,
rendering them unsafe to work jn a
buggy.
A lamp explosion came near taking,
place in Howard Bros.' Restaurant, Sun-
day night. Alter the lamp had become
fully envoioped in flames John Stouts
stepped up, seized the mass ol flames and
coolly walked into the street and set it
down as though it was an old oy6ter can.
He got an old sack and proceeded to put
a stop to such doings.
Well-digging is the order of the day in
Collin County. The people seem actually
to be somewhat alarmed, and propose to
dig lor water, as waiting for it to come
.from above has proved a waste of time
It is said that well-digging is now going
on to a greater eueqt than ev;jr known
before in this town or county.
What would the reporter do for some-
thing about which to write if it were not
for the sidewalks, the Literary and Jesse
Shain's livery stable? It looks as though
fate had thrown all these interesting
items in our path, go as to make life easy.
A general row took place at the Elm
Saloon, Satuiday night, as is always the
case when a crowd gets lull of mean
whiskey. One yonng man was struck in
the head with a glass and otherwise cut
up.
The Santa Fe extension is graded as
far as Farmersville, a distance of thirty-
eight miles, and the track is laid as far
as East Fork, twenty-eight miles from
Dallas.

Mrs. W. 11. Powell and Miss Lena
Benge are visiting friends in Bon ham.
J. M. Devault, our enerprisin£r grocery-
man, was in Dallas last Friday, on busi-
ness.
Mrs. Eliza Compeer, of Waco, is visit-
ing her sister, Mrs. F. M. Ball, of McKin-
ney.
Will Talley, salesman for Mountcastle
& Co., spent a few days in Sherman this
week.
Miss Lula Lilian!, after haying spent a
pleasant time in Weston, returned home
Sunday.
G. C. Mountcastle, our prominent dry
goods man, went to Dallas this week, on
business.
Mis ses Sallie and Alice Fitzhugh will
leave this evening for Piano, to spend a
few days.
It. F. Cooke, of Allen, father of our
young friend, John Cook, has moved to
Cooke County.
Cotton picking will soon be the order
of the day all over the county. Then the
wheels of commerce wifl begin to move
more rapidly, and McKinney will be
lively and happy.
The coin crop is made, and it is safe to
say that Collin County will have enough
for home use and a good deal to spare
too. She never falls far short on that im-
portant tompoiind, the "staff of life."
Merchants are getting their houses in
order to receive immense stocks of goods,
so that nothing will be wanting to make
this city the "Queen of (Jollin" during
the near approaching Fall and Winter.
A certain music dealer in the State says
there is hardly a farm house between
Farmersville and McKinney, in which
there is not a piano or an organ, The
poet says: 'A Jove for music snows a
gifted intellect."
Pretty Women.
All women look attractive when their color
and complexion is clear. If your skin la sallow
eyes dull. yon are bllions, secure a box of Wil-
liams' Australian Herb Pills, take as directed,
and the feeling of languor will leave yon, your
eyes brighten, and yoa are another woman.
Try them. Price85 cents. U:ly
terprise, harmony, advertising, cordiality,
cheap property. Healthy locality. Good
Country tributary. Talk about her.
Speak well of her. Help to improve her.
Advertise in and read the town papers
Patronize its merchants. Faith, exhibited
by good works. Honest competition in

Elect good men to ofiicc. Speak well of
her public spirited, enterprising citizens,
and be one of them yourself. Remember
that eyery dollar invested in permanent
improvements is that much on interest.
Always cheer on the men who go in lor
improvements. Your portion ot the cost
will be nothing only what is just.
The roads leading into the city should
be looked alter and placed in a better
condition at once, as good roads insure
better trade. Especially should this be
done before bad weather comes. Let's
not come the "Arkansaw Traveler" on
the road and bridge question.
The wedding bells are ringing. Listen
