THE FEUl).- HOW T«e FACTIONS KEPT TOWN FROM KROWIAG. Nesther Would Give In and (he (eaaty Suffered- The Same Fopu- UtUn for Twenty Years. My first day in Cottonville was spent in search of information. I was going to hang out my shingle in the little town, and sis there were not more than half a dozen lawyers there, 1 thnight that my chances weft rather promising. “Cottonville, sir, is holding her own,” said the landlord of the hotel where I had engaged iward. .“Yes, sir, there is no doubt about that— she holds her own.” “What is the population ?” I asked. “Sis hundred and sixty-su by last year’s census,” was the reply. “And how many by tne former ceflsns? “Just the same sir,—as I said be fore Cottonville is holding her own.” “But it does not look like prog ress/’I said, “for a town to gain no inhabitants m tfri yeariT" " “Oh it is all right,” laughed the landlord,.“we don’t want any boom. We are going to hold our own, you know.” After dinner 1 took a walk down the one business street of the town and made further inquiries. There were two weekly papers an$ the editor of The Bugle informed me that he had 666 subscribers in the town and county. Five minutes later the editor of The Trumpet told me that his circulation in the same territory was 666. I called bis attention to the fact that the Bugle had the same number of subscribers. “Yes, I know,” he responded, “we run along very evenly. Cottonville is about equally divided and the county is the same wayin everything.” I walked off meditating. It beat anything in my experience. Strolung along a back street I sud denly became conscious that some body was trying to attract my atten tion. He was a rosy-faced old gentleman with a genial smile playing around the corners of his mouth and a good humored twinkle in his blue eyes. When he caught my inquiriuj glance he introduced himself and toll me that t had done the right thing in deciding to locate iu Cottonville. “It is the garden spot of the earth,” •aid Colonel Biggers, for that was his name, "and if you will simply assert yourself you will do well here.” This was rather mysterious and as I showed a desire for further infor- tnatlon, tha nalamd ravried tne. to his office, where he was kind enough to gire me the dots, as he expressed it What I heard set me to thinking. Colonel Biggers warned me in a fatherly way against Colonel Stig- gem “Whatever you do,” said he, “don’t get mixed dp with that Htiggers gang. They are public enemies, sir, working against the best interests of the town and county. Why, ilf, they oppose tne in an underhanded way in everything." Looking at his rosy, smiliug face, I felt that the Stiggers gang must be a dangerous crowd and I inward! resolved to have very little to do wit! them. It was plain to me from what Colonel Biggers said that Colonel • Stiggers ana his followers were r& •pouible for the lack of progress that characterised Cottonville and the thought made me indignant. Colonel Biggers was disposed to be Very friendly and I met him half Way. Before we parted we felt like old acquaintances^ The colonel was u public man. He bad held various omeu and his experience and know! edge of the world made him a delight ful companion. Leaving his office, I continued my Itroll aronnd.town. One thing dis turbed me a little. Some of citizens weft pleasant enough, bnt others £ ve me Very black looks and seemed duclined to talk.' As I had been introduced under favorable circum stances to most of them, I could not understand why any of them should give me the cold shoulder, Bnt as the days, weeks mid months railfd on everything became dear to I had been in Co. iviiie a Week fetors I met Colonel Stiggers, The « had avoided me at first, but _ learned that I was a tolerably cleverfellow -he made up his mind to cultivate me. r ftiggers evidently felt interested iff file. He talked like a man of broad and liberal views and his frank and open countenance impressed me favorably. In the cottrce of odr talk We found that we agreed on many subjects ana it worried me to think Colonel Biggers was so badly wrong in his judgement of his fellow-towns impossible to bold a county fair or a church sociable because each party tried . to control it. Young people fell iii love and their matches were broken off by their cruel parents because one family stood by Biggers and the other favored Stiggers. For ten years no new house had been built, no old one had l«eu painted and no fence had been repaired. The citizens were too busy with the affairs of Biggers and Stiggers to look after such matters. The quarrel was felt even iu the collection of street taxes. A Biggers town marshal would get after the Stiggers men one year and the next year a Stiggers marshal would force the Biggers men to pay up. There was the same trouble over the dog law, and the hound became an instrument of partisan oppression. When the judge held court iu Cot- tonville it was easy to see that he and the solicitor were embarrassed. It was hard to tell to what extent the Biggers and Stiggers influence would effect indictments, jurors and wit nesses. BROKEN BOW t- - 5. \ Jt V. But Restored to PERFECT MEALTh »y the use of Sarsapari When Biggers or a Stiggers man went to tlfe legislature the Stig gers ticket of county officers would be elected and the next time the Big gers county ticket would be elected while Stiggers went to the legisla ture. . ^ At times I was ready to swear by Biggers and then I would change my opinions aiid go over to Stiggers. It was hard to tell which was the bet ter man. ' The feud between the Cottonville colonels drew everybody into it If a lawyer or a doctor sided with Big gers, the Stiggers men would not patronize him.. A merchant had to keep his month shut if he wanted the custom of both factions. The con gressman, who visited the town to see about bis re-election, had to confine himself to sonorous platitudes. He knew all about factional division in the county and if he took a drink with Biggers he dined with Stigge’-s; if he shook hands with one he im mediately hunted up the other; if he slapped one on the back he gave the other a friendly dig iu the ribs. I had been iu Cottonville a year when we took a town census. ,pi ’“ result showed 666 inhabitants. At first I had a lot of Biggers clients and then the friends of 8tig- gers. My conservatism and love ol: fair play finally caused me to alternate from one colonel to the other so rapidly that the citisens were unable to understand my position aud my position and my patrons all deserted me. 1 gave the matter my serious con sideration. Not a nail bad been driven in the town in more than ten years and there was no sign of change for the better, The best thing to do was to seek anothtr field, and 1 moved to a dis tant city. Not long ugo I met a- Cottonville man and asked him iiow things were going on in his settlement, “Well,” he answered, “Cottonville 'is holding her own. Biggers is 'top now, but we are going to i Stiggers to the legislature next year.” “How many people live there now P" “Six hundred aud sixty-six,” “You had that number when I wao there ten years ago and also Jen years before that time. “Yes, I know, but you see we are holding our own,” “See here, - ' I said sharply, “you know what t ie trouble is r “Certainly,” said the old fellow, smiling, “It is because our people don’t pull ogether. They are so tangled up wilh the affairs of Big gers and Stiggers that they don’t look after their own business. I tell you, squire, the worst thing iu the world is a conutry rill ige feud. When our Cottouvnle colonels finish their war the town will begin to prosper and not before. All that we can do now is to hold our own. That's the size of it, squire I” I felt that he was right. If Big gers and stiggefs are on deck when the next census is taken I will wager a good round sum that the popula tion of Cottonville will be just six hundred and sixty-sis 1 Wauach P.

Colonel Stiggers and the gentle- urn with him delicately intimated that when I first came to Cottonville they had feared that I was in danger of being misled by Colonel Biggers, "you Will find that they are opposed to progress, against every public im provement and working for their owu •elfish interests.” As I became better acquainted I found that two factions existed in the town aud county. They were about evenly matched. Tho court house was located on a back street because the Biggers and Stigg-rs people could not agree about it The principal of the high school was changed every year for a similar rea son. -The streets were growing up in and weeds because Biggers $5,000 in Missouri Pacific. The at torney mistaking her announced re solution for irony, laughed, but. the woman of wealth persisted. “It is but $5,000,” she said, “and if I lose I shall have just as much to to eat as I have always had aud just as much to wear. It the plans be trayed by these two directors work out I shall make agood deal of money buying Missouri Pacific.” The attorney obeyed the in- ( structious of flie client, invested $5,000, and in less than a month the | proposed consolidation was consum-! mated and the Hartford widow realized for her $3,000 investment $250,000. At the first blush this incident is set down as proof of luck. It was '.imply an unexpected exhi bition fi what in Wall street verna cular Is termed “nerve” on the part of quick-eared and quicker wilted, woman, hiot one person in 10,000 would have given any heed to the conversation referred to and not one of a thousand who might have heard and hveded and who happened to have the money, as the widow had it, would have dared invest it.
