THE COUNTY NEWSPAPER.

There is no enterprise more essen ,
tial to the welfare and prosperity of a
community than well conducted
newspaper. 1t is often the case, how |
ever, that the value Of the local paper |
is not held in as high esteem as it de- !
serves to be. 1t is unjustly compared !
to the "blanket Sheet made up from
some big metropolitan daily, and its
value and usefulness to the community
in which it is published is estimated
accordingly. This is great mistake.
A writer in the Roxboro Courier, M.
C. Thomas, Jr., after speaking on the
subject concludes a thoughtful and
we'll considered article as follows:
The county newspaper deserves pat
ronage.
1st. Because it reaches large class
of citizens who would not otherwise be
reached.
At least one third of those who sub
scribe to the average county paper we
venture to say, take no other paper,
and would not take any at all if it
were not tor the one near home. This
class of readers want local news mainly
with which the county paper supplies
them.
and. 1t is a good medium of CON-
munication between the laboring class
es of county, who would not like to
write for a more pretentious paper.
Various little items of news which
would otherwise be lost find their way
into the columns of the home paper,
and are read with pleasure by large
class of people.
! 2rd. 1t is valuable as a means Of
making public announcements of in
terest. Thus the people not only
keep informed upon what has happened
in their county, but also what of i'm
portance is to take place, and are
given sufficient notice to attend if they
wish.
! 4th 1t tends to build up the coun-
ty by advertising its material resources
and its business men. Those who have
had experience in this line, say that
judicious advertising pays. This is true
of towns and counties no less than of in
dividuals. Keep your county and town
we'll advertised and healthy public
spirit will be apt to be engendered
which will result ultimately in solid
boom. The county newspaper is the
proper medium for such advertising.
The citizens of a county should take
an interest in their local papers, gel
men of brains to edit them and then
patronize them literally, and make
them papers of which they will have
! just cause to feel proud.
Every county should have its little
weekly, filled with fresh, breezy locals
short. pointed, practical editorials, ane
the news of national and inter -nationa
r interest. These papers tend to the up
! lifting of the masses, and make then
better citizens.

THE GREAT -PANACEA WAS WHAT
HE NEEDED.-We take the following
from the Chenoa Gazette. 1t says:
The following beautiful lines are sup

son; but, no difference whether Tenny-
sons or some other, they contain as
much truth as poetry: He sat in his door

The number of cotton mills now in
the South, as compared with 1880, has
doubled, while the spindles and looms
have more than trebled, the tendency
being to build mills of greater capcity
than formerly. From 161 mills having
667,S54 spindles and 1893 looms
in 1880, this industry has increased
until there are now 335 mills, with
2,o35,26S splndles and 45,oo1 looms.

The object of the recent incursion into
Colorado and Utah. made by Rock Island
officials of high standing, and which they
termed injecting by chance" is gradually
developing chain of important railway
news. The main link. namely, the close
traffic alliance between the Rock Island
and Denver short line on Salt Lake bust
ness was flashed to the public for the first
time week or so ago. Some railroad men
were inclined to term it an imprCbability.
The official Endorsement, finally forced,
changed their skeptical minds and eradi-
Gated all doubts of the reliability of the
statement published.
The next link of the Texas extension, also
heralded i'll the Denver NelCS, was affirmed
at headquarters. Several days ago Rock
Island official, who is man of few words,
especially to the press. arrived in the city
on flying trip to Salt Lake. Develop
ments showed that he carried rather i'm
portant item. Since perusing its contents,
a thorough investigation among local Off
Gals here and at Colorado Springs has
disclosed the fact that the ever ambitious
Rock Island is reaching for San Francisco
and California traffic Publication Of
some plans in advance ofttimes spoils ar
engagements and incurs the everlasting
displeasure of the roads involved. 1t is
rumored that the Rock Island is in
buO duuCl DllA-LN III W ulOu
cifc alliance. Official advices tend
that way. 1t probably will be, but
there will be long string attached
in the agreement The Rock Island is
tainted with CBsarism. Its ambition to
traverse the globe is well known. 1t wants
everything in sight. The latest tip from
headquarters, and one that local officials
endorse as much as they can without plac-
ing their heads in jeopardy, is a coming al
Nfan HRvffh hn ,fpsal 80 nj,
MIA business. When the Denver Short
Line is completed, and the connecting link
is made, the Rock Island will, it is claimed,
'jllt' the trauscontiuental alliance as far
as west bound business is concerned The
Northwestern is jealous of the Rock
1slaLd's rapid reach into western territory
The two rivals will be Kilkenny cats hung
over clothes line, on west-bound business
in the present transcontinental scheme
The Vanderbilt systems have. catered to
President Gable in order to secure a south
western outlet, which the Northwestern
system does not enjoy. BY forming a close
traffic alliance with the Central Pacific it
will give the Rock Island short line to
California and thus reach the apex of Mr..
ST. Johns ambition.
That such an arrangement is to be
adopted, upon the completion of the Denver
short line, is foreshadowed by the Nelrs
upon the authority of men whose talk gen
orally ''goes" as being straight. 1t will
give the Central Pacific through line to
Chicago and the muchly sought eastern
outlet. Future developments will be
watched with interest, especially by the
rival lines. If consummated it will greatly
benefit Denver and divert some of the Cali
fornia travel that now goes by Cheyenne.
Being the shortest line, the new route will,
no doubt, be ;eeding popular with the
travelling public.

DRAFT HORSES
Among the Most Important, as
Viewed by Col. Colman of the
Rural World.

AmOuk IuO NAOSG AmpOrGnnN, dS
Viewed by Col. Colman of the
Rural World.
Taking all things into consideration,
one of the animals Of most Importance
to mankind is the draft horse. Not any
special breed of horse, but horses used
for draft purposes, as many are so used
that do not belong to any of the espe-
cial draft breeds.
The horse used for draft purposes
furnishes the motive power to supply
almost all human wants. He plOws the
fields of the world and carries the crops
of the world to market. The products
of farm, factory, workshop and mines
are moved by horse power, and without
this, mans must faithful friend, the
wheels OF commerce would stop.
Such being the Importance of the
draft horse, it follows. or should follow,
as matter of course, that great inter-
est be taken to breed the best suited an
imalS for this purpose.
1t is here that the farmer is especially
interested, for to him does the world
look for its supply of horses, aud to him
that 1t IS ready to pay liberal price If
he has what is wanted.
In saying that many horses are used
for draft purposes which are not of
draft breeds it is not meant in any way
to approve continuance OF that system
further than necessity requires. Any
man who keeps his eyes open can see
every day many light horses put
to draft purposes for which they
are utterly unsuited, simply because
their owners cannot find good draft
animals for their use. No man
who wishes to buy team for draft pur-
poses takes small team of choice. He
only does so because he cannot find the
has them to sell but knows how difficult
it is to find market for his understood
horses. They are looked over and bid
down until he is discouraged, and his
profits melt into thin air, while the big
grades that his neighbor raised are
snapped up at prices that seem almost
fabulous.
1t is not possible, and indeed not de-
sirable, for every farmer to raise pure
blood draft horses, but it is possible and
eminently desirable that he raise grade
drafts instead of the little understood
scrubs that are now such drug on the
market, and which must Of necessity
become more and more so from year to
year. How can this be done? Simply
by breeding your common mares to
pure blood stations of any of the draft
breeds. If this is done, the colts will
be large and salable. They are as easily
and as cheaply raised as are the scrubs,
and worth twice as much when three
years old.
These are good reasons for not using
any but pure-blood sire. A good
stallion of pure blood may be depended
upon to get colts which resemble him.
This is because of the fact that being Of
