ADVERTISING TOWN.

Suppose the citizens of Henderson
should adopt some thorough and sys-
tematc means of advertising the town,
as is done in many of the western
States, would it not be money we'll
spent9 We think so. With our
superior advantages OF soil, climate
and natural resources, there is no good
reason why our section should not
greatly increase both in population
and wealth in few years. If one-half
the efforts were put forth to advertise
and boom this part of the gceat moral
vineyard, Henderson would not long
remain comparatively unknown to the
outside world. Read this:
"The people of Tucson, Arizona,
by public subscription, buy 5000
copies of their local paper every month
for the purpose of sending it abroad,
and in addition, pay Saoo month for
the expense attending swrite ups of
their city. Lamar, Colorado, pays two
thousand dollars for a pamphlet and
800 month for "write ups in the
local press. The M0Nlt0r, of Fort Scott,
Kansas, is paid $1,000 for talking up
the advantages of that city. Hutchin-
son, Kansas, claims to pay the NeaOs
$4,000 for running morning paper,
and Newton does better by subscribing
$4,000 to have the Republican boom

THURSDAY, DEC. II, 1890.
NINE YEARS OLD.

The GOLD LEAF this week cele-
brates its ninth birthday. The first
issue was given to the public Deem
Der 18th, 1881.
From the unpretentious town that it
was then, with but one brick building
in the place, and doing a small vol
ume of trade, Henderson is to-day a
wide awake, progressive and enter
prising young city, with electric lights,
water works in construction, popula-
ton of more than 5000 people, and
Is doing a business, both in buying
and selling, second to no place of its
size in the State. 1t has many splen-
did business houses that would be a
credit to any city of $4,000 popula-
ton, four handsome brick churches,
and many elegant private residences,
tobacco warehouses, prize factories,
smoking and plug factories and numer-
Gus other industries and enterprises,
all of which have sprung into being
within that brief period.
The paper has passed through many
strange vicssitudes and trying circum-
stances, but it has lived and grown
and prospered. Starting upon the
ruins of half a dozen similar enter
prises, the ghosts of which ratified their
dry bones about the field and pointed
the skeleton finger of warning at us,
there was. indeed, little to encourage
or inspire hope in the breast of one
who had nothing but a strong arm
trained to work and not afraid of it
and resolute determination to put
that qualification to the test.
Yes, we had more-we had friends,
even among strangers, and to them is
due the existence and prosperous con-
dition of the paper to-day.
In speaking few days ago of the
growth of Henderson during the past
nine or ten years, we were felcitating
ourself upon the fact that the growth of
the town had been the prosperity of
the GOLD LEAF, when an enthusiastic
friend declared that The success of the
paper had been the progress of the
town. While we, of course, appreciate
the high estimate placed upon the
efforts of the paper to be of substantial
benefit in the upbuilding of the town
and community, we do not claim
that much.
We have no promises to make for
the future, save to say that as we have
been honest in what we have done, it
shall be our earnest endeavor to i'm
prove upon the past.

A temporary remedy is not sufficient
we want permanent cure. and TO Sc
cure it the farmers must find out the
character and cause of the disease and
prescribe for it intelligently. The high
tariff is one of the principal Causes of
existing conditions. 1t is the fruitful
mother of trusts, monopolles and
financial combinations of all kinds
in word, of the money power. Any
political diagnosis that ignores this
fact is incomplete and worthless, and
any treatment which overlooks its ex-
istence will he found sooner or later
to have been laundering and danger

The Globe IS full of snap and go and
will do its duty in advertising the
town, but the citizens have duty to
perform also. A newspaper can do
much for community, but it can not
do everything. This is pointer that
some people do not seem to realize,
however.

Ballot Reform in Maryland.

The Maryland papers that favored bal
lot reform law are calling the attention OF
Senator German, of that state, to the fact
that his prediction that the Australian bal
lot system would be hurtful to the Demo-
cratic party has not proved to be true in the
first election held under the ballot reform
law.
A municipal election was held under the
reform law last Wednesday in Cumberland,
Allegheny county, republican stronghold.
The democrats elected the mayor, city clerk
and all thecouncilmen except one. Ademo-
cratic victory was not expected by either
party. Indeed, the republicans felt sure
that they would elect their ticket, as they
had in former years.
The voting was carried on satisfactorily,
and the scenes at the polls were in striking
contrast TO those Of previous years All
voted who desired to. aud there were no
evidences of bribery and no disposition to
create disturbance. When a voter had
cast his ballot he went about his business,
and consequently there were no crowds
around the polls. The illiterates and the
blind were assisted, in accordance with the
provisions Of the law, in preparing their
ballots, and, although there was little
friction at first, owing to the lack of expe-
rience, the election soon proceeded as
smoothly as any one could wish.
The result of the election in Cumberland
leaves no doubt that the Democratic party
10 Maryland has nothing TO fear from the
Australian method of voting. If the re-
form is so satisfactory in Maryland, why
should it not be tried in states south of
Maryland, as it is being tried in states
north of it. 1t is time that something were
being done in this state toward ai-
opting the Australian system, or
modification of it. 1t is pretty certain
that the next legislature will be
asked to pass ballot reform law, and the
people ought to be preparing to express an
opinion as to whether or not they want
such law. If it is a good thing it ought
to be adopted as soon as possible The
quicker good thing is utilized the better
it is for all interested in it.
