AN associated news item from
Manila reads: AT Oroquieta, In
Northern Mindanao, two soldiers
entered a native store for the
purpose of buying food. While
there one OF them was killed
by a bolo and his head severed from
his body. The other escaped and
gave the alarm. A company of the
Fortieth Infantry, stationed at Caya-
gan, repaired to Oroqulera and killed
eighty-nlne natives, thirty OF them
being In q single house. Suisse
quently the gunboat Callao, COM
maded by Lieut.. George b Brad
shaw, shelled Orequieta, burning

Eighty-nine lives for one. Thirty
natives In one house massacred
by foreign troops. That Is the record
our army Is making. And Is that
the peace and quiet, civilization and
religion we are asking the Flip
pinos to accept?

The L. & N. is making a special
feature of their Sunday excursions.
The day when their employees
should be given partial rest at
least, they are made to run excursion
trains and do extra work. The day
the law In general terms teaches
Tennesseeans to observe as a sacred
day OF worship and of rest, this
foreign corporation delights to desc
crate. 1t Is their money.making
day of the week. Last Sunday they
ran four excursions. One from
Nashville to Louisville; another
from Nashville to Franklin. KY;
another from Nashville to Franklin,
Tenn, and yet another from Column
bia to Franklin. Either there
should be law to prohibit and pre-.
vent this, or else all the Sunday laws
should be repealed.

CONGRATULATIONS IN ORDER.

WHEN our merchant friends have
good day and prosperous trade, we
rejoice with them and tell it; why
not tell tfIr ourselves?
The last three days the HERALD
has done the biggest subscription
business of Its life. Ii has taken In
more money, 1t has renewed more
subscriptions, it has added more new
names, than for any other three
days in its experience; or to put 1t
stronger, more In these three days
than for any other three weeks; or
to make 1t still stronger and palmer,
we have done ia these three days
the average business for three aver
age months. Wednesday night, that
Is after regular business hours Wed.
nesday, our subscription receipts
lac ked just little of being one hun
dred dollars.
OF course that delights the man
agement very much. And the man
agement, mind you, is hot one man.
1t takes large and competent force
to manage the HERALD, and that
entire force wears broad smile to-
day.
We are gratified at our receipts
we are gratiffed at the large nun
Der of new names added to our list,
and we hope they may all live long
and prosper, and become old and
staunch friends of the HERALD.
But above and beyond all, we are
grateful for the Partially and loyal
support OF our old friends; friends
who have borne with our mistak es,
encouraged our efforts and helped
US on to success. To these old, tried
and true friends, the HERALD owes
its first allegiance.
To have several hundred of these
old friends call and bring with them
not only their money but their words
of encouragement and praise, Is ar
oasis day In the hard life of news
paper work. and such an one a;
makes this life worth the living.
The HERALD is not unmindful o
the advantages money may give
neither does it undervalue tn,
pleasure that may come with ''suc
cess" but the chimmerical baubl
"success," and the filthiness o
, money are not to be compared witt
the genuineness of feeling one en-
+ joys when he feels chat his efforts
a though poor and faulty, hav
+. pleased his friends.

TO OUR MAURY COUNTY
READERS.

The County election was yester-
day. The polls closed just few
hours before our press time. so of
course we cannot give you any reli-
able returns in this issue.
But rather than to have you wait
a week for the news you are so much
interested in, We will to lay
send to our Maury County v o-kly
subscribers a copy of the DAILY
HERALD. containing as full a report
of the election as can be secured at
thatItfme.
This report will not be official or
absolutely correct, but it will nearly
be SO, and will settle the important
and absorbing question of who is
elected Sheriff and Trustee.
SO when you have read the news
in this paper, go or send back to
your post-office the next day and you
will get another paper giving you
still later news.
This is one of the advantages of
having Daily. It enables us to
favor our Weekly subscribers at
times when they are most anxious
for the news. 1t ia one of the many
good reasons why the WEEKLY
HERALD is the best weekly paper
for the country people to take. Be-
cause when anything very important
happens too late for the Weekly
they get it through these special
complimentary editions of the Daily
We would be glad if our regular
subscribers would mention this fea
ture or practice of the HERALD tc
their neighbors who are not taking
the pape:. Perhaps If they knew
they would like to subscribe.

OF course it was all right to kill
the desperate Robert Charles, in
New Orleans. Pity he was not killed
sooner than he was. But after he
was killed; after he had defended
his life with heroic courage deserv-
ing better cause and better life be-
hind it; after be had sold his life for
a thousand times more than it was
worth, and brave officers of the law
had finally succeeded in shooting
him down and killing him, then the
mob-that disgrace to Ameri-
can civilization-suddenly appeared
upon the scene and like cowardly
cayotes began to mutilate the body.
While brave and fearless officers
stood before the death dealing fire
of this depraved and desperate
negro, these covering creatures
the mob-stood away off; out of
dangers harm, waiting for their
prey to be brought down; and then
when he was dead they were brave
enough to jump on him and stick
knives in him and cut him to pieces.
What pity il is that the mob will
b. allowed to exist in America.
How much better it would be IL the
officers would shoot into them every
time they form and teach them that
law is law, aud that the mob has no
place in this Republic under the law

BY this time tomorrow we will

PROBABLY no one will object to
the Presidents agreement to arbi-
trate between China and the other
powers in case the former accedes to
several well-defined conditions. But,
it seems worth while to call etten-
ton to his refusal to arbitrate for
the Beers. Why not for the Beers as
well as the Chinese. In the first in
stance he "waited for the consent"
of England. Did he obtain it for the
second?

did not guess in the pheton contest,
but about as many as could be con-
veniently waited on did. Our sub
scription books will show nearly
twenty times as many dollars re-
ceived Monday as were taken in "a
year ago Monday. Our old friends, of
course, represent majority of this
number, and the HERALD has a
warm place in its heart for old
friends. At the same time we were
glad to welcome quite number of
new ones, and hope they will stay
with us until they get old.

RATHBoNE has declared that, il
arrested, he will pull down the pill
lars of the republican party with
him. The administration can hard
ly let him escape in the face of Bris-
lows report, accusing him of direct
embezzlement, and so the country
may have chance to watch him in
his great Samson feat. But it will
q | be conveniently postponed until
after the election.
