SENSIBLE ADVERTISING.

The merchants of Springfield, Mass d,
have demonstrated to theirentire salts
faction that the only profitable adver-
tising is in newspapers that are certain
TO be read in the family and have
agreed to cease fooling their money
away on novel methods that are sprung
upon them by professional travellers.
1t is--as the Republican has many
times incidentally remarked-the wise
course to pursue and as several New
London merchants have found out.
1t has many times happened that a
good talker has struck this city and
got away with anywhere from 800 to
500 in less than two weeks and those

WATER in TEXAS.

Here is the way two Texas papers are
discussing how the farmers can get
water in Texas to make crops, while in
Cobb county we have no such problems
to solve. Read this, those who want to
leave this grand State for Texas:
Some day the farmers will quit de-
pending on Providence and prayers for
rain, and will do their own irrigating.
Then we shall not know the meaning of
crop failures from drouth," says the
Louisville Courier-Journal. The time
is coming when enterprising farmers
will save their water for summer use
and apply it in the most scientific man.

thing to fear, and that will be too much
rain.-Dallas News.
Here in Navarro county the farmers
depend too much upon tanks for water
supply. Water can be had at reason
able depths, and the wells should be
put down and the tank water used for
irrigation. The farmer can arrange his
own water supply for small farm in
time by the use of wind mills and make
better crops rain or shine .-Corsicana

VOTING BY PROXY.

There is too much voting by proxy,
A republican once explained his vote
by saying that being sheep raiser he
of course voted the republican ticket.
He allowed his sheep to do his voting.
And yet, in what respect does he differ
from the man whose vote is governed
by the price of hogs, cattle, horses, or
Wall Street Stocks? If as Hanna thinks
money talks, it is not strange that some
allow their property to do their voting.
But if we are to have government
administered according to high ideals)
and fonnded upon the Declaration of
ndependence)men must do their own
voting, and they must cast their votes
according to judgment and conscience.
The Commoner.
Yes, they are the McLaurin stripe Of
fellows, willing to sacrifice every ideal
and principle for money, species of
commercial politics that is discredita-
