Editor Leonard Of the Gainesville Register
knows one short phrase which will revlvify
dying newspaper man quicker than common
salt, or double-d.siillsd pouchong Evidently
sollloquisIng from experience, be continues:
An editor lay dying The Doctor bent over
MN and SAID ''Po0r man, cir uiaton almost
gone The dying man summoned all his
remaining energy, and shouted: You're a

The road to wealth and greatness for all
cities Is through the factories located therein.

The Houston Post illustrates the oil

The Posts illustration was intended TO give
to the pubic one theory. OF course, there
may be others. South and East Texas nay
IN the worid--in the light of experleuce--thls
theory seems more than probable. At any

Tennessee appreciates genius. Hon. Ed.
ward A. Carmack has been ele:ted United
States senator. He is brilliant rsd-headed
and poor in socket, He Is A, and before he
entered congress SIX years ago, was manag-
ing cd tor OF the Memphis Commercial -Ap-
peal and a writer OF great force. C1mWk,
Connolly and Taylor are a trumv.rA.e o.
hr.gn. men. aud all three haven't money
enough to pay for one OF Senator Hanna 5
"coniug-out" parties -Dallas Beau Monde.
Brilliant, red hair and poor in pocket are
all right, but Mr., Jirmack never was man
aging editor of tho ommercialAppeai. He
was for years chief editorial writer on that
newspaper as MIR. Connolly is at the present
time. The ablest managing editors Of the
country spend very little tine writing. Mr..
Carmack deserves his great honors and MS
newspaper friends everywhere are glad to
See him wear them SO be2omingiy.
