GLORY OF THE UNITED STATES

from w OrlQ S w Ork:
To my view, what makes the great
ness of the United States among the
nations is less it's tremendous economic
lions and its consciousness of liberty
in every field of action and life. This
comes back to saying that what has
made it's greatness is less the country
than the men who inhabit it. It is less
the great expanse of its territory and
it's natural resources of soil and of
wealth underground than the qualities
and the energies of the people who
have cultivated the magnificent plains
and the beautiful mountains of North
America, and made them pay. Nature
had provided between the two oceans
for a great empire and a great nation.
But for this empire to be born and for
this nation to take form, live and pros
per, it was necessary that it should be
| inhabited by people capable Of exploit
| ing and binding together these vast ex-
panses. In this sense one might say
| that it is the American who has made
| America, although between the Allan"
| tic and the Pacific, as elsewhere, there
was a mutual influence of men on the
| land, and the land on men. But as
| great as this. last was, the first seemf
| to have been even more powerful, an6
| this is one of the causes, which from
my rcint of view, bring about the
originality and the superiority of thu
! United States.
! The causes of it's success and of it:
greatness are not merely materia
causes due to the generosity OF nature
| toward it. They are, above all others
! moral causes, due to the character, tht
| education, the energy and the spirit
| enterprise of Americans.

BE A STRAP!
From Mems Wear:

During any of the crush hours the
new Subway cars suggest the idea Of
a gymnasium. On each side Of the car
depend twentyfour freshly fashioned
straps, substantial in make and appar-
emily capable of sustaining excessive
weight. No false economy has been
practised here, for it's the straps that
pay the dividends. The straps applied
in our youth, as now, was opposed to
the seating capacity. Then it chasten-
ed, now it chastens. Therefore don't
sneer at the strap. It has not the COM

SPANGLED LACES.

From the New York Herald:
More elaborate. more expensive. more
strikingly effective are the evening
gowns Of this year than ever before.
It is true that almost every year,
when the new fashions and imported
gowns are first seen, they are fascina-
ting simply because of their originality,
but this winter such an amount OF
hand work, embroidery and elabora-
ton of all kinds is demanded that the
result must needs be very apparent,
and the actual cost of the gown seems
written over it from the beautiful lace
or spangled bertha to founce or
chiffon. lace or embroidered net.
For the ballroom lace costumes. del
icate net, chiffon and the finest point
desprit are more fashionable just at
present than the heavier and far more
serviceable satins and crepe de chene
Apart from the amount of lace and
embroidery necessary, the very fact
that gowns of tulle and chiffon are IN
vogue makes this an expensive season,
as, no matter how great the care taken
it is impossible to keep net gown from
being torn or crumpled in Distress
ingly short space of time. Then. too
there must always he the silk or satin
lining, over which q slip Of net Or chit It !;
fon to soften the effect. The principal
aim of the ysmodmtes this year is to
have the gowns light and delicate; IN
appearance, and undoubtedly this
style is most becoming to the majority

100000 YEARLY FOR GOLF.


Would you imagine that something
like $50,000,000 could be spent yearly
on the game of golf? To begin with,
there are s79 golf cubs in England,
700 in the United States, 632 in canny
Scotland, 1874 in Ireland, forty-three in
Wales and sixty three in different
parts of the continent. There are, all
told, probably not less than 5000 orga-
nizations devoted to golf playing.
These clubs, counting their grounds,
buildings and preliminary expenses, re-
SAC, 900, 900 at $50,000.000; and COM
paratively few Of them can be run at
yearly expense Of less than $4,000.
The average membership Is about 200
and the average yearly subscriptions
OF these 100000 golf players amounts
to nearly $20,o00,o0o. Each of the
players is equipped with an outfit that
costs on an average about $50; and the
yearly purchase of golf clubs, all over
the world amounts, therefore. to
several millions Of dollars.

MANY MILES TO ATTEND COURT
Number of Farmers Tudged to Dawson Monday Morning in
Not o Take Their Mules Out Of Grassy Fields

Rather than take their mules from
work in the fields number of farmers
whose attendance on court was ueces-

ing Among this number was one cit
izen who arose before 4 o'clock to be-
gin pilgrimage of more than twelve
miles, arriving in Dawson at s O'Clock
and answering there" to the roll call
of jurors on time.
This is possibly without precedent
in the county's history, and but shows
the terrible condition of the crops in
this section. A great many of them
are literally taken by the grass, and
the cessation of work for even a short
while would result disastrously.
The Importance, therefore, of keep

ing every hand and mule busy will be
readily seen, and it was this fact that
made the farmers choose to trudge
many miles rather than ride and let
their crops suffer.
The crops of the county are perhaps
in the worst condition on record. The
constant rains of a few weeks ago de-
veloped multitude of grass blades
and in some instances it has been al
most hopeless task to rid the cotton
of them. Rather than attempt it
many farmers plowed up their cotton
and the grass along with it and re-
planted. Rain to any extent at this
juncture will mean the ruin of many
crops and incalcuIable damage to
others.

GRAND JURY HIGHLY CONIPLI-

strongly COmmends Him as Suita-
HE successor to Judge Sheffield,
Who Will Retire from the Bench.
Although q successor to Judge IL.
G. Sheffield, who has signified his in
tentioa of retiring from the bench of
the Pataula circuit at the close of his
present term, will not be chosen until
next year the people are already
taking a lively interest in the matter.
As is well-known, Judge A. M
Raines of the City Court of Dawson
announced sometime ago that he
would offer for the position, and the
news OF his candidacy has been re-
ceived with much favor. Many assur-
ances Of support have come to him
from every county of the circuit, and
there is no room to doubt that he will
run a strong and, as his friends be-
Iieye, winning race. Judge Raines
will enter the race with the united
support of his home people, whose
opinion ofhim as man and lawyer
is fairly represented by the following
extract from the presentments that
were made by the grand jury of Ter
rell county on Monday:
I'VE learn with regret that his hon
or, Judge H. G. Sheffield, will retire
at the expiration of his present term.
He has made an able, faithful and
conscientious Judge, and while we
regret to lose his services we are
pleased to know that Judge A. NJ.
Raines, the very able and efficient
Judge OF the City Court of Dawson, will
be a candidate to succeed him. We
recognize in Judge Raines man Of
wonderful common sense and good
Judgment and one we'll fitted, both by
experience and training, for the re-
SponsiDle position of judge of the SUI
periOr court of this circuit. During
the last three years he has been judge
Of the City Court of Dawson, and has
discharged the duties of this respOn-
Sible position in an able, fearless and
conscientious manner, and to the per-
feet satisfaction of all law abiding
people. Our only regret at his eleva-
ton TO the superior court bench would
be that we would lose his services as
Judge OF the City Court of Dawson.
We commend him to the people of this
circuit as an able, honest and fear
less Judge, we'll worthy to follow the
long line of distinguished men who
have presided over our courts.
The tribute to Judge Sheffield by
the grand jury in the above was also
well deserved, and The News feels sure
that it voices the sentiment of the peo-
pie OF the county, nearly all of whom
are his sincere friends and admirers.
