There never was a racing season in
the east to prove so disastrous to the
bookmakers, many of whom are we'll
known at Latonia, as the present one.
on every hand is heard the complaint
of large losses by the layers.
BooImaking in the east is not whs
it once was. No more does the public
shoot at the layers at random, but
rather they have forced the boolimat-
ers to gamble on the results. Modern
methods OF arriving at the class ami
form of entries are responsible for this
condition. Where the layers formerly
received a play on nearly every horse
in race, the patrons of racing at the
present time have got the game down
to such fine point thar in an event
which carries ten entries about half
the number will be considered as hay
Ing a possible chance.
That naturally forces the layer TO
form an opinion. and he attempts to
hold ont his favorite in the race, thus
making gamble of his book. Under
the present conditions there is no way
10 avoid this. and for that reason there
are very few prosperous boOl,makere

what right had Mr.. Bailey to be-

And so the simple word of the

The LOCAL MERCHANT.

Some of our exchanges are harp
ing on the Catalogue" buyer and
his want of local pride, public spirit
etc. in sending off for his goods to
the detriment of his home mer-
chant and neighborhood generally.
In some respects these newspa-
pers are right and in many others
they are woefully wrong. That it
is an injury to the country gener-
ally all must admit, for what fix
would much of the country be in
without towns and how could
towns exist without business men or
merchants? We all know that the
nearer to town farm is the more
it will sell for and that the farther
away it is from town the less the
price. And so of town property it
self. The better the town the
more the property is worth and
hence all property owners, aside
from merchants, are as vitality in
terested in the town, in fact more so
frequently, than are some of the
business men. The business man,
if a renter and in this country
many of them are, can move when
the harvest is over, the property
holder must stay and bear the loss,
if any there be. Hence, applying
this rule, which is certainly correct
one, the nearer man lives to
town the greater his interests are
in its growth and prosperity and
there, all things being equal or
nearly so, he should spend his
money. Where merchants prosper
all other lines do well. More peo-
pie are employed, more houses are
built and all these things build up
the town, better the churches, the
schools, the preachers, the lawyers
and all other professional as well as
mechanical lines-progressive all
along the line. And this is not all
for lands, farms, all about the tospatfAa
increase in value in proportion as
the town thrives and property
within the town itself becomes a
gilt-edge investment in place of a
drag upon the market. Farm pro-
ducts find ready sale in the local
markets and you have an ideal COM
munity.
But there is another side TO this |
questionable buyers. The News |
has called attention to his case be- |

That was an uncalled for and I'M
kind remark of Senator Bailey
when he said that if Congress was
cleared of such men as himself and
John Sharp Williams that there
would be a chance for such men as
his opponent, Crane, and Hearst to

Senator Bailey should be
given a fair and impartial hear
ing before Democratic audiences
in every court house in Texas.
He cannot, of course, be there
in person, but he has strong
and able friends in every county
seat and they should vindicate
his course and try to show his
fitness to succeed himself as
United States Senator. And
upon all such occasions Dem.
ocrats who hold contrary views
should be invited to speak up
or shut up. A Bailey meeting
after this order would not be
amiss in Canyon City,

from what they say in the matter,
seem to think he has no side.
One of them referring to this prac-
tice of "buying away from home"
plaintively says;
This not only robs the local mer-
chants of the trade to which they
are entitled, but nine times out of
ten the "Catalogue' buyer gets an
inferior article, and in addition pays
freight.
So' Well, perhaps it is. But,
whose fault is it, In answer to
this question The News is of the
opinion that "nine times out OF ten"
the fault is with the merchant.
Many of these same merchants are
so extremely silent about their
goods, wares and merchandise,
that good many people have
more than half formed idea that
the robbing prices, mentioned by
our exchanges, comes the other
way.
The catalogue houses proclaim
their wares upon the houSetopS. "
They advertise in newspapers,
magazines, send catalogues follow
lowing these with "specials" etc.
etc. and keep presistly at it spend
| ing millions and millions of dollars
talking up their goods and prices
while the home merchant, in many
instances, stays ''mum' in so far
as this class of publicity is concern
ed. And in this age of advertising,
when such conditions prevail, peo-
pie naturally draw the conclusion
/ that the home merchant remains sill
ent because, forSooth, he cannot
compete with them or that his goods
are Of interior quality. The argu-
ment offered by some local news
papers that people should deal with
the home merchant by reason OF
"patriotism and civic PRIDE is
wasted-they will not.
To cause people to deal with
home business men it is only nee
essary for these business men tc
court their trade as does the "cata
logue house. They must advertise
in the papers that circulate in their
trade territory; they must tell Of
their goods and of their prices anC
endeavor in an honest straight for
ward way to convince the buyer
that he, the buyer, can do fully az
we'll with them as he can do in Chi
icago, New York or Dallas. Anc
advertising once or twice is not suf'
ficient, they must stay with it week
after week and month after month
as do these "catalogue' people
This course and this course only
will turn the tide as experience IT
older sections of the State has abun'
dainty proven.
There is nothing so potent as
printer S ink wnen judiciously used
and where this fact is appreciated
and acted upon by business men OF
any town that is worth the name
the catalogue buyer" is as scarce
as hens teeth.

CITY ELECTION NOV. THIRD

The county Judge has issued
his order for the city election to
be held on Saturday Nov. the
third.
The order provides for the
election of a mayor, five alder
man and a marshall and it is
now up to our citizenship to see
that no mistake is made in their
selection.
In the person of the mayor,
who to large extent occupies
4 similar position in the town to
what the county Judge does in
county government, it is we'll to
get man of executive ability
and at the same time conserva-
tive enough to keep within the
bounds of the towns capacity to
pay. If he have some knowl-
of the road to travel over so
much the better for the towns
side Of the ledger. He, by all
means, should be property hol-
der within the town and in 9th
err respects fixture as a citizen.
We have several Just such men.
For the aldermen The News
is of the opinion that we should
go the various parts Of the town,
Say, for instance take one at
large, two from the east and two
from the west end. AS in the
case Of the mavor all should be
property owners and permanent
citizens.
The marshal ought to be d
man who is competent to act as
city secretary, assessor and col
lector-all in one. For mar
shall alone Canyon City at the
present time has as little use
for one as a dog has for Sunday
We have, in this matter taker
the first necessary steps toward
the ma king OF a good town aud
The News is anxious to see eV-
cry citizen who is interested in
Canyon City's future take a
hold in this election aud help
put the right crew on the storm
deck.
In a former issue The News
suggested some concert Of aC-
ton on the part of our citizens
Ia order to get at good ticket
If nothing else be done let every
body talk about it until public
sentiment be crystallized in that
direction. When this is done t
rarely goes wrong
The News man lives in the
west end and to start things to
moving he dominates Frank
Smith as one of its aldermen.
