He had been so accustomed to the roar
of wheels in the big brass foundries sur

. SO NOTE IT BE.

In those days when land valued
are booming people away from here
are apt to overlook the fact that
there is a great country down this
way. They do not realize that at
some time not far distant this
Lower Rio Grande country will be
competing with the oldest aud
most favored sections not only of
the great State of Texas, but with
the entire south and west in popu-
lation and agricultural supremacy.
Thousands of homeseekers are
familiar with California, Kansas,
Oklahoma, to say nothing of the
Panhandle, Brazos Bottoms and
hundreds of other rich locations of
Texas, and yet to them the Rio
Grande country is nothing more
than a name. They do not know
that along the Rio Bravo del Norte
that there is an FL Dorado. For
ages no sound save Its own DASH
ing broke the silence along the
Rio Grande; but there has recent

dalgo county is located in the most
favored section OF this great coun-
try, and she is giant. She asks
no favors; does not even ask for
recognition, but is forcing recogni-
ton by her wonderful soil, salu-
brious climate, and splendid
vitality.
Doubters may doubt, and knock
ers may knock, but the wheels of
progress and development will move
all the same.-Hidalgo Advance.

EASES HIS CONSCIENCE
At a Cost of $1,000 in the Big Terminal
Deal at Houston.

The Houston Terminal and Belt
Line Company has conscience
fund, or at least it has the money
with which to start one. An TN
usual deal has developed, wherein
citizen, to ease his conscience,
passed up $1,000 in cash. In doing
so he said:
I can't sleep, and it seems to
worry my wife more than it does
me. I know what you offered me
for the property the first time is
all that it is worth, and I know the
$1,000 raise you later offered and
now say you will give me is far in
excess of the value of my dirt.
l am an old man, and l may
not always have been straight in
all my dealings, but l can't afford
to take advantage of any one at my
time in life. l determined this as
l lay awake last night and rolled
and tumbled. Two thousand dol
lars is not near as much to you as
it is to me, but l don't want it
when it hurts my conscience, so,
Mr.. Lazarus, make out your deed
for the first amount you named
and l will sign it, and so will my
wife.
In winding up the big 12block
realty deal in the Third ward,
which will have involved a cash
outlay of more than a million dol
lars when completed, the conscience
incident referred to is regarded by
the Terminal and Belt officials as
one of the strangest they have en-
countered.
All the frailities that are human
are apt to crop out in such deal
as the Yoakum interests, which are
back of the terminal company,
have been encountering. Railroads
are held in a sort of general regard
as lawful prey by people who have
the chance to best them, and there
are many who do not hesitate &c
scheme to get the long end Of a
deal with them if possible.
As observed. human frailties
show strongly in the li,nelight of
such a deal. Avarice, greed, cum
ming, trickery, may be detected
beneath the surface in many of the
transactions, and it is such that
brings to the strongest contract the
act of conscience referred to-

ANOTHER LAUNDRY CHANGE
r NJ Wilcox Gets Back into the
Harness Purchases Denison
Laundry

After many transfers and changes
the laundry business has finally re-
turned to the old proprietor r. M.
Wilcox. Mr.. Harry Wiblishauser the
last proprietor was doing fine bust
ness and was one of the most popular
laundrymen Denison has ever had.
Mr.. Wilcox returned to Denison after
selling his Upton plant. He had his
home here and many ties and he an
nounced his intention of opening a
second laundry. Mr.. Wiblishauser
on being approached thought it was
better to sell for fair price than to en-
gage in competition which would pro-
badly mean loss to both businesses.
Mr.. Wilcox will maintain the laundry
at its present location until his lease
expires when it will be removed to
the old location on Broadway. Thus
in a short time there will be no evil
dence that two steam laundries ever
existed in Denison. Mr.. Wiblishauser
has made no plans for the future. He
is a fine young man and his success is
assured in whatever he may undertake.
Mr.. Wilcox is an expert laundryman,
his work gave excellent satisfaction
when he was here before and we see
no reason why he should not again
succeed.
