Will Retire from Ranchins.

E. N. hubert, who formerly re-
sided three miles west Of this city,
but who for the past three years has
lived in Jackson county on fine
farm he owned in Sans Valley, has
sold that property and will retire
from farming, having made sufficient
to enable him and his wife to enjoy
ease and comfort the remainder OF
their lives.
The purchasers of Mr. Hubert :
farm were M. L. Pellett and Harry
Pellett, who have big pear and ap-
pie orchard near Talent. There are
1923 acres in the tract and the price
was $4,000 cash. OF the place 250
acres is fine fruit land; this Messrs.
Pellett will plant this Winter TO pears
and apples. As Rogue River pears
have sold both this year and last year
iE the New York markets for from
$500 to $3410 car with the pear
blight in the East and California
making it certain that these high
prices will continue, the 200 acres of
pears that the Pellets will have will
make them millionaires in a few
years.

The undertaking is now being ar
ranged for to build a big dam across
Bear creek valley at point where it

create a storage lake of over 1000
acres in extent. OF the progress that

John D. dwell and others, who
are promoting the enterprise OF which
mention was made some time ago,
that promises to be of infinite value to
the farming territory for large area
north and west of Ashland, have
succeeded, it is now reported, in in
teresting wealthy New York syndi-
cate in the scheme to construct a fine
cement dam across Bear Creek. at a
point about ~ miles north of Ash
land, where the banks stand about 20
or 80 feet above the water. The loca-
tion is an ideal spot for the construct
ion of a dam.
"This syndicate, through their
representative, Mr.. dwell, has al
ready been granted an option to buy a
large tract of land in the vicinity of
the proposed dam, and has Portland

LABORERS ARE SCARCE.
isthmian Canal Commission Finds It
Hard To Get Workmen.

Hard To Get Workmen.
Washington. Oct. 3l.-Through
their efforts to obtain labor for work
on the lsthmian canal, members of
the Canal Commission have found
that there is dearth of labor in all
parts of the world. So great is the
demand for labor In connection with
railroad building and other improve
ments on a large scale that countries
which formerly have sent thousands
OF laborers to this country monthly
are now using their labor at home.
Leroy Park, the agent OF the Com.
mission has been in Spain for some
months recruiting laborers. and has
found many difficulties in obtaining
the Spanish laborers who have shown
themselves so well adapted to coudi-
tons on the Isthmus of Panama.
Many hundreds of the men whom
he has sent to the canal zone ara
writing favorable reports to their
friends in Spain, and in a short time
Mr. Park expects to send large
number of workmen to the canal.
Chairman Shonts OF the Isthmian
canal Commission. accompanied BY
MS wife and daughters, has gone to
New York preparatory to sailing for
Panama.

May your wickiups cluster like the

When the red deer sported on the

When the winged arrows whistled in

And warriors rushed forth to the
slaughter of men.
May your council fires burn for many
glad suns,
Even so long as the tiamboyant Beaver

And many scalps may you lift from
the palefaced braves,
Who for sold have dug up the red

Late reports in the daily press
are to the effect that the Missouri,
Kansas IL Texas railroad will
very probably build the proposed
connection from Granger to Trim
ity, and il go the line will pass di-
reotly through Madison county.
The proposed extension will be
over the old Link Line survey,
the rights of which were acquired
by the Katy, and will enter the
county in the northwestern part,
passing through Madisonvi.le and
Midway.
The county will need this road,
and all are hoping that it will be
built.-Madisonvile Meteor.

sense OF humor and mischief appeal
to all. and surrounded with a large
aud brilliant company including a
chorus. ballet and a group of
iS-carat American Beauties, elab-
orately costumed by Wanamaker,
he should prove most attractive.
Buster will be enacted by clever

lar and forty-four people are en-
gagged IN the performance.

BLEAcHERs AND GROUND.

By the first game here on the
campus the management of the
baseball team say they will have
the bleachers ready for use. Some
of the lumber has been brought on
the ground already and the con-
struction work will commence i'm
mediately. The seating capacity
is calculated at 600 and the con.
tract has been let to Mr.. G.. 5.
Parker Of Bryan. This is to be a
movable bleacher of six parts. So
when the first game is pulled off
here March the 29th with the Uni
versity of Kansas, we may expect
seats if nothing happens. The
work on the diamond has begun
and now the ground is in very iair
condition. With some rolling and
practice it will be in good shape
by the time it is needed.
The students have been very
liberal in their contributions 10 the
team and bleachers. The surplus
trust fund has been subscribed
with Willingness that shows the
proper spirit toward the team.
With this loyalty of the cadets and
the fine work being done we can
safely predict winning nine this
season. The Battalion.

unless we stand by each other,
the entire com nercial fabric must
fall to pieces. Suppose there were
agents in Bryan for outside firms
representing all lines Of business;
groceries, hardware, drugs, furni-
ture, insurance, etc, and every
body sent away for what they
needed, what would be the conse-
quences2 1t requires no argument
to prove to you that Bryan would

There would be nothing to keep it
up. Let us stand by each other
in all things, to the end that our
fair little city may continue to
forge to the front until it shall be
recognized a. the business, re-
ligious and educational center Of
all central Texas.
There is no desire or intention
on the part Of any merchant Of
Bryan to do or say anything
against anyone representing out
of town houses. What we have to
say is plain business proposition
and entirely impersonal.
But we do think if these out of
town houses want to do business
in Bryan, they should come here
With their stocks of goods, pay
their occupation tax, pay school
tax and contribute their part in
every way to keep up the town.
Let them come here and share
alike in all the expenses of all
public enterprises, contribute to
local charities, to good roads and
to everything that maintains and
builds up the town and county.
II they will comply with all there
conditions, and then you find they
carry better stocks and sell goods
for less money than your home
merchants, we are willing to take
the consequences without protest.

necessity has arisen, making it
necessary for us to issue this
address to the good people Of
BRYAN. However it is a condition
and not a theory that confronts Us,
and we cannot, in justice TO our
selves and our business, remain
silent longer. Such inroads have
been made upon the Legitimate
dry goods business of Bryon by
outside concerns, that we are COM
PEELED to bring il TO the attention
Of our fellow citizens in the hope
of impressing upon them the
doctrine of reciprocity and con-
vincing them Of the necessity of
patronizing home industry. To
this end we submit for your ernest
and serious consideration the
following propositions;
We are citizens Of Bryan and
have our homes here.
We have our money invested IN
stocks Of goods with which TO con-
duct legitimate business, and
meet the demands Of the people Of
Bryan and the surrounding terri
tory. We must have the goods
when they call for them, in season
and out, and to do this requires
the investment Of great deal of
money, and it is hardly fair that
we should be expected to do this,
and then have for competitors
firms who do not live here and
who have not one dollar invested
in the town. A town is judged
by the standard of the stocks of
merchandise carried by its mer-
chants, and if we are forced
through unfair competition to let
our stocks run down, the entire
city will suffer in proportion.
Real estate as we'll IA everything
else.
We employ other citizens OF the
town who spend their money here
and help to pay the taxes.
We pay heavy taxes to defray
the running expenses Of the city.
We pay a large school tax to edu-
cate the children of Bryan. We
literally to the support
of all the other schools of the city,
private and denominational.
We have helped, and are still
helping to build the splendid
churches Of Bryen and contribute
Of our means TO the support of all
their auxiliary branches.
We have aided in securing valu-
able enterprises for Bryan, and
are still ready at all times to do
our full duty in securing new
enterprises and industries that will
to the upbuilding of.
Bryan.
We would also respectfully direct
your attention to the fact that 10
per cent Of the city taxes come
from the merchants and property
owners on Main street.
We are mutually dependent
upon each other, and we give our
patronage to the merchants of
Bryan in other lines of business.
In unity there is strength, and
