PALESTINE, TEXAS, FEBRUARY II, 1907
LET US WELCOME THEM.

Mr.. w. H. Dick, a man with a head
full of good sensible ideas. has sug.
gested the advisability of the people
of Palestine making some outward
show of welcome to the newcomers
to Anderson county. He suggests that
the people of Palestine, through the
Board of Trade, at an early date Sc.
cure the city hall and spread ban
quet for these newcomers, invite
them to it, and let them meet the cit
liens of Palestine, and meet one an
other.
A capital idea.
Within the past year or two numer-
GUS families have moved into Ander-
son county, many of them coming
from places remote. They are strang-
ers to the country. and to our people.
Let them be brought together, and
let them meet the people of Palestine
and Anderson county.
An address Of welcome could be ar.
ranged for, and program as well,
suited TO the occasion.
Palestine and Anderson county
want these people, and after they are
here they should be made to feel at
home; that they have an interest here
in common with all the people.
Let the Board of Trade take up this
idea, and act upon it. It would have
a far-reaching effect, altogether help
full, to have these strangers made to
feel at home; to have them send the
tidings back to where they formerly
lived, that this is a hospitable and So.
ciable people, and that they had been
given such a welcome

later years. but continued to spend
long periods elsewhere, either with
her maternal grandmother in Boston
or with numerous relatives in New

debut at a grand ball given in the
White House early in January, 1902
She was one of the party accompany
ing the secretary of war to the Phil
ippines, as was also Congressman
Nicholas Longworth of Ohio. Soon
after their return from the Philip
pines the marriage engagement of
Miss Roosevelt and Mr.. Longworth
was announced The wedding. the

GO AFTER THEM.

We note county officers are being
highly praised for their zeal and &C
tivity in ferreting out the law break
ers in the matter of poll taxes. We
take it 1t is their sworn duty to bring
wrong-doers to justice, and now If
they will go for some of the gambling
rooms they will receive further mer-
tied praise and the gratitude of the
families whose lawful supporters
rush to these dens every night to
squander their money instead of
spending It for the comfort of their
homes. We have not spoken of this
matter before in a long time, but
since there is such a tremendous
awakening of virtuous indignation
against crimes, suppose we turn
little of our wrath towards where it
will most benefit the women and chill
dren of our community.-Yesterd
Daily Visitor
The Herald heartily agrees with
the Visitor. If it has knowledge of
such law-breakers it should give the
officers the benefit of such knowledge,
as did the committee of citizens who
did their duty in reporting the unlaw-
full payment of poll taxes Let every
citizen do all that is in his power to
aid the officers in ferreting out crime,
and it is dollars to doughnuts that the
officers will do their duty. AS to the
matter of the recent investigation, and
the result of that investigation. every
officer that contributed to ferreting
out the plot is to be congratulated,
and the law-abiding people will aid in
holding up his hands.
The Herald thinks the vigorous
manner in which County Attorney c.
NJ. Kay took hold of the matter and
pushed it should receive naught but
praise from the better class of Pales.
tines citizenship.
Yes. indeed, If there are any law
breakers. let them be brought to
judgment

GOOD ROADS.

that they would remain in first class
shape for all time, for it looked like
with the firm and well rounded road
bed that this particular road would
never get impossible again. After the
first long wet spell we have travelled
over this same road and found Il cut
up with deep ruts, the water soaking
through the road bed and the road
impossible. II this road had been
dragged after the rains this operation
would have filled up the ruts and kept
the bitches opened and the road would
not only have remained good but
would have actually got better. The
roads leading out from this town were
put up in good shape only a few
months ago. We had occasion to drive
over the air line road leading south
from town only a few days ago. This
road was we'll graded a few months
ago and II It had few applications of

splendid shape for years to come. It
is now badly cut up with travel and
if it is not looked after soon will be
