Many persons Of excellent judgment
viii tell you that the apple i'll its PER
lection is the finest fruit that nature
provides for man. 1t is not Il matter
Of surprise. therefore. that an en-
thusiaStic apple lover is devOting his
time To the formation of apple clubs
He holds that apples and optimism are
almost SYNONYMOUS terms and makes
many astonishing claims regarding the
beneficial effects of the fruit. OF all
the peculiar beliefs that are designed
To engage the attention of mankind
none is less harmful than this of the
apple club. The busy American fails
to appreciate the pleasure as we'll as
benefits that liking for fruit will
bring him. We are not the fruit-lov-
ing people that our forefathers We're
and if the promoter of the new cult
can renew this ancient liking his eff
forts are deserving of earnest encour-

Yesterday morning at the services of

tor, Rev. H. B. HaZen, presented the

said Congressman Longworth in an al

Some men. but for this fear Of

something. As It is. they remind me
of the dying man who was too cautious

or the impulse which is to start
the revolution are the recent Russian

Russians has demonstrated to all mil

settled. The chief trouble seems To
have been in the misunderstanding Oh
the attitude of the managers of the
local telephone system. The settle-
ment. as explained at the meeting OF
the Board of Trade last night, seems
to be very fair, and the rate made the
rural phones is the cheapest Of any
similar service in the state. In the
future If you talk over a rural phone
you will have to go to a pay station,
and II will cost you only five cents.

The ruling of the attorney generals
department that contracts made pre-
vious to the going into effect Of the
anti-pass law are still in force and
can be carried out, has started a new
agitation. Many of the railroads that
are affected by the ruling of the at
torney general have called on the rail-
road commission TO pass on the same
question, feeling that an expression
from both the attorney general and
the commission would give them very
certain grounds for proceeding. The
Herald believes the commission will
find as the attorney general has
found. that contracts cannot be re-
voked after the requirements have
been fulfilled. The Herald further be-
lieves that the legislature had no
right or has no right to interfere with
the right of contract as affected by
that part Of the anti-pass law.
Palestine daily herald. [volume] (Palestine, Tex.) 1902-1949, 1907-09-13

The Herald was among the first
papers in the country to advocate the
selling of the Philippines to Japan.
That country needs the islands. and
America finds them an expensive bur
den. This country can pick up a nice
piece of money and at the same time
get rid of a big burden by such a
deal. Sell the Philippines and apply
the proceeds to the canal proposition
and let's all be happy.
