A FITTING TRIBUTE
TO A GOOD MAN

The Herald takes a real and per-
sonal pleasure in reproducing the fol.
lowing tribute to one Of our railroad
men from the Texas Railway Journal
All the Journal says viii be vouched
for by home people, who know the
man. The Journal says:
Chas. Reitch. the subject of this
sketch. was born November 5. 1857. at
Bellville, Texas. In 1873, when only
16 years of age. he accepted a position
with the |. & G. n. R. r. at Palestine
as coach painter; worked in that de-
department until 1876. when he began
firing a locomotive on the road. In
1873 he was promoted to engineer,
which he held until 1881, when he re-
signed to accept service with the Tex
as & Pacific Railway as locomotive
engineer, where he ran an engine I'M
til May, 1888, when he returned to the
l. & G. n at Palestine, where he
served as freight and passenger engi-
neer until April, 1887; then he was
made travelling engineer, which he
held until November. 1887, at which
time he took a passenger engine on
the Gulf division, where he ran con-
tinuously until August, 1907, when he
was again made travelling engineer for
the entire l. & G. n. system. Brother
Reitch has done much for his fellow
workmen. whether they belonged to
his organization or not, and his ad-
vice and good judgment have kept
many a man out of trouble. He has
been a member of the Brotherhood Of |
Locomotive Engineers since the first |
division was organized on the I. G. G. |
n, and has been chief engineer and |
chairman Of the Board of Adjustment
most of time for the past twenty
years.
In 1896 Brother Reitch was elected
a trustee for the public schools of Pal.
estine: that board elected him as their
which position he has filled
within honor and distinction ever
since.
Brother Reitch owns a beautiful
lone in Palestine, where he resides
With his estimable wife and beautiful
who always look forward to
he happy event of his Homecoming,
Is his duties often keep him from
lone for several days at time.

some time figuring on establishing a

their machinery here, and will soon

One of the most disagreeable fea.
lures of the present financial situa.
ton is that it gives a seemingly good
excuse to the dead-beat to stand off
his creditors. Many a fellow who
never saw the inside of a bank book
refuses to pay his debts because he
cannot draw freely on the bank. The
business people have the measure OF
this class, and this bluff will not last
long.

When an individual renders his
opinion that the split log drag will not
work and says it is a failure, he is
placing his inexperienced judgment
against the United States government
and expert road builders all over the
country who have experimental for
years with the drag on all kinds Of
roads and found that Il is one Of the
greatest road builders ever tried. But
the drag must be used at the oppor-
tune time, and It must be used re-
peatedly One dragging will no more
make good road than one brick will
build a good house, or one feather
make good bed. The Herald knows
the drag is a good thing because the
testimony in it's favor is universal
among practical road builders who
have given II a trial If failure is
made with the drag it is not the fault
of the drag. II will be well TO remem-
Der this.

ful, conscientious and pious men
whose voice was ever lifted in prayer,
regrets TO report to the Leader that
Boyd has absolutely and mysteriously
disappeared from Athena. Mr.. Beathe
was over in the suburbs the other day,
and learned that the town was mysti-
fed but not very much concerned over
the loss of its editor. In fact, the
Press is appearing as usual, and is
highly improved in moral tone. Athena
doesn 7 seem to care very much wheth-
er Boyd comes back or not, except
negatively. 1t would rather he staid
away, and the general feeling at pre-
sent is one of relief, as though the
community had gotten rid Of "a trouble
