THE GOOD THAT ONE CAN DO.

A few days ago lady phoned the
Herald and timidly asked if we would
make mention of reception to be
given by one of the noblest organiza-
tons in the country, and added that
she had been told that we were dis.
gusted with the said organization and
its work, but hoped we would be kind
enough to make mention of the recep-
ton. We promptly assured the lady
that her information was incorrect,
that nothing was further from the
truth, and that we knew of no reason
why any one should say such a thing.
But after we hung up the phone and
thought it over, we did see the reason,
and it is this: There are in this glad,
sunshiny, bright and beautiful world
some people who had rather stick you
with a thorn than to present you with
a rose, and their whole attitude to-
ward the world and their fellow-men
that part that will not bow the knee
to their bidding-is one of perverse-
ness and general cussedness. And we
suppose it was one of these microbes
that was working on our reputation.

narrowness drawn to hair line an6
then split. Webster, who is consider
ed pretty good authority on interpre
tations, says business is profession
trade, occupation or employment, and
that seems to take in about every one
that has any sort of usefulness in
this world. A merchant is business
man as well as merchant
just as farmer is business man
as well as farmer. We all
have our special titles but collectively
we are all business men, or would be
if we amounted to that much. This
same narrow argument is heard when
you go out on a scout for town pro-
moters. Unless the man approached
| is ready to take hold and help do the
public work he falls back on the old
saw that the business men-the mer-
chants-should do this work, because
it helps their business. This is mere
rot The merchant is just one ele-
ment of the business class, and he is
under no more obligations to carry
the load than any other man who gets
his living out of the industries of the
town or county. The man on a sal
airy, if he appreciates his job, is as
much interested in seeing conditions
prosperous as the man who owns the
business, and should be as much in
terested in public affairs looking to
the building up of the town. The
trouble with Palestine today is that
ninety-nine one hundredths of the
people are waiting for the other one
fraction to do all the pulling for the
town. 1t is a condition that cannot
he helpful to the town. We need to
break away from the idea that the
few merchants on the business streets
are responsible for the prosperity of
the town and to realize that we all
owe duty to the place we make our
home. The merchants have their pri-
vate affairs to protect as well as the
rest of us, and often must neglect per-
sonal affairs to give the necessary
time to public matters. This town
needs more boosters and then it needs
everybody in town boosting the boost
ers.

THE GOOD TIMES PARTY.

Commercial failures in the United

September 80 were 1896 in number
and s179,677, 1923 in amount of default
ed Indebtedness, according to statis-
ties compiled by R. G. Dun & Co. In
the corresponding months of 1907
there were 5000 failures, and the
amount involved was $116,036, 34S.
Manufacturing failures were 1852 in
number and $79,140,431 in amount,
, against 1854 similar suspensions last
year, with liabilities of $62,7S3,957.
There were $3.50 trading defaults for
s72,S10,227, against 5,S7S failures in
this class last year for 1885,, 1927.

Here we have the great reason for
the national movement toward democ-
racy. The democratic party is the
party of prosperity. The republican
party has had its chance. 1t has fail
ed. 1t gave us the panic, and the slow
recovery therefrom has shown the
people that republicanism and ruin
are synonymous
The reason therefor is not far to
seek. This is moral universe. Sin
and suffering, evil and error abound,
but the moral law governs human
events like the law of gravitation con-
trolls physical things. The republican
party has been the party of selfish
ness, and the selfish can always look
for trouble which is surely coming. 1t
is coming because selfishness is
wrong. Selfishness is short-sighted
and stupid. Selfishness and safety do
not dwell together.
The republican party not only gave
US the panic. 1t has given us the pres
ent reign of high prices. The cost of
living goes up and up, and the in
come of the average citizen does not
increase
The republican party has given US
an army of unemployed in the East,
and in that section where it has got
in most of its fine work multi-million-
aires abound. The people want
party of equal rights, with no special
privileges-a party protesting and
practicing the me-honored democrat
ic creed.
The tariff and the trusts have been
can regime. The trusts are giant mo-
nopolies that drive their competitors,
ont of business and squeeze the con-
sumers TO the limit The tariff with
an enormous custom house duty keeps
foreign goods out, and not only hurts
our foreign trade, but gives the trusts
a monopoly of the home market, so
that the amount of duty can be added
to the proper price of the article.
American goods today are sold in
Europe cheaper than they are sold at
home to Americans.
The democratic party is the good
times party. And we need good
times. Hence the Bryan boom.-Hous-
