State. on the eve Of the Democratic State

purpose Of talking over the situation.
The Bryan people. ii was learned to-day
from those who have discussed this
Bryan-Hearst situation with both Mr.
Bryan and AIr Hearst. feel that Mr..
Hearst has been altogether too conserva-
tive in his recent public speeches and
utterances Mr Hearst and his friends
have not as Yet given public expression 10
their views on Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Bryan's
public utterances. but it was intirnated
very strongly to-day by those IN the con-
fdence Of Nj Hearst that Mr. Bryan's
recent political propositions viii not have
the support Of Mr.. Hearst and his party.
Recall Bryan's Detection.
Another matter was brought up. the old
story Of Mr. Hearsts enthusiastic sup
port of AIr- Bryan in 1886 and 1900 and of
Mr. Bryan's refusal TO aid Mr.. Hearst
in his candidacy for the Presidential nomi-
nation in the national convention Of 1901
The Hearst people say that their chief
tain in that convention was a candidate
for the nomination; that Mr.. Bryan was
not a candidate. and that ne should have
repaid the loyalty Of Mr.. Hearst in 1896
and 1870 by doing all in his power to bring
about Mr.. Hearsts nomination. Mr.. Bryan
refused aid and support TO Mr.. Hearst in
that conYention and got upon the platform
and seconded the nomination Of ex-Sena-
for Cockrell, OF Missouri. who had no
more chance for the nomination than a
feather boa has IN a blast furnace"
It was stated most emphaticaIly to-day
by those in Mr.. Hearst's confidence that
while he would not raise a hand TO defeat
Mr.. Bryan's nomination az Denver, he
would use every means at his command
to defeat Bryan's election.

The Randall County news. (Canyon City, Tex.) 1908-1926, 1908-10-30

The people of this city have
few opportunities of hearing
such men as Homer T. Wilson,
the eminent Divine from San
Antonio, who spoke at the Opera
House in this city last Monday
night under the auspices of the
Christian church of this city.
Rev. Wilson used as his subject,
Sparks from the Anvil and
those who failed to attend the
lecture certainly missed a treat,
both in eloquence and logic while
the humorous sayings of the
speaker created much mirth
from time to time. His address
was mainly to the younger peo-
pie but the older people gathered
therefrom much that will be of
benefit to them in their handling
of their children if they will but
heed the teachings of this man.

We see that G.. Il. Burrow has
returned from his trip to Dallas
and southern Texas points. TO
the News reporter he stated that
he was certainly glad to get back
and that the Plains was the place
for him, as that middle and
southern portion of the state
would not compare with this in
in any sense. He reports that
he had a fine trip and that the
Dallas fair was great. He went
to Houston while he was gone in
order, as he says, to cuss out
the big guy
Mr.. and Mrs. Earl Cullum,
who were married in Abilene
last Sunday a week ago, have
returned to this city to make

company, and though the young
folks did not give these people
the customary chivarari, they
welcome them just the same and
wish them much JOY.

God is inyourhome. Ofcourse
you know this but do you really
realize the fact in all its
comprehensive signi fl canoe?
We're you not taught in the
days of your childhood that
God was up in the skies, and
have you ever in all these years
succeeded in freeing yourself
from this teaching to the extent
that you realize the omnipres-
ence of God? The answer is no
and no and no. 1t is doubtful
whether one person in a million
fully realizes that every day, every
hour and minute of his life he is
in the presence of almighty God.
What beautiful and vet what a
terrifying thought. How many
Infamous crimes and how many
petty offenses against His holy
law would be avoided could the
perpetrators realize that grand
and powerful presence. Could
all humanity be given this reali
cation todaywhata world we would
have tomorrow. Clovis Post.

Sucker State Illustrated.

For some reason or other the
state of Illinois has been from
time to time called the Sucker
State The reason for this the
News man does not know. j.
e. Ravens was in this city this
week, and he halls from a town
in that state and the town is
named Green Valley. Now this
News man doesn't say that the
name of the town and the desig-
nation of the state had anything
70 do with the matter, but while
in this city Mr.. Haven assisted
in the pulling off of a badger
fight. 1t was a genuine article
so far as one of these fights go
and the bystanders seem to have
enjoyed the matter very much.
Anyhow Mr.. Ravens said he
didn't bet on either animal and
he acted as the official starter
and he did the work nicely and
according to Hoyle.

BIG RANCHES SELLING OUT.
One by One the Large Cattle Ranges Of the
Country Give Way to the Man
With the PIow.

Time was, in this country,
when the man who managed the
bell cord over the backs of a
team hitched to a pillow was con-
sidered to be one of the second
degree of nature and not wise in
his way, but this is now thing
of the past and everyone is COM
PEELED to doff his hat to the
farmer, for we know that he is
the wise man.
In those former days the large
rancher held the sway and the
hester was a small thing.
These large ranches are now be-
coming a thing of the past and
within a few short years the man
with section of land in this
county will be a large land
holder.
This week the reporter was
lust bruising around" when he
found out that another one of the
larger pastures of this section
was among the has beens. y
Every body who has been in this
county for any length of time
knows Jim Rogers. This week
he has sold the last part Of his
Ceta ranch and before long it
will be one large settlement of
farms. This ranch has, within
the past two years, passed into
the hands of fifteen men, eight
of whom have already settled
upon the land and four more of
them are making arrangements
to move to this country. The
land has brought from $1,000 to
$1,000 per acre, and every man
seems to have been well pleased
with his purchase.
This is the very thing that is
needed in this country, and when
the price has gotten so high that
the Spectator cannot afford to
buy, then the lands will begin to
be bought by the farmer who
expects to come here to live.
The lands will raise as much as
any that this News man knows
and the revenue to be derived is
of course far greater according
to the cost of the land than any
of the northern or eastern states
where the lands are high priced.

Herman Schramm Buried Here,

The body of Herman Schramm

man to its last resting place, sor-

COMES BACK AGAIN.
Gentleman Formerly Interested in Randall County
Again Seeks Location Here.

Several years ago James r.
Barker, then living at Green
Valley, Illinois, but who now
lives at Raymore, Mo, came to
this country and invested in
some of the lands in this county.
Time came when he was offered
good profit and he took it.
Since that time he has been look
ing at other locations and other
counties and this week has re-
turned to this county from the
southern portion of this state
where he went with a view of
buying lands.
Mr.. Barker stated to the News
reporter that he had not yet
found, and indeed did not expect
to find, country that would
beat our county when all things
are taken into consideration. He
said that he had looked at other
sections of the whole country
but eventually he would turn to
Randall County as being the best
yet.
DO you know" said Mr..
Barker, that this country is de-
veloping more rapidly than any
section that have visited? Take
this town for instance. When /
first came down to this country,
during rainy weather, it was al
most impossible to get along the
streets especially on the side
walks. In those days if you got
out of the beaten pathway on the
walks you were certain to get
muddy, but now you have fine,
wide concrete sidewalks. You
now have elegant brick business
houses instead of the frame
shacks of those days.
THE country, too, has improv-
ed most wonderfully, there be-
ing now many farms where
there were, in those days, the
ranch and the cattle. Large
houses and barns are going up
and fine cattle and horses are to
be seen everywhere. You peo-
pie don't realize that you are
coming to the front as rapidly as
you really are.
Il have come back to see if |
cannot get some of this land to
keep. | made a mistake when |
sold out before but my predic-
ton made at that time has come
true when | said that this
country would soon see the time
when it's lands would be worth
$1,000 per acre"
