IL Makes You Grow Fat

Bones" came to Yerington some time ago,
He wore fine suit and big red bow
He bought lots of ground and build plenty oil

He makes them as clean and neat as a mouse.
His health was bad; he feel so queer
He began drinking Bodie steam Beer
The beer does him good; it makes him feel fine.

He don't like the work; it was too hard;
so he start saloon-him and Vic Bernard
so we are selling Bodie steam Beer; it makes
you feel so fine.
The boys all come here to have good time
Come in aud have glass and with you we will
chat;
Drink steam beer, laugh and grow fat.

For to get all my rent have to hurry.
And just when / get ready to make plenty OF

We take pleasure in publishing the fol-
lowing story written by pupil in the 5th
grade of the Yerington schools:
One August afternoon two brothers,
Seth and Abner, were out in the garden
playing, and Fido, their dog, was with
them. The boys were talking about
when they would be men and go to the
far west. They were looking at the
Hampshire Hills, which they longed to
go over Fido could not imagine what
the boys were thinking about. When
ever they went to the garden before they
were always playing around the apple
trees and the bushes. When they were
grown men they told their parents that
they were going out into the world and
see what kind of trade they could find.
Their father and mother tried to per-
suade them not to go, but they would
not listen to them. So they got ready to
go and babe their parents fond fare
we'll and started off. Fido had died long
before they were men, but they never
thought of anything, only what they
would see. They married and were very
wealthy. One day Abner got message
from Seth that he (Seth) was very sick
and to come to see him. Abner went,
and when he reached Seth's house he
was on the bed. Abner threw his arms
around Seth's neck and kissed him.
Abner sat down by his bedside and talked
all about their childhood and that time
was the first time they ever thought of
poor Fido since he died. And then Seth
closed his eyes and never woke again.

Rather Embarrassing

The editor of the Times has been
placed in a very awkward position by the
mailing of bills for subscription to all
the subscribers for the paper. Many
have paid in advance and have receipts
and are provoked about the duns. The
statements were not sent out by the
present management nor from this office.
We shall open new subscription book
and proper credits will be given for all
moneys. All receipts on subscription
given by previous owners or managers
will be recognized.

ST. Peter sits at the heavenly gates, his
hands on the strings of the Tyre, and
sings low song as he patiently waits for
the souls of those who expire. He hears
in the distance a chorus of song swell
from the foot of the heavenly throne,
and he smiles as the music is waited
along, and he MARBLES lay of his own:
There is room in this region for mil
lions of souls, who by sorrow and woe
were bereft; tits for those who have suf-
fered the melody rolls, but the kickers
must turn to the left There is room for
the people who, when they were young,
persisted in sowing wild oats, yet doomed
up their town with sinew and tongue,
but the kickers must go with the goats.
There is room for the people who point
ed with pride to the beauty and growth
of their town, who kept singing its
praises aloud till they died, but the
kickers will please amble down. They'd
say the music was all out of tune, and
the angelic robe 'hand-me- down, and
they'd send for a jeweler up in the
moon to sample the gold in their crown.
So while there is room for million of
souls who by sorrow and woe are bereft
we want no complaint of the music that
rolls, so the kickers must turn to the
left Cube.

We are in receipt of the following let
ter, which explains itself:
Granite, Nevada.
Editor Times: 1t has been noised
about that the country around Granite
and Mountain View is nothing but big
milling company proposition. True; it
is an excellent company proposition.
We could site score or more groups of
claims here that would pay company
to take hold of and develop. But this is
not saying that high grade cannot
be gotten in the district Every leaser
so far who has sunk so feet or more on
their ore bodies has encountered good
shipping values, and some at much
less depth. There is as much as two
carloads of ore on the dumps of the Big
20 alone that would have been shipped
had not Col Young made arrangement
to mill same at Iona in the near future
Granite can produce immense quantities
of milling ore, Granite can produces
thousands of tons of shipping ore ant
Granite has every ear mark of a higl
grade camp.

Nevada has many things to con-
tend with, but nothing that does
quite as much harm as unscrupu-
lous promoters of the George
Graham Rice type. Rice has
brains and ability but lacks hon.
esty and honor. He flourishes
like a Russian thistle in an alfalfa
field. Several thousand people
have bought worthless stocks of
him and each one will be life

Providence does not soon remove
him from our midst some steps
should be taken to lure him to
pastures new.

FROM Mr.. CANNON

To the Democrats of Hender-
son county, l ask your support
in my candidacy for State senate
in your precinct primary next
Saturday afternoon. An indorse-
ment by the democrats of Hen
derson county means the nomina-
ton and election, as it is "our
town is at the wheel'' this year,
Polk and Cleaveland having had
the representatives two years
ago.
If elected to this important
position it shall be my pleasure
to serve the people faithfully and
to the best of my ability, having
no position in the discharge of
any duty incumbered on me
l shall stand by the local meas
ure already secured for the bene-
fit of democracy of the county,
especially the law creating the
office Of tax collector which has
proven so satisfactory to the
people generally. In other mat
tiers, | shall be governed by the
wishes of a majority membership
of the great party of which |
have the honor to be a member.
I am in favor of letting well
enough alone and oppose the
creation of any more officers
which carry additional saleries.
Hoping for a favorable result
on Saturday afternoon and also
for a sweeping victory in the
county, state and nation at the
November election,
/ am yours very truly.

its'repeal when the matter was
last brought to the General ASS
emily. He has always stood with
for democracy and democratic
measures and | am glad to be
able to say that l do not believe
him capable of betraying any
trust reposed inhim either pub
lie or private. The fact that he
was appointed to a six-year's
term as a member of the State
Board of Agriculture, by former
Governor Aycock and re-appoint-
ed by Governor Glenn shows
what manner of man he is and
indicates his standing with the
democratic party. Isn't this
enough said?
It is my purpose to avoid taking
a hand in a contest between
friends, inasmuch as | have been
honored with a position on the
Democratic ticket, but I have no
hesitancy in saying that if Mr..
Cannon should be nominated and
elected to the Senate no district
in North Carolina could boast of
a more creditable representative.
Thanking you for the ''con-
gratulations'' and with best
wishes, l am,

a very small interest charge up
on bonds at six per cent. All
property in the city will be en-
HANGED in value, and but a few
years hence it will be a matter
of wonder that there was ever
opposition to the enterprise. In

some twenty years ago there
was great opposition to an ex-
pensive and elevated bridge over
the small stream that crosses
Main street. The mayor, T. c..
Cover, was denounced for extra
vagance. Now it is called Cow

bond issue would be overwhel
mingly carried next Saturday.

Editor Daily Hustler:

Editor Daily Hustler:
| propose to offer you a few
thoughts from the standpoint of
a visitor upon the now vexed
question of voting S18, 900 of
bonds for the purpose of laying
cement sidewalks along the
principals streets of your beauti-
full and growing city.
I suppose there is no difference
of opinion with all classes of your
citizens with regard to the inn
portance of and necessity for,
the best sidewalks and roadways
to be obtained by a city aspiring
to be, and which is as Hender-
sonville, a leading summer resort
for a large and important section
of our country.
; 1t goes without saying, that to
your delightful climate, glorious
mountain scenery, and pure wa
ter, you should add all the at
fractions you can of good walks
and driveways, and green trees
and grass and flowers, all tea-
lures so much appreciated by
visitors. Where else do you find
so lovely a plateau lifted to the
sky and in the heart OF the
mountains, as this upon which
Hendersonville is built?
But to the question of the
bonds: Eighteen thousand dol
lars seems a small sum for so i'm
bortant an object. This to be
paid; the first So, 600, in ten years
and the balance in $1,000 annua
instalments.

values, this Wi Ii. mvolv'

!, We are in dead earnest about
this street improvement PROPOSE
ton. Conditions demand an en-
dorsement of the scheme by the
voting element. The work al
ready done must be paid for and
all taxpayers in the town will
have to share said expense if the
bond matter is not ratified. No
doubt about that.
