GETTING HELP.

The Herald believes the CONNER
cial bodies of East Texas should gel
together for campaign to boom
this section, and after showing de
termination to do things for ourselves
to call on the railroads traversing
East Texas to come in and help push
things by bringing home-seekers in on
cheap rates and helping to boost the
country This is the best section of
Texas, but it needs advertising. West
Texas has valuable assistance from
the railroads and advertising done
has paid large returns. Let's get

The Herald is not quite able to fig
ure out the situation. Under the
Roosevelt administration-a genuine
prosperity promoter according to the
bills-factories all over the country
shut down or reduced forces; rail
road shops were put on short force
and short hours, and orders for new
material and equipment were held up,
Then, when Taft was declared to- be
elected to succeed Roosevelt, and to
continue his policies and plans, all
things walked up and everybody goi
busy. Factories went to work on full
time, and heavy buying orders poured
in from all directions. What's the
answer? Were the money interests
afraid of Roosevelt or was it the old
political trick of turning the scarf
against Bryan? 1t is up to Presidf
J Roosevelt y--firsr ;..a1e answer.

An exchange, in discussing the slow
development of factory enterprises in
Texas, probably hit one of the reasons
square in the face when it declared
that loan money was at too high rate
of interest. There is no doubt that
with cheaper money more people
would borrow and engage in bust
ness.

PALESTINE, TEXAS. NOVEMBER 9, 1908.

Bryan, in all probability, will never
be president of the United States, but
that he has done his country great
service in showing how to conduct a

most active opponents will deny.
Bryan will live in history as man
who sought to elevate the political

The state railroad is booming ahead
in the direction of Palestine. The
graders are now within eleven miles
of this city, and some two hundred
men with a hundred teams are work
ing every day. The road has been
finished across the Neches river and
through the big bottom, and bad
weather will probably catch the con-
struction crew out in the hills where
it cannot delay the work to any great
extent. Some very heavy grading will
be necessary in this county. This
road is going TO open a rich new
country and will give Palestine a
greatly extended trade territory.

WHY HE FAILED AS A LEADER

His mind was not trained to GRASP
great subjects, to generalize, to make
combinations
He was not self-reliant, did not de
pend upon his own judgment; leaned
upon others, and was always seeking
other peoples opinion and advice.
He lacked courage, energy, bold
ness.
He was not resourceful or inventive
He could not multiply himself in
others.
He did not carry the air of a con
queror.
He did not radidate the power of a
leader
There was no power back of his eye
to make men obey him.
He could not handle men.
He antagonized people.
He tried TO substitute gall" for
