THE REAGAN MONUMENT.

The good women of the chapters of
the Daughters of the Confederacy are
to make energetic efforts to raise the
balance due on the Reagan monument,
which has stood in half finished con-
dition on street of the city for more
than two years. And they should be
given every assistance These good
and patriotic women are going to ask
every loyal, home-loying, town-loving,
patriotic man and woman for one dol
lar each; no more and no less. In this
way they expect to get the balance
that IL Queen due Ga the monument, that It
may stand a finished thing of beauty,
commemorating the memory of the
city's most beloved citizen, and one
Of the south's greatest men.
1t is somewhat of a reflection upon
Palestine people that this monument
stands as it is-unfinished 1t causes
unfavorable comment. There is no
reason why it should longer stand
reflection upon the patriotism of our
people. 1t should be completed, and
that speedily. There are men and wo-
men plenty here who can give one
dollar each, and never feel its loss, to
complete this work SO nobly under
taken by these good women.
When they call upon you give your
dollar, and give cheerfully, not as a
donation, but as an investment 1t is
your town, and it will be your monu-
ment. One you can in after years
point to with pride, telling your chill
dren and your children's children the
history of the wonderful man whose
memory it is to help perpetuate, and
one whose memory we all love to
love and honor.

A BOOST FOR CONE.

The Denton Record and Chronicle
says:
There are thousands of voters in
Texas, we believe, who are for any
thing to beat Colquitt These will
sink their individual preferences and
vote for Johnson, for Poindexter or
for Davidson, according to which they
think has the best chance. The very
great majority of voters in Texas, we
fu,ii ke.- including those sup
porting the other candidates, is in
cluded in the opposition to Colquitt
and anything like a fair division of
this vote among the three with those
several thousand "anybody-to-beat-
Colquitt" votes added will elect one of
the three. The strongest man to do
this with, it looks right now, is John
son, and if Johnson continues to gain
ground as he has within the past few
weeks, indisputably he is the man. It's
as a contributor wrote the other day
in the Dallas News:
81 do not think the Bailey ques-
ton will cut as much ice in the COM
ing election for governor as some cor
respondents of the News would have
us believe. l have personally talked
with more than twenty men who, like
myself, have supported Senator Bal
ley, who are in favor of Cone John
son for governor. Doubtless the
names of thousands could be given
who will vote for Johnson not be-
cause they like Bailey less in his
place, but because Johnson offers the
only practical solution of the liquor
problem, and is the only candidate
for governor who proposes to put in
to effect the will of the majority re-
specting the liquor traffic Submits
sion is not really an issue in the race
for governor at all. l know that much |
is being said and written as though it |
were. But if the submissionists have
two-thirds of both houses of the next |
legislature they will submit the ques- |
ton regardless of the views of the |
governor; and if they have not the |
requisite two-thirds of both houses of |
the legislature the question will not |
be submitted, no matter how much the |
governor may desire it,

1T WILL DO THE WORK.

The Palestine Herald has on exhibit
ton in its office a split log drag
which is waiting for the proper con-
dition of the streets to demonstrate
what it can do. 1t has excited a great
deal of interest among the people of
that section and a great many have
called at the office to inspect the road
making device. Opinions differ, ac-
cording to the Herald, as to the prob
able effectiveness of the drag The
Herald need have no fears. for the
drag has never yet failed to make
good.-Denison Herald.

The Herald commends the action of
the trustees of the Southwestern Uni
versity at Georgetown for refusing to
sell the university location to the
highest bidder. While it is true that
a great school needs money to make
it success, on the other hand such
a deal as the one proposed might do
vastly more harm than good in that
it might create an impression in the
minds of the student body that money,
after all, is the greatest power in the
world. This may be true in the
strictest sense as to purely business
matters, but it should not be true in
the matter of christian education.
There are many things that count
more.

A news dispatch from Texarkana
cinct since 1901, candidate for re-
election, has taken out his announce
ment, saying there was not half a
living in the office since prohibition
went into effect Yet there is, of
course, more whisky drank and more
sold since prohibition passed than be-
fore, for there always is, by the testi-
mony of the ants. and since it's a
penitentiary offense to sell it, it is
hard to see why the constable's office
should not make a man rich under
prohibition. How can these things
be ?"-McKinney Courier-Gazette.

The opinion of President Keist of

terday, should be of value to this

| roads which the country has to its
discredit are as heavy a burden upon
the unfortunate ultimate consumer
as is an excessive tariff
Every pound of produce brought
from the farm to the market bears an
inflated price because of the excessive
cost of its transportation from the
farm to the point of shipment. For in
stance, it costs an average of almost
2 cents more to haul a bushel of
wheat from the farm to the station
nine miles away, than it does to ship
a bushel of wheat from New York to
Liverpool, 300 miles away This ex-
cessive transportation cost must be
made up by the farmer in charging
more for his wheat, by the miller in
charging more for the flour, by the
baker in charging more for bread.
and finally, of course, by the "ulti
mate consumer" in paying more for
his bread
AS the farmer and the miller are
also consumers, the excessive cost of
road transportation really levies a
tax upon all Whatever doubt there
may have been about the need for
systematic road improvement in the
United States, facts and figures such
as these finally dispelled. If there
was ever any work calculated to fill
the proverbial "long felt want" it
was the work of the office of public
roads,. B. Stowe, in Putnam's.

Mexicans Buying Cotton Seed in
This County.

native of Mexico, representing
Mexican corporation. has been in
Raleigh for several days buying cot
ton seed to be used for planting on
large farm in northern Mexico. The
representative had already purchased
5000 bushels. He gave the follow
ing information to a reporter Of the
Raleigh Times:
Senior Trevino stated that his
corporation, which is composed of
Mexican capitalists, had control of
100000 acres of land up in the
northern part of Mexico, just across
from Eagle Pass, Texas, of which 49,
900 or 10000 were irrigated and in
excellent state for cultivation. The
entire estate is suitable for cotton
growing, provided it is properly irri-
gated, and under good conditions will
produce about one and one-half
bales per acre
THE purchase of 5000 bushels OF
cotton seed, to be used in planting
the next crop, is in the nature of an
experiment. Should the North Caro-
lima seed prove profitable, as it is ex-
pected it will, the company will pur-
chase $4,000 or 10000 bushels for
the planting of year after next"
