a mar who has stood in the forefront
Of as many political battles as any

an accommodating and safe county
treasurer.

dition and has been managed with
the ~strictest economy and at a trifling

The prospect for high prices, good
crops and general business activity
seems to be in the air. Commercial
and manufacturing centers are full OF
hope that 1910 will be a banner year.
The agricultural interests are assured
Of . growing demand for breadstnfs
and meats with prices rolling along
the highwater mark. Everything
points to continued prosperity and
our people should be In shape to take
advantage Of the good times that
come through energy and industry.
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1910-01-07

If the administration Is going to
throw the harpoon into republican
congressman for daring to demand
Justice for the people at. the expense
Of the robber combines that are
manipulating tariffs and prices, Pres
ident Taft's administration will be a
failure and the people will turn to
Roosevelt in 1912.

Home Thoughts From
Europe
N VAN DYKE

HENRY VAN DYKE =
Oh. it's home again, and home again. America for me! n
My heart Is turning home again to Gods countr1e. y
To the land Of youth and freedom, beyond the ocean bars, c.
Where the air is full of sunshine and the flag is full OF stars. e.
It is good to see the Old World, and travel up and down N
Among the famous countries and the cities of renown, y
To admire the crumbly castles, and the monuments and kings; =
But soon or late you have enough of antiquated things. VI
So it's home again, and home again, etc. N
Oh, London is a mans town, there's power in the air.: Z
And Paris is a womans town, with flowers in her hair; y
And it's sweet to loaf in Venice, and it's great to study Rome: Y
But when it comes to living, there is no place like home. *
So it's home again, and home again, etc. Y
like the gardens of Versailles with flashing fountains filed: q
But, oh, to take your hand, my dear, and ramble for aday 4
In the friendly Western woodland where Nature has her way! Y
So it's home again, and home again, etc. ~
Oh, Europe is a fine place, yet something seems to lack, Il
The past is too much with her, and the people looking back; n
But life is in the present, and the future must be free; y
We love our land for what she is, and what she is to be. q
So it's home again, and home again, America for me! Il
My heart is turning home again to Gods countre, n
To the blessed land of Room Enough, beyond the ocean bars, y
} Where the air is full of sunshine and the flag is full Of stars. q

The first step in the 1910 progress
sive campaign is to see that your seed
corr is fit, corn that will give you one
or two ears from every hill planted.
One good ear from every hill on an
acre ofground will give you so bushels
to the acre. You all know what that
means.
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1910-01-07

Corn, cattle, hogs-are you in shape
to get your full share OF this business
during the coming year? Plan and
prepare for a big demand at high
prices, The man who neglects to DO
his share In the game Of progressive
competition Is liable to have q smaller
bank account one year hence than he
ought to have.

Palestine daily herald. [volume] (Palestine, Tex.) 1902-1949, 1910-08-11

Whatever delinquencies are shown
in the census report on the population
of this city will. be due largely to tho
Indifference of our own people. This
may be blunt statement, but it iE
nevertheless a truthful one 1t is A
matter of fact that the majority OF
the people have not hustled for d
greater Palestine as they should. OuF
greatest Indifference has been in the
neglect to make the effort to fill this
county with a good, prosperous farnd-
ing population. The people are conf
ing to Texas by the thousands, and
Anderson county has thousands OF
idle acres that invite the best class
of people. But we have been slow to
offer these lands and advertise their
merits. The one great need of the
time is a colonization scheme through
which new people can be settled
here. And with farming population
of the right kind and of the right
numbers Palestine would be city OF
twice her present population. The
Board of Trade will be reorganized
pretty soon, and instead of ten or fif-
teen men being active in its meetings
there should be three or four hum
bred. In fact, every man identified
with the business of the town should
be a constant worker for the promo
ton of the towns business. The Her
aid urges an awakening along this
line. Build up the country and the
town will take care of itself
