YE EDITORS MUSINGS.

Then Yule remember me.
 Christmas levels all ranks. Celebration is the thief of time. A fair exchange is no certainty. One good gift deserves another. Presents speak louder than words.
 Gifts show which may the wind blows.
 A friend in need is friend at Christmas.
 Presents make the heart grow fonder.
 The proof of the Christmas is the eating.
 A gift in the hand is work two in the tree
 It is more expensive to give than to receive.
 A man is known by the Christ mas he keeps.
 One touch of Christmas makes the whole world kin.
 A present is without honor save in your own family.
 A little Christmas now and then is relished by the wisest men. Take care of the holly and the mistletoe will take care of itself.

to be Responsible.
(By Associated PreSS.)

y Los Angeles, Oct 1.-The building
occupied by the Los Angeles Times
was destroyed this morning, and there
was heavy loss of life, estimated as
high as twenty persons. The fire was
preceded by an explosion and imme-
diately the building was enveloped
in flames. The explosion occurred on
the second floor of an annex to the
old building.
Within a minute or two after the
explosion the entire annex was fiery
furnace. Persons on the street say
they saw several persons fall back
from the windows into the flames,
others leaped from the windows and
all of them were more Or less injured
when they struck the ground.
Within two minutes after the ex-
plosion the police arrested two men
who were running through Broadway
tunnel, near the building. The Times
employs non-union printers and has
more or less friction with labor. Sew
eral threats have been received lately
to the effect that the publishers were
going to meet with misfortune.
Managing editor, Harry E. Andrews,
issued the following statement this
morning: "The Times building was
destroyed by dynamite this morning
by enemies of industrial freedom; I;
the Times itself cannot be destroyed ;
it will be re-issued from it's auxiliary
plant and will fight its battles to the
last"

Farmers save $1.00 Per Bale on Gin

Pound for Cotton.

That it pays to bring their cotton
to Hattiesburg for ginning and market
ing is being evidenced by the large
amount which is being received daily

Factory here.
Farmers from about Brooklyn state
that by bringing cotton to Hattiesburg
they save $1.5O per bale on the ginning
and wrapping, besides receiving $500
per ton more for their seed, which
will amount to about $1.5O per bale
and a quarter of cent more pound
for their cotton.
Taken all together, farmers make
about six dollars per bale by bringing
their cotton, to Hattiesburg for gin
ming and marketing, and if any o.
