New Comet Is Visible.

A new comet with plainly visible
head, but little or no tail, can now
be detected in the constellation
Cephus in the northwestern sky. This
hazy object has been discovered tray
cling southwark from it's first nc .ic-
ed position increasing in brilliancy.
Opera glasses aid much in viewing
the strange object. 1t is not known
whether this is one of the catalOgued
phenomenon Or some strange, wild
roaming comet that is making it's
first tour to this terrestrial domain.
The astronomers made the discOy-
cry a few nights ago while looking
for Brooks comet, but witnessed that
the new object had a disposition to
travel, showing that it was rot a
nebula, and hence not the comet that
is due in this part of the country
now.

put there soon We will be deprived of

cross on the old one now. Most of the

a plantation road through Mr.. Par
hams farm, people being afraid to cross
over that bridga.

No, no; we have not said nor even
yet intimated that the honorable
board of aldermen or any part of it
Is "a den of scratch cats" Without
any reference whatever to the board
or any member of the same. We we're
only attempting to make a general
illustration of the precaution an old
dog of long training would exercise
IN chase. We entertain a better
opinion of the board than Mr.. Peace
has yet expressed in these columns.
While some of the aldermen may be
entirely too slow for progressive,
Wlde-awake city like Henderson. and
may not be at all suited to the posi-
ton they occupy, still they are all
honorable, affable gentlemen, and
there would be no occasion or iustifi-
cation whatever for likeninp them
unto scratch cats" There are no
more pleasant and agreeable gentle
men in Henderson than the eight
who compose the board OF aldermen.

Don't Blame the Almighty, Clean Up
(Cata ba News


Proclaiming that God is all love,
We blame Him with many things
that if true would Indicate that He
is anything but love. For instance,
We allow unsanitary conditions at
our homes and the typhoid fly gets
in his deadly work. Then the preach
er says something about the mystic
rious workings of the Almighty and
the papers publish resolutions of
respect" in which it is said, "Where-
as, God in His wisdom has seen fit to
yOnd the workings of His natural
laws God had nothing to do with the
tragedy. 1t is ourselves who are to
blame, and it is up to US to do what
We can to prevent disease.

Who Shall liz Be?

1t remains for a Vance county man
to tell the biggest tobacco worm
story. He said that while cutting
tobacco he put 4 stalks on one stick
and weighed them, tippingIthe beam
at 80 pounds. He then shook the
worms off of each plant, and reweigh-
ed.them all together, and only weigh
ed Z pounds. Next!-Oxford Banner.

Taking it for granted that we are
burdened with a heavy bump OF
"profOund conceit," as Mr.. Peace
strongly intimates in his article this
week, even then there would be no
special reason why we should feel
lonely in Henderson just at this par
ticnIar time.

In the course of his two and half
columns of hot stuff" this week our
friend, Mr.. Peace, says he does not
know of what breed of dog the editor
of the Gold Leaf is. Very evidently,
however, he has been taking us to be
the little fee that runs along with
the big dogs and barks with all his
might whether he smells anything or
not. But to our credit, we think, he
admits in the wind up of that partic-
ular paragraph that he had errone
Ously arrived at such Il conclusion.

In the interest of a correct under
standing We have to repeat just here
what we have recently said more
than one time, that it will ever be the
policy of the Gold Leaf to allow a
wide range of discussion by respon-
sible citizens of all questions and
matters of interest and Importance
to the community. To do less than
this would justly brand the paper as
! marrow. But at the same time it
must be understood that the Gold
Leaf will not be held responsible in
any sense for the views and state
ments of those who wish to discuss
such matters in it's columns The
paper, as the mouthpiece of the COM
munity, is only the medium of such
discussion, and the writer's them
selves are alone to be held response
BILE to the public for their views and
statements. The Gold Leaf is under
no obligation whatever even to en-
dorse or disapprove OF same. and to
do so might subject it to the charge
OF "profOund cOnceit."

voted to him. And then Mr.. White
is a Sunday school superintendent,
as is also Mr.. Peace, and both are
said to be among the very best. A
little more OF the "Balm of Gilead, "
Mr.. Peace. Even one OF our leading
ministers must have felt constrained
last week to "pour oil upon the trou-
bled waters" as he came in "A strong
article endorsing the action of the
board on one very important mat
ter, and told US that the ladies re-
gard it as the best thing the board
has done in quarter of a century.

Reciprocity suffered an overwhelm-
ing defeat in the Canadian election
held last Thursday. When Presi-
dent Taft, who was then at kalama-
zoo, heard the report he said, Il am
greatly disappointed" And we'll he
might say it, for reciprocity between
the United States and Canada is one
OF his pet schemes and is very near
his heart. The extraordinary session
of Congress- that was i'll session near
ly the whole summer was called by
the President solely to consider and
adopt the reciprocity measure, and
now the whole thing falls fiat in
Canada.

The continued rapid growth of the
Gold Leafs subscription list is taken
as an indication of it's growing pop
ularity with the good people of the
community. Within the past week
fully a dozen good men, of their own
accord, have walked into the office
and planked down the subscription
price, at the same time Offering words
of praise and cOmmendatiOn for the
paper that have almost made us
vain. These are in addition to a
number OF other new subscribers that
were secured by personal solicitation.
We are endeavoring to give the good
people of Henderson and Vance cOun-
ty clean, clear cut, reliable county
paper that is well worth every cent
OF the subscription price, and it is ex-
tremely gratifying to us to know
that our efforts are being appreciat-
ed. The Gold Leaf will probably
have some important announcements
to make right soon that Willindicate
greater things for the immediate fut-
ure.
