Judge Longstreet had MANY

Upon the bench he was a great
executive officer, his mind firmly

were not only well understood by
the lawyers at the bar but by the
laymen as well. His mind was a

LEGITIMATE METHODS vs..
PROMOTERS.

The great trouble with the BUSH
ness Of this and every country is
the fact that all legitimate meth
DDS become assaulted by the pro-
moter and shyster in every line.
Progress has been hindered be-
cause good sound business men
and their methods have been up
set by the ever ready sharper and
interloper that feeds on what
others make. lie has nothing Of
his own, he must feed from the
tolls Of those who do not UNDER
stand the wiles Of this class.
The scrupulous merchant must
watch the unscrupulous-the I'M
scrupulous buys and never pays,
therefore he can undersell so long
- he lasts, the man who is hon.
est and pays as he goes. The
lawyer, doctor, farmer, newspa-
per man and every line of BUSH
ness must look sharp for the ever
ready promoter" the fellow that
promotes his business at the
general public's expense. One
Of the greatest troubles, too, with
this sort Of bloodsucker is, that
when he once establishes his
Zine" in any community, he
usually involves so many mem
bers Of it that you can hardly blot
him out, every fellow keeps
thinking that, in time, he may be
able to get even with him.
The trying need OF the time i:
the proper way to get rid of the
promoter and shyster. May
that day soon come.
