1t is a truth, none can refute.
that we are all to some extent
dependent upon others. Money
will buy attentions, but it fails
to buy happiness and often it is
from the humblest sources that
we reap our greatest joy. The
millionaire will turn from his
ONE of wealth where he has a
|urfeit of luxury and stop at the
oor of an humble cottage to en-
Toy the smile of a prattling child
that has won his heart by its
pleasant way; and as it walks by
his side as far as safety will per-
'Jnit and he watches it until it
|enters its home. AS he misses
the little hand from his grasp,
he recalls those who have passed
out of the reach of his loving
care, and his soul cries out,
What is home without the
children?'

but does not pay. Where is the
difference, then, between the
person who does not pay for
goods and the thief? The loss is
the same to man whether he is
robbed or sells goods for which
he receives nothing in return.
Do you not suffer the same in
justice, whether ten dollars are
stolen from you OF some sleek
individual borrows that sum and
will not return it? The injustice
is the same in both cases, hence
willful debtors and dishonest
borrowers are thieves and are to
be branded as the worst enemies
of society.

It really is surprising that a
man Of the standing and reputed
ability Of Senator r. P. Gore, of
Oklahoma, should be involved in
such case as that which is now
being prosecuted against him in
the courts of Oklahoma. Senator
Gore is charged with having as
saulted woman in a Washing
ton hotel some months ago and
ishe is suing him for $50, 600 dam
ages. The whole case may be a
eframe-up, as Senator Gore claims
it is; but whether it is or not,
the fact that Senator Gore has
adstes.defend himself against
isu&hTa charge is apt to destroy
Theoretically and it is doubtful
whether he will he reelected to
thA Senate. If the jury returns
verdict for the woman, Senator
Gore ought to be impeached and
the seat he holds in the Senate
declared vacant with as little ado
as possible.

1t is officially estimated that
the promoters of the get-rich-
quick schemes and other fraudu-
lent enterprises using the mails
have robbed the American public
of $129. 600, 900 in two years. 1t
is the declared intention of the
postal authorities to enforce with
increased vigor the present regu-
lations that are designed to ex-
clude the swindler from the
privilege of the mails.

Owe No Man.

Every man in this community
is, of course. honest and pays his
debts promptly, therefore, the
following which has been handed
US by one of the towns citizens
is referred to people of other
climes:
The culpable debtor or dishon-
est borrower is a thief because
he takes and keeps unjustly the
goods of others. The thief takes
secretly the property of others,
and,th bad payer procures goods
under the pretense of laying.

to DR.. Eleanora B. Sanders in
presenting her side of the testi-

than $50, 600 in damages for the

There may be a better country
than the one in which you are
now located, but you are not apt
to find it through the forid
representations of the exploiters
of real estate schemes. 1t takes
hard work, foresight, frugality,
and some other solid virtues to
produce success anywhere in the
worlds No doubt the exercises
of these virtues right where you
are would richly pay.

The fight being made for and
against the Fostner bill has
brought to light a condition in
this State which, was hitherto
unknown by a large per cent. Sof
our people, and one which is
little short of deplorable. AS
conditions are pictured at pres
ent. it apparently will be only a
short time until the Legislature
will be forced to make a law to
prohibit the intermingling of the
races, and we can see nothing for
gain in deferring action to this
end.

An exchange states that you
can read the newspaper proof
three or four times and repeated
ly pass the same error without
seeing it. All newspaper men
tell you so. But as soon as the
press is started and the paper is
printed in it's complete shape,
there stands the error in front
of you, \ so big that you can't
see anything else. It's a strange
fact and probably a reason why
it is so easy to edit a newspaper
after it is printed.

One of The Tines young
friends asks the paper to sug-
gest the establishment in Fort
Mill Of a public gymnasium. This
we gladly DO and add our indorse-
ment to the suggestion. No
institution would be a source
of more genuine pleasure and
healthful exercise for our young
people than a gymnasium proper
ly equipped, and we doubt not
that if approached our citizens
would gladly donatsa a sufficient
sum for the establishment of
such an institutioE.i

Senator Tillman doubtless feels
that he is not beyond his rights
in undertaking to defeat Govern
or Blease for the United States
Senate, but if Senator Smith is
as smart as a man should be to
hold seat in the Senate, he will
lose little time in calling Senator
Tillman aside and requesting him
to let up on the Governor. Till
mans opposition to Blease is not
costing the latter any votes.
The wonder is that Senator Till
man doesn't know it.

Just what is to come of the
investigation of conditions at the
State Hospital for the Insane we
are unable to see after having
read with more or less care the
volupainous testimony printed
from day to day by the daily
press. 1t seems to be case of
the witnesses appearing before
che committee for no other pur-
pose than to stand up and answer
questions, many Of which are
irrelevant and childish in the eX-
treme, for no other purpose than
to give somebody an opportunity
to star" in the press q This
paper has no space to waste, and
does not. therefore undertake
TO reproduce any Of the testi-
r,ony. But III there is one thing
1as impressed us in con-
Rbn with the investigation it
THAT a corps of new officials is
"a pressing need at the hospital.
DR.. Babcock, superintendent,
has outlived his day of useful
ness to the institution, as have a
number of his assistants, and
conditions there are not apt to
show much improvement, inves-
tigation or no investigation, un-
til changes are made in the
management.

Of the Lamy branch and its other

in prosperity for New Mexico.
Strange Decrease.

dreds of new business blocks and res
licences, the improvements on city lots
decreased $10l.6 in value. That
also seems inexplicahle to the boosters
who insist that New Mexico is pros
porous and is growing.
Coal lands show decline In value

WAR IN EUROPE.

War was declared by Austria Hungary
on servia on Tuesday. What this may
mean to Europe and the whole world is
hard to imagine as possibilities are 60
great and go terrible.
The cause Of the declaration is the
outcome Of the assassination of the Arch
duke Ferdinand few weeks ago. Aus.
tria blames Servia for the encourage
ment of public sentiment against Aus.
tria' that eliminated in that tragedy.
II the war can be kept as between
these two parties alone the matter would
not be 80 serious though bad enough.
But it will hardly possible to keep Greece
out of it as that country not only SYM
pathises with Servia but its own inter-
ests would be menaced if Austria should
conquer Servia.
But the relations of Germany with
Austria, and Russia with Servia make it
almost certain that these two powers
will be embroiled and if these then Italy
is likely to join with Germany and Aus
tria, while France and England may ally
with Russia.
Such war woold undoubtedly be the
greatest in all history, especially when
the havoc of modern methods and weap-
ons are taken into consideration.
As it is not probable, Though possible)
that the United States will be mixed in
the hostilties, the immediate effect
would be beneficial as such war would
make q big market for both manufact.
ured goods, such % war material, and
also our foodstuffs. The latter wonld Of

then what becomes of the several col.
