Believe In Your Town.

II you live in q town you
should believe in it. If you don't
believe your own town or city is
. little better in most respects
than any Of its neighbors, you
should move out. Like other
places, 1t has advantages that
others have not. and your mod
esty should not prevent you from
making that fact known when
ever the opportunity presents it.
self. At home or abroad, wheth-
er pursuing pleasure or engaged
in business. do not neglect to give
those you come in sontact with
to understand that you live in a
town populated by interesting,
wideawake, goahead people and
one that is advancing instead of
retrograding. If you can truth
fully speak in commentator of
the ability Of your professional
men. the square dealing methods
of your business men, the excel
lence Of your mechanics the SUI
periority Of churches, schools and
public institutions and industry,
energy and sobriety Of your cit
liens. let nothing prevent you
from exercising that privilege.
You should learn to believe, if
you do not already, that we have
all these and in addition the best
located town. the finest country
surrounding it, with the most in
telligent class Of people to be
found. If there are any draw
backs it will not be necessary to
mention them. The people and
newspapers of competing towns
will relieve you or that task by
attending to that part of it them
selves. Strangers seeking loca-
tions are always greatly infuen-
ced in favor of any town whose
citizens are enthusiastic in their
praise of it. No city or town
expects to attain prominence over
its rivals unless its inhabitants
appreciate excellence and virtues
ofeach other and will collectively
spread abroad their faith in the
present prosperity and future
greatness Of their locality. Talk
10 q cheap commodity but when
rightly utilized it can be be made
effective in many directions and
this is one Of them.

CONDEMNATION
SUIT BEGINS

Overriding several motions for
a continuance, Judge Chapman
ordered a jury drawn today, and
the condemnation suit of the
Commercial Waterway district
No. ! against James Ashton, ct
al, brought to trial in the superior
court.
Attorneys for the property liti-
giants objected to going to trial,
believing insufficient evidence of
good faith had been shown by
Gen. Ashton that his share OF
construction would be completed
in the proposed waterway. They
maintained that the property
owners might suffer unnecessary
expense in case he failed to con-
struct his share.
The jury will be asked to de-
termine the amount of damages
accruing to each property holder
as a result OF the new waterway.
The value of improvements Will
also be determined.
