One schooner arrived.
One arrival was noted yesterday.
This was the American schooner A.

from West Africa, and which brought
an import cargo of mahogany logs
here to the order of the Mengels, of
Louisville. This schooner win prob
ably be docked at an unloading berth
today, and the cargo will be dis
charged just as rapidly as possible.
The schooner win probably take cargo
at this point, although it is under

A Steamer @Onfsiden .

The tug Sea King, which was in

was large steamship standing off
shore last evening, but the fog was
too thick for the visitor to come in
side, and it was understood the
steamer remained at anchor during
the night. There are two steamers
expected, the Spanish steamer vi
Wina and the Dutch steamer Hebe,
but the description furnished by the
Sea King would correctly apply to
none of these vessels.

Mr.. Tangen to put all the crops
he raises into live stock or cream
but the question can l make
more. Now!
Just as though Mr.. Tangen
didn't have any progressive or
modern ideas about these af-
fairs.
/ think Mr.. Tangen has had
many years of experience with
these affairs so l think Mr.. Tan
gen knows what he can make
the most out Of.
If Mr.. Tangen could Of made
more by putting all the crops he
raises into livestock or cream he
would of done so long ago and
without any insiIuations.
Now if everybody in Lincoln
county and other counties in all
the states were to put all the
crops they now raise into moth
ing but livestock or cream which
would soon overstock the mar
ket and then what would the
price of livestock and cream be.
Now you will say put in a
winter dairy. Cream is a good
price in the winter that is true
but if everybody could put in a
winter dairy how long would
the price of cream be up think
not very long.
Web seems to think everybody
in Lincoln County can live on
beef or butter and the few
creameries can employ all of the
laboring men.
It is with pleasure that l AZ.
obliged to Web for MS progress
sive and modern IDEAS and il
situations.
Web even states that the in
stallation of a county agent is a
reckless extravaganza thought
of only by individuals in the par
asite and anarchist class Ouch!
Shoced! These things are not
true. If Web or an agent can
make more than Mr.. Tangen
could make if we had more in
dustries | would gladly give the
place to them free of rent for a
year or two.
Web insinuates that Mr.. Ton
gel overlooked the fact that
these car loads of stock were
shipped only by private buyers.
Now It gives me a pleasure to
say to Web ! happened to know
some of these stock were ship
ped by private farmers cooper
ating.
also had the pleasure of see
ing some of these stock sell to
private BUYERS for as high $50
head which would make some
different then Web average of
$25 a head.
Now the farmers of Lincoln
county can form more of these
cooperation or selling organi-
zation when we get a national
association of farmers.
Come all you writers and
other farmers let us turn over a
new leaf in 1917 and boost hard
the sooner we get it the better.
Yours respectfully,
c. Tangen.

Toledo and Lincoln County
Greetings:
Your humble servent and
brother wishes to let you know
that he appreciates your patron
age of the past year. / want to
wish to one and all a Happy
New Year and hope that you
will join me in being happy for
the incoming year and remem-
Der that will do business at the
old stand, the auto livery.
am starting the New Year
with lots of love for all. ! have
learned the way to be happy is
to make others happy. Our be-
loved Lincoln said, ITO be happy
is to be busy" want my broth
ers and sisters of Toledo to be
on the alert this year for we
have lots to do. Let us have no
trouble this year, but rejoice in
everything we do. Let us throw
open the windows of our souls
that our spiritual life may gov
ern our brain. Let us see good
in everything and everybody. If
we live this year without an evil
thought how happy we will be at
the close of the year.
| want the grand old Civic
Club to know that we appreciate
their efforts to build up the city,
and may God bless the members
of that club.
Let us purge our lives of all
selfishness and live upright and
unselfish liyes that all may see
our good work, and when we are
about to sneak evil Of our town
or people, please slip away where
no one can hear us. for it is q
shame to speak evil of a place
and still live in it. When you do
you are condemning yourself
and self-condemnation is sore
affliction.
Now, a few words about oul
county officials. | have beer
made to blush on the streets Of
Toledo by open remarks about
their dishonesty and extrava.
gance. | want to say / think
we have a noble. honest, accom-.
modating set of officers, and
love all Of them.
And now. as the Old Yeal
closes her doors and we take
hold of the knob to open the
New. let us leave all of our ole
sores and "get evens" there il
the old year and fill our lungs
with pure air and our lives will
new. useful thoughts, and try tC
make Toledo a better place tC
live in. and NAV God bless all thu
homes of Toledo.

THE A OLD MAN.

During all the history Of Texas there
has always een some one ~nulyIuaa,

dom. Tor his broad and liberal views,
for his honesty and integrity. for his
answering loyalty TO the principles CT
right and truth, VINO is known and Ges.
ignated by the people as the "Grala
Old MAN. Texas is not without such a
citizen today and we feel sure That
when these lines are read. but one
name will suggest itself / the MIND o.
the reader. that OF Colonel Robert 4.
Miner OF henderson. We have no
greater man than he. none more hon.
orable. nom more faithful. none more
able TO solve the problems OF state
and prescribe the remedy. an honest
remedy, for existing evils.

Miner. His experience is too great,
his wisdom too broad for II to be de-
MED the people OF the state.
The Eagle does not know whether
or not Colonel Miner would accept
any office within the gift OF the peo.
pie. We have had no conference with
him. but we do know that Texas needs
him.
While he would grace any position
within the gift OF the people. ,ae Eagle
would be GLAD to see him elected as
Congressman at large. lie would add
