The Gonzales Inquirer says
women like bog-killing time be*
cause so many of them are look-
ing for that spare rib.
There is a steady and increas-
ing demand for printers. In the
want columns of the big dailies
ads can be continually found
calling for them, and in many of
the exchanges visiting our office
are small ads stating that a
printer can secure steady em-
ployment in that office. In ad-
dition the Herald has received
three letters in the past two
weeks from newspaper publishers
who are short of help This-is
an infallible index of a State’s
prosperity. When the news-
papers and job offices are de-
luged with work and additional
help ie needed other businesses
are on easy street. Wages are
better too; ten years ago a job
printer's usual salary was from
$10 to $15 per week. Now it*
ranges from $12.50 to $20.00.
A straight type setter ten years
ago was drawing from $6 to
$10 per week; now his pay en-
velope contains from $9 to $15.
The wages have advanced to a
stage commensurate with the
work required- The profession
is cleaner today also than it was
ten years ago/ Then it appear-
ed that roadsters and booze-
fighters predominated. Now the
boys entering printing offices are
manly and cleanly and sober
and industrious. A thorough
knowledge of the printing office
is valuable no matter what other
pursuit in life a man may at-
tempt after completing bis
course at the cases, for it is an
education in itself. Public offices
and offices of trust are filled to-
day with men who were formerly
printers.
No man in the state, or out of
it, has the resourcefulness, the
faculty of making a hand at all
functions, the ability to shine in
any company, equal to Col. Wil-
liam G. Sterrett, or plain Bill
Sterett, if you will. At a farm-
er’s gathering he dons a slouch
hat and mingles with the crowd
talking learnedly * of raising
chickens, pigs, etc. J At bankers
meeting he dresses up and puts
on an air of wealth, moves
among the crowd with ease and
talks as glibly as the most fluent
about finance, discounts and
legal tender. At a political func-
tiod he crawls into his silk stock-
ings. draws on his high top silk
hat and looks as wise and talks
as learnedly as the shrewdest
about statecraft and the science
of government. And the beauty
of all this is that he is himself at
all these functions and easily the
leader of any of them. He does
not “put on’' or act a part. He
simply measures up to the crowd
whatever it may be. Such a
man as he. and there is none
other, would make Texas the
best governor she ever knew.—
Leonard Graphic.
The day of political “bossism”
is gradually being eliminated in
this country. The truth of this
assertion was verified at the
elections in the Eastern States
last week. This country needs
men who will not sell their bal-
lots to “party bosses.” nor bar-
ter their honest convictions for
the flesh pots of official favor-
itism if the freedom and liberties
of our people are to be perpetua-
ted.—Brenham Banner.1

“Xmas.”,—Nordheim View.
X-euse this x-preSsion but you
are x-actly right. Even the
x-hileratiug x-citement of an
x-I)derated x-istence and X traor-
dinary x-penses should not justi-
fy the use of Xmas.
Why should one failure in
many years discourage the farm-
ers of East Texas. We have had j
fewer failures in the last 20 years j
than any country on earth and
to grumble and mouth because4
we have not reaped the usual rich
harvest is positively ungrateful j
to Him from whom all blessings 1
flow.—Carthage Watchman.
We clip this item simply to
show that other sections suffer
as well as South Texas. East
Texas is experiencing what
we
have undergone for several years
past while we are reveling in the
prosperity that East Texas has
enjoyed heretofore. The Lord in
his infinite wisdom distributes
the trials and troubles, poverty
and prosperity with an equable
baud, yC

commission merchants as a spec-

The United Daughters of the
Confederacy are erecting a $40-

The Gonzales Globe states
definitely that County Judge
W. W. Glass will be a candidate
for Congress against George F.
Burgess. His formal announce-
ment will be made later.
Have yon observed,” said the
merchant to the customer, “the
handsome advertisement I have
just painted on the fence?”
No,” replied the customer, “but
if you will send the fence to my
house I will try to read the an-
nouncement, and maybe my
family will look at it. We read
the papers, but don’t have time
to run about 'reading signs.'’
And the merchant scratched his
head.—Liberty Vindicator.
The Lavaca county National
Bank’s report, published in the
lastissueof the Herald show
deposits to the amount of £213-
253.37. This is the high water
mark in the bank’s business and
is an excellent index of the era of
prosperity Lavaca county is en-
joying at present.
The West Texas Press As-
sociation will be in San Antonio
Saturday November 25th to en-
joy a day at the Fair. South
and West Texas editors who can
spare the time should visit San
Antonio that day and mingle
with their West Texas brethren.
It is claimed that it takes
$10,000 to get a State office un-
less a man is already in. Prob-
ably that is why Bill Sterrett is
shying at the gubernatorial
chair. Bill is long on brains but,
if be is like the rest of the fra-
ternity, is short on money.
The Picayune has this week
turned down a $40 proposition
from an advertising* agency^ in
New York which many country
weeklies would have gladly ac-
cepted. The price offered was
less than we will take any of
them for and they will learn it
after awhile. These concerns
are bound to place their ad\er- ure Qr ftgUres jeft on orc]er shall
tisiDK, and if all weeklies woul.J h. ,he %am„ amr>nnt nr ,h-
hold up for a better price they
could, at least, publish a better,
cleaner looking paper now, and
later get the advertising at a
price that would pay.—Beeville
Picayune.
True as Gospel! The Herald
has received a similar proposi-
tion, probably from the same
firm that the Picayune mentions,
and refused it because the price
was lower than our regular rates
The Herald has had an estab-
lished rate card iu effect since
1901 and has found it invalua-
ble. One price is charged every-
body. We are carrying some of
the representative foreign ads of
this country in our columns and
they all pay our rates- If an ad-
vertiser will not pay the rates
established, and they are m ac-
cordance with a guaranteed cir-
culation, then he remains out-
side the fold. It is as legitimate
and indispensable as the prices
fixed by merchants to allow a
fair profit on their wares.
Miss Clara M. Dristoll has
been appointed custodian of the
Alamo for one- year by the
Daughters of the Republic, an
honor tendered in recognition of
her great work in restoring the
Alamo in its entirety to the
state.
Tom Perkins of the McKinney
Gazette possesses the philosoph-
er's stone. lie says “I»on’t.bor-
row trouble. Better borrow a
five or ten from your friend Of
course this advice doesn't apply
to vour friend.”
State Treasurer Robbins has
promoted his son to be chief
clerk iu the place of Roberdeau,
resigned. Evidently Robbins be-
lieves in keeping the good things
in the family and isn’t afraid of
the nepotism plank in the plat-
form.—Runge News,
Governor Lanbam is keeping
company with Robbins in violat-
ing the nepotism plank, having
appointed his son pri vate secre-
tary to succeed Judge X. A. Cra-
vens who was elevated to a high-
er position. Realizing t hat when
their present terms are; complet-
ed they will never be honored
with public office again, they are
evidently trying to corral as
much of the coin as possible.
Their democracy is besmirched
by the open violation of one of
the most important planks of
the State democratic platform,
. Messrs. Robert Koos-and W.
L. Johnson were among the bus-
iness men today collecting money
which will be used to advertise
Yoakum and the country adja-
cent to it. This is a good move
and these two gentlemen are to
be commended for this work. All
that Yoakum needs is to get its
advantages before those who are
looking for progressive place to
reside, and the farming lands to
be brought before those who are
looking for fine land off of which
to in ake a good li v ing with corn -
paratively little work, : <)ther
places are advertising, so should
Yoakum. The money put in
good advertising is well spent.—

—The postoffice department j
has made another change in the
style ot money orders, to take ef-
fect November 15th. The new
order is somewhat on the style
which was discarded some time
ago. The distinctive feature of
the new form is that it is pro-
vided with marginal check. It
is to be retained by the issujng
postmaster, and so detached
from the order proper with met-
al cutter, that the marginal fig-
be the same amount or the
amount next higher than that
named in the body of the order,.
It has also been deemed advisa-
ble to provide for insertion of
the names of remitters in the or-
ders, this making the advices ex-
act reproductions of the orders.
The address of the payee must
also be written in the new order,
which was not done in the old
form. The necessity for chang-
ing the forms of money orders
was evidenced by the apparent
ease with which the old stvle
>• •/
were raised and made to call for
more than the amount for which
the order was originally issued,
and it is hoped and believed the
new form will, to a large extent,
eliminate the fraud feature.

—That’s what a prominent

Emulsion a short time
As a rule we don’t
use or refer to testimonials
iii acl hessing the public,
! :;t ; h e above remark and
• i m i 1 a r expressions are
i.iip:e so often- in connec-
l ioh wiih Scott’s Emulsion
iii at they are worthy of
occasi onal note. F rom
in fancy to old age Scott’s
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying im-
,proper and weak develop-
ment, restoring. lost flesh
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The act ion of
Scott’s Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul-
sion itself. What it does
j i l does through nourish-
ment—the kind of nourish-
ment that cannot be ob-
tained in ordinary food.
No system is too wTeak or
