A Realm Rvonri Rnnk-Brniniy ''r m x
W m Houston. Tex. April Tl.Ur. W. B. - tffl.
By Former United States Senator WILLIAM E. MASON
"Neither leva nor friendship hath need of a bookkeeper."
John the Unafraid.
IKE Damon and Pythias were the two friends Judge Bland and Randall Edwards.
One man said of them "they are more than kin." One day Judge Bland asked his
friend to do a thing for him which wat as his friend explained absolutely impossi-
ble. Whereupon the judge in anger said: "I have been your friend all these vears ."
and then recounted the many acts of kindness with which he had served his friend.
The other replied: "Yes judge you have not named one-half of the favors you have renderet
me. You have forgotten many which I cannot forget. I have had great pleasure in doing som
very small things for you and was so happy in it that I supposed you had been pleased to
serve me. In the realm of friendship I had not thought of bookkeeping" The judge turneo
away but soon returned with outstretched hand saying: "Forgive me dear old friend you have
done me many favors but none greater than today when you discharged the bookkeeper who
has ivept my account of service rendered in friendship."
Have you ever heard a man boast of what he has done and the money spent for wife
or child? He is keeping books and growing blind and stoop-shouldered at his work. Have you
seen the man's eye sparkle who spends the last of his week's wages to give his boy a new
pair of shoes? Have you watched him come home at night thinking only of what happiness he
may bring to others? Have you seen him make sacrifice to help a friend in distress?'
That man is no bookkeeper. He has no open or running account. He collects in every
transaction a joy that could not be set down in all the musty day books cash books and led-
gers in this world.
This then is the thought expressed: "Neither love nor friendship hath need of a bookkeeper."

TO STOP COTTON SPECULATION.
Cotton brokers are much excited
over the bill in Congress to make it
illegal to deal In cotton futures. Many
prominent men have appeared before
the House Committee on Agriculture
in opposition to the1 "bill without mak-
ing much impression upon the lay
mind. -We are told that there never
was-a real cotton corner that the men
who have engineered movements call-
ed by that name are great benefactors
and that o stop dealing in futures
wptild be a heavy blow to the indus-
try affecting the planter the mid-
dleman and the broker in an injur-
ious -way. Nothing is said about the
"fate of the ultimate consumer.
Dealing in cotton futures is a com-
plicated game and unlike any other
form of "speculation. This country
produces three-fourths of the sup-
ply ot the world and dominate.- the
market. The uniutored man who
reads the reports of cotton transac-
tions on the exchanges in' -certain to
become confused. It is claimed by
brokers that .by dealing in futures a
constant market is made for the plant
ers and small farmers vho can thus
get just what is due to'lhe workers of
the lawof supply and demand. At
small farmers who can thus get
just -what is due to the workings of
the law of supply and demand. At
a time when all cotton was rushed
to market as soon as ginned this was
measurably true but in these days
TSouthern producers are holding
their ctton more than formerly and
. a good deal of last year s 'enormous
yield is still held by the growers.

Pecos Texas. April 22. The Pecos
Commercial Club 1ms filed with gov-
ernor Colquitt a letter received from
W. P Story Jr. Vice-Pres. of 'the
Santa Fe Railroad: in which Mr.
Storey states that' the Santa Fe is not
in a position y. consider the construc-
tion of the 1 " from Pecos to Fort
Stockton for the reason that the pres-
ent income of the company is not of
sufficient volume to pay the. interest
on the value of the road. The letter
also states that this condition' is caus-
ed 'by the low rates and conditions
which have been required by the Tex-
as Railroad Commission.
The object of the Commercial Clu'Js
is tiling the letter with .the Governo.
was to ascertain whether or not the
contention of the -Santa Fe is cortv.-t
and if so? what change In the present
laws may be expectedso that railroad
construction in Texas -may be revised.
Powder is Only Bie in Size -

A large can and a small cost does nnr

sive than Calumet the high-quality moderate-
price kind. It certainly cannot make it as good.
Don't judge baking powder in this way the real
test the proof of raising power of evenness uni-

found only in the baking.

transacted gave the
Mayes Printing Company
Publishers of the DAILY BULLETIN
A rising vote of thanks for the excellent man-
ner in which certain printing had been issued
by the firm for that society. They at the same
time took occasion to say that the price for
which the work was done was very reasonable.
THE PROPRIETORS of the Bulletin appreciate the com-
pliment. We at all times strive to put our best efforts into
every bit of printing that leaves this office and in every in-
stance we stress the point that if the work is not satisfactory in every
way we will make it so. While we always try to make at least a small
profit we do not let a dollar stand in the way should we make a mis-
take. We count the patrons of our job department by the hundreds
and the list is growing rapidly. We use the latest type obtainable
we use good paper fine ink have a splendid equipment of presses
and our employees are men who have been with us for years. If you
want cheaper work you can doubtless find it but if you want GOOD
work you will look a Kong time before you find better than that our
job department turns out.
