The Herald feels disposed today to
shake hands with all of the people
and congratulate the town on the re
sult of yesterdays election It would
even Jnclude thosQ who opposed the
measure involved and in shaking
their hands admonish them to come on
into the progressive column and join
the onward movement to make Pales-
tine not only the queen city commer-
cially of Eastern Texas but the city
beautiful as well And now since it
is a settled fact that the city is to
have two pretty parks the various
clubs and organizations should unite
with the city administration in mak-
ing them in fact parks of pleasure
And on the other hand the city ad-
ministration should bend every effort
to making thecity attractive to the
eye and under foot And this gets us
back to the matter of streets The
Herald with many others will insist
just as earnestly as for the parks in
the past campaign that the streets be
Improved They can be improved and
there will be no reasonable excuse to
offer if the improvements are not
forthcoming
Let everybody get together and
make the honest effort to make this
all that a town should be

l WILLIAMS CULVER
In a Singing and Talking Comedy Act
dent Silliman of the Palestine Board
of Trade expressed the opinion that
the most important single means of
making Palestine independent for all
time to come was to bring in good
farmers to open up and make produc-
tive the lands now lying Idle It is
his opinion that these farmers will
not come uninvited and in order to
induce them to come he suggests the
organization of a land company to
offer the inducements His plan is to
secure options on neglected farms and
on unimporved lands not with the ob
ject of making a profit but simply in
order to be able to offer attractive
bargains to desirable purchasers When
a sufficient amount of land is thus
secured an agent is to be sent to the
thickly settled parts of the country
where land is high and conditions are
not so favorable to the farmer as they
are in Texas Mr Silliman thinks
there would be little difficulty in se-
curing takers for all the bargains thus
offered This is a plan that the
Bryan Commercial Club might find it
worth while to investigate Bryan
Eagle
Palestine is to have two pretty
parks and a modern fire department
with the latest equipment Brethren
we are coming along
Mr Business Man try using a lit
tle Weekly Herald advertising space
through the fall and winter especial-
ly and see if you cannot help in
building up the trade of the town
Just keep the progressive ball roll-
ing Join the Board of Trade and get
in line to help settle Anderson county
with progressive people With a big
prosperous country population we
would be independent of outside in-
fluences to a very large and gratify-
ing extent
The Herald Is not so allfired much
interested in what Roosevelt thinks
of the conservation problem of the
northwest as it is in what the people
of Palestine and Anderson county
think of the conservation problem
here at home Hundreds of acres of
land where irrigation is not necessary
are idle in this county because the peo-
ple are not here to cultivate them It
r
opinions of Teady and those other fel-
lows are not going to get these people
for us

ANOTHER RIG AUDIENEC
The management says
The Curtiss Comedy company
greeted by another packed house last
night at the Airdome This evidently
testifies to the popularity of the or
ganization The play last night The

edy that Sent everybody away talking
and that it was enjoyed by every one

distinguished peisonage in the or
chestra circle about tells the story

Tonight the company will present
Hal Reids successful play Away
Out West This is a story of the
Texas cowboy a story of the west its
varied industries and cosmopolitan
citizenship its wholesome regard for
honor and the venturesome spirit of
Its people It is a story free from
ovedrawn exaggeration it is said and
is replete with all of the intensity so
predominant in all of Ml Reids
stories There is a story of love in-
terwoven between the mistress of a
big ranch and her foreman = the prai-
rie etiquette of his not hardly being
suitable to the affectionate teteatete
peimitted in several instances by the
lady this also affording a wide ex-
panse for a good margin of comedy
Plans to frustrate the villiany plotted
by a gang of cattle tnieves gives a
tinge of romantic melodrama that is
in every way exciting as well as Inter-
esting to say the least This play
has been successfully compared with
The Virginian and The toundUp
and is said to be as good as either
A cast of twenty odd supernumera-
ries besides the regular company ot
twentyfive will be in the play to-
night and an entire car load ofspec
lal scenery will add the atmosphere
of the prairie and range upon which
the settings are supposed to be made
