Two more reasons are our syrups

The Bagging and Tie Trust.
Henderson, Tex., May, 22, 1900.
To The Times: Henderson,
Texas.—Sir: The trust prices as
given out on bagging and ties for
the coming cotton season, approxi-
mates about 40 per cent higher
than that of last year.
It is customary for merchants to
contract in May and Tune for the
probable amount of bagging and
ties they will use during the sea-
son. This gives the trust an ex-
cellent basis upon which to figure
and base their calculation as to
the output.
If the merchants would, with
any degree of unanimity, refuse to
place their contracts early, it
would put manufactures in the
attitude of being very anxious to
sell, and would cause them to more
readily make concessions in prices
than if the usual custom is follow-
ed by contracting in advance of
their wants for their supplies.
If the general publication of
conditions could be bad, we don't
doubt but there would be an ex-
tensive holding back on the part
of the merchants/ of the South in
placing their contracts for bagging
and ties, and the probabilities are
that reduced prices would be had
on these staple articles, to the con-
sumer. Yours truly,
E B. Alford.

EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION.
The colored people of Henderson
and vicinity are making stienous
efforts to make their emancipation
celebration here on the 19th of June
excel anything of the kind ever
given in Texas. The probabilities
are that there will be here on that
day the largest number of negroes
ever gathered together in tnis coun-
ty. We take this means to inform
our friends both white and colored
that we feel grateful for the very
liberal spirit already shown in our
behalf in the way of donations,
and however large the crowds may
be, we feel safe in the assertion
that all will be most sumptuously
accommodated. Respectfully,

Card of Thanks.
I desire through the columns
of your paper to express the
thanks of myself and family for
the many tokens of love and sym
pathy that have been extended
to us by the good people of Hen-
derson during the sickness and
misfortunes that have recently
fallen to our lot. The tender
delicate sympathy that has been
extended to us, and the substan-
tial manner of its expression
have greatly mitigated the bitter-
ness of our sorrow, and our
hearts have been greatly
strengthened to bear the hard-
ships that have come upon us.
May heaven's blessings rest
upon you, dear friends; may the
all-wise Father deal very gently
and tenderly with you and yours;
and in the day of your sorrow
and trouble, if it should come,
may it be our privilege to . show
our appreciation of your generos-
ity, by some return of the kind-
ness you have shown to us.

Rev. C. R. Lamar addressed two
large and representative audiences
last Sunday morning and night on
the subject of The Twentieth Cen-
tury Educational movement of the
Methodist and other churches. No
collection was taken as his object
is to create sentiment and to rely
upon this sentiment to produce the
funds necessary for the work.
Those who heard him will appre-
ciate the following words from Dr
Jno Harmon in the Methodist Ad-
vocate: "Lamar's eloquence is
the eloquence of thought. It is
not yoice, it is not gesture, it is not
the mellifluous flow of brilliant
verbiage. He piled great truths
about us as mountains are about
Ukiah. But such was his skill
as a rhetorical engineer that he
led his audience unwearied up
these heights by easy grades I
felt somewhat like I had come out
of a chess tourney, or spent an
evening with my old college sweet-
heart, the "differential calculus."
A trifle brain-fogged and wearied
in my thinking bump!"
a Correction.
The Times was in error last
week in reference to the change in
the Sundav service of the Hender-
son & Overton railroad. The
change was not made in response
to a request of Mr. Fowler, but
Mr. Price himself suggested the
change and conferred with Mr,
Fowler as to the plan.
The prospect tor a corn crop in
this county never promised less tt
this season of the year. A few
acres to the farm planted in sor-
ghum will supplement the corn
crop and aid the country to pull
through. Experienced sorghum
growers are agreed that it is the
best feed that is produced with the
exception only of alfalfa. The
land should be thoroughly prepar-
ed and planted in either drills or
broadcasted. If drilled, from a
peck to one-hali bushel of seed to
the acre is sufficient. It should be
cut when the seed is in the dough.
Special to the Ladies.
Mrs. Price is selling her beauti-
ful stock of hats at great reduc-
tions. They are just as pretty as
they cau be made, and it will pay
the ladies to get them.

this county are discouraging at
present.

Kusk County Cotton Mill.
The stockholders of the Rusk
County Cotton Mill Association
met at the court house last Tues-
day and adopted the by-laws
prepared _by a "Committee ap-
pointed for that purpose.
H. C. Cooke, an architect and
mill builder, being present, was
called upon to explain to those
present the workings of and cost
of machinery to operate a mill of
the capacity the people of this
community are contemplating
building. Mr. Cooke had a list
of machinery made out especially
for our mill and also had the
drawings, specifications, etc., of
several mills that he has con-
tracted to build in Texas, and
gave some very valuable infor-
mation in regard to this great in-
dustry.
Letters are coming in daily
from the manufacturers of cotton
mill machinery and from these
we learn that it will taue in the
neighborhood of $100,000 in cold
cash to procure a location, erect
a suitable building and equip the
same for making cloth, and it
behooves«each and every stock-
holder to go to work and solicit
more subscriptions to the capital
stock, and the most important
matter in the whole business is
for each and every subscriber to
come forward and pay up his
monthly installments as they be-
come due.
The by-laws now bsing in full
force and effect the board of di-
rectors now have full charge of
everything pertaining to the bus-
iness of the association and they
ask the hearty co-operation of
the stockholders in assisting
them to carry on to completion
this great enterprise now in its
infancy.
For the benefit of all concerned
we will state that it will be im-
possible to get ready and com-
mence spinning the crop the
present year on account of being
unable to obtain machinery, burn
brick, get the lumber, etc., but
this should not deter us from
going to work in the interest of
the mill, for it will take money
from the start, and scads of it,
for these machinery men are
very independent people and
want their money as soon as they
ship the goods.
It may not be known to a great
many, but such is a fact, that
until the contract is let for the
machinery nothing can be done
in the' way of contracting for the
brick, lumber and other material
as it is absolutely necessary for
the architect to know just what
machinery is to be placed in the
building so that he will be able to
draw his plans for the building
to fit the machinery. The con-
struction of a building for a cot-
ton mill is not like ordinary
structures, they can't be put up
in a day and must be built with
more care than any other build-
ing for manufacturing purposes,
on account of the vast amount- of
vibration in the machinery.
Now let every man, woman and
child in Rusk county put their
shoulders to the wheel and with
one mighty long pull—strong pull
and an all pull together land this,
one of the greatest enterprises
ever inaugurated in this section.
Don't stand back and allow onlv
a few to do all the work when it
is so plain to see the vast bene-
fits to be derived by every citizen
in the county.
There is no hetter investment
for idle capital than in a cotton
mill. We do not say this from
experience, but we have it from
the best informed men in North
and South Carolina, Georgia and
other states. Mr. Cooke on Tues-
day stated that he did not see
why we should not realize from
25 to 35 per cent 011 the invest
ment, and others have informed
us that from 25 to 75 per ct. is be
ing realized by mills in the states
above mentioned on the same
grade of goods that the Rusk
county mill contemplates weav-
ing, 4-1 sheeting, four yards to
the pound.
There is no doubt about sever-
al mills being erected and in
operation in Texas m the next
twelve months and we have no
hesitancy in saying that Hender-
son was the first to take the in-
iatiye in starting them by advo-
cating the same through her
newspapers and should not be
the last in getting a first class
plant into operation. Go to work,
everybody. S. P.
About the Census.
Ed. News:—Having been ap-
pointed census enumerator for
the town of Henderson, including
school corporation, I thought it
might be of interest to the citi-
zens to give a list of the questions
that will have to be propounded
concerning the population. This
will enable them to refresh their
memories and will greatly facili-
tate the work of enumerators,
who have only twenty-six work-
ing days in which to complete
the work. The questions will be
in the following order: Month
and year in which the person was
born—whether single, married,
widowed or divorced. If the
party is a woman she will be
asked the number of children she
h°s born and how many are now
living—still-born children are not
counted. Place of birth of each
person and also place of birth of
father and mother. Occupation
of every person. If a foreigner,
the year in which party immi-
rated to the United States, and
whether naturalized or not The
number u± months employed dur-
ing the year ending June 1, 1900.
Whether can read or write any
language. Whether can speak
lglish. Whether the party
rents or owns the premises oc-
cupied, and if owned, whether
paid for or not. Number of
deaths during past ten years.
There are other questions per-
taining to farming and live-stock,
but the above constitue the bulk
of work to be enumerated. Re-
spectfully, Tom Arnold.

From Jumbo.
Ed. Times:—We have had a
good week for farm work.
Mr. E- M. Hudman is very ill
with la grippe or pneumonia, bnt
we hope that he may soon recover.
Mr. W. D. Smith of Henderson
made a trip to our burg last week
on business.
We have a yery good Sunday
school now at Jumbo, with Mr. J.
D. Nix as our superintendent.
Bro. Nix makes us a good one, too,
for he takes great delight in Sun-
day school work. We have a good
number of competent teachers,
which I think is the life of a Sun-
day school. How nice and good
it is to see the little boys and girls
and older people as well gather
together every Sunday morning
with good prepared lessons of our
blessed Savior, and there recite and
tell one another what we have
learned of the Bible. How s^xci
it is to hear the boys and girls in
their classes every Sunday morning
talking and commenting on the
lessons, and the good teachers ex-
plaining and giving more informa-
tion on the different subjects,
thereby making the yoke easy and
the burden light.
Miss Lula Smith returned to her
home in Henderson after spending
several weeks with her sister, Mrs.
Frank Thompson of this place.
