TUESDAY JUNE 12 1906.
PATRONIZE HOME INDUSTRIES .
It sometimes happens that one
thinks he can get more for his
money abroad than he can at home
but this a mistake. The stocks of
goods in Amarillo are large enough
and competition is great enough to
give the purchaser as much in
quantity and quality for his money
as any where else. The traveling
retail salesmenjthat swoop down on
the town every so often generally
sell adulaerated trash. They know
a certain percentage of the people
'are easily gulled and they look for
that class to palm off cheap stuff
at several times its value. They
carry a line of goods that no home
merchant will handle. They may
have one genuine article that they
will sell at cost to induce the pur-
chaser to take a half dozen spuri-
ous articles. It sometimes hap-
pens that a printing job is sent to
Dallas or St. Louis under the im-
pression that there is an art and
skill in the business there that can-
not be had at home. Amarillo has
as highly paid and as competent
printers as modern and complete
printing machinery as any place.
A big foreign printing concern
sometimes to break the ice will
make a cost price on a small bill
expecting to make it up on some
other jcb but the general run of
prices at home as is as low
and reasonable anywhere else.
This being the case it should be
kept in mind that the more of our
trading we do with each other the
better for all.
It is true some things ara cheap-
er in the East than at home.
Among those things is interest on
money. Yet it does not pav and it
is not good policy to leave home
to borrow money because the bene-
fit of doing business one with the
other at home where our interests
lie and where all are benefitted by
the increase in business and build-
ing up the country more than
compensates for the occasional
bargain we think we see abroad.

Iy. Caldwell is copied in full by the

editor is Louis F. Tost author of
the recent popular book "Kthics of
Democracy" and whom Mr. Bryan
pronounces the highest Democratic
authority in America.

Job seems to ba conceded the hon-
or of being the world's model in
patience and resignation to the in-
evitable. But we must remember
that Job lived 'way back when peo-
ple lead the simple life. If he had
lived in our time his patience
might have undergone a more try-
ing ordeal. Suppose for instance
he were with us and went to a
theater and had to do the dodging
peeking act around some piece of
altitudinous headgear in order to
get a glimpse of the stage where
would his patience have landed?

error in a late issue concerning the
number of terms Senator Decker
has served in the state senate. He
has only served one term in the
state senate instead of four as
stated in the Herald and two terms
in the lower house. There is no
disposition in the Herald to do
Senator Decker an injustice and
we assure him and his friends that
our political editor will not here-
after mix drinks and will hew to
the line on political history.
The state conventions show that
Bryan will sweep the country for
the democratic nomination in 1908.
Roosevelt has stated that he will
not accept the republican nomina-
tion for another term and the wise
republicans say that he is the only
man in their party that can defeat
Bryan. Just what the republicans
are going to do with the situation
we willl be better prepared to say
two years hence.
Dick Bowman seems to be com-
ing down the home stretch for the
legislature several lengths in the

man from Moore county whom
Richard recognizes as too supple
to take any chances with.
The Herald is installing its plant
that will take care of a daily paper
as fast as possible. Our Hoe Per-

and the linotype about the same

shipment over which we have no
control. It is our intention to start
right and keep right after starting.
We have an abiding faith in the
Panhandle people standing ready
to support a daily paper that will
give them the news of the world
from twelve to twenty-four hours
earlier than they now get it.
The city council is locking up

The Rev". Doctor Hamlin's lec-
ture Sunday afternoon was a mast-
erly effort in behalf of a clean life
and a clean city. If every voter
in Amarillo could have heard him a
realization of what the city is carry-
ing on north of the tracks would
be so vivid and awaking in its na-
ture that christian and law abid-
ing citizens would think the stage
of talking has passed and the time
for action had arrived. He por-
trayed in impressive eloquence the
duties of citizenship that seem to
have become obsolete at least
temporarily in Amarillo. The laws
for relief are plain in the state stat-
utes. Trie best and law abiding
people are a3 preponderan in num-
bers as in any other place then
why is it thus? The answer is too
busy too busy! and what is every-
body's business is na-body's busi-
ness. Would it not be a good idea
to take a day off and clean up?

ations might be substituted by slow-
er poisons and thereby pursue a
conservative course towards one of
our leading industries. When about
seven years ago General Miles and
W. R. Hearst told the country that
it was being fed on embalmed meat
Mr. Roosevelt was Vice-President.
He has been president four year
since and is just getting around to
the subject. Why become radical
with the packers now and force
them to cut out at once cancerous
cows choleraed hogs cats dogs
and rats?
Thk candidates for governor
seem to be doing a little hair pull-
ing in some prts of the state.
About the only Nsue among them
is who has done the most towards
pulverizing the giant corporations
that are menacing the common-
wealth. Everybody is against big
corporations now. The people are
going to take a seat on them for a
while and see how it goes. So the
candidates can all be set down as
anti-monopolists and can safely
turn their attention to some other
matters of public concern.
If one of the candidates would
expose our antiquated revenue
law and frame a provision not
dictated by tax dodgers and that
carried into effect the state consti-
tution the Herald would pitch in
and help elect him.

OF CURRENT INTEREST.
In South and West Texas Judge
Bell is easily the favorite and he
developed strength in North Texas
which makes hirri a formidable
competitor there. He is undoubt
edly the choice of the conservative
and business elements and his re
cord as attorney general has made
him strong with all classes but the
race is yet to be run and the finish
alone will positively show the posi-
tions of the contestants at the
finish. San Antonio Express.
The close of the contest will de
velop the fact that Judge Bell is
the choice of the people. There
does not seem to be any doubt now
on that score.
A young lady has been "fired
from a public school faculty in a
North Texas county for requiring
her pupils to recite the Lord's
prayer. Strange why some teach-
ers are not discharged for real
cause. Mineral Wells Index.
The community that will dis-
charge a school teacher for open-
ing school with prayer is hard up
for reason and evidently somewhat
short on piety. In the not very
remote past it was the custom to
open all schools with prayer but
this is a progressive age and the
time may come when it will be the
popular idea to open up with a dog
fight Ft. Worth Telegram.
From all indications the Amarillo
newspaper graveyard is to be ex-
tended and some new monuments
erected within the next few months.
Mrs. R. W. Morgan is launching a
free daily says report. A gentle-
man named Paradise is there with
a new plant and will establish a
semi-weekly while Mr. Boesen of
the Herald announces that he has
bought a $10000 perfecting press
lineotype machine and all the et
ceteras pertaining to a modern and
metropolitan morning newspaper
which will be out soon under the
caption "The Daily Panhandle."
Mr. Boesen will likely make a suc-
cess of his venture. There is a
constantly increasing demand for a
Panhandle daily of the right kind
and with Dlenty of capital it will no
doubt prove a success. Our best
wishes are extended all concerned
but someone will undoubtedly fall
hair to a nice mounment and a
suitable epitaph sooner or later.

The big ranches out in West
Texas are being steadily cut up
and sold in small bodies to the
people who are flocking into that
section in search of homes. The
prediction is now being made that
the time is near at hand when big
ranches in that section of the state
will be so rare as to almost consti-
tute a memory. Fort Worth Tele-
gram. The big ranches were the direct
cause for the settlement of this
section but for years they have
held it back. What holds good for
this section is.'equally true of every
ranching country and it is a dead
lead pipe cinch that no one is cry-
ing over the passing of big ranches.
The Panhandle still has more than
its share of big ranches several
million acres being tied up in only
two or three and it will be years
before they pass entirely into the
hands of the farmer. Even the
owners of these collosal bodies of
land are making every effort to dis-
pose of their holdings at the price
they are worth. This however is
an undertaking of such magnitude
that it can't be done in a day and
the farmer will necessarily be slow
in coming into his own. If the JA
XIT and Matador ranches were to
put their lands on the market at
the same time the Panhandle would
once again see one dollar and land
the end sought would be farther off
than ever. The big ranchman
holds Panhandle at his mercy. If
he turns loose the bottom will fall
out and many will suffer but he
won't turn loose.
