The business men of Palestine are
in a good humor today for seldom in
the history of the city have they
done such a business as they did on
Saturday and again today It was
marvelous the amount of money
spent in this good old town Satur-
day Everybody was working to full
capacity and still it seemed the
trade could not be handled It was
undoubtedly one of the best paydays

posed and denounced
WORTH NOTING
cven segn ln PaJesUnev rhe secret Pal jne sjol u ness now
of the business Is in the fact
great
that everybody who will work is busy
at this time and the people have
money to spend The future too Is
promising The business outlook Is
good for the future The mechanics
are promised a prosperous year and
the crop outlook Is good at this time
The Herald speaking for itself feels
good over the situation arid believes
this is going to be a banner year in
all lines of business
POLITICIAN OR MAN
The last bit of evidence needed to
prove that the president Js after all
more of a politician than a man was
afforded In his Man With the Muck-
Rake speech delivered In Washing-
ton last Saturday The presidents
resentment of the attacks made by
the press and public wi iters of the
day is Illtimed at a moment when so
much rottenness has been exposed by
these agencies It would have been
more like the strenuous Roosevelt
for him to have applauded the wotk
of these men who are doing much to
awaken a public Interest in public
matters and who are exposing fraud
and lauding virtue in public lire
That he has not done so proves that
after all he is more a politician than
a man and that his partys future is
greater to lilm than the countrys
good
To deny at this time that Mirh men
as Law sail Phillips Folk Hadley and
many others are doing a great service
for the country is absurd In the face
of facts The very Tact that the cor-
rupt element In the national life is
on the run Is pioof positive or the
service these men are rendeilng No
honest man lias hud occasion to cr >
out against the exposures unless it
be for political reasons No man
whose record In ofllce Is clean lias
been besmeared by the exposures
made lint these cxposuics have dis-
tinguished between virtue in office
and corruption
The public mind cannot be driven
from this fact even though the fear-
less men who are making these ex-
posures are decried by politicians
Without Lawson what would the
country know today or the corruption
in insurance matters Without Folk
and Hadley what would the country
know of the Standard trust except
that It was a highwayman beyond
the Influence of the law Without
Phillips what would the country know
of the senatorial records or the men
who make our laws
The time is at hand when graft
had as well make up Its mind to meet
The following front the Galveston
News is worth thinking over It is
a truth
There was never a country or lo
cality that State Press knows of
which being possessed of natural ad-
vantages did not go to sleep on them
Men seek out countries of great ad-
vantages and having found them
generally think their work in life has
been fulfilled and all they have to do
till they die Is to sit down and wait
for some one to come along and de-
velop such advantages It Is the
same way with towns Men go to
towns which have railroad shops and
the like and then content themselves
with living off the wages of those
who are paid by the railroads The
very best towns in Texas are those
which never had any advantages of a
natural kind over other > towns This
made the citizens enterprising hust-
ling and energetic If a community
wants to build a town it can do It
even in a desert It depends largely
on the pluck of the people Natural
advantages are great things but even
they must have energy and push be-
hind them to be beneficial

It is a well known Tact that Hon

Hogg were the warmest of fi lends
In fact befoic Hogg was taken sick
It was currently retried that he
would take the stump In the interest
of tile candidacy of Campbell We
cannot vouch for the truth or the re-
port but we know that the principles
or tile two men bear a great similar
It and borore the present cnmpxlpc
is over the masses or the people rf

Distinguish Schlitz beer from the common
Other beer may be equal to Schlitz in your
liking But perhaps it is green beer insufficiently
aged and the aftereffect is biliousness
Or it may be impure unfiltered unsterilized
and the aftereffect unhealthful More than half
the cost of our brewing is spent to insure purity
That is how
Ask for the Brewery Bottling
Common beer is sometimes substituted for Schlitz
To avoid being imposed upon see that the cork or croion is branded
important
we deem
it
