well as in any other business unatr
taking, but perseverance will ov^r-
j come the losses and there is always
another opportunity.
This tendency on the part of so
many people to move is not only re-
sponsible for so many failures on fhe
farm, but it also contributes largely
to the neglect of the roads and
bridges, the failure to maintain high-
class schools and churches, and i's
responsible for much that is discour-
aging in farm life.
. It is also true that the man who
knows that he is only going to be on
a farm for a short time will not try
to build it up. He neglects the
fences, the houses, lets the stock
run down and in many ways con-
tributes to farm life failure.

Packard, Mr. Buick and Mr. Saxon,
and other esteemed fellow country-
men to the north of us, but we can
raise mule colts and Jersey «bulls and
get there somehow, even though it
be at a lower rate of speed.
True it may be, that our women
folks may have to suspend their suf-
frhgette convocations for a brief
spell and resume the monotonous
business of looking after the babies
and knitting socks for the men—but
this is the way they used to do and
they managed to live through it.
True it may be, that our ricfti Dad’s
won't have quite as much money to
spend on their boys in the way of
Piedmont cigarettes, patent leather
shoes, and ice cream clothes, and it
may even be possible that the boy Governor Colquitt thn?atens to

and practically control the commerce
of South America.
One word in conclusion and this is
with reference to our merchants and
bankers. The only criticism I have
for either is tha*t they have been too
good to the people. All this talk to
the contrary is nonsense and is in-
gratitude and the man who indulges
in it will wake up before this thiug
is over to the fact that 1m has beer
making a fool of himself.*
Let's get down to brass tacks—ad-
just ourselves to the new condition-
turn our faces to the rising sun—get
busy!

OCTOBER 30 IN HISTORY.
1739—England declared war against
Spain.
1803—President Jefferson authorized
by congress to take possession
of .the Louisiana territory.
1818—Fisheries agreement signed be*
tween Great Britain and Unit-
ed States.
1862—General Rosecrans assumed
command of the army of the

1864—Treaty of Vienna signed;
peace between Austria, Prus-

support of tbe pope.
1881—Irish Land league suppressed.
1894—Prince Hohenlohe appointed
German chancellor.
Over in Georgia there lives a
man, Wright Willingham, president
of the Rome chamber of commerce.
And" he is an optimist. He can see i
no danger to the south from the pres-
ent eastern war conditions, and he
sounds a ringing call to the people
of the south to quit whining, and to
get busy. In many respects it is a

For more than one hundred years
the United States have made the
proud boast that this country could
live regardless of any exigencies that
might exist in other parts of the
world; that this country, bounded as
it is on the one hand by the Pacific
ocean and on the other by the Atlan-
tic, separated thousands of miles
from the ' Yellow Peril;’’ on the oth-
er hand separated thousands of miles
from the heterogenous elements of
Continental Europe;—the rest of the
hum and cider—but that is the way
they used to do in the old days and
some of them managed to live
through it.
True it may be, that the insincere
politician who has been feeding the
“dear people” on glitting generalities
and pleasant platitudes may be call-

THE TENANT AS A MOVEjl.
Abput this time of the yeij^ and
every year there is a general shakfc

country, and many invariably hunt a

ate on'the plan, seemingly, that since
they did not make a very brilliant
success where they were there must
be better places. The Herald knows
that advice is the cheapest thing in
the world amEthat it usually does not
amount to much, but it cannot re-
frain from saying here apd now that
It believes ninety-nine out of every
hundred men who move about from
fartn to farm or from county to
county make a mistake. This is
true because it is practically impos-
sible for a fanner to build up a pay-
ing plant in any one year, and to su<v
ceed he must stay tied to a proposi-
tion. No business man could suc-
ceed if be was continually moving
about and hunting a new location
every time conditions did not look
■good to him.
To establish a paying farm is a
good deal like any other enterprise;
it takes time and energy and brains
to build it up. .And the Herald be-
lieves that any man with the proper
intelligence and who is willing to
put the energy into his work can
succeed on a farm. It is to be ex-
pected that here and there and now
and then every man will fail in some
measure to get the results he an’ici-
pated. ‘This is true on the farm as

us, going around like a mangy dog,
whining about the “war.” You can
hardly get an audience with a man
on any other subject and nine-tenths
of the people seem to be under the
