EDITORIAL COMMENTS.
It ia a fact that a big bank account
often gives great weight to a man's
opinion on almost any nubject or
orreaion.

The orginators of some of the less

It is stated as a fact that the new

Someone has just discovered that
any man who has learned to attend
strictly to bis own business and let
other people's alone is a desirable
citizen. In our bumble judgment,
fiis is one of the greatest discoveries
of modern times, and everyone should
t t k- due note of it.
If those men who want a good
has.'hall team in Henderson, ho that
tie- monotony of their long summer
nfi' moons may be broken, had a
ie.vcpa)er on their hands, they
might find sutlicient amusement
without having to go out to the
ba-eball park.

It has recently been decided by a
lenrned judge that when a man gives
a girl a diamond ring as a token of
ei.-Mgement, the ring at once bt-coni.-s
the property of the giil nnd
th u she can not be made to give it
"I' ven if the engagement is later
cille.l off. Here is an opportunity
t' r almost any girljto secure one or
more diamond rings without cost to
lrself and without fear of future
molestation or embarrassment in the
full possession ami enjoyment of the
s'ime. This decision, however just
or unjust it may be to the giver, may
hive the effect of making young men
more cautious and considerate in
the bestowal of such tokens.

Parker, for Jf.'l.OOO, and will move the
building now on the site and erect
a handsome brick building, which he
will use both as an office for himself and

Company.
A Hint to the Wise.
The following is quoted from a
letter written by Mr. .1. L. Currin,
who ia now at Tucson, Arizona, to a
friend in Henderson:
"If railroads and real estate deal
ers would advertise our Southland
and could cause Northern and West
ern farmers to turn Southward, and
spend one-fourth as much for land
and as much for manure as these
people Hpend for water, they could
make a great deal more. The possi
bilities of the South are unlimited."
