FRIDAY. JUNE 29 1906.
How Ions are we going to toler-
ate that which is marring the fair
name of our city? Is it not time
some measure was taken by our
"city fathers" toward removing this
curse? If we have an ordinance
controlling such a nuisance as ex-
ists on the. north side then by all
means let us see that it is enforced.
If no such ordinance does exist
then we should lose no time in fram-
ing one. The question with us is
how long are we to be compelled to
endure its existence.
Will A. Miller Jr. is proving
himself a modern and up-to-date
mayor by the steps he is taking in
connection with sidewalks tree
planting .etc. An able and public
spirited council is at his back. The
people of Amarillo may congratu-
late themselves upon the wisdom
they displayed in placing the city
government in hands that are cap-
able of taking care of the public
needs of a city whose rapid advanc-
in commercial imporiance and pop:
ulation is exciting the wonder of
f.he country.
The college presidents and pro-
fessors who hold forth in institu-
tions endowed by trust magnates
have been very prolific this year in
their baccalaureate sermons and
commencement addresses in at-
tacking the aggressive policy of
President Rooselt in going after a
few trusts. A college professor
outside of a class room as a rule
knows as little as an Indian and
when one of them turns statesman
under orders from his employers he
presents a spectacle as grotesque
as he is harmless
The July Cosmopolitan contains
an arraignment of Senator Bailey
by David Graham Phillips. He
charges the Senator with being the
right hand bower of a coterie of
trust magnates who opened their
coffers to him in exchange for serv-
ices inconsistent in a great tribune
of the people. Mr. Bailey is a can-
didate for re-election and since he
has been indicted by one so emi-
nent in public affairs it would be
very becoming in him to move to
leave to the people of the whole
state to select whom they want as
senator and not to a state legisla-
ture that 60 often does things that
are not complimentary to the wis-
dom and integrity of the legislators.
That there will be two Repub-J
lican state tipkets nominated at
Des Moines August 1 is freely pre-
dicted by both factions in the party

is very gleefully contemplated by

Iowa Democrats who never get
within sight of a state office except
when the opposition party is "shot
to pieces."
An anamalons condition prevails.
Governor A. B. Cummins will go
into the state convention with more
than enough instructed delegates
to renominate him for a third term
on the first ballot. But the anti-
Cummins faction whose candidate
for governor is ex-Congressman
George D- Perkins of Sioux City
has captured six out of the eleven
members of the state contral com-
mittee and it is planned by invok-
ing for the first time in this state
the plan of the temporary roll call
to organize the convention and
connt out enough Cummins delega-
tions seating their own contesting
grougs to nominate Perkins. Lafe
Young Young spokesman for the
standpatters has boldly printed the
plan.
Cummins is labeled "Republican"
but has enough statesmanship in
him to make a pretty good Demo-
crat if given a few years in which
to develope. His broad and inde-
pendent views have thrown him
out of harmony with the . leading
state Republican machine politi-
ticians and the trusts and they are
after his scalp. He will not sub-
mit to their dictation even if the
equabble results in electing a Dem-
ocrat governor of Iowa. His back-
bone ability and devotion to princi-
ple have arrayed against him a cor-
rupt yet powerful element of the
Republican party of his state.
"Hello Cotton; how are you?
By the way what do you think of
this letter you wrote in 1681 the
originalof which is now in the arch-
way of the Massachusetts Histor-
ical Society?"
What would Cotton say?
Here is the letter:
"To the Aged and Beloved John
Higginson:
"There be now at sea a shipp
(for our friend Elias Holcroft of
London did advise me by the last
packet that it would be sone time
in August) called the Welcome
which has aboard it a hundred or
more of the hereticks and malig-
nants celled Quakers with William
Penn the scamp at the head of
them. The Ceneral Court has ac-
cordingly given secret orders- to
Master Malachi Haxettof the brig
Porpoise to waylay said Welcome
as near the end of Cod as may be
and make captives of the Penn and
his ungodly crew so that the Lord
may be glorified and not mocked on
the soil of this new country with
the heathen worships of this peo-
ple7. Much spoil may be made by
selling the whole lot to Barbadoes
where slaves fetch good prices in
rumme and sugar and we shall
not only do the Lord great service
by punishing the wicked but shall
make great gayne (gain) for his
ministers and people.
"Yours in the bonds of Christ
''Cotton Mather."
Some say that we are sliding
backward that the world is grow-
ing worse and long for a return of
old time piety. The bond of union
amongChristian denominations and
the toleration' of opinion that has
strengthened and made the cause
of Christ the most potent factor in
ameliorating and bettering mankind
at the present day were woefully

absent in th generation of Cotton
Mather. If he could witness the
harmony and brotherly love of the
hundreds of Christian sects that
are now preaching the gospel over
the world he would wonder how he
turned out to be a savage only a
little over two hundred years ago.
This is only intended as a little
food for thought for the pessimist
who deplores the degeneracy of his
time.
Some Fine Wheat.
The Herald has on exhibition at
its office a fine sample of wheat
which was brought in Wednesday
by R. F. Smith of Washburn and
which is worthy of notice by all
especially those who are in doubt
as to the value of Panhandle soil
for grain raising. The following
letter accompanied the sample and
explains Mr. Smith's method of
planting etc. and is of interest to
all who contemplate grain raising:
Editor Twice-a-Week Herald.
Dear Sir; I herewith present
you with a sample of wheat that I
raised this year near Washburn.
The wheat ws raised from sod
land which I broke to inches deep
last May a year ago. 1 first plant-

ed the land in Kaffir corn using a
two row planter I did got get a
stand of corn so I disked the land
in June with a disk harrow and in
July I put four horses to a 14-inch
sulky plow and broke the land this
time six inches deep. In Septem-
ber I sowed this wheat by hand
and covered it with a disk harrow.
I sowed about one bushel to the
acre let my stock graze it all win-
ter then harrowed it again in April.
Wheat raisers who have. seen my
field tell me that it will yield at
least thirty bushels to the acre. I
only have ten acres in wheat and
while I have been in the Panhandle
for fourteen years this is the first
wheat I haye ever sowed but I as-
sure you it will not be the last. I
am sure that my success and the
good yield is due to the fact that I
b'oke the land very deep at first.

ple with their crop ard the owner's
verdict was that mine was by far
the best. His land is worth $150
