r ENCOURAGEMENT THAT ARE DULY APPRECIATED.
, Thc' r vjffllfi will doubtless boar us out In the statement that The Her
ald Is not much given to blowing Its own horn. \Ve have never pre
tended to conceal the fact, however, that It pleases us Immensely to
have others say kind things of the paper, and jye frequently reproduce the
kind references that are.made to The Herald by its contemporaries.
And now at the beginning of the new year we are tempted to publish
a letter from a business man^who, In making a remittance, takes occasion
to express hts appreciation of The Herald’s fidelity to the material In
terests of Its city and section. The letter - was probably not written for
publication, but we take the liberty, feeling assured that no harm can
come of It.
Tile letter Is from Mr, S. D. Pickett, the man who, surmounting in
numerable difficulties, has developed the magnificent water power of the
Albany Power & Manufacturing Company, which promises to do so much
for our city.
The spirit o; optimism—the confidence expressed In the
future of Albany by Mr. Smith—lias a ring about It that Is especially
pleasing to The Herald’s ear. This Is the spirit that, we have been trying

I take pleasure In handing you herewith check for $45.25 to covet
.attached bill.
Permit me to thank the management df The Herald for the many
things they have done for our company. I know of no newspaper in any
town or city in the country that is more wide awake to the material de
velopment of the section that It represents, and every Interest in Alba
ny certainly owes your paper Its active support. So far as the Albany
Power & Manufacturing Company is concerned, I beg to say that we
stand ready at all times to co-operate with you In any measure which
will further advance Albany’s progress and prosperity. In my judgment,
the magnificent strides made by the people of Albany within the past
year have been largely due to the Influence of your paper, and as you
have "got the people going” there Is very little doubt as to the future of
the town.
With personal regards to each of you? and best wishes for the con
tinued success of The Herald, I am, Very truly yours,
S. D. PICKETT, President.
A suit for $20,000 or failure to de-'
liver a Federal office in accordance
with a written contract is a highly in
teresting novelty. State Senator An
derson, o! North Carolina, has begun
the suit against the chairman of the
Republican Committee, the Collector
of Internal Revenue at Asheville, and
other persons, who might have given
him an appointment worth $2,000, as
per agreement, but did not, and the
view that a court: will take of a con
tract of this sort •*'ill he entertaining.
Incidentally, it is disclosed that Rol
lins, the chairman, is a son-in-law of
Judge Pritchard, formerly Populist
Senator from North Carolina, appoint
ed judge to compensate him for his
services In the senate to the Republi
can administration. It is alleged that

An Eastern newspaper started a sort
of symposium dealing with the ques
tion. Is Miss Hetty Green, the richest
woman in the world, happy? The
concensus of opinion among those
contributing to the symposium seems
to he that the rich woman is one of
the most miserable of creatures—that
she is not only unhappy with her ac
cumulated millions, but that she
doesn’t even know how to be happy.
Mrs. Green herself refuses to talk
on the subject, and is evidently of
the opinion that hex* happiness or un
happiness Is her own affair.
Pretty Good.
From the Savannah PreB.s.
Albany’s netinebme from her water
department, and electric light plant
was $7,000 for 1905. The Herald
thinks this was pretty good—and so
do we.
GRAFT BY COMMON CONSENT.
This thing we now call graft is be
coming entirely too common and the
people of the country gonovullv con
sent to It In a matter-of-course way
that gives license to it.
The. Hartford Times, in discussing
the popular ovll, well says that "we
cry out graft, hut Ml of us aro con
senting parties to It In one way or
nnothor."
Just so.
Perhaps It Is only In accepting the
package of seeds mailed to us by our
boneficont "Little Father," Uncle
Snm, hut most cif us at some time got
a whiff £>f it, if not "a wlmck at jt."
Even if wo have no share In It. at all
there is, as wo havo said, general con
sent to it. all the time. The man who
draws his sustenanco from govern
ment-national, state, city or town-
oven In the humblest ’capacity, is re
garded by a good many of his fellow-
men ns a superior being, by virtue of
bis place-holding, and consequently ns
one who should enjoy privileges that
others do not have. If he works, eveu
in digging holes in (he streets, he
must never work as many hours, or
for as little pay as the privately em
ployed.
It is said that the opera house In
Columbu^ In which the initial joint
debate between cahdklates Hoke
Smith and Clark Howell is to ho
held will accommodate only about
1,000 people, while four times that
number, it is estimated will want to
hear the speakers. If this debate had
been 1 arranged for at Albany this city
could have furnished an auditorium
of ample proportions to accommodate
the crowd. The splendid auditorium of
the Georgia Chautauqua has never
been taxed to.its full capacity yet, and
there lmve been some great, attrac
tions in it. But we are, not bidding for
a joint debate in Albany between
Democrats. Wo don’t believe any good
can come out of these personal fam
ily quarrels.
The supreme court of the United
States has affirmed the decision of
the Kentucky cou v * of appeals, which
affirmed the action of the circuit
court in refusing to grant a new trial
to James B. Howard, one of the mur

was tried three times, and each time
was couvicted. He n'p wexpresses hope
that PresidentRo^sWelt may ho. in
