We are sorry that our good friend
Strong of the Katalla Herald, has such
a feeling of resentment against every
thing bearing a Valdez label. Cheer up.
We hope Katalht will be the termiuu?
of a big railroad system with all that
implies, and that his town will yet be
come a great commercial port, but on
the other hand, just because Vaidez
wants a railroad and desires to get a
little of the interior business, it is
nardly necessary for the Herald to vent
.ts spleen, and use nearly a whole
issue m spite aud vituperation. Let us
all have a railroad, there is room
enough and resources enough.
Get on the other tack brother, get
patriotic, don’t try to puli down, but
help to build up._
Wanted—A compitent housekeeper.
