( BOYS WAY TO SUCCESS.


Tho adSitate to enter it. 1t is the
attract pc failure at the last that
of hydr many from pushing on.
mnli mmnnlliicem9re en- are three qualities that
be dev,nsure success in any walk
The are, viz: ability, integrity and
ll'1 mll'n1lghstry; and though, at first
Wag, wm1 int, it might seem as if the
tr;fst of these must be a gift, and
tannot be cultivated, you will
find it is a fact that everybody
has ability, if he only finds out
in what kind Of study or action
it lies. Ability is the power Of
doing a thing well. A boy
should learn early that he can
not have ability in everything;
that is, few boys have a great
deal Of general ability. The
first rule should be that "what-
ever is worth doing at all is
worth doing we'll" A boy who
does his best in whatever he un-
dertakes, will soon find In what
direction his efforts meet with
most marked success; and hav-
ing discovered that, let him bend
all his energies to be first in that
particular branch of study or
work. Better be a tirst-class
carpenter than a fourth-rate
lawyer; a good machinist than a
poor doctor.
But many boys cannot judge
of their ability, and the father,
who should study his sons pc
Guliar temperament and charac-
b5ristics, gives them little
r thought. Don't give it up, be
on the watch to make a good
friend; choose your associates
among those who aim high, not
., to money or social standing,
re5ut as to learning and earnest
Christian living, A boy should
have at least one friend several
wears his senior, who can guide
him as to choice Of what branch
of work or study to set his best
efforts to. He will, by earnest
endeavor, gain ability.
But let him guard well his in
tegrity. This is more than truth
fulness; it is whole-heartedness.
A boy of integrity is like a stout,
staunch ship sailing through the
ocean; the waves may sway her
from side to side, but she re-
mains firm. Boys, make up
your minds to be true. If you
have deceived, say so to your
self and say, "by Gods help I'll
stop short, from this day. |
must earn an honorable name,
and | will" and whatever cost
to yourself, be true; let no tempt
alton spring a leak in your
heart.
Now about industry. A boy
with good ability and Integrity,
even if he is rather lazy and
shiftless, will perhaps get along;
but what opportunities lost for
usefulnessl Boys, remember
that the most successful men
have been the most industrious.
1t is easy to point out some rich
men and say "He began as a
poor boy" Yes, but he worked
hard year in and year out. One
word about this industry. Don't
let it be simply being industri-
Gus to become rich. Aim high
er than riches. Store your mind
with gleanings from the best
writer's, cultivate a taste for
reading, and let the success at
which YOU aim be the approval
of a good conscience. Riches
are not to be despised; but it is
only when they are united to
learning and religion that they
are to be envied.
I wish boys would realize
more that every little event Of
their boyhood is shaping their
future character. The boy who

Farmers of Minnesota should remembe,
that they are indebted to John s. Pillsbury
for having the brass kettle, with the Stacy
filler, inflicted upon them. The farmersland
their friends, after much care and lnvestiga-
ton, perfected bill which would relieve
them of the swindling brass kettle. This
bill was introduced in the house by Hon,
W. M. Campbell, and was known as the
Campbell bill. This bill passed both houses,
much to the alarm and chagrin of the ring.
Gov. Pillsbury, being miller and member
of the Minneapolis Millers' association, was
appealed to for aid. The so-called Stacy
bill, which infiots the kettle on the pro-
Queer and makes the swindle easier
than under the old regime, had al
ready passed the House when the Campbell
bill went to the Governor. Being a moral
coward, Gov. Pillsbury did not dare to veto
the bill direct, but as it protected the farmer
against the miller and wheat buyer he was
exceedingly anxious to see it defeated. It
was then determined that the way out of the
dilemma was to pass the Stacy bill, which
was through the House and pending in the
Senate, and with the influence which the
Governor could exert the Pillsbury family
had the matter their own way. The Stacy
bill was also passed, and the swindling brass
kettle doubly riveted ON the people. With
the two bills before him he had to choose,
and of course signed the Stacy bill and
vetoed the Campbell bill.
1t is well understood that the complaint
against the brass kettle is not the dishonesty
of the little joker itself, but the fact that il
is . device which renders swindliug easy In

THE purchase by the Chicago & North
western Railroad company Of the Sheboygan

more important to the people of Milwaukee
than to those of st. Paul. While it gives Us

to break up the pooling arrangement with
the Milwaukee & St. Paul company. It
may, however, break up the monopoly of the
wheat-carrying trade of the latter. company
to Milwaukee, and thus prove positive BEN

There are hundreds of Republicans in
this vicinity with whom MIR. Pillsbury was
not the first, or the second choice for the
Office of Governor, but State convention,
mainly through the efforts Of the r.. r. ring
of politicians, succeeded in nominating him,
and knowing him to possess a fair standing
among men, with sufficient ability to admin
lister the affairs of the State creditably, they
are disposed to give him generous support.
But they do not recognize in Mr.. Pillsbury
so large share of human wisdom, and
50 much of a monopoly of all the virtues of
the race, as to prompt them to snperhuman
efforts to secure his election, while the men
who were mainly instrumental in putting
him in that position, are exhausting their
fund of maliciousness and billingsgate upon
their own friends, on the same ticket, whom
they regard as just rs pure, and much ADLER
than him who heads it by the merest acci-
dent. And they will not do it either.
If Q few arrogant dictators are to decide
its fate, and are to attempt to designate who
shall be elected, and who defeated, the Peo-
pie will prove omnipotent in such a contest,
and cannot be blamed if the ticket they leave
standing shall prove headless. one. The
people are in no mood to be trified with,
and the times are not propitious for bonn
bastic arrogance Or personal spite.

The consummation of 1.-The sale to the
Chicago & Northwestern railway company
of the entire line of the Sheboygan 8 Fond
du Lac railway, extending from Sheboygan
to Princeton, seventy eight miles, puts an
effectual quietus upon all further. speoula-
ton as to the route that will be selected for
the Northwestern company's proposed air
line connection with Milwaukee from the
Northwest. The purchase just effected set
ties the route definitely in favor of Elroy,
and against Lodi, Madison, and Baraboo.
The Northwestern management were gov
erned by potent reasons in reaching a. con-
clusion, viz: That Elroy, although
equidistant with Lodi and Milwaukee,
afforded more direct or air line
connection with their st. Paul and Dakota
lines j; that the connection can be made at
cost nearly one half less than via Lodi, some
of the outs through the cattle range on the
latter line being estimated by the engineers
as high as %, 900 cubic yards per mile; also,
that the Princeton and Elroy route will af-
ford them direct .communj cation with the
famous Green Lake summer resort, and m
sure q large summer traffic of tourists and
pleasure seekers hereafter which is now di-
verted to other lines. s4
The construction of this Lodi connection
will probably not be commenced before next
spring, and tEen pushed forward to COM
pletion in season to meve the
crops of 1880. When it is I, COM
pleted, Milwaukee will become terminal
point of the two giant corporations Of the
Northwest Chicago & Northwestern and
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul-aud it
is only fair to presume that the hitherto
existing discrimination in freight rates
against our city will cease, and distinct tariffs
be adopted commensurate with the difference
in distance between the two cities. Such an
arrangement will give Milwaukee the handling
of immense quantities of wheat and flour, as
we'll as western, bound freight, that now
passes through Chicago when shipped over
the Chicago & Northwestern. Thus our city
must be greatly benefited by this move on
the part Of the Chicago corporation.
