The most conclusive vindication of
the policy of Gov. Crittenden of Mis-
souri, in dealing with the outlaw James

the Frank James who, after the career
of Jesse WAS ended in the cottage in
the outskirts of st. Joseph, regp tered a
mighty oath that he would devote the
balance of his life to avenging the kill
ing of Jesse by the Ford brothers, and
VINO would not stop in his course Of
revenge until the governor Of Missouri
had been brought 20 a reckoning for
the responsibility in that affair. The

draw q distintion between an act of
bravery and butchery, between the

should enable Frank James to keep

Push.

OF all the elements OF success "push"
is the most important. Wealth nor
station nor education nor talents alone
make our success secure. Back of
these and all other comm endable ele
ments Of character there must be push
to drive them to distinction. 1t has al
ways been SO. Note the lives and
deeds of the heroes and worthies of the
past, and invariably they were gifted
with push. 1t is more decidedly the
case now than ever before in the worlds
history. All the phenomena of life
come in rapid succession. Life is a
race at break. neck speed. We live in
a busting, hurrying age. We must
push or be left far behind. If we have
this royal gift of push, no obstacles will
prove too great to be overcome. Our
most prominent men are men of push
who have advanced from low positions
by overcoming ignorance, poverty and
obscurity. Not more than half of US
can reasonably nope to be Presidents.
Not quite-all OF us can be railroad
higher and more honorable positions
we can be successful farmers. We
may never be able to stand among the
august assembly of congressman and
make speeches of interminable length,
but we can hope to raise forty bushels
of wheat to the acre, exhibit the best
stock at The county fair, and be regard
ed as honest, upright, industrious, use
tul citizens.
To be good farmer is no mean dis
tinction. 1t is certainly moro honor,
able than to be called a poor one. To
be successful farmer the man must
be energetic, thorough and decided.
He must drive his work ahead of him,
and do it well. He will not be satisfied
with halfway m easures. He will push
forward in all that pertains to the vel
fare of his neighborhood. He will be
progressive, public spirited, will favor
real provements, adopt best meth
DDS, carry through what he undertakes,
