Right Is Might.

We may speculate on reform. plan how
to prevent crime. grieve over the past. pray
for the future. but what does it all amount
our shoulder to the wheel and do something
for ourselves.
Some one asks, 'What can we do?" 1
answer we can do all that any other man
can do. We can do right. and. if possible,
be content. Doing this would have saved
us in the past-it is the only sure plan for
the future. If right life leads to wealth
we will be prepared to enjoy it; if it leads
to hard work and little pay, sickness and
disappointment, we will have the supreme
satisfaction of clear conscience and of
knowing that we have fought for the right.
A contented mind is worth more than gold
it is the foundation of all true happiness
/ doubt if there be any one that looks back
. over the past more than do. l select some
period of my life where it was mere acci
dent that turned in the. e.direction did. 1
try to convince myself that had 1 gone the
other way all would have been we'll. At
other times. start from some point of the
past, build air castles and grow to be a
happy man surrounded by all that goes to
make life pleasant. But that is all delu-
sion. We are only deceiving ourselves by
thinking that to have changed day or a
week in the past of ten or twenty years
ago would have made all the rest of our life
bright and prosperous. 1t is true a week or
day changed twenty years ago would
8 have thrown our life into different chan
mel. but would it have been any better? 1t
might have been worse, not only for our
selves but for others and for future gener
atiOns. But if at any time in the past we
had resolved to do right in all things, and
be content with the results, our life would
have been better than what it has been.
The determination to do right is the only
thing that will insure safety to those going
out of here. The state agent, friends, and
good men and women may help you, but
there are some things you must do for your
man. do right and be contented. No one
can do these things for you but yourself.
To put in your time grieving over having
been caught and sent here will not help the
matter. 1t may be the gate you had to pass
through to reach the road that leads to a
higher and better life. know it is hard
to convince ones self that all is for the best.
/ have no doubt but there are hundreds of
men in prison to day who think that if they
had not been caught just as they were they
would have succeeded in scheme where
the returns would have been large and the
risks small; and that they would then have
gone away and settled down for life. But
men of experience know that everything
done in the line of dishonesty is an advent.
ure that may lead to death, to being Grip
pied for life or being sent to years of penal
servitude. The man who captured you may
for all you know have saved your life.
Some who have come to look upon life as
hardly worth living may regard this as a
very small favor. But, whatever the pres
lent circumstances. cheer up; there is bright

lost all pride; he goes unwashed for weeks
at time. He seems to care for nothing
but his sheep. of which. as rule. he is
very proud. He may be seen of morning
starting for the range with his long staff
raised high above his head, giving orders
to his sheep and dog like general would
to his soldiers. The dog understands every
command and obeys it, too.
You may sometimes see tackled over the
door of the herder's hut little snatches of
verse which are usually in keeping with his
life and feelings. l once read the following
lines over the door of hut:
"Here l am a herding sheep.
And the sheep are herding me,
For if it wasn't for the sheep
The Lord knows whore I'd be-
Below it was written:
TOOK them south to day. D. bad
water north"
The herder's cabin is never locked for
there is none to rob him. Speak to him on
whatever subject you please, and he will
turn it to sheep herding. He knows moth
ing else. His wages are $40 per month and
ratiOns, which is spent or lost in very
short time when by chance he gets to town.
The cow boys despise him as a man not fit
to be seen in company with. and the sheep
herder looks on the cow boy as being worse
than wolf.
l have been in different parts of the world
and have seen men living some strange and
miserable lives, but the man who makes a
business of herding sheep on the western
PLANES leads, believe. the most wretched
and dreary life of any one on earth.

CROPS at Gambler.

GAMBLER, FLA, May IA heavy rain
fell here yesterday, breaking the long
drought. With the exception Of light show
ers, we have had no good rains since Janu-
airy. The waters are lower than before in
many years and crops of every kind were
suffering. The orange growers have lost a
good deal of their fruit where water plants
were not established. There will be a fair
crop. however, as the rain will prevent fruit
from dropping any more.
The political pot is boiling strong, and the
contest in this county will be a heated one.
The third party advocates are working like
beavers and a strong effort will be made to
carry this county. The unterrifled democ-
racy will contest every inch and lively times
are expected

tory. The test shows that Georgia takes
one-third less rnilk to make q pound of
cheese than does Ohio. Our farm realizes
a pound to ~ pounds OF milk, while Ohio
milk requires eleven pounds of milk to get
one of cheese. The quality Of the cheese is
the best, too, showing that our resources,
when developed, excel all competition.
From present prospects the experiment in
tobacco will prove very successful, At any
rate a barn will be at once erected for a
packing house for the present growing crop
with a capacity to hold double the acreage
they are cultivating this year.
