Electric Bitters. This medicine

SIDNEY SCHOOL NOTES.


1T has been said that we make
stepping stones of our own lead
selves. The proper meaning OF
the expression, doubtless is that
we reach success by our failures.
Such at uleast' is the meaning
given it by the teachers, students
and patrons Of the Sidney Colleg-
late Institute. Other meaning
than this would certainly cast a
gloom over our future prospects
since the unavoidable postpone
ment Of our entertainment.
While our friends suffered dis
appointment, yet theirs could not
exceed ours, since we had all to
gain, and they nothing to lose.
We regret very much the disap-
pointment, but the action of the
atmospheric elements could not
be controlled, AS the promise Is
to the faithful, we hope to per-
severe and be more successful In
tho future, and hope that our
friends will bear with US, end

WISE SAYINGS.


You are a good one if you es-
cape all the blood-suckers.
Don't fire your gun off before
the enemy comes in sight.
Humanity tries to ease its con-
science by reflecting on its char
table deeds.
Do you not have a remorse OF
conscience after you have wasted
your hard earnings?
Man will prepare for all other
emergencies before that Of the
visit to his 'long home"
A close observer is not by any
means permitted at all times to
look through a kaleidoscope.
You may be mistaken in your
calling-perhaps you were cut
out for a man and a dog stole
your pattern.
The charms that cling to ar
earthly existence rob the soul Of
some of it's sparkling jewels in
the bright beyond.
When a farmer starts for town
he doesn't bother himself about

Proportional representation Is be-
coming a rather live duestion in this!
country. The more the people inves-I
tigate the idea the more favorable I'll
appears What can be more just than
the proposition that each party be rep
resented in congress or elsewhere acl
cording to its voting strength. The
present congress-, for instance, Is over.
whelmingly Republican, Yet ON the
popular vote the Democrats polledl
within half a million as many votes asl
the Republicans. Therefore to proper
" represent the wishes Of the people
congress should be nearly tie. The
Populists. Silver Republicans, Prohi-
bitionists, Nationalist and woman
suffragists would also have represen-
tation according to their proportion OF
the vote cast, Big majorities are al
ways dangerous to political parties
and therefore double danger
GUS to the welfare Of the
whole people. Every congress that
has had big party majority has made
a bad record. Every congress that
has had small majority has done
well. Proportional representation is
bound to become a very live question,
and that in the very near future.
