The Value of IIerossm,

What's the use being a hero, any
way? l claim that the man who leads
an honest, unobtrusiye life, earning
enough to be comfortable and having
around him those who are near and
dear, gets more out of life in the long
run than one who sacrifices home and
its pleasures for the purpose of engag-
ing in hazardous enterprises simply to
gain renown."
"Oh, pshaw! I'd hate to take such a
prosy view of life. What's the use liv-
ing at all if one has to quit the world at
last without leaving behind him a REG
ord to show future men and women that
he has at least been here? l believe
in heroes. We ought to honor every
man who leaves the beaten paths and
tries to do something to make him
self famous. We ought to keep the
exploits of such men constantly before
our sons, that they may have high
examples to follow. If the world had
no heroes it would soon become intol-
cradle as a place for man to inhabit.
We owe it to ourselves to honor every
hero and to praise his name"

fred the first shot for us in the recent
war with Spain?'

crowd of the same kind working now.
They are picturiug Aguinaldo as .
saint and Il patriot. They are pictur-
ing the government of the United
States as despotism. They are hurl-
ing their imprecations at the president,
at every officer of the cabinet, at every
thing except the soldiers in the ranks.
They hope to make campaign on it
next year, and if they do, they will not
only fail, but they and their children
will be struggling for the next thirty
years to have the infamy of their pres
ent acts forgotten. The American
people are fair people. They love
justice. They are a patriotic people.
They love the flag, and men who coun-
sci them to do anything which looks
like faint upon that flag, and espec-
tally anything which looks like a sur
render or retreat before the armed en-
emies of the United States, will never
be listened to for a moment.-Salt

A Bushes, Like View Of Bud Roads.

every year about $30,0O0OOO is
spent 10 this country in the repairing
of mud roads" says the Chicago Trib-
une. The money is expended to no
purpose, but the farmers keep on pay
ing it out, while refusing to contribute
a larger sum, which If judiciously ex-
pended, would give .hem permanent
roads, which it woulC cost but trifle
to keep in perfect 60 d,tion. Then
they would not have to keep as many
horses as they do now. There would
be less wear and tear of harness, horses
and wagons. The farmers would be
able to get their products to market at
all times, while 1t happens now often
that they cannot market those pre-
ducts when prices are highest because
Of impossible roads. The taxes which
bear hardest on the farmers are those
they unthinkingly impose upon them
selves.

accounting for methods. And
the Capital man by his own

If we were great, in all likelihood

We might saw wood, or drink
ginger tea, or eat flsh, and Jug
gle great thoughts and ponderous
logic, until our brain would be
wasted into nothing, and be-be
like the Capital editors. We
might swell, and grow to fill the
editorial chair to such fitness that
we would have to carry the chair
around with us and make a pub
lie spectacle of ourself, just as the
Capital editor does, for undoubtly
the editor fills the editorial chair
and punches of greatness Iops

to say anything more, for fear
the Capital editor might get real
angry and say something real
naughty, positively awful.

was loaded with choice compli-

it assumes has editorial charge of
this paper. Not only has the
Capital laid in a choice and varie-
gated supply of nice compliments
and fired them at us with delight
full confusion and reckless uncer-
tainty, but it has treasured from
the wisdom of ages choice bits of
fatherly advice which it has con-
ned for our especial benefit and
amusement. And we take this
occasion to inform the CaBilaE
that we are truly thankful, and
hope that such a display of wis
dom and energy will result in no
i'll affects to its brain. We GER
tainly hope that it will not pro-
duce brain fever, nervous pros
tration, or any kindred complaint
which we have heard comes when
the brain is taxed beyond its pow
er Of endurance. and we are sure
