Montgomery Standard: A
man to be successful in business
must keep everla stingly at it.
He must be persistent. He
can't afford to be spasmodic in
his work if he would secure
permanent success. One of the
surest means of building up d
successful business is by adver.
tlsing; in fact, it is seldom in
deed, that any line of business
can wax prosperous without
advertising, And the man that
advertises persistently. not
spasmodically, is the one that
brings ultimate and permanent
success.

pounds this question. If Il man
meets two women on the side
walk and neither makes way
for him should he step off the
walk? If they are true ladies,
if they have been trained up in
youth by parents who were &C
customed to polite usage it
would be just as natural for one
of these ladies to fall behind
the other and permit the
gentleman to pass as it is for
the experienced driver on the
road to keep to the right. If
neither does this it is a clear
case of ignorance and lack of
culture. In such a case the
gentleman will step off the
walk. Should he be an old
gentleman or should the ground
be very muddy there would
probably be no improperly in
standing still or the walk and
permitting the ladies to pass.
In that event they would no
doubt form in single file and
pass him with their head and
noses well up.-Ex.

Ever since the deluge of eloquence as
to trusts and their vile desire to shut
down the Starch Works, Cereal Mills
and Packing interests at this place,
poured into the ears of populists and
discontents September 26, 19O0-at the
court house in Nebraska City-by that
quartet of megaphonic orators, Bryan,
j. Ham Lewis, Blarney Smythe and
odorous Oldham-the people who pay
taxes have wanted more trusts to locate,
spread their establishments and incu-

Col. Charles Morton Of the regular
army, in 1898, at Arbor Lodge described
the valor, good Judgment and efficiency
of Theodore Roosevelt as soldier at
San Juan.
Returning from Cuba, Col. Roosevelt
was elected Governor of New York and
as the executive of that great state did
many good things to elevate the charac-
ter of, and make more efficient, the
public service. He was there as else
where an honest, able, fearless patriot.
Before his term had expired as chief
executive of the Empire state, he was
against his desires and in spite of his
protestations nominated Vice-President
Of the United States. And now the
Mysteriarch of the universe, whose
ways are those of omniscience and
omnipotence, gives Theodore Roosevelt
the Presidency of the United States, ,and
makes him trustee for the peace, pros
perity and happiness Of a republic of
seventy five millions Of people.
There need be no fear. The man
who in all civil and military positions
has so far discharged with fearless fidel-
ity every duty, will not fail us now. He
will prove himself an honest, efficient,
just and righteous President. God pro-
