A writer in all educational journal
strikes very forcible truth when
he says: Thirty years ago if a
young man made up his mind to go
to college the first question pro-
pounded to himself was. How can
l earn the money! Wiki the ordin-
airy yourg man of today such ii
question would be, TO whom can
look to get the money!" The
writer's line of thought tends to
show that nowadays too many Of
the growing generation depend al
most entirely on the influence of
friends rather than on their own re-
sources. That is all right to a GER.
tain extent, but one can never make
an indelible impress on the world
by using another as his marking
pot. To have influential friends is
very acceptable, but to be wholly
dependent on them is a mark Of
weakness an energetic young man
should not tolerate.

Street Jars Must Wait.

An interesting supreme court decis-
ion in New York holds that a woman
IN getting of street car must be
given time to gather up her skirts, in
addition to time to step down from
the car platform. 1t is further held
that 1t is the conductors duty to see
that hfr skirts are clear of any car fit
tings or attachments before he starts
the car. If he starts before he assures
himself that they are free he is guilty
of negligence. The court, on the
other hand, does nor consider that a
woman is negligent to travel upon a
car with dress so long that it will be
more than likely to catch upon such
appliances as necessarily extend above
the platform, such as bell plungers,
etc.

pains to make this the best exhibition
in the history of the Association. We
invite not only citizens of our own
County, but the world to compete for
the handsome premiums offered for
the products of the farm and house
hold. The Railroads leading to this
great Fair, will run special trains at
reduced rates during the three big
days of the Fair. The grounds are
in excellent condition, conveniently
located and well equipped to accomo-
date the thousands of annual visitors.
The track has been covered with good
clay soil since last Fair, and is now in
the pink OF condition and lovers of
sport may expect to see the track
record of 2:SI lowered.
The races tor Wednesday will be
2:I7 class pace, 2:27 class trot, 2:2s
class pace, and 2:4o class for county
horses.
Thursday the a:I3 class pace, 2:2o

retary. 4. N. YOST, Secretary.

trio light and talk and dance. He has
the responsibility and the power of a
Secretary, minus some of the annoy
ances. So the fact that Senator Lodge
wants the place which Davis, of
Minnesota, once honored, shows his
sagaclty. But there is an interesting
little story in this connection.
Senator Culiom is the lion IN the
way of the Massachusetts, Senator,
mlld-appearlng and white. .whiskered
lion, but not to be despised for all
that. Senator Frye Of Maine would
be the natural successo; of Davis, but
he is well satisfied with his present
craftsmanship of the Committee on
Commerce. and Shelby M. Cullom is
next in succession. A considerable
number of Republican Senators object
to him partly because they believe
Lodge the better man for the place.
He is backed, however, by several IN
huenlial men of his own party. and
most specially by Senator Hanna.
Now, the question is, can Lodge, with
Roosevelt backing MIN, make Senator
Cullom bulge from his firm position
on Senatorial etiquette and under the
wing of Senator HANNAH 1t is a
political problem, for the future to
solve. Meanwhile, it is said that
Root will be moved over into the place
Of Secretary Hay should the latter
choose to resign. 1t is also said that
Roosevelt will not be candidate for
the Presidency in 1904, but it is too
soon to speculate on that matter.
