RELIGIOUS TRAINING m THE HOME

Writing in the November Define
ator on '''fhe Christian Spirit in
the Homc," Mrs. Theodore w.
Birney says; !.
.'The object of religious training
is to enable the child to recognize
the divine laws and to learn to
obey them. These are not mat
ters of creeds and doctrines, which
vary and bear more or less the
human imprint, hut are the mes
sages that we hear when we listen
to the inner voice. Even ybung
children can be made to UNDER
stand that this voice is not one ws
heat with the physical sense of
hearing, but it is u voice that
speaks to our minds and souls, and
the more earnestly we listen and
long to do its liehtest bidding the
clearer will he its message to us.
Christian life In The home requires
that the child should lie started
right, that he should be given, us
one autilOr expresses 1T. right prl-
mary ideas on the great relations
and duties OF life.' In no way
can he obtain these as well as thru
the conversation and conduct of
his elders. These directly influence
his heart and Imagination. and his
standards of right and wrong are
unconsciously fashioned after the
pattern thus set. If those whit
compose his home circle have higli

thoughtful. his mind and soul will

is TnIs 4 JOKE :

"Last week we inadvertently
left S. p. Hurley's name off the
ticket for sheriff, he being up for
reelection. Up to date Sode has
not been able to arouse enou xh
popular interest in his Office to get
III opposition candidate to rnn
against him: but we guess he will
worry along and we wouldn't he
afraid to bet a nickel's worth of
peanuts on his election"
The above is from the Potter
County News of last weok. There
isn't much in it to reply to-if we
assume that the writer of it was
joking. If he wasn't, and he was
honest, it shows that some editors
don't know as much as other
people. Ii he knew that the
Prohibition party had a candidate
in the field, but didn't want to
give it publicity; then he gave
the thinking iind reasoning portion
of these United States cause and
justification for the existence OF
an independent press-some Pro
hibition, some Socialist, some
Populist &c.

Platform Adopted by Pro,
Co. Convention.

Resolved, That the Prohibition
lists of Potter county hereby dis
claim and repudiate the charge
that they are in politics for the
sake of the offices, and for that
reason have placed In nomination
but three candidates to fill the lead
ing Offices, as representing the
greatest issue before the American
people.
Resolved, That the theory of the
old parties, that county and state
officials have nothing to do with
enforcing prohibitdry laws until
they are furnished with sworn COM
plants, is opposed to and destruc-
tive of good government, and we
declare it to be the purpose of the
Prohibition party, when it is plac-
ed in power, to relieve the indi-
viduai of the necessity of being a
spy and inforrher, III order to far
nish county officers with evidence.
ResolUed, That Potter county,
being situated next to and adjoin-
ing the Cheyenne River Indian
Reservation, needs and demands q
party in power which will at least
aid in enforcing the U. S. statute
against giving or selling liquor to
Indians.

Still it is a fact with which eve

night by two colored men, who were not
identified
a woman in that ncighborhood states
that she saw a tall coiored fellow dressed
in light clothes and low, heavyset col
ored fellow in front of the saloon about
1890 o'clock and that one helped the
other up to the transom Of the front
door, which he pried open and then he
entered the saloon through the space
and let himself down on the inside.
Reaching the floor. he pulled back the
night latch and opened the door. The
other fellow entered and they closed the
door, after which they quietly went
about the work of burglary.
The cash register was broken into by
means Of a Gls, but they found nothing
in it, As the saloon had been burgiarized
a time or two before and 1Ir. Gaughan
had been careful after that to take all
the cash from the saloon al night Tney
stole three watches that had been left
in soak for whisky and took a gallon
OF STANDARD whisky that was in bottles.
